Uncover the transformative journey of rediscovering God’s unwavering goodness. See how David inclined his heart back to God.
Frustrations and Happiness
Will we choose to believe God is still good toward us when hardships are all around? Thanksgiving in all things opens us up to God’s redemption.
Why Most Christians Are Not Happy
If joy is in the fruit of the Spirit, if the joy of the Lord is our strength, and if God has anointed us with the oil of gladness, then why is joy, happiness, and laughter not characteristics of the church?
You Are Better Than You Think
If God speaks to us the same aggrandizing words to us that we read in the Bible, why do we question if it is really Him? You are better than you think.
Prayer Quote – Anselm of Canterbury
God does not delay to hear our prayers because He has no mind to give;
but that, by enlarging our desires, He may give us the more largely.
Why We Exalt Him
We do not exalt God to create distance between us but actually to draw us closer. We are creating more room for God to say how wonderful we are.
Why Christians Should Pray for Healing
As we read the Bible verses about healing, we then have confidence that it is God’s will to heal the sick person. I pray for healing because God says to.
You’re Not An Embarrassment
In frustration, her words hurt me. They stayed with me and became how I viewed myself. I needed God to say, “you’re not an embarrassment.”
An Olive Tree Flourishing in the House of God
But the thing about Liv’s name is that not only is it what we’re praying for God to do in her life, it’s a constant reminder of what He’s done in mine. I too am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God, and I trust in God’s unfailing love forever. And I thank God because HE HAS DONE IT. It was nothing I could do, but He brought about this amazing healing and transformation in my heart and life.
But God Chose to Heal My Heart
Often we can be afraid of God and move away from Him because of lies we believe about Him. When we believe those lies, we won’t come to Him which could perpetuate more lies and keep us further from Him. But I’ve seen the opposite be just as true. As God has uprooted lies in my life and replaced it with truth, it draws me closer to Him. I continue to lean into Him more. I know His love for me even more.
God Did Not Heal Payton’s Heart
