You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Gratitude turns what we have into enough, because it shifts our focus from what’s missing to Who is present. A thankful heart sees God’s hand in both plenty and in pain, and finds peace in His provision. When we practice gratitude, lack loses its grip and contentment takes its place. “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
The hardest aspect of going through adversity is often time. But in time, you will see that the thing that caused you so much agony is the exact same thing that developed you the most spiritually. And the best thing to do in the midst of an affliction isn't to watch the time slowly tick away, but to fix your eyes on Jesus whose grace is sufficient for the day.
God doesn't waste anything from the trail of our lives. He takes the stuff that we think is left behind with no value--the messes, the confusions, and even the devastations--and He fashions it all into something worthy to be used for His glory and our good. Nothing is wasteful to a God who is faithful.
The best thing we can do each day is to position our heart in a place where we can experience God. Whether it be prayer with Him, stillness before Him, or devotions in Him, the heart is strongest when it is bent toward Him.
Grace wasn't granted so we could sin freely. But rather, grace was granted so we could be free of sin. You see, God's grace isn't just an eraser that wipes up our mistakes, but it's also a buffer that keep us from making mistakes. It is out of the glorious grace given to us in Jesus that we can live a life victorious.
Nobody can curse what God has blessed. Consider how a “Merry Christmas” has nothing to do with presents and everything to do with His presence. Again, having a "Merry Christmas" isn't about being liked by the crowd, but it does signify that not even a “King Herod” can take you out. Remember, the devil doesn’t fight us because of where we are; he fights us because....
We may make plans that we think are best, but without God's blessing, those plans are sure to bust. He knows the perfect plans He has for us. Therefore, it would be wise to ask Him for His hand of blessing before we take a step in our own direction. You'd be surprised how willing God is to show you He knows best when you take the time to ask Him for His best
On Labor Day weekend, I’ll begin a new teaching series at Landmark Church titled “The Last Revelation: Countdown To The Kingdom.” For the past several months, I’ve been studying, praying, and seeking the Lord in preparation for what He desires to...
So much bad news in this world, yet so many still reject the Good News of Jesus. From the parlor tricks of politics to the mass murders sponsored by ISIS, when will this world see who Christ is? So many people say they’ll pray for those afflicted by tragedy, but that sympathy can be summed up by one recent interviewers theology. A news reporter asked him this question....
As time goes on, my feet follow along. Stepping into blessings simply because Jesus is my confession. God always knew where He would have me go and He knew exactly what He would have me do. You see, influence isn’t a persuasion; it’s actually a conviction. In other words, “a mans gift makes room for him and brings him before great men” (Proverbs 18:16). So it’s not about impressing those audiences but impacting them. So as that rhyme sails out of me, I am actually on the Cape May-Lewes Ferry returning....
For me personally, I am not posting blogs or pictures for popularity, and I am certainly not doing it for visibility. I try not to post unless there is a purpose behind the content. And that purpose is to point people to Jesus. I don’t want anyone to see me or hear me. I only want to be a telescope that helps bring Jesus into clear view through what you may be going through. So by me sharing the recent anonymous remark....
Did you know that you are too blessed to be stressed? And if you’re going to fill yourself up with anything, it might as well be purpose—not anxiety. Personally, I desire to be a purpose driven man with a purpose filled mind that lives a purpose-centered life. Now that’s a lot of purpose. And all this talk about “purpose” has me thinking about how purposeless my life really....
