Do you desire to have a heart for prayer?Psalms 27:8 says, “My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.”Our Father God longs for his children to spend time with him. Having a heart for prayer is simply having a heart for relationship. When we enjoy being with someone, we find ourselves lingering in their presence. One cup of coffee turns into two and before we know it, we lose track of time.That’s the way it can be when we linger with our Abba Father. He’s never in a hurry to leave and never grows impatient in waiting for us....

There’s something powerful about praying God’s Word over our lives and writing. By ‘praying God’s Word’ we’re talking about piggybacking off of the words and prayers found throughout the Scriptures.

As Christian writers and creatives, we relate to the Kingdom writers of old as we also endeavor to write words that outlive us ...

Do you desire to encounter Jesus? When we “encounter” something, we are coming face-to-face with it. In Luke 24, we see an interesting encounter between the resurrected Jesus and two of his followers as they were walking from Jerusalem to the town of Emmaus. Luke tells us that “Jesus himself suddenly came and began walking with them” (Luke 24:15). By the end of this encounter, these two travelers were left amazed as they realized they had been with Jesus himself, “Didn’t our hearts burn within us as he talked with us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?” (Luke 24:32...

The Hebrew word for manna literally means, “What is it?” God would provide this heavenly food for the Israelites day in and day out for forty years! The Psalmist puts it this way as he recalls this incredible period in Israel’s history, “He rained down manna for them to eat; he gave them bread from heaven. They ate the food of angels! God gave them all they could hold.” (Psalm 78:24-25) Over the course of these next twenty-one days, it’s my hope that God would supply spiritual manna from heaven for our souls.
