THE GREATEST RESCUE MISSION EVER!
"…everyone did what was right in his own eyes" (Judges 21:25 NKJV).
"For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ." (1 Corinthians 2:16 ESV)
I was thinking about the season we are approaching as I began to read an Advent devotional. The word “rescue” came to mind. I agree! Jesus’ coming to us was the biggest rescue mission in history. I began to relate that to my thought patterns. I can’t tell you how many times a day I ask myself the question, “What am I going to do?” When I consider that question, I am seeking a solution and thinking about what “seems right in my own eyes” according to my finite mind...
SAINT OR SINNER???
My old identity has been co-crucified with Messiah and no longer lives; for the nails of his cross crucified me with him. And now the essence of this new life is no longer mine, for the Anointed One lives his life through me— we live in union as one! My new life is empowered by the faith of the Son of God who loves me so much that he gave himself for me, and dispenses his life into mine! ...
THE GOAL
I was reading a devo on questions Jesus asked and why they matter. I had never considered that when He said some hard things, especially John 6:54 concerning Communion, many followers deserted Him. John 6:54-56 (TPT) "Eternal life comes to the one who eats my body...
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A time of catching up with one of my sister-friends often includes talking about our relationship and circumstance struggles. This involves confessions of the flesh-producing lies in which we are entangled. After all, confession is good for the soul (and safe with...
WHO DO I NEED YOU TO BE?
As we look back to the garden of Eden in Genesis Chapter 3, we see what is traditionally called the "fall of man." I never knew what that was all about until I began understanding New Covenant living (total dependence on Jesus Christ to meet all my needs). My...
GOD, WHAT IS YOUR OPINION OF ME?
God, what is your opinion of me? That question, when sought and the answer believed, is life-changing. The New Covenant is filled with identity statements for the believer, beginning with “Saint.” For believers, who have not been taught that we had a nature change...
DO WE REALLY HEAR GOD’S VOICE?
I have had the honor of walking with many through our Discipleship Counseling process. Many doubt they hear the voice of God. I assure people they do hear the voice of God. How do I know that? Scripture tells us so in John 10: John 10:4 (AMPC) “When he has brought...
NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS?
As a “doer”, I’m enamored with Jesus’ “to do” list! He simply wants us to believe and live from the heart certainly not our own strength. All expressions of the heart are from love, His love. It takes the pressure off of the “I have to do” mentality. I just get to...
THE REMEDY FOR CONTROL
2 Peter 1:3 – “Everything we could ever need for life and godliness has already been deposited in us by his divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a...
MY EDUCATION? I’VE BEEN WITH JESUS!
Acts 4:13 (NLT) The members of the council were amazed when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, for they could see that they were ordinary men with no special training in the Scriptures. They also recognized them as men who had been with Jesus. I have spoken...
