Honoring God through the celebrating of the Feasts. We choose to celebrate Passover or the Feast of Unleavened Bread. As a Christian, I think it is important to understand why God created these Feast days and what the significance is for Christians. Leviticus 23 has a break down of each feast (appointed day). Our Passover celebration is based on the fact the Jesus is the Passover lamb (Luke 22:19-20) When we eat the matzo (unleavened bread) we understand the sacrifice which was made for us. Picture the matzo; the holes in the matzo represent the nail holes in His broken Read More

Choose: Five Life Lessons from 2020
Choose to be better and do more in 2021. As we all can agree 2020 was a different kind of year. Let’s face it, for many, it was a year of “BAD”. Bad news, bad health, bad finances, bad people, and other BAD circumstances. But, guess what? Even in the midst of bad, we can still have an awful lot of GOOD. I hope you endured and even prospered during 2020. Here are five life lessons we can take away from 2020: 1. Choose GOD (Ephesians 1:4; John 15:16; Deuteronomy 30:19). I ask myself daily, “Where would I be without Read More
Lead Me: Three Ways God Does Not Lead His People
Lead Me, God, and I will follow. God loves to lead and direct His people. All throughout scripture, God leads and directs. However, we have to discern the voice of God from our own voice or the voice of the enemy. As this year of 2020 continues and the US elections approach, we have to be diligent about following God’s leading. In order to follow God, we must know how He leads and also how He does not lead. God leads us through visions(Acts 2:17) the Word (2 Timothy 3:16) and the Holy Spirit (John 16:13). The Holy Spirit, the Read More
In All of these Things: Be Courageous
Be Courageous! It’s been crazy the last couple of weeks (or months/years). Things are changing rapidly. I remember this time last year when Oklahoma had record flooding and I thought to myself ‘I have never seen anything like this’. It started raining and never stopped until numerous towns were underwater. Some people are still trying to recover from that event. Fast forward a year and now we have a pandemic on our hands. Once again, I thought to myself ‘I have never seen anything like it’. This pandemic brought unemployment, sickness and disease, and death by the thousands. Fast forward Read More
Remember the Blood
Today, April 8, 2020, is the first day of Passover. In Exodus 12:13, God gave us a promise. He said, When I see the Blood, I will Passover you. That horrible plague of death will not harm you. Remember the Blood. During this season, when we are obeying government authorities and staying at home because of a deadly plague (COVID-19), we can still obey what God said about the Blood. This is what the Word tells us about the Blood: Leviticus 17:11 – “For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you Read More
In Him Realities: Taking Your World by Storm
In Him we live, we move and we have our being (Acts 17:28). I am starting a new series this week called In Him Realities. In Him Realities are those things which the Word of God tells us we have ‘In Him‘. Not just In HIm, but By Him, Through Him, In Whom, Through Christ and so many more. John 1:4 tells us In Him we have life. When you were born again you received the Spirit of God which now abides on the inside of you. The Spirit of God is the Power of God. Think about that. The Read More
