Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Never Without Your Weapon - #4621
Israeli soldiers are respected all over the world for their military ability. That day in Jerusalem, I saw one reason why. They know something every follower of Christ has to remember. We have to always be prepared for war, and it doesn't stop because you're relaxing. Always carry your weapon - the artillery of God's words loaded in your heart.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Slow Down for Construction - #4630
You could sit there and mutter and pound on the steering wheel, or you could realize why God is doing this. He knows you need quiet waters right now. You need green pastures. Your soul needs some restoring. You're tired, inside-outside. Don't fight it. This is His love in action. He knows you couldn't keep running at that pace. Maybe you were running over people, or past them, or neglecting the people closest to you. Maybe you've begun to think that your work is your worth, and He's been crowded to the edge of your life. Whatever kind of construction He wants to do is probably overdue, and God could never refocus you while you're running at full speed.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Hummingbird Wars - #4635
Something is very wrong at the feeding place of God. There's too much fighting and we're missing what the Father has prepared for us. It's time we ask our Lord for the humility, and the gentleness, and the love, and the self-sacrifice that He always showed. He was the Son of God.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Messages After the Hit - #4671
God's words recorded in your Bible are the gauge that will expose the lies that your confused emotions are trying to tell you. Don't believe the lies. Let God's voice, through His wonderful Word, override all those obnoxious messages.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Better Beyond the Bitter - #4674
God's wonderful promise is not that the bitter won't come, but that it won't last. It won't be the final outcome. It won't be the last chapter. No, for those who belong to Jesus Christ, "rejoicing comes in the morning." What did I have to do to enjoy the sweet taste of that candy? The same thing you'll have to do to get the rejoicing He has for you on the other side. You have to get through the bitter. But you can, if you know it isn't always going to taste like this.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Something Broken at Christmas - #4685
Sin killed Jesus. He absorbed our death penalty for our sin to remove the wall between us and the God whose love we need so much. And the broken things in your life are a painful reminder of your deep heart need for a love and a security that you can't lose. Only God can give you that.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The End of What You Can Do - #4686
You've been trying everything you know to make things happen, to start it, to fix it, to solve it, to change it and it's just not working. Oh, you may have prayed about it, but honestly, you've had your hands firmly on the steering wheel. You're going to drive this one, no matter what. Well, you've seen what you can do. Are you ready to see what God can do?

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Premature Funerals - #4689
Don't decide the game is lost because your team is losing at halftime. If you think it's over, you may actually contribute to their continued wandering by resorting to nagging that will only drive them farther away, by compromise and accepting what can never been acceptable before God. By slowly giving up on your prayer of faith for them, or by just withdrawing from them when your unconditional love may be their best hope.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Person Behind the Words - #4706
When you go through a day without time in God's Word, it's not the Bible you're leaving there - it's Jesus. The Bible doesn't care if you show up. Jesus does. That's why you need to make your time with Him and His Word, the highest priority of your personal schedule - the sun around which all the other planets of your day must revolve.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Spreading Your Germs - #4749
It's obvious that God is very unhappy, very angry, when we start spreading our emotional and spiritual germs around. After all, we know it's just courtesy to cover our mouth when we cough or sneeze, to stay away from people when we have a fever, to do everything we can to protect others from being infected with our germs. We need to think that way about the germs we spread with our words, with our attitude.
