You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Light doesn’t argue with darkness, it simply shines into it. And darkness has no defense against even the smallest flame. In the same way, you don’t have to out-shout the culture or win every argument, you just have to out-shine it with Christ in you. "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
You have the Father's undivided attention and He is waiting for you to notice. And not only His attention, but He loves you with an undivided affection and His desire is for you to know this. Friend, you are not overlooked by the One who has overcome.
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....
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...
“A mans gift makes room for him and brings him before great men” (Proverbs 18:16). In other words, blessed is the man who realizes his gift is from God and that God is the one who makes the room for him to stand before great men…or even better-- to stand before children. This past Sunday jumpstarted a series of speaking (and writing) engagements for me, that truly highlights the truth of the above proverb. Having the blessed opportunity to speak about “David and Goliath” to the children’s church at Cape Fellowship in Cape May Court House, really brought a tangible joy to what God has called me to do. Seeing such childlike sincerity.....
Everyone has haters, that’s just the way its been. And everyone’s been a hater, that’s just the way of sin. But once you know the Repudiator of sin, you can begin to love and not hate, and all because of Him. The Christ that rejects sin in a Christ rejecting world is looking to love even haters through a Christ receptive heart! “But I say to you, love your enemies” (Matthew 5:44). So, I proclaim that I love even my haters, the ones that wanted to see me fail. The ones that....
I stand on Christ alone as my foundation. Without Him, all other ground is sinking sand. Quicksand. Thus, I need His legs to stand! I state that, confidently and experientially, to say this: God has been preparing “tables” before me in the presence of my enemies and I am excited for what is to come with such influences. The reality is that none of these opportunities have been afforded to me because of my college degree or athletic pedigree. These past building blocks aren’t the main reasons for my present platforms. I mean they are stepping stones to be leveraged with every influential step I take, but they are.....
I don’t know about you, but I have a hard time sitting back and watching the world around me with its relentless propaganda of trash. If the ways of the world are unapologetically belligerent in putting out their message, then why should I be any less brazen with my conviction. Hence, #iCONVICTION. It’s mine, God gave it to me, so I’m owning it; and with every platform He gives me, I am cloning it. “That’s not the way God would do it,” some may conjecture. Really?
