“I’ll pray for you.” How often do we say those words but forget to actually pray? Have you ever been thanked for your prayers but knew in your heart you really forgot about praying for them? I know I have. We mean well, but life happens, and we forget.  Along with forgetting, we sometimes can…

When faced with life situations, is it ever wrong to pray for specific answers? What could possibly be wrong with that? Isn’t that what the bible teaches?  It is biblical to believe and trust God to specifically work, even in the impossible. This is one of my life passions. We should ask him to move…

I was recently challenged by a friend to begin a time of leading people to pray through the promises of God. What a great idea! There are countless promises of God recorded in his word. Every one brings victory. Knowing, and standing on these promises are essential in order to pray as we should. Faith…

Do your prayers please God? Prayers that please God are prayers that are based on transforming faith. Do you pray with transforming faith?  It’s faith that confidently knows “God exists and that he rewards those who diligently seek him.” (Hebrews 11:6)  These two truths must be the core foundation of every prayer we pray.  To…

I was recently asked how we should handle unanswered prayer. What a great question.  Let’s be honest, not every prayer we pray is answered, at least not in the way and or time we hoped it would be.  When my prayers are not answered I pull back and go wide.  By this I mean I…

Are you being used by God to make a difference in others’ lives?  Are you living out the life God has in mind for you? Many say they want to be used by the Lord. They may even pray to be used.  But they spend their lives waiting–to be called by God. The truth is,…

I will never fully understand why God does what he does. A large portion of God’s works will always remain a mystery to me. On February 11, 2021, my husband Danny passed away from Covid. I’ve shared through my writing how it made no sense to me. Countless friends and family shared that same sentiment.…

An essential part of prayer is being confident that God will hear and answer us as we pray. This sounds so simple and basic, but because many struggle to pray with this assurance their prayers are not answered.  Hebrews 11:6 tells us that faith believes;  God exists; that he is who the bible says he is.…

“Jesus looked at them and said, with man this is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”  I don’t think many of us really understand what that means. Or we may understand it but we do not take it to heart.  This verse from Mark 10:27 means there is nothing…

One of my favorite characteristics about God’s promises is that they’re total and complete. God speaks and acts in absolutes. There’s no partial working with our God. His promises are complete. He covers all the bases.  No one and nothing is ever left out. Think for a moment about some of the wonderful promises from the…
