Fight to Follow
The more we surrender to Christ and walk as one with Him, the greater resistance we will experience not just from the world, but from within the church. Have you felt it yet? We have a real enemy.

Renouncing Lies, Speaking Truth
Our enemy loves to get us to agree with lies he feeds us contrary to the Word of God. They feel true, but they are not who we are in Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5.

Look in My Eyes
Yesterday, the Lord awakened me to a vision of the bride scrubbing the floor, sweat on her brow. “I see you,” the Lord said to her. He reached out with both hands, and as she took them, He pulled her to her feet to look into His eyes. Don’t be like the wife who runsContinue reading “Look in My Eyes”
What’s Holding You Back?
Let’s leave behind the strongholds that have bound us, and do what it takes to run in the joy of the Spirit’s leading, so we can draw others into His love. A stronghold is a thought process or sin that has such a “strong hold” on you, it controls your reactions rather than the HolyContinue reading “What’s Holding You Back?”
