An Eternal Perspective
The path of a “successful” Christian walk is one of daily commitment to Christ and submission to the leading of His Spirit. Jesus said, “If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me” (Luke 9:23). Paul understood this commitment when he said, “I die every […]
Una Perspectiva Eterna
El caminar de un Cristiano “exitoso” es de compromiso diario a Cristo y de sumisión a la guianza de Su Espíritu. Jesús dijo: “Si alguien quiere ser mi discípulo, que se niegue a sí mismo, lleve su cruz cada día y me siga” (Lucas 9:23). Pablo entendió este compromiso cuando dijo: “cada día muero” (1 […]
Be Clean
The term leprosy, as used in the Bible, actually refers to a whole variety of skin conditions ranging from rashes, to open sores, to various infectious diseases, and includes true leprosy as we know it today. According to God’s Law given through Moses, a person with leprosy was ceremonially unclean and not allowed to take […]
Sé Limpio
El termino lepra, de la manera que se usa en la Biblia, realmente se refiere a una gran variedad de condiciones de la piel que van desde inflamaciones, hasta llagas abiertas, y varias enfermedades infecciosas; e incluye la verdadera lepra como la que conocemos ahora. De acuerdo a la ley de Dios dada a través […]
Immeasurably More
Prayer is a vitally important part of our Christian walk, but it is often greatly misunderstood. Prayer is how we talk with our Heavenly Father. It can never be used to manipulate God or cause Him to do anything outside His perfect will. God is not ours to command; He is not obligated to grant […]
Inmensurablemente Mas
La oración es de vital importancia en nuestro caminar Cristiano, pero con frecuencia es malentendido. La oración es como hablamos con nuestro Padre Celestial. Nunca puede ser usada para manipular a Dios u obligarlo a hacer cualquier cosa fuera de Su perfecta voluntad. ¡Dios no es nuestro genio mágico con la misión de cumplir nuestros […]
Working All Things For Good
In the message “Our Perfect Destiny” we saw that our perfect path is the one in which we obediently follow God one step after the other. There are oftentimes dramatic diversions in our journey, which I do not believe are necessarily caused by God. However, I still believe that God uses these diversions to direct […]
Serve Him in Obedience
In the last few messages we have considered our need to walk with God in continued obedience in order to honor Him and allow us to experience His very best. God’s plan is that we learn to live in His presence and become “conformed to the likeness of His Son” (Romans 8:29). This means we […]
Sirvámosle en Obediencia
En los últimos dos mensajes hemos considerado nuestra necesidad de caminar con Dios en continua obediencia a fin de darle honor a El y permitirnos experimentar lo mejor de El. El plan de Dios es que aprendamos a vivir en Su presencia y seamos “hechos conformes a la imagen de su Hijo” (Romanos 8:29). Esto […]
Our Perfect Destiny
In the message “Don’t Strike The Rock” we saw how Moses disobeyed God’s command with obtaining water from the rock. God called Moses’ disobedience a lack of trust and punished him quite harshly; “Because you did not trust Me enough to honor Me as holy in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring […]
Nuestro Perfecto Destino
En el mensaje “No Golpees La Roca” vimos como Moisés desobedeció la orden de Dios al obtener agua de la roca. Dios llamó a la desobediencia de Moisés una falta de confianza y lo castigó con alguna severidad; “Y Jehová dijo a Moisés y a Aarón: Por cuanto no creísteis en mí, para santificarme delante […]
Every Moment is a Gift
[Note: It’s been over three and a half years since we began the cancer walk with our young daughter. Our last tests in August went well and she continues to show no signs of cancer – praise God! The following message is one I wrote in April 2013 as we were in the middle of […]
