God Is Actively Working Behind The Scenes

Mar 30, 2023 | Everyday Life, God's Care, Gospel And Grace, Spiritual Power, The Blessings Of God, The Promises Of God, The Providence Of God

God is actively working behind-the-scenes for you right now to meet your needs in ways that you don’t see. You don’t have the answers; God does. You don’t know the next move; God does. You can’t see how it will work out; God does. Everything you really need will really be supplied. Not maybe. Not probably. Definitely. God will provide for every need. Not some of them. Not most of them. All of them, without exception. Right when you need it, not a second too late. Today, do the work that God has said is for you to do, and believe that He is doing the work that is not for you to do.

God Is Worthy To Be Praised

Mar 28, 2023 | Eternity, Everyday Life, God's Care, Praise And Worship, The Blessings Of God, The Characteristics Of God, The Providence Of God, Treasuring God

God is worthy to be praised for Who He is, what He has already done for us, and what we are trusting Him to do for us in Christ. Every good thing that we have in our lives past, present and future is a gift of His grace. Even the things we think we worked hard to gain for ourselves are made possible by Him, for every ability and opportunity are given to us from Him. Therefore, let us celebrate Him before others and commend Him to others for all that He does for us, and that He delights to do so. Today… Honor Him for His blessings. Honor Him by enjoying His blessings as He intends. Honor Him for being a Blesser.

That’s How He Prepares Us

Mar 22, 2023 | God's Care, Good Works, Joy And Love, Knowing And Growing, Relationships, Spiritual Growth, The Bible, The Family Of God, Truth

Someone once said that God doesn’t care how many Bible verses we memorize as long as we love others. But the Bible is where we find our definition for what love is and our demonstration of what love does. Knowing what God has to say about love keeps us from forming our own opinions about what is right and wrong about how we feel and treat other people. It also reminds us of His steadfast love for us despite our faults, flaws and failures. This helps us be loving towards others who, like us, are in need of grace. God cares that we know the Bible because that’s how He prepares us to care for others.

You Have Been Blessed … Now Go Be A Blessing

Mar 19, 2023 | Gifts And Abilities, God's Care, Gospel And Grace, Gratitude And Thankfulness, Relationships, Serving, The Blessings Of God, The Family Of God

God has not blessed us with time just so we can use it binge-watching Netflix. He has not blessed us with money just so we can spend it on more comforts. He has not blessed us with abilities and skills just so we can serve our own interests and passions. The generosity of God has been extended to us with blessings of time, talent and treasure that we might both enjoy them ourselves and extend them to bless others. Those of us who are trusting in Jesus have been entrusted with showing the world His heart for them by being His hands and feet and mouth to them. You have been blessed; now go be a blessing.

It’s Always An Upgrade

Mar 10, 2023 | Everyday Life, God's Care, Gospel And Grace, Spiritual Disciplines, Spiritual Power, The Blessings Of God, The Family Of God, The Love Of God, The Providence Of God

God delights to give His children the good things they ask from Him. Why then are there times when we don’t get what we want in life? One reason is simply that we aren’t asking Him for good things. That could mean that we aren’t praying at all, and we don’t get what we ask for because we aren’t asking. That could mean that we are praying, but what we are asking for isn’t good for us to get. Whether it’s the wrong thing, the wrong track, or the wrong time, God loves us too much to say “yes” to all of our requests that we would regret in the end. When He acts differently than we asked, it’s always an upgrade.

God Is At Work

Mar 6, 2023 | God's Care, Gospel And Grace, Suffering And Sovereignty, The Blessings Of God, The Love Of God, The Providence Of God

God is at work… Through every trial and trouble. Through every problem and perplexity. Through every heartache and hardship. What is God doing during these times? He’s teaching you to look to Jesus, and transforming you to look like Him. When you face adversity, don’t give up hope, because God hasn’t given up on you. You may feel like everything is falling apart, but He’s actually putting you back together again so you can feel, think, speak and act like the person you were born to be. When you look back, you’ll find this to be true: your circumstances may not have changed, but you certainly have.

He Has Kept All Of His Promises To Me

Mar 5, 2023 | Everyday Life, Forgiveness, God's Care, Gospel And Grace, Gratitude And Thankfulness, Humility, The Characteristics Of God, The Providence Of God

Great is MY faithfulness is not part of a proverb or hymn. Nobody would ever celebrate my ability to do what I should do or do what I say I will do. I’m both a promise-maker and a promise-breaker. A thousand times I have failed to follow-through on my intentions in keeping God’s expectations as I have followed Jesus. And a thousand times I have received in return… Grace. Mercy. Forgiveness. Encouragement. Renewal. Correction. Power. Motivation. Reassurance. Acceptance. Instruction. Hope. Love. I cannot say that I have kept all of my promises to God. But I can say that He has kept all of His promises to me.

What God Has Been Seeing All Along

Mar 4, 2023 | Faith, Hope And Trust, God's Care, Gospel And Grace, Perseverance, Suffering And Sovereignty, The Providence Of God, Wisdom and Guidance

Like a thousand-piece puzzle, your life often looks like a jumble of disjointed and disconnected fragments that don’t seem to fit together very well. But God is putting everything into place exactly where He wants it so you can be who you were made to be and do what you were made to do. He has a good reason for and a good result from everything He allows to come into your life. Someday all will make sense, all will be made right, and all will be made new when He completes the good work He has started in you. Take heart! When the last puzzle piece is put into place, you will see what God has been seeing all along.

Shine His Light In Your Heart

Feb 25, 2023 | Encouragement, Faith, Hope And Trust, Following Jesus, God's Care, Gospel And Grace, Perseverance, Spiritual Power, Suffering And Sovereignty, The Family Of God, The Love Of God, The Promises Of God, The Providence Of God

Darkness isn’t just the time between dusk and dawn; it’s also any time you are facing the unknown. This is especially true of those seasons of suffering when the light at the end of your tunnel is nowhere to be seen. It is during those times that you must not give up hope. For even on those dark days when you can’t see what is up next, what step to take next or how anything good will come next, hope remains. Jesus is still there and Jesus still cares! Ask Him to give you the faith and inner strength that is needed to endure. And though the outer darkness may yet linger, the Son will rise and shine His light in your heart.

God Is In Control

Feb 15, 2023 | Faith, Hope And Trust, God's Care, Peace And Rest, The Providence Of God

One of the most exhausting things in all of life is trying to be in control of your life. Things simply will not always happen the way we want them to, and the more we try to force them to, the more worn out and weary we will become. But there is good news for frustrated control freaks like us: God rules and reigns over the cosmos for the good of His people. So… Step off the throne; that’s where He sits. Step away from the wheel; that’s His to turn. Step out in faith; that’s when His rest comes. Watch the frustration and exhaustion melt away when you operate by this truth: God is in control; we can stop trying to be.

God Will Provide For Your Every Need

Feb 10, 2023 | Encouragement, Everyday Life, God's Care, The Blessings Of God, The Love Of God, The Promises Of God, The Providence Of God

It’s a fact. It’s a certainty. It’s a promise. God will provide for your every need. But He often won’t do this in the way you think He will. Instead, He will astonish you with a “didn’t see that coming” choice of the 81st way you might have thought He’d come through for you. It may come through a shepherd boy instead of a warrior, an ark instead of fair weather, a few fish instead of ample supplies, a manger instead of a throne. But it will come exactly when it is needed to accomplish exactly what is needed. Today, expect God to work in your life for good. Just don’t expect Him to do it like you think He will.
