Do you ever rehearse a lifetime of regrets, and wish you had one big do-over, to go back and live life differently? What kind of life should we live if we really want a life worth living?

    In the wake of the mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio, politicians and many Christians are repeating “Thoughts and prayers are not enough. We need action.” Could it be that they, like many Christians, don’t truly understand prayer and what it can accomplish?

    In 2015, after a shooter left 14 dead in California, the cover of the New York Daily News shouted “God Isn’t Fixing This! As the latest batch of innocent Americans are left lying in pools of blood, cowards (referring to politicians) who could truly end gun scourge continue to hide behind ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 13, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,329 views

    Within the ranks of Spiritual Warfare ministry there is a common belief that the enemy can prevail against a Christian through the casting of curses.

    This belief has resulted in the need to specialize in breaking “word” and “generational” curses that come against Christians because they are generally blamed for various problems one might encounter. A foundational truth of Christianity is that no weapon, including a curse (or hex), can ...read more

    When we pray, "Thy will be done," we are committing ourselves to desire, discover, and do the will of God with grateful hearts.
