Is the Lord Your Sufficiency?
2 Corinthians 3:5 says, “Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;” Sufficiency is defined as “the condition or quality of being adequate or sufficient.” And “To have an adequate amount of something, especially of something essential.” Is God enough? Is His Word,… Continue reading Is the Lord Your Sufficiency?
Is the Lord Your Strength?
Strength is defined as 1.“the quality or state of being physically strong.” 2. “The capacity of an object or substance to withstand great force or pressure.” Life sure brings great force and pressure, doesn’t it? Trials, heartache, spiritual warfare, peer pressure, demands of others. It is all demanding and takes great strength to withstand. And… Continue reading Is the Lord Your Strength?
Is the Lord your Shepherd?
Psalm 23 gives us such an intimate understanding of Jesus. This is a very familiar Psalm, and I fear that we gloss over it out of familiarity. I want to look at this chapter today and simply ask you, is the Lord your Shepherd? David was a man after God’s own heart. He walked with… Continue reading Is the Lord your Shepherd?
Is the Lord Your Savior?
Is the Lord Your Savior? I live in southeast Tennessee, and when you ask someone if they are saved, most people will say yes, followed by their reasoning. They respond with statements such as, “Granddaddy was a preacher,” “I have always believed in God,” “I was raised in church,” or “I am trying to live… Continue reading Is the Lord Your Savior?

But there is so much more to Daniel than the lion’s den and his three friends getting thrown into the fiery furnace! I… Continue reading Daniel, The Young Man
Living Abundantly Through Grace
Grace is one of those things that just amazes me. Grace is something most of us want to receive. We know how precious it is, yet, we want to offer it less than we would like to receive it. Have we forgotten that it is by grace that we are saved, able to fellowship with… Continue reading Living Abundantly Through Grace
Murmurings & Disputings
Philippians 2:14 says, “Do all things without murmurings and disputings:” This is a command. God didn’t say to “try” or to “mostly” do things without murmurings and disputings. He also said all, and as you know, all means all. The context of this verse is Paul writing to the church of Phillipi. This verse is… Continue reading Murmurings & Disputings
Arise & Build
What is God asking you to build as a Christian, wife, and mother? Your faith? Your home? Your testimony? The heritage you are leaving for your children and grandchildren? I believe now, more than ever, women are under attack. Our femininity and place in the home are mocked and belittled. It is time to arise… Continue reading Arise & Build
The Meditations of your Heart
“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.” Psalm 19:14 Webster’s 1828 dictionary defines meditation as “Close or continued thought; the turning or revolving of a subject in the mind; serious contemplation.” What close or continuous thoughts are you… Continue reading The Meditations of your Heart
