Dependence Leads To Peace
by Curt Dodd on November 18th, 2024
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. – Philippians 4:7Scripture tells us that we are to be dependent on the God who gives peace. True peace is only found when we become God-dependent, not self-dependent. My mind can easily wander into dark places, and it doesn’t take much to trigger my anxiety, especially when I see situat...

Praying To Remind Yourself
by Curt Dodd on September 5th, 2024
You are my strength, I watch for you; you, God, are my fortress, (Psalm 59:9) Prayer is an ongoing conversation with God.

Seeking Godly Wisdom
by Curt Dodd on May 31st, 2023
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. (James 1:5) Do you know where you get wisdom? You get it from the Word of God. Wisdom is the Word of God applied practically to your life to show you how to live. Therefore, when you accept Christ, you are coming to Him who is completely wise. He has all the wisdom you need to take... Read More

Praying in God’s Will
by Curt Dodd on November 12th, 2022
This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us – whatever we ask – we know that we have what we asked of him. (1 John 5:14-15)There is a well-known passage of Scripture in the Book of Matthew that says, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. ...
