Are You Prepared For Battle?
How prepared are YOU for battle? Let's be honest, there WILL BE battles. This is not a negative mindset. Jesus said there WILL BE tests, trials, and tribulations IN THIS LIFE. But also, that HE has OVERCOME THEM ALL. What do we see in the Word that Jesus did in practical terms? We read over [...]
Faith is Believing He Will
"And behold, a leper came to Him, and bowed down before Him saying, 'Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean. And He stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, 'I am willing; be cleansed.' And immediately his leprosy was cleansed." (Matt. 8:2,3) This man knew Jesus HAD THE POWER to change [...]

Coming off the heels of an incredible worship night at church has got me reflecting on the importance of PRAISE. It is right to go to our Father in prayer and make our requests known to Him. The Bible says, "You have not because you ask not." James 4:2 Jesus said, "Whatever you ask in [...]

Are You Praying for Your Church?
I have bowls of what I like to refer to as "nature treasures" around our home. Little things we have picked up when on vacation or just on a walk as a family and I like to date them so we have memories of our many adventures. This sweet little acorn we received at a [...]
