    The Breath Of Life Series

    Contributed by Tesh Njokanma on May 19, 2018
     | 15,761 views

    The breath of life is key to occupying effectively for the Lord. Once you have the breath of life on the inside of you, you are the one God is depending on to occupy for Him.

    The Bible is very intentional about the things that are mentioned in scripture and the things God’s word is silent about. For instance in Luke 19:11-26, in the parable of the king who entrusted money to his servants and told them to occupy with what he had given them until he returned, nothing is ...read more

    In the game of Poker, a player will look for behaviors to determine what kind of cards another player is holding. In the same way, Satan looks for behaviors in our lives to see if he can get an advantage ver us.

    Open your Bibles to First Peter chapter five. We’re going to read verse eight. “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour.” The word “seeking” means “to seek with the intention of killing.” Now let that sink in.
