As a parent, it's so easy to get distracted by shiny and enticing life goals that look important, but are really only temporary. In most healthy parents, there is a great desire to help their children to experience the best life they can have. We see our children's strengths and weaknesses and try to point …
21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for Our Children and Grandchildren – Day 18 Wisdom and Revelation
For those who know me, you will be very familiar with today's passage. It's from Paul's prayer for the Ephesians. Even though I wrote a bible study on the book of Ephesians, with an emphasis on praying Paul's prayer for wisdom and revelation, I need this reminder today. It's easy to get busy trying to …
21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for Our Children and Grandchildren – Day 17 Don’t Give Up!
When I started this 21 days of prayer and fasting, I felt led to put the same challenge out to other parents and grandparents (and g-g's!). The first blog had 150 reads. Day 5 has 55. Day 16 has 10. I know that fasting is hard. But, when I wake up in the morning and …
21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for our Children and Grandchildren – Day 11 Dwelling Place for Generations
Psalm 90 is a song of Moses. Moses lived 40 years in the palace of the Pharaoh of Egypt, 40 years in the wilderness running from his consequences and his last 40 years leading the children of God out of slavery and toward the Promised Land. His perspective as the prophet of God who gave …

The Encouragers
Some people in the body of Christ have a special gift to encourage. The first encourager listed in scripture was Barnabas. “Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas (which means ‘son of encouragement’), sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles’ feet.”Acts 4:36-37 Barnabas …
Give Me Self-discipline, Lord!
A well quoted verse is 2 Timothy 1:7. The well known part of the verse is this: "For God has not given us a spirit of fear!" I have quoted this to myself and others for years — even decades. But, today it came to me with fresh eyes and revelation. Let's look at the …
Judge Not? What Did Jesus Mean?
No one likes that feeling of being judged. It feels terrible to know that someone doesn't like you based on a decision or even just based on hearsay and gossip. Just not wanting to be judged is enough to make me not want to make anyone else feel that way! But, what did Jesus actually mean by judge not, lest you be judged? Well, as with anything we hear anyone say, we need to take it within the context of what he was saying at the time, as well as with what he taught consistently throughout his ministry. We also need to read it in the context of the full counsel of the Word of God.
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 40 -Strength to Stand in Suffering
"I feel I have a divine mandate to go and tell the people of this world that it is possible to be strong in the Lord Jesus Christ. We are in training for the tribulation, but more than sixty percent of the Body of Christ across the world has already entered into the tribulation. There is no way to escape it. We are next." Corrie Ten Boom
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 39 – Stay the Course- Finding Truth in the Middle of Chaos
Paul tells the people that the rapture or the catching away of the church will not happen until the rebellion occurs and the Man of Lawlessness is revealed. I believe we have been in the middle of a the great falling away for several years now. Left and right people are experiencing what they call "deconstruction of faith." Soon, I believe we will see the unveiling of the Man of Lawlessness. The church will see it.
