Shaken Together

Uncategorized Jun 14, 2024
 

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

A few days ago was Pentecost ... A reminder we've been given the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

And yesterday we looked at Acts 4:31 which says, "And when the disciples had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness.

 

This verse reminded me of Luke 6:38 where Jesus said, "Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

The phrase shaken together comes from when merchants would pour grain into someone's garment. They would shake the garment with the grain to create more room to fill the garment with even more grain. 

When the disciples prayed, God shook the place so that there was more space he could fill in them with Holy...

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

Yesterday was Pentecost on the Jewish calendar ... A reminder we've been given the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

 

Acts 4:31 says, "And when the disciples had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness.

In the Bible there are several scriptures about God shaking things, and one of the themes is that he shakes things for the benefit of his people. 

Shaking things up provides a fresh start and a reset, which can allow a greater level of His power to flow. 

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that we can be filled with the Holy Spirit. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Good massage therapists will often hold down areas of the body that are tight, restricted or painful while they shake the area free. The shaking actually opens the body up so that pain and...

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

Today is Pentecost on the Jewish calendar ... A reminder we've been given the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

In Acts 1:8 Jesus said about Pentecost, "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that we've been given power, and we are asking God to help us receive the power of the Holy Spirit we've been given. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Keep remembering God is with you in your workouts. He is supplying the strength and power for you today. 

I am praying for you.

A Sound Mind

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

 

On the Jewish calendar tomorrow is Pentecost... A remind we've been given the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

1 Timothy 1:7 says, "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind."

This month we've been talking about resetting our frequency, and a big part of this is having a sound mind and thinking on the right things. 

Colossians 3:2 says, "Set your mind on the things above."

And Philippians 4:8 says, " Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

Today's communion is a time of gratitude for the Holy Spirit, and we are asking God to help us reset our frequency by setting our minds on the things above and thinking about about whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and...

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

This month our message is "Reset the Frequency."

Changing the frequency reminds me of changing the channel on a TV or radio. We can reset what we tune into. 

A big part of our frequency is what we think about...

Proverbs 23:7 says, " “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he."

Colossians 3:2 says, "Set your mind on the things above."

And Philippians 4:8 says, " Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

In today's communion we are asking God to help us reset our frequency by setting our minds on the things above and thinking about about whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and praiseworthy.

Pentecost ( June 12th)

Pentecost ( June 12th)
4:12
 

Listen to the Podcast

Hey everyone! 

Here is this week's Yearly Cycle update communion meditation.

Pentecost is coming up on June 12th. This year some of you may have already celebrated Pentecost at your church, and that is because this year the Christian and Jewish calendars are a few weeks different. 

Usually, Passover and Easter are very close on the calendar, but this year Passover was a few weeks after Easter and the timing of Pentecost is based on Passover/Easter. 

This time of the year is a reminder to be unified. Before the Day of Pentecost all of the believers were united and of one accord. 

This time is also a reminder that we've been given the gift of the Holy Spirit to guide us and empower us. 

I am praying for you. 

Daniel

The Voice of the Lord

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

 This month our message is "Reset the Frequency."

Changing the frequency reminds me of changing the channel on a TV or radio. We can reset what we tune into. 

 Part of tuning into God is learning to hear His voice, and Jesus said that his sheep know his voice.

Psalm 29 talks a lot about the Lord's voice. Here is a small passage on his voice from Psalm 29:3-4, " The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the Lord thunders over the mighty waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is majestic."

In today's communion we are asking God to help us tune into his voice. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Work on increasing your presence in your workouts. Focus on one rep at a time. Think of 10 reps as 1 rep ten times. 

I am praying for you.

P.S. Remember the Master is with you, he loves you, and nothing is impossible for him.

Draw Near to Listen

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

This month our message is "Reset the Frequency."

Changing the frequency reminds me of changing the channel on a TV or radio. We can reset what we tune into. 

Ecclesiastes 5:1 says, " Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know that they do wrong."

And Psalm 81:14 says, " "if my people would only listen to me and follow my ways, how quickly I would subdue their enemies and turn my hand against their foes."

In today's communion we are asking God to help us draw near to him to listen the way he desires so that he can quickly turn things around for us. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Take a few minutes to slow down and listen each day. This is good for our relationship with God and also for our health.

I am praying for you.

The Sword of the Spirit

Uncategorized Jun 05, 2024
 

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

Lately Ephesians 6:17-18 keeps coming to mind where it talks about the sword of the spirit.

It says, " Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests."

The word of God in this verse is the "rhema," word, which is the living spoken word. What are the promises God has spoken to you, the words he has illuminated or made alive to you. These form the sword of the Spirit that you can use to attack and defend with. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us use the sword of the Spirit the way he intends us to. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

The word for "spirit," in both the New and Old Testament means wind or breath. In your exercise let your breathing lead your movement, so that your movement is gliding on the flow of air. 

I am praying for you.

Agreement

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

This month our message is, "Reset the Frequency."

In music when two instruments are resonating on the same frequency it is said that the sound is amplified. 

And I think it's the same when we get in agreement with God, within ourselves, and with other people. 

Jesus said in Matthew 18:19, "Again truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven."

In today's communion we are asking God to help us understand the power of agreement and to help us get in agreement with him, to have agreement between our head and our heart, and to walk in a higher level of agreement in our relationships. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Agreement and alignment are very similar concepts. One of the keys to joint health during workouts is creating alignment in the body. The easiest way to do this is by keeping your joints stacked one on...
