Hold onto Faith










Verse: "We don't fight against the people on this earth, but against the powers, principalities and against the rulers of darkness in the spiritual realm" - Ephesians 6:12

Message:
Many people blame each other for tragedies that have happened to them or their relatives. But we have only one adversary: Satan and his agents. Why? Let scripture answer that:
"And the god of this world (Satan) has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God." - 2 Corinthians 4:4

But we are not of the world, but are in it to save those who are lost:
" The world would love you if you belonged to it; but you don’t—for I chose you to come out of the world, and so it hates you." - John 15:19

Most people have different excuses for why we should be of the world instead of Jesus. Here are a few with biblical answers:
1. I get laughed at. And my friend left me.
Jesus NEVER said that people of the world would like you! Remember Satan owns the world (2  Corinthians 4:4) and Satan opposes God. So the people of the world (a.k.a the unbelievers) will to! But there will be Christians that you can to and discuss the faith with.

Excuse 2a: It's hard. There are too many obstacles

Jesus NEVER said that there wouldn't be temptations. He said they will come, but we will overcome!

Excuse 2b: But sometimes it doesn't look like there's a way out of my temptation.

When things do look like that, know all the more to keep hold onto your faith. Why? Because faith is one of the most powerful weapon against Satan, who send temptation. [To send your question, DM me (for Instagram, Twitter) or send an email (for Google+ or Facebook.) ]
Our faith can always get stronger. Jesus said so:
"Because of your little faith,”Jesus told them. “For if you had faith even as small as a tiny mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move!’ and it would go far away. Nothing would be impossible." - Matthew 17:20 TLB
 We should:

PRAY - Prayer can be both commanding and askful - ask with God's will in mind
READ THE BIBLE WITH GOD's GUIDANCE - the ordinary letters in the bible, cannot save you. The Holy Spirit quickens and gives you understanding of the word - just ask
FIND A LIVING CHURCH

Prayer/Confession: I am an overcomer. I can do all things through Him that dwells and lives in me! No temptation is too hard for God - who lives in me. My God lives and I am born of the incorruptible seed which is the  word of God

Revere Christ as Lord!

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." - 1 Peter 3:15. Whenever we are being trialled or tested for our faith, we should never deny it. Take the opportunity to tell them about God. Preach to them and give them the chance to hear about God. It may work, it may not. But all you know is, you accomplished your part of the mission. You've preached to them. Now it's there decision to come to Christ. Notice the Bible says do it with GENTLENESS. We don't use violence to try and preach the Gospel. We don't force people to believe in our reality. We use one of the fruit of the spirit (See Galatians 5:22 for a full list) Now you may wonder why Peter says 'with respect' when God says: "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:" - Acts 10:34.
“Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭100:3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ http://bible.com/114/psa.100.3.nkjv

Most Powerful

8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. (‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ KJV) In this verse, David is actually having a revelation about Jesus from the Holy Ghost. Let me explain. You see- as Christians, Jesus is the one who is before us. The One we follow. He is at our right hand and protects us. And because of Him, we are not moved. The Lord is you Leader, Provider and Guide. Without him, your steps would be without guide and you would have no knowledge of the path you are taking. You would be vulnerable to Satan and he will be able to destroy you. But-thank God- he can't destroy us. Christ lives in us, the most powerful Thing ever!
