Are you at ONE with God in your daily life? Do your thoughts and actions line up with God’s thoughts and plans for you? Are you confident in the plans God has for you? One of the ways we become ONE with God is through spiritual intimacy. Do you experience daily intimacy with God? Daily intimacy requires learning and practising how to be still, recognise, listen to the voice of God and spending regular time with Him. Is this something…
Isolating yourself from the world We can’t physically remove ourselves from the world so how do we maintain a spiritual goldy posture whilst surrounded by so many things that go against God’s Word? Being in the world but not of the world involves us isolating our mind from the things of this world and where the mind goes the body follows. According to the dictionary, the state of isolation is being in a place or situation that is separate from…
Prayer, it gets us all the time. The thing we all say we need to do more of, alongside spending more time with God. I have lost count of the number of times I’ve used the words of Tina Turner’s song, “What’s Love Got To Do With It”, and though it sounded great at the time, it was never used in the context of the original meaning of the song. Sometimes it’s like that with us and prayer. We pray but not always…
When it comes to spending time with God, most people identify it with church and prayer. For most, time with God equates to them seeking Him for some form of blessing or answer to prayer. But there is more to having a personal relationship with God than attending church, prayer meetings, conferences, workshops, bible study and the like. Just as our physical relationships require intimacy in order for them to thrive, so too our relationship with God. But how is…
On Saturday, March 12th 2011, I embarked on a journey that changed my life forever. Age 42, I had been a Christian for 29 years, suffered from depression for 35 years and was now on the verge of a mental breakdown. Being a Christian had not saved me, neither had praying and my version of trusting in God. Counselling had helped but it had not freed me and anti-depressants by the churches standards were public enemy number one. On March 12th…
Years ago I was given a book to read, that I must confess to never reading. The book was called Healing for Damaged Emotions, don’t ask me who the author was because I have no idea. After numerous lengthy conversations with a friend, she handed me the book and concluded the many hurts and painful stories I was sharing stemmed from my damaged emotions. I agreed but after looking at the thick fine printed manuscript that looked like far to much work…
An Extraordinary Life In An Ordinary World If there was ever a time our young people needed to draw CLOSER to God, that time is NOW. God seeks to get closer to the hearts of His children and His heart is to grab them now. The war is on between good and evil, their lives are at stake and as a parent or a responsible young adult, the question is not can you afford to find the money or time…
The GRG Experience truly is an experience that every child of God should and needs to experience, an practice that should go on to become a way of life. As children of God, we should be learning from Jesus examples, implementing God’s teachings and developing a stronger supernatural relationship with our heavenly Father while living in a natural world. Have you ever stopped and asked yourself why God sent His son Jesus to earth, to enter the way He did?…
Sitting on the beautiful terrace at Champneys Health Spa in Tring, I was amazed at the number of people taking time out to relax, meditate, read a good book and rest. People were laughing, sleeping or talking. What was evident from their body language and facial expressions was they had left all their cares behind and were set on making the most of the time they had carved out of their busy schedule for the purpose for which they were…
God’s Romantic Getaway Retreat 2016 A Heart for Intimacy Transformed in the Potter’s Hands As I begin to absorb God, His words and His presence, I find myself being introduced to new aspects of worship and wonder what life would be like if I continually dwelt in the secret place of the God most High. I also find myself wondering how God manages to reveal my thoughts and their origin and answer questions without me uttering one word. Could it…
