Greater is He

    Our God created the Heavens and the earth and everything in existence. He told the sun to shine. He designed and created humanity. He created it all from nothing and He alone rules over it all. So why do we get in our heads that anything could be impossible for Him? Why do we think that we could ever have a problem too big for our mighty God to handle? Why indeed. So today I challenge you to see the bigness of God.

Genesis 1:1-3 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. (ESV)

   Sometimes our problems seem so big and impossible. And they are! For us. But we know that nothing is impossible for our God! Remember that truth and choose to live in it today. Remember that we live through His power and not our own. Remember that He has you right in His hands and He sees everything that is going on in your life-- each detail-- and He has not forgotten you.

Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (NKJV)


    I just want to encourage every one of you to choose to change your mentality and recognize the power and authority of Jesus' name. He has power of everything on heaven and earth. And we have access to that through Jesus' sacrifice! Start living in that today! Start believing He can work miracles! The God who made it all most certainly can handle any difficulty you face today. He is greater!

John 14:13-14 Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it. (NASB)

Philippians 2:9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name (NIV)

Colossians 1:16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. (ESV)

Exodus 14:14 The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent. (ESV)

Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God. (NIV)

1 John 4:4 Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. (ESV)

He Time

     We have now gone over me time and we time, so today I want to address He time. It's a pretty simple concept-- that we have to spend time with Jesus to grow our faith. Just like anything else we want to get better at, you have to spend time doing it. In the case of Christianity, we are changed into the image of Jesus as we spend time with Him. 2 Corinthians 3:18 And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. (ESV)     My message is as simple as this-- make sure that you are setting time aside for Christ. You will never change if you don't continually immerse yourself into His presence. We need to be spending time in His word so we know His promises and guidelines for our life, in prayer to speak to Him for individual direction in our circumstances, and worshipping Him for His goodness.     Do not le...

Here's to New Beginnings!

    As 2014 begins, with it comes talk of a fresh start and new beginnings. Resolutions are made to eat healthier, save money, travel, learn a new skill etc. But as Christ followers, the new year is always a good reminder of who we are in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come. (HCSB) Galatians 2:20 and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. (HCSB) Ephesians 4:22-24 You took off your former way of life, the old self that is corrupted by deceitful desires; you are being renewed in the spirit of your minds; you put on the new self, the one created according to God’s likeness in righteousness and purity of the truth. (HCSB) Galatians 5:24-25 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let...

Knock-Knock

Revelation 3:20   Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. (ESV)     When you think of a gentleman what comes to mind? A man who holds open doors, pulls out your chair, and helps you with your coat? Whatever your definition is, one thing I think we can agree on is that a gentleman is never pushy. He is "gentle" and meek, respecting all those around him. To me, Jesus is the perfect example of a gentleman.     A gentleman never pushes for his way, but respects your thoughts and opinions even if they disagree with his own. But that doesn't mean that he lets his own beliefs fall to the wayside because of what you believe. Does that not describe Jesus? He waits for us to make our choices, but remains the same perfect, faithful and unchanging God. We were always created to have free will. We have a choice to have a relationship with Jesus, or not. To sin, or not. To...
