In Biblical Christianity we value the nuclear family - father, mother, and children all in the roles that God lays out for each person. The husband should love his wife as Christ loved the Church and laid his life down for her. The wife should respect her husband. The children obey and honor their father …
21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for Children and Grandchildren – Day 6 Walking on Water
When asking God for miracles, we need to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus. Why is it important to remember this? Because, we generally only need miracles when we are in an epic life-storm. In a storm, the sky is dark, the wind is howling, lightening is flashing, and waves are crashing. In other words, …
Jesus Carries Our Suffering
Sometimes pain can come on in an unexpected moment, such as when you step barefoot onto a sharp object, or when you suddenly lose a loved one. Other times, the pain is a deep ache of an old injury that resurfaces with a change in weather - or when your past emotional pain is triggered …
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 32 – Fearless
We fast because we are fixing our eyes on the one who loves us. We fast because we do not want to walk in fear. We fast, because we are asking the Lord to deliver us in our weaknesses. We fast, because we believe the Lord when he promises us to answer us and to give us breakthroughs. We fast, because God calls us to fast. We trust he knows what is best.
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 28 – Pray for Our Pastors and Teachers
Your fasting matters. Don't let the devil tell you it won't do anything! It will tear down his kingdom and build up the Lord's kingdom. God uses humble men and women of God to do his will. When we fast and pray we include God in the relationship, instead of trying to do everything ourselves without him. We cannot win this battle apart from prayer and fasting, and when we do, it may look way different than we anticipate. This is why we must press into the throne of grace. God will give us strength in our inner beings to walk with Christ in our hearts through faith. (Eph 3)
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting- Day 24- Lift Up the Fallen
During today's prayer time, we are going to press in for those who are wounded on the spiritual battle field. The Lord is leading to uphold those who are in pain, doubt and are running away. We are going to intercede for those who will spiritually bleed to death, if we don't intercede. This is …

40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 8 – Persevere
It's easy to boast in the glory of God. Not so easy to glory in suffering. Suffering is not fun at all! So, if that is the case, then why in the world would we subject ourselves to something like fasting? Well, I consider- and I bet God does too- that things like perseverance, character and hope are worth a lot more to me than fun.
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 6 When I Am Weak
I have sensed such an overwhelming sadness today. I personally am not sad about anything for myself, yet I cried. As I prayed about it, I realized that the Lord was letting me feel the weight or gravity of the trials that many people I love are facing. There are people who are suffering from …

Reading the Signs of the Times- (and surviving them!)
All this time at home has me thinking. For years, I have been looking for the words to speak on and/or write about the conundrum facing the church in our times. My soul has felt unsettled for years, perhaps even a little disturbed, concerning what I can only describe as bad "weather" approaching. The Pharisees …

When a Believer Feels Alone
Does this picture of me look like I am alone in the dark? Does it look like I'm having a bad day? Honestly, this picture was taken on a really terrible weekend, when I underwent an intense spiritual and physical attack. It was the third weekend of February. I spent the weekend in the hospital …
