I asked God, “When was I closest to You?” Two words came back, “MALL WALK.” Now, those two words probably mean absolutely nothing to you, so allow me to elaborate.
Some time ago, when I was living in Montgomery, Alabama, I started going to the Mall every morning for the “soul” purpose of developing a routine walk with God. The first lap around the mall, I would ONLY concentrate on receiving the refreshing…

All I can say is “Wow!” Matthew 14.24-36
In order to realize great things in your life, you will likely have to risk greatly.
Even with Jesus.
I love the beach. And I am content to walk along the edge of the water, and let its occasional cool wave ripple across my feet. And since I sang a song in high school choir that went like this, “Here comes Je-sus, see him walking on the water…he’ll lift you up, and…

Water Walking in the Storm. Matthew 14.22-27
Where was Jesus when my husband lost his job, and his courage?
Where was Jesus when my son was beaten up, attacked from behind, and now has epilepsy?
Where was Jesus when my wife was diagnosed with cancer? Huh, where was Jesus then?
Regularly, people look up and think, ‘God, are you there? Do you see what is happening? How could this happen if you love…

Just who were the Twelve?
Before we go any further into Matthew, and just before we talk about another water walker besides Jesus, I thought it well to take a peek from 500 feet above . . . and consider the scope of Jesus’ work and those who worked most closely with him—you know, his main men.
There were 12 of them. Andrew, Bartholomew (also called Nathaniel), James (the elder), James and John, sons…

THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY UNBELIEF
by David Wilkerson
We think that when we fail to trust God in our daily situations, we only harm ourselves. We think we’re simply missing out on His blessings. But that isn’t the whole story. First of all, we hurt and anger our blessed Lord. He warns, “If you don’t trust Me, you’re going to develop a hardened heart.”
We read in Hebrews: “Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: when your…

How do you think Jesus would start a church in your city or town?
The first thing Christ would do is go on a weeping tour throughout your area. Scripture tells us, “When he was come near, he beheld [Jerusalem], and wept over it, saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! But now they are hid from thine eyes” (…

Keeping it simple. Matthew 14.13-21
Sometimes when we have a ‘situation’, we want to make sure we use the right words to pray and approach God…have you ever noticed that? In my years of ministry and teaching, sometimes I have endeavored to present a… |

Of Sin and Solitude. Matthew 14.1-13a
Two things. First, when we are in relationship with other people and choose to sin against them and God, we never sin alone. That is to say, >>>> our sin affects more than just us.
Second, the passage we are to consider also illustrates that when we are heartbroken by someone’s actions or when something grieves us deeply, >>>> we can choose our response.
It would…

Thoughts – what do you do with yours?
[I apologize for the gap in Morning Briefings. Behind the wheel of my car, I was rear-ended while at a stoplight on Sept. 21, and unfortunately, the ramifications of it have continued to get worse in my back and neck. It is my highest aim to send instruction, encouragement and inspiration from the Word of God daily; please know when there is an interruption, something has…

God's Grand Plan
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
It's amazing but true that God's grand plan for your life is far greater than you can imagine. In fact, this earth-bound existence has us so preoccupied with the demands of life that…

The slanderer tries to injure someone’s reputation or character by false & defamatory statements. The action or CRIME of making false spoken statements damaging to a person’s reputation.
People love to talk about other people, especially if it’s bad. Hollywood makes a huge dollar from gossip. People pay for dirt. Be honest, if the news was always positive, would you read it or listen to it? Most of us wouldn’t – including myself. God hates the news media because he hates liars…
