1 Thessalonians 5:23 tells us that we are a three-part being made up of a spirit, a soul, and a body. We must examine ourselves by looking into our spiritual mirror or the Bible to find out who we are in the spirit now that we are born again.
The Holy Spirit speaks to me with words – sometimes one word, sometimes a scripture and sometimes in relation to a VIDEO/SONG. The Holy Spirit directs me to the videos which result in articles > The Anchor Holds. The words he spoke to me this time > Crucified with Christ. GALATIANS 2:20 I am CRUCIFIED with CHRIST; nevertheless, I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live…
Five words that can CHANGE THE WORLD FOR CHRIST: Each One Can Reach One! 2 CORINTHIANS 9:7 Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly, or under compulsion, for GOD loves a CHEERFUL GIVER. DID YOU KNOW? There are 100 Bible Verses about SHARING WITH OTHERS! WOW! Here are just a few to remind you of the POWER OF SHARING. You are a LABORER for CHRIST. To be “steadfast and unmovable” means that we must stand strong in our…
We don’t really need to be reminded that life is hard. The Bible tells us that in this life we will have trials and tribulations. I had believed for years that those trials and tribulations came from God as a way of teaching us a lesson or punishment for not living up to His standards. Now I am so thankful that I know that God wants to use His Word to teach us. And He lets us know that we have a real enemy that…
The Holy Spirit speaks to me from WORDS on a page. For this post, the word was ARMOUR. And that word led me to the question, “Where is your armour?” Seeking the answer to this question led me down a path of new understanding and revelations of what is MINE in CHRIST through HIS ARMOUR. Then, I was led to this song with the title THE ARMOUR. THE ARMOUR – The lyrics touched my heart >> And the best way to get back…
Psalm 1 gives us some excellent wisdom from God that we can only fully understand through the Revelation of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. Let’s walk through Psalm 1 in light of this awesome revelation and its absolute relevance for believers and warning for the ungodly today. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. Psalm 1:1 Don’t Go There Jesus hung out with the worst sinners and was even accused…
Today is already a very happy birthday for me. It is actually already the best and most happy birthday I have ever had. Before I can tell you how awesome this day is already, I must tell you about the month-long battle that has been raging in my mind. Everybody is Going Through Something! First, I know that we are all at war. We are all going through something because Jesus Himself tells us that in this world we will…
Why did Jesus say “Get behind Me, Satan” when He was rebuking Peter? I thought God is love (1 John 4:8), and love is patient and kind (1 Corinthians 13:4-7)! But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get behind me Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men. Mark 8:33, Matthew 16:23 Love is Kind “Get behind me Satan!” was the kindest thing Jesus could have said to Peter! Peter was being deceived by the enemy and trying to get…
Addiction is real. Whether it’s food, sex, drugs, alcohol, etc. It is miserable and it is real. The good news is that if you are struggling with addiction, you can stop fighting addiction today, right now. It’s Not All In Your Head When I began studying Dr. Jason Fung’s books about Diabetes and Obesity and other dietary diseases, I began finding out that our bodies react to our actions. When Dr. Fung explained that we are not fighting willpower but…
According to Romans 10:4, Christ is the end of performance for righteousness for those who believe. However many believers still approach God based on their performance. This is because of deception from the enemy of God and His church! The church is being so caught up in the busyness of dead works to please men and look good to the world that we are not being discipled. We are not seeking first God’s kingdom and His righteousness! I used to…
In 2 Corinthians 13:5, Paul reminds his readers that Jesus Christ is in them unless they are reprobates. Paul commands us to examine for ourselves whether or not we are in the faith. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17). I used to think that to examine myself meant to examine what a wretched sinner I am and stay in a constant state of repentance. If God chooses to remember my sin no more (Hebrews 8:12), and…
