Letting God In
Mark 6:45-51 is an illustration of how we sometimes are when it comes to seeking God for help. While reading this the other day, I noticed that verse 45 said that Jesus made the disciples get into the boat. Why would Jesus have to make them get on the boat? We later learn that the [...]
Birds of a Feather Part 2 of 2
Let’s not forget that our mission is to win souls to Christ. This may cause us to have to go where non-believers are. Jesus sat and ate with sinners. But, He didn’t just hang out with them. His purpose was to minister to them. In Matthew 9:11, when Jesus was eating with the tax collectors and [...]
Birds of a Feather Part 1 of 2
When we are trying to accomplish something, we want to get around people that are striving for the same things we are striving for. Just getting away from a negative environment can change the way you look at things.
When It Matters The Most
It’s easy to get fired up about God and about obeying His word when we are in church. The music’s playing, the Spirit is flowing and the word is right. But I believe the zeal matters the most when we are in our midnight hours, it’s down to just and us and God, and we have [...]

When something is still bothering me after I’ve given it to God, I replace that thought with a promise from God’s word or give Him praise for coming through for me.
Throwing it Out Part 1 of 3
Sometimes, we don’t realize how strong doubt can be. As a Christian, I know that when I ask God for something I am to believe that He will do it. But sometimes, it can be easier said than done. When we’ve got a big problem or an issue on our hands, it can be hard [...]
Suffering
Lately, I have been praying for God to help me do better in several areas of my life and in my walk with Him. Since praying that prayer, I’ve been hearing more teachings that convict my heart in the areas that I’ve prayed about. I have also been tested in these areas a little more than before. [...]
He Will Complete It
While reading 1 Thessalonians 5:24 the other day, I felt the Holy Spirit reminding me that I don’t have to be afraid or worry about fulfilling God’s call on my life. You don’t have to worry about fulfilling God’s call on your life either. We can rest assured that it’s one thing on our to-do [...]
Faith Over Fear Part 3 of 3
“I will lift up my eyes to the hills—From whence comes my help?My help comes from the LORD,Who made heaven and earth.” ~Psalm121:1-2
Faith Over Fear Part 2 of 3
Yesterday, we left off talking about how the Holy Spirit can comfort us when we are afraid. The power that comes from the Holy Spirit can also be used to cast out fear. Since the spirit of fear doesn’t come from God, we know that it comes from the enemy. Luke 9:1 says that Jesus gave [...]
