Surviving the last days (Chapter 11 Part 1)

Building the temple of my heart “Then I was given a reed like a measuring rod. And the angel stood, saying, “Rise and measure the temple of God, the altar, and those who worship there. But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot for forty-two months. And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed

Surviving the Last Days (chapter 10)

You are what you eat. As we walk through the book of revelation, my goal is to help inspire, uplift and prepare my readers for the coming times, but, know that I will stick to the words of the Bible and not share a new or personal opinion as fact. I started my blog as a place to share my personal studies and give encouragement to those who may get confused while reading and not now how to apply God's word to their daily lives. I don't claim to have all the answers but you, as

Surviving The Last Days (Chapter 3 Part 2)

Keeping the faith: sometimes it’s harder than it sounds. Everyone has days where they feel a little run down. We may struggle to get up in the morning and do the simple things. Yet somehow we manage to stumble through the daily habits like that first cup of coffee And whatever else we do to get ourselves going in the morning. Most of us have breakfast and feed our physical bodies every day, but do we remember to feed our spiritual bodies as well? Am I picking up my Bible dail

Surviving the Last Days (Chapter 3)

Keeping the Lights On Most of us prefer to walk into a well lit room. When the light is off, it becomes difficult to judge where things are. It could even be dangerous. You may end up falling over a chair you didn't see right in front of you. Imagine how dangerous it could be to have the lights of your faith go out and not see the spiritual obstacles in front of you.

Admitting When I Struggle. (Trusting God)

Are you struggling with something right now? I may not want to admit it but, I am. Sometimes it seems like the struggles never cease. In these times when we wish we could step out of this reality and into an alternate one, it’s important to remember that God knows what we are going through. He may not fix the situation but He does in fact care about us. So much so, that He prepared a place in heaven that will be so amazing, it’s beauty and wonder will far outweigh the struggl

Is My Pastor Trustworthy? How to Recognize FALSE Teachers.

If my pastor were to teach something unbiblical, how would I know? The book of 2 Peter teaches the 4 D’s of a false teacher. Destruction, Doom, Depravity, and Deception. First off, we should always remember that Revelation 22:18-19 tells us anyone who hears the words of the the Bible and adds to them, God will add to them the plagues that are written in it. And, anyone who takes away from it, He will take away their place in the book of life. The Bible also says that it is no

Fulfilling Your Ministry (What am I supposed to be doing?)

Have you ever wondered what your purpose is as a Christian? Are you wondering what you should be doing? The Bible tells over and over to go out into the world and teach others about God's love and the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross for our sins. This also requires us to be vigilant. Satan is cunning and has had many more years to practice his deception than we have had to practice our faith. It is so easy for us to fall for the lie that he has created to lure us away from

Rags and Riches (Help me to be Content)

“Now godliness with contentment is great gain.” Many of us desire from time to time or perhaps all the time, to have larger homes, more spending money, more free time, or just the ability to buy something we want without looking at the price tag and mentally running through the budget numbers before making our way to the checkout line. Though it's no harm to dream of an easier life or simply one with less financial stress, the desire to become rich can lead to trouble if it b

Growing a garden with Jesus. As I was putting together my fall vegetable garden plan of attack and researching the appropriate seedlings to start in my zone, I realized this zone thing was more than just a seasonal planting guide. Just like we have instructions for when to plant certain seeds, and when to harvest certain garden goodies, the same goes for sharing our faith and sewing spiritual seeds.

Speaking Faith When I've Lost My Voice

How too I praise Him and share His love when I'm feeling broken and running out of faith. Not every prayer or song of praise is spoken with ease and peace. Sometimes I struggle to get out the words or string together a melody that doesn’t align with how I’m feeling right now. I recommend reading Romans 12 along with this short devotion.

Lord, Is My Faith Strong Enough? How Do I Share My Faith When I'm Struggling?

Do you ever struggle with having enough faith? It can be tough to tell your friends about Jesus when you are going through a rough patch yourself and you don't feel like your faith is strong enough. Well, sometimes those rough patches are exactly what we need to go through in order to grow our faith to handle the next step on our spiritual path.

How do I stay on the narrow path when I keep getting attacked? (Making Decisions In Faith)

Any big decision in our lives can be intimidating. Am I making the right choice? Is this really what God wants me to do? What if I’m wrong? Maybe we don’t always hear that still small voice telling us exactly what to do next but we can have faith that God is always with us no matter what. I know I don’t always make the right discussions. Sometimes I imagine that God is sitting on His throne shaking His head at me and thinking, “oh, you silly human,” but wether I make mistakes

Holding Onto Faith In A Faithless World. (When Standing Up Sets You Apart.)

Oh, the things we walk away from when we take a stand for what we believe in... The world today is a dark place. So many of us get easily caught up in our day-to-day routine of chores, work, family, and entertainment, and its easy to miss what is happening on the other side of the door. So focused on what needs to be accomplished, many a Christian has no idea just how complacent they have become. When one day, the world confronts you, will you be able to stand for what you be

Is Keeping Quiet To Save Myself From Awkward Situations A Sin?

Speaking up to protect the weak is something many a non-confrontational person may do in a situation that calls for it, but are we as quick to speak up for what’s wrong when the price we might pay is great and those we speak against are considered normal or protected by others?
