So Abraham waited patiently in faith and succeeded in seeing the promise fulfilled. It is very common for people to swear an oath by something greater than themselves, for the oath will confirm their statements and end all dispute. So in the same way, God wanted to end all doubt and confirm it even more […]
“The Bride asks Jesus, The Bridegroom “I know I have not completely trusted You in my all and everything. It is not that I doubt you, but sometimes I don’t understand Your ways and I question them. There are many times when I feel abandoned and very alone. Today, I feel like a withered rose […]
“For the Lord God is brighter than the brilliance of a sunrise! Wrapping himself around me like a shield, he is so generous with his gifts of grace and glory. Those who walk along his paths with integrity will never lack one thing they need, for he provides it all! O Lord of Heaven’s Armies, […]
“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:10 God With Us On this day we have an Advocate Who is with us. This life season is in crazy flux, creating a maze for us to have to navigate through. […]
I love that in the personal devotion book, The Bridegroom’s Voice, you will walk and listen up for four weeks with God, learning and growing in His Word. And then on the 5th week, you will have a “Selah” where you look back with “heavenly hindsight” at what you have learned and how you can […]
God on Our Side~ God, you’re such a safe and powerful place to find refuge! You’re a proven help in time of trouble— more than enough and always available whenever I need you. 2 So we will never fear even if every structure of support were to crumble away. We will not fear even when […]
If our identity is in our work, rather than Christ, success will go to our heads, and failure will go to our hearts. Timothy Keller Sustain me, my God, according to your promise, and I shall live; do not let my hopes be dashed. Uphold me, and I shall be delivered; I shall always have […]
Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Anointed, the Liberating King, God’s own Son who we have heard is coming into the world. The Voice John 11:27 God’s Servant Warriors Are Unshakeable We Believe In Jesus Christ, We Believe Jesus Christ. We don’t react out of our flesh; we respond out of our […]
Psalm 33:20-22 The Lord alone is our radiant hope and we trust in him with all our hearts. His wrap-around presence will strengthen us. As we trust, we rejoice with an uncontained joy flowing from Yahweh! Let your love and steadfast kindness overshadow us continually, for we trust and we wait upon you! “Be Careful […]
John 3:30 He must increase and I must decrease “The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven’t yet come to the end of themselves. We’re still trying to give orders, and interfering with God’s work within us.” A.W. Tozer Sick Of Yourself? Where are you? […]
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God. As it says in the book of Job, God uses man’s own brilliance to trap him; he stumbles over his own “wisdom” and falls. And again, in the book of Psalms, we are told that the Lord knows full well how the human mind reasons […]
Our enemies today may not be the same as in biblical times, but they are no less real. Consider the threats on the horizon. Some may be national. Others may be more personal. Still they come to surround us and destroy us if they could only get the chance. The reality is there are times […]
Now think of the fig tree. As soon as its twigs get tender and greenish, as soon as it begins to sprout leaves, you know to expect summer. In the same way, when you see the wars and the suffering and the false liberators and the desolations, you will know the Son of Man is […]
Even youths shall faint and be weary, and selected young men shall feebly stumble and fall exhausted; But those who wait for the Lord, who expect, look for, and hope in Him shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up close to God as eagles mount up […]
“The boundless realms of his Father’s universe are Christ’s by prescriptive right. As “heir of all things,” he is the sole proprietor of the vast creation of God, and he has admitted us to claim the whole as ours, by virtue of that deed of joint-heirship which the Lord hath ratified with his chosen people.
