In the past few weeks leading upContinue reading “Violence in Ecuador”

When to Kill a Pet
Do you have a pet sin you don’t want to let go of? Do you feed and “pet” it with your thoughts? Psalm 66 tells us that if we know there is sin in our hearts but we do nothing about it, we are in grave spiritual danger. If I regard sin and baseness in my heartContinue reading “When to Kill a Pet”
What Made You Give In?
A few days ago, I fell asleep while writing at this Prayer Wall and dreamed that a woman who long had resisted temptation gave up and gave in … all the way. It didn’t happen overnight. The enemy had been chipping away at her faith for years. She fought valiantly at first, believing God’s WordContinue reading “What Made You Give In?”
Yet Another Earthquake Rocks Afghanistan
Yesterday, a 6.3 magnitude quake struck near western Afghanistan’s Herat City, flattening homes that withstood Saturday’s 6.3 and causing all the more damage in districts already devastated.

Deadly Floods in India: Pray for LIFE
More than 100 people are missing and at least 50 have died due to the bursting of a glacial lake, which sent flash floods through several towns in northeastern India’s Sikkim State Wednesday. Home to 2,373 distinct people groups, India is 80% Hindu and 90% unreached with the Gospel. Due to anti-conversion laws and HinduContinue reading “Deadly Floods in India: Pray for LIFE”
Removing Whitewash
What has been keeping you from greater oneness with Christ? Do you know? All of us have sins and wrong thought processes we’ve allowed the enemy to slip into our habitual reactions. It’s easy not to recognize them because they feel so “normal” to us. That’s because the enemy has whitewashed them with lies. SomeContinue reading “Removing Whitewash”
Truth and Wisdom for Our Nation
Lord, so many think themselves wise but are consumed with personal ambition, greed, and slandering and promoting lies. Please tear down every idol, and give those in office and running for office a deep hunger for You, O God. May they seek the only One whose name is both Truth and Wisdom. Awaken them toContinue reading “Truth and Wisdom for Our Nation”
