    Freed from demonic stranglehold! Praise Jesus!

    Hi there, So when I was a rebellious teenager, I turned to evil music. Even though I had faith, I found myself drifting away - because of the struggles my family was going through (finance, divorce, etc.). The evil music stopped me from caring what was happening to my life. Then, instead of...

    I feel a little uncertain, calling myself a 'newbie' - but I need help (and once upon a time, I *was* a newbie!)

    Hi there, So there is this dilemma I am in, about my relationship to God. I know relationship is important, but if its important, then how you define it is important too, right? So I have this understanding, in my head, that I have my side to the relationship I have with God, and God has His...

    If you have time for a little prayer, please pray for my Mum - Mum has nausea (I'm hoping it will pass, Lord willing)

    Hi there, So yes, if you could just pray a short prayer, for my Mum's nausea, I'm sure that would have a great effect. It started this morning. I rebuke the Devil for confusing my Mum and I plead the Blood of the Lamb over her inner ear, In Jesus' Name Amen. Thanks guys, you really are there...

    True repentance, leads to godly sorrow (selah)

    Hi there! So I wanted to discuss the Cross for a moment. You know that Jesus said "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death" (Matthew 26:38)? Think for a moment with me, why did Jesus say that? It is because our Cross is a burden. In other words, if you are taking up your Cross, you will...

    Jesus doesn't just become 'sin', He puts sin out of reach (selah)

    Hi there, So this is something that will certainly enhance your understanding of the Cross, if not sin and temptation. What I want you to do is look at the Cross. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:21 "He who knew no sin, became sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God". Now...

    We have to hang in there, with the Holy Spirit - our conviction now, will grow and as it grows, it will change (help?)

    Hi there, So I have conviction in the Holy Spirit, which is great. However, I am concerned that the message of the Holy Spirit not be lost, as we enter in to the tribulation. Jesus promised the Father would shorten the days, which is great. However, what we need is a stronger conviction. I...

    The Rapture is a conviction that the Holy Spirit, has overcome sin, evil and oppression - that imparts the Word of God within to do something similar

    Hi there, So I am just teasing out what the Rapture means. The idea in theology is that the Rapture is an event, that separates those that have it from those that don't. There is some truth to this. But what is actually happening? My understanding is that the Rapture is the birthing of a...

    Praise forum needs closed thread (Nature declares God's glory)

    Hi there, I get that you can't have debate in a praise forum. But how can you have a praise forum, without a thread about the Glory of God in Nature? I therefore ask for permission to start such a thread (I will specify that there should be no debate?). Thankyou for your concern, Gottservant.

    I stopped striving with people in the world, now I am spiritually starving (to get what God wants for me - prayer?)

    Hi there, So for a long time I have been striving with the people of the world, wanting favour, wanting fame. Ostensibly, I wanted the attention for the truth, but that was really a cover for my own ego. Realistically I was going to grab all the attention, whatever the truth was. I don't think...

    He was made sin for us, yes, but how hard will it be: for Him to return to being without sin? (sinning?)

    Hi there, So I had a simple thought: how hard will it be, for Jesus to return to being without sin? The concept is, becoming sin went in one direction - toward God - whereas returning to being without sin, goes beyond God. Jesus does not want us to stay where we are; one day we will have to...

    The Great White Throne is within you (look inside?)

    Hi there, So I just did a simple mental trick, I asked myself "where is the Great White Throne, relative to where I am on Earth now?" and I looked, and I realised that it was within me! We are not doing the things that will get God praise, because we are selfish; we are doing these things...

    Say a quick prayer: I'm being asked to consider moving out (and I don't want to), and I am struggling with scammers

    Hi there, So yes, I am being asked to consider moving out and I don't want to. The Lord said "do not go from house to house" and I would rather not! Also, I am struggling with scammers - they pretended to be working for my disability service and are trying to take money from my account. Thanks.

    "My strength is made perfect in weakness" but there are different kinds of weakness? (strong?)

    Hi there, So I am writing this for my own sake, if nothing else - I need to understand the Lord's strength. My understanding is that the Lord is strong, and there is no other. But He said "My Strength is made perfect in weakness", so there is a relationship to weakness that needs to be...

    The anti-christ brings together the power of all the other anti-christs; the false prophet scatters the power of the Holy Spirit (tested?)

    Hi there, I just felt directed to say something simple about the anti-christ. In Revelation it is clear that he is not alone, but is accompanied by other people like him. This is part of the reason he is so slippery to identify. The reality is there is nothing really different about the...

    God never calls something "finished", while people are still suffering (suffering much?)

    Hi there, So this is a simple lesson, that can make it easier to relate to God and the trials of this life. The lesson is this: God does not call something "finished" while people are still suffering. Now, this probably pricks your ears up, because Jesus said "it is finished" on the cross - my...

    Reading the parable of the Sower, as a parable about the Holy Spirit (open?)

    Hi there, So this might open up your thinking about the Holy Spirit: the parable of the Sower, can be interpreted as being about the Holy Spirit. We typically think that the Word of God can be about anything, that there are some who receive it and some who don't. But strictly speaking, the...

    Don't replace a plank, with a greater plank! (plank?)

    Hi there, So I just had this really simple thought and for my own sake if no-one else's, I thought would just meditate on it for a moment. The thought is this: Jesus said "don't try to take the speck out of your brother's eye, when look! A plank is in your own eye" (Gospels, from memory); now...

    Learning how the new body works (exercising?)

    Hi there, So I just wanted to share a simple thought: learning how the new body works, is a "thing". As a "thing" we can either do it well, or not. What governs how well we do it, is how well we develop in relation to our "new" faith, on Earth. If we neglect faith on Earth, how will we be...

    The Gospel will be quickened and re-scattered (eyes on the future?)

    Ok right, So this is a very simple observation about how the Gospel is able to be more expertly interpreted, more faithfully delivered. What I am hoping for here, is that you will open your mind up to the idea that there is a true way for the Gospel to be received, that differs for almost...

    Jesus had the Greatest Will to Live, of any one (One?)

    Hi there, So just to give you something, that will help you relate to Christ: Jesus was the One with the greatest will to live, compared to any Man. It was through this will to live, that He learned to heal and deliver. There was mastery in this, in the end, for He lived so effectively for God...
