Fight The Good Fight Of Faith By : Mark E. Baker God’s Word tells us to fight the good fight of faith. We are called to be spiritual warriors in God’s kingdom. We are soldiers in the Army of God. The Greater One Within By : Mark E. Baker This should be the heart cry of every believer. The greater One lives within me. It is because of the Greater One that lives within me that I am victorious... Such As I Have By : Mark E. Baker The Apostles Peter and John went into the temple at the ninth hour, or hour for prayer, and the lame man was healed. This was a rather spectacular miracle in that this man was a well known beggar. There was no way any body could deny what had happened. They all were very well aware of him as they saw him daily at this gate. Peter gave the lame man something in his possession. Peter had something that he was aware of, that was in his power to give at his own discretion... Things that can not be Shaken By : Josprel There may be times when personal “earthquakes” shake our own lives. As we pass through them, it will stabilize and bless us to meditate on things that cannot be shaken. Entertained by a Sinner By : Josprel Christ Jesus seeks hospitality. Selecting you from among earth’s teeming population, He is asking that you open the door of your heart to receive Him. Hear His call for your hospitality, “Listen! I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come into his house and eat with him, and he will eat with me” (Rev. 3:20; TEV). Devoted to What? By : Elizabeth Marks, author of ThinkOnIt Devotions The world will know what we're devoted to by our life. Age of Seduction By : DeAnna Brooks Historians love to categorize periods of man’s history. They study a timeframe until they believe they’ve discerned its prevailing attitude, and then stamp that attitude almost as a directive over all life caught between its pages. The Golden Age. The Dark Ages. The Age of Reason. The Enlightenment. The Industrial Revolution. You get the point. The Shepherd, The Sheep, and the Sacrifice By : DeAnna Brooks A canvas holding light, holding darkness, also holds sacrifice. Into Night's Darkness By : DeAnna Brooks Brilliant hues filled the western sky as the sun spoke its soothing benediction on the day. Yet an unbound restlessness still invaded his soul. A restlessness Joseph had wrestled with hour upon hour, not unlike Jacob, his ancestor of long ago. Now, when the day-without-end actually bid shalom, he knew himself no closer to an answer. Night's Song By : DeAnna Brooks The blackness overhead, peppered with brilliant beacons, demanded remembrance. Remembrance that once a dark veil spread emptiness across the face of all things. It’s purpose? To hide truth, to keep it away, to bathe itself and all with it in forgetfulness … that it might live to self. Night Seasons By : DeAnna Brooks Job knew that he knew that he knew God, and God alone, stood sovereign over his life. Job’s days were not in his own hands, they rested utterly in God’s. Curse God? Never! In his anguish, weary of this life? Absolutely! Thinking Clearly By : Ann Doupont As we think about what we're thinking about, and allow the Lord to amend our thinking, our lives will become more productive. Living Life On Purpose By : encourager If we are going to be victorious Christians, we must live life on purpose. We must get up off of the couch and get into the Word of God. We have an enemy and that very fact indicates that there is a battle to be fought. The good news is, when we are in Christ Jesus we have been given everything we need to win the battle. Jesus has already promised us the victory! The Shepherd King By : Josprel A good shepherd loves his sheep, but so does a wolf – only in another fashion. A wolf loves a meal of mutton; it considers such a meal delicious. So do lions, coyotes, bears, wild dogs, hyenas, and other predators. These all endanger the sheep and also the shepherd, without whose protection the flock has no chance of fending off the predators.

You are a reflective mirror of the hope of glory: Christ in You! Where is the Dreamer (The Kid) in You? By : veejoe7 Nothing will ever start happening until you start dreaming. Every accomplishment, every ministry, and every achievement started off first as an idea, as an image or picture, as a dream, as a vision and as a goal in your heart & mind. I challenge you today to dream get dreams for God and from God. God uses the child who has a dream! Where is the Dreamer in you? Stillness By : veejoe7 Be still and know that I am God...stillness is where you will find the peace of God! Are you taking time to find the still small quiet voice of God?

He is our new clothing, our armor of security, protection and love as we walk through life... Rivers of Living Water By : veejoe7 We must soak in it, bask in it and stay firmly rooted in the waters of God. The streams of water are the very words of God engrafted in your heart.

Baker With His command, they started out to do just as He told them. However, on the way, something happened. There arose a great tempest or storm, and the boat they were in was covered with waves. They were afraid and lost sight of what the master told them to do... Illumination By : Shari Weigerstorfer (Psalms 36:9) "...Once in awhile something occurs that sheds new "light" on a familiar truth. Maybe we read a devotional or meditation and suddenly perceive something we never saw before. Gems of wisdom reflect revelation when viewed from alternative perspectives..." Wells of Water By : veejoe7 There was a time in life where I found myself feeling emotionally dry, relationally dry and spiritually dry. I was desperately seeking for that drink to quench my thirst. And good ol’ natural water was not going to do it! I tried to find that “drink” in my career and I couldn’t. I tried to find it in vain relationships and I couldn’t. I even tried to find it in money and success and I COULDN’T. And at the very point where I felt I couldn’t keep going on anymore in this dry desert called life…I found it, I found it!!! I found that “DRINK!” Only it wasn’t just a drink, but an oasis! My Oasis: Jesus Christ! Do You Have an Attitude? By : Mark E. Baker God knows us totally and completely, nothing is hidden from Him. God looks at our heart and sees things that no one else sees. He knows what you are thinking and what motivates you, and these things do matter to Him. An Attitude of Gratitude By : Mark E. Baker If you are in Christ, you have a lot to be thankful for. You have escaped eternal punishment and have received eternal life. If you feel that you can not be thankful for anything else, this one thing should be a starting point to all of your praise to God. He is worthy to be praised... Sore Consequences, No Pun Intended By : Jan Ross There are times God reveals to us our sin. We ask the Lord to forgive us but there is no real change of attitude in our hearts, there is no sorrow, there is no lamenting, there is certainly no mourning. In our minds we are satisfied that we’ve repented. But Paul says something altogether different. Godly sorrow brings repentance; he said nothing about simply admitting our wrongdoings. Echoes of Eden By : DeAnna Brooks A piece of Eden resides in each of us, just as a piece of God’s image, fanned by His breath, is planted in the soil of our heart. Like a story unfinished, it beckons. It is my story. It is your story. And though it began without us, it contains all we are – all we were meant to be. Do You Know Him?

Ticket To Fly By : Donald Mehl People will respond quickly to a life threatening situation, but will ignore and reject warnings concerning their eternal life. Do you know where you will spend eternity? Many folks cannot answer that question with certainty. Sadly, they will gamble with their eternal life - only to lose it all forever. The Pain of Being Misunderstood By : Ann Doupont Many people feel as though no one understands them. The feelings of hopelessness can drive a person to do things they wouldn't ordinarily do. We can help others as we become for them what the Lord would have us be. Things I've Learned So Far While In Rehab By : Rick O These are things that God is revealing to me every day.
