An Invitation

God speaks. He speaks into our hearts and minds through people, nature, the church. He also speaks to us through His Word. His Word is His love letter to us, His way of helping us remember who we are and assure us of His promises. His Word is the road map to help us live the passionate adventurous lives He always meant for us.

These blog entries are teasers. Insights and revelations to encourage you to read the bible, the greatest piece of literature that was written especially for you, God's child.

No Honor Among the Wicked


Judges 7:22 When the three hundred trumpets sounded, the Lord caused the men throughout the camp to turn on each other with their swords. The army fled to Beth Shittah toward Zererah as far as the border of Abel Meholah near Tabbath.

Sometimes, we look at people who don't obey God, and we wonder why they're living the good life. Professional bullies garner influence at the workplace. The youth follow ungodly celebrities. Corrupt leaders reign countries for decades.


In the story of Gideon, God told him to blow his trumpet and as he did, his enemies turned on each other with swords. In the same way, God is telling us to acknowledge the reality that surrounds us, but at the same time, keep our eyes fixed on Him, declare His ways and follow Him. In due time, the wicked will turn on each other and fall. We, God's children, will always win the battle.

Today, trust the Lord and obey Him, even if it's against the world's flow. You will win the battle.
