Languishing
Jesus works in our bad days, sometimes even more than on our good days.


Jesus Wept; So Can You
Sometimes the most spiritual thing we can do is weep.

Restore. Refresh. Renew.
It’s time to let Jesus do what needs to be done in our lives. Restore. Refresh. Renew.

Plenty of Room
Eternal death awaits unless you accept Christ as your Savior and follow Him.

Rise Up and Know
God chases us down our whole lives to remind us not only does He love us, but out of the fullness of this love, He can do the impossible. He’s a God after our own hearts.

Are You In The Fire?
Are you struggling against your sin or are you complacently accepting it?

Banana Peels
It’s time to check our walk. Are we throwing out banana peels? Are there things in our life that are causing our brother to stumble?

The Man with No Name
Are you spending your life trying to make a name for yourself? Or glorifying the One who truly matters?

Ulterior Motives
And the beautiful thing is that He still loves us. He sees the dark truth within us and yet, He chooses to love and forgive us.

Oh, the Father’s Love for Us
God invites you to dine at His table. He has a feast prepared for you, a robe of righteousness to place on you, shoes of peace that will allow you to go and share your story of His goodness.

Jump on the Bandwagon
Are you willing to do whatever it takes to follow Jesus? Will you still be there in the end, or will you be one of those that jumps off the bandwagon?

Everyone Matters. Everyone Counts.
You matter to God. Today, choose to follow Him.

Service > Status
In God’s Kingdom, service is more important than status.

Impacted by Identity
God gives believers an identity that changes everything.

Simply Trust and Obey
This is what salvation is all about. In return for this beautiful gift that we could never have earned, all we can offer to our Lord and Savior is a life fully surrendered to Him.


One Unsuspecting Moment
You can spend a lifetime praying for God to work and then one unsuspecting moment can bring His answer.

Less of Me
Less of me, more of Him. Sounds like a pretty good recipe to me.

Lessons from the Lake
Deep down we’ve all imagined the water-walking experience. But, sadly, we tend to merely dangle our toes in the shallows.

What Would You Do?
There will always be an enemy who seeks to destroy your testimony and work for the Lord. Don’t lose focus. Keep working for Him and respond accordingly.

Spiritual Amnesia
The cure for spiritual amnesia is daily doses of turning to Jesus.

Cleaning Out the Pot
Unless we are filled with something meaningful and lasting, we will never see true growth or fruit. We must be filled with the Holy Spirit.

Chasing Shade
God teaches us and works in and around us in times of ease and in times of difficulty.

Keep Seeking and Knocking
Keep going to the Lord. Keep asking, seeking and knocking. You’ll find more than you ever imagined.

Don’t Reject Jesus
We have the opportunity to cry out to our God and confess our sins, seeking His help to repent of those sins and follow Him.

Swim Hole
God offers us Living Water, but we often look to everything else for refreshment.

Know That You Know
When God tests our faith, or when He tells us to test our faith, it is for the purpose of giving us assurance and revealing the truth.

A Teachable Moment
Jesus has the power to cleanse us from all unrighteousness and shame.

All Eyes On You
All eyes are looking to you, waiting, searching for how to respond.

God is With Us
Not only did Jesus experience the hills and valleys, but He promises to be with us as we travel this earth. Whether we are on the mountain top of victory or feeling defeat in the valley, God is with us.

Rise Up and Follow God
Is it a fight to follow God? You bet. But, as we see with Elijah, it’s worth the fight. It’s when God shows up and does the impossible.

Destruction
Jesus has power over it all. He came to save us from the destruction of Satan and death, but what will we do when He offers us that salvation?

Where is Our Faith?
We too can go to Jesus and beg for His help just as the disciples did, but we must have faith that He is in control.

Our mistakes don’t have to define us—they are there to refine us.

Search Me, O God
Sometimes even the easiest lessons can be the hardest to learn. Far too often, we are focused on the mistakes and sins of others that we don’t even recognize our own need of repentance.

Mercy. Grace. Forgiveness. Love.
I want to be more like Christ. I want to show others the same kindness He has shown me.

Don’t Give Up
When we obey God’s voice, He will greatly reward and bless us far more than we can think or imagine.

Sources
Make the best choice to gently and prayerfully yield to His placement, His power source, and His sovereignty.

Is God Good?
Have you ever asked, “why do bad things happen to good people?” Perhaps you’re asking the wrong question.

Fear
Listen closely for fear’s lies this week. Allow the Holy Spirit to replace them with the Spirit-controlled life as your default setting…

Are We Willing?
