The Glorification of Busyness

Many of us have fallen into the trap of the glorification of busyness. We have mentally and emotionally made it mean something validating about ourselves if we can accomplish a huge list of things. But then we must quickly activate a way to cope with the stress of being over-scheduled and overwhelmed with seasons of [...]

Peace is Always Available, Will You Choose it?

PEACE is ALWAYS AVAILABLE, Will You CHOOSE It? Jesus said "Peace I leave with you; MY peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do NOT let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful." John 14:27 If Jesus said He ALREADY gave us HIS peace, that [...]

How I know God Doesn’t Take our Loved Ones

The thought that “God took my loved one” is a subtle attempt of the enemy to bring you a thought error that could cause you in your time of grief to pull away from God and His comfort instead of pressing into Him! I think some may feel a false sense of peace because they [...]

We Are Called to Love, Not Judge

We are called to LOVE, not JUDGE. Period. Whenever we find ourselves getting frustrated with someone, it's a clear sign that we've momentarily stepped OUT OF THE LOVE ZONE and into the JUDGMENT ZONE. And the reason it feels so irksome is because it was never how we were created to exist. God IS LOVE. [...]

REST is a NECESSITY, not a LUXURY

Rest is a NECESSITY, not a LUXURY! Remember to take time to PAUSE and REST today! Your body and brain are beautifully complex machines that work together to keep you safe and well. Make sure you are being intentional about caring for yourself as much as you do caring for your work and service to [...]

Why We Don’t Ask God For Faith, but We Feed Our Faith by Hearing

As believers, the Bible tells us that we ALREADY have the God-kind of faith residing in us. We don’t have to ask Him for faith, His faith resides in us whenever we hear the Word. Romans 10:17 "So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of Christ." It is only by hearing the [...]

Do You Want to See an Awakening?

If we desire a great awakening for our world, for our nation, for our church, then WE must become awakened OURSELVES and AWAKENING begins with an ENCOUNTER! "Blessed are those who HUNGER and THIRST after righteousness: for they SHALL BE FILLED!" Matt. 5:6 So, this verse is teaching us that the FILLING is reserved for [...]

The Holy Spirit Leads By PEACE

When a thought brings FEAR, DESPAIR, or PRESSURE, it is NOT from the Lord! Isaiah 55:12 "For you will go out with JOY, and be LED FORTH WITH PEACE". Be assured that the Holy Spirit will always lead you with PEACE. He is a perfect gentleman and He promised to LEAD us, not PROD, or [...]

The Gospel is More Than Enough!

I’m about to kick a “Sacred Cow” but here goes… Anything we try to ADD to the purity of the Gospel will TAINT it! It needs NOTHING ELSE! We don’t need to add “horoscopes”,“manifesting”, “law of attraction”, “meditation”, or the “Enneagram”. It’s God and HIS WORD ALONE that changes people’s lives and SETS THEM FREE! [...]

Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but WHO are YOU?

Acts 19:15 "And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are YOU?" Does the enemy know YOUR name? If you’ve come under attack, rejoice, it means the enemy knows you and you’re advancing something he’s not happy about and he’s pulled out all his ammo! He's running [...]
