Like a horse has to be saddle broke to submit to the rider, you have to be broken before God, admitting that you are powerless to bring down your Jericho. Being good doesn’t make it happen, it’s God’s battle, but being submitted will. The fact is, we need an army to do it and God has one. A

E. Stanley Jones, famous missionary to India at the beginning of the last century, summed up the matter for us. Prayer is surrender – surrender to the will of God and cooperation with that will.

The Lord has more need of our weakness than of our strength: our strength is often His rival; our weakness, His servant, drawing on His resources, and showing forth His glory. Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity; man’s security is Satan’s opportunity. God’s way is not to take His children out

Here’s the bad news
It’s the fact that none of us can ever be worthy; it’s the truth that no one can ever earn or merit God’s grace or favor that is the bad news of the gospel. It has been a universal disease of humanity that we want to be worthy. When we have toiled through the heat of the day and

There is no Old Testament story more fascinating than that of the prophet Hosea, who at commands of the Lord, acted out a parallel of God’s love, yet severe warnings for his unfaithful people, the kingdom of Israel. Contrary to every healthy instinct and cautionary impulse, Hosea was

Some EARLY SETTLERS were traveling together across the western prairies of the United States. One day they were horrified to see a fire fanned by strong wind coming their way.

It’s sort of like the fable that evangelist D. L. Moody used to tell. It seems there were two eagles. One of the eagles won every race and the other eagle was jealous. One day, the jealous eagle overheard a hunter say, “I’d bring down that eagle if I had decent fletching on my arrows.” The eagle

It is like finding a friend playing Marco Polo. Explain invited to friend’s house, blindfolded in the pool. You would never find the person unless they responded. Only imagine you were in the pool looking but the other person was not even in the pool, or even on the planet. Without God’s help, we
