What…What…To Know / To Do Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions, And my sin is always before me. Against You, You only, have I sinned, And done this evil in Your sight— That You may be found just when You speak, And blameless when You judge. Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me. Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts, And in the hidden part You will make me to know…

Shepherd and Pastures…
Shepherd and Pastures… When do we really begin believing the Word of God as written in the Holy Bible? What does God say in our quiet time? What should we ask Him during our quiet time? When should quiet time be? The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want – Psalms 23:1 NKJB One of the most well known phrases, of any kind, the world over. My guess is people in remote areas around the world have heard these words, yet, do people accept them at face value? Jesus…

Overcoming Death People say they believe in Jesus Christ as they are putting on a mask against a virus with a 95+% rate of survival and children under 19 have a survival rate of 99.997%?. People say they believe in Jesus Christ as they move away from coming in contact with another person. People say they believe in Jesus Christ as they refuse to hug someone they have known for years…what are these so-called “believers” afraid of…death? hmmm…curious. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who…

Separate and Unified… What makes us believe we can be separate and unified at the same time? The forces of evil, especially those that have been captured at the highest political levels, have done a marvelous job over the past two decades of creating division among the people. We are now as divided – separated – one from another as we have ever been. With the advent of so-called “social distancing”, lockdowns and gathering places, like churches, restaurants and parks being shut down how much further separated can we be?…
READ MORESerpents and Doves…
Serpents and Doves… “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. ~Matthew 10-16 NKJB This is a tight rope that we are asked to walk. Most of the time we don’t really think of “serpents” as being wise, with the exception of the serpent that visited Eve. The serpent, in the Holy Bible, that visited Eve, was a representative of the devil. Doves, most of us know, are harmless in their nature and not really very bright.…

Hype – The Counterfeit Faith… What brings about faith in our life? How do we increase faith in our lives? Can we “will it” into our lives? Can we sing more worship songs, attend another service on Sunday or Wednesday? No, we can not increase our faith by these means. Hype is the counterfeit to what real faith is… being available, surrender, not striving. Loving God, saying “yes and amen” and moving closer to His will with every breathe. Real faith…Faith comes in one of two ways, either as a…

For The Word That God Speaks Is Sharper… For the Word of God speaks is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. ~Hebrews 4:12 NKJB Our thoughts speaks directly to our heart. Our heart sends messages throughout our soul and then become manifest in our hands. The Holy Spirit, who lives in us, hears this, sees this and knows what is coming. We can either turn to God to help cleanse these vile thoughts that are saturating our soul or we can ignore them and allow these thoughts…

Live Fearlessly in Joy… Diving deeper and deeper into the well of the Living Water reveals much. Leaning into the surface of anything only gives a person scratches, it doesn’t allow for a full-body experience of God. We stopped “leaning in” well over a year ago and began taking deep dives into the Word. This method of drinking in the Living Word is bearing much fruit, while it can be exhausting it is extremely satisfying. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate…

Preach The Word… We are seeing the road move in two directions. One lane is crawling along towards the Light and is seeking fuel for a long journey ahead. Another lane is clogged, moving at lightning speed, however, it will ultimately lead to a dead end. The lanes are clear for all to see and we are allowed to choose how we will travel. The Good News is, those moving at lightning speed, in the clogged lane, can change lanes any time. The same goes for those crawling towards the…
