BE STILL

The key to hearing God’s voice is silencing self, the noise of the world’s evil influence, and the secular opinions of those who do not know God. We can best learn to trust that the Holy Spirit is speaking to us when His voice is all we are STILL to hear. How do I recognize…

Holy Spirit Help

The Holy Spirit is our constant Guide and ever present Helper. As Moses did, we respond to our Father’s call and climb the holy mountain to boldly face Him. In prayer, we take the first step to reach the high position that God calls us to. Holy Spirit requires us to trust Him so that…

Whispers

The Holy Spirit is always speaking as we read the Word of God. He is in that subtle “aha” moment as we remember the truth of what God said. His divine guidance comes as He lifts the Word off the page and into our hearts. The Spirit operates within the ordinary rhythms of our thoughts.…

Yield to God

We yield gladly because we are unable to walk worthy. But God’s Holy Spirit is able to deliver us from our own understanding to present us faultless at the throne of grace. Have you ever fussed and complained to God? Being honest with God is the best way to honor Him. “Lord Jesus, I’ve been stuck…

Gift of God

“And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you BELIEVED, you were MARKED in HIM with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit.” Ephesians 1:13 — The eternal gift of God includes the mark of God, the filling of the Holy Spirit. The Jewish…

God’s Will?

Our Father’s will and great pleasure is to give us all that we need! People that make us laugh, people gifted to sing, dance, and folks that play the piano, violin, drums, all for our pleasure. The fullness of life includes laughing with others. An emotion we get to experience in heaven, eternally. Sarah said,…

Royal Privilege

As our heavenly Father’s own adopted Kings kids, we are all privileged to bear the name of Christ, and to represent the House of God as His servants. Jesus gave us His name so that we could represent the House of God, His Kingdom, His Way, His purpose, His Church, for His glory. Ephesians 1:14…

John C Maxwell

John Maxwell’s reflections on “finishing well” resonate deeply with 2 Timothy 4. This letter yet encourages perseverance and faithfulness until the end of one’s journey. At age 80, Maxwell exhorts believers to not mix their faith in Jesus with faith in their successes. We each leave a legacy every time we humbly reflect Jesus, or…

Covenant Joy

We read what Paul wrote to the Galatians, how possible it is for believers within the new covenant to still be held by old beliefs. Let us examine how the old covenant’s spirit of bondage can persist even within the new covenant’s promise of freedom. In the home of Abraham, Ishmael and Isaac are both found.…
