Support for the Battles of Life

There are times in life when the enemy wears us down. The battle becomes too much and it seems evil will prevail. By ourselves we grow weary from the fight. Yet it is not our battle to fight alone. Exodus 17:8-12 gives us a great image of how to fight against the enemies we face. […]

What Are You Holding Back?

What does it mean to give it all to God, to obey all he asks you to do? There may be things we are not aware of that we place above God. In Genesis 22, Abraham is tested to see if he placed above God one thing he holds near and dear to his heart. […]

The Eternal Anchor

There are many things in this life we can hold onto for security. Yet when the storms of life hit us with stress and trauma, it has a way of sifting out what has lasting surety. The things of this world are no match to the eternal presence of God in our life. He is […]

The Insignificant Significant Details

I am always amazed at how God links things together, sometimes over years, to achieve His plan. I saw it with the publication of my first book where God brought people into my life, some years earlier, to help me complete the project. We can see this with Esther and how God raised her up […]

God’s presence is evident even when it seems you are surrounded by disbelief and resistance to Him.

Regain Your Spiritual Sight

Witnessing Without a Word

He knew there was something different about the young man. Every task he gave him was done with integrity. It seemed all he touched was successful. This man was different from all his other servants. Now his master saw that the LORD was with him and how the LORD caused all that he did to […]

The Unseen Legacy

What we do in our lifetime can impact generations to come. The choices we make can determine the direction of the lives of our descendants. Only God can see the arch of the fulfillment of His plan across the generations. Our obedience to God is an important part of His plan, even if we can’t […]

The Powerful, Gentle Touch

We get a sense of the powerful yet personal nature of God in Matthew 17. Jesus “took with Him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves (17:1, NASB).” On the mountain Jesus’ “face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light. […]

Called to Act on God’s Provision

When God calls us to complete a task, he will provide all you need to complete that task. We may not see it at the moment he calls us to act, but he wants us to step out in faith and obedience, trusting Him to provide. In 1 Chronicles 28, David assembled all the officials […]
