Discernment is a gift desperately needed at this moment in Church history. Jesus warned us:
For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible. Matthew 24:24 (New International Version)
We’re living in the time He was prophesying about. It’s one sign of the end [...]
You’re a leader. You may be a pastor, mentor or parent, but you’re in a position of authority. Someone you’re responsible for has sinned and they come expecting the condemnation they are under to be compounded because they’ve confessed a hidden sin and know the myth of grace many in the church hold to.(The “myth [...]
The Hebrew word for honor is also translated at times “glory”. How you honor the unhonorable is to look for the glory the Father has deposited into their lives and pull it to the surface.
Let’s make it practical… someone bursts into your office and screams at you for the current problem they are facing, [...]
I need to give a warning, and I’m not here to single anyone out. But I have heard it from many people and I confess, I’ve participated at times. We can’t allow it any longer in the Body.
Let’s go to a Bible story that’s rarely taught in Sunday School.
Genesis 9:18-28 (New Living Translation)

I’ve been working to set up the store on RevTrev.com. Still a few things to do. I hope to have it up on the weekend… but really don’t know if I have the time to. Anyway, it’s always timely to talk about how we honor in conflict.

We can honor the Father because He’s first honored us. He has lifted us up and seated us in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:4-6). He has changed our relationship from being a servant to being a friend (John 15:15), He’s called us His co-workers(2 Corinthians 6:1), and He’s made us joint-heirs with Christ (Romans [...]
To understand what the Father has done, let’s take a quick look at Revelation 4…
…the twenty-four elders fall down and worship the one sitting on the throne (the one who lives forever and ever). And they lay their crowns before the throne and say,
“You are worthy, O Lord our God,
to receive glory and honor and [...]
We are to honor the honorable, but the Bible also tells us to honor those who should be honorable, but who may not always act honorably:
Father and Mother (Exodus 20:12)
Wives (1 Peter 3:7)
Widows (1 Timothy 5:3)
Kings (1 Peter 2:17)
These all make sense to our current definition of honor and the Bible promises if we honor [...]
How can you refrain from condemning others and know how to deal with those who condemn you?

But there’s a warning in Scripture about [...]
