    Not everything is a demon. Today we will look at strongholds in the life of the believer. Placed there by the flesh (a different enemy of the Spirit) and they need to be torn down and replaced.

    Successful marriages are built on: 1. Self-giving, rather than self-fulfillment. 2. Building each other up, rather than tearing each other down. 3. Continual growth, rather than taking the relationship for granted.

I know. I know the one in whom I have put my trust. ...read more
