Surrendering to God’s Will
“Our Father which art in Heaven, hollowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven…” Matthew 6: 9-13 Have you ever wondered what God’s will for your life is? His will is simply for us to live and maintain His kingdom here on earth. God’s kingdom is distinct and a different way of life. Jesus taught us how to pray for the kingdom to come on earth, how He would work in us, and showed us how to live and work inside the kingdom. When Christ is in you, it is […]
When you just don’t understand…
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not onto your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path”. – Proverbs 3:5 Do you have a difficult time trusting God? Do you worry, fear, or stress about circumstances in your daily life? If you’re having a difficult time trusting God, I want you to understand something.

The way we viewed our earthly father can hinder us from seeing […]
Enter into the Presence of the Lord
“By this I know that you favor and delight in my, because my enemy does not triumph over me.

Nothing can harm me when I am in his presence! Nothing can rob […]
I am Safe During any Storm!
“For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter; in the secret place of His tent will He hide me; He will set me high upon a rock.” – Psalm 27:5 If tomorrow you have a “day of trouble” can you keep your heart fixed on the goodness of the Lord? When you keep your heart fixed steadfastly on His goodness you are able to weather any storm. You will travel safely though the terrible storm just like Noah was kept safe inside the Ark. Think for a moment, what if the Holy Spirit quickened […]
If I had Wings…
“Oh, that I had wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.” Psalm 55:6 The stresses of life can be so overwhelming. I often fall into the discouragement of situations, rather than focus on the One who truly cares for me and is ready to sustain me. Bearing the burden of crushing weight actually gives Christians wings. This may sound like a contradiction in terms, but it is a blessed truth. While enduring a severe trial, David cried, “Oh, that I had wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.” Yet before […]
