We tend to seek a mate first and then ask for God's blessing later. But what would it look like if we reversed that by seeking God and then allowing Him to direct our steps? When we put God first before moving forward in a relationship, He guides and directs us to the blessing of marriage the way He intended it to be.

Immediate Family

23 hours ago

—

God is all about using imperfect families to carry out His purpose in the world. When we decide to follow Jesus, we get to share that with our families and set a new example for the ones we lead. Choosing Jesus means two things: 1) we're automatically part of His family, and 2) no matter how chaotic your family might be, God can still use it to make a huge impact across generations.…

Getting Out Alive

2 days ago

—

The devil's only mission is to steal, kill, and destroy. He spends every moment plotting to keep us trapped in the snares of sin. There's life after death -- eternal life with God -- but so many people don't even know it exists, or believe they have a chance at that life. It's our job to fight against the devil's lies and spread the Word during our time here on earth so we can help other people to get out alive.…

Sorry For Your Loss

4 days ago

Salvation secures us from being lost and separated from God forever. But our spiritual journey doesn't end there! When we give up our lives for the sake of following Christ, we gain heavenly rewards that can never be taken away.

Idiotsyncracies

Ever heard the phrase, "Do as I say, not as I do?" The Bible is clear in calling out hypocrites who teach one way to live, and then live out something completely different themselves. It doesn't matter how we look or act on the outside if on the inside, our heart isn't right with God -- and when we have a genuine relationship with Him, it'll be evident in the spiritual fruit that's produced in our lives.…

Put A Fork In Me

6 days ago

—

Throughout the Bible, there are stories of people who felt overwhelmed and wanted to quit the tasks God had given them. We all have those moments when we’re ready to throw in the towel, but God is still working. Even when we feel like we’re done fighting and struggling, He is never "done" with us.

Blind Man’s Bluff

7 days ago

—

We can study the Bible all we want, but until we're given fresh eyes through the Holy Spirit, we will never be able to truly see and know God. In order to grow deeper in our relationship with Him, we can start by asking Him to reveal Himself to us through His Spirit in Scripture.

Milk Duds

8 days ago

—

When we're born again as new Christians, it's important that we receive "milk", or spiritual nourishment, from more mature believers. But eventually, we have to be weaned off and learn to chew on "solid food"! As we grow in our relationship with God, we're then able to turn and help feed other new Christians in their faith.…

Out Of Focus

9 days ago

—

The most effective way for someone to become a truly great leader is for them to already be following someone else. And when we follow Jesus Christ, we're called to become leaders ourselves, make disciples, and teach others to do the same. Discipleship and leadership have to be the focus of the Church -- otherwise, we get out of focus and lose our purpose as the Body of Christ.…

In Writing

11 days ago

—

When God gave us Scripture, He documented His works and His promises in writing -- all so that we might believe and be changed. But knowing the Word of God and believing the Word of God are two different things. And when we believe it, the power of His Word transforms our lives and we bear spiritual fruit as a result.…

I’m Sorry

12 days ago

—

There's a difference between saying "I'm sorry" and actually meaning it! Just because God offers us mercy and forgiveness doesn't mean we get to take it lightly. True repentance comes with deep sorrow when we realize what we've done wrong -- and genuine change follows as a result.

Less Is More

13 days ago

—

God isn't interested in sharing the glory He deserves. That's why we often experience situations that require us to put our full trust in Him and Him alone. We need to first start believing that He's for us, not against us -- and then we need to put that faith into action. When we trust God in seemingly impossible circumstances, we get to see His glory shine through our lives in a way that reflects back on Him.…

The Spirit’s Sword

14 days ago

—

God's Word has the power to work in us to expose our hearts -- and our sin. But it also has the power to renew and redeem us. Instead of running from biblical conviction, let's lean into it with a desire to be more obedient to Him.

It Crossed My Mind

15 days ago

—

All over the world, you can find monuments that have been built to remember men and women who gave their lives for a cause. It's important for us to remember the cost of these earthly battles -- but we also need to keep in mind that there's another battle raging constantly for the eternal future of our souls. Jesus gave His life to win that battle for us, but it's up to us to choose which side we're on.…
