Think on these things (Philippians 4:8-9)
My weekly or routine devotionals.
Read Proverbs 4:25-26 and Psalm 123:1-2 Driving down the road is easy if our eyes are fixed on the road but look to the left or right and it’s funny how the car drifts in the direction we look. Life is the same way. If we fix our eyes on …
Read Acts 28:1-15, where Paul, “thanked God, and took courage.” The significance of these words starts in Acts 27 where the chips were down in Paul’s life. In Acts 27, Paul was a prisoner, bound and shipped off to Caesar. He finds himself in a safe haven for the winter, …
Read Psalm 99, one of the Royal Psalms, presenting God as sovereign King. Elections seem to bring out the worst in the best of people — mudslinging, character assassinations become a norm, from candidates down to the grassroots. After what transpired around the previous election, what emerged into the current …
Read 1 Peter 2:13-16, which teaches us to get out and vote the will of God. The word submit means, “cause to be in a submissive relationship.” Then in the context of this passage, ordinance means, “a system of established authority that is the result of some founding action.” Applying …
I was asked by a few people whether or not I would endorse an event sponsored by a church to be a replacement for Halloween, like a light show or trunk-or-treat. My quick answer without hesitation was an absolute “no.” For me, shrouding the unrighteousness of the god of this …
Jesus said, “he that reapeth receiveth wages” (John 4:35-39). These words speak of reaping the souls of men out of the harvest field through soulwinning. Paul calls these “wages” “rewards” as he implores us to reap by faithfully preaching the Gospel. Paul said, “woe is unto me, if I preach …
Watching the aftermath of Hurricane Helene is heartbreaking. Our sending church in Shelby, NC was without power and had water damage. A good percentage of our supporting churches are in the mountains of North Carolina, and undoubtedly many will be severely impacted by this event. Knowing that Asheville, NC is …
So the posts that rode upon mules and camels went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king’s commandment… (Esther 8:14a) In Esther, we see the hatred of Satan for no other reason than Jews were God’s chosen people. They had done no act of violence, nor were a …
Those who live with anticipation understand the importance of preparation, in all areas of life. This was evident when I messaged a pastor in America this week and he replied that he was stacking 2 cords firewood. This reminded me that we are in different hemispheres — while we are …
Our mission in soulwinning is to go out to find souls that are heading to hell, then do something about it. As we go out, every aspect of soulwinning is needed: Bible, prayer, Holy Spirit. Yet, you can have all of these and still miss the one most important key …
