Stand Strong in Your Faith


Stand Strong in Your Faith

Jesus shows us in the bible according to several disciples' writings, that when he was in the wilderness, the devil came at him with constant temptation that he had to endure and overthrow. When Jesus returned to the men, he shared three of these instances so that they would understand what the devil's intentions are for all of us. What struck me in this passage was that the devil was attempting to persuade Jesus to be murdered by his own hand. If you ever wonder if the devil is really all that bad, this passage alone in Luke chapter 4 verses 9-13 shows the deceitfulness and desire of ultimate destruction of God's creation and plan by the hands of the devil. Why did Jesus share this with the disciples? The message is for all of us: stand firm in your faith with God. Do not let the devil have a foothold in your life, in any circumstance, with no regard for any consideration. He is out to seek and destroy. Your roots MUST be firmly planted. God is not to be tested. He doesn't need to prove His love for us by taking a leap! Let the Word of God be our sword and our faith in the Word be our shield. Dig into the Word and let God show you how much he loves and cares for you.



And Jesus answered him, “It is said, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

Wading through Grief

Image
  Wading through Grief The nature of grief seems to spill into other areas of our lives while we attempt to navigate it's shores. We can begin to believe we got a better handle on it, creating boundaries to keep it tucked inside, but it can spread quickly and overtake the lines we draw in the sand. So true. As you stand on its shores, can you see what's ahead? Look for the smallest sparkle of light. God knows your heart. He knows what pains you deeply. He sees you long for what and who you miss so dearly. Recognize your desire to replace the hole that was left inside of you. Fill it with God's goodness and let His love wash over any areas that have left you feeling high and dry. What you thirst for, He has for you. "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."--Psalm 147:3 Soon, you will recognize that grief was a gift He provided to help you swim to the next new shore. New territory can spring forth new beginnings. Yes, it will look and feel different. ...

Our Body is a Temple

  KIMALA'S CORNER Our Body is a Temple Consider this: what have you done for yourself lately regarding your physical self care? Do you actively engage in exercise or strenuous activity to get it moving and burning excess calories? Do you conciously choose healthy eating options and promote good healthcare? Do you make regular appointments for dental and physician routine check ups? Do you take care of your outward appearance regarding your hair, face, skin, nails, etc? How about mental self care? Do you only intake that which would do you well, pondering, contemplating and considering your mental thoughts? Do you carefully screen what you watch, listen to and read? Do you take opportunity to unplug and unwind by resting yourself? How about spiritual self care? Can you consider your time each day with the Lord, reading his word, watching Christian movies, listening to spiritual leaders on Podcast and radio? Are you involved with a ministry or bible study with your church? Are you he...

Exceeding Love

Image
Exceeding Love We cannot comprehend it. This kind of unconditional love. The outpouring from a Savior who would give anything for us--longing to have relationship with you and I. No man or woman walking this Earth can compare or even come close to loving you the way that Jesus does. No one. Today, dig deep inside to fill the hurt, anger, pain, upset, anxiousness, worry or disappointment with the One True God. His love is exceeding--His love is healing. Allow yourself to be filled to measure--what does that mean exactly? Well, in my mind, it means to the tippy top!!!! He loves you that much. "and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."--Ephesians 3:19 We are better together when we are Splashed in the Spirit.
