What Are You Asking For?

Thomas

Faith, God’s Will, Hearing God, Sanctification, The Holy Spirit

I was challenged by the Holy Spirit the other morning with a simple question… What Are You Asking For? I thought about it and focused on several things, but His response in my spirit was short and sweet… You are asking amiss! When He asked me that question my first thought was that familiar verse in Luke… Luke… Read more

Faith, God’s Will, Grace, Hearing God, Obedience, Salvation, Sanctification, The Bride, The Holy Spirit, Walk The Walk

A simple question, but the answer isn’t as simple as it sounds. A simple yes or no won’t work. Obadiah is the shortest book in the Bible but the prophet’s message is a powerful one, one that goes right to the heart of the issue facing us today… deliverance. In Obadiah’s day it was about deliverance… Read more

Faith, God’s Will, Hearing God, Obedience, Prayer, Spiritual Maturity, The Bride, The Holy Spirit, The Word, Walk The Walk

The Holy Spirit caught my attention this morning as I was reading a very familiar scripture; one that all of us know well but often pass over quickly. But as I read it my attention, as it has been for months, was focused not only on the “prophetic” message but on the people to whom… Read more

Back in 1965 the Rolling Stones recorded a number one hit that delivered a profound message, but it wasn’t necessarily the one they intended. I got to thinking about that this morning as I was reading Psalm 17 and I thought how true the words of that song were when we put them in perspective of… Read more

Covenant, Dying to Self, God’s Will, Hearing God, Obedience, Spiritual Maturity, The Bride, The Holy Spirit, The Word, Walk The Walk

The moment someone refers to a “plate” in church, the focus of virtually everyone in the pews goes to money. That’s what I used to do but, oh how that misses the point! In studying the Book of Malachi once again I was taken with the message God was delivering to the spiritual leaders in Israel.… Read more

Dying to Self, Faith, God’s Will, Hearing God, Jesus Rest, Obedience, Sanctification, Spiritual Maturity, The Bride

If you have been following me then you know I have been spending a great deal of time in the Old Testament. God has been showing me, as I said the other day, that history truly does repeat itself. And the path that Israel walked down is now the path of the majority of the church… Read more

Dying to Self, God’s Will, Grace, Hearing God, Obedience, Sanctification, The Bride, Trials and Tribulations, Walk The Walk

Harry Houdini, the famous escape artist, had a slogan that completely summed up who he believed he was… I only get into situations I can control and from which I can escape! In studying the Book of Amos I was challenged by something that Lloyd Ogilvie said in his commentary with respect to Houdini’s mantra… Most of us have a Houdini… Read more

Anger, Doubt, Faith, God’s Will, Hearing God, Overcoming, Sanctification, Spiritual Maturity, The Bride, Trials and Tribulations

When we are born again, when we become betrothed to the King of kings to become His bride, when the Holy Spirit brings us into the family of God… we begin the greatest adventure of all time. We may only be a child or we may be a full-grown adult with children of our own;… Read more
Ever Been Impatient?

Yes… I have been guilty many times! But then again I do take some comfort in the fact that I am not alone. In fact there are some incredibly strong fathers of faith in the Bible that were also guilty of being impatient; more than once. And the other day in an effort to hear… Read more
The In-Between Times

Doubt, Dry Times, Faith, God’s Will, Hearing God, Obedience

Have you ever or are you now in one of those “in-between” times? Those periods between hearing God’s promise and seeing it come to pass that can put a real strain on our faith. I’ve been there so many times that you would think by now I’d have it down pat. Not even close. The… Read more
