America’s Future

Hang on to your hats kids! We’re going to see the worst of this so-called ‘elected’ party in full-gore-power! Trump certainly made mouthy mistakes, but his supporters have clearly had enough of politics as usual as they showed up in droves to the Capitol the other day.   Whether Trump said or didn’t say what… Read more »

Warfare!

I had a dream last night, actually more of a nightmare. I was in a home for a prayer meeting. The pastor who was leading it – cut off prayer too early in my opinion. I felt disappointed, but I did not say anything. Later when we all went outside, a little boy walked over… Read more »

Insecurity

Praying this morning, it came to me how we will try to relieve our insecurity (not really aware of it) with what we do (our work or our ministry or for doctors and prescriptions for our physical health), what we have (material, income or family) and what we know (head-knowledge). We all have insecurity until… Read more »

Answered Prayer

Praying this morning – the thought came – that unless we feed on God’s Word, hiding it in us – how will we know how to pray, and if our prayers are heard by God at all. God has said that He answers prayers that are in line with His will. But, we won’t know… Read more »

If I allow God’s kingdom to keep living in me, while I live in this temporal body, then I will have ‘the right’ to live with Christ in a body like His, within God’s eternal kingdom.   If I am “in Christ” I will not be able to live the selfish sinful life and get… Read more »

What now with Joe Biden as our President?

Reading about a godly priest, Jehoiada, who cared for and wisely counseled a very young king Joash in the Law and ways of God – up to the day Jehoiada died, I thought of how Billy Graham – until the day he died faithfully prayed over and counseled all America’s presidents. Then Franklin, his son,… Read more »

REST in the LORD

    There comes the time when AFTER I’ve done all I could to set things right, all that God expects ME to do – that is – that I’ve simply got to rest in the truth that God is in control of all that happens. He says that the nations belong to Him. He… Read more »

Forsaken For Us

Thinking this morning as I was talking to my Father God about what His Son hanging on the cross – meant by saying, “Father, why have You forsaken me?!” So many people don’t understand why God the Father would turn on His own Son making Him go through all that we read in the Bible… Read more »

3 Wrong Motives and Attitudes Condemned by Jesus

Jesus called out three kinds of wrong attitudes/motives in Luke chapter 18. The first one being the self-righteous Christian who says in his/her heart, “God, I thank You that I am not like those people; that I do some good things that they don’t do.”  Then Jesus justifies the sinner who recognizes he’s a sinner… Read more »

Imagining Perfection

Thinking this morning and talking to my Father God, about a different way of living than what we’ve every known, I started to imagine, from what I learn from within His written Word a little of what it might be like. I depend on the indwelling Holy Spirit to guide my imagination. (We have a… Read more »
