Faith and Unbelief at War
Haven't you been in situations where you needed to count on God, but didn't think you could? This tension is the battle between faith and unbelief. And unless you understand this tension, you will make a wreck of your relationship with the Lord.mikemelin2016-05-12T12:12:2149 views00:03:11
Unbelief and Faith Don’t Mix
That flood of negative thoughts and emotions which comes against you when you’re trying to have faith in God is called unbelief. Unbelief lives in your flesh. Faith lives in your spirit. Please don't consider unbelief as just a lack of faith—beca...mikemelin2016-05-11T10:42:2292 views00:04:28
Polluting Faith with Unbelief
Because God is not intimidated by what we face, we don't have to be intimidated either. He will walk us through our circumstances in a demonstration of His love toward us. He has even made it possible for us to have joy and peace as we go through ...mikemelin2016-05-10T16:27:2282 views00:03:29
Making Assumptions
When faith in God appears to result in failure we tend to question God before we ever question ourselves.
How have you responded to your disappointments in faith? Have you lowered God's standards so low that it is as likely for your prayers ...mikemelin2016-05-09T13:42:24113 views00:03:12
Turning on the Lights
As long as we insist on associating faith in God with persuading God to do things for us, it is as if we are trying to make our way through life in the dark. When I stumble around in the dark, so to speak, all that comes out of my mouth is, “God! ...mikemelin2016-05-06T16:07:2152 views00:03:11
Faith Is Not the Tool of Choice to Persuade God
Can you even imagine the kind of a hell on earth you would be living in if God had given you everything you'd ever asked Him for? But in spite of that chilling thought, faith is generally considered as the tool of choice to persuade God to accept ...mikemelin2016-05-04T10:07:2065 views00:02:58
God Is Not Just a Problem Solver
If we are working our own works, our relationship with Jesus must necessarily be self‐serving, because we will constantly be running to Him when we crash and burn from trying to do things our way. But if we are working His works, we will be drawn ...mikemelin2016-05-03T15:35:2539 views00:03:52
A Relationship of Convenience?
If you are a born‐again believer, what was the pitch that sold you on Jesus? If your experience was like that of most people, I assume your motives for surrendering your life to Jesus were self‐serving. Join the crowd. Most of us were sold on Jesu...mikemelin2016-05-02T11:28:2483 views00:03:13
No Contingency Plan Necessary
To try to walk by faith, and yet plan for any contingencies in case God doesn't deliver is a plan to wreck your faith. Imperfect products made by imperfect people require contingency plans. But God (and everything about God) is perfect, and no con...mikemelin2016-04-28T12:49:10153 views00:03:03
We Cannot Be Separated from God
Whatever the rock, dirt, or other debris that has separated you from the life you were meant to live cannot separate you from God, because the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord is not material—it is spiritual. In other words, you canno...mikemelin2016-04-27T10:13:3583 views00:02:51
God Is Close, Very Close
We cannot escape God’s presence. We can be unaware of His presence, but we can't escape His presence. He hasn't gone anywhere. I haven't gone anywhere, and neither have you—even when we're completely oblivious to Him.
We just automatically as...mikemelin2016-04-26T12:42:1820 views00:03:05
Relationship Matters
Money, fame, power, and glory—I have chased after all of these things at one time or another. And while I’ve seen many people who appear to be successful in chasing after the same things, I haven’t done all that well myself. But I’m beginning to r...mikemelin2016-04-25T13:39:0266 views00:04:54
What Are We Chasing After?
Money, fame, power, and glory (with all their destructive associations) are just a few of the things that I see other people chasing after—and if the truth be known that I’ve chased after myself. Chasing after those four things seems a bit—well—wo...mikemelin2016-04-19T11:12:5482 views00:02:42
Wrong Motives
God does not want to share you (or me) with all the things of this world that we chase after. Yes, He promises to give us whatever we need in this life to prosper both us and the work He has for us. But when we begin to use HIm to chase after thes...mikemelin2016-04-18T09:43:18125 views00:02:34
God Is Jealous for Our Love
I regret my selfishness back when I first became a Christian. But I was extremely self‐centered back then—and, sadly, for many years following. I had no clue as to how much it would have pleased God to put a priority on our relationship. But I was...mikemelin2016-04-15T17:00:48122 views00:02:17
Divine Jealousy
We may not have much invested in our relationship with God, but He has everything invested in His relationship with us. And this covenant relationship God has made with us can be far more intimate than any kind of sexual relationship between human...mikemelin2016-04-14T07:52:10206 views00:02:18

A Prayer When a Situation Seems Impossible - Your Daily Prayer - April 24

My wife has recently painted these words on a wall in our house as a reminder to us both: “Mightier than the waves of the sea, is His love for us!” (Inspired by Psalm 93:4). Please remember this. Mightier than the tempest you are facing is His love for you!
