What Does the Finished Work of Christ Mean for You?

Your Heart Is at the Center of Biblical Giving
The grace of giving God’s way starts with the heart. If your heart is not right with God, nothing else will be. Many people make excuses for not giving. Some say they would give if they had more, but giving is not about what you possess: it is about what possesses you. You belong to God, and you have a responsibility to give.

In a recent interview between Tucker Carlson and Senator Ted Cruz, Senator Cruz stated that, “those who bless Israel will be blessed, and those who curse Israel will be cursed.” There’s only one problem.

Dunamis: Strength for the Soul That Only God Can Give
There is a strengthening for our soul that can only come from God. The Greek word for that strength in the Bible is “dunamis”, a dynamite strength from Him that empowers us in whatever capacity He has called us to serve. When we are tired or are being buffeted by the devil, we need to ask for that extra strength. We must talk to God and stay in the word every day, and not wait until we are already empty to turn to Him. When we are weak, He is strong.

The Effect of Godward Gratitude
Science confirms many of the things taught in the Bible, such as the benefits of exercising gratitude. Thinking daily about what you are deeply grateful to God for rewires your brain and improves your physical and mental wellbeing. When Jesus healed the ten lepers, the one that returned to thank Him and glorify God was not only healed but for his faith he was saved.

The Gift of God's Spirit
08/04/2025
The Gift of God's Spirit
Through the Bible God put the gift of His Spirit in human conduits to instruct, to guide, and equip them for service. We see this with the people in Nehemiah’s day, with the 70 elders of Israel, Bezaleel, and many others throughout the Old and New Testament. God’s still placing the same Spirit in us today. It’s not something weird or mystical, but a gift which helps us to grow in the knowledge of Him.

The God of Forgiveness
A close study of the Hebrew reveals God’s plural forgiveness’s, demonstrated by the fact that He never forsook the children of Israel despite their continuous rebellion. For us the promise is even greater with the covering of the blood of Christ. No matter how much or how often we fall short, we are forgiven.

The Lesson of the Manna
God demonstrates his ways with man through the lesson of the manna.

The Joy of the LORD Is Your Strength

The Joy of the LORD Is Your Strength
A whole new way of looking at Nehemiah 8:10, “The joy of the LORD is your strength.” This joy is not just happiness, but a joy that connotes unity with God, unity that comes from facing ourselves and recognizing our true nature before Him. As we turn from ourselves to face Him, we find a place of safety, refuge and defense in Him and He finds great joy!
