Only the risen Jesus can give you “clean hands and a pure heart.” Christ is known through conversation and heart-to-heart relationship with Him, not just by learning information about Him. Start talking to Jesus and listening to Him day and night. Let the King of glory come in and take over your heart and life.

The more I honestly talk to Jesus and admit my sinfulness to Him, the more I become aware of His love and forgiveness. Frequently saying “The Jesus Prayer” has helped me move beyond guilt and shame and become continually aware of His wonderful presence living in and through me.

The posture of traditional church is sitting and standing. The posture of the Gospel humble confession, repentance, and inner transformation — then testifying about Jesus, loving one another, and serving in His name.

Christianity needs weeping prophets who compassionately speak the truth in love! We have an overabundance of professionally trained religious leaders and self-righteous church members, but where are the weeping prophets? No religious institution can produce them. They are produced by humble, full, ongoing surrender and obedience to the living “Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

Please accept friend requests from the risen Jesus. However, thoroughly check with Scripture to make sure those requests are from Him. He’s been hacked by people who are promoting “another Jesus.” (2 Corinthians 11:14.)

When theft thoughts are allowed in a human mind, they chip away little by little at mental health and gradually steal inner peace. It’s wise to resist them, not to assist them. Drive out tempting and tormenting thoughts before they steal you blind. (2 Corinthians 10:4-5.)
