Trois minutes - the renewal God provides! Aug 28, 2021

When we are born again under God's sovereignty, He replaces our entire life with His life in us. He provides a complete renewal! This manifests itself in so many ways--He gives us a new mind, the mind of Christ, so that we may know Him more and better; He gives us a new heart, a heart of flesh,...

Trois minutes - the scorched earth policy of the Holy Spirit Aug 28, 2021

When the Holy Spirit invades us as a holy fire, He sometimes comes in gently. And sometimes... rather fiercely! When He roars His fire to refine us from impurities, it can be painful. But the result is always to His glory--a new heart, released from the chains of sin and temptation. When He...

Trois Minutes - on issues and solutions Aug 28, 2021

The woman who hoped to touch the hem of Jesus' garment believed that the tassels from the hem of His robe would be enough to heal her, where 12 years of doctors had failed. How can we emulate her faith where we too struggle with spiritual hemorrhaging? Whether it's stress, fear, shame, anger,...

When Jesus praises the woman who anointed His feet, He says that she will be remembered by all generations for what she did to Him that day. So... how do you think YOU will be remembered by all generations to come? And, more importantly, how do you think God will remember you?

Trois minutes with Stephanie - Jesus' flesh torn to pieces, Part 2 Aug 28, 2021

The flesh of Jesus was torn to pieces from top to bottom, just like the curtain of the Temple. We are back in Hebrews 10:20 where we looked, last week, at the various elements of the symbolism of the curtain. Now we are digging deeper as we see that the flesh of Christ, torn in pieces from top to...

Trois minutes with Stephanie - the curtain is Jesus' flesh, part 1 Aug 28, 2021

The curtain of the Temple was torn in two from top to bottom when Jesus surrendered His spirit to the Lord on the cross. The author of the letter to the Hebrews tells us in chapter 10, verse 20, that the curtain is the flesh of Jesus. Now, that is heavy-duty thinking. What does he mean???

Trois minutes with Stephanie--Spiritual Sugar Detox! Aug 28, 2021

My sugar detox taught me much. When I gave up on all forms of sugar many months ago, something beautiful happened: fruit started tasting phenomenal. You have no idea how intoxicating a strawberry can be, when you have not had fake sugars to cloud your taste buds! So, I asked myself. What fake...

Trois minutes with Stephanie - in Christ: dead or asleep? Aug 28, 2021

How will we, as believers, experience death? What does Paul mean when he teaches that Jesus' death killed death, so we can experience His resurrection life?

How do you hear His sweet whisper in your life?

We are approved of God! I love to ponder words. Their origins, their meaning, and how they get translated in various languages. So, today we'll ponder the jaw-dropping meaning of the word "approved" in the original Greek. Because, my dear, we are approved of God!

I publish these posts weekly....

The cloud Aug 28, 2021

 

In Acts 1, we read of Jesus ascending to the father in the cloud.

It's not just your usual water particle cloud. See, a cloud in the Old Testament was often a symbol of the presence of God. Mount Sinai was enshrouded in mist when Moses went up to meet with the Lord. A cloud pillar guided...
