★Gifts & Fruits of the Holy Spirit

The Greek word used throughout the New Testament to describe spiritual gifts is CHARISMA. The basic idea regarding the work charisma is that of a free gift (something unearned, undeserved or unmerited). The Holy Spirit gives or distributes His giftings to members of Christ’s body to minister His grace to people. The primary purposes of…

Living Worry Free – Matthew 6:25-34

How is it possible to enjoy the journey and not be anxious in your heart and mind? Jesus gives the answer in Matthew 6. What does Jesus say that changes our perspective? He tells us to look at the birds, look at yourself, look at the lilies and look at the heathen. Blessed reading as…

Toiling In Rowing – Mark 6:45-52

What’s Right With The Church – Colossians 1:1-27

The Vineyard of the Soul – Song of Solomon 1:1-16

I love how Solomon writes about the “beloved”. I love the fact that Jesus wants to spend time with us in prayer. And yet, we must be ever on guard to protect the vineyard of our heart. Why?

Victory Secured – Exodus 17:8-16

Sacred Fire – Leviticus 6:8-13

Leviticus teaches us incredible truth about worship; how God supernaturally started the fire at the altar before the tabernacle and how the priests must tend to the fire (so it will never go out). Notice God’s great instruction surrounding the ashes, garments and the wood. Remember God’s word to our hearts; “The fire shall ever…

Condemnation Gone For Good – Romans 5:12-21

Does the mercy of the gospel really triumph over every sin? Is it really foolish to entertain unworthy feelings? Is the past really past in the sight of God?
