Trusting In The Silence

“If you believe, you will see the glory of God.” John 11:40 When you are desperate for help and direction, God’s silence can feel disheartening.

Restoring Your Passion

God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7 With enough pressure and disappointments, the passion you have for God can wane.

A Worthy Life

Live a life worthy of the Lord. Colossians 1:10 Friend, do not doubt your worth. Your life is important. The Father created you with love and wisdom for a purpose. And because His Spirit indwells you, what you say and do can have an enormous influence on others. The question is: Are you willing to…

Absolutely Convinced

I know whom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him until that day. 2 Timothy 1:12 Trust God. Believe with every fiber of your being that He will faithfully fulfill His promises. Do not just say, “I hope the Lord will come to…

The Purpose of Brokenness

When He has tried me, I shall come forth as gold. Job 23:10 If you keep experiencing the same type of trial repeatedly, it means the Lord is instructing you. Most likely you have a pattern of thought or behavior that is contrary to who you are as His child and He must bring it…

Eternal Yield
