Revelations & Ramblings: November 2011
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 8, 2011. But I can remember the scene where people were trying to pull the sword out of the stone and no one could do it, and then along came some scrawny kid named Arthur and just pulled it out with ease. Then to his surprise came upon him great responsibility. This visual has stuck with me and reminds me of a very important Biblical lesson with 3 points. (that should make some of you happy that I have 3 points.). But let's dive right in:. 1 The Word of God is our SWORD! God has given ...

Revelations & Ramblings: October 2009
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 20, 2009. 2 Chronicles 7:11-14 God's Place. Have any of you ever received an email forward? What about the ones that have something to do with religion, or the Bible? Like if you pass this along to 24 people and pray then you will see the face of Jesus in your closet door when you go to sleep tonight. That last one is a little out there, but I have seen similar forwards in my past. 2 Chronicles 7:14 in God's word he states, "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves a...

Revelations & Ramblings: May 2010
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 17, 2010. Who do we serve? You shall have no other gods before Me." - Exodus 20:3 ( NASB. From the time God gave this to Moses, it hasn't changed. Of god, lowercase G, is :. An image of a deity; an idol. Any deified person or object. More so than not, we do this in our lives, but we've justified it to the point where we don't see that we are doing it. For Christians we do it with the things of God, or things that are involved in the Christian walk. As Christians we live FOR HIS SAKE! Anytime ...

Revelations & Ramblings: You've Got a Friend in Me
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2012/01/youve-got-friend-in-me.html
Tuesday, January 24, 2012. You've Got a Friend in Me. Anyone from 7th - 12th grade and a few years either side of that recognizes the song lyric "You've Got a Friend in Me" from any of the Toy Story movies. In themselves they are pretty good entertainment, and they leave us with that statement of friendship that either we can relate to or we can struggle with. There might be a family that you can connect with better than you own, great! I'm not telling you to abandon your family, but I am saying that if ...

Revelations & Ramblings: What are your Children Worth?
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2014/01/what-are-your-children-worth.html
Friday, January 31, 2014. What are your Children Worth? I'm definitely not talking about literally selling your children, but I'm posing the question of, "What is worth more to you, your friendship with your children or your parenthood to your children? When we choose to be their friend, over being their parent then we are actively telling God "Your model isn't good enough for my family." How arrogant can we be? Are your children worth the price of your obedience? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Revelations & Ramblings: April 2010
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 28, 2010. What is our commitment worth? I haven't blogged in a while but I've really been praying about getting back into it, or better yet making an effort in blogging. When they chose to follow God they gave up their rights to follow God and what His will would be for their lives. The same for us, when we make a commitment to follow God and to die to ourselves everyday, Luke 9:23, and then we put our desires aside and seek God's will so we can do what He has for us. We are all guilty o...

Wednesday, January 21, 2009. Citizens of the Kingdom. When he learned that he had earned a perfect score, he grinned from ear to ear. Pujols had purposely studied for this exam for about a year, ontop of dedicating himself to the game of base ball which he had won the NL Gold Glove that year. He put his work in. Now to change thoughts for a second. Albert Pujols is known for his bat, his glove, and his faith. This is one of my favorite quotes from Albert Pujols,. When Albert Pujols grinned at becoming a ...

Revelations & Ramblings: January 2013
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 14, 2013. Over the past 14-15 years I have off and on tried to define worship. More times than not I've attempted to put worship in a nice, shiny box and say, "Look, this is what worship is! At the same time over the past 14-15 years the Holy Spirit has been convicting me that I don't get it either. Several books that have helped me, somewhat, shape a definition of worship would be:. The Unquenchable worshipper by Matt Redman. Facedown by Matt Redman. MacArthur, really dives off into more...

Revelations & Ramblings: February 2013
http://donscrivener.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 11, 2013. As we are well underway into the month of February, the theme of "Love" is on the minds of most people. I started a series at church this past Wednesday entitled:. Last Wednesday we looked at part 1, The Love of God, the Love for God:. We focused in on some way of "How" God shows us His love:. 1 He loves us first. John tells us in 1 John 4:8-10. 2 He loves us Fully - Romans 5:8. 3 He loves us Forever. Probably the most well-known verse of scripture, not only re-emphasizes how m...
