Christ is God:

Christ is God:

to many Christians this has been a dead article of faith,
held fast and proved out of Scripture,
but without any living influence on the soul.

To the true believer it is one of the deepest and most precious truths for the nourishment of the inner life.

Christ is God:
the soul worships Him as the Almighty One,
able to do a divine work in the power of divine omnipotence.

Christ is God:
even as God works in all nature from within, and in secret,
so the soul trusts Christ as the everywhere present and the Indwelling One,
doing His saving work in the hidden depths of its being.

Christ is God:
in Him we come into living contact with the person and life of God Himself.

The truth lies at the foundation of our Epistle [Hebrews], and the Christian life it would build up:

Christ is God.

- Andrew Murray, The Holiest of All

A Real-life Deliverance Account

My sister and I had just done a deliverance on my mum yesterday (Tue, 28 Nov 2023).  It started when she kept vomitting and feeling very giddy and we laid hands upon her as usual according to the Word for divine healing.  However, it merely gave some relief to her, unlike other times as after a while, the extreme nauseousness and giddiness attacked her again. Then right around this point the demon took over her mind (soul) somewhat partially. The symptoms was that she looked dazed and kept repeating over and over again a number of questions like "Why am I sitting here" etc.  At this point when we talked to her, she did not remember anything that she did for the whole day (current time around 4pm+). It is very much like how a person with dementia would behaved and conversed.  To keep the long story short,  we took 2-3 hrs of casting out the demons in her and she is well now. Fast forward, It appeared that the demons came from H***i B***r (American Missionary) who came to our s

Absolute Surrender: Peter's Repentance

Absolute Surrender By Andrew Murray Peter's Repentance You may be a very earnest, godly, devoted believer, in whom the power of the flesh is yet very strong. That is a very solemn truth.  Peter, before he denied Christ, had cast out devils and had healed the sick; and yet the flesh had power, and the flesh had room in him.  Oh, beloved, we have to realize that it is just because there is so much of that self-life in us that the power of God cannot work in us as mightily as God is willing that it should work.  Do you realize that the great God is longing to double His blessing, to give tenfold blessing through us?  But there is something hindering Him, and that something is a proof of nothing but the self-life.  We talk about the pride of Peter, and the impetuosity of Peter, and the self-confidence of Peter. It all rooted in that one word, self.  Christ had said, “Deny self,” and Peter had never understood, and never obeyed; and every failing came out of that. What a solemn thought,

A word of Knowledge: Stop depicting the Holy Spirit as a dove

A word of Knowledge Stop depicting the Holy Spirit as a dove Luke 3:22 KJV And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. Many people, if not everyone, have misunderstood this verse. They pictured the Holy Spirit coming in the shape of a dove coming down upon Jesus. No, this is not what God is telling us at all.  What purpose does it serve to tell us the Holy Spirit looks like a dove where He obviously does not look like that?  God is not the author of foolishness and  confusion.  We are made in God's image, therefore, God the Holy Spirit's bodily shape is one that resembles that of a man, just as God the Son and God the Father. Now, let us read the verse again slowly: "And the Holy Ghost descended in a BODILY SHAPE like a dove upon him" ...in what bodily shape? It is of course in the shape of a man! And the Holy Ghost DESCENDED in a bodily shape LIKE A
