Proclaiming Psalms
To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul; Psalm 25:1 NIV* They are strong and powerful, ushering us into His presence, proclaiming His majesty and reminding us of Him. “They” are the Psalms. There is great strength in praying them back to our Lord. They stir the spirit and usher in…
Stolen Identity
The branches cease to bear; the land remains barren. It’s the land of stolen spiritual identity. We are heirs to the promise (Gal. 3:29), hearers of God (John 8:47), truly free (John 8:36), heard (Ps. 41:1), not triumphed over (Ps 41:11). Caleb & Joshua believed the Lord, having faith that battled solidly, and…
Praise the Lord
We’re heading into a new year; it’s the perfect time to sing praises to the Lord, just as the heavenly hosts do in Revelation. Job is a great book to find praises, and this list is taken from there, chapter 38 specifically. Praise the Lord as we head into a New Year! *…

Isn’t there turmoil surrounding the name of Jesus yet today? Even in the midst of Jesus’ birth, there’s a king fighting for…
He Is…A Prayer Answerer
Zechariah asked the angel, “How can I be sure of this?…” Luke 1:18a NIV* He had prayed, asking the King of kings to take away the barrenness, birthing forth fruit of the womb instead. Zechariah desired a child and took that desire to our Father in prayer. Gabriel had the privilege of bringing good news,…
The Churches, Part 2
The churches of Revelation; they offer insight and encouragement. Revelation is still somewhat a mystery to me, yet He is there, sitting in its midst. Shall we take a look at what our Lord warns & encourages with concerning some of the other churches in Revelation? Pergamum: A church who remained true and did…
