God’s people have the joy of standing in a valley of dry bones and absolutely refusing to believe that it is the final word.

Christmas is a premier example of God’s ability to bring a new beginning out of what appears to be the end of our hopes.

Sometimes the only way that we can see God work out of nothing is if we look around and see nothing for Him to to work with.

Jesus doesn’t need any reason to look for his lost sheep other than love.

Sometimes God uses our circumstances to teach us that it is okay for us to not get our way.

What will strengthen our trust isn’t so much focusing on the size of the love God has for us; but rather focusing on the size of the God who loves us.

Christians are commanded to pray when we need something; especially if what we need is a movement of God.

The land promised doesn’t make us God’s people … the Lord’s presence does.

The work of the Holy Spirit is to make the presence of Jesus real to us, and that is what revives us.

The Christian life isn’t lived on a playground; it is lived on a battleground.

Sometimes our hearts are divided between celebrating God’s love and seeking God’s love.

Faith that finishes is supported by pastoral ministry that is fulfilled.

Consciences that are not held by the Word of God naturally wreck faith.

Restoring the joy of our salvation means revisiting our own “sycamore tree” with regularity.

Faith doesn’t focus on what we are walking through but rather Who we are walking to.

God gives us reasons for gratitude even in the midst of a disaster.

We get to talk to God like a Father because we are coming in the name of His Son.
