Really Alive
Scripture “The thief comes only to steal and Kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10:10, NIV) Word A couple of years ago, I was watching the news when Captain Sullenberger successfully landed a jet airplane in the Hudson River. All 155 passengers survived. […]
Living With Enthusiasm
Scripture “You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace…” (Isaiah 55:12, NIV) Word The word “enthusiasm” comes from the Greek word “entheos.” “Theos” is God. When you’re enthusiastic, it simply means you are full of God. When you get up in the morning excited about your future, recognizing that day is […]
Dig Deeper
Scripture “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up” (Galatians 6:9, NLT) Word I read that back in the 1800’s some explorers were going across a huge desert and didn’t bring enough water. They started digging […]
Remain in Him
Scripture “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:5, NIV) Word Have you ever thought about the relationship between the branch and the vine? We don’t use these kinds of word […]
The Pruning Process
Scripture “He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful” (John 15:2, NIV) Word In life, we all go through a pruning process. God will prune our lives so that we can bear much fruit. To […]
Stay in Sync
Scripture “In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps” (Proverbs 16:9, NIV) Word Have you ever tried something and got the results you wanted and then tried the same thing again and got different results? This happened to Moses in the Bible. They needed water and God told Moses […]
When God is Your Boss
Scripture “For exaltation (promotion) comes neither from the east nor from the west nor from the south. But God is the Judge: He puts down one, and exalts another” (Psalm 75:6–7, NKJV) Word I know this man who was upset because his boss was really against him. The boss was always trying to make him […]
The New Has Come
Scripture “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come” (2 Corinthians 5:17, NIV) Word When you receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you are a new creation! You have a new spirit, a new walk, a new life! There may be “old” […]
Rest for Your Soul
Scripture “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28, NIV) Word God wants to give you rest. He wants to refresh and restore your soul — your mind, will and emotions. It’s so easy to get caught up in the “busyness” of life, and before […]
New Provision
Scripture “God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19, NKJV) Word When the people of Israel were in the desert on the way to the Promised Land, God gave them manna to eat. That was good. It sustained them for a while, but it wasn’t permanent […]
The Greatest Love of All
Scripture “And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love” (1 Corinthians 13:13, NKJV) Word In our culture today, so many people are confused about what love is. We love pizza, movies and sports, but we also love our family or spouse. If we look to the Word of […]
