It is a very valuable blessing to see things that you say or do bear fruit in others’ lives. As you bear the fruit of the Spirit to anoint your work, people flourish at times because they were with Him in you. There are other times though, when, because you have been bearing fruit well, the Keeper of the King’s […]
Learning to make good decisions happens in a process that includes learning to discern the direction and instruction of the Spirit of God (including what He speaks through other believers), learning to reject the noise your flesh never stops making, learning to reject the deception that unclean spirits never stop attempting (including what they speak through other believers ), and […]
The references here are chapter and verse from the revelation of Jesus that John experienced: One day, Jesus will sit on a throne for judgment of humanity.

Your motives become your motivation. Everything isn’t this simple, but most of our motivations are either related to our dreams or our fears. If you are afraid of failure, your dreams become a puff of smoke. If your dreams drive you to accomplish, to build, to assault what is wrong, your fears have been silenced. Don’t let your fear of […]
Every good thing we do is a response to something Jesus has done. We worship because He revealed how wondersful He is. We love because He first loved us. We work because we see Him working.
