Satan knows God’s people are destroyed, if we lack the knowledge of God’s word. In Hosea 4:6 NLT God speaks to Israel and to us when He says, “My people are destroyed, because they don't know Me.” Knowing God is more than just going to church or reading our Bible occasionally, it’s about seeking Him daily—morning, noon and night, whatever it takes, until we come into full knowledge and relationship with our Heavenly Father. (Ephesians 4:13) As a result, when trials, tribulations and fiery afflictions come, we will no longer be like immature children. We won't be tossed and blown away by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced, when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth. (Ephesians 4:14 NLT) I encourage you to be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might, by putting on all of God's armor, so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. (Ephesians 6:11) Pray This Prayer With Me: Father, thank...

“All Things” that we do and celebrate comes from the struggles, test and trials of life. (James 1:3-4) Only our actions towards these events determine our successes or failures. ( Romans 4:20) “All Things” can be accomplished, if our reliance is on God alone who supplies everything we need to carry out His plan for our life. (Romans 8:28-29) I encourage you to motivate yourself by not fearing failure, thinking the best and not the worst and by going in the strength of the LORD and in the power of His Might! (1 Samuel 30:6, Ephesians 6:10)    “My Grace Is Sufficient For You, My Power Is Made Perfect In Weakness!"
