Have You Been Touched By An Angel?
Good Morning Friends, Angels are one of Scripture’s most mysterious gifts: never the center of the story, yet always present at the hinge points of God’s redemptive work. Today's three passages trace a beautiful arc from covenant faithfulness, to cosmic warfare, to the quiet promise of revelation given to a man under a fig tree. … Continue reading Have You Been Touched By An Angel?
Are You Guarding Against Mission Creep?
Good Morning Friends, A lot of people pray before a meal and that is good, but today’s scripture gives us guidance on praying after the meal when we are full. It is also guidance about the subtle mission creep that occurs in churches, families and missions. Mission creep rarely announces itself. It begins when a … Continue reading Are You Guarding Against Mission Creep?
What Do We Mean When We Say, “Come Holy Spirit?”
Good Morning Friends, We say it all the time: Come Holy Spirit. It rolls off the tongue in prayer circles, worship gatherings, quiet moments of desperation. But if we slow down, if we take time to think about the words, it’s a strange thing to say. Because biblically speaking, the Holy Spirit is not a … Continue reading What Do We Mean When We Say, “Come Holy Spirit?”
What Else Can We Learn About God By Understanding The Context Of The Plagues In Egypt?
A Devotional on Exodus 7–12 Good Morning Friends, The plagues of Egypt are not random acts of judgment. They are theophany in motion of God revealing Himself, plague by plague, god by god, idol by idol, until Egypt’s entire spiritual system collapses under the weight of Yahweh’s glory. Each plague is a direct confrontation. Each … Continue reading What Else Can We Learn About God By Understanding The Context Of The Plagues In Egypt?
Is The Lord Your Shepherd?
Good Morning Friends, I think sometimes we read Psalm 23 like it’s a sweet poem to hang on a wall. But David didn’t write this from a cozy coffee shop. He wrote it as a man who had been hunted, betrayed, exhausted, and pushed to the edge. And right there, in the middle of fear … Continue reading Is The Lord Your Shepherd?
Would You Recognize Jesus If He Was Standing At The Entrance To Your Home?
Good Morning Friends, Genesis 18 opens with a shock: “The LORD appeared to Abraham… as he sat at the entrance of his tent.” Not a dream. Not a vision. Not an angelic messenger. A Visitor is standing in the heat of the day, in the dust of Mamre, beneath the shade of a tree. Abraham … Continue reading Would You Recognize Jesus If He Was Standing At The Entrance To Your Home?
How Do We Rediscover The Wisdom Of The Bible That Rescues Us?
Good Morning Friends, Paul says something astonishing to Timothy, something we often rush past: “The Scriptures are able to make you wise for salvation.” Not smart. Not informed. Not religiously literate. Wise. And not just wise in general, wise for salvation. Wise in ways we never thought possible. Paul is saying that Scripture doesn’t just … Continue reading How Do We Rediscover The Wisdom Of The Bible That Rescues Us?
Are You Becoming Like Jesus?
Good Morning Friends, If you’ve walked with Jesus for any length of time, you’ve felt the tension: I know who He is… but I’m not yet like Him. And that gap — that ache — is not a sign of failure. It’s a sign of life. It’s evidence that the Spirit is at work, pulling … Continue reading Are You Becoming Like Jesus?
Are We Being Conformed, Or Are We Being Transformed?
Good Morning Friends, There’s a battle happening in our minds long before it ever shows up in our behavior. Paul puts it plainly: “Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Romans 12:2 is not a suggestion, it’s a diagnosis. The world is always discipling us, always … Continue reading Are We Being Conformed, Or Are We Being Transformed?
