     | 5,306 views

    The devil is always trying to gain a foothold in our life, and he begins his initial onslaught of attacks with the temptation to sin. Temptation "can" be overcome! We must overcome it, so we can refrain from committing sin.

    Satan is looking to pound on our weakest areas . . . When we leave an opening by yielding to temptation, he’ll take advantage. - Kent Crockett(1) In Ephesians 4:27, the Apostle Paul warned, “Do not give the devil a foothold” (NIV).

    The Perversion Scheme Series

     | 4,872 views

    Satan realizes that if he takes something that God created for good, and twists it until it is completely unrecognizable, and even causes it to look like something evil, that he can cheat us out of what God wanted us to have.

    The devil is not a creator. He is very good at perverting things, but he never creates new material. He can only use God’s material. - Daniel Heimbach(1) I want to begin by reminding us how the Bible says that we are at war daily with Satan and his demons (Eph 6:11-12). The devil is real, his ...read more

    Satan loves to make situations which require simple faith and obedience complicated and confusing in order to get us off track. Jehoshaphat was able to overcome doubt - and ultimately defeat - through worshiping the Lord.

    God’s strategy was clear . . . the worshipers went first into the battlefield, and . . . the Lord miraculously defeated their enemies. - Mike Harland(1) If the Lord has ever asked you to do something for Him and you struck out early, then this message is for you! We’re going to find out that ...read more

For the past several weeks we have considered various contrasts Jesus made regarding time honored traditions and the reality of what God ...read more
