Shortcut Short-circuits!
Job 31:1 “I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust at a young woman. 2 For what has God above chosen for us? What is our inheritance from the Almighty on high?”
Most of the time if we will be true to self, we will admit that when God wants to save us from disaster, we often think He just wants to punish us.
Spirit Controlled!
Gal.5: 22 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
You would notice that the qualities listed in today’s Scripture reference, require a commitment to delay gratification. Notice also that in the original,
By His Hands
Matt.9:18 “As Jesus was saying this, the leader of a synagogue came and knelt before him. “My daughter has just died,” he said, “but you can bring her back to life again if you just come and lay your hand on her.”
Laying on of hands brings Healing. Mark 7:32 “A deaf man with a speech impediment was brought to him, and the people begged Jesus to lay his hands on the man to heal him.” Read the rest of this entry
Affairs of The Heart
New!
2 Cor.5:17 “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” [with emphasis].
This is one of my favourite passages of Scripture. In fact, the first book I wrote, New Creation Reality, was based on this passage of Scripture.
Time & Trouble
Do You Believe?
Mark 16:17 “These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages. 18 They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them…”
“These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe…” [with emphasis]. The Bible does not say that the miraculous signs will accompany those that are in doubt or those that are afraid. You have to hinge your confidence on Jesus and in the Word of God. Read the rest of this entry
The First SELF
Eph.2:5 “That even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!)” [with emphasis]
The first “self” that you and I need to take to The Cross so that the power of resurrection can flow through us, is Self-righteousness. One reason we do not experience the fullness of Christ is that we think we are not so bad. Read the rest of this entry
Solid Rock
Num.22:17 “I will pay you very well and do whatever you tell me. Just come and curse these people for me!” 18 But Balaam responded to Balak’s messengers, “Even if Balak were to give me his palace filled with silver and gold, I would be powerless to do anything…” [with emphasis]
I declare over you today that in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, even if your enemy were to give their life’s worth to priests, or ritualists, or to wizards to curse you, they will be powerless to do anything against you. Read the rest of this entry
Backed Up
Jer.1:18-19 (MSG) “Stand at attention… I’m making you as impregnable as a castle, Immovable as a steel post, solid as a concrete block wall. You’re a one-man defense system… They’ll fight you, but they won’t even scratch you. I’ll back you up every inch of the way.” God’s Decree.”
God is going to crush every resistance of and every affliction from the enemy in your life, in Jesus Name. When you begin to become, expect resistance – just expect it. Jesus says, “I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” Read the rest of this entry
