The Bridge
Lu.18:1 One day Jesus told his disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never give up.”
It is one thing to be independent, but it is another thing to be free. There are a lot of independent people roaming the streets, but, a lot of them are not free. Read the rest of this entry
This Love
John 20:16 “Mary!” Jesus said. She turned to him and cried out, “Rabboni!” (which is Hebrew for “Teacher”).
Immediately Mary recognized that the person she was speaking to was Jesus, the one she had been looking for. She must have leaped toward him, with arms stretched out to hug Him tightly as she would normally do. Read the rest of this entry
Love Responds
Matt.28: 2 Suddenly there was a great earthquake! For an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled aside the stone, and sat on it. 3 His face shone like lightning, and his clothing was as white as snow. 4 The guards shook with fear when they saw him, and they fell into a dead faint.”
There was confusion in hell, satan and all his demons fell on their face just at the mention of the Name of Jesus. satan grabbed the demon’s throat, “I thought I told you not to mention that name in this place. Read the rest of this entry
Love Unstoppable
Matt. 28:2 Suddenly there was a great earthquake! For an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled aside the stone, and sat on it. 3 His face shone like lightning, and his clothing was as white as snow. 4 The guards shook with fear when they saw him, and they fell into a dead faint.
When you look at that story in John 20:1-20 [please read], it almost does not make sense that Jesus would put so much at stake just to respond to Mary. However, the reason why He would do that is because He is love. Read the rest of this entry
Command + Response
Jn.3:16 “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
The crossroads presents us with three options; the way of the world, the
way of self, or the way of God. The way of the Father is the way of love Read the rest of this entry
Not As Humans
2 Cor.6:7 “…We use the weapons of righteousness in the right hand for attack and the left hand for defense.”
Over the past few weeks, we spent a lot of time laying a foundation and establishing the building blocks to fight and gain victory. Over the next few days we will be looking at the weapons of our warfare. Read the rest of this entry
Cheap Candy
Prov. 18:7 (MSG) “Fools are undone by their big mouths; their souls are crushed by their words. 8 Listening to gossip is like eating cheap candy; do you really want junk like that in your belly?”
You have to make sure that gossip has no place in your life. I strongly believe that not everyone that goes around gossiping is evil; some are, but most of them are just idle and ignorant.
The Source
Ex.3: 2 “…Though the bush was engulfed in flames, it didn’t burn up… 14 God replied to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.”
God knew Moses was going to ask for His Name and God was ready to answer the question. God knows our hearts even before we speak. In fact, the entire burning bush scenario was set up to answer Moses’ question. Read the rest of this entry
The Ten II
Rom.6:16 (ERV) “Surely you know that you become the slaves of whatever you give yourselves to. Anything or anyone you follow will be your master. You can follow sin, or you can obey God. Following sin brings spiritual death, but obeying God makes you right with him.”
Every one of the Ten Commandments introduces a struggle. Every Commandment exposes a battle in us that everyone must wrestle with and that battle can be summed up as “Me or Jesus?” Read the rest of this entry
First Principle
Prov.3:9-10 (TLB) “Honour the Lord by giving him the first part of all your income, and he will fill your barns with wheat and barley and overflow your wine vats with the finest wines”[with emphasis].
The first word in today’s Scripture reference is honour and it is a pointer to where everything should flow from. The truth is that no child can bring consistent honour to his or her father without loving him. Love is what makes a child able to honour the father consistently. Read the rest of this entry
