Use Your Weapon
In Ephesians 6:17 we are instructed to take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Our sword, our only weapon of offense, is the word of God. We need to know the word of God and how to use it in every situation. David knew his sling…

Keep Moving
Unless you are moving in a direction, God won’t be able to direct your footsteps. The only way God can steer you in the right direction, is if you are moving. Standing still is ok if you need to rest, but don’t stay there. Even a person walking in the wrong direction can be guided…

We all love the song and story of the little drummer boy. He had nothing to give except his talent of drumming. That pleased the Lord not because it was great drumming, but I think it was because he offered it with a pure heart that wanted to give something, and that was all he…

One day the bluebird was sitting in his comfortable nest, being at peace when he heard this “Tap-Tap-Tap”. He wondered what it was. So, he investigated the sound.

Dead End?
Sometimes it looks like there is a dead end on the path you are taking. But when you know you are on the right path, you press on. Then, after you have stepped forward, towards what looked like a dead end, do you see the hidden pathway that takes you onward. God has the map,…

Our Strong Tower
The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. Proverbs 18:10. Nothing on this earth can be trusted except Our Lord Jesus Christ. Things change and time moves forward. We must know Jesus intimately enough to know His voice. He is the Word, and we need to…
