Years ago, while driving home in my car, I was pouring my heart out to God about the conditions of the world and how to deal with all the seeming chaos and threats. It was then that He told me, "There is never a reason to fear." It was as if Jesus spoke again to … Continue reading Take Courage Joshua 1:9 – Part 3

Under His Wings I Will Trust Psalm 91:4b
I can only remember one short period of riding a bus to school. Mostly, we walked. There were times when I dreaded it. What did we do with the books? You see backpacks weren't considered gear for students then. I think the reason I’m not any taller is because of the volumes I jostled and … Continue reading Under His Wings I Will Trust Psalm 91:4b
Where Are You Dwelling? Psalm 91:1a
Our world is in crisis mode and many are turning to Psalm 91 for help. While I wrote about this psalm years ago, I feel compelled to bring it into the light for review. It's going to take some time. It will not be a microwave meal but it will equip you for years to … Continue reading Where Are You Dwelling? Psalm 91:1a
What is the Shield of Faith? Armor of God Part 5
Before I began digging into the meaning behind the armor of God, I didn't realize how big the Shield of Faith is. This picture may look a bit strange to you. However, the word Shield symbolically means to shield like a door. A 'door.' Does that ring any bells with you? In John 10:17, Jesus … Continue reading What is the Shield of Faith? Armor of God Part 5
God Has the Operations Manual for Our Times
God's word is timeless. He gave me this in 2014 and it still holds weight today in our crazy upside-down world of the coronavirus: "You are stepping into new territory. You’ve never been this way before. What has worked in the past, will no longer suffice. You must come to Me for supplies and instructions. … Continue reading God Has the Operations Manual for Our Times
God is GOOD
I love it when Holy Spirit leads Bible Study. Two weeks ago, we looked at this verse and the word highlighted was ‘trusts.’ Psalm 34:8 Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! When we looked into the Hebrew spelling and its meaning, we discovered it … Continue reading God is GOOD
Monday Manna — Almost but Not Yet – The Mystery of the Kingdom
We all have seasons of unmet expectancy. Still, in my almost 75 years of life, I've never seen so many in the Body all experiencing this at the same time. I came across this in my journals today from 2013 and just reading it removed some of the tension and renewed my hope. May you … Continue reading Monday Manna — Almost but Not Yet – The Mystery of the Kingdom
Love Letters from Elohim – It’s About Your Heart–Just Say Yes.
There was a time when I so wanted to know my assignment. I kept asking Abba, "What do You want me to do? Where do You want me to serve?" One morning, as I continued to press in for an answer, He said, I want you to see more fully that My love for you … Continue reading Love Letters from Elohim – It’s About Your Heart–Just Say Yes.
Monday Manna – Attitude Adjustment Needed
It was May 2008. Our home had been on the market for some time but there was little sign of it selling. I was asking the Lord again about the timing and delay: “Lord are You waiting on our cooperation in some way or are there other factors?” “It’s My wisdom to wait." He said. … Continue reading Monday Manna – Attitude Adjustment Needed
Monday Manna – If You Need Help, REST
After a week of ministry, I returned home. Family was coming on the weekend to visit. I needed to hit the ground running. So much to do and so little time to accomplish it. But first---I had to spend some time with my Creator: I went into my prayer room and closed the door. … Continue reading Monday Manna – If You Need Help, REST
