Discover the power of a grateful heart.

I release a power greater than any force known to man when you praise me. You can’t imagine the power that gratitude can have in your life. As you give me thanks, I refine your soul and remove regret from your life. I will free you when you give me thanks. The more satisfied you are with me, the more satisfied you will be in all areas of your life.

Good morning!

The second way to renew your mind, as described in the devotional 7 Ways to Renew Your Mind, is to stop believing you can’t control your thoughts.

We are expected to choose our thoughts, not let our thoughts be chosen by something else.

Our minds are a battlefield and so we do get attacked in our minds. However, we have the Holy Spirit to connect with our spirit to build us stronger.

“The mind is a servant, either to your spirit or to your flesh. When...

Good morning!

Who wants to renew their mind? Woo Hoo! I always do!

As I read through a devotional on the YouVersion app, I loved some of the ways the author described this process. The original source is called: 7 Ways to Renew Your Mind

First, stop waiting for an outside miracle to change your mind.

Most of those miracles will never come unless you change the way you think and fill your mind with what God says (aka the Bible).

Stop making your mind a sidewalk fo...

Good morning!

If you missed last week, I wrote about Nehemiah. You may want to revisit that before reading this.

I noted something interesting that made me pause. In Nehemiah 6:10-13, a guy said to Nehemiah that they should go inside the Temple of God and bold the doors shut because Nehemiah’s enemies were coming to kill him that night.

But Nehemiah saw through this guy’s lie.

I would have guessed that hiding in the Temple of God was a safe and good choice, but tha...

I guess I forgot to copy it over to Patreon this week. It doesn't have extended content so if you saw it on YouTube, this is the same.

Thanks, guys

“It's a lot different to say 'thank you' to God instead of asking for stuff. That's the way I used to pray. Help me, God. Do this for me, God. I'm mad at you God, fix it.

I don't pray like that anymore. The only prayer I say now is Thank You.”

Good morning!

Determination…..it is a word that most of us like. Do we take action, though? Sometimes yes and sometimes no.

Nehemiah was busy doing God’s work and didn’t have time to entertain the taunts of the enemy.

“They were just trying to intimidate us, imagining that they could discourage us and stop the work. So I continued the work with even greater determination.” Nehemiah 6:9

Lord, help us to work with even greater determination when lies from the e...

“Shame loves secrecy. The most dangerous thing to do after a shaming experience is hide or bury our story. When we bury our story, the shame metastasizes.”

Good morning!

You may want to discover a wonderful video series from The Bible Project. You can go to their website, YouTube or follow the year long Bible plan on YouVersion that I have been doing this year. The rich understanding of the original language and context takes everything you read to a new level.

I am currently in Nehemiah and love this book because of the analogy I find for doing our work and yet holding our “weapon” in the other hand. If you don’t know the stor...
