Following Me
Remember the old Cat Stevens song; “I’m being followed by a Moonshadow…”? You may think I’m weird, but I still like his old music; even if he is kind of a strange cat. Not exactly sure what a moonshadow is, but it doesn’t really matter. You see, I’m being followed by several different things; things…

A Package Deal
Day Twelve. Rest and Jesus; a package deal. “Praise the Lord who has given rest to his people Israel, just as he promised. Not one word has failed of all the wonderful promises he gave through his servant Moses.” (1 Kings 8:56 NLT) “Has given rest…” is fulfilled in His Son, Jesus. He is our…

Deliverance
Day Eleven The promises of God include deliverance. Now, before you ask, “What kind of deliverance?” and begin writing down all the scriptures you know about Christians and demons… allow me to ask a question or two.

Menagerie of Madmen

It’s reported that Boko Haram, a Nigerian Islamist (Jihadist and terrorist) militant group, has joined their brothers in arms in imposing Islamic rule both near and far. Again, how nice.

Too Good To Be True?
Day 10 There’s just something about the promises of God that are both exhilarating and discouraging. Surprised at my choice of words? Well, have you ever said this: “That sounds too good to be true”? Then you should know what I mean. At times, the promises of God SEEM too good to be true; but…

Eight Life Changing Words
On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” (Mark 4:35 ESV) “Let us go across to the other side.” You may or may not know the story. Jesus had just finished telling his disciples about the importance of God’s word. He used phrases such…

Day Nine
God’s Provision #1 “Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8), is a true word from Heaven for every person who’s ever lived, and who is living now. The word is: God’s mercy, compassion, power, love, and, of course, His promises have not faded away. Nothing Heaven has to offer is out of…
