Aim for Jesus
The reason so many of us get stuck, unable to move deeper into intimacy with God is because we don’t think it’s truly possible, at least for us. And so we don’t even try.

Read more..Trust. Can we trust in God? Is the Lord faithful? While we may wish to have been alive when Jesus walked the earth or Jeremiah spoke fearlessly God's hard truth, we are especially blessed to be alive today.
Read more..Satan has deputized people to peddle his poison. Friends dredge up your past. Preachers proclaim all guilt and no grace.
Read more..“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9)
Read more..How willing are you to surrender your timetable for God’s? Do you trust Him with your life?
Read more..Jesus is above everything that is—His name is above all, His life is above all, His work is above all, His power is above all,
Read more..Meditate on Psalm 131 to help move toward God’s peace that passes all understanding
Read more..“Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up.” Proverbs 12:25
Read more..What are non-believers missing out on? What do we have that they don't have?
Read more..Take an honest look at your life. Do you feel whole and complete, or is there the sense that something’s missing? If you’re aware of an emptiness, what are you using to try and fill that void? Is it relationships with family and friends?
Read more..Just as a small child imperfectly mimics a parent’s actions, disciples of Jesus copy Him. In these verses in Ephesians, lies a key way to imitate God: walk in love.
Read more..I just moved into the hood. Parenthood that is. I’ve never been this tired, nor have I ever felt this much love in my entire life. If you’ve got a little one (or many kids) yourself, you know exactly what I am talking about. The book of Esther is quite interesting to me because it does not mention God even once.
Read more..Thoughts on today's verse. Our lives are not lived alone. The Lord is with us personally.
Read more..Every time we choose faith in our intimidating circumstances, we are winning the battle. Day by day we can pick up the smooth stones and hurl them at the giants in front of us—toppling them to the ground.
Read more..God is pleased with us based on what Christ did for us; never because of what we do for God.
Read more..Do you hunger and thirst after righteousness, for the fullness and power of the Holy Spirit in your life? If so, you can claim that fullness and power right now by faith.
Read more..When we get quiet before God and sit at His feet, we are reminded of Jesus, a friend of sinners and a friend of the poor.
Read more..God doesn’t just want a part of us ? He wants all of us! Half-hearted service will not meet our spiritual needs.
Read more..In order to hold on to God through any trial or temptation, commit to trust and follow Him all of your days. Lay claim to His promises: The unchanging Lord and Savior (Hebrews 13:8) is committed to caring for you in all circumstances (1 Peter 5:7) and will never leave or forsake you (Hebrews 13:5)
Read more..Prayer: Righteous Father, please help me guard my heart and be wise enough not to place things into it that would rob it of its devotion to you.
Read more..The problem is not my mouth but my heart. Proverbs 4:23 says "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life."
Read more..Praise is a form of sacrifice. Ninth, praise makes for a more joyful life. Tenth, praise enhances human relationships. Eleventh, praise is a supernatural expression of faith.
Read more..Do you feel the passionate heart connection that marks worship? Each day your Abba Father in Heaven awaits that type of connection with you.
Read more..Our frame of reference comes from a variety of circumstances and situations: upbringing, environment, health/wellness, family unit, economic status, culture, safety, tragedy, disasters and the list goes on.
