Spiritual Wisdom and Understanding
Life is filled with difficulties and decisions that require God’s wisdom and strength. This prayer leads us to trust in the one who can give us all that we need to get us through each and every day. Continue reading
Unexpected Peace
We all have times when we are tempted to worry. Yet, worry is counterproductive. It consumes our attention; it saps our energy and creativity; it takes away our peace, our hope, our joy. Paul suggests an alternative to worry: prayer. Continue reading

Knowing Christ
What Paul found in his relationship with Christ made him want to press in deeper and press on farther. “I want to know Christ . . . I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.” Continue reading
Watchmen
Watchmen are the serious prayer warriors who give God no rest until he fulfills his promises and accomplishes the vision he has given.

Rather than focusing only on the present need, Paul’s prayers impact the here and now by focusing on the eternal. Continue reading
Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs
One good indicator of a life lived in the fullness of the Spirit is a joyful, singing heart. When the Holy Spirit is really in control, he fills you with joy and he fills your heart with singing. Life lived in the flesh doesn’t produce joyful songs, but life in the Spirit always does. Continue reading

I Have Not Forgotten You
How could a young mother forget her newborn baby? How could she fail to have compassion? God says that he will remember us and have compassion on us even more surely than a young mother who cares for her newborn child. Continue reading
Thanks For Your Support
That is a beautiful picture of a healthy church. It is a picture of a church operating as it was intended to. Notice the results: the body is built up, there is unity, there is maturity, there is growth. Continue reading
