That other person? They may respond or they may not respond, but you have done the only thing Jesus can bless, and you can sleep well tonight. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/hells-highest-compliment-6971 2013-09-30T09:36:32-05:00 When you're making a difference for Jesus, you're on the Devil's list, and honestly I hope you're on it. Making that list is hell's highest compliment. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/the-boss-is-the-glue-6968 2013-09-25T09:56:00-05:00 Just tell Him, "Lord, anything goes." See, He knows the next step, He knows the results, and it is the One and it is Jesus who brings all things together. What did it say here, "In Him all things hold together." You give that out-of-control part of your life to the Master, and give Him total control. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/heavens-laser-6967 2013-09-24T14:38:12-05:00 When you pray specifically, in faith believing, you focus the healing, heart-changing, mountain-moving power of God on something or someone that you care about. So expect a miracle! http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/the-nip-factor-6960 2013-09-17T12:37:46-05:00 you will experience Christ's love and Christ's power on a new level as He overrules your tendency to snarl or to bite. The people around you don't need a wound from you, they need supernatural love. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/your-surprising-platform-6957 2013-09-17T12:07:08-05:00 What you think is disaster today might be making you a place from which you can share Jesus with someone, and they'll listen because of what you've been through. That could be your surprising platform to change someone's eternal address. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-relationships/snowballsor-avalanches-6833 2013-03-20T10:13:43-05:00 Today is a snowball. You can handle a snowball coming at you. It's just that when you put many of those snowballs together and try to deal with them all at once, you're going to be trying to deal with an avalanche. That's not how God made you. He gives us strength for one day at a time. I know that from Deuteronomy 33:25. It says, "He will give you strength equal to your day." http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/the-power-of-powerlessness-6831 2013-03-18T10:47:45-05:00 Right now you have the opportunity to run and wrap yourself around your Heavenly Father like a desperate child. And in that complete dependency His power takes over unobstructed by your efforts to do it. It's all God; it's none of you, because there's no more of you left to fight. And at that moment you are more powerful than you have ever been - powerless but powerful. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/flash-gordon-rescues-6827 2013-03-12T10:39:19-05:00 You've been to the edge of desperation, but remember the Lord rescued you out of them all. Maybe you're in a perilous or a painful place again. This time it looks like there is no way out of this, Flash, but then it's looked like that before at the end of other episodes and you're still here. Get some perspective. Stand back. Remember a lifetime of the Lord's rescues. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/painful-directions-6812 2013-02-19T10:35:26-05:00 Here's a good rule of life. If you're going to get the pain, get the point. See, God loves you enough to pull on you even if it hurts when you're headed for something that is going to hurt you. Listen to Him. Listen to His Word. Listen to the gentle Spirit impulses on the inside. Do what He's telling you to do.
