Spirit and Truth: Reclaiming the Heart of Worship
Does our worship mean anything? What is the ultimate purpose of our songs?
The songs we sing in church or listen to were never meant to be a substitute for our worship; they were meant to enhance it. It's time to regain our voices; it's time to push through the outer court and reclaim the high places-the altars-where true worship happens.
From Victim to Victorious!
To weather your trials, seek a word from God. In Acts 27, amidst a storm, Paul imparts hope to a despairing crew because an angel conveyed God's word. Often, in our storms, we lose sight of God's promises, yet our ability to endure hinges on clinging steadfastly to His Word.
Desperation or Entitlement: Assessing Your Prayer Life
When people approached Jesus, He often inquired, "What do you need?" He wanted to know their specific needs. Expressing a specific need transforms mere requests into miracles and requires humility.
Half a Cabbage.

Is there a genuine yearning in your heart for more, or are you simply satisfied with what God did yesterday? Are you ready for a new testimony? Are you ready to declare what God is doing in your life today?
Overstating God’s Love?
The commission we find in Matthew is to make disciples and teach people to obey. I do not see our ministry or call to the unbelieving world as being to “make God’s great love known”. Yes, I realize we are to make His great love known, but the love that God has is never more revealed in power, then when we preach the gospel. God’s love is demonstrated in this - that Jesus gave His life. ( 1 John 4:9)
The Rise of Deliverers. The Exodus of Fear
You’re not imagining it. Things are getting worse in this world. The Bible is clear that the acceleration of wickedness is evidence that we are drawing closer to the conclusion of history which will be punctuated with Christ’s return.
Don’t Allow Your Rest to Be Your Undoing
Our commitment to Jesus transcends church attendance, and that commitment follows us even when we are away. The danger is in the extended absences. The forsaking of the body can at times be a gradual drift. If we are not watchful, our relaxation and rest could lead to our undoing.
COMPELLED BY THE SPIRIT
You are perhaps alone in a marriage, family or job trying to serve the Lord while everyone around you is oblivious and living in sin. What do we do? Today’s generation knows very little of the Brownsville or the Azusa St. Revival. Spiritual generals are leaving the world, and the giants of church history are becoming faded memories. Today’s biblical illiteracy is grievous. This generation – despite their mighty heritage, know little to nothing of the God of their fathers.
