  • Allowing darkness

    When we have allowed darkness into our lives in any one of the first three areas—unconfessed sin, unresolved conflicts with other people, or with our own masks and pretenses—we can then easily become cut off from our sense of intimacy with God. That lack of intimacy in our most important relationship often leads to problems…

  • Seeking love in the wrong places

    So many are seeking love in all the wrong places. Even if you fill a room with Spirit-filled believers, there will still be those silent cries being made all over the room: Somebody, love me. Somebody, give me the comfort and affirmation I need. Jack FrostClick to Tweet

  • Sexual sin a garment of shame

    Sexual sin is a counterfeit affection that many of us have used as a substitute for the lack of intimacy with God and others, and it can leave us clothed with a garment of shame. Jack FrostClick to Tweet

  • Spouses a source of revelation

    Have you ever noticed how often God uses your spouse to reveal the unyielded areas of your heart? Conflict reveals unresolved issues of pride, independence, and self-love.

  • Luke 6 path to intimacy

    “Love your enemies,” and you take on the spirit of Christ! “Do good to those who hate you,” and you may make them your friend! “Bless those who curse you,” and you inherit a blessing! “Pray for those who mistreat you,” and you begin to see them through the loving eyes of the Father! Jack…

  • Vindication

    Vindication can be one of the hungriest, most destructive appetites we possess. Vindication is rooted in demanding our rights and justice for the wrongs done to us! But God says, “Vengeance is Mine.” It is His right, and it will cost us dearly to try helping Him out. Jack FrostClick to Tweet

  • Satan is a legalist

    As Christians it becomes very easy to value the letter of the law more than grace and mercy. It’s funny how, in God’s Word, He often turns what seems right and fair upside down. That is because satan, who is a legalist, demands what is right and fair. He demands payment for our sins and…
