As you know, God speaks to us in many different ways. Often He speaks to us through our circumstances, sometimes difficult ones. There are many tragic circumstances that people are wading through right now because of the pandemic and its repercussions. Two nights ago I heard one man’s unique story and in it I felt God was expressing an important spiritual lesson. Here in NSW, there is a mandarin farmer who has been working extremely hard on this year’s crop….
Dearly beloved saints. It has been a number of months since my last post and as with you, no doubt, many things have happened over the past four months or so. I have been busy with other projects and have not felt any prompting to contribute to my blog, until today. These current times in the pandemic and now the Delta strain of COVID-19, are confusing, challenging, alarming and filled with varying points of view and uncertainties. Even for the…
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness….” (Genesis). So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them… (Genesis). For He chose her in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love He predestined her to be adopted as His son, through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will.…He has made…
Where will you look in 2021? Who will you look to? How will you spend your time? Who will you spend it with? Who and what will change and alter you this year? Who and what will give you meaning and purpose? Where will you find your identity? Who and what will transform you? Who and what will consume you? Who and what will you love the most? In 2018 I wrote a post called When The Artist Is Omnipresent….
Welcome back to my updated site! Thank you for your patience in waiting for the new site to come up, I really appreciate it. It was off line for quite a few weeks and I’m still working on a few things but I’ve made it across to Bluehost and although it certainly hasn’t been a cut and dry process, we’re here. Safe and sound. There’re still a few more tweaks for me to work on over the coming weeks so…
Do you need and want a refreshing look into what it means and looks like, to serve God, without burden and exhaustion and guilt? Then read (and listen) on! Here is the link for our latest episode on The Ancient Pathways.com. Derek and I have just started a series there called The Servant and we are loving seeing the ever increasing view of our Lord, The Godhead and the Church in this aspect of who He is. It is becoming…
A Guest blog by Derek Batty 🙂 We all need to remember to take one day at a time ay? I recall someone saying that it is God’s mercy to give us one day at a time. Why? Otherwise the accumulation of our short comings, the difficulties and trials that we encounter over one life long continuous day without a night of rest would overwhelm us. In the beginning He created a morning and an evening and therefore one day…
Have you ever had a dream you just knew had come from the Lord? A dream that left your spirit full, feeling filled with love, in awe and adoration of Him? A couple of years ago I had one of these dreams, and it went like this… I was seated in an enormous outdoor stadium, like at the Superbowl or something I guess. There were thousands of people, every seat was filled, and my seat was a few rows from…
Praise Me! See who I Am! Be blown away by Me! Be breath-taken! I God, the God and Father of Jesus Christ, have blessed you. I have favoured you. I have showered you with Myself in heavenly realms! That’s right, in heavenly realms and with every spiritual blessing – that is everything spiritual that you need, every piece of goodness, everything that is of Me is…..in Christ! Everything that is of Me is in Christ My Son and has…
Many say that Christianity is a religion, but I disagree. Others say it is a way of life, a preference, a practice, a faith or an outlook.
