Do What Is Honorable… When living in sin (separated from God) dishonor becomes a way of life. There is no honor among thieves and there is no honor to oneself when the enemy is making all the decisions and telling us what is “right and wrong”. The moral compass of Jesus Christ and the guidance from the Holy Spirit are out the door. When one begins to bow to another person, and does not place Jesus Christ above all else, the corruption / brokenness takes on a different view altogether.…

Chief Cornerstone… As we stumble and fall throughout this life we are continually getting closer to and separating from God. The goal should be in our “moving closer and separating from God” the goal should be to increase our closeness with God and to shorten our time separated from God. We should begin experiencing much more time closer to God than separated from God while at the same time the “flare ups” should continually be fewer and fewer. If there is malevolence in our disobedience, well, that brings up a…

Obedience and “Why” Questions Why me, Lord? Why, Lord, have you done “X” to my family? Getting to the source, the root, of these questions is how these questions, before God, get answered. In the search, it will be revealed that the real questions are not “why” questions, but altogether different questions that are based on Truth. And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried out to the Lord because of the Midianites, that the Lord sent a prophet to the children of Israel, who said to…

Expect The Lord… Is it important that we expect the Lord to answer our prayers? What does it mean to expect the Lord to be present in our life – really, truly present? Do we expect to gaze upon the Lords beauty and ask Him questions? Will the Lord strengthen us as we wait for Him? Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”…

Obeying God Versus Obeying Man At age 5 or 6 on Sunday morning, for reasons that are currently unknown, the Baptist church, approximately 5 blocks away, was calling in such a way that it was impossible not to attend the early service. To this day it’s still like a splinter in the mind that sparks thought. “What does God want me to know about this situation?” “What does God want me to do about this situation?” Last night, while listening to a lecture on identity, the situation described above stormed…

Sin – Separation From God We are all, 100% of us, sinners. There is no one person on planet earth that is without sin. This means there is no one person that at some point in their life has been separated from God. Just recently in the U.S., all across the land, there was a decree that people would isolate in place, they would stay home and not co-mingle with others. In some places it became a crime to drive your car to another home that you owned, fishing out…

Jesus Loves Us All… We don’t have to ask for His love, it is offered freely. God’s love fills us when man plants a seed in a woman and life begins. At the moment when the seed fertilizes the egg God fills us, all of us, with His love, with His heart, with His mind and with His soul. As soon as we arrive outside the mothers womb we begin to hear the enemy. Wha’t amazing is how Jesus Christ spells out, clearly, who God loves and who God doesn’t…
