Aligning Yourself to Hear the Voice of God

August 10, 2011 — 7 Comments

God wants to be known. He wants to communicate with you, talk with you, to fellowship with you. He wants to share life with you.

He is personal.

He is near.

Some theology is just made to be painfully simple. As deep a study as the voice of the Lord can be, it can also be explained simply yet carry a profound truth.

Before I received the Lord in my life at the age of 16, I understood that there was a God somewhere…up there. I knew that He was supreme but I never thought that He wanted to talk with a 16 year old kid. But He did. I found that out for myself. Continue Reading…

This is the fourth in a series on how we are commanded to love God with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. These four ways need to be understood in order to love the Lord well.

How to Love God With All Your Mind

July 19, 2011 — 18 Comments

This entry is part 2 of 4 in the series How to Love God

This is the third in a series on how we are commanded to love God with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. These four ways need to be understood in order to love the Lord well.

Mark 12:30 “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength”

The renewed mind plays a vital role in loving Jesus. The Lord said that if we are ever going to understand the Kingdom our minds need to be constantly renewed (Matt. 4:17). In Romans 12:2 Paul states that a major part of being transformed into the image and likeness of Jesus must require our minds being renewed. It’ a big deal.

How the Apostles Sustained Revival with One Decision

July 13, 2011 — 16 Comments

If we are to be successful in sustaining revival we must prioritize Acts 6.

In Acts 6 the Apostles had to make a huge decision in prioritizing the Word and Prayer over ministry in the church.

Through the first five chapters in the book of Acts we witness the church exploding with power and the Presence of the Lord. The needs in the church were increasing. Problems surfaced. Needs had to be met. The pressure was on.

The Apostles made an all-important decision that we can all learn from. The problem they faced was never ignored but rightfully administrated without loosing their focus on keeping the First Commandment (Mark 12:30) in first place.

How to Love God with All Your Soul

July 6, 2011 — 30 Comments

This entry is part 3 of 4 in the series How to Love God

Luke 10:27 “He answered: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind…’”

How do you love the Lord with all your soul? This is a huge question. We need to know the answer to this because it is one of the four things Jesus said we need to do in order to love God completely.

We love the Lord with all our soul by living a life of faithfulness to all that the Lord has required of us. While loving the Lord with all our heart has to do with affection, loving the Lord with all our soul has to do with devotion.
