You don’t have to have a “stiff upper lip” when it comes to being real with God… I’ve been thinking a lot about this, the spirit of religion is one that runs rampant. What is the spirit of religion? Jesus defined it in Matthew 15:8: “‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts […]
*satan stood before the Father determined to bring Job’s faith down… As he has done with Job, he does with YOU. What are you going through? Are you standing firm with your feet firmly planted in faith in God’s promises to you? Or are you beginning to waiver in doubt? Now’s NOT the time – […]
There are times in our walk with the Lord where He will bring you into situations that are totally out of the realm of anything you have ever encountered or experienced before. You suddenly find yourself in a situation where you are completely out of your comfort zone. You have no experiences that are similar […]
We live in a world that focuses on the faults and shortcomings of those around us… Grudge holding, is that you? Still holding hurts of years gone past and in doing so, allowing yourself to be held captive to the pain of “their fault!” or “should have, would have, could haves but didn’ts…”: Or maybe […]
Ol” Slewfoot and his minions study you. They know your strengths and most importantly, they know your weaknesses – they know how to push your buttons and trigger thoughts and feelings that can tempt you to act in the flesh instead of in the spirit, this is one reason why it is important to know […]
The accuser stands before God constantly pointing a finger at us. Mocking us, making us wince at the rehashing of the shortcomings we are very much aware of in the vessel of us. Making us want to run and hide as Adam and Eve hid in the garden of Eden. But then steps Jesus forward, […]
I find a notable difference in myself when I allow the things of the world to overpower my time with God… The only way I can describe it, is like this – time out of prayer or out of reading the Word of God (the Bible) is like starving oneself, and in doing so creates […]
The Bible is so consistent. We are to look at it to deal with whatever we experience and go through. There are SO many doubters of His Word and promises. Poor Lot – his wife turned to Him in the midst of his trial and told him “to curse God and die!” Can you imagine? […]
Sometimes Jesus is just calling you to be obedient and walk in love. Oh this can be one of the hardest things He calls us to do! I find myself thinking of Noah quite a bit. Surrounded by people with hardened hearts, full of pride, selfish, know-it-alls, naysayers – yeah, we are called to LOVE […]
When you allow yourself to become sensitive to Holy Spirit, He speaks to you in various of ways, I don’t like to box in how He speaks, because your relationship with God is called a “personal relationship” for a reason – it’s personal. The third figure in our Triune God has been sent to us […]
What an amazing God who loved us enough to bless us with free-will… The ability to choose… What a sacrificial gift to bestow upon those He created in His own image, already knowing that in doing so we would cause Him great pain in choosing to disobey Him… God could have created us with a […]
We are vessels – we need to make sure that what we are filled up with is Holy Spirit. A vessel is filled with something – carries something inside of it. What are you filled up with? Make sure you are a carrier of whatever it is God has intended you to be – seek […]
