Testimony of God's Extraordinary Provision

I felt this testimony from Stairway Church in Whitehorse, Australia was a good follow-up to the previous post on the Blessed Child. A member of the church approached a man on the streets who just had been beat up and his wallet stolen. The rest of the story is God takes over. This is an encouraging story, but I would love to hear your thoughts.

A Blessed Child by Ted Dekker and Bill Bright

A Blessed Child by Dekker & Bright tells a story of 10 yr old boy who was raised in a monastery & taken to the US where his pure faith reveals God’s power.

The Spirit is Willing But the Body is Weak

Our spirit is strengthened in the presence of God, and we want our spirit strong because it is the part of us that is always desiring agreement with God.

Heaven is Where God Is

As Christians we have the potential to live Emmanuel lives – God with us. We allow others to experience what heaven is like, because heaven is where God is.

What Motivated Gethsemane?

Jesus at Gethsemane needed something before going through the suffering that He could only get from prayer. He reoriented rulership of His spirit over body.

A Man Plans His Course

So much of my Christian life has been taught that God is sovereign, and our goal is to figure out whatever His plans are and join Him. Jesus did nothing except what He saw the Father doing, therefore I should just sit hear until I see what the Father is doing. I am not going to dream about what my life could be, because God may have something completely different for me. I want whatever God wants, so I am just going to wait for His direction.
