Stay Connected
Abiding not only keeps us spiritually healthy, but abiding also impacts others as we live connected to the life-giving, life-sustaining nourishment that comes from the Vine.
Devotions
YHWH is ...
In Christ, we are different, set apart, unique. We become "other" as we bear the image of our Father, who is "completely other".
"I AM" No Coincidence
The Gospel of John records seven times Jesus described Himself as "I am..." and not by coincidence.
The Sacred Name
The Name of the Lord is hallowed, holy, sacred, and should be honored, revered, and carefully guarded from misuse or abuse.
Spirit-Empowered Skill
Bezalel was the FIRST person in Scripture recorded as being filled with the Holy Spirit. Bezalel functioned as a Spirit-filled "creator" called and anointed by YHWH.
Many Voices - One Truth
If what we read, hear, or share doesn't align with God's truth, it should be rejected! There are many voices in today's world, but only one Truth!
Living Where God Dwells
Jesus invited us to abide in Him, not work harder or try better. It's an invitation to live consciously in His presence.
Beware!
The One True God alone is to be feared above all, by all, and in all.
Reformatted God
The world needs to see God as True, Just, Holy, Righteous, and Pure.
When Obstacles Become Gold Mines
We must come to understand that God may be forming a gold mine of endurance, wisdom, compassion, and deeper trust in Him through our trials.
Innovative Sacrifice
The same fire that signals YHWH's nearness becomes lethal when approached wrongly. Innovation in worship is not neutral – it can be rebellion.
God Speaks Hope
“God is faithful to save His people, even when the situation looks hopeless—and His future deliverance may not look like the past.”
Believing Loyalty
“Believing Loyalty” is a term describing how biblical faith actually works—not mere mental assent, but trust expressed through allegiance and action.
In Excelsis Deo
We literally join with the Hosts of Heaven, proclaiming YHWH as the Most High God, the One True God, the Creator who made heaven and earth.
Mighty to Save
Whether we be trapped by sin that so easily besets us, our God is “mighty to save!"
Boundaries
The boundary line was non-negotiable; crossing it came with consequences.
Out of Context
If we take the time to look closely at their context, scriptures we frequently quote are actually misapplied!
Empowerment
Peace is the result of being empowered by the Spirit to achieve His purposes through us – spreading the Good News.
