Word for the day!

Acts 4:10-12 NIV
[10] … It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. [11] Jesus is “ ‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’ [12] Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved .”

Satan's Judgment and his lie

The power of the Holy Spirit that was/is given to me, is GREATER than the power of Satan. Satan has No Power over us unless we give it to him! We are sealed in Christ Jesus and protected by his spirit. Satan will lie to us and tell us that we are defeated, and try to make us fear, but the power we have to resist him through the Holy Spirit is greater than his. Satan's power is limited, but the power of the Holy Spirit that lives with and within us is unlimited! It is the same power that spoke our universe into existence and raised Jesus from the dead. Those of us in Christ, belong to him. We are sealed an protected by His power.

Don't let Satan deceive you!

Keep watch

We would be negligent if we didn't study God's word and with diligence and decrement, watch for the things that he told us to be aware of and watch for.
(I don't currently have time to write all that I want to on this topic, but I have a lot on my heart on the subject that I want to talk about, and I figure that I need to start somewhere. I say that in case you are reading this, and it is ruff or incomplete. Please know it is a work in progress. It flows like it does because I probably made a note while in my morning commute. I am more worried about jotting down thoughts 'before I slam into the car in front of me ', I'll go back as I can and tidy things up. Please leave comments! I want to hear from you, whether you disagree or agree. I would love to use your comments and our dialogue in this section.)

John 16:2 (NIV)
...in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God.

(Does this bring any middle-eastern religion to mind? Hint, sounds like fizbomb.)

Prayer for America

Heavenly Father,

We come before you today to ask Your forgiveness and to seek Your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, "Woe to those who call evil good,," but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.
We confess:
We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it Pluralism.
We have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism.
We have endorsed perversion and called it alternative lifestyle.
We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.
We have killed our unborn and called it choice.
We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem.
We have abused power and called it politics.
We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.
We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.
Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free.
Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent to direct us to the center of your will. I ask it in the Name of Your Son, the living Savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

(Pastor Joe Wright)
