I woke up the other morning overwhelmed, a little frenzied, a bit stressed. So much on my plate. The Lord said, “Rest.” It was a single word, quite literally a “word” from the Lord. “Rest.” I didn’t write that day. That’s why I’m writing about it now. I sat in my chair and felt the…

Feeling and Knowing
“I am always with you. I am with you.” The Lord is always with us even when it doesn’t seem like it. When we can’t feel Him, He is with us. The Bible never talks about feeling God that I’m aware of. It talks about loving God. It talks about knowing Him. It talks about…
Flood, Fire, and Passing Through
When we are in Christ, we are clothed in Him. We are covered by Him. We are sheltered by Him. No disaster comes near our tent — no harm shall overcome you (Psalm 91:10). On the day of judgement, we are saved by Him. …by the word of God…the earth was formed out of water…
Praying The Lord’s Prayer
This came from a question I had for the Lord at a difficult time. My question was this: Lord, how do I pray in unity with You, in a way that blesses You and honors You? And this is how I received His answer. Father in heaven, Your name is holy. Let Your kingdom come.…
Outside the Camp
Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate. Hence, let us go out to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach. For here we do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking the city which is to come. (Hebrews 13:12-14) This world is “outside…

Taking Refuge
But let all who take refuge in You be glad, let them ever sing for joy;and may You shelter them, that those who love Your name may exult in You (Psalm 5:11). Let me be glad. Let me sing for joy. I take refuge in the Lord. It’s what I proclaim; it’s what I preach. The Lord is my refuge.…
God Remains
God remains. No matter what my circumstances, no matter what my mood may be, no matter if I feel His presence or feel close to Him, God remains. He is unchanging. My life is one of change. His truth is truth. My truth, if I choose to follow it, adjusts according to my latest whim…
A Day to Praise
Praise the Lord. When I have nothing, praise the Lord. When I have abundance, praise the Lord. What I have or don’t have has no effect on who God is. What I have or don’t have does not change God’s character. What I have or don’t have does not change God’s promises. His promises to…
