AMAZING PEACE

Posted on by

Jesus is the PRINCE OF PEACE. Jesus said “Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called “The Children of God.” (Matthew 5:9 ).Are you a peacemaker, do you go about every where making peace? Then you shall be blessed and be called a child of God. Here is the other side of the coin, if they don’t want Jesus then Jesus said, “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.  For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.  And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household.  He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.  And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.”(Matthew 10:34-38 ). “While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.  Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee.  But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?  And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.” ( Matthew 12:46-50).  “So there was a division among the people because of him.” (John 7:43 ). Our job is to bring them peace by bringing them Jesus, but if they don’t want Jesus, then they never will find peace “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” ( John 3:36).There is no peace without Jesus Christ. “But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.” (Isaiah 57:20,21 ). ” and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.“ ( IIThessalonians 2:10-12.) God said that he will chose the delusions for people who reject the truth, even though they think that they are chosing their own delusions. “I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.”( Isaiah 66:4,5) “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” (John 14:27 ).“ And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:7). You can have peace in the midst of a storm. You can have joy when there is no joy to be found. Just look up to the Lord. Just cry out to Jesus and he will immediately be there for you.

Say this prayer if you want to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

DO YOU WANT TO BE CONTENT ?

Posted on by

 Are we supposed to want something? The Prophet Daniel and his fellows saw a hand writing on the wall, which you can read about in Daniel Chapter 5. The hand wrote ME’-NE, ME’-NE, TE’-KEL, U-PHARSIN, on the wall, which­­­­ means  “Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.” (This means they were found needing to be right with God. What if you were sitting in your living room and you saw a hand appear, and write ME’-NE, ME’-NE, TE’-KEL, U-PHARSIN, on your wall?) “And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.“(1 Timothy 6:8-12). “Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” ( Hebrews 13:5). It seems that the heart of man can never be satisfied. We will always want more and more. As soon as we get what we want we want something else, or more, or better. This is the opposite of what the Bible teaches us. In fact the Scripture says; “Let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” ( James 1:4). “ Mark the perfect man, and behold the up right: for the end of that man is peace.” ( Psalm 37:37). If we delight ourselves in the Lord, he will give us the desires of our heart. ( Psalm 37:4). This verse shows us that we should just want more and more of Jesus, and his Love, and his Word, and the Holy Spirit! Amen? King David was a man after God’s own heart. Lord help us to be that way. ( Acts 13:22). “Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.“( Psalm 73:25). Beloved if we desire contentment we need to ask the Lord to help us follow these verses. “But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” (Matthew 6:33). Of course if we just want more of Jesus, then we will also want everyone to know him too!

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF HEAVEN RIGHT NOW ( video & text)

Would you like to be more loving, and kind, and more like Jesus? One thing I think that would help us all, is to realize that the way we treat the Lord and others is how the Lord will treat us. “For with the same measure that ye meet withal it shall be measured to you again.”(Luke 6:38b ).”whatsoever a man soweth the same shall he reap.”(Galatians 6:7b). “Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you ,do ye even so unto them.”(Matthew 7:12a). Even if people don’t treat you right, go ahead and treat them right.” Be not overcome with evil, but over come evil with good.”(Romans 12:21).“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.”( Matthew 5:44-48).So if you want the Lord to Love you and bless you and be kind to you. Then treat the Lord and others the same way you want the Lord and others to treat you. Jesus said; “THOU SHALT LOVE THE LORD THY GOD WITH ALL THY HEART, AND WITH ALL THY SOUL, AND WITH ALL THY MIND. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR AS THYSELF.”(Matthew 22:37-39).It’s like a boomerang, it will come back to you.I think if we are more mindful of this spiritual and scriptural truth, that it will help us in our daily encounters, and it will help us to be more careful and prayerful in the things we say and do.If we all would try and be more like Jesus we could have a little bit of Heaven right now in our hearts and lives. Wow, what a change that would make!!! Why wait until you get to heaven, when you can have a little bit of Heaven right now?

If you want to go to Heaven someday, sincerely pray this simple prayer:

Jesus, I want to know you and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things, and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Savior. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

WE HAVE A LOVING GOD

Posted on by

I am so glad that we have a loving God who is trying to love everyone into Heaven and not trying to frighten and send everyone into hell with a big strike of lightning. God loves us so much that he gave his only begotten Son to die for our sins, so that we could go to Heaven. Would you give your only son whom you dearly love to die so some evil person could live? God did this for you! I can’t even conceive of such love ,can you? Think about it. We need to pray for these poor souls and try and witness to them and reach out to them with Jesus’s love. They are so eaten up with hate, and anger, and have been taught to be this way from a small child. It was prophesied in the Bible that Ishmael, the father of the Arabs, whose father was Abraham, that he would be a wild man, and every mans hand would be against him, and his hand would be against every man. This was apparently passed down through the generations, and is certainly being fulfilled today. (Genesis 16:11,12). Remember, Jesus said, “the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.” (John 16:2b). Beloved we are entering into perilous times and we need to get, and stay close to the Lord, and become strengthened by His Word. “THIS KNOW also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blashemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more that lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.”(II Timothy 3:1-7).There shall come a great falling away.  “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that when I was yet with you, I told you these things?”(II Thessalonians 2:3-5).” But they that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits.”(Daniel 11:32). “LET NOT your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.”(John 14:1). “for all these things must come to pass.”(Matthew 24:6). “Love your enemies,bless them that curse you ,do good to them that hate you,and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your father which is in Heaven:”(Matthew 5:44,45 ). May we always be known for our love for Jesus, and the lost. We are supposed to love the sinner and hate the sin, Amen? If you have a hard time loving someone, ask Jesus to help you see them through his eyes.”for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.” (I Samuel 16:17b). “Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgement.” (John 7:24 ). “But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest “ (Matthew 9:36-38).”Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” (1 John 4:7,8). The Loving way is the best way. Ask Jesus to fill you with his love. Are you a person after God’s own heart ?

Say this prayer if you want to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

 

 

THE STRAY SHEEP ( video & text)

http://youtu.be/iPwfgxXMZWI

Do you know the story about the shepherd who had a sheep which was continually straying away from the flock and the shepherd. One day the shepherd broke one of the sheep’s legs and carried the sheep and hand feed him until the sheep was well enough to walk again, and that sheep never left the shepherds side, and followed the shepherd wherever he went, and stayed ever so close to him. Jesus is the Good Shepherd. He said; “my sheep hear my voice, and I know them and they follow me, and he said the good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” CAREFULLY, and PRAYERFULLY read John chapter 10. We can’t be very good shepherds of God’s sheep if we don’t stay close to the Chief Shepherd Jesus Christ, the Master of our souls. Do you sometimes feel like that sheep?  “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit that we might be partakers of his holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterwards it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby,”( Hebrews 12: 1-11). Lord help us to follow you closely and not to go wondering away from you into places where the wolves can get us or get caught up in the thorny vines and brambles from the enemy. Do you follow the Good Shepherd closely, or do you follow from afar?

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

STAY FOCUSED

Posted on by

“Let thine eyes look straight on and thine eyelids straight before thee.” (Proverbs 4:25) Lord help us to stay focused on the most important  thing, which is loving you Jesus. “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” (Matthew 22:37-39). The enemy is always faithful to try and side track us. If we could only be so faithful in serving the Lord. The Bible says; “Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.”(Revelations 12:12) Every day is full of distractions and trials and tests. Thank God when we can pass some of these and make some spiritual progress. If you have been saved by accepting Jesus Christ into your heart, then you have already passed the greatest and most important test. Just remember Jesus will never leave us or forsake us. (Hebrews 13:5) He is never weary and he never sleeps. “A just man falleth seven times, and rises up again.” (Proverbs 24:16a). “Being confident of this very thing,that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” (Philippians 1:6). If you hear someone say “I just want to end it all” then tell them, If you’re going to throw your life away, why not give it for a worthy cause like serving Jesus Christ and helping others to know him. All the things of this life are soon too pass, and only what is done for Christ shall last. When Peter was looking at Jesus he could walk on the water, but when he took his eyes off of the Lord and started looking at the waves he began to sink, but when he cried out to Jesus, Jesus immediately stretched forth his hand and caught him. So keep your spiritual eyes and heart stayed on Jesus, and don’t look at the waves of this world, and you won’t sink but you will walk above all of that on the water. Amen? RIGHT ON !

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

BE THANKFUL, DON”T COMPLAIN

Posted on by

The best way to appreciate your job is to imagine yourself without it. Don’t count all of your blessings in dollars and cents, but count your spiritual blessings in all of the wonderful JEWELS you have learned from God’s Word. “The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.” ( Psalm 119:72 ). You could have been born to a family in India who are starving and worship cows and rats, and they pray to rats, and make temples for them, and they feed them even before they feed their own children. My God such darkness! “I had no shoes and complained until I met a man who had no feet.” God hates murmuring and complaining and unthankfulness almost more than any other sin, except rejecting Jesus Christ, his Son. God destroyed millions in the Sinai Desert because of murmuring. “Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.”( I Corinthians 10:10,11).Think of it, after seeing all these miracles happen in front of their eyes. The Jews still murmured and complained. God takes away blessings when we don’t appreciate them. One optimistic old woman said, “Yes, its pretty hard, I have to get along with only two teeth– one upper and one lower, but thank the Lord they both meet.” “Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks: For this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” (I Thessalonians 5:16-18). Don’t let the devil trick you, and fall into his trap of murmuring, and complaining. If we are always being thankful for everything that comes our way, we won’t have time to be complaining and murmuring. Count your blessings name them one by one. Count your blessings and see what God has done ! The Promised Land is what you make it ! Be thankful and make it a little bit of Heaven right now ! Why Wait !!

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

HUMILITY AND PRIDE (video & text)

Posted on by

http://youtu.be/ClihguKV5D8

” For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.” ( Galatians 6:3).” Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.”(Proverbs 16:18,19).”By humility and fear of the Lord are riches, and honor, and life.”(Proverbs 22:4). If you are having contentions with people it is because of Pride.” Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.” ( Proverbs 13:10). Why do we get offend? It is because of our Pride. Stop and think, we are suppose to be crucified with Christ. Our old selves are not suppose to be living any more. So why should we get so offend and defend a dead person? “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 by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” ( Galatians 2:20). “Great peace have they which love thy law:and nothing shall offend them.” ( Psalms 119:165). “Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.”( Romans 6:11). I don’t know of anywhere in the Bible where pride is considered a good thing. God did make our personality’s all different, and pride seems to be a temptation to us all. We need to channel our pride in the right direction, into glorifying the Lord and his awesome works. ” I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof and be glad. O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.”( Psalm 34:1-3).”Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.”( Matthew 5:5). Meekness is no weakness, it is strength under control. “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. “(Matthew 11:28-30). There is a certain rest, and peace to be found in the meekness of Jesus Christ when we come to him and learn of him. Funny thing about pride, if you think you don’t have a problem with it, you do, and if you think you are humble, you’re not. Pride is what brought down Lucifer. Pride is something that we all will have to battle for the rest of our lives, but remember, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”( Philippians 4:13). We should take some pride in our work and do all to the glory of God. “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.”(I Corinthians 10:31). If we will just follow Jesus, and learn his Word, and ask the Lord to fill us with the Holy Spirit and give us the Lord’s humility, he will, and meekness and true humility will just come naturally out of love.”Let nothing be done through strife or vain glory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but everyman also on the things of others. let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God. But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of man. And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself. and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:3-11).”He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good: and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”( Micah 6:8).

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

YOU SAY YOU LOVE MY JESUS?

Posted on by

You say you love my Jesus,but do you really know him? He’s a Shepherd weeping bitterly, yes he is weeping for his children, is the servant above his Master, is my Jesus real in you? He was a man of sorrows why aren’t you weeping too ? Do you seek his face redeemed by grace, secluded in your blessing? As we seek our own, lost children roam and Jesus goes on weeping. “ But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truely is plenteous, but the labourers are few.Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” (Matthew 9:36,-38.).Will you hear the Lords call,and answer his prayer? “ Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the Lord for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off. “(Isaiah 55:6-13).  “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!“(Isaiah 52:7).Won’t you seek him today, won’t you let him show you the way. His love and compassions fail not, his promises are true. Reach out by faith and receive the gift of your calling and anointing. “Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.” (John 4:35).

 

Say this prayer if you want to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I  believed you died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

Spiritual Battles

Posted on by

Jesus help us to be thankful for all the miracles you have done for us, and that you do every day behind the scenes that we don’t even realize.

You have Angels watching over you and even fighting spiritual battles for you.  We need to give them some help and cooperation, and make their job a little easier. The Bible says;  “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” (1 Peter 5:8). So pray first before you even get out of bed and put your spiritual Armour on, because today you are going into battle whether you like it or not and whether you’re ready or not. When King David went up to fight against the giant Goliath. They tried to put the heavy Armour of man on him, but it didn’t even fit right, so David put God’s Armour of faith on and won the victory and the battle: “Wherefore take unto you the whole Armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;” (Ephesians 6: 13- 18). You can’t win with a defensive warfare. Go on the attack with the Word of God and fight the Devil and his demons. That’s how Jesus fought the devil. “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. “(Hebrews 4:12). So don’t listen to the devil. Give him no place. He always tries to get you discouraged and tries to get you to throw in the towel and will tell you” You aren’t good enough, and you can’t do it”. But Gods word says “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” (Philippians 4:13). Lord give us the grace, and wisdom to accept the things we can not change and the courage, and strength to change the things we can change. The reason the Lord allows trials, tests, and troubles to come your way, is to make you stronger spiritually, and to help you to learn to trust in him for your help and strength, and so you can help others. No victory without a battle. No testimony without a test. No triumph without a trial. “we must through much tribulation enter the Kingdom of God.” ( Acts 14:22b). ” Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you.” (1 Peter 4:12). “but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.” (Daniel 11:32b-35). “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.” (1 Corinthians 10:13). “When you join the LORD’S ARMY, there must have been many things you didn’t realize. When you are faced with your first battle, you acted so darn surprised. So when you are faced with battles don’t get blue. After all, fighting battles are what soldiers are suppose to do. You know the Lord wants to make a spiritual fighter out of you, not a bed of roses but a war is what he promised you.”

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.
