Jealousy or Cooties ?

Posted 11-24-2023 at 09:39 AM by Driver 47

Remember kids teasing about one having "Cooties" as an excuse for ignoring them?
Several years ago I was in what the media described as a "horrific accident." Let's just say it was life changing! Most injuries aside, The most life threatening was a compound fracture of my skull which caused internal bleeding in my brain. I wasn't expected to survive the night, but I did. One of the complications was amnesia. Not just a "forget about the accident" kind...

Spiritual Space

Posted 11-24-2023 at 08:29 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

What happens in meditation is that we create the emotional and spiritual space that allows Christ to construct an inner sanctuary in the heart.

WE ALWAYS HAVE RIGHT STANDING WITH GOD

Let us always do what we do for God to show our oneness with Him, and never to buy His love for us. Enter the rest of God, and refuse to live the fruitless, feckless, and frivolous life that we see constantly displayed in the world. All your sins are forgiven -- you are always in right...

November 24, 2023 – Exhortation

Posted 11-23-2023 at 11:41 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

The fire of the Lord revives you, frees you, and brings you closer to Him; where the fire of the enemy brings death, destruction, oppression, and bondage. "He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; He will purify… and refine them like gold and silver…" (Malachi 3:3)

God is using this time to construct, build, and draw you into who you were called to be; that which, without the fire, you wouldn't have discovered otherwise.

Unique expressions and streams...

Laying Hold Of Jesus

Posted 11-23-2023 at 10:57 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

As we trim our lamps and go outside the realm of familiarity and meet Him we encounter the Bridegroom -- our Magnificent Obsession.

He is eternal life! First Timothy 6:12 says, "Lay hold on eternal life." This means to take hold of, to grasp, to seize, to cling to!
His FULL glory pours into us. To lay hold of Jesus is to become a mature vessel of honor that He can use in the CALLING He has destined for each of us.

Jesus says to “Ask, seek, and knock,...

Revealing The Inaccessible

Posted 11-23-2023 at 10:32 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

In Jeremiah 33:3, we are told to call to Him so He can reveal things that were once hidden but now have become accessible. He wants to bring restoration and establish His purpose and plan in our Christ calling—not man’s plan but His plan. All we need to do is ask.

Psalm 33:10–12: "The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations. Blessed is...
