The Tightrope Of Obedience

Posted on August 4, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

“Woe to the rebellious children,” says the LORD, “Who take counsel, but not of Me, And who devise plans, but not of My Spirit, That they may add sin to sin” Isaiah 30:1 (NKJV)   Not that this may be anything new to you but “It’s a jungle out there!” We’ve got open rebellion against […]

Proverbs 24:10

Posted on August 3, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

Proverbs 24:10 “If you falter in a time of trouble, how small is your strength!”   Troubles come in many different shapes and sizes; some we laugh at others, we cry at. But, how we react to the daily tribulations that come our way speaks volumes about our character. Troubles can be a means of […]

The Fellowship of the Unashamed

Posted on August 2, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

Pastor Chris Hodges shared this on Thursday night at our Week #3 conference and a number of people asked for it. I first heard this at a 3CA Mid-Atlantic Sectional Conference when the then President of our Section, the late Bob Lutz, shared it with us. The background of this powerful statement of faith is […]

The Truth is What Matters

Posted on July 30, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

What matters is the truth and not what you think you’re firmly standing on. When the Israelite spies showed up in Jericho to survey the city, they ended up at the home of Rahab the harlot. It was this unlikely woman who protected these men from those who would kill them in the city. Why […]

Oh, So You’ve Heard This Before?

Posted on July 28, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

“Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.” 2 Timothy 4:2 (NKJV)   When I first was given the opportunity to stand in front of folks and actually share a Gospel message the thing I did immediately (after my moment of panic) was hit […]

Back to the Future

Posted on July 27, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ, our hope. 1st Timothy 1:1   I often wondered what would inspire the Apostle Paul to write letters to people and places. The introduction to Paul’s 1st letter to Timothy may reveal the motivation behind this one. […]

Jesus, Our Only Option (Part 2)

Posted on July 26, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

Dr. Mark Corts shared this quote from the pulpit at America’s Keswick: “You’ll never know that Jesus is all you need, until Jesus is all you have. When Jesus is all you have, you’ll know Jesus is all you need.” Paul summed it up in Colossian 3:4 – “Christ, who is our life.” Roy Lessin […]

To Whom will you Liken Me?

Posted on July 23, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

“Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding.” (Isaiah 40:28) We struggle with understanding God and the truth because we take hold of our perspective as if it’s […]

The Light of His Word

Posted on July 22, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” ~ ML King Jr. I wonder what it was like to be one of the 300 men chosen by God to face the vast invading army with Gideon. They started with 32,000 and were reduced […]

So He Ate With Gentiles

Posted on July 21, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

“Earlier, before certain persons had come from James, Peter regularly ate with non-Jews. But when that conservative group came from Jerusalem, he cautiously pulled back and put as much distance as he could manage between himself and his non-Jewish friends. That’s how fearful he was of the conservative Jewish clique that’s been pushing the old […]

Effective

Posted on July 20, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

“That the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you. in Christ Jesus.” Philemon 1:6   I would have to imagine that if you are reading this, most of you are “daily devotion” type people. That is, you spend time each day with some type […]

Jesus, Our Only Option (Part 1)

Posted on July 19, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

For all things are yours; whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come – all are yours. And you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s. 1 Corinthians 3:21-23 Is it just me, or does it seem that it is just getting crazier and […]

Waiting Can Be Hard

Posted on July 15, 2021 by Catey Stover in Freedom Fighters

Waiting can be hard, unless you know and are confident in what or whom you are waiting for. What are you waiting for? Better yet, whom do you trust to wait for? Paul tells us there is One who has perfect timing and knows exactly what you need. He writes, “When we were utterly helpless, […]
