Can you describe Jesus in such a way that it would make your listener want to meet Him? For me, this is both incredibly difficult and unquestionably simple. And yes, it can be both. I can always use an unending list of adjectives to describe Jesus… but that really doesn’t get to the essence. Part […]

“But a time is coming and is already here when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit [from the heart, the inner self] and in truth; for the Father seeks such people to be His worshipers.” [John 4:23. AMP] Have you discovered worship? To me, it’s different than praise and both are critical
A few months ago I used the following scripture as the focus for a post. I’m using 2 Timothy 1:12 again… but with a different perspective/emphasis. “I am not ashamed; for I know Him [and I am personally acquainted with Him] whom I have believed [with absolute trust and confidence in Him and in the

“I, the Lord, search and examine the mind, I test the heart, To give to each man according to his ways, According to the results of his deeds.” [Jeremiah 17:10, AMP] Search… Examine… Test… the heart. This will validate us in who and what we are and do. But the Father doesn’t just ‘consider’ this

Back in 2011 I wrote a blog post titled: ‘Poverty Mentality’. I sometimes believe we in ’21 are caught in the grip of this thinking. Legitimately, from a standpoint of the world’s standards, it could be argued that this is true. But, for just a moment, think not about the carnal issues of life but

I found it interesting that the ‘Title’ of Romans 8 is stated as: Escape from Bondage in the AMP, The Solution is Life on God’s terms in the MSG, Life in the Spirit in the TLV and ESV, Deliverance from Bondage in the NASP , and Free from Indwelling Sin in the NKJV. Escape, Life,
Is that not a wonderful mindset! I cannot take credit for it. I heard it from Dr. David Jeremiah but I unabashedly share it. For me, this mindset is based in 1 Corinthians 2: 9 (AMP) “just as it is written [in Scripture], “Things which the eye has not seen and the ear has not
