Delivered from Affliction, Every Time!


“Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.”
2 Corinthians 12:9 NLT

The power of Christ strengthens us and sustains our Spirit, beaming powerfully especially in our weakness. There is nothing in this world we need apart from God - and His grace. His grace is why he has mercy and why there is forgiveness. But we should not purposely put God to the test! It is wrong! There are many things that are wrong, that even people who call themselves Christians disobey. For example, following the world and acting like it. We all want to be noticed, to be stars - to be on top of the web. But the thing is, we don't belong to the world, so how can we suddenly conform to be one with it? Satan is the God of this world - so if you want to have worldly success, you need to be of the world. We are the lights, and because we are lights in the darkness there is going to be lots of afflictions, but, according to Scripture the Lord shall deliver us! 
“The righteous person faces many troubles, but the Lord comes to the rescue each time.”
Psalms 34:19 NLT

Whenever you face trouble, don't mourn! Confess the Word and put to work the Sword of the Spirit - His Word - and take up the situation in effective and diligent prayer. Doing this, you'll be on your way to overcoming the enemy!

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!

Key = Blue = Scripture  Red = Answers to questions  Green = Verses to read in your spare time. Black = Normal post Bold = Question  "Call unto Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." - Jeremiah 33:3.  Many people either don't believe in God, or become atheists, partly because of this question: Why doesn't God answer some of my prayers?  Answer: This is because of your heart. Before you ask this question you must ask yourself, am I pure? Have I sinned by mistake and need forgiveness? Or are my thoughts starting to make my light darken? Ask yourself these questions and their surely will be an answer.  But why must I ask myself these questions?  " So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart" - 2 Timothy 2:22    If we are not thinking good thoughts or have sinned by mistake or not, we have sta...

Christ Died For Me! Romans 5:8

"But God shows His love for us on that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" - Romans 5:8 Sin. God. Not friends. God tells us to love one another, but we only have one enemy. Satan. The person who wants to wipe out mankind forever. One of his main servants is Sin. Something that cannot get is close to God. But how does he bait us in? How? Worldly pleasures. Money, Fame, Huge businesses, Children and everything you could ever wish for. Satan shall give you these things but they shall not last long. Only things from Jesus last eternal, if we follow Him. SEE Joel 2:32 Jesus paid a big price to make us clean and pure. He died. It was only a heavenly body that could rescue us. Why not the Angels? You may ask. You see, they needed to be in the form of a human, which could not be possible before Jesus died. So God sent his Son. He gave up his pride and joy. His most beloved son. SEE John 3:16. We do not have to pay that huge debt. We would have to DIE if Jesus had not d...
