- So . . . I'm "feeding myself" in the morning from God's Word and thought I'd post what I'm chewin' on and make my "food" available for others who might want to nibble a bit. Hope it's of some benefit to you . . .
The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

But Little Power
Most commonly, they’re known as the church of “brotherly love.” This morning, I’m chewing on the fact that they were also the church of but little power. The church in Philadelphia, the sixth church of seven to receive a letter … Continue reading

Our Strength. God’s Power

Authority. That’s the word that caught my attention this morning — I’m guessing, prompted by the Spirit who is the One who illuminates God’s word. And, in kind of a circuitous route, found that authority and peace can be closely … Continue reading
Authority
Read the end of Ephesians 6 this morning. Took note afresh of the promise of being able to stand firm with the armor of God given that “we do not wrestle against flesh and blood” (Eph. 6:12a). And I can’t … Continue reading

It’s Not About the Horses
It’s been a morning of deliverance in my readings. And while the stories of deliverance are amazing, it is the Deliverer who “steals the show.” And David, the songwriter, caps it off nicely by reminding me it’s not about the … Continue reading
