When God speaks to us, his intent is that we act on what he has said.

The fulfillment of God’s word may require me to respond in obedient faith in a situation that I simply don’t understand.

I resolve that 2021 be a God-intentioned, God-originated, God-created year for me, my family, and those I influence.

Each day of the New Year will bring new opportunities, challenges, and experiences.

It takes conscious, intentional effort to fight the gravitational pull of “Inside” and go “Outside” where Jesus is, where the action is.

Punishment is past oriented. Training is future oriented.

When I read this, I have to examine my faith and my attitude toward faith.

I’m thankful that there’s so much in the Bible about how to deal with delay, opposition, obstacles, and challenges.

Sin doesn’t have to accumulate anymore!

God’s new way of relating to his people is this: Through faith in Jesus Christ, each person, every individual, gets to know God firsthand.
