Obedience in the Bible: Hebrews 13:17
This is another Bible passage that discusses how we are to relate to people put in authority over us. We're to obey and respect them (so long as doing so doesn't disobey God), and we are not to do anything to make their tasks more difficult than necessary.

Blessings in the Bible: Deuteronomy 28:1-14
God is here describing for the Israelites the blessings and benefits that would spring from obedience to His word. While the particulars of these blessings are different now than they were in Old Testament times, the fact remains that spiritual blessings from God are a natural result of obedience to Him.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - All Accelerator, No Brakes - #8163
...sometimes I’m the runaway truck. You know, all accelerator and no brakes. And I don’t think I’m alone. It’s a problem with a lot of us fast-moving, make-it-happen people. We get going so fast that we lose our brakes.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Making Prayer Come to Life
Is prayer meaningful and exciting to you, or just a matter of repeating words? Prayer is often a word that doesn't come with very much excitement to some Christians. It's actually the most personal and important aspect of a Christian's life with Jesus Christ and the key that unlocks all the riches of life's most important relationship.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Highest Wall in the World - #5685
God is the relationship we've been missing and looking for our whole lives. We're lonely because we don't have His love. We're empty because only He can fill the hole in our heart. We're wondering what the meaning of our life is, but we can't get to the only One who knows, because He put us here. The wall is there. If we die with that wall still there between us and God, it will be there forever. The Bible has a word for that - hell. Even the heaven we want to go to is on the other side of that wall.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Useless Hand-Me-Downs - #5682
The fact is we've all inherited empty ways of life from our parents who were probably copying one of their parents, who were copying one of their parents. And now another generation is about to be marked by this weakness, or this sin that has marked so many before us unless it stops with you; which it can because of Jesus.
