There is nothing more powerful than the words of God. The words of God can impart eternal life and take you to heaven. Knowing the word of God, taking up the sword of the Spirit is the only offensive weapon that we are given. We fight the devil knowing the word of God and authoritative prayer.

Battle Ready: Suit Up - Part 2
Contributed on Mar 14, 2023
Each piece of the armour of God that we are asked to put on is directed to one of the ways in which Satan attacks Christians. Satan accuses, strikes like a snake, tempts and deceives. There are six pieces of armour and these five protect us. If we are going to be battle ready, we better suit up!

Battle Ready: Know Your Enemy - Part One
Contributed on Mar 14, 2023
In order to be prepared for the attacks of the Devil and his demons, we must know more about him. Spiritual warfare has nothing to do with personality, gifting, calling or background. When you signed up to be a Christian, you automatically entered into warfare.
Me – Are we aware of the battle that goes on in the spiritual realm? In every world religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. In every minor religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. Even for those who don’t believe in God, many believe in the supernatural. If ...read more

Contributed on Mar 14, 2023
Are you willing to identify the desires of your heart and bring them to a trusted mature spiritual mentor/guide to help you hear the voice of God?
Did you ever play that game where you asked the question, “What would you do if you won $1 million?" What would you do? I asked my dad that question when I was about 10 years old.

A Contentious Spirit - Speaking Strife
Contributed on Feb 11, 2025
Here’s a fun fact: You don’t actually have to correct someone when they’re wrong. Shocking, I know! There’s no official appointment letter naming you Earth’s Guardian of Truth and Accuracy.

My Name Is Gossip
Contributed on Feb 11, 2025
I am more deadly than a shell from the howitzer. I win without killing. I tear down homes, break hearts, and wreck lives. I travel on the wings of the wind. No innocence is strong enough to intimidate me, no purity pure enough to daunt me. I have no regard for truth, no respect for justice, no ...read more

Think Before You Speak
Contributed on Feb 6, 2025
Taking a moment to think before you speak is like installing a verbal facemask —it gives you a chance to avoid regrettable word splatter before it happens. Now, let’s be honest—there are four types of people in this world: 1. Those who think before they speak (a rare and majestic ...read more
