The battle we face today is not new — it is the same spiritual war Scripture has warned us about from the beginning. But we do not face it alone. The Lord, the One True God, the Lord of lords and King of kings, is all‑powerful. His strength is our strength, and His victory is our hope. As long as we “Keep The Faith,” we stand in the power of the One who cannot be defeated. The War Has Begun Remember: The Lord — Lord of lords, King of kings, the One True God — is All‑Powerful. There is no one greater, no one stronger, no one who can stand against Him. Persist to the end. Keep The Faith. How fitting that the name of this blog was given by Him. Everything about this work belongs to the Lord. The days ahead may be difficult, but He will give us strength. 6/30/2016 — A Clarification God will accomplish His work. Our part in this fight is not the use of weapons. Jesus rebuked Peter for drawing his sword on the night He was betrayed. Force is not the ...

A Divine Handshake… With Dog Paws

There are moments when God’s humor slips quietly into our lives, catching us off guard and making us laugh right in the middle of our worries. This morning’s dream was one of those moments—a tender reminder that even in pain, the Father’s presence can be both comforting and delightfully unexpected. What began as a prayer about trust turned into a handshake from heaven, sealed not with divine thunder but with the soft touch of a little dog’s paws. I had a very funny dream last night—one of those half‑asleep, half‑awake moments. I was talking with Father God, something I’ve been doing a lot lately because of what’s going on with my back. As I’ve mentioned before, I have arthritis all down my spine. I also have spinal stenosis, where the spinal canal narrows and pinches the spinal cord around the L4–L5 area. From the MRI, it even looks like one of those vertebrae has deteriorated. On top of that, I deal with sciatica pain. I keep telling Father that I will trust Him with whatever ...

The faith that justified Abraham

In this Unity Series reflection, we look again at Abraham’s faith—what made it genuine, what God saw in him, and what this means for our own walk of trust today. The Faith That Justified Abraham Genesis 22 — Abraham Tested (NIV) “Some time later God tested Abraham… ‘Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac… Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering…’” ( Genesis 22:1–2 ) Abraham obeyed. He told his servants, “We will worship and then we will come back to you.” He told Isaac, “God himself will provide the lamb.” When Abraham raised the knife, the angel of the Lord stopped him: “Do not lay a hand on the boy… Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” ( Genesis 22:12 ) A ram was provided, and Abraham named the place: “The Lord Will Provide.” What Justified Abraham? Paul explains the heart of it: “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” ( Romans 4:3 ) Abraham’s faith...
