We Are Saved By God’s Grace Ephesians 2:3-5 “The corruption that was in us from birth was expressed through the deeds and desires of our self-life. We lived by whatever natural cravings and thoughts our minds dictated, living as rebellious children subject to God’s wrath like everyone else. But God still loved us with such great love. He is so rich in compassion and mercy. Even when we were dead a...

He Gives All The More Grace James 4:6 “But he gives all the more grace; therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” Continuing on with our grace series, I wanted to share this verse with you.

Where Sin Increased, Grace Abounded All The More Romans 5:20-21 “Law came in, to increase the trespass; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, so that , as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Today’s episode is one I wrote over a year and a half ago and yet goes perfect with this series on grace so I will...

What Does Grace Even Mean? Titus 2:11-12 “God’s marvelous grace has manifested in person, bringing salvation for everyone. This same grace teaches us how to live each day as we turn our backs on ungodliness and indulgent lifestyles, and it equips us to live self-controlled, upright, godly lives in this present age.” I had someone reach out to me and ask me about God’s grace. I talk about it a lot...

He Sees You As Holy, Flawless, and Restored Colossians 1:21-22 “Even though you were once distant from him, living in the shadows of your evil thoughts and actions, he reconnected you back to himself. He released his supernatural peace to you through the sacrifice of his own body as the sin-payment on your behalf so that you would dwell in his presence. And now there is nothing between you and Fat...

Dance Like No One Is Watching 2 Samuel 6:14-16 “And David danced before the Lord with all his might; and David was belted with a linen ephod.  So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of the horn.” I like this verse because it shows how happy David was that the Arc was coming back home.  It says that David danced before the Lord with all...

Matthew 10:7-8 “As you go, proclaim the good news, ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’ Cure the sick; raise the dead; cleanse those with a skin disease; cast out demons. You received without payment; give without payment.” I saw this verse this morning and I thought it was a great verse for today.  As you can tell, from a lot of the verses I have been sharing with you lately, the class I am tak...

But take courage; I have conquered the world!” This is something that we can all take heart in knowing. We will all face persecution, but Jesus has conquered this world.  We don’t have to worry that the persecution will be the end of us. Sometimes it f...

Struck Down, But Not Destroyed 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 “We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;  persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.” I saw this verse written on a page in my book today and thought to myself, man if there was ever a time that we needed to hear this.  The world is crazy right now.  There is so much tragedy and pain....

The Tree House 2 Corinthians 1:20 “For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means “Yes”) ascends to God for his glory.” All God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “yes!”  How great is that? All God’s promises have been fulfilled.  There is not one thing that God promised that He has not followed t...

God Will Fulfil Every Need! Philippians 4:19 “I am convinced that my God will fully satisfy every need you have, for I have seen the abundant riches of glory revealed to me through Jesus Christ!” This was in a letter from St. Paul the Philippians. When I read it this morning I wondered, are we convinced? I know St. Paul was convinced, he had seen God come through time and time again for him and hi...

The Example of Jesus Christ Philippians 2:6-8 “He existed in the form of God, yet he gave no thought to seizing equality with God as his supreme prize. Instead, he emptied himself of his outward glory by reducing himself to the form of a lowly servant. He became human! He humbled himself and became vulnerable, choosing to be revealed as a man and was obedient. He was a perfect example, even in his...

Today’s episode is a bit different. I will be reading a chapter from my book, Total Trust in God’s Safe Embrace. Today’s chapter is called The Power of The Saints. I hope you enjoy it! I love the saints! We can learn so much from them. I think we tend to put the saints on a pedestal and think that they were perfect and that we can’t really learn anything from them because they weren’t like ordinar...

Live A Cheerful Life Without Complaining Philippians 2:14-16a “Live a cheerful life, without complaining or division among yourselves. For then, you will be seen as innocent, faultless, and pure children of God, even though you live in the midst of a brutal and perverse culture. For you will appear among them as shining lights in the universe, holding out the words of eternal life.” When I read th...

Letting Go Of Our Past Philippians 3:7-8 “Yet all of the accomplishments that I once took credit for, I’ve now forsaken them, and I regard it all as nothing compared to the delight of experiencing Jesus Christ as my Lord! To truly know him meant letting go of everything from my past and throwing all my boasting on the garbage heap. It’s all like a pile of manure to me now so that I may be enriched...

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. Did you all notice that before she received the healing she took a leap of faith and started testing out to see if she was healed? Sometimes, that is when we are healed, when we step out in faith to test the healing. Testing the healing means trying to do something you couldn’t do before. Like in Caitlyn’s case, she tried to see outside without her...
