The fire of God's presence guides us, refines us, and sets our hearts ablaze. He is with us, even when we don't feel like it. Jesus lights the fire in our hearts, and it's our responsibility to fan the flames of the people around us.

Why is it that some people seem to have a special relationship with God? These completely normal, everyday people have discovered real intimacy with Jesus in the secret place, with no one else around. The devil is in the business of busyness because the reward of getting away with Jesus is immeasurable.

Jesus longs for intimacy with you. He's crazy about you! God longs for the stuff that nobody else sees, just you and him. Truly living as the bride of Christ will transform every part of your life. Jesus is proposing to you today, and offering you real life and eternal pleasures.

So many "Jesus-followers" spend their lives stuck in a never-ending cycle of religious striving and checking boxes, when God is calling us all into deep, intimate relationship with Him. In Scripture, David stood out as someone who really, REALLY knew God. What made him "a man after God's own heart"?

Today we celebrate all that God has done over the last 10 years as we look ahead to our bright future!

No spiritual battle is won without our most powerful weapon: prayer. What a gift it is to be able to talk to God at any moment of the day! When we pray, miracles happen, we receive strength and power, and we get to know God's heart as we are transformed to be more and more like Him.

Sometimes the best offense is a good defense, especially in this war with the flesh, the world, and the devil. It's time to take advantage of the armor that Jesus has given us! This is life or death.

The enemy gains a huge advantage in this fight when they can trap us in habitual patterns of thought that go unnoticed. These strongholds come in all varieties, but they always end up keeping us from the freedom and fullness of life with Jesus. It's time for these chains to break.

We live in a populated universe. There are many more characters in this story besides you and God, but angels and demons are probably not what you've thought them to be... What are these spiritual beings like, and how do they operate in our day to day lives?
