Christ calls you to be a person of one thing. David had a heart for one thing— the manifest presence of Christ. He was not simply a God-seeker, he was a one-thing-from-God seeker. David was a seeker of the Presence, and he expressed his seeking in three ways. To dwell in the house of prayer all his days. To gaze on the beauty of the Lord. To inquiry, or to seek, him. The same God who gave David a one-thing seeking heart, wants to give you a one-thing seeking heart today.  Read More

When Jesus breathed on his disciples we aren’t told what kind of breath it was. A small puff like blowing out a candle? A mouth-wide-open exhale like performing CPR? A lip-puckered, extended blow like inflating a balloon?  Read More

Your Father promises you that angels will serve you. He wants you to know it and to count on it. Look closely at how angels are described. Spirits—they are invisible. Ministering spirits—they were created to serve. For the sake of those who are to inherit salvation—while angels certainly serve Christ, they also serve those who follow Christ.  Read More

I can still hear Armin Gesswein saying, “Plead the Promises! Plead the Promises!” He also used to say, “The only prayer that reaches the throne is the one that starts there.” Praying the promises of scripture is powerful because they are the Word of God. They come from his heart and stir our hearts with faith to pray and believe.  Read More
