Revisitting Matthew 7:21-23: “21 Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord , Lord , did we not prophesy in your name, and in your [...]

Two scriptures from Isaiah today.  One about (in my words) God’s people ‘playing church’ and being ‘religious’ and God calling them to repentance and cleansing.  And the other about God’s people arising (waking up) and being His light to the nations and His glory shining through them!

There are some that say the story of Exodus in the Old Testament is, kind of, like the Spiritual journey of a Christian. That is, the coming out of Egypt is conversion, perhaps the parting of the Red Sea is baptism, the time in the wilderness represents the struggle that we have between our flesh [...]

In 1 Samuel 17 we have the great story of David and Goliath. Read the whole chapter! It is rich in Spiritual truths. They are literally everywhere is this story! There is one section that the Lord has had me thinking about quite a lot. It is this… 1 Samuel 17:20-24 20 Early in the [...]

You are my friend if… John 15:14 (Jesus says): You are my friends if you do what I command. NIV How would you react if you had a friend come up to you and say “You are my friend if you do what I say!”? I ran this question passed my 11 year old son [...]
