A Daily Walk on Oneplace.com

As we open Matthew chapter 21 today we encounter some powerful illustrations. One of them involving a withering fig tree. While application could be made to the religious system and nation of Israel, we'll also take a look in the mirror. Perhaps your life could be described as dried up and withered?

Ephesians chapter six is a wonderful guide for parents, and helps us understand the direction God wants us to go in, as we raise our children. And I'm sure you'd agree, it's not an easy task in this mixed up world we live in. But God has given us the tools we need to succeed in this high and holy calling.

Pastor John Randall has been leading us through the Book of Ephesians here lately. Today the focus continues to be on the family, and Paul the apostle shares just what we need to know to have a successful, thriving marriage as we saw last time. Not only that, he helps us parent the right way too. Ephesians six points out a few things we need to know and understand when it comes to raising kids for Christ.

Chapter five of Ephesians is in front of us today and if you were with us last time, you'll remember that we primarily discussed the God-given role of the wife in a marriage relationship. Today, its the guys' turn as we look at God's design for the husband. Husbands love your wives. That's the charge we've been given in the Scriptures, but what does that look like practically speaking? How do I have a good marriage and one that lasts? You're about to find out.

Today you'll hear God's plan for marriage. It's rather simple, but if followed, it will lead you to the sort of marriage He wants you to have. It's also important to consider the context, which is mutual submission to one another. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Remember singing that little tune in Sunday School, “This little light of mine I'm going to let it shine!” What a great reminder that we're to be children of light in a dark world… whether young or old! And today pastor John Randall encourages us not only to walk in light, but in love and wisdom! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Pastor John Randall is our teacher, and today John takes us to Matthew chapter twenty-one. When we think of Jesus, pictures of loving, gentle, meek and mild may flash into our minds. But today we'll see a different side to our Lord. He actually got very upset, and for good reason. People were being taken advantage of in the Temple. Could we be guilty of the very same thing?

Today on a Daily Walk, we'll look to Christ as our model on how to live, and we'll see the connection to the phrase, “Walk in Love,” as we move along. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

As parents we expect our kids to grow and mature as time goes by. Maybe your parents would chart that growth on a wall in the house with little marks and dates beside them! Today on a Daily Walk we discover that God wants us to grow up spiritually. Part of that process involves putting off and putting on certain things.

If you're a parent I'm sure you marvel at times at just how quickly the kids grow up. We expect our children to grow up physically and mature don't we! As we'll see today on a Daily Walk, God wants all of us to grow up spiritually too. This side of heaven we never completely mature, and so it's an ongoing process. Our goal is to be like Christ, and as we turn to Ephesians four today, pastor John Randall encourages us to move in that direction here in part one of “Spiritual Maturity.” To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Recently on a Daily Walk pastor John Randall has been teaching from the epistle of Ephesians. The first few chapters outlined the wealth of the believer. Now as we dig into chapter four we transition to the walk of the believer. And as you'll see in a moment we're to be unified in Christ.

If someone were to describe your Daily Walk, what do you suppose they'd say? Would they describe you as humble, gentle, loving and longsuffering? They should, as we're about to see. Today on a Daily Walk pastor John Randall enters the fourth chapter of Ephesians, a turning point in the epistle that now focuses on the walk of the believer. How were to live out this walk with the Lord. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

We've been going verse by verse through Matthew over the past few months, and today we'll begin our study in chapter twenty-one.

Join us in Ephesians three as we continue to discuss the apostle Paul's prayer for the Ephesian Church. He started by praying for strength and then greater depth and comprehension. Something we can all use in our daily walk. But this can certainly serve to help guide our prayer lives into what God wants it to be.

Today we open Ephesians chapter three and run across a prayer for power. It's no secret that the apostle Paul held a special place in his heart for the Ephesians and, in the passage before us, we see his heart for them come shining through in the form of a prayer. As we go through the study, our own prayer lives can be shaped into what God wants it to be. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Pastor John Randall is in Ephesians chapter three where a mystery is revealed. God brings two groups together to form the church… the Jews and Gentiles.

Pastor John Randall is steadily making his way through the Bible, and today's stop is in Ephesians chapter three, where a mystery is revealed. What once was hidden, has now been made known. It wasn't something we could figure out on our own. God had to reveal it, and He did. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

When it comes to salvation we need to realize we can't possibly earn it. Thankfully it's a free gift that God offers to us through His Son.

You've probably seen a TV show or at the very least a before and after picture. Maybe it was before the diet, and then after! Or before surgery and after.

When someone comes up to you and says, “Hey I've been praying for you,” it really means a lot! Today on a Daily Walk we'll hear of Paul's prayer for the Ephesians. And I'm sure it meant a lot to them when they heard it. But It's instructive, and encouraging in many ways to us too. Turn with us to Ephesians chapter one as we continue through the New Testament with pastor John Randall. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

If you're a Christian, you've been blessed, far greater than you may realize! Today on a Daily Walk we'll uncover some of these great spiritual blessings that include acceptance by God, forgiveness, redemption, adoption, sealed with the Spirit, chosen and given an inheritance! How does that sound? To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Do you want to be great in God's kingdom? It looks far different than what we so often hear in the world! We'll discover the path to true greatness involves being a servant, just as Jesus was. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Today we want to pause for a bit to reflect on who we are in Christ and all that has been made available to us. We've been blessed beyond measure, and I think you'll walk away from today's study greatly encouraged as you hear about these great blessings. Join us for our introduction to Ephesians.

We can all look back on our lives and see the truth in the verse whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. Perhaps it's a poor decision we made as a teenager and the consequences are still felt to this day? On the flip side of the coin you can probably think of a time when you did good to others and God really blessed you and that person as a result. Today on a Daily Walk Pastor John Randall will encourage us to invest in the Kingdom of God knowing it will pay in the long run.

We all sin and on a daily basis I might add. And when we do it's important to confess it, repent and move on. But what about when your neighbor, friend, family member or coworker slips in their daily walk? What if anything can you do to help? Today on a Daily Walk pastor John Randall opens Galatians chapter six where God's pattern for restoration is given to us. It's an important ministry, but must be done the right way and with the right heart. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Whether it's when your boss says you're not getting that raise after all, or someone cuts you off on the freeway, or budges in front of you in the line at the supermarket, we have all sorts of opportunities to either walk in the Spirit or in the flesh. The question we bring before you today on a Daily Walk is how can we overcome the flesh and be victorious in the battle?

Recently we've been going through Galatians, which really emphasizes that we're to live by grace and not under the law. While we may nod our head in agreement, are we applying what we know into how we live? As we transition to chapter five we get into a very practical portion of the epistle. We're talking about how to apply grace to our lives and live it out. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Pastor John Randall is in the midst of a verse by verse study of Matthew's gospel, and we'll join him in chapter twenty. Today's lesson will really help us to see where true greatness is found! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

If you're a Christian you're an heir of Christ! Jesus owns it all and is willing to share it with us. Even more astounding is it's not deserved, but out of His loving grace that He does this. Today on a Daily Walk we'll ponder this amazing reality found in Galatians chapter four. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Today, we pick up where we left off last time in our continuing study of Galatians. As we dig deep into chapter four, we'll look at what's ours in Christ. Once you give your life over to Christ, you become an heir of God. And one day we'll be truly blown away by what the Lord has prepared for us in heaven.

Here in this chapter of Galatians Paul is laying out a wonderful doctrinal defense for the grace of God. The Galatians had strayed away from a loving relationship with Jesus and the grace He alone provides. Instead they were trying to live up to the law, as so many still do to today. But as we're learning through Galatians, that only leads to frustration and failure. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Today on a Daily Walk we learn that none of us can become righteous in our own effort. Simply put, it's impossible. Instead we ought to believe in and live by the grace of Jesus. Really the law of God has no power to prevent sin - or redeem the sinner. Only grace can do that. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Today pastor John Randall opens Galatians chapter three and uncovers important instruction about the grace of God that we can all benefit from! Paul the apostle is about to pose a series of thought provoking questions taking these Galatian believers back to their experience when they were first saved.

Find your place in Matthew chapter twenty. Have you ever wondered why God just doesn't take us on up to heaven the moment we become saved? The answer in part is we have a job to do. And part of that involves serving Him and sharing the gospel. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

We're saved by grace through faith as Christians we believe that. But did you realize just as we need grace to start this Christian life, we need God's grace to grow and live day by day? Freedom is found as we live by grace and allow the Holy Spirit to empower our lives. That's the emphasis of today's message from Galatians chapters two and three on a Daily Walk.

We continue our new verse by verse series in Galatians on a Daily Walk. As we head back to chapter two remember the apostle Paul is in the midst of defending himself and his ministry. Lies were being spread about him and he wanted to clear things up. In doing so he takes a strong stand for the gospel of grace.

If you're a Christian you have a testimony and the Lord can use it in powerful ways. What a privilege it is to speak of God's grace that saves us and changes our lives. In Galatians chapter one we run across the Apostle Paul's testimony. We'll notice who he was before he was saved, and can't help but see the big difference after God got a hold of his life.

When it comes to our salvation from sin and approval with God we need to realize we can't earn it and we don't deserve it. It's by grace that we are saved, apart from works! Today on a Daily Walk pastor John Randall visits the first ten verses of Galatians chapter one. It's a marvelous declaration of the grace of God. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Countless numbers of people today are living under the impression that they can somehow earn a spot in heaven. But the book of Galatians makes it clear that salvation is not deserved but something God gives us. It comes to us by grace through faith and that alone. Today pastor John Randall will introduce his new study of Galatians. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Pastor John Randall is leading a study through the Bible, and we pick things up in Matthew chapter 20 today. Here we run across one of the many parables of Jesus, and this one speaks volumes about our service to the Lord and the motivation behind it.

You've probably taken more tests than you can count over the course of your education, and even at work. But today on a Daily Walk we'll give you one of the most important tests you'll ever take. It's a spiritual one. Take the test with us, and see how you do. We're on the final leg of our journey through Second Corinthians with pastor John Randall. And today he'll concentrate on chapter thirteen. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Today we continue our verse by verse study of Second Corinthians. I suppose one of the greatest frustrations in life is to express genuine love to someone, and have them turn around and give nothing back in return... except a cold shoulder or hatred. In chapter twelve of Second Corinthians, the apostle Paul draws our attention to his love for the church at Corinth. While he loved more and more, they gave less and less in return.

Today on a Daily Walk we take you to Second Corinthians twelve, where Paul the apostle describes a thorn in the flesh that he prayed three times for the Lord to take away. God didn't deliver Paul out of the trial, but sustained him in the midst of it. And He can do the same for you. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29

Most of us find it extremely annoying when someone brags of their accomplishments, like we see constantly in the world of professional sports. We'll learn today that boasting has no place in the Christian life, unless we are boasting in our weaknesses or about our good and gracious Lord.

Maybe you've noticed the Christian life isn't easy! At times we'll suffer a great deal, and you might even wonder why at such times! Today on a Daily Walk we'll observe what the apostle Paul went through during his life and ministry. It's a reminder that our daily walk will involve pain and heartache, it's to be expected.

Like the man we'll meet today many are under the impression that being a good person or going through the religious motions will save a person. But as you're about to learn it's possible to be sincere, respectful and religious and yet be totally lost. Today on a Daily Walk we turn to Matthew chapter nineteen and set out to answer the question, How can I get into heaven and be assured of eternal life?

There are costs involved with whatever vocation you choose in life. If you want to be a pro athlete, there are countless hours of practice and strength training. If you want to be a policeman, the training and preparations are long and arduous. What about being in ministry? Oh, there's a cost involved there as well, as pastor John will point out today. Are you up for the challenge? Let's take a look at what the apostle Paul went through for the sake of the ministry, as we open Second Corinthians eleven.

Have you ever sat through a church service where the preaching of the Word and the gospel was neglected or even substituted with other things? Many churches are gradually departing from the Bible, and it's an alarming trend! There are certain things that must never be removed or altered, and the gospel is one of them.
