When a person decides, in their heart, to become a Christian, most don’t realize the battles they are stepping into. As Christians, Satan consistently and continually tempts us with things he knows will lure us, or attempt to, away from God. In this series, “He That Overcometh,” we learn about the blessings, character, and lifestyle of a true believer and servant of God.
When you read the word of God, you see that Satan is guaranteed defeat. Since he has already lost the war, all he can do is take as many as he can with him and that's exactly what he's set out to do. Satan is coming at us with everything that he has; every device, every trick, every temptation, every snare that he can set for us will be set. [ read more...]

Like God, we must love the people of the world without falling in love with the world itself! It's impossible to love God and the world at the same time; you're either with Him or against Him. When we choose to serve the world, God lifts His blessings from our lives! [ read more...]
Our eyes are the primary sense in our bodies, and as such God warned us about the lust that our eyes would bring to our flesh. Ironcially, Satan focuses his attacks on us through the lust of our eyes; once he has our eyes, he starts to work on us through the rest of our senses. Understanding how Satan tries to manipulate us is the first step to guarding our eyes from his temptations, and ultimately living a righteous life. [ read more...]

We have all heard the, what has now become clich?, scriptures that people quote for encouragement, but how many of us still truly believe that God can use us? Throughout the bible, time and time again, God has used ordinary people to do extraordinary things and I can guarantee that the majority of those who were used never thought they would reach the heights God brought them to.

You may ask, “What does the Bible say about money?” Well, strangely enough, the Bible has a lot to say about money and more importantly about our attitude toward money. Ask yourself why nearly 2/3 of the parables Jesus taught on were about money. Could it be that our attitude about money is a window to the heart and how we deal with money reveals our truest priorities? [ read more... ]
The most important commandment God gave us is to love Him with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength. In this series, “Getting To Know Him,” we are taught that the extent of our worship is determined by the amount of love we have for God. This is key, because through worship is how we get to know God on deeper levels. If we aren’t continually seeking a more fulfilling relationship with God, our worship will diminish, and we will ultimately forget about who God really is. [ read more... ]

If you follow what God’s word shows us through these lessons, your spiritual ‘shack’ will start feeling like a ‘stronghold’ and you will grasp on to the ground that holds you down… [ read more... ]
As human beings, it is a natural tendency to perceive the “eye for an eye” mentality as fair and just, but God disagrees.

God expects each of us to use our gifts and talents in the ministry!

No matter what kind of decision you are making there is always one factor to consider: the human will! If you truly set your heart to deciding to join in this fast then there is nothing that can detour you. Having a made up mind will be the vital key in determining the success or failure of anything you do in life. The Apostle James (James 1:8) tells us that any man who has a double mind is “unstable.” In other words if you do not make a decision to fast and determine that you are going to make it then you will have trouble during this entire 21 days.

“Dynamics of Preaching”?what is that? Some refer to it as “homiletics”?the science or “art of composing and preaching sermons.” This sounds too scientific, conjuring up pictures of a man wearing a lab coat, disheveled hair, and big glasses, in a room full of apparatus. He is searching for a solution to some mind-boggling problem. [ read more... ]

If we want to have the Influence Jesus had, then we must bind together and claim the lost in Jesus name! [ read more... ]
Surprisingly, one of the biggest topics talked about in the bible is money. Money is both a blessing and a curse to Christians, because it gives us the opportunity to put more faith in God and it also gives us the opportunity to take our faith away from God. In this series, “Breaking Out Of The Debt Trap,” our minds are challenged to think in terms of ‘God’s economics.’ Is there a greater way for God to test our faith in Him than asking for us to give back, or hold back, a little of what’s already his? [ read more... ]
