Don’t Let Mistakes Rule You

This morning the Lord woke me up pointing to all the many ways He invites us to freedom, but we refuse to listen. Has that happened to you? Has someone confronted you on a sin, but you argued in self-defense? Gave all the more excuses for why you need to do that? Blamed someone else?Continue reading “Don’t Let Mistakes Rule You”

Let It Go

What is the biggest obstacle keeping you from being and doing what God has for you right now? As I asked the Lord what He wanted us to pray about today, this is the question He asked me to ask you. What you think is your biggest obstacle may not be. And what you thinkContinue reading “Let It Go”

Oneness

When we go through trials, it’s easy to look around and think, “Why doesn’t she have this problem? Am I the only one going through this?” or “Why does God heal him but not me?” or “Why is my marriage in pieces, and that other couple is so blessed?” The truth is we all haveContinue reading “Oneness”

So, if our mile-high debt has been forgiven entirely, why areContinue reading “Forgive”

Awakening to Jesus

What was your first thought when you woke up this morning? Any of these ring a bell? If we can get in the habit of making Jesus our first thought, before we open our eyes, before we get out of bed, before we think or do anything else — if we can hand Him ourContinue reading “Awakening to Jesus”

Fight the Right Fight

O Lord, if ever there was a time for Your church to rise up and shine, to throw off the bushels we’ve hidden Your light beneath, it is now. Matthew 5:14-16. Give us the mind of Christ to stop our bickering against one another about the things we actually agree upon, and to pray inContinue reading “Fight the Right Fight”

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. But it is not the verses that don’t fit into our agendas. And it’s not the brotherContinue reading “Fight to Follow”
