Jesus wants me!

Jesus wants me!

Jesus wants me more than He wants anything from me! ⁠ ⁠ This wasn’t a declaration of Truth I thought I needed until God gave it to me for my Christmas Eve sermon @elementchurch.life last year. ⁠ ⁠ Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual disciplines which help me replace the lies of the…

I Will Be Still!

I Will Be Still!

This is a Declaration of Truth I say over my life: I have time, I will be still! ⁠ ⁠ I have a really hard time being still. Because I’m wired for progress, action, accomplishment, and success, it is hard for me to just…be. ⁠ ⁠ Ambition can be a good thing, but it can also get in the way of some God…

I’m Yours God, For I Belong To You

I Won’t Question God

Here is a Declaration of Truth I say over my life. Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual disciplines which help me replace the lies of the enemy with the Truth of God’s Word. Every one of my declarations is rooted in Scripture: Truth = I won’t question God! Notice, I didn’t say I won…

How Much Do I Need God?
Discipleship

How Much Do I Need God?

I need God as much today as I do in the midst of or potential of tragedy! It’s so easy to be desperate for God on our bad days or in times of trouble but kind of forget about Him when things are going well. You can’t read the stories in Scripture and see this, especially in the Old Testament. Time a…

Declaration Of Truth: I will just be me!

Declaration Of Truth: I will just be me!

Declaration of Truth: I will be myself! I will just be me! Do you ever struggle with comparison? That’s kind of like asking, “Are you human?”, right? If you’re breathing you’ve probably struggled with comparison at some point. Especially in this social media age in which we live. Even as a pastor, I…

Declaration of Truth: I’m Worth It!
Discipleship

Declaration of Truth: I’m Worth It!

Truth = I’m worth it! So many times in life I start to believe the lie that “I’m not worth it.” I’m not worth the blessing I receive. I’m not worth the position I have. I’m not worth my wife, my kids, my job, whatever it is. The biggest one is that I’m not worth being saved. Do you ever struggle wit…

Declaration of Truth: I am standing in the name of God!

Truth: I’m standing in the name of God! I added a new Declaration of Truth to my list based on last week’s sermon at @elementchurch.life. Any time I can teach or inspire these declarations of truth in a sermon I always try to do it. Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual disciplines w…

I am who God says I am!
Discipleship

I am who God says I am!

I am who God says I am! That one Truth has been revolutionary in my life. We often allow ourselves to be defined by what we believe about ourselves, what other people say or have said about us, or the lies our enemy (satan) whispers to us. That’s such a dangerous place to be, but it is also such an…

Living In The Light
Discipleship

Living In The Light

Living in the light is a choice we have to make, not an advantage to our faith. I sometimes think in our faith; we can become complacent, thinking that just because we believe in Jesus, it will be easy to walk in the light. But walking in the light doesn’t just happen; it’s a choice. 1 John 1:7 says…
