James 4:7 tells us to submit to God and to resist the devil and he will flee! So, who is in control of your life? I hear so many Christians saying God is in control. Are you fully submitted to God? We live in a fallen world that is absolutely not being controlled by Jesus! Pray for God to be in Control! “God is in control!” is only true for you if and when you are actually obeying His voice…
In Hebrews 8:11, we are told that “all shall know Me.” And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. – Heb 8:11 KJV Jesus is praying to God in John 17:3 and says that life eternal is knowing the only true God. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ,…
Will worship is a “self-imposed religion (Colossians 2:23 NKJV).” Or you could say it requires “strong devotion (Col 2:23 NLT).” Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh. – Col 2:23 KJV In other words, it takes away what God can do in and through you and makes your religious piety all about you and your efforts or works. For…
In Colossians 4 and 1 Peter 3, Paul and Peter tell us that we can know how and be prepared to give an answer to every man. Let your speech [be] alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. – Col 4:6 KJV But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that…
What is it? Trials, tribulations, persecutions! Whatever “it” is, are you going through it? Most likely the answer to this question is, “YES!” Does it ever seem as if the more you seek first God’s kingdom, the more hell comes at you? Jesus says in Matthew 16:18 that the gates of hell cannot prevail against His church. In Matthew 16:16-17 God has revealed to Peter that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. Your Foundation Matters Jesus tells us…
What??? Did you really say, “Do whatever you want?” on a blog about God??? YES! This whole website is based on the following verse: Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. – Psa 37:4 KJV Believing God’s true word takes faith. Go figure. (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) – 2Co 5:7 KJV Believe Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that…
I hope you had an extraordinary Mother’s Day celebration with your family, your mother, your church, your world. But, if for whatever reason, Mother’s Day is a day you have to just persevere through, there is hope for the Mother’s Day aftermath! The Hope of Glory! Regardless of what kind of day you had yesterday, Christ in you is the hope of glory! To whom God would make known what [is] the riches of the glory of this mystery among…
God has already judged every human being worthy of the blood of the lamb. To sit in judgment contrary to that is to sow to the lust of your flesh, the lust of your eyes, and the pride of your life.
