How to have a mind focussed on Christ 11/25/2009
How To Have a Mind Devoted to Christ
As we open to I Thessalonians 5, we open to Paul preparing
new believers for spiritual warfare. As believers and
followers of Christ, they were going to be attacked in their
minds, by the Devil. That is where he starts. Your body only

God. Only a mind stayed on the Lord can have perfect ...

A step of faith always involves the acceptance of a calculated
risk. It is not blind credulity but calm confidence. The
heroes of faith had their portraits hung in God’s Hall of
Fame because they were prepared to stake everything on
His faithfulness. Had there been n element of ...

Let us note them at the very beginning-‘grace’ and’ peace’.

the Lord Jesus Christ’ (Ephesians 1:2). No two words are
more important in the whole of our faith than ’grace’ and’
peace’. Yet, how lightly we tend to drop them off our tongues

the power of your thought 12/16/2008
One great asset that we have is our thought. Nothing not
even the almighty God interferes with it. But whatever
we give it to can make use of it, including situation of life
and circumstances; spirit and human. Our thought has an
awesome power that can do anything that comes to it, and
that can be used to do anything by whichever power will give
it to. As human, you control the awesome power of ...

I AM’s union assaulted and now asunder by cultures couture

Dancing With God 10/30/2008
Here is a post I got an email from one of my friends who was

it, cheers.
When I meditated on the word Guidance, I kept seeing "dance"
at the end of the word. I remember reading that doing God's
will is a lot like dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing
feels right. The movement doesn't flow with the music,

WAITING ON THE LORD 9/19/2008
WAITING ON THE LORD By Charles Stanley Timing is everything. You see this in war–attacking at
the wrong moment could cost you the battle. You see it in
the operating room–too fast, too short, too much, too little,
or too late would be a tragedy. You see it in sports, wherein
a delay could cost you the game. Of all the things in which
timing is important, however, it is in our ...
