"To Reach Them, Teach Them and Release Them to GOD's PURPOSE."
All anyone desires in their life is peace. People will seek for peace in many different forms that will lull them into a false sense of peace. The enemy’s peace is defined in this acronym.
P – pressure
E – escape
A – availability
C – curiosity
E – emptiness
GOD’s peace is nothing like that. When we turn to GOD for peace this is what we get. Freedom of the mind, soul and spirit. Freedom from distraction,…

Actually it’s not wrong to drink; what’s wrong is getting drunk and becoming a glutton towards addiction. People have problems with limits; it appears that people don’t know when to say no or enough. Most people may not get drunk from one glass of alcoholic drink and some do (I'm one). When a person is drunk their ability to make decisions are off. More times than not they make the wrong decisions and do foolish things. Once the addiction for alcohol takes over; the heart becomes enslaved…

Human beings need to know that they are loved and wanted. They need encouragement rather than constant rebuke. When people don’t receive praise or positive acknowledgment and self worth at home; they will begin to look for it outside of the home. Remember that we are created in the image of GOD. GOD desires that we praise HIM and because we are created in HIS image we look for praise from those who love us; namely our family. We are to build each other up with helpful words that will…

There is a saying that “music soothes the savage beast.” Well it all depends on the type of music we are listening to. In some countries there is music dedicated with the precise purpose of creating a frenzy among the dancers which is used to call forth demonic spirits to take over their bodies. Some music is created to soothe as is in 1 Samuel 16:16, 23. Some music is created to celebrate as in Luke 15:25. Music will either energize us or relax us. There was a time that when music…

What I have to share may not be accepted very well. All I can write is that you read the scriptures offered; pray about what you have read in the scriptures. Ask GOD to give you complete understanding and live a victorious life.
The very first scripture I want to share is Mark 3:28 which is written in the NKJV “Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men…

No! It still surprises me that even the children of GOD; don’t understand just how much GOD loves us. Though we love GOD we can never out love GOD. The love that GOD has for people; notice I wrote people not HIS children or those who has not accepted HIS SON. GOD loves people and GOD desires that all people will return to HIM. Unfortunately HE and we know that will never happen. When JESUS walked on the earth there were many people who heard HIM…

Good question; but before I get into the depth of confusion. Let’s understand that confusion is in two parts. The demonic spirit of confusion: when thoughts are unclear, indistinct, bemuddled, the failure to distinguish between reality and fantasy, everything mentally is all jumbled up. This is an everyday occurrence. We call these people mentally ill due to dual personalities; schizophrenia and such.
Then there is the person who has for the most part not gotten a clear…

The answer is a big whopping YES! Most of GOD’s children continue to feel guilty for various reasons. Some that I am familiar with are the following.

Well, let’s look at the beginning of sin. Genesis 3:1-6, 11-13; take notice of a few things.
1. The moment the serpent began to speak; Eve should have known something was wrong instead of standing there conversation with it.
2. GOD never told Adam that he or his wife could not touch the fruit of the tree.
3. Adam and Eve were already like GOD because they were created in HIS image. GOD spoke to them daily so anything they…

Heaven is a Kingdom and the throne of GOD. In heaven are many mansions. It holds the purses of our treasure where we may obtain what we need here on earth. A throne with someone seated; there are twenty-four elders seated around the throne. In the front of the throne are seven torches which are the seven spirits of GOD. In front of the throne is a shiny sea of glass. In the center and around the throne are four living beings. All they…

Before we can understand death; we must understand life. GOD’s original purpose was that we live forever but with Adams sin we were sentenced to death. GOD is a Spirit and we were created in HIS image; meaning that we are spirit clothed in flesh. Our flesh is made from the dirt/dust of the ground; our spirit is inside and GOD breathes life in our nostrils so that we have become a living soul which has the ability to…

Understand that anger in and of itself is not sinful. It’s how we act on the emotion of anger that maybe sinful. When we are treated unjustly sometimes it’s best that we step away to cool off and think about what
happened. Do not allow yourself to remain angry as you retire to your bed for the day. This will cause much harm to your spirit and while you are asleep; the thought of your anger and the unjustness that you have…

The first requirement is to know HIM as our SAVIOR. Once we have accepted GOD’s only begotten SON, JESUS we will be able to read the instructions given to us in our Bible. The Holy Spirit will open up our understanding and when we attend a Word teaching ministry we will hear how we are to apply GOD’s Word to our lives in our daily walk. We will be encouraged to obey GOD’s will. Also attending Bible study gives us the opportunity to ask…

prayer. They’ve not…

“Born Again” is a phrase that was first used by JESUS
HIMSELF in John 3:3. JESUS told Nicodemus the Pharisee that he must be born
again. This is just as confusing today as it was when JESUS told it to
Nicodemus, but JESUS took the time to explain this new birth experience to
Nicodemus. Just as we are all born into a physical family we must also be born
into a spiritual family, GOD’s family of believers. We learn…

The answer to this question is “Yes”!
Let’s look at 5 basic principles of depression. Depression is a demonic spirit and it attacks the individual. Not everyone has a spirit of depression; some may experience depression as a temporary emotion which is brought on by negative news and then in about 3 days or so you begin to come out of it. However, in…

The simple reason why we fail is that naturally in our
flesh we are bent towards sin. Apostle Paul had this struggle and made it clear
that we are in a struggle between our flesh and our born again spirit within
us. Are we to be discouraged because this struggle is ever present with us? No!
This is exactly what satan would like to see us do; quit, give up hope; believe
that it’s not worth the effort or that it…

Revelation 3:20
When I was a wee child; I lived with my Great-Grandmother. In her bedroom she had a picture of a person that modeled for the role of JESUS knocking on a door. Now I never paid any attention to anything in the picture with the exception of the model; who I thought at that time was actually JESUS. A few years ago I was in a Bible study and that picture was described; it came to my attention that the door did not have a doorknob on the outside of the door. I…

GOD keeps us from falling
Jude 24-25
Unlike the famous television commercial; “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!” GOD’s children do not fall on or into a realm of unprotection. We are always in the Ark of safety because we belong to GOD. We are not perfect yet we strive for perfection; because of this there will be times when we will make a mistake but this does not mean that we have our hearts bent towards sin. Sometimes we will react to sin…

1 John 1:7-10
There is not one sin known or unknown to man that we cannot come to GOD and ask HIM to forgive us in JESUS name. GOD is compassionate; faithful; forgiving; merciful and HIS abundant grace delivers; heals; saves us from our mistakes. We don’t have to be ashamed or guilty for making a mistake; allowing our flesh to take over or straight out rebellion. The very instant that we are aware of a sin that we committed all we need to do is tell GOD what we did and ask…
