Psalm 13:1 -- How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide your face from me?
Believers want to know God. God's wisdom is to let us 'taste' dryness that we might become desperate enough to seek for living water.
Many misinterpret the dryness and become so discouraged that they stop seeking God altogether and even stop attending church. But God…

Matthew 27:32 - "Now as they came out, the found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross."
Certainly, Simon the Cyrenian's life was impacted and transformed as he literally "took up" the Cross of Christ and was "pressed…

2 Corinthians 5:6-8 - We realize that being "at home"in the body means that to some extent we are "away" from the Lord, for we have to live by trusting Him without seeing Him. We are so sure of this that we would really rather be "away" from the body and be "at home" with the Lord.
Questions to Ask Myself
Am I more comfortable walking by faith than by what I see?
Am I…

1. They had a death structure attached to their lives. God passed by them and saw them struggling in their blood. (Ezekiel 16:6-14) For us, God is saying that He is presently overshadowing us with His presence and desires to set us free from generational blood lines that are affecting our…

John 8:39 - They answered and said to Him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you are Abraham's children, do the deeds of Abraham."
ABRAHAM WAS AN ALIEN AND STRANGER ON THE EARTH. THE GOAL OF HIS LIFE WAS TO HAVE A PLACE IN WHAT GOD WAS BUILDING, NOT MEN.
WE ARE NOT THE HEIRS OF FAITH BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT WE MUST LIVE BY FAITH, BUT WE BECOME THE HEIRS OF FAITH BY ACTUALLY HAVING FAITH, BY…

Mark 4:39 -- "Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, 'Peace, be still!' And the wind ceased and there was a great calm."
John 14:12 -- "He who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works that these he will do, because I go to My Father"
Jesus did not come to show us what God can do. He came to show us what one man can do who was wholly yielded to the…

As I seek You dear heavenly Father, You are equipping me to operate in the fullness of Your holy presence. The rivers will be loosed in me, toward me, for me, and through me. My intimacy and communion with You will reveal the seven fold operation of the Holy Spirit. You are uncapping the rivers of Your manifest presence: the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. You…

John 12:36 - While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light.
JESUS CAME AS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. HE THEN PASSED THE BATON TO US ANNOUNCING THAT WE ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. JESUS CAME AS THE MIRACLE WORKER. HE SAID THAT WE WOULD DO "GREATER WORKS" THAN HE DID (JOHN 14:12).
HE THEN SAYS "RIGHT NOW THE…

Ephesians 2:17-19 - And He came and preached peace to you who were far away, and peace to those who were near; for through Him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household.
In 2 Corinthians 13:5 we are exhorted to "test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine…

Likewise, many of us have become so consumed with our battles that we fail to notice Jesus is not with us on our journey. Jesus' parents returned to where they had las seen Him; so also must we. To renew us,…

Hebrews 11:1 - Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Worldy hope is just a kind of wish.
Whenever we see hope in the bible, it means there is an expectiation. According to Mark 11:24, when we pray, we should believe we receive.
We should expect -- not just desire -- that those things come to pass.…
