Ephesians 3:17-19
The plan of the enemy is to seduce us away from the safety of the narrow path of life to gain an advantage to kill, steal, and destroy. He can only succeed if he is able to entice us. He can only entice us if we are carnally minded, which is to say if we resort to... Continue Reading →
To follow Christ our Savior, you must be willing to tread on ground which few have traveled. In fact, you must believe that He can lead you through impossible places unto new life. To follow Christ, you must have the sight that He gives through His spirit, which is different from the sight you are... Continue Reading →
In the Old Testament, the word “humble” is used synonymously with subdue and bring low. So, the admonishment to humble yourself before YAHWEH means to bring yourself under permanent subjection to the authority of GOD to the degree that you disable any further resistance to His commands. In other words, will you totally submit yourself... Continue Reading →

The lifeless terrain of dormant plants, even on sunny days, create a boring canvas of brown in many shades. Cloudy days can cast everything monochrome, just grays and blacks. There are...

A perspective I have been enjoying recently is the idea of the Lord inviting us into His greater story by making us letters read of all men, as Paul writes about in the book of 2 Corinthians. The question is, are we willing to be a chapter in His story (history)? Can He use us... Continue Reading →
The ways of GOD are not the ways of this world, so many of His principles come across as counter intuitive. Like lowering ourselves to the occasion instead of raising ourselves. The scripture says if we humble ourselves before GOD then He will lift us up. When we humble ourselves in acknowledgement that is not... Continue Reading →
In serious business, people often look for you to invest something of yourself to show that you are sincere and committed. No one has been more vested in your life than GOD. You may feel that He has been distant and not very present, but His love is in every bird that sings, every fragrant... Continue Reading →
It is now the season of Spring. It is the season of new growth and development. It is time to bound forward into newness of life. Take a look at Romans 6:1-7: 1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? 2 Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any... Continue Reading →
