3 Warning Signs You're Under Fiendish Spiritual Attack

Image
Do you ever find yourself trudging along as if in a fog? Something's off and you can't nail it down. You're swimming through mud and nothing makes sense. Finally the light-bulb goes off in your mind: You're under spiritual attack. The cloak of darkness over your mind is a common symptom of the fog of war (aptly so  named by John Eldredge ). Stuff is going on in the unseen realm, and it affects us. Often our most dramatic challenges come after a spiritual high or significant progress, and it can take you down. Understanding what it feels like when under spiritual attack is a wonderful key allowing you to get your fight back. Jesus said, "The thief does not come, except to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10). So if there's stealing, killing, and destroying going on, you can be certain the enemy is at work. Jesus always gives life. The enemy will use any means he can to m...

5 Ways We Quench the Holy Spirit

How would we respond today if God wanted to repeat the miracle of Pentecost in one of our carefully scripted Sunday meetings? I wonder if we would embrace the unexpected wildness of that Acts 2 moment. Or would we tell the Spirit to behave? Pentecost was an abrupt heavenly invasion. It wasn't planned in a staff meeting; it came "suddenly," according to Acts 2:2. The noise of wind was not on the program; neither were flames of holy fire. No one in that prayer meeting in the upper room in Jerusalem expected to speak a supernatural language. Certainly Peter did not expect to give his unrehearsed sermon, and I'm sure he was surprised when 3,000 people were converted. The church was born in a moment of unearthly, unimagined strangeness. We will celebrate Pentecost this year on June 4. Would we have room for this miracle today if God wanted to do it again? Would we welcome the interruption? I fear we have enacted so many human controls that the Spirit is totally ...

The Power of His Resurrection

His glory is reveal in the darkest place  ‘And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not’ John 1:5. The glory of Jesus is the light of God, he is the beauty of God, this speak of the radiant brightness of his person, the shining light of God’s shekinah glory. We cannot speak of the glory of God without talking about the light that describe his person and the great one that seats on the throne in heaven and shining into the lives of the children of men here on earth. The life of Jesus is the light of men As i write this book, i cast my mind back on the whole experience of Christ’s  death and resurrection from the grave, can there be any glory greater than the story of Christ’s  death and resurrection both on earth and in the heavens above?, absolutely no one. He is the light of men and following him means walking in the light and glory of God. ‘Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followet...

5 Things I Had To Give Up To be Successful

The story you are about to read is not about Pastor Williams but an article i think can help you for your personal development from another writer. An uncomfortable but powerful truth that took most of my 20’s to internalize:  There’s an opportunity cost to everything worthwhile in life. No matter what you’re trying to accomplish, you’ll have to give up something in order to make it happen. If you want to become a doctor, you give up most of your early 20’s and about 10 years of your life for school and training. One of my best friends from college is a neurosurgery resident. By the time his training is done he’ll be almost 40. If you want to become an entrepreneur, you’re going to give up a list of things a mile long. Time and the addictive feeling of certainty and security that come with a steady paycheck are just the tip of the iceberg. When we see the careers of professional athletes, what the media shows us is glitz and glamor, ESPN highlight reels, s...
