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)

How Firm a Foundation

Matthew 7:24-27 “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.” Luke 6:46-49 “So why do you keep calling me ‘Lord, Lord!’ when you don’t do what I say? I will show you what it’s like when someone comes to me, listens to my teaching, and then follows it. It is like a person building a house who digs deep and lays the foundation on solid rock. When the floodwaters rise and break against that house, it stands firm because it is well built. But anyone who hears and doesn’t obey is like a person who builds a house without a foundation. When the floods sweep down against th...

Seeing by Faith

    When we are trying to live by faith, the things that inhibit us are the things that are right under our noses. We are trained to live based on the things around us. We don't believe anything if we don't see proof of it. The things around us are more our reality than what we say we believe in. But the Bible tells us that we are to walk by faith and not by sight. We are to live based on what we know is truth, not by what we see.     The things we see around us distract us from the reality we should be living in. What is unseen is eternal and more important than the things of this world. We need to fix our eyes on what is lasting and know the difference. We need to be filling ourselves with the word and not the world. When we are distracted by the world, we forget the truth. We become discouraged and doubt our faith. We need to draw strength from one another so that we may run the race with endurance.     What is determining your reality today? Is i...

Dancing Through the Fire

     For a couple weeks now the Lord has been pressing this message on my heart. He revealed a flaw in my thinking I hadn't noticed. You see, when hard times come it's in my nature to duck and cover. I go into "survival mode" and I get tunnel vision. I only focus on getting through what's in front of me alive. But in doing so, not only do I miss a lot of opportunities, but I give in to the voice of fear in my life.     I know I don't speak only for myself when I say that God wants to us in our "every day lives." Not only at church or on a special mission trip, but in the trenches of the grocery store, the gym, work, etc. It is His will that every soul is saved and He wants us to go out into the world and win those hearts for Him. But when I put myself in survival mode, I block out all the opportunities God lays before me. When I numb myself with the routine of each passing day, week, and month, I miss out on sharing the one thing of eternal importa...
