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...
We hold the key to peace, yet we can choose to be locked into it, or locked out of it. The choice is ours to behold. You see, the peace of God cannot guard the individual who is anxious about the future or regretful about the past. In other words, when we attempt to move outside of Gods will mentally, as oppose to living in the will of God presently, we are essentially moving ourselves out of liberty. It's a jailbreak from Gods peace--which is the opposite....
If the media is the only thing that’s feeding ya, perhaps that's the reason why life continues to eat-at-ya. Empty calories consumed only produces the consuming of emptiness. You don’t need a professional dietician to tell you that what you put out is a reflection of what you took in. The physical is a manifestation of the spiritual. How we are doing spiritually can be seen by how we are....
Can you hear the tone of my written words? Is it laughable? Applaudable? Audible? It is often the pitch that gives away the feelings of our spoken words, so how can we tell the pitch of our written words? If I were reading my words to you, my body language would help stress a point. My tone would control the flavor of my words. The volume and pauses are speaker’s tools to persuade, so without being able to speak audibly, how can I get you to....
I recently was asked to put together a ‘year in review’ resume for a proposal that a friend of mine was working on. It was not the easiest thing to do given all of the ministry opportunities God has given me since my release from prison. I think it was then, when I was crunching the numbers, that I was truly humbled by the many different outlets God has given me to plant seeds or water existing seeds--about Who He is and what He will do with surrendered hearts. I feel like there is ministry opportunity at every juncture. Recently, my mother.....
