Courage to Stand

Mighty Warrior. When the Lord called Gideon that, it felt like a lie. He’d just been caught in the act of hiding his hard-earned wages so the new guys in charge wouldn’t seize everything his family needed to survive. Judges 6:1-12. Aren’t we God’s people? Isn’t this the nation He founded for Himself? How couldContinue reading “Courage to Stand”

Worship and Overcome

When we worship God in the midst of our problems and pain, we bring Him joy, as He fights for us and triumphs over our enemy. 2 Chronicles 20; Isaiah 30:29-32; Psalm 149. 1 Samuel 16:14-23. The enemy flees, as God changes our focus from how big our problems are to how big our GodContinue reading “Worship and Overcome”

Only Hidden in Christ Are We Safe

I had a dream of people walking around with imaginary self-protective “walls” that in reality were just thin lines — a mere thread — not a wall at all. Just like we often do, the people in this dream came on way too strong in each situation, too self-important, too conscious of how they look,Continue reading “Only Hidden in Christ Are We Safe”

Radical Praying

When we opened this Prayer Wall in 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic, God laid on my heart to call His people throughout the world to pray together daily for global awakening. Several months later, I happened upon Christian author/journalist Mike Evans’ claim that in 1986, evangelist David Wilkerson told him: “I see aContinue reading “Radical Praying”

Wisdom in Making Decisions

Lord, give us wisdom, please. As we face difficult decisions, help us not lean on our own understanding, but to seek You in all our ways, letting You direct our paths. Proverbs 3:5-6. We can’t see the future, but You can. You know what’s up ahead and where You’re taking us. Help us surrender allContinue reading “Wisdom in Making Decisions”

Satanist Leader Resigns

Riaan Swiegelaar, co-founder of the South African Satanic Church, resigned from his position in May, shortly after an astounding display of unconditional love by Christians “when I was a monster.” One couple showed him Christ’s love by responding to him with kindness and grace. And just after a radio interview, where the satanic priest announced,Continue reading “Satanist Leader Resigns”

Of Earthly and Heavenly Fathers

It’s easy for us as humans to subconsciously assign God whatever qualities we have encountered in our earthly fathers, whether good or bad. My dad isn’t perfect by any means. But he modeled love so well that it’s easy for me to run to my Heavenly Father whenever I’m hurting. I know He is alwaysContinue reading “Of Earthly and Heavenly Fathers”

Prayer for Anxious Hearts

Lord, be our Shield. Block fear from invading our minds, hearts, and homes. When anxiety, worry, and panic overcome us, we have trouble trusting in Your Sovereignty and Your heart of Love. We try to take control, but everything’s so out of control, especially our racing hearts and spiraling thoughts. Rescue us, O Lord, fromContinue reading “Prayer for Anxious Hearts”

Today, let’s pray together Psalm 91 over our families…. We choose to live in Your shelter, O Most High, to abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
