Saying YES!
When we say YES to Jesus, we begin to walk according to our destiny God designed for us. Our new connection to the Father is a vine tended by the Vinedresser. Our lives are fulfilled by the pruning He accomplishes in us by removing the bad fruit and trimming the vine, to produce more fruit …
Love is—Much More than Meets the Eye
He has told you, mortal one, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6:8 NASB Do we really know what love is? Love is mentioned in the Bible over 700 times. I would say that this four-letter word is important to God. …
Carrying the Heart of God
Jesus carried the heart of God during His earthly ministry. We also have that same opportunity in life. When we are adopted into the Kingdom of God, part of our inheritance that is available to us is to be able to move and operate as the Father chooses. The key to accepting your inheritance is, …
Holy Spirit Moments
I believe the Holy Spirit comes alive and runs through us as we act on burdens placed within us. These things can be produced by an impartation or a singular Holy Spirit Moment. These “inside” moments of spiritual knowing, creates an outward expression of God at work through us when we make the feeling a …
Giving Like You’ve Got
Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house.Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.

I decided that I wanted to create a blog to unpack my thoughts on this matter to help others who may …
Saying Yes in Unbelief
I was reading Mark 16:11-20 the other day and began to see how similar we are to the disciples of long ago. The questions that we have today about the wondrous ways of the Father, the signs and the miracles were also things these aged ones pondered. In fact, while reading Mark16, the Holy Spirit …
God Gives Good Gifts
I think the thing we most often forget is that everything we have been given by God is not actually for us but to be used through us. We are given spiritual gifts for the kingdom. These gifts given by God are for us to use and excel in them. I look at them as …
Wise Counsel
Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That you may be wise in your latter days. There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the Lord’s counsel-that will stand. Proverbs 19:20-21NKJV As I was reading my devotional today, the words wise counsel reminded me of a time when I was in Russia. I got a …
FAITH
Faith. It’s a small five-letter word packed with power, but so hard to define. There are many examples in the Bible of those who had faith, but how can we describe how it works in us? Have you ever thought about this word and tried to define it? Many times, when someone shares something with …
