Throughout history, pride of self has resulted in a separation from God, a creation of hostility towards God and if unrepentant, pride of self will bring eternal destruction

The Church, the School, and the Home are the most powerful tools God uses to develop the human mind, body, and spirit. Developing not just a working relationship but a thriving relationship between the church, school, and home gives God the best opportunity to reach both young and old alike.

Daniel 7 take us from the local experiences of the battle between good and evil, seen in the narratives of Daniel 1 – 6, and opens our minds to the cosmic war that is being waged against God and His people. Just as the narratives remind us that no matter the outward appearance, Daniel 7 shows us that God is in control, and He will win!

What does the faith in God look like in times of trial? Daniel shows that we don’t hide or change our ever growing experience with God even when governments may be used to attack our faith.

I believe God created humanity with an innate desire to seek and to have freedom. Freedom to believe, freedom to live, freedom to choose, and freedom from anything that will hinder spiritual growth and keep humanity enslaved in sin. Christ did not die so that we would walk this journey called life yoked to chains called self-doubt, worthlessness, and sin. Christ died so that we could live this life with dignity, peace, love, strength, and freedom. Christ has empowered us to stand in freedom from all that would destroy our lives. At times, that begins in our own head and our own heart. The question is, will you allow Christ’s sacrifice to give you the freedom that your life needs, or will you continue living enslaved with believing you are unworthy of freedom?

For Belshazzar, king of Babylon, God’s Freedom meant dependence that seemed impossible to accept. In God’s plan for the Hebrew captives, Belshazzar, as well as for you and me, God’s freedom is not about independence but rather a change in dependence.

Our worth as God’s children is sometimes forgotten when we are caught up in the failures and mistakes of our lives. We label and identify ourselves based on our failures and allow them to be barriers between us and God. No matter where we are or who we think we are, God has other plans.

Communion service can feel like an archaic 2000-year-old practice without real meaning for today. Before we give in to the temptation, we will explore the meaning of the various components of the communion service.

Many of us have gotten cut by a knife, scissors, or paper. All of these methods of getting cut hurt and might even make the strongest amongst us cry. The healing of these wounds takes time, protection, and a little TLC. The same can be said of the wounds we have deeper within our souls. The reality is that the wounds of our hearts and minds require much more than antibiotics. These wounds need the healing touch of the great Creator God.

God’s sovereignty, his supreme power and authority, continue to experience Satan’s constant challenge. Nebuchadnezzar struggled with the greatest human temptation, self exaltation. Daniel 4 pressed God’s sovereignty and challenged Nebuchadnezzar’s self exaltation..
