Right or Righteous?

Today's podcast asks the question: Would I rather be RIGHT or RIGHTEOUS? Together, we will go to the mirror of the Word of GOD and explore the meaning of Righteous Judgment as opposed to passing Judgment, and HOW we as Believers are to judge and yet not judge???? It should be a fun moment as we gaze into the Word together!

The Gift of Choice

The power to CHOOSE and the gift of that Choice is one of the greatest gifts that the Father God has given to every human being. In His power and sovereignty, knowing how terribly wrong free choice COULD go, God gave it ANYWAY because HE is love and love gives. Such a value, He places on personal choice, that HE will NOT violate it, even when HE KNOWS what the consequences will be, not just for the one making the choice, but those who will suffer as a result. This truth can be a tough pill to swallow OR it can be one of the sweetest gifts of life when we begin to understand the POWER of CHOICE in the context of God's CHOICE of US. When He CHOOSES, it is a DETERMINATION. It is a COVENANT, and He is faithful to it, and HE offers us to come into THAT covenant WITH HIM. In today's glimpse into the mirror of God's Word, we will look at this choice AGAIN and HOW precious WE ARE to the ONE who has CHOSEN to SET HIS LOVE on us.

Antichrist Revealed!

For years, there have been countless questions and ideas surrounding the coming of the antichrist, the new order he will establish, the kingdom he will set up and ultimately, his own claim to being god. We have tried to prepare for the coming deception, but are also aware that the spirit of antichrist has been alive in every generation. In 1 John 2:18, we read, "Little Children, it is the last time, and as you have heard that antichrist will come, even now there are many antichrists; this is how we know we are in the last days." John encourages the early church to BE AWARE of those among you NOW, who claim to KNOW Christ but deny Him by the way they live, establishing their order, their own kingdom and themselves as their personal god. He tells them HOW they will know the true from the false and how THEY can live in HONOR to what is TRUTH. Today's Moment teaches us that to acknowledge Christ is not to just say we know Him, but to live in covenant with Him by Word and Deed.

Hey Jane! Where's My Glasses?

In Luke 4:18, Jesus was reading from the Scriptures, Isaiah's prophesy saying, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me to preach the good news to the poor, deliverance to the captive, recovery of sight to the blind, liberty for the broken: the acceptable year of the Lord." He said, "THIS day, the Scripture is fulfilled in your ears." All that Israel had been longing for, the promise of release and repossession of the land, as in the year of Jubilee, the coming of the Messiah to bring His Kingdom, stood before them, and they couldn't SEE. Their eyes dim to the reality of the promise veiled in an unlikely earthen vessel. How often we have been blind to the liberty that stands before us in Christ, all because the hearing of the truth hasn't mixed with simple faith inspired action. Today's Moment looks at the gift of the year of Jubilee to the nation of Israel and it's present dispensation to the world now for those who will SEE Him.

Seen in the Dust

"And the Lord God formed man out of the dust of the earth, and he breathed into man and man became a living soul." What was in the mind of God when He took a look at the dust of the earth? Surely, He must have seen MORE than just dirt, but a living soul, and NOT just any living soul, like all of the animals of creation, but one that He had the intention of making look like Him. It wasn't Adam's physical form that would look like God, it was what would be breathed into him, not air to give life, but intelligence and morality. A form wasn't just seen in the dust, another mammal to occupy the earth, it was one who would be MADE in the very image of God, one of God's own children. Although thousands of years removed from Adam, you and I are no different. The egg and the sperm that created our lives was not an act outside of intelligence, but a Divine interaction of the influence of God into man. We each received the breath of life and became a living soul. If the Creator was THAT intentional with us, HOW can we not see His intentional hand upon others? How can we not see their potential to live into the fulness of WHO they REALLY are and speak the seeds of life that only God can bring life to? Today's Moment explores these very thoughts.

A Refined Life

"The Lord knows my way, and when He has tried me, I will come forth as gold." These words of faith from a man called Job give testimony to a life of worship. Did he know he was worshipping as he questioned? As he lost loved ones? As he struggled with sickness? Did he know that EVEN then, there was a refining process taking place, not to kill him, but to glorify God? This week's Moment looks at how the days of Job, the instruments in the Temple, and OUR everyday lives tie together to form a picture of a life of worship...the REFINED LIFE.

Certain in Uncertainty

How can we have certainty in these UNCERTAIN and ever changing times? Maybe YOU can identify with the desire to hold on to SOMETHING so you can have a SURE thing and have found that your "sure thing" hasn't been so sure at all. If that's YOU, this moment is for you today as together we look to the mirror of the Word of GOD to discover where WE can anchor down for Certainty in Uncertain times.
