Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice that your names are written in HEAVEN" -Luke 10:19-20
Christians are no longer Christlike!
Yes, it's true! Christians are no longer following Jesus Christ! Preferring to "do their own thing," rather than follow and obey Jesus's teaching, Christians are constantly falling into lives of sin, and denying the Lordship of Jesus by their actions! As a result, churches are lukewarm, the Power of the Gospel is being replaced by programs to draw people in, and God the Father is displeased. He is quoted as having said, "I wish you were cold or hot; but since you are lukewarm, I will spue you out of My mouth."
CONTROL YOUR THOUGHTLIFE 2COR 10:5
"Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God,and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ: So do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.....
Study 1st Corinthians Chapter 13...
JESUS told us to love one another; He also told us to love our enemies, and pray for those who despitefully use us.
The battle for our souls starts in our thought-life; obedience to ungodly thoughts can affect our relationship to our Savior, and keep us from walking in love with one another. 1Cor chapter 13 tells of the importance of love in our lives;
Learn it!
1John 4:7-8 tells how important it is for a Christian to have LOVE: "Beloved let us love one another;for Love is of GOD and every one that loves is born of GOD and knows GOD; He that does not love, does not know GOD for GOD is Love."
If we judge ourselves, GOD will not have to judge us.
Think about it!Satan goes about like a roaring lion, seeking who he can destroy!
Most lions are stealthy and quiet..but old toothless lions roar to scare small prey like rabbits, freezing them in place. Then they pounce and eat! DON'T BE A RABBIT! KNOW GOD'S WORD AND USE IT AGAINST SATAN - ASK FOR GOD'S HELP! Remember Satan has no power over you - You are JESUS's! He bought you with His Blood when He was crucified.
You are bought with a price, and you are not your own, you are blessed, honored by GOD, under Grace, and given authority (Luke 10:19-20). So rejoice! Your name is written in HEAVEN!
Luke 10:19-20 Says Jesus gave His diciples authority!
We have power over the power of the enemy!
We don't have to be defeated - Jesus is our General, He has already defeated Satan,& it is just up to us to fight a few battles, standing against the enemy in FAITH.
Pray for understanding as you study Gods Word!
Ephesians 6 tells us we are not wrestling with flesh and blood (people are not your problem, Satan is) but against principalities, powers and rulers of darkness in high places.
Everywhere you look, someone needs you...
So help out wherever you can! When you love someone else, you defeat the work of Satan. You are Jesus's hands and feet - walk where HE needs you, and do what HE tells you.
He has something for everyone to do - don't make excuses! Get out there and LOVE!Are you a helper, or are you just in the way?
Don't get in the way of those who are serving God!
Help by praying for them, offering suggestions, working with them, providing food, and things of that nature!
