The Best Medicine

by Leave a Comment

 There are two stages of emotions that can arise spiritually from Satan when we do not know how to recognize them and subdue them in the name of Jesus. One is the immediate emotion that tempts us to act before we think and the second stage is when we allow the evil spirit to manifest in our minds to the point that it can grow into something that it should not to restrict or divide our relationships at a later date.

 So many times when we do not release the seeds of anger, jealously, bitterness, unforgiveness or pride they grow into something that causes us to be easily confused and tend to cause us to have shallow relationships with no depth in understanding.  When we do not know how to communicate in love and release the things that are holding us back then we often find ourselves either depressed or very temperamental.

 The world disagrees with this because they do not understand it and they can’t make any money off of it. The best medicine that we can ever experience comes in the Word of God in complete honesty with nothing to hide…

History Is A Tool For The Future

by Leave a Comment

  Have you ever considered the importance of studying history not to to just learn the stories but to learn where and why something went wrong? So many times we get caught up in knowing the stories in history that we forget the main reason in learning from our past to possibly prevent something in our future.

 The Lord gives us the stories in the Old Testament to teach us how to be alert spiritually to evil and to recognize something in sin that can develop in us to divert the path that we are on. In Genesis 4 the Lord taught us this lesson before everything else with Cain and it was recorded for our own recognition to prevent something from consuming us to the point that it can destroy us. 

 History is a great tool when we know how to apply it to our lives today without becoming stuck in it to the point that we miss the lesson in it. The same evil spirits that have taken down men and women in history are the same spirits that attack us today. Don’t be fooled and think that history is only history because if you really pay attention to the times you will find that history tends to repeat itself until the people learn how to walk with Jesus to reach the other side…amen

The Art Of Forgiveness

by Leave a Comment

 1 John 2:9 ” He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in darkness until now.” Are you easily frustrated by the inevitable shortcomings of others? Are you a prisoner of bitterness or regret? If so, perhaps you need a refresher course in the art of forgiveness . If there exist even one person, dead or alive, whom you have not forgiven (and that includes yourself) follow God’s commandments and His Will for your life by forgiving that person today.
 Remember that bitterness,anger, and regret are not of part of God’s plan for your life but Forgiveness is. Think about it; Doing an injury puts you below your enemy; Revenging makes you equal with him; Forgiving sets you above the enemy!

The art of forgiveness is what sets us free…

Are You In Spiritual Slavery?

by Leave a Comment

 Have y0u ever thought about the different spiritual strongholds of Satan that place us in a form of bondage to rob us of the freedom that we can experience in the love of Jesus Christ?  Think about it; Is there something in your life that is holding you back? Due to the lack of proper teaching in the Word of God and our country drifting away from the Truth it is easy to fall into spiritual slavery that allows Satan to rob us of our purpose and our joy in life.

 Many people in the church and outside the church are walking in physical freedom here in America but little do they know how they are in spiritual bondage because they do not understand the overall objective in this life. Jesus did not only come here to save us but He came here to teach us that there is much more to life than what we physically think that we see. This life is is to serve God’s purpose and to decide the direction which we take from Heaven or Hell. I challenge you today to look DEEEEP within yourself and ask God to point out something in your life that could be holding you back. Once you recognize this whether in greed, anger, jealously, unforgiveness, pride, lust, deceit and the list goes on and on the next step is asking God to help you remove these strongholds through the love of Jesus in order to be set free…amen

So many times we allow Satan to have victory because we forget who is in control…

God Loves You

by Leave a Comment

 There is one thing that I have truly discovered in this physical life and that is just when we think that we can’t go no more that God will step in to show us the Way. So many  times in life when we are broke, when our marriages are in shambles, when our children won’t seem to listen,and when our jobs seem to be meaningless we tend to allow ourselves to be robbed by Satan spiritually in thinking that there is no hope or use when there really is.

 This morning the Lord has placed on my heart to tell you that there is Hope in every circumstance when we learn to place our trust in Him rather than in ourselves or in the world. No matter how bad things may seem or how dark your day may be place your trust in Jesus and allow Him to bring you through. It helps to realize that we sometimes have to go through the hard times to learn how to appreciate the good times….amen

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
