If I believe God’s promises what else do I need to do for them to be real in my life?
Many Greek and Hebrew words have no exact English translation. Couple that with 2000 years of Religionists twisting the gospel and all this can be incredibly complex. There is no exact, simple translation of “believe” or “faith” in English. Faith is, at the core,...
How do I know if it’s God’s will to answer my prayers?
Usually when someone refers to the “will” of God they really mean the “willingness” of God. In other words, “What is God willing to do for me?” Our confusion about the will of God comes from hundreds of years of religious, unbiblical teaching to which we have been...
I would make the decision to have a better life if I just knew how to make that happen!
If we knew how to make the promises of God come to pass we would have already done it! One of our greatest fears is the unknown. More than anything else, the intellectual mind seeks to preserve our ego. Ego is the false identity we have established through our own...
I just want to be in the will of God!
Being in the will of God is an important factor but, like nearly every other aspect of our faith, it is a concept that was twisted by the early Religionists that reshaped and perverted the New Covenant. Until the state church was formed by Rome the apostles’ doctrine,...
How do I know I’m in God’s perfect timing?
Among the many deceptions embedded into our concepts of faith by hundreds of years of religion is the idea that God can’t move in our life until the perfect moment. This mystical, occult concept paralyzes believers, negates faith and keeps the promises of God just out...
This all seems so complicated; how will I ever put all the pieces together?
Everything in life is made up of complex parts that we have broken down into very simple, repetitive steps and decisions. Even unhappiness and failure is based on information we learned, accepted, memorized and, at some point, chose as reality. It is harder to learn...
How am I supposed to choose a great life when nothing seems to ever work out for me?
Sadly, we have all been influenced to be carnally-minded. The word “carnal” just means “natural.” In other words, we have become Christians but not disciples. We attempt to make God fit into our natural thinking. In fact, we judge God based on our understanding of how...
Sometimes it sounds like faith is just a form of denial!
Abraham is the “Father of Faith.” He showed us what the process of fully persuading our heart to overcome all the obstacles really looks like. Abraham believed God as much as he knew how based on the degree of truth he had. But as we’ve already discussed, his journey...
Some days I really believe I’ll experience my miracle, but some days I just can’t seem to believe! What can I do?
Faith is a level of trust that only occurs when we are FULLY PERSUADED! Too often we guilt ourselves into saying we believe when we, in fact, are not fully-persuaded; we are merely in intellectual agreement. Then when faced with an overcoming obstacle we waver! There...
I try to be positive, but I just feel like I’m faking it!
There has been decades of controversy surrounding positive thinking. It is both clinically and biblically proven to be the healthiest mental approach to life. But there are many obvious pieces of the puzzle left out. The confusion begins with faulty definition of...
