#FaithBeyondFeelings
“Steadfastness is the refusal to let circumstances dictate your devotion. It is the decision to stay faithful when feelings fluctuate because you don't always feel like doing it. You don't always feel like praying. You don't always feel like fasting. You don't always feel like studying. You don't always feel like coming to church, bible study, prayer, Sundays. You don't always feel like it. You don't always feel like praying for your enemies. Praying for them to despitefully misuse you. You don't always feel like it, but you're faithful beyond feelings.”

#SinfulDesiresExpose
“But why are they? It's not necessarily because they're misinformed. They lack some knowledge or they don't really understand God's word. But as Peter points out, as God points out, there's there's something underneath of it all. They are following their own sinful desires. They are rejecting God's truth because, not because there's no evidence for it, because they don't want truth to govern their lives. You hear that? They don't want truth. They don't want the king of kings to govern their lives. So they push back. They reject. Why? Because they wanna follow their own sinful desires. And that's true for us. When we push back, when we say, I don't like what that says. And because I don't like what it says, I'm not gonna follow what it says. That in that moment, that's our own sinful desires.”
49s
“Of course, it's a job that we need power for. but don't miss what was in God's heart all along. The reason why we are witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the ends of the earth, the reason why you go into all the world, the reason why we're making disciples anywhere and everywhere is because he loves those people and he wants them back with him. He longs for them to be together just like he is with Jesus, just like he longs for you to be with him like he is with Jesus. This is his dream come true on the earth.”
41s
“So when the disciples doubted before it resurrected Jesus, it wasn't that they had a lack of faith. That's how we often define doubt. Right? It's not believing in God, but that's not what doubt means in the Bible. Doubt is used to describe the natural process we humans go through when we encounter the disorienting mysteries of faith. Hesitancy, doubt, being gobsmacked like Kevin at the Cubs victory, this is all a part of discipleship when we encounter the mysteries of God because they confound us.”
40s
#StrengthUnderControl
“I love the definition of this one, strength under control. Strength under control. Again, think about your interactions daily. Driving down the road, someone cuts you off. Driving down the road, someone either goes too slow or maybe you're the person that follows the rules and they're going too fast. Right? Strength under control. A child does something that you don't like. Right? Strength under control. To call them out, to discipline with soft hearts.”
16s
“"God is calling you today to be still, to surrender, to rest from fighting against the Lord because God, God, newsflash, he's already won. He's already won. On the cross, he has purchased the victory."”
62s
#PartnerWithGod
“laboring with the lord, I want you to imagine with me for just a few minutes a man trying to push a stall truck up a hill. He leans into with everything he has, legs shaking, back straining, sweat pouring. But the truck barely budged. People passed by and watched him struggle. He even talked about it, but no one stopped to help. Finally, another man walked over, put his hands on the back of the truck, and said, let me help you. The moment he joined in, the truck began to move. Same heel, same truck, same weight. The only difference was who was pushing with him. Saints, that's the difference between laboring for the Lord and laboring with the Lord.”
48s
#HiddenFaithMatters
“But the one like you that's been steady Yeah. Behind the scenes, your name is not up in lights. They're not lining up around the corner to come see you. Nobody's asking you for an autograph. Television station isn't calling. Can we interview you? You don't not even are they calling you for a podcast? It seems like nobody knows. But as long as god knows your labor, as long as God sees that you're serving him. Beloved, God never asked you to labor for him in your own strength. He invited you to labor with him in his strength.”
57s
#UnmovableInChrist
“Unmovable means not easily not easily swayed, not easily stopped. It's the picture of a believer who refuses to drift with the winds of culture or collapse under the weight of pressure. Laboring for the Lord can make you unstable because you're trying to carry the load alone. But laboring with the Lord makes you unmovable because he carries the weight with you. When you labor, Lord, you push. When you labor with the Lord, you partner with him. When you labor for the Lord, you strain. When you labor with the Lord, you stand. When you labor for the Lord, you get weary. When you labor with the Lord, he strengthens you. Saints, if the Lord called you to it, he'll carry you through it. Come on now. Right. Finally,”
52s
#TotalSurrender
“See, we don't have a problem surrendering some areas of our lives. But God doesn't want a part time saint. God wants all of us. He wants complete surrender. God wants us to know that he is God and that we trust him and him only. So God is today to accept us if we surrender, if we turn it over to him. Our work has meaning. You may feel the little that I do. It doesn't mean much, but let me tell you something. Everything you do for the Lord, it means something. It carries great power. It affects the lives of somebody else. You may think nobody is noticing, but let me tell you something, child of God. You're being watched. Yeah.”
