For those of us who are weary of the fight, who have struggled for so long to grasp something we want so desperately, but that continues to seem just out of reach…. I felt the Lord saying once again, “I see you. I hear you. I know you, My beloved. I know your pain, yourContinue reading “What Faith Is For”

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”
Be Still, and Fight!
What battles are you in right now? Don’t just rise up and fight by lashing out. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6:12 NIV Your brother is not yourContinue reading “Be Still, and Fight!”
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”
Pray for Our Children
Lord, we ask You, please, for our children. Guard their hearts. Watch over them as they play. Keep their minds and eyes and hearts and bodies pure. Don’t let any hurt or harm come to them. Give them a hunger for You, Lord, that drives them to read the Bible; and each time they do,Continue reading “Pray for Our Children”
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”
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”
