Oh Weak Christian
There are times in all our lives that we struggle with believing God in the face of the lies of the enemy. This blog is an effort to help all those who desire to overcome what they are facing, do just that. Thank you for visiting my blog.
Christ Doesn’t Come Easy
Being crucified with Christ and becoming more like Him is not easy. Us becoming more like Christ requires us to be stripped of our flesh, stripped of all that we became in this world outside of Him. It takes abandoning what is comfortable and safe to us and doing some things that seem to go against every fiber of our being of what not to do, to do the very things Jesus is leading us to do. John said, "He must increase, but I must decrease (John 3:30 KJV). This is just a part
The Greatest Gift
The Holiday season is once again upon us and we see everyone scurrying about gathering presents, food, and all the things they have in their hearts to do for their families during this time. Many families use this time of year to look for ways to give to others so that they too can enjoy the Christmas season. For others, this is a time to extend forgiveness that they may have withheld from others throughout the year. But, for some families Christmas is a stressful time for ma
Something New
The topic of relationships and being in love is one of the most sought after topics of all time. Everyone wants to love and be loved, because it is the very fabric of our creation. No matter our experiences or how much we lie to ourselves and others, we all long to love and be loved because it was from love we were created (1 John 4:8 & Genesis 1:27). Sadly we have been led down wrong paths and taught wrong theologies and beliefs about love and we as a Christian community hav
Love Takes Time
It’s a tale as old as time and a song as old as rhyme that only fools rush in. We’ve read about so many stories where Kings and mighty men of God lost their throne, position, and/or purpose due to being lured away by a woman with a seductive spirit. Sin is always sweet at the beginning, if feeding our flesh is what we are geared to do, but it will cost us every time. Being lured away by someone that was not intended for us, is not always as easy to see coming as one would thi
Love Unleashed
Divorce was always more of a worldly statistic, but now has become the norm in the church as well. We have let the world change us, instead of being salt and light to the world. We date whomever we want and call it God, we marry whomever we want and call it God and then when it ends in divorce or a broken heart, we wonder where God was and why He let it all happen. It's amazing what we tell ourselves is God, without ever even asking Him and welcoming His will and truly waitin
The Kingdom of Heaven is Here
The Kingdom of Heaven is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit and can be established for each and every one of God's children here on earth (Romans 14:17). It is the promise to return us back to God's intended condition for His people before the fall of man. For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit, (Romans 14:17 NIV). God sent His son, Jesus to atone for our sin, so tha
The Fallout of Good Intentions
We can have the best of intentions and end up in a place we never dreamed we would be. We can genuinely want to do the right thing and mess it all up in the process. Have you ever had the best of intentions for a friendship, a relationship, or a career path, only to have it implode or end? The bible says it this way; there is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to the death and/or destruction of our life (Proverbs 14:12 NIV). The truth is we can have the b
Defense U
As children of God, we have the right to live in peace, that is God's gift to us (John 16:33). But, it is the enemy's mission to mess with anything God is trying to do in our life (Matt 13:25). God wants us to know that despite satans attempts to kill, steal, and destroy (John 10:10), we do not need to fear the enemy. As believers, we all have authority over the enemy through Jesus's finished work on the Cross (Matthew 18:18). Sometimes we are just not aware or awake to what'
Loves Process
Coming into the Kingdom of God is not an easy process, God designed it that way so that not just anyone could access it. Would you hand your keys over to just anyone? No, I think not or at least you shouldn't, and God isn't going to either. "He replied, "Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them." Matthew 13:11 NIV Being saved is being saved, but coming into the Kingdom of God is a whole other ballgame. Us c
Justified
After we have been justified by our faith in Jesus, the enemy is going to come after us and our destiny to prevent us from getting into our rightful position. Truth be known he always has been causing us harm; we have just not been awakened to the spiritual battle that is going on all around us. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour (1 Peter 5:8 ESV). The enemy knows he has lost our souls for all
