EAGLE OR CHICKEN? THE EAGLE RENEWS, THE CHICKEN BECOMES DINNER
The average life span of an eagle is about 70 years. That is a long time for a bird of prey to live. However, at about 40 years of age, the Eagle has some life-threatening things he has to deal with. His decisions now will determine if he gets a second chance at life.
By now, the Eagle's beak is old and useless, and their claws are worthless for hunting. Add to that ...
LOVE AND MARRIAGE, THE FOUNDATION OF THE NATION
Happy anniversary, Dr. George and Arlis, number 56. How did the number get so high so quickly? It seems like only yesterday, as they say, that this all started.
Many of you have heard my favorite story of how the Lord led me to meet my darling wife.
A small church in a remote town on the coast of Washington state. Sunday dinner and a picture on the mantle turned my life around and s...
TAKE YOUR REVELATION OF GOD, THE FATHER OUT OF THE BOX
Understanding the Trinity, a divine mystery, requires a revelation that only the Holy Spirit can bestow. In our quest to comprehend this profound truth, we are often confronted with the diverse opinions of gospel teachers. How can our natural reasoning, shaped by our western minds, grasp the concept of three in one and one in three?
In the 17th chapter of the Gospel of John, ...
EMPTY TRASH CANS
Gone gone, gone gone. Yes, my sins are gone.
Buried in the deepest sea. Yes, that's good enough for me.
I shall live eternally, praise God; my sins are
G O N E gone.
Some of you may have sung that song in Sunday school, but I know I did.
It took a few years to understand the Father's love for us and what Christ did on the cross to realize the full meaning of that simple song.
Yesterday was trash day in our neighb...
THERE IS NO REVERSE TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD-IT JUST KEEPS EXPANDING
In Matthew 6 from the Passion Bible, Jesus teaches the disciples how to pray.
We call this the lord's prayer. We should refer to it as the disciple's prayer.
Our beloved Father, dwelling in the heavenly realms,
May the glory of your name be the center on which our lives turn.
Manifest your kingdom realm,
And cause your every purpose is to be fulfilled on earth.
W...
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE BREATH OF GOD
Take a snapshot of Genesis 2:7. There, we see Adam's creation when God breathed the breath of life into him, and he became a living soul. That was the beginning of God's new creation of mankind.
God commissioned this new creation to take what they had in the Garden of Eden to the rest of God's creation, including the cosmos. Adam and Eve were created in God's image with the ability to reproduc...
BORN FOR THE STORM
Are you looking for a boat to go fishing? I suggest you get one that can withstand a storm. Do your research to see if it was made to resist High Winds and rough Waters. It needs to be constructed strong enough to withstand the pressures and dangers of the storm.
In this life that God has placed us in, he promised us that there would be storms in our lives. However, he spoke piece to us when he said to be unafr...
DO YOU KNOW JESUS IN THE PRESENT?
It's a simple question that I am asking today, and by doing so, I am bringing our attention to what it means to walk in the light as he is in the light. When we learn the practice of being in his presence as a daily habit, we know what it means to know Jesus in this present time.
Too many Christians know the Jesus who walked the shores of Galilee, healing the sick and feeding the 5,000. They have...
HEAVENLY GOLD, DISCOVERED BY THOSE WHO SEEK HIS FACE
The revelation of Jesus Christ and what he has done for us and through us is the greatest discovery you will ever dig out of the Scriptures. That revelation does not come from the wisdom or the intelligence of human thinking; it comes from the revelation of the Holy Spirit to our spirit.
Heavenly gold has to be mined out of the Scriptures just like earthly gold is dug out of th...
AT EVERY CHALLENGE, GOD CHALLENGES, THE CHALLENGER-WE WIN BY DEFAULT
The key ingredient in living a life of faith is exercising the muscle called obedience to the word of God that has been revealed to you. The revelation of the word of God is different than the information in the Bible. The scriptures tell us that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Rom 10:17
When Jesus said to those around him," he that hath e...
WHAT LABEL DO YOU LIVE UNDER?
What's wrong with this picture? The Protestant Reformation happened around 1500 years ago. It was a separation from the Catholic Church based on Martin Luther's revelation that the "just shall live by faith" and not by the rule of a church or under the control of a pope. Today, 30,000+ different labels of groups of people are trying to express what a Protestant is.
That's a lot of heavy bondage on t...
POCKETS OF WISDOM AND REVELATION
Why do some people in a large or small gathering who are listening to the word of God not hear the same thing? After a life of pastoring multiple churches, it's still beyond frustrating that someone can sit in the same congregation, hear the same message, and miss the point completely.
I conclude that the problem is not in the seed that's sown; according to the Book of Mark, the fourth chapter, i...
WHAT'S NEXT FOR US IN THE BODY OF CHRIST?
HERE'S A FLASH FOR YOU! You can expect change.
It is part of God's nature that he injected into everything he created. If it's not growing, it's dying. You can see that principle working in your garden or the landscape around your house. What isn't rooted in healthy soil is on the way to being a dead plant.
The plan of God has continued to grow in the long journey from Adam and Eve's crea...
NOW THAT YOU HAVE ASK HIM-DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE ANSWER?
The scriptures clearly tell us that if we ask anything in prayer believing, we shall receive it. That being true because the Scriptures do not lie, how many times can we ask for the same thing without being in unbelief?
I know that we always have the illustration of the woman who was dealing with the unjust judge. Because of that, she kept coming back until he, out of frustra...
GOD DOES NOT TEMPT ANYONE
The original sin of Adam and Eve seems to set a standard for others to follow. Two things stand out that have been identifiable throughout history.
Number one, I am a victim.
Number two, it wasn't my fault it was yours.
Listen to Adam as God is confronting him in the garden. "He said, "This woman you gave me, she caused me to sin."
Our society today has certainly taken that to new heights. Everybody is...
I WILL WATCH OVER WHAT I HAVE PLANTED
As I was preparing myself for my night, watch and a good nights sleep, I heard the voice of the Lord that said,” I will watch over what I have planted.”
Then I realized that the spirit of God was not talking about himself, he was talking about me.
An uncomfortable portion of the Christian community depends on God to do ever...
WE CAME FROM ABOVE, AND CHRIST TOOK US HOME
If I wanted to capture the mission of Jesus to earth in simple terms, I would call it. Gods rescue mission. The fathers plan from the beginning was to have created sons and daughters in his image. I like to refer to them as gods imagers.
Because Janice is 126 tells us that's what God intended when he created mankind that he would m...
JESUS IS NOT THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD-YOU ARE
As shocking as that may sound to the ear of the religious Christian, in all reality, it's true. When God said to the sons of God around him at the time, let us make man in our image, and let him have dominion multiply and fill the whole earth. It could only mean one thing: we are created with God's DNA in the very core of our spirit. The scriptures tell us that God is light. So buy that...
WHY THE APOSTLE PAUL DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW ANYONE AFTER THE FLESH?
Some would consider Paul's statement to be one of a hermit, or at best, a mystic who wanted to live in a cave. However, both of those thoughts are not true because Paul knew what it would take to make the bridge between Jesus, the man, and Jesus, the Christ, the son of God. In the book of Ephesians 3:3, Paul makes the statement. This wonderful mystery, which I briefl...
THE UNIVERSITY OF ANGELS-AND EVERYONE IS A PROFESSOR
I love Angels. As a matter of fact, I love everything that has to do with God's world. I love angels because God loves angels. I love angels because they have been created by the same God who created me. That makes us a unique family because we have the same father. However, I am also aware that even the angels remind us that we don't worship them because they have been given to...
