 God's will, God&#39;s Word, and God's worship may sound a little spiritual to some people. But Paul is extremely practical when he turns his attention to “whatever you do.” That just about covers everything!

Be Wise About the Whatevers of God, Be Wise

Someone has said, “Too many Christians worship their work, work at their play, and play at their worship.” Let's talk about worship with particular reference to psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs.

Be Wise About the Worship of God, Be Wise

It is a well-established fact among believers that "man cannot live by bread alone," but that the Word "from the mouth of God" is vitally necessary (Mt. 4:4). However, it is equally well established that many believers have inadequate appetites for and diets of the Word of God.

When Peter was awakened by the angel in prison, he woke to a new life. Paul says believers have a similar experience—it's like “rising from the dead.” But this new life requires care. It takes a lot of wisdom.

Be Wise About the Will of God, Be Wise

Is your heart asking, “How long, O Lord”? Who or what are you waiting for? A job? A friend to be a friend? Someone to love you or for you to love back? Are you waiting for a break—or a baby? A child to say they're sorry, reconciliation, or an important prayer to be answered? Maybe you're waiting for the bullying or betrayal to stop—or lying, hating, injustice, corruption, or hurt. Or perhaps you are in a crisis of faith that needs to be resolved. In this message from Habakkuk, Jill Briscoe offers encouragement for the tough times in life.

I believe in Jesus, but for so long I've been spiritually dry. I made a mistake. A bad mistake! And since then, I've been living in a desert of regrets in a dry and barren land… thirsty, thirsty, thirsty. It's been a long time since I've experienced a sense of the supernatural. I feel isolated, marginalized, full of self-doubt—a failure! If this sounds like you, Jill Briscoe offers help in her message based on the life of Moses.

We often ask, “Where is God? I look for Him, but I do not see Him. I listen for Him, but I do not hear Him. It is dark—so very dark. Not pitch black perhaps, but my life is lived in shadows. How can I find God in the shadows?” In this message, Jill Briscoe looks at the life of Esther to uncover answers to those questions.

Pushed by his detractors, Paul reluctantly talks about his experiences. In so doing, he explains how his famous "thorn in the flesh" instead of being removed, served to deepen his relationship with God. An important lesson for all.

Sometimes when commitments prove challenging we back off from promises made. Paul shows us what to do from a specific situation in Corinth.

When We Are Becoming Careless, Knowing God Personally

The unique relationship which believers enjoy with God requires careful attention to appropriate lifestyle. This requires, among other things, avoiding compromising situations. But what this entails has long been a point of debate.
