Living A Godly Life In A Hostile World - John 17:6-20

This passage from John's Gospel comes from the prayer Jesus prayed for His disciples on the last evening before His arrest. It's a prayer not only for those early disciples but for all those who would become followers of Jesus in the future!

Never Give Up On God - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Paul encourages us in these verses to implement three practices, which will revolutionize our life and keep us focused on the God who is forever faithful. Rejoice always, pray continually and give thanks in all things, for this is God's will for you.

Love's Resolve - 2 John 1

Three themes that are weaved together in John's letter are truth, love and obedience. By believing the truth in Christ and in the Word we are saved. The evidence of our salvation is love and the evidence of love is obedience. Love and obedience are strengthened as we grow in our knowledge of truth. The more we love Jesus who is truth, the more we will love others.

When Little Is Much - John 6:1-11

This passage reminds us, in our seemingly impossible situations, to not focus on what we lack but to look at Who we have. Jesus is in our midst, just as He was in the midst of His disciples and the five thousand hungry men plus many more. He took the little amount of food they had, blessed and multiplied it, all were fed and satisfied, not to mention there were plenty of leftovers. Little is much with God, believe it!

Remaining Fresh, Flexible And Functional - Matthew 4:18-25

Jesus calls us to a life of purpose...a life of accomplishment and fulfillment. A life where we become and remain, for His sake and for His cause. He desires that we live a life of meaning with a sense of mission.

Have Some Guts, Get Off Your Buts -

The Lord committed 100% of His life so that we might be saved and He asks us to be100% committed to Him and His life-saving mission. We will not be able to live that level of commitment  if we stay on our "buts" (excuses). Choose to be courageous, have some guts and watch what God will do in and through you.

Courageous Compassion - Jeremiah 38:1-13

The story of Ebed-Melek can encourage us to stand up for what is right no matter what it may cost us. We can be sure that God will always honor His faithful servants.

Hearing The Voice, Making The Choice - Deuteronomy 30:11-20

In this passage Moses gave God's people two options, you can choose life and blessing or death and destruction. The quality of our life is not determined by the breaks we get in this life but by the choices we make. If we choose Jesus and His ways we will choose life and blessing.

In The Meantime - 2 Kings 2:1-14

Elijah sets the example for us as one who faithfully served and walked with God to the very end. He provides encouragement to those of us who know that when we leave this earthly place, we will one day be in our heavenly home with our Lord. The question is, what are we doing in the meantime? Hopefully, as Elijah, we will resolve to keep serving Him and walking in faith until He takes us home to be with Him.

When Enough Is Enough - 1 Kings 21:17-29

The judgment of God is not something we like or want to hear about. However, it is necessary for us to hear about it and understand God's intention for it. God is righteous and just and because He is He, He must execute His judgment on sin. When God says enough is enough, His purpose is to bring about repentance and restoration.
