Prayer Journey — Where?

Where can I go dear Lord without you? Your words are life giving. Your truth is eternal. Your hope is everlasting. Your Spirit guides me in a world filled with treachery. You are my creator. Each breath I take, each moment of my life is because of you. You have blessed me beyond reason; given […]

Sunday Praise

But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” – John 4:23-24 (NASB)

God Pleaser

“Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4, NASB).” It seems like a simple statement, but how do we delight in the Lord? Isaiah 58:13-14 provides some guidance: “If because of the sabbath, you turn your foot From doing your own pleasure on My holy day, […]

Delegating God’s Statutes and Law

It is one thing to read scripture, to hear God’s command, but a far different thing to live it out. This is what Moses discovered as he led the Israelites out of Egypt. In Exodus 18, Moses’ father-in-law Jethro observes Moses spending the day judging disputes among the Israelites. When Jethro asks why Moses alone […]

Prayer Journey — Clear Vision

The scales cling to their eyes dear Lord, hindering them from seeing you. The scales darken their vision, leaving them without your hope; holding onto false faith in philosophies created by people. They have fallen for an intricate web of lies that poses as the divine, unable to see your glory, your majesty, your strength. […]

Sunday Praise

And every created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying, “To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.” – Revelation 5:13 (NASB)

Opportunity in Trouble

In Luke 21, Jesus talked about the coming persecution for His followers. He pointed out that because they would be brought before kings and governors, they would have an “opportunity for your testimony (verse 12, NASB).” He told his followers not to worry about defending themselves, “for I will give you utterance and wisdom which […]

God’s Yield in the Vineyard of Life

God has placed us in His vineyard to cultivate the vines so they produce fruit. The theme of bearing fruit is repeated throughout the Bible. In Luke 20:9-18, Jesus tells a parable that talks about a man sending one of his servants “so they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard (verse […]

Prayer Journey — Fully Trusting

How can I fully trust you dear God — to walk through life without worry, to be at ease knowing you are in control? The attacks come; problems stalk me; grief envelopes me; fear seizes me. If I am totally immersed in you dear God, what do I have to fear. You are eternal. You […]
