@jonathanccadams Yes. Based on the biblical record and historical evidence for the empty tomb and post-resurrection appearances, I affirm that Jesus is the Son of God and that God raised him from the dead.
Demons are a bit like vampires
You have to open a door to let them in
You give permission by some type of slip up thru sin.
Could be the music you Listen to could be alcohol could be anything that is a sin.
Must put the full armor of God on.
Thinking out loud don’t look at me like I’m perfect in this aspect but I am aware of what’s actually happening. God is Good
Non of this easy and sometimes can be taken lightly ect but it is to be taken seriously and direct. That’s my advice
Six Battles a Man Must Win in Private:
1. His Eyes: What he looks at when nobody sees. Job 31:1
2. His Thoughts: What he allows to live in his mind. 2 Corinthians 10:5
3. His Appetites: What he refuses to deny. 1 Corinthians 9:27
4. His Pride: What he will not confess. Proverbs 28:13
5. His Anger: What he keeps rehearsing. Ephesians 4:26
6. His Prayer: Whether he seeks God before he acts. Luke 18:1
The man you are in secret is the man you really are.
@crazyclipsonly I hate the guy in the movie who coulda just GOT TO THE POINT saying the thing that coulda prevented the whole terrible movie from happening. This guy is that guy. Just spit it out bro
it is an unwritten rule of life that after every prolonged period of hardship and uncertainty, there is going to be a period when you are going to achieve quantum leaps across multiple areas of your life. the only requirement is that you do not give up on yourself.
Not everything is a demon.
Sometimes, it's our own lack of daily discipline to the Word & prayer (& fasting as well, if that's part of your walk).
Believers can give the devil WAY too much credit.
It just hit me for the first time that, soooo many decades after Pharaoh killed the newborn babies of the Israelites, God took the firstborn of every Egyptian household. There was not one house without a death the night of the Passover.
You cannot read the Old Testament without learning a couple of things: 1. God tells very long stories, 2. God‘s people can go many, many years without a big moment of interaction or deliverance, 3. God never leaves a narrative unfinished or, to make up a word, unvengeanced.
I truly find the Old Testament as comforting as the New. Mostly because they are one, big, AMAZING story, and He is the same yesterday, today, tomorrow. So how He reveals Himself in the entire long Book is exactly who He is today.
The conclusion? Be on His team, walk in His ways, and pray without ceasing.
