What Are You Going to Do With the Crown? Lessons on Authority and Worship from Revelation 4:10

  What Are You Going to Do with the Crown? (Revelation 4:10) "The twenty-four elders fall down before the One who sits on the throne and worship the One who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying…" – Revelation 4:10    In the book of Revelation, John receives a single unfolding revelation across twenty-two chapters while isolated on the Isle of Patmos. Removed from the noise of everyday life and centered in the presence of God, John is “in the Spirit” when heaven opens. God grants visions and speaks directly, revealing truths that can only be accessed through intentional withdrawal a sacred retreat to focus fully on the Divine.    One of the recurring symbols throughout Revelation is the crown . The crown represents authority, power, and the right to reign. Yet Revelation 4:10 shows something profound: those who are crowned also know when to bow, when to remove, and when to lay their crowns down. This passage tea...

It Was Supposed to Happen: Trusting Divine Order Through Revelation 3:7

  It Was Supposed to Happen: Trusting Divine Order "What He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can open." – Revelation 3:7    As we look at the life of Elijah, we see a series of events unfolding in precise divine order. The famine, the brook, and Zarephath were not random occurrences, they were intentional movements orchestrated by God. Each season prepared Elijah for the next manifestation of God’s presence and provision.  The famine was supposed to happen . It was part of divine order. Through the famine, Elijah was directed to the Brook Cherith, where God sustained him with water from the brook and provision delivered by ravens bread and cooked flesh, morning and evening. In this season, God revealed Himself to Elijah in ways he had never experienced before. The Brook Was Supposed to Dry Up    The brook drying up was not failure, it was transition. The raven stopping its delivery was not abandonment, it was instruc...

Your Power Is in Your Being: Living from the Eternal “I AM”

  Your Power Is in Your Being "I AM the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." – Revelation 1:8 (KSB)    People may become so focused on doing that they neglect the deeper truth of being . Yet true power does not arise from effort alone, it flows from alignment with the eternal presence within. One may align with divine beliefs and perceptions simply by being.  Beyond current ways of viewing circumstances lies a deeper state of awareness. In this space, long-held beliefs can be released. One can learn to breathe, to rest in stillness, and to know the Divine beyond thoughts, emotions, and words.    Being exists in the Divine, where we live, move, and have our being. One may move beyond reactions, behaviors, and emotional turbulence to simply be. Feelings may arise, yet they need not define us. One can allow them to pass and return to the truth of who one is. The Power of Being ...

Jesus Was About That Life: The Way, the Truth, and the Pattern for Abundant Living

  Jesus Was About That Life "Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life."  1 John 5:12    The purpose of Jesus was not merely to die on the cross for humanity’s sins. If death alone had been His mission, He could have died as a child during Herod’s attempt to destroy the infant Messiah. Instead, Jesus lived. He demonstrated how to live.    Jesus revealed God’s love not only through His death but through His life. He lived as the wayshower , modeling what it means to be fully human and fully divine. His life became the standard measure for authentic living showing what relationship with God, self, and others looks like, regardless of circumstances.    Jesus is more than Savior, Christ, Lord of lords, and King of kings, He is the wayshower. When He declared, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life,” He was revealing a pattern for living. He guides us through every phase of life, emp...

How to Communicate Love for God and Others This Christmas

  Communicate So You Can Have the Christmas You Desire and Deserve (2 John 1:12) "I have much to write to you, but I do not desire to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete." – 2 John 1:12 (KSB)    Many people say they love God, yet their understanding of what it truly means to love God is often incomplete. Loving God goes far beyond religious rituals, rules, or ceremonies; it is a living, growing relationship grounded in genuine love. That love begins with God’s love for us, and our response to that love shapes how we express our devotion. The following principles offer clarity and practical ways to understand and demonstrate authentic love for God.     First, loving God means keeping God’s commandments. These commandments are not meant to burden us; when guided by the Spirit, they become simple and life-giving. Jesus summarized them into three essential instructions: love ...
