He uses half-truths and outright lies to weigh us down and cripple our walk.   Humanity also has a Creator God who loves His creation. God informed us of the standard we couldn’t reach without Him.  He provided the solution we needed and couldn’t provide for ourselves. Redemption through our Savior. Reconciliation. Creation again reunited with the Creator who

So why share it? I could write it out and tuck it away. That would protect me from any backlash or criticism or judgement from those who will not or cannot understand. However, I have long known that the call to write that God placed upon me was/is not only for my benefit. I am not

Whether you believe in demons or not does not exempt you from their ability to torment you in the depths of your soul. In fact, the more you deny their existence, the easier their job is because they can play with your mind and heart as freely as they like without any repercussions or resistance from you. I am heartbroken and angry that such a high-profile prize has just been scored by our enemy (I am NOT

He knows how to twist them around, take them out of context, to mislead us away from Truth. He even tried to use scriptures to mislead Christ Himself! (see Matt 4:1-11) Who are we to think he will not use them to deceive us? However, Christ knew the whole Truth. He knew the spiritual meaning of the words thrown at Him. He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. He

Only God’s Truth & wisdom can combat lies & folly. Have you ever heard the sound of a musical instrument that is out of tune? It can be downright painful!  Out of tune instruments cannot produce beautiful music.   The instrument must be tuned by someone who knows what they are doing so that

originally written 1 Jun 10 posted 1 Nov 15 When we accept lies, our eyes become blinded.   Even with just the first lie accepted...our eyes start becoming cloudy to the Truth.   The more that we accept the lies of this world, the less we will be able to recognize the Truth that doesn't change.  Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of
