Cleansed part 2

10/20/2018 17:19

We have been cleansed by the Word that Jesus spoke. The Word that Jesus is. Love. Love is what washed away all that junk that had piled up on the surface. Love is what reveals what is deep inside. The hidden man of the heart... no longer hidden when we let what's inside come out. And, in that way,...

This is tricky, but sometimes I try to tackle tricky subjects just because they ARE tricky. And because I tend to see things differently than most people do. So I try to provide a different perspective. As always, I'm not trying to say "I'm right, and you're wrong." I'm just trying to saw this is...

Glory part 5

Glory isn't earned. It is given. God was given glory in the highest when He gave us His only begotten Son. Glory is a response to something glorious happen. And I hope I'm doing an ok job of making the distinction between trying to earn it, and getting it because of who you are. Because trying to...

Glory part 4

We think of glory as something to be won. Or earned. But really, glory is given. Our God has supplied all our need according to His riches in glory. It was a gift. The gift of God. Eternal life. A life of love. Knowing love. Knowing that you ARE loved. And when you know that you are loved... you...

Glory part 3

Here's what I'm trying to build for us: God has supplied all our need according to His riches in glory. And that glory, given to us, is what equips and empowers us to give HIM glory. We simply receive and release what He gives us. He first loved us, and we love Him back (with that same love) by...

Glory part 2

My point in this Rant series (I think) is that we give God glory... because He's glorious. We don't PUSH (Pray Until Something Happens). We don't try to get God to move. He already moved. On the cross. And, really, from the foundation of the world. And, as I'm about to try to show you, when Jesus...

Glory part 1

I ended the last Rant series with the idea from Philippians 4:19, "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." And the next verse says, "Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen." Which got me to thinking. God has supplied all our...

There's a song by one of Logan's favorite bands that has this line in it: "When you can't hold on... hold on." Which makes no sense. But I understand the concept. Don't give up, no matter how bleak it looks. As my pastor always says, "When you get to the end of your rope... tie a knot in it." What...

Provision part 4

10/12/2018 20:01

My God SHALL supply all YOUR need. I know this because He HAS provided all MY need. I saw it. I saw the provision with my pro vision. With the light of the world shining, and making things clear. I'm a witness. I experience it, and now I can tell you about it. In order to edify you. Build you up....

Provision part 3

10/11/2018 20:00

There's a big difference between needs and wants. Believe it or not. What we want, in fact, is very rarely what we need. Keep this in mind when I show you my memory verse for today: "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). And...
