Out of Egypt
Whew! Apparently my speculation was well grounded, and not just something stuck in my brain from the narration of Cecil B. DeMille’s version of The Ten Commandments. I was still curious what the historians had to say on the subject and was able to find some great background material that puts the exodus out of Egypt in a historical perspective.
Putting Faith Into Action With The Spoken Word… Or Not
So why do some people insist on dwelling on all of this negativity? The simple answer is lack of faith and lack of hope. Without faith and without hope, the unknown can be terrifying. We hold on to the “demon” we have grown accustomed to rather than open the door to a new, possibly more painful experience. Because we are holding on, our spoken words reflect our pain. It is essentially a defense mechanism that keeps us stagnant. So how can we break this cycle? We must learn to manifest a joyful future using the spoken word.
Gloryway Is Forever His – Bringing the Light of Christ to Instant Messaging
Gloryway Is Forever His… Two of my friends recently joined forces combining two online portals of prayer into one. Linda M Davis and Tammie Perry had each felt the calling to create and maintain a prayer group on Skype. Tammie was ministering to prayer needs in a group she called Forever His, and Linda maintaining…
Alpha and Omega, a Lesson From the Wolf Pack
When we think of Christ as the Alpha and Omega, what first comes to mind is the beginning and the end. From the perspective reflected in the wolf pack we can gain an even deeper understanding of what that means.
Enabling Behavior – Working Through the Gray Areas of Love
Enabling behavior is fueled by our feelings of love and friendship. It’s only natural to want to help someone we care about, but when it comes to certain life and growth issues or repetitive dysfunctional behaviors, our help simply allows the problem to persist. In other words we are doing more harm than good by allowing that person to avoid making the changes they need to make. At the same time, it is difficult to stop our enabling behavior lest we seem cold, calloused and uncaring.
If God Is In Control, Why Do I Feel This Way?
God is in control… But for me, this weekend has been one of mixed feelings that I am sure many of you can relate to. I have had to remind myself over and over… God is in control! It seems my world was turned inside out by one event after another, and I can only…
Electronic Gossip
Upon close examination, you will find that much of the seemingly well intended email you receive is filled with gossip, rumors, and lies. It is designed to make masses of people believe something that is not true, and as surely as Satan is laughing at how easy we are to fool, it is working to dumb our society down into little more than sheeple who will follow anyone that speaks what they want to hear with more than a little charisma. (I am tempted, but I won’t name names.)
God of Deliverance
There are always consequences to our choices, some good and some bad, and often our life path becomes an expression of our longing for freedom, rather than an embrace of the freedom we already have.
Get Ready for the Future of Food
So let’s get on to the nuts and bolts of what has come together over the past few years. It all began when two guys got together and had a brainstorm idea to start a coffee company. They understood that a commodity, coffee, is something that almost everyone drinks every day. It is legal and we are largely addicted. What if they could produce the best tasting coffee in the world? What would that look like?
Raised From the Dead!
Yes, I had gone astray, and I lusted for all kinds of things, but I loved nothing. In one blessed moment I promised my life to Him, and He handed my life back to me, and for the first time in my life, I felt truly ALIVE!
