A word of Wisdom: Love Yourself?

A word of Wisdom:

Love Yourself?


The devil says,

Love yourself first, 

Enjoy life to the fullest and 

Follow your heart's desires.


But our Lord Jesus said,

Matthew 16:24-27 KJV

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, 

If any man will come after me, 

let him deny himself, 

and take up his cross, 

and follow me. 

[25] For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. 


[26] For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? 

or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? 

[27] For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.


How do you actually live out your life in reality?


Are you really following after our Lord Jesus Christ or are you really following after the devil's plan for you?


Matthew 6:33-34 KJV

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 

[34] Take therefore no thought for the morrow: 

for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. 

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.


Repent and submit to God.


James 4:7-10 KJV

Submit yourselves therefore to God. 

Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 

[8] Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. 

Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. 

[9] Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 

[10] Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.


Luke 16:13 KJV

No servant can serve two masters: 

for either he will hate the one, and love the other; 

or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. 

Ye cannot serve God and mammon.


Who have you been serving all these days of your life? 

Look in the mirror.

Be honest with yourself.


1 Thessalonians 5:5-8 KJV

Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. [6] Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. 

[7] For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. 

[8] But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.


Romans 12:1-3 KJV

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 

[2] And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 

[3] For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

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...

Contending With the Devil

Contending With the Devil By Don Dickerman, People, Pigs and Principalities I think Christians make a mistake when they believe they have been given authority to challenge these powers in the heavenly realm.  I will simply ask,  “If we have that authority, why then does it not work? And why limit it to a particular location?”  If through a human being’s declaration to principalities and powers we can change their actions, why not extend it to the whole earth?  I have never seen a positive result from Christians engaging in spiritual warfare with heavenly realm powers. I have seen the opposite happen with churches dissolving, ministries crumbling, and individuals suffering sickness and multitudes of difficulties.  Our God-given authority has to do with individuals—it is to pray for nations, not against principalities and powers.  Jesus sent His disciples to the people, not against heavenly realm powers.  He did not bind the evil prince of Jerusalem; ins...

A word of Knowledge: Easter?

Image
A word of Knowledge: Easter? The Origin of Easter Easter {or the feast of Ishtar) actually originated as an ancient pagan celebration of the spring equinox and the renewal of life. In Christianity, the day was dedicated to observing the resurrection of Jesus Christ, celebrated around the time of the Jewish Passover. However, it is the Resurrection Day we are celebrating and nothing at all to do with the pagan day Easter.  The Church has sadly been making the grievous error of celebrating the "Resurrection Day"  as "Easter" .  Let us look at how the word Easter was used in Scripture. Acts 12:3-4 KJV And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) [4] And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.  This is the only place where the word "Easter" was used and i...
