Leadership Snares by Morris Ruddick
Last updated on: January 30, 2011 at 3:07 pm By editorconvergingzone
“I warn everyone among you not to estimate and think of himself more highly than he ought [not to have an exaggerated opinion of his own importance], but to rate his ability with sober judgment, each according to the degree of faith apportioned by God to him.” Romans 12:3 Amplified Narcissism is an excessive conceit, an extreme level of self-admiration and vain self-centeredness. Accompanied by a disdain for perspectives considered less than its own, it results from an intoxication with... Read more

Who is the Blessed Man? by Dudley Hall
Last updated on: January 30, 2011 at 3:00 pm By editorconvergingzone
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. Psalms 1:1-3 Who... Read more

Trust That You Belong to God by Robert Ricciardelli
Last updated on: January 30, 2011 at 1:23 am By Robert Ricciardelli
When we fully trust that we belong to God and find in Him all that we need for our minds, hearts, and souls, we find true freedom, and can bring freedom to others. Our revelation of God’s loving acceptance of us gives us victory over self-doubt and self-rejection that occasionally rise up to distract or defeat us. God reminds us of this through His Word, through each other, and through the many ways He speaks to us. Read more

Hearing From God For Yourself by John Paul Jackson
Last updated on: January 29, 2011 at 3:54 pm By editorconvergingzone
With the prophetic sometimes being tossed around in human ignorance and ego, this is a timely message from JP. God lives in you and more than anything wants YOU to hear his voice and not DEPEND on words from others. As you hear His voice, others may confirm what you are hearing. Many go to others as if they might go to a psychic looking for affirmation. They will often get the same diluted and misguided results they would get... Read more

Cuidado:¡Es Fácil Falsificar El Cristianismo! by Francis Frangipane
Last updated on: January 29, 2011 at 4:03 am By editorconvergingzone
Nuestra experiencia del cristianismo tiene que ir más allá de ser otra interpretación de la Biblia; tiene que expandirse hasta que nuestra fe en Jesús y nuestro amor por él se conviertan en un pararrayos de Su presencia. Examine Todas Las Cosas“Examínenlo todo; retengan lo bueno” (1 Tesalonicenses 5: 21). ¿Compraría usted un vehículo sin haberlo conducido? ¿O una casa sin haberla visto antes? Desde luego que no. Sin embargo, muchos de nosotros aceptamos varios “planes de salvación” que en... Read more

Beware: It is Easy to Fake Christianity by Francis Frangipane
Last updated on: January 29, 2011 at 4:00 am By editorconvergingzone
Our experience of Christianity must go beyond just being another interpretation of the Bible; it must expand until our faith in Jesus and our love for Him becomes a lightning rod for His presence. Prove All Things“But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good” (1 Thess. 5:21). Would you buy a car without driving it? Would you purchase a house sight unseen? Of course not! Yet, many of us accept various “plans of salvation” that do not... Read more

Change Begins in Us by Robert Ricciardelli
Last updated on: January 28, 2011 at 8:10 am By Robert Ricciardelli
We spend a lot of time noticing the changes that others must make to make our world better, but we often do not take the time to reflect the changes that are necessary within ourselves. The changes we would like to see, must begin in us. We become change agents for good by allowing God to change us first. Change is inevitable and constant, and the smallest God ordained changes can be the birthing place for miracles. Read more

Eternal Grace Now by Ron McGatlin
Last updated on: January 27, 2011 at 10:25 pm By editorconvergingzone

Currently we are experiencing the most exciting revealing of the reality of eternal grace empowerment to live as Christ in the eternal kingdom of God now in this present natural life experience. Our hearts are overwhelmed to be chosen of God to be a part of this season of the revealing of Christ Jesus alive and well in His Body arising... Read more

Our Task of Reconciliation by Robert Ricciardelli
Last updated on: January 26, 2011 at 3:49 pm By Robert Ricciardelli
Our task in this world as children of God is reconciliation. Wherever we go we see divisions among people; in families, communities, cities, and nations. All these divisions are tragic reflections of our separation from God. The truth that all people belong together as members of one family under God is hardly visible. Our task through Christ is to reveal this truth in the context and reality of everyday life. Read more

If the Past Was So Bad ~ Why Visit? by Sheri Geyer
Last updated on: January 26, 2011 at 1:33 pm By editorconvergingzone
Make a conscious decision to let go of the past. If it wasn’t such a great thing ~ why continue to visit or, worse, camp out there? If something triggers a past hurt and it feels “bad” recognize that there are wounds that may cause you to walk with an emotional limp for a season, but the effect of the experience can change if you choose to allow it. Truly when we can look back and laugh at our experiences,... Read more
