Unwrapping Kingdom Benefits
I had the privilege of reading Kingdom Benefits: Advantages of a New Life with Christ by Diane Burke. As someone with a heart for evangelism, I’m thankful this book exists. For the most part, each chapter focuses on a wonderful benefit of a relationship with Jesus. It takes us through relationship, prayer, the Bible, love,…

He’s Coming
But the boat was already a long distance from the land, battered by the waves; for the wind was contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea. Matthew 14:24-25 According to my Bible notes, the fourth watch of the night is between 3 and 6 AM.…

REBIRTH
Isaiah 53 is prophesy about Jesus, the Messiah. It declares powerful truth about what Jesus experienced for us. “He was oppressed and afflicted,Yet He did not open His mouth;Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,So He did not open His mouth.By oppression and judgment He was…

Believe Before You See
Have you been waiting, praying, seeking, and still haven’t seen the promise fulfilled? Has God given you a word, but it feels stuck somewhere between Heaven and Earth?

As Beloved Children
Yesterday, I saw an endearing video. A woman was exercising, and her young daughter was following along. The child, let’s call her Lucy, appeared to be around three years old. As Mom finished a movement and prepared for the next exercise, so did Lucy. Mom positioned a large dumbbell on its side and, watching closely,…

Don’t Lose Hope
Don’t lose hope. The world will try to tell you that miracles are impossible. It will try to force you to conform to its limitations and forget who you’re created to be. It will lie to you, and tell you that wealth, fame, promotions–that next big thing–will satisfy the longing in your heart. It will…

Catching Fire
While reading Acts chapter eight this past Friday, several things stuck out. The book of Acts is rather inspiring: people, filled with the Holy Spirit, following God with complete abandon. They don’t worry about pleasing people. They aren’t stopped by fear of torture or death. They know the truth, and that truth comes flowing out…
