Bible Verse of The Day – 5-27-18 – Are You Starving?

Please click to watch the video.Greetings in the name of Jesus! 

Are you starving? 

That’s the title of our newest video. We hope you’ll watch it! 

Many of us don’t realize that we’re starving. We know we’re hungry, but we fail to recognize that we are under-nourished. And the reason that we’re undernourished is that we aren’t getting properly fed. 

Please click to watch the video now. 

We have been there before. We wanted badly to know more of God, but we were malnourished. We had to make a choice. 

That choice wasn’t easy, but God gave us what we needed in order to pursue Him with our whole hearts. 

Please click to watch the video now. 

What about you? Are you being properly fed and nurtured? Are you struggling to grow your relationship with God and your understanding of His word? 

Please click to watch the video now. 

We hope you enjoy the video and it helps strengthen your walk with God. 

Be blessed in all you do. 

Sincerely,

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-23-13

Matthew 18:18 (NKJV) “Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

As believers… followers of Christ, we have been given spiritual authority here on earth.

We have the ability to bind (to arrest) and the ability to loose (to set free). This is not a small matter or something to be taken lightly.

Sadly, the vast majority of the church, Christ’s body, knows little or nothing about this. Many people have been convinced that spiritual gifts no longer exist, therefore anything related to deliverance from demonic spirits or anything remotely related to the moving of the Holy Spirit in our lives is non-existent.

But Jesus told us that what we loose on earth will be loosed in heaven (meaning, in the spiritual realm) and what we bind on earth will be bound in heaven. And we need to take this seriously!

So as we go through each day, if we let God sharpen our discernment, He will show us where demonic influences are in operation, and we will be able to bind those spirits and loose God’s freedom, His Joy, His peace, etc.

Church, we seriously need to get this. In the times we’re living in, it is not optional. It’s a necessity!

So ask God to open your eyes to these things and give you razor-sharp discernment to know when to bind and when to loose something or someone. He is faithful to give us what we need.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-24-12

(Mat 10:36 NKJV)  “and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’

Are we going through family turmoil in our homes, within our church family, or in our work place, etc.? Well, don’t let it take you by surprise. God’s Word shows us that we don’t have to look very far to find enemies; they can be right in our own backyard.

It’s very hard when we have family members, close friends or co-workers that cause trouble for us, simply because they don’t agree with who we have chosen to be in Christ or how we choose to handle things.

It’s possible they are just plain jealous because good things are happening in our lives and they can’t handle it. But we can’t let them stop us from doing what is right and being all that Christ calls us to be.

We have to be alert, stand our ground, be who God has called us to be, and keep moving forward with love!!

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-3-12

(John 4:24 NKJV)  “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

God is Spirit. He is not flesh and bone. He does not operate under fleshly principles and He is not limited to doing things in a way that our minds can comprehend or make sense of.

If we keep this in mind and truly grasp the fact that He is not bound by or limited by our understanding, we will also begin to realize that our relationship with Him is not based on intellect.

There is a large part of the bride of Christ that is so caught up in studying and trying to fully comprehend His word and His ways, that they miss God when it comes to spiritual things.

We are definitely told to study the scripture and know what it says, but we are not to limit our understanding of God or our relationship with God to what we can comprehend or understand.

God is way too big for us to ever fully understand, and it is here that we are to rely on faith and take Him at His word, even if we don’t always fully understand it.

Let God open your spiritual eyes and see Him in His truth, and don’t fret if you can’t always understand everything with your natural mind.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-10-12

(1 John 4:1 NKJV)  Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

A few days ago we did a short teaching about religious spirits. We talked about how even demonic spirits can speak words of truth. Over the years we have personally witnessed religious spirits at work in many different situations.

We have seen them tear churches apart from within and lead godly people to do the very things that they spoken out against. And yet these very people who had taught against these demonic powers became victims of them.

Religious spirits hide themselves well, right in plain sight. They will look, sound and act like the spirit of God in so many ways and then they will slowly lead a person on to a path of destruction. And most times, that person won’t know it until it’s too late and they have made choices that can destroy their life and the lives of others.

While this is a subject that is too in depth to cover thoroughly in a short teaching such as this, let us tell you some of the things to be aware of when it comes to discerning some religious spirits.

A spirit of religion will run a path that’s very close to the path of God’s spirit. But it will vary just enough to eventually lead to destruction. Test what you hear and read by comparing it to the Word of God. Does it line up or does it stray, even just a little bit?

Religious spirits will display pride, especially in their accomplishments. They will become arrogant in their thinking. They will boast in their associations with people of social status. Religious spirits will think they are invincible and indestructible… that nobody can stop them.

Let God give you discernment when it comes to the people around you and even those who you receive teaching from. TEST THE SPIRITS! God forewarned us so we would not fall victim to these sly spirits.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-7-12

(Acts 16:16-18 NKJV)  Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling. {17} This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” {18} And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And he came out that very hour.

Have you ever heard of a religious spirit? Whether you have or not, please pay close attention to these words.

Religious spirits come to us to deceive us. They look, sound and act like the real thing (the Holy Spirit), but they are not of God. They will speak words that are true in order to convince us that they are from God, but they are evil in their purpose.

In the scriptures above, this woman was inhabited by a religious spirit… a demon. This demon spoke words that were true. He proclaimed that the words Paul was speaking were true and that Paul taught the way to salvation.

Was this true? Absolutely. But why did it annoy Paul to the point where he cast it out of the girl? Because he discerned that this was not the spirit of God, but a spirit of divination and he knew that it had to leave if he told it to do so.

Many of us come into contact with religious spirits on a regular basis but never realize it. They speak to us from various sources. Many of them are even in the church!

This is not meant to freak anyone out or make you paranoid, but it’s high time for the body of Christ to get razor-sharp discernment and understand the realities of the spiritual world.

Much of what we see each day is the result of something spiritual, whether it’s God’s spirit or a demonic spirit. It’s up to us to distinguish between the two.

If a religious spirit was to come before us right now, would we be able to discern it correctly? Just some food for thought!

We wish each and every one of you a very happy resurrection day!

Your Daily Bible Verse – 2-25-12

(Titus 3:9 KJV)  But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

When we find ourselves getting caught up in things that we know are not going to be fruitful, we need to turn away, change the subject or just simply let people know we’d rather not comment or participate. It takes a lot of strength and discipline to do this.

Some of the things we get caught up in are just not healthy conversation and are simply a waste of time. This is when we need God’s discernment; He will show us and help us to avoid certain conversations or people that like to draw others in by statements they make, just to get people going.

Your Daily Bible Verse – 2-24-12

(Prov 4:7 NKJV)  Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.

God seems to be making a push lately, encouraging us to drink in His wisdom and His understanding!

It can never be emphasized enough as to how important it is for us to know God and His word.

In addition to learning what His word says about life and how we should live, we also need to learn to discern His spirit and His voice.

Some people may confuse memorizing scripture with knowing His word, but there is a vast difference. Memorizing scripture is commendable, but when it comes to knowing His word, we also need to know how to apply it to our everyday lives and the situations that we encounter.

Then and only then will we begin to truly understand what He’s telling us through His word.

Your Daily Bible Verse – 2-22-12

(Hosea 4:6 NKJV)  My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…

Ignorance is bliss. Isn’t that what the world will tell us?

This is a lie straight from hell and will cause people to die in their ignorance.

Spiritual ignorance is very dangerous. Not understanding the things that God wants us to know and understand can destroy our destiny and lead to the destruction of our very soul.

I know this may sound dismal, but there is good news! God has given us everything we need to prevent us from being spiritually ignorant.

He has given us His word and He has given us His spirit to guide us and give us direction.

His word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. We are not left in darkness! We need to dig into His word and ABSORB it into our beings. If we will do this, we will never be ignorant to the schemes of the enemy.

Be wise and be vigilant!
