The prayer of blessing found in Numbers 6 also applies to those of us who follow Jesus today. Spend some time contemplating God's love and grace, and experience His peace.

Jesus taught with authority because he is the final authority. Are we acknowledging his authority over us or are we attempting to live independently of him?

Is it possible that we who follow Jesus actually know more about God than we put into practice in our lives?

All of us face storms in this life. How we handle those storms reveals the structural integrity of our spiritual foundation. What are you standing on?

In Christianity, we talk quite a bit about prayer. We know this is an important part of what it means to follow Jesus. But did you know it’s especially important when it comes to the spiritual battles we fight every day? In today’s midweek devotion we will seek to understand the role of prayer in our battle against our enemy, and specifically what it means to pray “at all times.”

Jesus taught that not everyone who called out, "Lord, Lord" would be welcomed into the kingdom of heaven on the day of judgment. When we embrace this challenging truth, God reveals to us the state of our heart and helps us know how to respond.

If we are seeking to a win a battle, it makes sense that at some point we would need to advance and overtake our enemy. Standing still and receiving one attack after another doesn’t seem like a path to victory. So why is it that Paul references “standing” so much in reference to the spiritual battle we face each day?

It's not something that's talked about much, but it's prevalent in the Bible which means it is important for us. In this message, Pastor Dan addresses the dangers presented by false teachers and how we can avoid being under their influence.

The final piece of the armor of God is the sword of the Spirit, which Paul writes is the word of God. Understanding how the word is to be wielded is important. Swinging it aimlessly at the enemy does not work. Instead, we must allow the word to do its work in our own hearts and minds.

The Golden Rule: treat others the way you want them to treat you. Why is it so much harder for us to live by this than it is to follow our own selfish desires? Join us as we continue to walk through the most famous sermon in history ... the Sermon on the Mount.
