Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - How to Beat the Distraction Action - #4628
The Lord has set a course for your life. You have gifts to use for Him, people to influence for Him, work to get done for Him, days with which to glorify Him, and we're this runner striding towards the prize. All that matters is getting to the tape. That runner can look at the crowd, he could look at the competitors behind him, he could look down, but a champion always focuses on the goal.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Good News about a Cold Season - #4222
Most of us have lived long enough to see it happen - something good coming out of something that's difficult and unpleasant. If you're in a season in your life that's pretty cold right now, that may be an encouragement that would be good to remember. As you're feeling the chill of the moment, God is doing something that you're going to benefit from later on. Something that couldn't happen without this time of bitter cold.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Seeds You're Planting - #4277
You may have never worked in a garden in your life. But you're planting seeds, whether you realize it or not. In fact, some of what's happening in your life today - for better and for worse - is the harvest of some seeds you planted years ago. And, as the Bible makes crystal clear, "A man reaps what he sows." (Galatians 6:7)

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Too Tired To Drive - #4142
For some of us, that is the only way we will ever give up the wheel - to God, that is. If we're just too whipped, too beat up, too tired to drive. And we were never meant to control the direction of what's going on in our life. But we try, and we give God a major fight over the wheel; especially in areas of our life that really matter to us where we want control. Maybe that's why the pain is so great right now, the frustration so unrelenting, the load so overwhelming.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Supporting the Weak Spot - #4148
After forty days of not eating, I mean it's obvious that Jesus' weak spot was His need for food. And where does the devil aim his temptation? Well, of course, at Jesus' need for food! Notice Jesus' response ... a scripture verse that directly addresses the point where He was vulnerable.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Too Close to the Edge - #4853
Suicide is also the ultimate act of selfishness toward the people who love you. They'll never recover from the awful agony of this decision. Don't do this to them. And suicide is the ultimate waste of the life Jesus gave His life for. He didn't die on that cross just to have you throw away the life He gave everything for. One last thing -- suicide is the ultimate surrender to the devil who hates you.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Maestro at His Best - #4170
When did the master most powerfully demonstrate his skill? When he had the least to work with - one string. When does the Lord Jesus - our Master - most powerfully demonstrate how much He can do? When He has the least to work with. When our strings are broken and we have almost nothing left - that's when He plays His masterpieces.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Never Forget Who You're Fighting - #4172
Actually, that's an important secret of spiritual victory, too - never forgetting who your real enemy is. That's why the Bible warns us to be alert because "your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour." (1 Peter 5:8) We're told to "take your stand against the devil's schemes" because "our struggle is not against flesh and blood." (Ephesians 6:11-12) Now, it's easy to fall into thinking that we're fighting just people or problems or obstacles, but we need to keep our real enemy in front of us.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Feel Down at the Top - #4960
From adolescence through adulthood, we keep thinking what we're looking for is just over that next hill. But no matter how many hills you've climbed, the peace and meaning wasn't there, was it? You need to climb one more hill - the one with that cross on the top where Jesus is dying for your sin so you can finally experience the God-relationship you were made for.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Wind That Changes Everything - #4964
Some of us are such driven, type-A, "make-it-happen" people we miss the miracle of being carried by a God who makes it happen. We get all stressed, brittle, frustrated, exhausted, depleted because we don't allow the God-takeover that is where the power really is.
