Spiritual Warfare...
2012-02-08 14:11 UTC by admin

The devil works in many ways to break the relationships of God because he knows there is a mighty power as we come together in the body of Christ. For example: The first stage of spiritual warfare is to do everything possible to prevent something of God from joining together as one. This occurs through distractions and distrust in order to wear...

2012-01-29 14:57 UTC by admin

There are several ingredients that make up affective prayer.  Think about it! Have you ever tried to bake a cake without mixing the batter? Have you ever tried to substitute something artificial in place of something real? Or, have you ever left something out due to thinking it was not needed? In order for our prayers to be affective it is wise...

The Value Of One
2011-12-30 11:29 UTC by admin

It is very easy to get wrapped up in the numbers that we forget the value of One. Spiritually Satan wants us to focus on the quantity where God wants us to focus on the Quality. Satan leads unbalanced production where God leads a Balanced Life with Quality production. For how we handle the value of one often displays in whom or what we...

God's Value In Time...
2011-12-29 11:23 UTC by admin

If we put a value on our time then what value do we see in Gods Time? If we desire the most value for the time we give then shouldn’t we put a higher value on the time that we have received? There is a value for the Life we have and it is a price that we could not afford. The price has already been paid and it is now up to us to make the...

Stay Focused
2011-12-19 10:48 UTC by admin

God gives us instruction in the Holy Bible, and guidance through the Holy Spirit. But far too often we worry about the details or the obstacles in our coarse instead of just focusing on what it takes to just get the job done.

When we allow our fears or doubts to control us then we are doubting God’s power to bring us through. It is not our job...

Trust In The Lord
2011-11-29 10:13 UTC by admin

1 Corinthians 3 Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”; 20 and again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of...

Living In The Spirit
2011-11-28 11:06 UTC by admin

Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in Christ. 2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. 3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are...

Make A Difference...
2011-11-23 10:52 UTC by admin

We must never rely solely on our own wisdom or skills. But it is equally wrong to sit and do nothing when there are still actions we can take to overcome certain problems. Do all that you can to fix the problem then trust God to do His part.

James tells us “Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it, sins.”...

Shake the Snake....
2011-11-22 10:26 UTC by admin

Yesterday we looked upon the lesson of Paul being bitten by the snake and this morning lets take this lesson a little bit further based on the needed lesson. The bible says in Acts 28 vs 6 that the people waited a long time to see what happened to Paul and after they saw that he never swelled up or suddenly dropped dead that they finally...
