Can you be trusted with the gifts God has given you? Will you use what you have to advance the Kingdom? The Parable of the talents in Matthew 15 gives us God’s view of stewardship and what He expects of the things He gives us to manage. God expects that we will take what we have and grown it for His glory!!!! Reject fear and the natural inclination to hide what you are supposed to multiply! To be...

How often do we miss God’s provision because we are too afraid to step out in faith?!  In Joshua 1:1-9 we are given a call to action. The Lord wants us to be active, following His call and moving forward. As we walk in obedience, He will make a way where there seems to be none!!!  To conquer the mountain in your life, we can’t sit around and whine about it. Complaining keeps us stuck, faithful MOV...

Idols don’t always look like statues. Sometimes they look like what you can’t let go of. What you run to when life gets hard. What you think about when no one’s watching. What gets your best time, your loudest praise, your deepest affection. “If it has your heart more than God — it has to die.”  Idolatry is subtle It slides in when you stop guarding your focus. It grows when you start compromising...

God is FAITHFUL!!!  The Bible constantly shows us the character of God and it is GOOD. His promises are trustworthy, and his mercy is greater than we have ever given Him credit for.  Psalm 119:90 Numbers 23:19 Joshua 23:14 Hebrews 10:23  Proverbs 3:5-6 Jeremiah 33:3 Hebrews 11:6 2 Thessalonians 3:3 Psalm 89:1-2 Psalm 92:1-2 Psalm 34:1-4 Lamentations 3:21-24 These are just some of the passages of s...

If you don’t build the habit of prayer, you’ll stay stuck in the habit of defeat. When Hezekiah prayed, God heard—and He still hears today. Prayer isn’t a last resort, it’s your lifeline. Talk less, pray more Word. Proverbs 18:21 says life and death are in the power of your tongue—so speak life. Isaiah 43:26 says remind God of His Word—so find scripture that promises what you need and declare it b...

Habits!!! The ones we developed are life changing 🔥 To find true freedom and walk in the promises of God, we MUST develop the habit of discipline and the habit of not holding on to life’s cares!  What we receive in life is directly related to our level of discipline. We must be willing to deny ourselves and our flesh in order to reap an eventual harvest!!!  Hebrews 12:11 tells us that discipline...

Do you have enough faith to trust the process of a life lived for Christ? What kind of habits are you developing? Our habits have the power to build us up or tear us down!!!! Galatians 6 reminds us to not grow weary in doing good. The trials of life can cause us to question if what we are doing is worth it, but we KNOW there is a harvest and a promise when we persevere!!!! A continual push forward...

What season of life are you in right now? A season of favor? Famine? The account of Joseph’s life in Genesis gives us the blueprint for how to navigate the highs and lows of life while continually moving forward. Joseph refused to look to the past and what had been, keeping his eyes on God and using his gifts in EVERY circumstance to bring glory to Him. Because of Joseph’s response to the famine s...

Potholes, we love to hate em! Every one of us has hit at least a few in our lives. For the most part, they come without warning or announcement. To mature is to realize we will 100% face problems in our lives, both avoidable and unavoidable. How we navigate these problems defines how we come through the season they so often place us in!!!! Proverbs 22:3 teaches us that anticipating problems is not...

If you don’t get your thoughts under control, your life will always be out of control! God’s Word tells us that He had mighty things in store for you and your best days are in front of you. Any thoughts that fail to line up with those two things aren’t worthy of your attention! If you’re only focused on what you’ve lost, you’ll never have the capacity to focus on what God has in store for your lif...

It’s time for you to reprogram your mind with the truth of the Word! Whatever occupies your mind will determine your destiny, and you’ll never be able to claim victory until you learn to think in line with the truth. Satan will work overtime to flood your mind with images, trying to pull you into sin, but remember: sin doesn’t kill you all at once. It starts with seeds of thought that will grow if...

LIVE LIKE JESUS!!! The evidence of those who are disciples of Christ is transformation and real life change! When we look to Jesus as our example, and allow the Holy Spirit to lead us, it’s impossible to stay the same!!!  The notion that our actions don’t matter is not biblical. Jesus requires us to be DOERS not just PROFESSORS!!!!!! 🔥 1 John 3:19 Matthew 7:20-23 John 8:31 🔥 How much are we depo...

When You’re in the In-Between, God is Already Moving! 🔥 The greatest battles of life happen in the in-between—that wilderness, that transition, that place where nothing makes sense. But while you’re wondering if God is still working, He’s already preparing the breakthrough! 🙌 Some only serve God when it serves them, only love Him as much as they can use Him. But faith isn’t about convenience—it’...

While your enemies are plotting against you, God is preparing a breakthrough in your favor! We cannot have blessings without enemies, and in the midst of our pain, God gives us a promise for a greater future. He doesn’t base our next chapter on what we’ve lost or what’s behind us. Faith is forward-moving! Don’t get caught up in looking at your past; don’t get stuck in reverse! Don’t let yourself i...

What an incredible Sunday diving into Psalm 23 and discovering the unshakable truth of God's presence in our lives! 🙌 Here are some key takeaways to carry into your week: - God is still in the restoration business – no matter where you are, He’s not finished with you. - Stop fighting the One who’s trying to fight your battles. Trust the Shepherd; He knows the way. - "Taste and see that the Lord i...

No matter how bad things get, there is always a “surely” at the end of your story! Psalm 23 is a testament to God’s unwavering faithfulness — His promise is sure, no matter how dark the valley. Satan will try to deceive you into thinking your situation is hopeless, but we have something far more powerful than the enemy’s deceit and lies: a personal relationship with the Lord that unlocks the benef...

Are you full of joy? Or does your answer to that question depend on how the day has gone? It is possible to live a life of joy DESPITE circumstance and situation!!!! Determine to be resolute in joy, allowing no thing, no situation, and no person to have access to your storehouse of joy. Satan constantly sends distractions to us in an attempt to rob us of joy. Refuse to allow him to succeed!!! If t...

A powerful prayer life starts when we INVITE God in to our everyday life and situations!!!  It’s easy to fall in to the habit of informing God of all the things going wrong, and all the ways we are struggling, however there is NO power in complaining.  Shift your perspective and begin to extend an invitation to the Lord to intervene in EVERY area of your life!!!! It won’t take long for you to star...

Do you want to be made whole? What area of your life have you stayed comfortable in for far too long?!  Jesus’ encounter with the man at Bethesda challenges us to look at our lives and find places where we have allowed disfunction to hinder us from growing.  To mature in the Lord and see progress, we MUST get rid of the barriers built by our past choices and experiences.  🔥Destroy the barricade o...

Do you really understand that God is with you?! Are you confident in Christ and the power that’s at work in your life?! The life of David is a perfect example for how we should face adversity and the storms of life. Before David fought Goliath, he declared the victory; not through his own might but through the power of Almighty God!!!!!! We must keep our eyes focused on Christ and remember that He...

Praise God that in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God! Jesus was not just a man, not just a prophet, but the eternal, uncreated Son of God! The power of the gospel is in the revelation of who Jesus really is: the image of the invisible God! When you start thinking of Jesus as a created being, you miss the fact that He is the eternal redeemer who existed bef...

Patience. It’s a fruit of the spirit, and one that most of us would say we don’t operate in very often. In our culture of now, with fear of missing out at an all time high, patience can seem to be unattainable. However, the Word promises that our patience will grow as our faith is tested. When the storms of life come, are we placing our trust in God and responding only how and when He wants us to?...

Stop waiting, start working!!! Have you been waiting for a promise from God’s Word to come to pass in your life? Too often we find ourselves in a stagnant state, idly waiting for the Lord to move. This is futile, and leads to a life of constant frustration!  Study God’s word, put it to work in your life, watch your faith grow and prepare yourself to walk in to the new seasons God has planned for y...

Do you care more about reality or perception? Fools will tell you that perception IS reality, but those same people will lie about who they are because they’re too weak to face the truth. Jesus tells us that there are people who will honor Him with their lips, but their hearts are far from Him! They may look, talk, act, and dress the part, but the reality is that Jesus will tell them, “Depart from...

Following Jesus does not absolve us from the responsibility of making choices in our every day lives. There is a powerful connection between the choices we make and the consequences we face. Let’s not spend our lives blaming others for choices we are making!!!  •Stop making excuses!  •Recognize all decisions have consequences.  •Ask yourself, Where are my decisions leading me? It is IMPOSSIBLE to...
