Be Present for Every Moment of Your Life by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: August 20, 2012 at 2:55 pm By editorconvergingzone

Ambassadors for God do not focus on end time perspectives because they are engaged with the NOW times with God and His eternal Kingdom. They know they are not promised tomorrow, they have no fear of the future, and they view each day as an opportunity to love, to serve, and to presently manifest the substance of heaven on planet earth. They know there is no turning back, they know that their future is yet to unfold, and they know... Read more

The Mobile Life of a Traveling Soul by James Ryle

Last updated on: August 20, 2012 at 9:27 am By editorconvergingzone

“The highway of the upright turns aside from evil; whoever guards his way preserves his life.” (Proverbs 16:17, English Standard Version). For the past few days we have discovered and discussed what it means to experience God’s Presence, and how God has provided us with practical ways to do so. Here is an illustration I think will be helpful to you as you move forward. Recall the many times you have driven along the highway. You travel at varying speeds,... Read more

The Dangers of Revelation – The Classroom Without The Lab & Other Pitfalls by Tricia Exman

Last updated on: August 20, 2012 at 2:04 am By texman

Ahhh, revelation! Don’t we love it when the Holy Spirit illuminates the Word, unfolds mystery, and shares secrets with us? Being awakened to Truth is so incredibly exhilarating! However, there are dangers that we all need to be aware of and avoid. The reality is that it is very easy to become a revelation junkie. Let me explain what I mean by this. To me, this danger is the most important for us to understand. The first and primary reason... Read more

Believe in the Power of God by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: August 18, 2012 at 4:31 pm By editorconvergingzone

Sooner or later, man has always had to decide whether he worships his own power or the power of God, whether he relies on what he can do rather than what God can do through his life. True success comes only through our abiding in the glory of God and in the Spirit realm of wisdom and revelation. The eyes of our understanding must be enlightened so that we have clarity of purpose, hope in the inheritance we have received,... Read more

Surrendering to the Mind of God by Robert Ricciardelli.

Last updated on: August 16, 2012 at 11:37 am By editorconvergingzone

The western mindset continues to fail us. We have not been practically or systematically taught to see as God would have us to see. The tragic results include rationalism, secularism, and atheism on the Left and legalism, exclusivity, and cognitive rigidity on the Right. Neither is serving us well, and neither represents the grace, love, and mercy of God. Religion has been preoccupied with telling people what to know more than how to know, and telling people what to see... Read more

Wealth and Heirship and Envy by R.J. Rushdoony

Last updated on: August 14, 2012 at 5:19 pm By editorconvergingzone

By Rev. R.J. Rushdoony – bio One of the most powerful, corrosive, and destructive forces in all of history is very much at work today in all the world: envy. Envy is, in terms of Biblical faith, very clearly a sin, but, in the modern age, it comes disguised as a virtue. The motive force in much of the equalitarianism of our day is not a sense of brotherhood but an envy which seeks to level all things. Envy also masks... Read more

Desires, Dreams & White Walls by Tricia Exman

Last updated on: August 12, 2012 at 12:41 pm By texman

It’s fascinating that the heart is the container of those desires the Lord wants to give us when we delight ourselves in Him, and it is also the place from which flow the springs of life (Psalm 37:4; Proverbs 4:23). I have an incredible interest in studying the connections between our heart, our emotions and our brain – it’s something that has intrigued me for the past few years and the Lord has shown me so many ways that science...

Ten Antidotes to Christian Clichés by Christian Piatt

Last updated on: August 6, 2012 at 12:46 pm By editorconvergingzone

This is the final in a four-part series on the overused (and often insensitively employed) phrases that plague the Christian lexicon. Though I felt like I was offering some insight into what to do instead of offering these clichés, some asked for more specificity or clarity. So in that spirit, I thought I’d offer a final list of things to do rather than pop off with these phrases that may mean little or nothing to the recipient, or worse, may... Read more

Traditions Can Get in God’s Way by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: August 3, 2012 at 12:49 pm By editorconvergingzone

See to it that you do not become captive to human traditions and deceptive worldly principles rather than on Christ Himself. Do not depend on methods that may have worked in the past or expect miracles to be exclusive to historic places where they once appeared. God is the God of the here and the now. The past is over now, and the old places have been vacated and hold no power. The institutional traditions can never fully support you... Read more

Get in Union With Real Power and Life by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: August 2, 2012 at 11:55 am By editorconvergingzone

You cannot escape God within or God without. He is all and in all. The keys to establishing the Kingdom of God within you comes through your willingness to accept God into the depth of your soul, and to consciously align your will, your nature, and your being with Him. God outside of ourselves is constantly presenting His glory through all of creation, and His eternal love waits for those who might accept Him into their hearts, their souls, and... Read more
