If you are walking in God’s will, guess who’s controlling your wants and directing your steps? God is! He will use you for His glory.

We're all guilty of seeking God’s glory before His goodness. We want to see His might, like when Moses feared leading Israel to the promised land. We wrongly think a supernatural gun show will steel our faith in God.

Godly parenting means teaching the Bible and living it out. We instruct our children so they are ready when Christ moves in their hearts.

God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. It does us immense good to remember His heavenly response is worth waiting for.

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Prince of Peace all clearly apply to Jesus Christ. But how is the Son of God also called Eternal Father?

When Christ returns, will He find you and me faithful? Does gentleness mark us out as God's agents on earth? And will we be restrained by the Holy Spirit in our conduct?

God’s Spirit empowers us to kindness and our good deeds glorify God. Our words and actions must then exhibit Christ to this fallen world.

All who love Christ and inherit His peace are shielded from head to toe. And all who have the Holy Spirit display infinite patience to the lost.

If you want to be a vessel of honor to change the world, walk in the fruits of the Spirit, those nine virtues that help evidence salvation. Today we begin with love and joy.

When we meditate on Scripture, heaven’s army guards our hearts and minds. The enemy dare not enter when we have the mind of Christ at our disposal.

Who is great? Athletes? Actors? Honest politicians? Ask Jesus who was great and He would tell you John the Baptist. But even John had his doubts...

Daniel knew God and His peace. We gain the same peace when we believe God causes all things to work together for good to those who love him.

Sinners don’t realize there may come a time when God says: Time's up. You’ve been weighed and found wanting! Seek the Lord while he is near.

Here was a mere man boasting in what he thought he had done independent of God. His judgment had been delayed, but now he would be humbled.

There’s no easy way to break bad news. Be honest, but not insensitive. Care what the recipient is going through. Weep with those who weep.

On the plains of Babylon a decision had to be made. Praise man or glorify God. Worship the king's golden image or burn in the fiery furnace.

Luck is a fantasy. God rules the universe. He alone removes and raises rulers. Nebuchadnezzar would learn there are no self-made dictators.

Daniel gave credit to Whom all credit is due. Those with the spirit of excellence know the Source of wisdom and they love to give Him glory.

Daniel was in Babylon, but he was not a part of Babylon. He was a child of God who even used food to show his captors he was different.

Daniel and his friends refused to be brainwashed by Babylon. Their excellent spirits yearned for God and would not bow to pagan captors.
