Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Pretty Poison - #4789
First sin fascinates you, and then it assassinates you. And God, in His love, has come to you today to wave you away from a choice that will take you where you never wanted to and keep you longer than you ever wanted to stay, and cost you more than you ever wanted to pay. Don't walk away from that sin - run from it. Sin looks so good and it kills so dead.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Killer Tide - #4797
Sin always kills. The tsunami tide of sin's consequences can sweep away a marriage, the trust people had in you, your position, your reputation, your self-respect, your closeness to God. When you plunge into that attractive opportunity, you have no idea of the shame, the guilt, and the hurt that will follow.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Ear Before the Mouth - #4812
Listening is the key to understanding a person. If you don't hear them out, you cannot understand. You've got to hear more than their words. You've got to listen long enough to hear their heart. If you don't, you'll probably miss where they're really at when you talk and your response probably won't even really fit where they're coming from. Secondly, listening is a primary way to make the person you're with feel important. I wonder how people feel after they've been around you.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - How to End the War You're In - #4817
Conflicts often result from misunderstanding the other person's motives or actions. The only way to avoid that is to do what these ancient Jews did. Go directly to the person or persons involved and let them explain what they're thinking. Don't go on hearsay, second-hand information, rumors, or your suppositions.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Winning the Fight Before it Begins - #4829
It's not what personality we book for the meeting, or the promotion, or the politics of having the right connections, or excellent planning, or a great program. There's no power in any of those by themselves. The power is in prayer - in God's people praying down the power and blessing of God as they boldly go into the Throne Room of the one who rules the galaxies.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Hearing Your Child - #4112
If you're a mom or dad, you need to hear what the first deaf Miss America said about hearing - that you need to do whatever you have to do to be able to hear your children. Some of us parents whose physical hearing is just fine have often been deaf to what our children may be thinking, or feeling or needing.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Myth of "Plenty of Time" - #4129
If your life is like mine, it is full of things to do, places to go, goals to achieve. With all that I've got going, the thought of the dash just suddenly ending is hard to imagine. And yet we don't dare forget how short our dash really is, or we may miss the only things that will matter when our dash on earth is over.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Loving by Anticipating - #4164
Now, if anticipating your needs means something in a restaurant, imagine how much it means in a marriage! Actually, I saw some married friends in a local restaurant recently, friends who have been married a long time. Based on some things he had said, I made this observation, "These sound like the best years you've ever had together." He smiled broadly and said, "Yeah - because after 40 years, I'm learning not just to meet her needs, but to anticipate her needs."

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - When Satan's Buttons Stop Working - #4867
I picture Satan sitting there with this big control panel in front of him with your name on it. I'm sure he's got one with my name on it, too. And he knows exactly what buttons to push to get you to respond as he wants you to. After all, he's been pushing your buttons for years and watching you dance to his music. He knows exactly what button to push to get you discouraged, to get you angry, to get you worrying, to get you defeated, to get you down on yourself or back to the old you. But hasn't he played with you long enough?

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Last Frontier in You - #4183
God says that when it comes to the untamed areas of our personal lives, the tongue is the last frontier! He acknowledges that we stumble in many ways, but then He elevates controlling this one particular kind of sin to the position of Proof #1 that a person is really grown up spiritually, proof that the Lordship of Christ is conquering the deepest corners of a person's rebellious heart. That's when his faith has reached "what he says."
