A Season of Harvest Day 13: The Really Good News
The Scriptures tell us that Abraham believed God and he was counted as right with God because of his faith. When people work, their wages are not a gift, but something they have earned. People are counted as right with God, not because of their work, but because of their faith in God who forgives…

A Season of Harvest Day 12: Hungry and Naked without a Home
Jesus was born in a manger, hungry and naked, without a home (Luke 2:16). The younger of two sons asked for his share of his father’s estate and the father’s wealth was divided. This prodigal son went away and squandered it with wild living. The only job he could get was in the fields feeding…

I am the true vine, and My Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch that doesn’t bear fruit, and He prunes what does bear fruit so that it will be even more fruitful. No branch can bear fruit by itself, it must remain on the vine. I am the vine and you are…

A Season of Harvest Day 7: The Good Foundation
Everyone who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them is like a man building a house who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock. When there was a flood, the river burst against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. But the one…

30 DAY FAST, SEPTEMBER 1 – SEPTEMBER 30 (Join any time, see how to prepare below.)
Early morning posts every day: 30 days of fasting does not mean you do not eat for 30 days! A fast can be many things. Normally it is a plan to deny yourself some kind of food or something that is habitual. You want the lack of it to be noticed regularly by your body and your mind. And you want to experience a sort of hunger for it. It can be a good thing or a bad thing. A fast, by design, will turn your thoughts toward God when the moment comes that you say No. These posts will help you prepare and focus on how He will spiritually provide what you need, in the moment and beyond.
Evening posts every day: Personal posts from me that share my own daily experience of fasting, encourage tasting the sweetness of our Lord before sleep, and prepare us for an ever deeper renewal in the morning.
