Spontaneous short episodes recorded Off The Cuff from the heart and life of Matt Knoll.

When God brings your life into a transition, it is always for your good. Keep focused on Jesus as He writes out your story perfectly. He will bring you through into a place of new and exciting things.

Life is hard and is full of so much responsibility with family, work, health, finances, ministry, and on and on and on. We may have seasons where we are carrying to many things, and eventually find ourselves running on fumes, and next thing you know is that we are burnt out. We need to recognize these times and make the necessary changes in order to get back your health, energy and joy.

We live is such a perverted and sinful world where there are many things that can defile a man. Yes, Jesus makes us pure and clean by His sacrifice on the cross and our faith in Him, but we are called to live holy and pure lives before the Lord. If you are a struggling with things that are defiling you as a man of God, Jesus has grace and mercy for you as you confess these things to Him.

When we are faced with really hard times and things only seem to be getting worse, we will be tempted to doubt God and give in to fear. These are the times where we must hold on to our faith in God and trust fully in His promises for us. Mark 5: 21-43 Isaiah 41:10

In a world of economic uncertainty and massive inflation, we all can worry about having what we and our families need. We can worry about not having enough money for food, rent, or clothes. Jesus has promised in his word that if we seek him first in our lives, then EVERYTHING that we need will be provided.CONNECT https://linktr.ee/thefrontlineman

As Christians we are all called to ministry. We are called to be witnesses of Jesus and to preach the gospel to all people. But sometimes, God will have a specific call to a specific ministry for His people. I hope this episode encourages you if you are sensing the Lord calling you into the ministry.

Life is chaotic. We feel the weight of stress, pressure and responsibility. It gets hard at times, and we find that we have lost our peace. This is not God's will for us. He wants us to live in His perfect peace.

You may be waiting on God to see answers to your prayers. You may feel like breakthrough will never come. Sometimes we need to set aside some intentional time in our Christian life, and do some prayer and fasting. As we deny our flesh from food, and lean totally upon God, we can believe Him for breakthrough.

God has had many of us in a season of preparation. I believe this year, God is going to place before us an opportunity or position for us to step into. This is the thing that God has been making us ready for. Don't be afraid to step into whatever God is showing you. Keep your eyes on Him and step out of the boat and into the waters of the unknown. Matthew 14: 22-31

We are all so busy with family, work and hobbies that we can easily neglect spending time reading our Bibles. This can happen to us all if we do not prioritize the Word of God in our lives. Let's make reading and obeying our Bibles a top priority in our lives gentlemen!

Waiting can be very frustrating. We want everything that God has for us now, but waiting is a MASSIVE part of the faith journey with God. God's timing and His ways are perfect, so be at peace as you continue to wait upon the Lord!

Every man who is a Christian will still at times make the wrong and selfish choice to commit sin. Sometimes when we do, we really feel the weight of that sin and are bombarded with guilt, shame and condemnation. Because of the mercy and love of God, and the fact that because of our faith in Jesus, we are children of God, we can get up in His grace, repent and keep standing for Jesus. If you have fallen into sin, remember what Christ has done on the cross and GET UP!!

Joseph wrestled with the fact that his fiance Mary, was pregnant before they were married. This was impossible as she was a virgin. The bible says that he considered breaking off the engagement, assuming that Mary had cheated on him. This of course was not true, and God revealed this to Joseph. Sometimes God allows for some painful situations in our lives that make no sense, that seem to be very bad and can't be of God. But God will use these things for His purposes and for our good if we trust Him

We all love to receive gifts. As a man, I would say that two of the best gifts I have received in my life would be my wife and our kids. The ABSOLUTE greatest gift I have ever received is Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. Jesus truly is the BEST gift!

Prayer is one of the most simple things any Christian man can do, but yet its also one of the most difficult things to do. Satan does not want us praying, because he knows that when we pray, God hears and answers. Sometimes we have to pray for many years, until we get an answer. Keep praying Gentlemen. Luke 18: 1-8 NLT 1 Thessalonians 5:17 NLT James 5:13 NLT Psalms 18: 4-6 NLT

The Christian life is like a marathon race. It is made up of many hills and valleys, along with straight and seemingly never ending long and lonely roads. You may start off the race feeling strong and confident, but eventually you will face feelings of fatigue, weariness and exhaustion, and will be tempted to stop running and quit the race. God's will is that you keep running the race that He has set before you, until you come to the finish line, where eternity with Jesus is your eternal prize.

This is a hard one. Men never want to confess their sins, mistakes and failures. But if we don't confess our sins to God, they will come out in a way that will bring harm and ruin into our lives. Jesus ALWAYS forgives us when we are honest with Him about out sin. His desire is that we walk free and without the guilt of sin.

Men never want to admit when they are afraid. But ALL men will have times where they really are fearful and in some cases terrified. Circumstances can enter our lives, and grip any man with great fear. There are times where even if we are afraid, we must NOT show it, for the sake of our wives and children, BUT there are also times where we need to be honest and tell others, and God that we are afraid!

Discouragement is something that we all will battle with from time to time. Discouragement is something in the bible that God warns His people about often. If we are not on guard against discouragement, it can take us out of God's will for our lives. If you are discouraged, know that God is with you, walking you through that dark valley.

Most men are living however they want to live. They go wherever they want, hang with whoever they want, watch whatever they want, marry whoever they want and on and on. God has given us instructions and commands in the Bible of how we are supposed to live. I hope you are challenged and encouraged by today's episode.

Every Christian man will come face to face with many things that will be a temptation for him. Temptation is not a sin, but when we give in to the temptation, that is when it becomes sin. Even Jesus was tempted in every way that we are, but He never gave in to it. The best thing to do when we are up against temptations in our lives, is to Run Away!! Get far away from whatever it is in that moment that is tempting you to sin against God. The Lord has promised that when we are tempted, He will make a way of escape for us. I hope you are challenged, and encouraged by today's episode.

Some Christian men find it very difficult to ask other Christian men to be praying for them. We can so often allow our pride, our ego, or our fear, to cause us to not ask for prayer. We will all have times in our lives, where we really do need other godly men to be lifting us up in prayer. There is no shame is asking for prayer!

Life gets busy for all of us, and sometimes that busyness can lead to great fatigue and even burnout. It is important for us to recognize honestly when we arrive at a time in our lives, where we need to step back and take a much needed break. Finding proper seasons of rest is crucial for the long haul. You cannot run on E for long, and you must intentionally pull over to refuel.
