There are times in our lives when we yearn to be aware of the truth. Times when we question what is real and what could be a designed deception or distraction. Times when we know deep in our souls we have been misled down “ the rabbit hole “. The real question is: do we truly believe we are completely aware of the truth or are we unknowingly deceived or lost? I believe the Lord divinely inspires us at critical…..
Is God in control?
Are we to believe that the created can question and redirect The Creator?
Where is God? Do we know when He has touched our lives? Do we recognize His saving grace?Has He interceded into our affairs, helped us at a critical moment, or inspired us with a perfect idea? These are questions I frequently had. They are questions I suspect you may have had also. I now believe the Lord is always around, often diverting, protecting, equipping and inspiring our lives. There are times we are oblivious to what He has already done…..
What is Sanctification? Is it something we can fully define or even control? Are we as individuals capable of even understanding what’s involved? The quick answer is NO! We do however know it is a gift from God! I believe we have no idea what the Lord see’s, knows, or has in store for our future. The truth is , we can not sanctify ourselves. Sanctification is a process. It is activated by a single event, a one time act…..
How can we deny the Divine intervention of the Lord? Are there not critical times in world history that lives and nations are saved by the hand of God? More specifically, can we look back at history, use everyday logic, and roughly calculate divine providence? I believe the answer is yes! Take for example a series of miracles that occurred during the American Revolution. It was barely a month and a half after the Declaration of Independence ( July 4th,…..
Have you ever found yourself at a specific place at the exact right time? Possibly, you just “ran into” a friend, a loved one, or a new acquaintance that turned into a miraculous connection. What about thoughts, worries or prayers that are seemingly answered by timely words, memories, or songs from others? Was it just chance, synchronicity, or extreme coincidence? I believe there are no coincidences. The Lord uses infinite methods to calm our worries, correct our paths, prosper our…..
Have you ever had a burst of creativity or a series of thoughts and wondered where it came from? Do we really believe we are so naturally incredible that almost perfect ideas are stored in our minds ready for immediate use? What about talents and creations from our own hands that flow out without any need for correction? I believe divine inspiration and Godly intervention can explain all. Take for example the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. When most 4…..
How do we define events that usually have disastrous outcomes and turn out positive beyond our belief? Would you consider them unbelievably lucky? A miracle beyond explanation? Or possibly, divine intervention by the grace of God? Even if you were convinced God’s hand was involved, how could you prove it? I believe logic, mathematical probability, and rough odds are a way to identify Divine Providence. Take for example flight 1549 and the miraculous outcome 10 years ago. After lifting off…..
Have you ever prayed to God for an answer or a direction in life? Were you possibly desperate for Godly wisdom? Maybe your inner most desire was to follow the Lord’s divine will. This course of thinking has replayed in my life countless times. Maybe it has for you also. I will be thinking about a subject or praying for guidance and like a miracle the answer will arrive. Sometimes it occurs right away and I’ll turn to the Bible…..
Have you ever just met someone and suddenly made an unlikely connection? Was the event like a thread that led to more? Perhaps it was necessary to meet a particular person that helped with a new career, an idea, or a future relationship that would change your course in life. Maybe it started out as casual conversation with a stranger or you just happened to ” bump” into someone you haven’t seen for a while. The real question is ;…..
