My Utmost For His Highest

  • GOD’S TREASURE IS IN EARTHEN VESSELS March 5, 2010
    One of the most encouraging Scriptures in the Bible is 2 Corinthians 4:7: “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” Then Paul goes on to describe those earthen vessels—dying men, troubled on every side, perplexed, persecuted, cast down. And even though never forsaken or in despair, those me […]

The Solas

Sola Scriptura
The Bible is the sole written divine revelation and alone can bind the conscience of believers absolutely.

Sola Fide
Justification is by faith alone. The merit of Christ imputed to us by faith is the sole ground of our acceptance by God, by which our sins are remitted.

Solus Christus
Christ is the only mediator through whose work we are redeemed.

Sola Gratia
Our salvation rests solely on the work of God’s grace for us and in us.

Soli Deo Gloria
To God alone belongs the glory.

Psalm 36:5 Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

I have a very dear sister in the Lord.  We have never met, neither have we ever spoken, yet I know unequivocally, that the Lord has joined us together as sisters and I have been [...]

  3. My Goal Is God Himself

Unravelled

The cry of my heart has long been,  “Lord, I want more of You!”

In this cry, is the full understanding that more of Him = less of me.  This both costs everything and hurts more than can be told, as the Lord takes me through my ordinary life as He pleases.  At times, [...]

Don’t you know that in a race all the runners run but only one wins the prize?

God made me fast. And when I run, I feel His pleasure.

Part 1

Every now and again I get so excited and inspired by a life that was or is lived fully for the Lord. It is like a mini-explosion in me.  It is so encouraging and causes me to lift up my  heart [...]

Are we prepared to be squeezed by God?

A repost of an older post, with a few edits and additions  

Bless you as you read.

The process of regeneration and sanctification is an ongoing process in our lives, by God. It is often one that causes us much agony as we learn to let go of ourselves and our lives bit by [...]

Romans 8:28

I read this earlier on today and it made my very being leap as I read. It is just such wonderful, truthful writing and not from a theory only, because anyone who can write words such as these, knows the Truth of them because he has been led by the Lord to have lived them [...]

Author Joel Richardson, has written a commentary which I link to below and has a further look at the Interfaith unification between, Muslims, Jews and Christians and what  [...]

  1. ARE YOU A CHURCH WORSHIPPER?

On a cross on a hill, foreordained before time began.

Salvation is mine
not by mine own doing
but by a divine obedience
given from Another
in my stead
on a cross
on a hill
foreordained
before time began.

And through His obedience
I can now come
and approach The Throne
without fear
with supreme confidence
only because it is finished
on a cross
on a hill
foreordained
before time began.

Everything that I am
and all that I have
has been bestowed as a gift
given [...]

The Emergent Conversation Is A Tool Of Deception

Even those who claim outright that they are not “emergent,” but who reject the clear and direct teachings of the Gospel and sound doctrine from the Bible, have been corrupted by the inherit postmodern spiritual bankruptcy that has invaded seemingly every part of the visible Church.Dialogue has as its main intent the finding of “common [...]
