6/02/26 Sell Out to Jesus

“You delight My heart. I so look forward to the time when We can be together for all eternity. I have created you to have fellowship with Me. At present, Our being together is hindered by time and your limited understanding and abilities. Soon, however, there will be no limitations to Our interaction. You will be able to enjoy all that I have planned for you from the very beginning of time.

“Until then, keep up the good work. Sell out to Jesus. Be an encouragement to those who need to see His love. Love others deeply and live for their best interests. Your rich example of living a crucified life will give many the hope that He has provided for them at the cross. I love you. Live your life to the fullest in Him. When you are finished, be prepared for a wonderful time together. You will be blessed beyond your wildest imagination.”

Genesis 1:27-28a AMP

27) So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God He created him: male and female He created them.

28) And God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it [using all its vast resources in the service of God and man]…

Isaiah 48:3  NIV

“I foretold the former things long ago, my mouth announced them and I made them known; then suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.”

Rom. 5:17 NIV

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ.

 

So many of us get so caught up in the day-to-day concerns that we forget about the wonderful inheritance that has been provided for us because of the blood of love that was shed for us many years ago. Jesus accomplished much more for us than we will ever comprehend while we are in these limited bodies.

Soon, we will see Him as He is in all His glory. Until then, we have a job to do. We have the privilege of representing Him to those who need to have answers for their lives. Knowing that He is the only answer, we can confidently share what each of us has been given - a love beyond measure, a life full of answers, and a promise beyond our most imaginative dreams.

Thank You, Lord,

6/02/26 Choices

Life is full of choices. Some are major and some mean little in the long run. The choices you make as a husband and father have great impact. They not only affect how your marriage works and how well your children do in life; they also affect their eternal well-being.

If you don’t prioritize your life for the Lord, you sentence your children to learn what life is all about from their peers. School, society, movies, music, and social networking all play an influential part in their lives. Normally, none of those sources impart anything about Jesus and how important He is for real life. You hold the key to their introduction to Him.

Living your life with the priority of following Christ is the only antidote strong enough to combat all the worldly values your children face. You, as their father, have been given the responsibility of raising them up with a full commitment to Jesus. They’ll be able to see who He really is by you living His life before them. Even though it’s an incredible responsibility, you will find a corresponding joy as you see their lives fall in line with His desires.

6/01/26 From Physical to Spiritual

“When you come to Me with your requests, you make the transition from the physical to the spiritual. Your physical needs are placed in My hands where I apply My spiritual power to accomplish them. The difference is so great that it is beyond your comprehension. One word from Me begins an unbeatable process toward the completion of everything needed. Come to Me with your needs. Come often. I reassure you, I will listen, and I will attend to everything My way in My perfect timing.”

Gal.3:3 NIV

Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?

 

If we ever really understood the concept of placing everything in God’s hands and leaving it there, most of us would finally find freedom. One glimpse into the spiritual realm, one instant of the revelation of the mightiness of the Almighty, and our whole lives would change forever.

Show me truth, Lord,

6/01/26 Where Are You?

In the movie Courageous, the main character stands in front of his church and says: “So where are you, men of courage? Where are you, fathers who fear the Lord? It’s time to rise up and answer the call that God has given to you, and to say ‘I will. I will. I will.’” In somewhat the same way, I believe the Lord is asking you and me where we are in defending His principles on marriage. Do we believe it’s the highest institution He ever created? Do we understand He is calling men to restore their offices of husband and father? Where do we stand on the issue of rescuing our children from the lies and patterns of the world, while helping other men to do the same?

Man of God, where are you regarding the onslaught aimed at your marriage and family? How willing are you to prioritize your life when it comes to God’s desire that your marriage and family honor Him in every conceivable way? What are you prepared to do to make sure your marriage is an example of the relationship between Jesus and His church, and that your children are an example of His love to their generation? If those questions are not your priority, what is your priority?

6/20/26 Godly Men

From the book, The Father Factor, by Jim and Merry Corbett

Father God’s goal for your life is that you become all you can be in Christ Jesus. So if your goal is to head toward becoming a pathetic, frail, atrophied, self-serving loser in this world, while claiming to be a follower of the ways of His glorious, all-powerful Son, don’t look for Him to help you get there. There is no more important mission on His heart than the mission that Jesus has for you. There is no more powerful way for Jesus to be glorified than to have valiant spiritual warriors, who are unwilling to compromise, unwilling to turn away until the battle for souls has been won and the last enemy of the cross experiences the eternal consequences of his choices.

The Lord is cheering you on and doing everything in His power so that you can come to a full realization of who He created you to be both now and in eternity. His great desire is that you walk in the fullness of the overcoming, victorious life in Christ that is available to you.

Let’s talk more!
