Time of Testing

Then Jesus returned from the Jordan, full of the Holy Spirit, and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness for 40 days to be tempted by the Devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they were over, He was hungry. The Devil said to Him, “If  You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread – Luke 4:1-3).

Prior to Jesus’ temptation, He was baptized by John, and as He was being baptized, the Holy Ghost (Spirit) descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon Him. He was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted. Sometimes we think or feel that if the Holy Spirit leads us, it will always be “beside the still waters”, but that is not necessarily true, that’s our thoughts and not God’s. Read More

Pray the Word

And He spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not faint (lose heart) – Luke 18:1

Oh, God how great is Your name! You’re mighty and strong, the God over all spirits and flesh. The God that was and is and always will be.  I come before You asking for Your grace to be upon our lives. Grace us with Your strength so that we will through Your Son conquer the adversary in every area of our life. Take the blinders off our eyes that we may see in the spirit realm, take the deafness out of our ears so we can hear Your voice and follow Your instructions.

Light of the World

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven -Matthew 5:14-16

Can you hide a city that is sitting on top of a hill? Its light at night can be seen for miles. If we live for Christ we will glow like lights, showing others what Christ is like. His fruits should be manifesting through us daily. Loving everyone, and not condoning their sins. No matter what is going on in your life, if Christ is living within your being, you will have the joy of the Lord no matter what is going on. Read More
