When your perception narrows so that problems or details fill your consciousness, you feel empty and incomplete. Learn to look steadily at Him in all your moments and all your circumstances. Though the world is unstable and in flux, you can experience continuity through your uninterrupted...

Many feel as if they are up against a gate in their life and are desperate to see breakthrough. Your identity of being "in Christ" will set you up for breakthrough. Hebrews 13:12 says, "And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through His own Blood." Jesus...

Ephesians 5:14 - "for the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said, “Awake, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will give you light.” God is pouring out His Spirit in such a massive way that everybody who is hungry, no matter where they are, will be able to embrace it...

Ephesians 5:14 - "Awake, sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you." God never meant for you to be self-sufficient. Instead, He designed you to need Him not only for daily bread but also for fulfillment of deep yearnings. Beware of trying to pacify these longings with...

The tendency to embrace the concept of God being an angry Father is done in equal proportion to a person's inability to demonstrate His power. There is a connection between our belief system and what actually flows through us. If we don't see Jesus' life as the ultimate illustration of the will...
Luke 8:47 is the story of the woman who had an issue of blood who desperately pressed through the crowd to lay hold of the hem of Jesus' garment: "Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at His feet. In the presence of all the people, she told why she had...

Your longing for heaven is good because it is an extension of your yearning for Jesus. Many Christians have misunderstood this word hope, believing that it denotes wishful thinking. Nothing could be farther from the truth! The phrase “hope of heaven” highlights the benefits you can enjoy even...
What would you do with the might of His Spirit? Would you allow it to flow out of you? Would you allow it to change you, and raise you up in His own glory? Do not let man cause you to fall, to slumber, or to come halfheartedly before His throne. But press forward, and come in boldly, for you...

Focus on Jesus -- Immanuel. If you live on the surface of life by focusing on everchanging phenomena, you will find yourself echoing the words of Solomon: "Meaningless! Meaningless! Everything is meaningless!" Live in collaboration with Him is the way to discover His purpose for your life. Begin...

Colossians 1:27 - "To them, God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." The mystery is that Christ is in you. That is your hope of glory. This suggests, then, that our task is not to get Christ into us, but out...

Luke 9:23 - "If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me." Spiritual storms, winds, and billows will blow into our lives, pulling us this way and that. Sometimes, in the face of winds and danger, we know there is a place of safety in God...

Jesus said, "Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear" (Mark 4:9). He also said that His sheep hear His voice (John 10:27). Not hearing the Father speak, not understanding the voice of the Holy Spirit, is the root of many of life's problems. If we would only linger a little longer in His voice...

Hebrews 13:5 - "He has said, 'I will never leave you nor forsake you.'” When you fall don't waste your time trying to figure everything out. Your understanding will always be twisted when you are depressed and you will never see truth from that place. Depression is the deception that comes...

Isaiah 54:2 - “Enlarge the place of your tent, and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out; do not hold back; lengthen your ropes and strengthen your stakes." When you don't think there is more to where you currently are in God's purpose for your life, you become limited. You...

Hebrews 4:16 - "So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most." When we sin, we don't need to punish ourselves, because Jesus already took our punishment and He now offers us His mercy. He is...

Philippians 3:20 - "For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;" As Christians, we are wonderfully privileged to have dual citizenship. We are citizens of earth and citizens of Heaven all at the same time! Many believe we receive our...
