God’s Will: Good, Pleasing, and Perfect

Mighty to Save: Jesus, Our Only Hope

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-His good, pleasing and perfect will.” (Romans 12:2 NIV) God’s will  I can see a conveyor belt with constant motion between the heart and mind. Thoughts, desires, knowledge, and wisdom pull in their direction. When we become a christian, we are babes in Christ. A new approach to life exist in God’s will. The metaphor used in the Bible during this time is like sipping milk. Up until this time […]

Fire Removes Impurities

Fire Removes Impurities

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33 NIV) Fire I underlined this verse during my days in the big, hot, pot of fire, I now call refinement. Oh! How these days can be dreary. Your life feels like it hit a dead end. God would never have us experience situations against our own will. Would He? Trust me, I have been here.

No, I beat my body and make it a slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. (1 Corinthians 9: 26,27 NIV) Running It’s Motivating Monday! These verses speak volumes to me. Of course, I did just finish off a piece of key lime pie. However, in my own life this is a serious issue. The issue of taking control of our bodies. For me it can be food, for […]

Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it out to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. (Philippians 1:6 NIV) A poem When circumstances swirl around… news has us in a stare. Take this step of faith, if you’ll dare. Little ones sing “Trust and obey.” Adults sing, “Power in the Blood.” Dead bones rise from decay. Teens cheer somber days are gone. The light draws us near. His radience glistens about. Warmth of His power, His incredible power. A gift we must seek. Seek til we find… Jesus will be on […]

Jesus: The Most Powerful Name

God- In Three Persons, Blessed Trinity

Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.” (Matthew 12: 25 NIV) Shocked Are you shocked as I am with actual words spoken in the news this week? It is one thing to know something in our minds. It is another thing when it happens, we can hardly believe the blaze of fire. We can read and study the Word of God, yet to see events take place is surreal. It makes me want to shout to the entire world…REPENT! How […]
