Among Beth Moore's
very best-selling
books to date is
"Believing God," a
powerful study of
Isaiah 43 and
 Hebrews
11 that centers on
one simple yet bold
question: do you
believe God or
merely believe in
Him? Moore explains
how God's plan is
for the believer's
life to really work
so all will know His
promises are
entirely true. When
we begin to take God
at His Word, the
result is a fresh,
contagious explosion
of faith.
And now the enduring
favorite is
available in a
convenient
day-by-day reading
format, reminding us
time and again that
God is bigger than
we can imagine and
faithful to be who
He says He is, do
what He says He can
do, and help us be
who He says we are.
Believe it!

Communicating with the Lord.
Because the Christian
life is a supernatural life, the only way to
live it is by means of supernatural power. No
one can live the Christian life in his or her
own power and natural strength because we are
dead in our trespasses and sins, Ephesians 2:1.
God must empower us to live with His power. He
brings us to life, and then He indwells us and
enables us to live His kind of life. “When we
obey His command, He gives us His presence
without limit. The filling of the Holy Spirit
is His enabling.” (Will Pounds)
So, what are some of
the ways we communicate with God?

"The
Church of Tomorrow" or "The Church of Today"
People often point to
the youth as the “church of tomorrow.” I have
even referred to them in the same manner. We
tend to lump all the teens into that group and
talk about the church of tomorrow is going to do
big things. We talk about how they are going to
rise up and dance and sing and shout the name of
Jesus Christ to all the nations. I think we need
to get rid of the “church of tomorrow” tag that
we apply to them. Instead, we need to look at
our youth and realize that they are the church
of today!
