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

The Power In The Name

"There is none like God...who rides through Heaven to your help, through the skies in His majesty" - Deuteronomy 33:26  Many of us expect an answer when we pray - immediately. We try to control God  thinking we know best, when God does. But if the Holy Spirit lives in us, patience live in us too, because it is of the Spirit (Gal  5:22 ). We have everything we ever need or ever will need - the only thing you have to do is activate it. The power in the name of Jesus, as soon as you activate it, is ready and available to use. Anyone can say Jesus, but they can't use its power because it's either:  A) not given to them or  B) they don't believe.  What can I do to activate the power?  To activate this power, you need faith and full relying on God. No matter what, even in temptation. You see, a Christian's life is one with more temptation. But that's good - because:  A) We overcome them all!  B) It's when we show and display J...

The Godly Godliness

1 Timothy 4:7 -  7  Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales;  rather, train yourself to be godly.  The godliness Paul is talking about here means piety to God, a revered holiness. What do I mean? Well, on what we do we should have a holiness for him. Our clothing, people should be able to say 'this is a real Christian'. Our behaviour should also have a holiness. A fear of God. As the Bible says, the fear of God gives life. This holiness is about the things you do, how you respond to God and to the things of God. Our character influences the way we live and what we do-it's the way people determine who you are, for it is always the inner man the speaks out. They are books and magazines you shouldn't read, things you shouldn't watch and games you shouldn't play. The excuse 'it's Christian' won't work this time! Watch with your children - make sure you are sure of what they watch. Never forget who you are in Christ: His own, o...

Humble Is Best!

Direct my footsteps according to your Word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133  |  NIV   We need to let God's Word rule our lives, directing our footsteps on our journey through life. God is our Director leading us-even of the path LOOKS right, it doesn't mean it IS right. God knows best so we shouldn't be no-it-alls. Humble your self!
