Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
____________________________________


What would you think if you saw your favorite football team run onto the field in pajamas?  The opposing team would take the field fully suited up and ready for the game!  And your team would be just out there . . . not prepared.   This is what we do each day when we neglect to put on the armor of GOD.  God asks us to put on the “whole” armor of GOD.  Truth be told, this world is full of plots and schemes that Satan is using to try to take you down.  And sometimes, we make it so easy!  We go to the places we should not go.  We look and listen to the things we shouldn’t be looking at or listening to.  And we think about anything and everything except for pleasing GOD.


In essence we take the field in our PJs.  We do not have the armor nor the weapons to combat Satan in this world.  We set ourselves up for a very painful lesson.  Do not depend on your own strength to succeed.  Satan has been at this game for a lot longer than you have been breathing and knows what to do to tempt you to fall.  Look up, Pray up, Act up, and Suit up for Christ.


Be encouraged God is faithful and has fitted you for your armor! All you have to do is put it on!

COMFORT IN THE VALLEY!

Isaiah 40:30-31 New King James Version (NKJV) 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, 31 But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. In the short time that you have in this world you can expect to be tested. You should look for it and know that you will have valleys and mountain tops along the path that you walk as a Christian. It may seem that the path gets more and more narrow. It may seem that you come across another path that seems to lead you to easier terrain and a location with “greener grass”. Do not be fooled or discouraged. With each season of testing GOD allows you to experience, there will be a season of recovery and spiritual growth. When you are in your valley you can rest in the fact that you will have to go up a hill to reach the mountain top. And the higher the mountain top the l...

RETURN!

Luke 15:20 20 And he arose and came to his father. But while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. ________________________________________________   Some of us have struggled for so long with issues and the trappings of life that we have a desire to change, and break free, but we don’t know where to start.   We are also afraid of what it really means to be free from the struggle that has accompanied us for so long in our lives. . . We ask and say: “Well, Lord If I break free from, (adultery, obesity, smoking, lusting, alcohol, sex) what will I have to fight next? What will I have to focus on next?   I don’t know what freedom really feels like and that scares me!” These feelings are normal and truth be told, these feelings are some of the reasons we have relapsed back into our familiar activities.   However GOD has always been watching you.   Even before you accepted Chri...

Be Encouraged!!

Ready or Not: Here Life Comes Isaiah 41:10 fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. I am starting this blog in response to the excuses I have had as to why I am not doing more for the kingdom of GOD. I have been in the USAF for 7 years and have been a studying to become a Chaplain and pastor for the past 7 years. I have been called into ministry for the past 17 years.. I have had a strong pulling in my soul to serve in full time ministry and have let myself put up blocks in my mind because of my commitment to my country as a military member. This showes a weakness in my heart and mind. I realize that just because I am not a full time Pastor or in "fulltime ministry" does not mean I do not have the opportunity to minister on a daily basis. Realize that no matter where you go or what you do there are opportunities to share GOD's word and work for him. ...
