In Isaiah 55:11 God says his word shall not return to him void, but it shall accomplish that which he pleases and it shall prosper in the thing where unto he sent it. Well, the only way his word can return to him is if someone speaks it. God has invested power in your words and his words are the greatest power. In the Book of Proverbs the Bible says a lot about your words. In Proverbs 12:6 it says something interesting it says- "The mouth of the upright will deliver them." And Proverbs 12:18…

Be victorious and surrender?  How does this work?  Don't we lose when we surrender?  Well, it all depends on the situation.  If we surrender in a game or in some sort of combat, we admit that we cannot win and thus accept defeat.  However, in terms of God and our Christian life, when we surrender, we are victorious!  Only when we are fully able to trust in God and offer our lives and everything in it can we truly be blessed and honor…

This is a passage that I read on a website called http://www.allaboutfollowingjesus.org.  It is filled with words of truth and encouraging information.  I decided to paste a clip and bold/underline some important words. 

I think the take home message is that living a Christian life is certainly not easy, but we will be victorious as long as we continue to ask and seek God's help.

Greetings,

We know life is futile. A man who considers that his life is of very wonderful importance is awfully close to a padded cell.  --  Clarence Darrow

The Law, grace, sin, justification, sanctification, baptism … why does it all matter?  All of these theological concepts of Paul’s letter to the Romans—do they really matter?  Should we even learn what these words mean?  I guess that depends.  Do you think that you are just a vapor—here today and gone tomorrow, with nothing of your…

So which is right—infant baptism or adult/believer baptism?  I wrote about my experience in “Baptized … have you been?”  Here’s another’s perspective that I thought might be a ‘counter’ to my experience:

“My own spiritual pilgrimage reflects a common pattern in the understanding of baptism.  I was baptized as an infant in the Lutheran church in which I was raised.  My later confirmation class presented the truth of the gospel clearly, but it did not really come home to me.  I was…

A familiar number showed on the screen of my cellphone; I smiled a greeting and heard--‘Hey, we never had Brian baptized – is it too late?  Can you do it?’  And then, ‘And do we need to get some god parents for this?’ 

Funny thing is, Brian, the son – well, he’s 16 years old.  My friend was combining two different kinds of baptism in his question—infant baptism and adult baptism or ‘believer’ baptism.  Our passage today provides a great platform to discuss both.

Before, Paul…

The last couple weeks in Women of Passion, we have done some Bible page turning—sharing meaningful truths and promises from the heart of God.  I am prompted to send out a couple of those right now—not sure exactly for whom they are meant, but confident of that:

         Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.  Do not be terrified;

         do not be discouraged,

         for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.  Joshua…

"Mommy", little Kayla asks her mother, "do you love me?" "Of course I do honey", replies the mother. And when she goes ahead and asks, "does Jesus love me too?" "He shure does honey, even more than I do. Actually, you are His favourite". "Okay mommy" and off she goes to play. Children are so innocent in everything and just take what you tell them. Kayla is now happy beacuse Jesus and her mommy both love her, what more could she ask for?

It strikes me, why is it so hard for us…
