Building Oneness with Christ

What does it look like to walk in the Spirit? Galatians 5:16, 25. I’m still learning and growing in this area, but one habit that has helped greatly to position me for more of His flow is to make Jesus my first thought. Before I open my eyes.

Pray for Those Trapped in Strongholds

A stronghold is a habitual sin or negative thought process that has such a “strong hold” on you it controls your responses rather than the Holy Spirit.

What the World Needs Now Is Jesus

Lord, we have chased our own agendas, run over people to push them, only to find we were wrong all along. We have sought what we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty again.

Mankind, He has told you what is good and what it is the Lord requires of you: to act justly, to love faithfulness, and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8 HCSB Lord, awaken us to Your goodness.

Proverbs 3:5-6 – The Surrender Theme

We have a Sovereign One who holds our future in His hands. It’s not the president of a nation or any other governing party, whether evil or good. It’s the God Who loves us.
