Mk.4:35 – On that day, when evening came, He said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side”. I have been kind of stuck on this story from the gospel of Mark since Ida came ashore last week. It seems like Jesus is familiar with storms and apparently reveals Himself through them all along. …
Deep calleth unto deep. Psalm 42:7 Men and women who have effected the world in profound ways walked with God through the valley of the shadow of death. David spent years living in caves running for his life. Jonah encountered God in the belly of a fish. Paul was jailed and beaten numerous times in …
More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ. Do you know Jesus? That is a common phrase heard amongst evangelical …
Phil. 2:13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. This verse reminds us of our utter dependence upon God. Any good that we do originates in heaven. It is Christ in us, nudging and empowering us to go forward. It is the will and …
Psa. 110:3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth. This describes the biggest problem man has; he knows what is right but way too often finds himself in the midst of a conflict. …

May your will be done. MATTHEW 26:42 Our will is a huge part of our life. Desire and the pursuit of happiness are pretty much at the bottom of all of our decisions and actions. When man was first created, our free will was a beautiful part of our being, choosing to love and honor …
Luke 22:42 saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” Sometimes God’s will is not as obvious as you think. You may want to win the world, empty the hospitals of the sick, and maybe even raise the dead and still totally miss the …
YOUR KINGDOM COME Matt. 6:10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Let your kingdom come, in my life. That’s where revival must start, it has to start in your own heart. We had morning prayer in our church for many years. It started somewhere around 1979 and …
ALL THINGS LOSS Phil. 3:7-8 ¶ But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that …
