Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Campaigning Together - #8083
Politicians realize that they have to come together to win. You got to believe that your cause is more important than your differences. Now Christians need to remember that.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Straight to the Throne - #4451
How many times have we sincerely promised we'd pray for someone and forgotten? And while someone's promise to pray for us may be an encouragement, it's nothing like actually hearing them pray for you, right then and there. Don't you think it's time we got over this feeling of awkwardness and timidity about praying with each other?

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Mission Glue - #4453
As Paul once pleaded with former warriors in the battle to come together, I believe Jesus is pleading with us to get our eyes off each other and on the people who are dying without Him all around us. It is no one other than Satan who distracts us from our rescue mission - so he can keep his prisoners. It's our mission that forces us to come together, to fight our common enemy, to fight for our common Savior. We're same blood, remember? The blood of the Son of God!

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The High Price of a Little Ice - #4438
Now, it doesn't take much ice on the wings to cause an airplane to start losing altitude. It doesn't take much ice in your soul to cause you to start losing altitude - to start going down spiritually.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Open Door on the Storm Cellar - #4341
Now that's how every church and Christian fellowship should be -- a storm cellar with the door wide open for all to enter! Sadly, too many churches turn out to be a place where you find more storms, but it's meant to be the safest place in town.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - When the Tapestry is Unraveling - #4356
God's been weaving you into one of His tapestries - your family, your church (that's the tapestries that He does), maybe the people you minister with, your network of Christian relationships. The threads in God's masterpiece are His children, who like threads are in any tapestry, are very different from one another. People who are mostly head, people who are mostly heart, soft people, rough people, outspoken people, soft-spoken people, compliant folks, controlling folks, race horses, plodders.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - When the Target's on Your Back - #4271
The decapitation strategy makes sense militarily. If you can take out a leader, you've probably neutralized those who look to that leader. It's a strategy the devil has been using for a long time. Jesus knew what a rock, what a leader Simon Peter would one day be for Him. But on the eve of Peter's denial of his Lord, Jesus told him, "Satan has asked to sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you..." (Luke 22:31-32) If you're serious about following Jesus, if you're in a position to influence others for Him, you can be sure Satan wants to sift you as wheat.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - When the Kids All Agree - #4146
Our word for today from the Word of God talks about it in Matthew 18:19 and 20. God gives us an important secret of spiritual power: praying together. Jesus says, "I tell you, if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in My name, there I am with them." I don't know what's different in heaven between one of us asking alone and us asking together, but somehow it does make a difference.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Fingers and Fists - #5633
Jesus knows that if His followers can work together instead of separately, it will be living proof to a broken world of the power and the authenticity of Jesus Christ. I guess we can assume the opposite is true as well. If we can't get our act together as the people of Jesus, the world has every reason to question the reality of what we believe.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Battles That Really Matter - #4000
Someone we loved was in trouble. It was obvious that we had to drop everything to help put him back together. It was a long, grueling day, much of it spent with a specialist - but with a lot of physical pain for our son and emotional pain for us - his healing began.
There are times in our lives when our priorities need a shakeup - and we need to focus the best we've got on helping a loved one in trouble. It happened to Abram in our word for today in the Word of God.
