Singleness of Heart

Cindy Arora July 30, 2024

Take a closer look at the photo above. Do you see the haziness? I wondered, “Do they have a smoke machine here at Pursuit?” No. They do not. That cloud that you see is supernatural. It is the cloud of God’s glory.

What does Revival look like? . . .

Ready to Celebrate by Wendy Thayer

A Life Worth Living

Cindy Arora August 15, 2023

Unrestrained lust and self-gratification will not satisfy. Neither will wealth or success (Ecc. 2:1-11). King Solomon could confidently state these things because he had more women (700 wives, 300 concubines) and more wealth than anyone else – ever. So, he should know.

Neither is wisdom . . .

My Grieving Soul by Bay Isle

Cindy Arora July 4, 2023

My quiet time with the Lord turned into a struggle.  I searched my heart, questioning if I had hidden sin. I kept reading my Bible, praying and singing songs of worship that came to mind. Exhausted from my efforts, I continued . . .

21 Day Fast

Cindy Arora January 10, 2023

Do you have a prayer corner, with candles and ambiance? My friend has an awesome one. She set-up her home office as a small prayer chapel. A beautifully ornate cross is centered on her bookshelf. She has soft lighting, worship music and colorful pillows. A sense of peace fills . . .

Victory March

Cindy Arora June 7, 2022

At His second coming, Jesus will finally and fully destroy the enemies of God (Rev. 20). When He comes on His white horse, His armies will be with Him (Rev. 1).

Have you ever wondered why Jesus needs an army when He is already the Victor? His is an army of worshipers. This sounds like a victory march. . .

Return to the Lord

Cindy Arora August 31, 2021

During my young adult years, I walked my own way without regard to God’s leading. Parenting was a spiritual wakeup call for me! The weight of responsibility to raise those children right threw me on my face at the foot of the cross. I simply could not do it on my own. . . . .

A Cog in the Kingdom

Cindy Arora May 4, 2021

A woman called our prayer ministry about a broken relationship with her ex-husband. She had to deal with him to see her kids, but their interactions were stressful and draining due to the strife.

As we prayed for her, God showed me a tiny cog turning a much larger wheel in a machine works. The impression I had was . . .
