A Beautiful Thing Happened On the Way to the Benediction
Sometimes we are so caught up in worldly things that we just can’t see the beautiful thing God is doing in the midst of it. Today I witnessed one of these beautiful moments when everything came together with perfection only God can offer, but even in the midst of it, the enemy was doing his best to beat those being blessed down and cause them to miss their blessing.
Unicorns in My Bible – What’s Up With That?
Initially God was asking Job questions about animals to demonstrate how little Job knew about them when compared to God, who created them and knew everything about them. Beginning with verse 9, the questions are surely rhetorical as God uses sarcasm (much like my mother did when I was young) to put Job in his place.
And the Light Shines in the Darkness…
This was not the rabbit hole I had imagined myself jumping into when I began this journey, but God’s path for me is rarely anything like what I am expecting. With that in mind, it was time to revisit John 1 verses 1-5 with a fresh perspective. This time I went to my AENT (Aramaic to English New Testament translation), as I often do when I feel I am getting closer but can’t quite reach it, hoping to acquire a deeper understanding of the intamcy between God and Jesus in the act of creation.
Resolving to Pursue a Clean Heart
The human condition is a reflection of the great fall from grace in the Garden of Eden. Ever since that ancient example was set, all of mankind has shared the same experience in life from birth to physical death, physically, mentally, and spiritually, we fall down, we get up.
Charismatic Christianity – Is it Crazy?
The charismatic movement has touched all of the predominant denominations in one way or another, as young Christians are seeking a more experiential spiritual life. More conservative worshipers resist change, and because of the actions of some tent meeting con men, may be doubtful when they see the Spirit move upon an individual in a manner that is anticipated in a charismatic worship environment. What this is all leading up to, is something my pastor said to the congregation a couple of weeks ago that really took me by surprise.
Needing a Miracle
Now, I dare to dream bigger and to expect more. I welcome the tough challenges and I savor the moment when God shows up right on time. He doesn’t show up early, giving me cause to doubt that it is His hand upon my success, but He never shows up too late

What if God Answered? What Would He Say?
More than a prayer, it is a conversation with God that most of us should be having. I received an email from a friend yesterday and thought it was well worth sharing. This is in 2 parts, the prayer in the normal text color, and God’s responses in red. Our Father Who Art In Heaven.…
We Are The Battlefield!
There has been an ever expanding allegory of countless struggles and wars since the fall of man in the garden of Eden. Human history is riddled with countless battlefields and countless sinister plans, and we mere mortals have been the focal point of these struggles both as individuals like Job, Jonah, Anne Frank, Abraham Lincoln, and Adolf Hitler, and entire communities, races, and nationalities of people like the blacks, Jews, Freemasons, Kurds, Palestinians, and Christians. We have been used and abused, wined and dined, fooled, tricked, enticed, endangered, and played against one another, as part of Satan’s campaign to convince God that we will fear, worship, and follow him in defiance of our Creator.
What Color or Race are Gods Chosen People?
This all started several days ago when my facebook friend, Gary Ellison, made a bold post. We don’t see eye to eye on everything, but we are brother and sister in the Lord and have had some very good and edifying conversation. His post generated a thread of 409 comments (so far), as many passionate believers debated their views. So here is the post that started it all.
