Circling Back
I started noticing a pattern in my walk with Jesus. After great spiritual truth comes weariness and the squeeze. Have you ever just felt exhausted when you discover a mighty truth? I had spent days pouring over discovering who my real enemy is and how to arm myself against his…

Finally, Putting on Jesus: Sanity and a Sword
#5 Helmet of Salvation And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Ephesians 6:17 The word salvation here can be translated deliverance and sanity. A mind under the control of God is the mind of Christ. I had been living…

The Victory Begins in Jesus
Maybe it’s just me, but when I really dig in and try to understand God’s Word through the spirit, I seem to make it more complicated than it really is, or perhaps it’s a confession to Jesus of I’m not entirely sure I understand. It’s probably a combination of both.…

Put on All of Jesus! Peace and Faith
When we stand, we need a place to stand with a good footing. You can’t battle sitting or lying down. Ephesians 6:10-18, God tells us to stand four times. V11 stand against the wiles of the devil. V13 Withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand. V14…

Search me, O Lord
Search me, O God, and know my heart: Try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23-24 I love this scripture and it’s apart of my morning prayers. I love that I serve a…

Enduring Conflict
I’ve come to believe we can’t have faith without truly understanding the victory God has won over us. From that victory comes the power of His word. Getting saved is not the finished product. It’s defiantly not the end of all conflict or troubles in our lives. 1 Therefore being…

Victory: Knowing. Recognizing. Yielding.
I thought a lot about God’s miracles in my life. Each time God had done something incredible because he was moving. I still hadn’t quite grasp the concept of victory. Sometimes it’s hard when searching scriptures to find understanding. I had quickly learned you just have to be in prayer…
