In Isaiah 6:8, the Lord asked the prophet two questions. “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” He was looking for someone who was willing to surrender his own will and desire to do the work that God had for him to do. Isaiah’s answer? “Here I am. Send me.” That response… Continue reading 3 Signs That You Are Being Sent by God

Beloved, You Are a Gift from God
Christians are referred to as “beloved” in at least six different Books of the New Testament. It’s a term of endearment meant to remind us, even in tough times when we might start to feel alone in this world, that we truly are dear to the heart of God. Last week, the Lord orchestrated a… Continue reading Beloved, You Are a Gift from God
God Can Restore the Years of the Locusts
Sin has consequences, but so does repentance. Throughout the Bible, we can see a big difference in how God treats the wicked and how He treats the righteous. And, of course, the only way to righteousness is through repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Recently, I was offered a front-row seat to a… Continue reading God Can Restore the Years of the Locusts
Spiritual Authority in Warfare
It’s been said that the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he doesn’t exist. As Christians, however, we should know better. The Bible tells us plainly that we fight a real enemy, but I’m always amazed when my brothers and sisters in Christ ignore the war. Some say they don’t… Continue reading Spiritual Authority in Warfare
Psalm 107: God Hears the Cries of the Desperate
Self-sufficiency is applauded in our society. The world loves people who get things done on their own. They don’t ask for help, nor do they need any. They are strong and capable and proud of themselves for it. But Christians who have bought into this mindset are setting themselves up for a fall. The Bible… Continue reading Psalm 107: God Hears the Cries of the Desperate
When God Calls, He Equips
A lot has been said about spiritual warfare these days, and rightly so. The devil knows his time is short and is presently in the process of wearing out the saints. But there is another kind of trial that people don’t talk about nearly as much that can be just as difficult. It’s a test… Continue reading When God Calls, He Equips
Even When We Aren’t, God Is Able
I like sushi. The weird thing is that if you would have asked me less than a month ago, I would have curled my lip and held up my hand, “No, thanks.” When the implications of my newfound appreciation occurred to me recently, I marveled again at God’s attention to even the tiniest details. See,… Continue reading Even When We Aren’t, God Is Able
God Gives Second Chances to Those Who Ask
If you’ve ever missed the Lord, you know how bad it feels. Maybe you felt a nudge to talk to someone about Jesus, but you let your fears get in the way. Or maybe you had a thought you rejected but didn’t even know until later that it was the Lord doing the leading. That’s… Continue reading God Gives Second Chances to Those Who Ask
When You Aren’t Enough, Jehovah Jireh Is
Some say that it’s the lie of the enemy that we, as Christians, aren’t good enough. But while it's an accusation that packs quite a sting, it's not a lie at all. In fact, it's exactly what the Bible says about us. The real lie is self-sufficiency, that we can be enough in ourselves and… Continue reading When You Aren’t Enough, Jehovah Jireh Is
God Is Faithful in the Little Things & the Big Things
Sometimes God shows up in the most unexpected places. He puts out His hand, and there is no mistaking that He has once again intervened on your behalf. That happened to me this past weekend when I left an evening bridal shower and found myself in a dark parking lot. Later, when the realization of… Continue reading God Is Faithful in the Little Things & the Big Things
