“I struggle to always and actually keep in step with the Spirit moment by moment....”
– Francis Chan
BEING A MAN!
Being a real man in this generation means that we don’t allow our past to control our present by coming up with an excuse to hide our mistakes. Instead, we need to accept responsibility for our actions, identify what needs to be corrected, and set about being the men God wants us to be. It’s my contention that when men decide to grow up and get to know God and apply his truths to their...
In The Midst Of Trials...
When Daniel was in the midst of the lion’s den…God was with him. When Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were in the midst of the fiery furnace…God was with them. It would have been perfectly easy for God to immediately transport these saints out of their difficulties, but no, He chose instead to be with them in the midst of their trials. God chose to reveal His power through the trials...
TODAYS MESSAGE? KEEP GOING!!
In the Greek olympic games of old, a unique race was run. The winner was not the runner who finished first — it was the runner who finished with his torch still lit!
There are times in our lives when we feel like we just can’t continue in the race. These are precisely the times when the enemy loves to assault us to the point of breaking and torment us saying “You’ll never make...

ARE YOU IN LOVE?!
Have you ever noticed that when people are in love, they tend to forget everything else? Everything becomes secondary — cars, houses, money — nothing matters — it is all secondary to love. Then, when they fall out of love, as in a divorce, all of a sudden those things mean everything! They argue about all the little meaningless things they ever owned together. Each wants it all for himself.
The...

ARE YOU UNASHAMED?!
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes -Romans 1:16

THERE IS A PURPOSE FOR YOUR ADVERSITY!!
I suppose one of the hardest questions to answer is: “Why do I have to deal with so much adversity?!”
Quite honestly, one of the best answers I’ve ever come across was written by C.S. Lewis in his book, Mere Christianity. Lewis likened God’s use of adversity to walking a dog. If the dog gets its leash wrapped around a pole and tries to continue running forward, he will...
loveandirie asked: I saw your name on a list of rebloggers so I decided to follow you..lol. But I love your blog. I also read your testimony and I just loved it. When I started reading it I just got so excited because I loved the way that God used you. Your testimony gave me the confirmation that God uses us through many different life experiences and i'm glad you used yours to glorify God. You're a...

PRAISE GOD - YOU CANT BE SEPARATED!
One of His greatest promises to us is that nothing can separate us from the love of God. No tribulation or distress we might ever suffer can obliterate the power of His love to carry us through!
This tells me so clearly that I cannot read God’s love for me by my circumstances alone, and that’s often my greatest temptation: “How could a loving God allow this to happen to...

FINISHED PREPARING THIS SERMON
Now i will type up the manuscript, then make a skeleton copy (the basic outline) and pray that God will use me.
WHERE DO YOU COME IN?
My Bible says that “The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.” -James 5:16 So if i could simply ask you all to pray for me, not just ‘like’ this post or say “I’m praying for you”, but actually take about 7...

Are You Going Overboard?
When Peter stepped out of the boat to walk on water – he literally stepped out of the boat! Imagine that! But was Peter going overboard? No, I don’t believe so — he was literally taking a step of faith with his eyes fixed on the Lord!
Often, when we step out in faith – it may appear that we are going overboard, but are we really? Honestly, the question is — “Can you really go...
I HAVE to finish this manuscript for this sermon.
Speaking about the wide road that leads to destruction, and the narrow road that leads to life. (Matt. 7)
Pray for me =)
christmyking asked: If you were being persecuted (and that persecution involved slander, reviling, mocking and insults) for being a Christian, how would respond bravely? I ask because I want to have ways in which to bravely respond when I get persecuted for my faith.

FOLLOW THROUGH!
Knowing He was about to depart, Yeshua (Jesus) left His disciples with a final command: stay in Jerusalem, and wait…for the promise. Of the thousands who had witnessed His miraculous ministry and heard His amazing teaching, and the hundreds that had actually seen Him after the resurrection, we read in Acts that only 120 stayed and tarried until the promise arrived. But these 120 were steadfast....
lifesomeday asked: Just wanted to say that your testimony was the best I've ever heard in my life and that's pretty good seeing as I go to a Christian College in Toronto. Simply, amazing. I don't even have the words.
BE STILL!
In one passage in John, Mary and Martha come running to Jesus, asking Him to heal Lazarus, who was critically ill. Since Lazarus was a good friend of Jesus, I’m sure they were expecting that Jesus would come immediately to his aid. The scripture says, however, that Jesus stayed two more days in the place where He was. It was in those two days that Lazarus died.
It’s so hard to...
Why do Unbelievers see Jesus as a joke? Because...
The way you live your life is the biggest way to evangelize. You can pour 1000 sermons into someones ear but if they look at the way you live and don’t see Jesus reflected in that, how can they come to take him seriously as well?
