Let me encourage you in this final week of Advent to look for Him, even when the wind blows and the storms swirl. You may find Him as a babe lying in a manger or a carpenter’s son asleep in the boat. It may even initially seem to you, as it did to the disciples, that He does not care. But during whatever life holds this week, remember that Jesus comes in power as the Prince of Peace, always with us, restoring us to God through wholeness and comfort. May He be your peace this week, guarding your soul with peace, filling your spirit with the wholeness of shalom, and ruling as the Prince of Peace in your heart.

God Brings Peace

“The world has yet to see what God will do with and for and through and in and by the man who is fully and wholly consecrated to Him.”

All In

Here’s what impresses me about David. He wasn’t afraid of looking foolish. He wasn’t afraid of taking off his royal robes and dancing without hindrance and without inhibition before the Lord. 

Fear of Foolishness

Isaiah’s writings to the children of Israel came at a bleak period in their history. They are in captivity, they have lost everything they thought they would keep forever, and they were home sick for the land and the blessing God had promised them.

GOD WANTS TO DO A NEW THING IN YOUR LIFE

The point of church is to come into the presence of God, realize who you are in comparison to Him and to walk away ready to do His work.

The Point of Church

We are faced with many challenges and opportunities in our lives. As a Christian we are rowing upstream against a society that is basically anti-Christian. Many things about the future are both exciting and fearful. 

CHALLENGES OR OPPORTUNITIES

Prayer to God has the power and the ability to set things in motion in the spiritual realm. But more often than not the prayers to God have the power to change the one who is praying. 

The Transforming Power of Prayer

Our Lord’s arrival in Jerusalem just five days before His crucifixion is one of the stories that is reported by all the Gospel writers. Everybody remembers that day!  
It was a joyful and glorious day, a time of excitement, optimism, and renewed national pride for the Israelites. 

Hosanna!
