Ephesians 3:17-19
One of the ways we are held captive by the forces of darkness is by chains and walls we are unaware of. That is the power Satan uses to hold people in prison when the gates have been opened, and to keep people cleaving to death after the chains have been broken. Satan exploits man’s...

My prayer is that we will be one in Spirit and in Truth. To facilitate this, we must not lean unto our own understanding but rather allow the Lord to establish His standards in our hearts. We have been called to new birth, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of... Continue Reading →
I am visiting one of the many foundational principles of the Christian faith which I find is often partially understood: Repentance. John the Baptist was sent before Christ proclaiming, “Repent, and prepare the way for the Lord!” 3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one...

Rebellion against GOD and truth is as the sin of witchcraft because in rebelling from the truth there is a will to craft a different reality based on the pride of self. That act is to say, you want to be your own god or creator. 1 Samuel 15:23 says, “For rebellion is as the... Continue Reading →
51 Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem, 52 and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him. 53 But they did not receive Him, because His face was set for the journey... Continue Reading →
I was riding down the road the other day and I saw a billboard that read, “After you die, you go to meet GOD,” then it was followed by a 1-800 number. My guess is that it was an evangelistic effort to encourage people to live differently today. While the intent is good, it falls... Continue Reading →
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 →
There has been a lot of silence in the church regarding the evils of America. GOD says a key expression of love is correction. If you love America, then don’t let the nation be spoiled by withholding correction. As Christians, we have to be faithful and true to GOD, which is the same as being... Continue Reading →
One of the most difficult things I have seen Christians struggle with is having a healthy level of detachment from this current world. When I say world, I am referring to “world” in the biblical sense of the following verse: 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world,... Continue Reading →
When faced with challenges and difficulties, it is important that our faith and trust remain in GOD. Trusting in GOD looks a lot different than trusting in your own strength. What is known as the “fall of man” occurred when Adam and Eve decided to make a go at life without trusting GOD as life.... Continue Reading →
