Just a Prayer Away

A couple of weeks ago, my daughter, a friend and I all had similar dreams in a row. In each, there was something precious we had longed for or worked hard for through God’s leading that He did indeed bless us with; but the enemy craftily distracted us so he could break in and stealContinue reading “Just a Prayer Away”

Pray for Fathers

Lord, we ask You today for our fathers, both earthly and spiritual. Bless them abundantly, and draw them all the closer to You. Show them the ways You want to use them for Your glory, and give them courage to step out in those things and to do everything in Your empowering. Lead them toContinue reading “Pray for Fathers”

Family Unity for Ministers

I grew up overseas, as the daughter of missionaries. Many of my MK (missionary kid) friends have excelled in life. They feel at home, no matter where they are in the world, and the Lord uses them in powerful ways. In stark contrast, other MK friends have left the faith and made devastating choices. AfterContinue reading “Family Unity for Ministers”

Rest

My beloved bride, today I’m calling you to rest in Me. Don’t be like the wife who rushes about to please her Husband, doing things I never asked you to do and missing out on the one thing that matters. Luke 10:38-42. Come, sit with Me awhile. Listen to My voice. Hear My heart forContinue reading “Rest”

Leading through Love – Matthew 22:37-40

Satan wants to keep us so busy with even good causes that we forget the eternal thing that matters most: Love. 1 John 4:8. How much we accomplish or how great others think we are won’t amount to anything in the end. Only how well we loved. 1 Corinthians 13. So many marriages, families, teams,Continue reading “Leading through Love – Matthew 22:37-40”

Don’t Give in to Distractions

I had a series of dreams last night. In each one, I was given a precious gift from the Lord. In some dreams, it was something I worked hard for through the Lord’s leading; in others, it was purely a blessing from His hand; and in the last dream, it was something dear to meContinue reading “Don’t Give in to Distractions”

Good News for an Abundant Life

There is only one God. He is the Creator of the Universe, infinite, all-powerful, perfect, holy. He created us because He loves us and wants us to enjoy Him and love others through His love. That is our whole reason for being. But sin, our prideful, selfish thoughts and actions separate us from this holyContinue reading “Good News for an Abundant Life”

Every Nation Under Heaven

In Acts 2, during Pentecost (which we celebrated yesterday), the Spirit came upon the apostles like fire, and they began preaching in the tongues of those gathered there “from every nation under heaven” (Acts 2:5), leading thousands to faith in Christ. Those languages and countries are many of the very places in the world thatContinue reading “Every Nation Under Heaven”

A Third of Us

Did you know that 1/3 of the world has been denied access to the Good News? That’s right. Nearly 2.3 billion people are cut off from hearing Jesus’ name. Most of these live in nations closed off to the Gospel message because of oppressive governments and/or religions. Missionaries are forbidden, Christians are persecuted, and seekersContinue reading “A Third of Us”

Pray for India

Due to the current surge in both Covid and persecution of Christians, let’s pray for India, #10 on the 2021 World Watchlist of most dangerous countries for Christians. Lord, please make a way where there seems to be no way for food and provisions to reach those in need. Make Yourself known to each ofContinue reading “Pray for India”
