SPIRITUAL WARFARE IS A REAL PROBLEM THAT AFFECTS US TODAY (WATCH VIDEO)
Read 2 Corinthians 10:3-6
The Bible warns us that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood. Our battle is not against people but against spiritual wickedness. The Bible contains detailed accounts of spiritual attacks on people. The Bible gives details about how Jesus cast out demons that had taken possession of people's minds and bodies. What makes us think that we don't have to worry about such things today?
Some Christians will roll their eyes when they hear about spiritual warfare as if it is some kind of taboo subject they don't believe in. Yet the Bible speaks about spiritual warfare and warns us about it. We often don't realize when we are being spiritually attacked. We often don't know how to fight it. But we should learn.

The Best Advice I Never Got When I Needed It Most
For scripture to back this up, Read Psalm 37
Proverbs 3
and John 15: 7& 8
Proverbs 3
and John 15: 7& 8
I'm going to show you a list. As you
read the list, guess what these things have in
common:
Talking disrespectfully to parents
and others
getting drunk
swearing
having sex outside of marriage
lying
being angry, resentful or
unforgiving
stealing or cheating
I could go on with the list, but I
think you already know what they have in common. They are a list of
things people do that God does not approve of. You will find in the
Bible many verses that warn of the consequences we face when making
the decisions above.
In my early twenties, I was guilty
of doing three of the above listed offenses on a regular basis. And I
have often said that my early twenties were the worst years of my
life. I believe there's a reason for this. You see, there's a simple
principle to life that many people ignore. And it is this: Our
actions and behavior affect our happiness and the things that happen
to us.
In my early twenties I was pretty
miserable. I wish someone would have told me that my misery was
self-inflicted. The choices I made and the way I was behaving were
the reason for my misery. If I had chosen to live according to God's
rules, my life would have been completely different. I would have
been blessed by God instead of cursed.
You may think cursed is a harsh
word, but that's exactly how I felt in my early twenties. Nothing
good happened to me. I was always struggling financially. I felt
lonely. Nothing came easily to me. Everything was a constant
struggle. I wasn't living a godly life, so I didn't have God's help,
guidance, or blessings.
It's been about thirty years since I
was in my early twenties, living life on my own terms and not caring
about God or why he created me. Not caring about living the way God
wanted me to live. Not caring about how I treated people. Thinking
only of myself and doing whatever I wanted to do. Everyone else saw
how messed up I was back then, but I didn't see it until many years
later.
It wasn't until I started living
right that I realized how rich and rewarding life can be. I still
have struggles, but I'm not lonely anymore. Good things happen to me
all the time. Wonderful blessings fall in my lap unexpectedly. God
has blessed me with work that I enjoy. He's given me financial
stability, although I'm far from rich. My emotions aren't up and down
anymore, I have peace. I'm dealing with a body that's getting older,
but I wouldn't go back to 23 and all its misery for anything.
Sometimes you just want to shake
people and say, “The reason your life is a mess is because God has
turned you over to yourself. He's not helping you. You rejected Him
over and over again and now you are living without His blessings,
without His guidance, and without the love and joy He wants to bring
you.”
I wish someone would have shaken me in my early twenties. Maybe someone wanted to shake me, but they were afraid I might hate them. They didn't have the courage to risk my resentment for the greater good of saving me from my miserable self. What could someone have said to me that might have changed my life? What words could have motivated me to change? Perhaps these words:
"There's no better way to prove that
God exists than to give Him a chance to show you the changed life you
will have when you begin to live on His terms. Stop swearing. Stop
getting drunk. Stop having sex outside of marriage. Stop lying and
cheating. Stop saying and doing mean things to people and start
loving them. Forgive those who have hurt you, so you can be free of
the hatred you feel. So you don't walk around sounding like an angry,
miserable grouch...
Our lives on this earth pass by
quickly. Some day, maybe sooner than you think, you will discover what
lies beyond the grave. I can't prove that God exists. I can only tell
you the difference He's made in my life. And that's more evidence
than you can give me to deny His existence. Whether you believe in
God or not, His existence is already determined. He won't go away
because you don't believe...
Why people don't have more fear of
God is a mystery to me. Why they choose to make the same mistakes
over and over without learning from them is something that baffles
me. When are you going to learn that your life is a mess because you
reject God and you are doing and saying things that may please you, but it
doesn't please Him. That is why you suffer. That is why unhappiness and depression follow you everywhere."
These are the words that I wish
someone would have told me in my early twenties. I can only wonder
about the difference that advice might have made. Life is not about me. Life is about pleasing God, and there is great reward in making that one decision. But you will never experience the rewards until you get close to God and live the way He wants you to live.

THE LAND MOURNS... the bible comes to life
"There is no faithfulness, no love, no acknowledgment of God in the land. There is only cursing, lying and murder, stealing and adultery; they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed. Because of this the land mourns, and all who live in it waste away; the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the fish of the sea are dying. [Hosea 4:1-3]

THE HOPE THAT MAKES CHRISTIANS UNCOMFORTABLE
THE BLESSED HOPE ELUDES MANY CHRISTIANS
By Danelle Carvell
One of the most controversial subjects
among Christians is the rapture of the church. Christians seem
confused and frightened by this subject. And some pastors don't teach
the whole counsel of God's word, which would help relieve the fear
and confusion. False teachings, weak sermons, and Christians who
ignore the truth contribute to the confusion (2 Timothy 4:1-5).
The
rapture is an event which was prophesied by the Apostle Paul. He gave
a clear description of it in his letters to the Thessalonians and
Corinthians. According to scripture, at some future time, believers
will be snatched from the Earth in a fraction of a second and
transported to Heaven. This event is controversial because
some Christians don't believe in the rapture of the church. And many
who do believe are not looking forward to what the Bible calls our
“blessed hope” (Titus 2:13).
I discussed the rapture with two women
who attend church regularly, and I expected both of them to be
receptive to the topic, but they were not. The first woman said the
rapture is “science fiction” and the second woman argued that we
can't take the Bible literally because her pastor said we can't. And
since he doesn't believe in the rapture, neither does she.
Those women should read God's word
instead of only trusting the church pastor. “All scripture is given
by inspiration of God...” (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Why would God
inspire the writing of a book that we can't take literally?
Christians who don't believe in the rapture don't know the Bible:
John 14: 1-3
This passage
contains the promise from Jesus that He will return to Earth for the
believers and take them to Heaven.
1 Thess 4: 13-18
In this passage,
the apostle Paul answers the question, “Do believers who have died
miss out on the rapture?”
1 Thess 4: 16-18
In
this passage, Paul spells out the chronological sequence of the
rapture event and he concludes that the promise of the rapture should
be a comfort
to us.
We are supposed to
find comfort in this promised event, yet many Christians are far from
comfortable when discussing the rapture. You can almost see them
squirm in their seats as they try to change the subject. “That's
not a popular topic,”they argue. Christians who convey such an
attitude about our blessed hope are a mystery to me.
Haven't they read
2 Timothy 9:7-8? Don't they know that the crown of righteousness
awaits all who long for the Lord's soon return?
Haven't they read
Luke 21:34-36, which instructs us to pray always that we may be
accounted worthy to escape?
What exactly are
we escaping from when the church is raptured? The same thing that
Noah and Lot escaped from when God rescued them from an evil world
that grew more and more evil. We learn from the accounts of Noah and
Lot that God removes His people when danger is involved.
We live in a
dangerous world. Nothing about planet earth is getting better. The
danger only grows worse. More and more people are carrying guns to
protect themselves from lawless thugs like those who are killing and
injuring people on the streets as part of a game called the knockout
game. Our society has sunk so low that people are now punching total
strangers and catching it on camera for entertainment.
Our language is
growing worse, our morals are declining, the rules of modesty and
respect have vanished. Those who know what's really going on in the
world and those who know God's word realize that we are living in a
time that is similar to the days of Noah and Lot.
In Matthew 24,
Jesus is asked, “What shall be the signs of your coming and of the
end of the world?” Jesus then describes what the world will be like
just before He returns to remove (rapture) those who have received
Him as their savior. What Jesus describes in Matthew 24 is the same
mess that describes our present world.
Have you noticed the increase in the
number and severity of earthquakes? The bizarre animal deaths and
sinkholes? Record-setting storms? Destructive tornadoes and tsunamis?
The volcanoes all over the world that have lain dormant for centuries
that are now erupting? Does the obvious decline of morality in people
alarm you at all. Do you worry what this world will be like for your
children?
At this point we are handing our
children a 17 trillion dollar national debt that will be impossible
to pay back. Millions of people have lost their health insurance
under Obamacare. For others, their rates have quadrupled. Thousands
of doctors are giving up their practices because they can't maintain
their businesses under Obamacare. Thousands of volunteer fire
departments face closure or financial hardship because Obamacare
requires that volunteers be given full health coverage. And when 12
million illegal aliens become American citizens with a flick of
Obama's pen, the fallout will be devastating.
Did you watch the House hearings that
looked at Obama's growing dictatorial powers? Our own government
leaders know we have a dictator in the White House, but the American
people don't care. Obama is caught in one scandal after another and
we yawn. Fast and Furious, Benghazi, and the scandals with the IRS,
the Department of Justice and the NSA haven't woken anyone from their
slumber. We swallowed the lie “If you like your health insurance,
you can keep it.” Chalk that up as scandal number six.
The birth certificate scandal counts as
seven. Obama claims he was born in Hawaii, but his wife has said that
Kenya is his homeland. No one holds Obama accountable. Like Hitler,
he does what he wants and no one questions him. So why is it so hard
to believe that his Affordable Care Act allows for death panels to
decide who gets healthcare and who doesn't?
Possibly bigger and more dangerous than
Obamacare is the the Trans-Pacific Partnership. This brilliant idea
will offer huge advantages to foreign businesses while putting
American companies, especially small businesses at a disadvantage so
severe that many won't be able to survive. This could pass early next
year and it's an all-out assault on our national sovereignty as it
unconstitutionally transfers legislative powers. One more crippling
blow to America.
Obama has appointed hard core sharia
law Muslims to key positions in Washington. If he condones the
cruelty of sharia law and if he voted to deny care for babies who
survive abortions, then what cruelty awaits the American people? He
refuses to put his hand over his heart and say the pledge of
allegiance. He refuses to wear an American flag pin. His actions
display a hatred for America and we give him four more years.
This country is being destroyed by a
dictator who glorifies Muslims but claims to be a Christian. He mocks
the God of the Bible by his love for Islam. Muslims believe that
anyone who doesn't worship Allah is an infidel who should be killed.
Why are Christians who hold home Bible
studies being harassed? Everything related to Jesus Christ, the Holy
Bible and the God who inspired it is being pushed out of sight and
mind. Why do 100 million Christians face persecution every day? Why
can't Phil Robertson quote scripture from the Holy Bible without
being suspended from his show on A&E. This country has declared
war on Christianity and in the process has denied Christians their
constitutional right of free speech.
Why are we seeing a repression of
Christian faith in the military? Freedom of religion is no longer one
of the rights our soldiers are allowed to defend. The US Department
of Defense has recently begun teaching seminars that list evangelical
Christians and Catholics as subversive groups. US troops who express
their Christian faith are being punished. Don't believe me? Take
four minutes to watch “A Clear and Present Danger” on You Tube
We live in a totalitarian police state
that monitors our every move. Cameras are watching us. Our phone
conversations are recorded. A recent article in the Washington Post
claims that the NSA is gathering nearly 5 billion records a day on
the whereabouts of cell phones around the world, enabling Big Brother
to track your daily movement and map your relationships with others.
You may think you have nothing to hide, but if Christians can be
labeled as subversive, who's next?
Our education system is being destroyed
by progressives who push their Common Core Curriculum. “Five
Reasons the Common Core is Destroying Childhood” by Katie Hurley
explains why. Or go to theblaze.com to view a complimentary clip
titled, “David Barton Explains How Common Core Poses Serious
Problems for The Future of The Republic.”
If these things continue to worsen,
won't we be crying out to escape? Yet some Christians reading this
might say I'm a doom and gloomer. They have no hope in anything
beyond their lives on this earth. They don't know God's word and they
don't want to hear anything that might disrupt their love of this
world--tomorrow night's game, their dinner reservations, or the next
episode of DWTS.
The first century church had a strong
desire for the soon return of Jesus. I see no such yearning in our
churches today. Scripture constantly warns us to watch for the Lord's
coming and be ready (Luke 12: 35,40). By being ignorant of scripture
and not looking forward to the Lord's return, Christians are
fulfilling Peter's words in his second letter (2 Peter 3:1-10).
In closing, I have three questions for
Christians who either don't believe in the rapture or are not looking
forward to it:
Why aren't you
looking forward to an event that is described in the Bible as our
blessed hope?
What are you
afraid of?
Do you love this
crumbling, corrupt world so much that you couldn't let go of it if
God calls you home?

WAKE UP! OUR FREEDOM IS DYING
"When Barack Obama says he wants to transform America, and he looks down
his nose at people who “cling” to their guns and their Bible, he
understands that the critical transition America has to make is to
reject the Declaration, to reject that living, breathing document of the
Constitution."

MEAN GIRLS PAY A BIG PRICE
What is it about girls and women? They just can't seem to get along. It's no coincidence that the number one post on my blog is about women who can't get along. This is obviously a subject that many people can relate to. And I feel inspired to write about it once again because I've been witnessing the evidence a lot lately.
I recently attended eighth grade recognition night at Halifax Middle School. Female students gave wonderful speeches about the memories they will one day look back on and the friendships that they cherish. The program was held on stage under a banner that read, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
The very next day during a field day event several girls displayed their true colors by being mean. They laughed, They made fun. They spewed their hatred with sarcastic remarks that were meant to humiliate and bring pain.
The banner that those girls stood under the night before was made into a mockery. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Why is that such a difficult rule to live by?
I've pondered this question many times in the past year and a half. I've watched women and girls take pleasure in making others feel inadequate. They just couldn't wait to point out the faults of another and they often preferred an audience while doing it. I've overheard conversations that were filled with envy toward others. Some of the incidences became so bad that I had to walk away from positions that I enjoyed.
Our culture has become nothing more than a fiercely competitive playing field for girls and women. Years ago women supported and encouraged each other. Today they are taught to be mean, to compete, to be the best, and to walk on anyone who gets in their way.
I wrote a brief article titled, Mean Girls Need a Honey Lesson, which I posted on my blog a while back. It was about how women behave on the TV shows The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. I pointed out that on almost every season of the Bachelor, the girl who is chosen is the girl who doesn't badmouth the other girls because she chooses not to have a competitive attitude, The girl who is relaxed, calm and gently respectful of others is the girl that gets the guy. I can pick her out every time.
The moral of that story is that there's a price for being mean. There's a price for thinking you're better than others. There's a price for treating people disrespectfully. There's a price for displaying envy and making cutting remarks. There's a price for thinking that every female that crosses your path is competition that needs to be brought down.
God has a way of exposing competitive women and showing the world their true colors. He has a way of withholding blessing from girls and women who don't encourage each other. He has a way of bringing misery into the lives of those who choose to hate instead of love.
God's word teaches us to honor people and he promises that things will go well in our lives if we do. But God's word also warns about the curses that will follow us when we are hateful and don't live according to his rules. Read the entire chapter of Deuteronomy 28 and you'll realize just how much you hurt yourself when you're hateful toward people.
There's a payoff for being kind. There's a curse for being cruel. That's the way the world works. So next time you're tempted to make that sassy remark or cut someone to the core, remember that you're not just hurting her, you're hurting yourself. By your own choice you're bringing curses into your life. Things will not go well with you if you choose to be a mean girl.

HOW MUCH WILL WE TOLERATE?
It absolutely astounds me how tolerant people are about the government incursion into their daily lives. It has now been three years since the TSA was allowed to feel up strangers at the airport. And Obama has the power to arrest anyone for any reason in the name of terrorism. When you add the latest breach of trust, I just wonder what would cause the America people to say, “Now, you’ve gone too far.” Because the Bible warns that the last days will be a time of global dictatorship. My fear is that they will wait too long to become outraged.

THE END OF THE GODLY MOTHER
I'm still on break, but I wanted to post an article for Mother's Day. We live in a culture that attacks women who live according to God's word. If you dress modestly, you're a prude. If you have a gentle, quiet spirit you're shy and unambitious. To be a homemaker means being laughed at. The work that wives and mothers do is not valued in today's world.
Godly women are demeaned constantly for the way they choose to live. In this culture only thin, beautiful, scantily clad money makers are worth anything. We even criticize mothers for wanting to stay home and care for their children. Our culture tells women to love money more. Not even the church is commited to protecting the roles of godly mothers. This is why they are a dying breed.

WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON IN THE MIDDLE EAST?
"During the next major regional war in the Middle East we will likely see death on a scale that is unprecedented. It won't be like the wars of 1967 or 1973. It will likely be a fight to the death where nothing is held back. You see, the truth is that most Americans have no idea what is really going on in the Middle East. "

BUREAUCRACY OUT OF CONTROL
This is an instance of bureaucracy out of control. All this new law does is create a whole new raft of EU civil servants being paid to move mountains of papers round all day, while interfering with the right of people to grow what they want, and charging fees for the use of plants that were domesticated and bred by the public over thousands of years of small-scale agriculture.

BACKLOG ON GUN ORDERS HITS 2 MILLION
Backlog on Gun Orders Hits 2 Million
04/30/13 How many guns can the American people absorb? There seems to
be no end to the arming, and now the Americans are like a huge massive
militia. If a strong politician steps forward, who the people can rally
around, it is very possible that a massive armed resistance can fast be
formed. This is very volatile with Obama demonizing huge sections of the
population, the economy in shambles and Obama also pitting the American
people against each other.
HOW WICKED THE WORLD IS GETTING
"Tim Tebow is being passed around like a bad penny, because the open
confession of his Christian faith makes the establishment uncomfortable.
They don’t care if he could carry them all the way to the Super Bowl.
They reject him because the light in him stings their darkened souls."

Pray Boy No, Gay Boy Yes
from the Rapture Ready blog

It is absolutely stunning how quickly the moral foundation of our nation has been eroding away. Sometimes I have to wonder if the prophet Isaiah was being prophetic about our timeframe when he wrote, “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20)
A week ago, two people in the sports world made news. One was a football player who was rejected because of his strong Christian confession and the other was a gay basketball player who was praised for simply declaring his sexual preference.
The football star was Tim Tebow, who has gotten under the skin of the liberal media and other atheist groups, making himself the “poster boy” for Christianity. Tebow accomplished this task by praying on the field after a win, putting Bible verses on his eye black during games, and starring in an anti-abortion ad during the Super Bowl.
I knew when Tebow moved from Colorado to the New York Jets it would end in disaster. The left-coast press did everything they could to attack him. I remember a bunch of Salem witches casting spells on Tim Tebow to ensure he would lose the big game.
The New York Jets couldn’t have hated Tim Tebow more. They dumped him on the first Monday after the NFL draft, knowing that other teams’ rosters would be filled. The chance Tebow will find another job in the league is bleak. Their action would make sense if Tebow had an arrest record or showed up late for meetings or cost the Jets the playoffs with a bad interception. The Jets barely using him in a waste of a season─he appeared in just 77 offensive plays.
What makes the hatred of Tebow all the more hard to understand is how good he has been for the business side of football. The public has had an overwhelmingly positive view of a God-fearing quarterback. In one poll, Tebow was voted the favorite active pro-athlete. He has generated huge ratings. When he played for the Broncos, one game had the highest-rated NFL wildcard game since 1988. Tebow’s famous eighty-yard touchdown pass on the first play of overtime resulted in a record 9,420 tweets per second. According to Twitter, it was the most frenzied response for any sporting event.
Tim Tebow is being passed around like a bad penny, because the open confession of his Christian faith makes the establishment uncomfortable. They don’t care if he could carry them all the way to the Super Bowl. They reject him because the light in him stings their darkened souls.
The same day Tebow was being sunned, Jason Collins became the first-ever openly gay man in a major American team sport. In a first-person article posted on the Sports Illustrated website, Collins said, “I’m a 34-year-old NBA center. I’m black. And I’m gay.” Collins was predictably showered with praise:
ESPN’s Chris Broussard had pro-gay groups asking for his head when he said homosexuality constitutes “open rebellion to God.” During a Monday episode of “Outside the Lines” he said:
If you are someone who realizes how wicked the world is getting, there is still hope for you. Society may be doomed to suffer God’s wrath, but you can escape by seeking the grace that can only come from the blood of Jesus.
“Come now, let us reason together,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool” (Isaiah 1:18-19).

The head of the NBA said he was proud of Collins.
Former president Bill Clinton congratulated him.
President Obama called to congratulate him.
First lady Michelle Obama tweeted her support for Collins. “So proud of
you, Jason Collins! This is a huge step forward for our country. We’ve
got your back!”
There were a few people who chose to rain on Collins’ coming out parade.
Ben Shapiro, editor-at-large for Breitbart.com got flack for saying:
“So Jason Collins is a hero because he’s gay? Our standard for heroism
has dropped quite a bit since Normandy.”
ESPN’s Chris Broussard had pro-gay groups asking for his head when he said homosexuality constitutes “open rebellion to God.” During a Monday episode of “Outside the Lines” he said:
Personally, I don’t believe that you can live an openly homosexual
lifestyle, or an openly premarital sex between heterosexuals ...
if you’re openly living that kind of lifestyle, then the Bible
says you know them by their fruits. It says that’s a sin
and if you’re openly living in unrepentant sin, whatever it may be, not
just homosexuality, [but] adultery, fornication, premarital sex,
whatever it may be, I believe that’s walking in open rebellion to
God and to Jesus Christ. So I would not characterize that person
as a Christian, because I don’t think the Bible would characterize
him as a Christian.
There is no doubt in my mind that we have reached the point where sin
produces a type illogical insanity. Anyone who thinks someone who has
sex with his same gender is preferred over someone who prays on the
field needs to be fitted with one of those white jackets that buckles in
the back.
If you are someone who realizes how wicked the world is getting, there is still hope for you. Society may be doomed to suffer God’s wrath, but you can escape by seeking the grace that can only come from the blood of Jesus.
“Come now, let us reason together,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool” (Isaiah 1:18-19).
THE DANGER IS REAL, PRAY FOR OUR LEADERS

This is a great list to take the time to read. Every day I wish I could go back and say or do something in a more humble manner. Humility is difficult. But it makes the world a better place.

Sorry Obama, but the God of the Holy Bible will never bless the murder of babies. Are you talking about another God perhaps?

Activist Post: They Are Murdering Small Business: The Percentage Of Self-Employed Americans Is At A Record Low
"A person who seeks to help others create their own successful businesses and generate abundant profits for themselves and their employees is practicing empowerment and is therefore GOOD. But a person who seeks to destroy entrepreneurship, suppress innovation, punish small businesses and burden private sector job creation with onerous taxes and regulation is practicing control and is therefore EVIL." - Mike Adams

Activist Post: Scientists Developing New Autism Vaccine Ignoring Likely Cause, Pushing Pharma’s Agenda
Here we have yet another example of just how desperate governments and the pharmaceutical industries are to protect the vaccination schedule. Instead of admitting that vaccinations are not only damaging the health of our children and that vaccines are totally ineffective at controlling diseases, governments get together with scientists to cash in on children’s suffering and develop yet another useless vaccine to cure the symptoms caused by the original vaccine.
