Life Journeys

When Charlie was killed, God’s word came quickly, “You’ve seen what man can do. Now get ready for what I can do.”  The deafening sound of mercy rang out. Forgiveness is forged in blood - the price of freedom given by the truly free soul. It’s time to liberate America by loving our enemies at any cost.

Find something worth dying for, and then spend your life living for something that will last for eternity. Sacrifices that come from love and by faith forge an identity that can save our eternal lives and nation. It means living the truth, not just claiming it. Hell’s gates won’t prevail against you.

It was a martyrdom - the labor pains of a great birthing. A million Charlie Kirks will rise up. Jesus promised that our sorrow shall be turned into joy! The blood of the martyrs has always been the seed of the kingdom of God. Charlie died standing for his Master. So who are you standing for?

God doesn't usually help me by giving all the answers about why I suffer. Faith is its own answer. He helps by giving me himself. It’s about who I am becoming whatever I am going through - about changing me, not just my circumstances, until I am as His word in human form. He’s not against us.

Shame can be a symptom of failed self-esteem pursuits instead of relying on grace. It is the fruit of religious self-effort, an emblem of wounded pride. God gives the oil of joy for mourning. He buries shame in a double blessing of mercy. Show me your self-esteem, and I'll show you my divine-esteem.

“I want to be different. I fail too often.” Then, look beyond your own thoughts. They’re what got you into this mess. Renew your mind on the mercy of God. Then, sacrifice. It’s the bedrock upon which a renewed mind  transforms lives. Sacrifice some of your time to God. You’ll be supernaturally changed.

When Job played the victim card  and said he didn’t deserve such suffering, God came in a whirlwind with a revelation of majesty that exposed his self-righteous heart. Upon repenting, his life was restored. He found that God uses all His creation to say, “I will take care of you.”

Neither our bodies, nor finances, diseases, possessions or people need define our life. Without Jesus, we have existence, but not life. He defines the future, and His glory defines our intended life. Your soul need never long for peace, value, or love. He gives life with no shame or regrets. Dare to let go of your life.   Click https://bit.ly/m/Life-Journeys to find a list of your favorite platforms for this podcast!

Many try to define God by their pain saying, "My hard life is the source of the truth of the mysteries of the universe and existence itself." God showed Job, “When you accept that I am in charge in your pain, then you can accept that I am in charge of your deliverance." Self-righteous reality never wins.

Your soul doesn't want a vacation, more money, health, or possessions. It wants what it was created to experience - the manifestation of a son of God in glorious liberty from all that holds you back. The Holy Spirit can work in you to insure that neither hardship nor moral failure define you.

Every challenge is the bedrock of an invitation to come into God’s presence. Ongoing discovery of God by revelation unlocks encounters with His glory. He’ll impart Christ’s image to you, and you will see yourself as God intended, and you’ll be changed. He has infinite good thoughts about your future.

I must have faith that Christ can light up the tombs of this world where my carnal life is entangled in powerlessness. Instead of finding despair and defeat, His light will surely prevail. Brought to the edge of despair, my Shepherd led me into the valley of the shadow of death to show me how to fear no evil.

As in marriage, American unity won't work by demanding what we think we deserve. When a man is trying to find his inner needs through his wife instead of from God, he’s made an idol out of her that she can never live up to.  Life with dignity and respect works by grace verses our heightened sense of justice.

It takes something supernatural to live the life we were born for. Jesus pleads our cause on the grounds of justice as One who died for us. He can say nothing good of us that will win the day. He alone restores us into divine favor. We’ll never arrive at a place where we no longer need a Savior.

Every nagging jab that eats the soul away little by little until nothing’s left is where supernatural life can begin. Never say, “I did good. Why's this happening?” Only your cross can bring you indestructible life. It’s not found in your features or flaws. Your cross is the beginning, not the end.

We were born that way, but we don’t have to die that way. It’s called sin. We’ve all got it, and there is a Savior. We can live by faith instead of being led by feelings. This is not Pride Month; it’s called June. One problem - too many preachers are telling us what to do, and too few are preaching the power of faith.

It is not the presence of life's storms that defeats us; it is the absence of Christ's presence. Don’t act like you don't have a Savior! Suffering doesn’t mean God has something against you. Seek Him until you find Him. It's that simple, really. Every time you entertain fear, you’re allowing your heart to defy His promises.

What do I fear? What do I want? Fears and hopes become the substance of what is truly ruling my life. Faith that doesn't set me free is usually blocked by an idol that is demanding I serve it. Fear, sorrow, or anger are signs of an idol manipulating and dominating me. Turning from it will release my faith.

God’s best for us is not what things He can give. His best is giving Himself to us. Too many people have tried to apprehend the love of God in the suffering in their world yet haven’t, because God isn't bigger to them than their world is. Have faith that Christ will light up the darkest tombs in your life.
