The Mind Is a Battlefield


It Is Written, Romans 12:2, do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
When the words, Battlefield of the mind, first came to light, it is doubtful very many people really knew what it referred to.
I am a simple person, so I will explain it as I understand. I am sure there are believers out there, that can relate to what I say.
Every person on earth has a mind. Each persons mind decides what the person does. Each person also has a soul, and is a spirit. In human beings, there is almost always conflict between mind, soul, and spirit.
I believe the battle is greater among many believers. Fortunately we have been given the Holy Spirit to help us.
Here is a typical for instance. Our spirits love God above everything, and believe every Word of God. After a time, the soul starts to believe. So far so good.
The mind however flip-flops in belief, and levels of belief. satan tries to plant doubt in the mind, in order to keep us from God. By prayer and the Holy Spirit, we can win the battle over the mind. If we believe, the mind will start to believe too. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!
Remember Jesus Loves You
Prayer of Salvation
Lord Jesus, I thank you for what you did on the cross for me. Your blood washed away all my sins, by your stripes I was healed, your death and resurrection brought me salvation. Please forgive my sins, and come into my heart as my personal Savior.
Thank You Lord
 Amen

The Tongue



It Is Written, James 1:26, if anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless.
It Is Written, Proverbs 18:21, death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
There are dozens of verses in the Bible about the tongue and it's power for destruction. Even though the tongue can be a force for good, by uplifting people and speaking positive things, most of the time it is used for destruction of people and their reputations.
One of the biggest offenders is gossip. Reputations and lives have been destroyed because of gossip. What starts out as a statement by one person, often grows to unbelievable levels, because it feeds on itself by way of the gossipers recklessness, and their willingness to hurt others. The so-called mob mentality takes effect with words.
Lying is another. There is no such thing as a small lie. Psalm 101:7 tells us what God thinks. He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house; he who tells lies shall not continue in my presence. One of the 10 Commandments tells us not to bear false witness. God hates lies. Revelation 21:27 tells us, there shall by no means enter in anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.
Adam and Eve lost the garden of Eden, because they were deceived by satan. He lied about the truth, and evil among mankind came into the world, and is with us today.
I believe God gave us the tongue to praise him and uplift others. God bless you and your family. Praise The Lord!

Helping Others



It Is Written, 2 Thessalonians 3:13, but as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good.
When most people hear that we should all help others, they usually think about money, and get turned off. The truth is, the Word of God goes far beyond money.
God gave His only Son, so that we might be saved. Jesus suffered for us as He did, so that our sins would be forgiven, our minds bodies and souls would be healed, and by calling on Jesus name and repenting, we would receive the greatest gift of all, salvation.
If each of us makes an effort, we can help many people. Small acts of kindness, such as listening to someone who needs someone to care. A few uplifting words to someone who seems to need it.
Then we have physical help. You may have a neighbor who is sick or elderly. Cut the grass, or shovel the snow. Give them a hot meal once in a while. Give them a ride to the store, or to church on Sunday.
Perhaps the most important thing you can do for friends and strangers, is to pray for them and their salvation. If the Holy Spirit leads, talk to people about Jesus. If you practice what you preach, they will listen eventually. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

Prayer Warriors


It Is Written, Romans 8:26, likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
At one time or another, you may have heard the term prayer warrior, and wondered what it meant. In simple terms, prayer warriors are dedicated to God's Word, and apply everything they know to praying for others.
These warriors spend time studying the Word of God, because as it says in 1 John 5:14-15, now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him. The Bible is the only place to discover what the will of God is.
Without a doubt, praying in the Spirit for others, is the most powerful prayer there is. We may not know what to pray, but the Holy Spirit prays the perfect prayer through us. It is in tune with our Father, every time.
A prayer of petition is a written request to God for something in particular. Scriptures  related to the request are quoted, and the request is specific and detailed. When it is completed, two or more people read it out loud, agree, and believe.
Warriors spend hours each day, and pray as they are led by the Holy Spirit. All prayers are ended with Thanksgiving to our Father for the results. We claim and receive them as we pray. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

Pray / Praise the Way Ahead


It Is Written, Psalm 34:4, I sought the Lord and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Have you ever been concerned about the situation in the world today? How about your future in your personal life? Do you worry, or are you at peace?
If you have a personal relationship with Jesus, you have nothing to fear. You know that you are with God, and God is with you.
If you do not have a personal relationship with Jesus, everything is dark and scary. satan could be running wild in your life, and your fears are becoming your reality.
Consider this. Everything that is happening, can in fact be a wake-up call. satan will tell you that God is punishing you for who you are, or things you did. It is a lie. He's trying to deceive you, to keep you from going to Jesus.
You can determine your future. Turn to Jesus, and open your heart. Listen for His voice, and read His instruction book, the Bible, it's all there. satan cannot control your life, if you give your life to the Lord.
As far as the world situation goes, remember this. The children of Israel were not touched by the plagues that devastated Egypt in the days of Moses. God bless you and your family. Praise The Lord!
