Keep Looking to Jesus!
In the times of storm, when our faith is tested, God always tells us to look unto Him.
A Good King
With the coming of a new King comes a new reign and the advent of a new Kingdom. Jesus Christ has rulership over the whole earth whether we like it or not. When we submit to His rule (instead of kicking against the goads – see Acts chapter 9) everything changes!
A Warning From the Life of Lot
The word of God tells us, that though men may not perceive it is the voice of God speaking to them, through a dream God opens the ears of men to seal their instruction.
Keep Yourself From Mixture
When the Apostle Paul wrote or preached, by the Spirit of grace, he allowed no room for mixture. This meant he was not just mindful of the words he spoke or tone of voice that he used, but that the heart and intent behind his message was of the Lord. Actions and attitudes go together as one.
The Power of Repentance — Part Two
Our greatest need, is for each one of us to know that we are fully loved and fully accepted in Christ Jesus.
Josiah — A King Like No Other
Just like Josiah, every leader and every believer in Christ has a purpose for their lives given by God. Like Josiah, if we continue to seek and obey the Lord, He will ensure His good purposes are fulfilled in and through our lives.
False Prophecy in the Church
The worship of Baal and Asherah in the Old Testament of the Bible was characterized by its false prophets. There were 450 prophets of Baal, and 400 prophets of Asherah who sat to eat at Queen Jezebel’s table. Asherah in the Bible was a sexual goddess known by various different names depending on the region. She was often worshipped alongside Baal by many different people groups – including later, by the people of Israel. Many, unknowingly, are still worshipping these false deities today. Both are characterized by their love of war.
Overcoming the Spirit of Baal
The spirit of Baal is only one of the many manifestations of witchcraft. While witchcraft is openly acknowledged in many third world countries, in the Western world it goes largely undiagnosed and therefore untreated, especially in the modern day Church.
