A Vision of God—the Promise of the Spirit
He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. Gal 3:14 (NIV)
Yesterday I pondered this verse and thought, what is the promise of the Spirit? Then I thought, the promise is that we [...]
The Promise of Obedience
Enjoying a chat with Fawn the other day I asked what was currently ministering most. She said something from Ephesians about the word “sacrifice.” “Our sacrifices are not for the sake of those for whom we give things up but for Him whom we love.” That was the gist of her answer, and I liked [...]
More Meat and Butter Please!
I want to use this blog to write and keep writing about keeping a vision of God.
The other night I had a dream that, at first, disturbed me very much. I was stealing and stock piling meat and butter, and my next door neighbor intuitively knew “I” was doing it. She worked for the meat [...]
What is it?
God has hidden His answers in parables, stories, riddles and in the deep underground. He’s hidden them not from but for me. (His goodness overwhelms and undoes me). I prize deep answers because I had to assign them greater “value” before I began the dig.
Recently I’ve been digging for health answers, and after much exploration [...]
A Living Reality
I found the following in our Character of God book and thought it might bless you as it does me…again.
To journalize is to enter the prophetic with God. Hearing the voice of God is
the heritage of every disciple of Christ. Journalizing is a tool that connects the written word of God (the Bible) with the [...]
The Courage to Take the Gift…
Glen and I are enjoying some time on the tip of Florida at Hollywood and Miami beach. Lot’s of time to catch up on some reading and particularly on a devotional we should have finished by the end of 2009. It’s “Abundant living” by E. Stanley Jones. Here’s an excerpt that’s speaking profoundly right now. [...]
Knowing God by Heart
In the process of developing the ‘new’ God’s Money Heart Ways, I’m reveling in fresh insights regarding what I think of as God’s marvelous intentions for us. I’ve never spent time memorizing God’s word; I know what I know by heart. This morning I read from a new devotional given me by a new friend. [...]
The Will of God
During the prayer class we’ve been talking about praying according to God’s will. It’s interesting, every time I take one of our courses He magnifies the truth I’ve seen “through a glass dimly” even more. Here’s a small excerpt from one of my recent journals.
And how bold and free we then become in his presence, [...]
You Can See Me
Today while reading the assignment from my daily Bible planner the following passage stood out so I paused and waited for Him to inform me:
Jesus said, “Don’t bicker among yourselves over me. You’re not in charge here. The Father who sent me is in charge. He draws people to me—that’s the only way you’ll [...]
Heart Recovery
I was following my heart as I visionwrote or journalized this morning and look what came out! I hope it blesses you as it did me. (I’m in the Prayer Class with a group of wonderful ladies here in Abilene, KS.) The Scripture verses for today were as follows.
One only is the Lawgiver and Judge [...]
