Indwelled by the Holy Spirit at the moment of salvation, the followers of Jesus Christ cannot be demon-possessed, but we can be demonically influenced. Scripture instructs Christians to "...be filled with the Spirit." Believers tap into the awesome power of the Holy Spirit with us by surrendering every aspect of our lives to God's sovereign control. When the Holy Spirit is allowed to have complete authority over our lives, we are no longer vulnerable to the evil influences of Satan's demons that seek to wreck our lives. Give is all to God and trust Him to guard and guide you!

  Greet Each Day with Gratitude and Gladness ( March 18, 2024) At the start of and throughout each day, we should all resolve to rejoice with gratitude and gladness for the blessing and beauty of every moment we’re given by a gracious, loving God. Probably penned by King David, the psalmist of ancient Israel, Psalm 118 reminds us that every day is a gift of God that should be celebrated with joy and thanksgiving. Familiarly, the psalmist wrote in verse 24: “This is the day the  Lord  has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. ” Each new day of life is a fresh expression of God’s boundless grace and love for you and me, and we are to receive it with joyful gladness. The L ORD wants us to live each day to the fullest, recognizing that He is the source of all good gifts, and using the time, talents, and resources that He has provided to each of us to honor and glorify Him. Whether the day brings joy or sorrow, we can rejoice that God is working all circumstances to be...

Jesus said in John 16:33, "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Despite the troubles and trials that are a reality of life in a fallen world, faith in Jesus Christ gives every believer ultimate triumph over their temporal earthly circumstances and the assurance of an eternal heavenly home in our Lord's presence. By God's grace through trust in Jesus' supreme sacrifice for our sins, we are reborn spiritually and become new creations in Christ with transformed hearts that desire to love and serve and renewed minds that seek to do God's will, not our own. Good will ultimately overcome evil; faith in Christ is the victory that overcomes the world! Paul said in reference to Jesus in Romans 8:37, "Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us."

  Feed My Sheep ( June 14, 2024) “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.” (John 10:11) Just as Jesus came not into this world to be served, but to serve mankind, we have been commissioned to humbly serve our Savior by spreading the gospel. The Good Shepherd has commanded all who have chosen to follow Him to “Feed My sheep.” (John 21:17) If we love Jesus and put Him above our earthly endeavors, the earnest desire of our heart should be to obey His call to feed each other spiritually! “ If you love Me, keep My commandments. ” (John 14:15) After serving His hungry disciples a hearty breakfast of bread and fish roasted on an open seaside fire, the risen L ORD Jesus restored Peter to fellowship after he had thrice denied Christ prior to His crucifixion. Welcoming the impulsive fisherman back into His tender mercies, Jesus asked Peter three times, “Do you love me?” Each time Peter responded, “ Yes, Lord; You know that I love You. ” after wh...
