Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 05 Jan 2026 06:00:00 -0500

As I take this year off from weekly Monday Musings, our world is still living in such tumultuous times. I pray that this study this year is one you can really dig into. So many are afraid of the book of Revelation in the Bible, but if we truly realized how it reveals Jesus to us, we may see it in a totally different way. I pray your heart is encouraged this year and I pray you grow deeper in love with Jesus and His Word.

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 22 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0500

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0500

he Holy Spirit is full of so many wonderful gifts that He brings. One of the greatest is the power to make us fearless in telling people about Jesus. As we celebrate the season of His birth, what if we prayed for a fresh filling of the Holy Spirit so our hearts will become so full that we just can't help but tell others about all He has done in our lives!

Episode 409: Are You Living With a Saturated Sponge?

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 08 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0500

The Holy Spirit comes into our hearts at salvation. Yet, many of us never ask for anything more. However, Scripture tells us we should be continually filled with the Holy Spirit. This Living Water that changes everything. I hope today's musing will create a hunger in your heart for more of the Holy Spirit.

Episode 408: The Old Order of Things Has Passed Away

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 01 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0500

Sometimes we hold onto old things when God is telling us it is time to let go because there is something new He wants to do. Sometimes there are old, painful things God wants us to know that are about to come to an end, and He is going to bring something new. I believe this is a word for your heart today. Pray it encourages you in whichever place you may be.

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 17 Nov 2025 06:00:00 -0500

Grieving is so not easy. We want to avoid it. Set it aside. But grief will not be ignored forever. As I'm grieving today, I thought we could talk a little more about it.

Episode 405: Intellectually Driven or Spirit-Led

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 10 Nov 2025 06:00:00 -0500

Every church has an option in how they want to make their decisions, so does every life. Let's talk about this difference on this Monday morning.

Episode 404: Settling For Performance Over Presence

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 03 Nov 2025 06:00:00 -0500

One of the greatest hinderances to a move of the Holy Spirit in our local churches is when our services are more about entertaining people than hosting the presence of the Holy Spirit.

Episode 403: Religion or Relationship

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 27 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Many of us grew up in environments that gave us the "rules" of following Jesus. However, few of us learned the beauty of walking with Jesus in relationship. This has caused many of us to miss the "more" the Holy Spirit has for us. Watch the full message here: https://youtu.be/Je6xM0TzApE

Episode 402: Choosing Comfort Over Disruption

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Episode 401: When Your Old Wounds Don't Heal

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 13 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Many of us have truly never allowed God to heal the wounds of our past. And when we don't allow His healing balm to wash over us and bind us up, we hinder getting all the more that the Holy Spirit has for us.

Episode 400: Obstacle to More of the Holy Spirit - Unrepentant Sin

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 06 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Over the next six weeks, I'm going to share some excerpts from a recent message I preached entitled "What if There's More?" about both personal and corporate things that keep us from encountering the "more" of the Holy Spirit. This week I'm dealing with a topic not talked about much anymore. Sin. I pray it will encourage you and challenge you. None of us should ever want to miss God's more.

Episode 399: 30-Second Sound Bites

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 29 Sep 2025 06:00:00 -0400

I've realized we live in a culture of 30-second sound bites, and this is a strategic scheme of the enemy. It opens our hearts up to so many untrue things. I hope your heart will be impacted with this musing this morning.

Episode 216: Are You Stormproof?

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 22 Sep 2025 06:00:00 -0400

I hope this previous musing speaks to your heart today... If the recent storms that just passed through Tennessee showed us anything, they revealed storms are no respecter of person. However, standing after they are gone has everything to do with how we build.

Episode 260: Pigs and Pearls

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 05 Dec 2022 06:00:00 -0500

Pigs and pearls are actually something Jesus talks about in the Sermon on the Mount. Not everyone can handle the holy moments of our hearts. Jesus makes it clear we need to be careful to whom we offer them.

Episode 259: It’s Just So Easy…

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 28 Nov 2022 06:00:00 -0500

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 21 Nov 2022 06:00:00 -0500

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 14 Nov 2022 06:00:00 -0500

In the Sermon on the Mount, in order to build stormproof Jesus tells us that fasting should be a part of our life. It’s important you realize the power in this piece of your arsenal as a follower of Jesus Christ.

Episode 256: The Bigness Of Our God

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 07 Nov 2022 06:00:00 -0500

Jesus begins and ends The Lord’s Prayer with telling us to focus on the bigness of our God. Knowing this gives us faith for everything in between.

Episode 255: Satan Has Asked For You…

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 31 Oct 2022 06:00:00 -0400

He asked for Peter. He asked for Job. Why wouldn’t he be asking for us? That’s why Jesus tells us how to pray in regards to this enemy of our souls.

Episode 254: The Thief Of Unforgiveness

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 24 Oct 2022 06:00:00 -0400

It really is, you know. It robs destiny and joy and it even robs God’s ability to bestow His best on us. Is it worth it?

Episode 253: Keep Us Alive With Three Square Meals

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 17 Oct 2022 06:00:00 -0400

The Message translation states “keep us alive with three square meals.” We know it as “give us this day our daily bread” in The Lord’s Prayer. We get so focused on the needs of tomorrow. But that is not how Jesus calls us to live or tells us to pray.

Episode 251: Why Do We Start With “Our Father?”

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 03 Oct 2022 06:00:00 -0400

There is a very important reason Jesus tells us to begin prayer with knowing who our Father is. Let’s talk about it on this Monday morning.

Episode 250: Not “If” You Pray, But “When”

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 26 Sep 2022 06:00:00 -0400

We pray differently in different seasons. Sometimes they are raw. Sometimes it’s hard. Sometimes they are tender. But the most important thing is that we pray.

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 12 Sep 2022 06:00:00 -0400

Another interruption in our series called Stormproof today, because sometimes you just need to. This week we talk about how the spirit of deception seems to be the spirit of this age.

Episode 247: We Interrupt These Musings…

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 05 Sep 2022 06:00:00 -0400

From the schoolhouse to their bedroom, your child is bombarded by the enemy. A parent is their first line of defense. That’s why God chose you.

Episode 246: Oh, Those Growing Pains!

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 29 Aug 2022 06:00:00 -0400

Could it be that much of what we are seeing today is because of a maturity problem in the Body of Christ? Isn’t that a sobering thought? God has been so patient with us. What is preventing us from being the mature Body of Christ we are called to?

Episode 245: What Does Your Heart Do With A Real Enemy?

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 22 Aug 2022 06:00:00 -0400

It’s so hard to love those who truly desire our destruction. In fact, separate from Jesus, I would say it is impossible. But there really is a way to live in order to be stormproof even when an enemy rears their head.

Episode 244: But What If They Have Hurt Me?

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 15 Aug 2022 06:00:00 -0400

It is so normal to want to get what is coming to us. Especially when we have been hurt or abused. But Jesus has called us to live a different way. Not always easy. But no less true.

Episode 242: The Pain Of Divorce

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 01 Aug 2022 06:00:00 -0400

Ronald Reagan created no-fault divorce in the state of California, and he later said it would become one of the greatest mistakes of his life. The moral unraveling of our nation could be placed at the feet of divorce and the damage it has created in our families. What might Jesus desire to say?

Episode 224: Can Blessing Come From Surrender?

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 21 Mar 2022 06:00:00 -0400

There is such beauty in surrender. It is the existence of the Christian experience. Yet, it is what we often resist most. Not realizing it is the divine exchange that gives us access to the fullness of God’s Kingdom.

Episode 218: When Work Is Our God

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 07 Feb 2022 06:00:00 -0500

Covid has changed everything about the way we work. For some it has even changed whether we are working at all. It is exposing whether we have laid a foundation out of our work instead of the fact that we are a workmanship.

Episode 217: When a Relationship is Your God

Denise Hildreth Jones — Mon, 31 Jan 2022 06:00:00 -0500
