Who is your real enemy?

Ephesians 6:12

12:

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powere, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

So often we place our anger on the people that hurt us. When or real enemy is Satan the people are nothing more than the tool he used to do his work. If we as a people would just get good and mad at the devil instead of others and make up our minds that we were going to make him wish he had never ever touched our hearts. We can do this by witnessing to others by spreading the gospel by showing love to others. In doing so Satan will regret ever causing us the pain that caused us to rise up and fight him back!

New Feature

I meant to start this yesterday and just forgot. But for those of you who would like to read the Bible through this year I will post daily what you need to read to accomplish this. There will be times because of my job that I might miss a day because there are times when I work 24 hours and even 48 hours straight. I am allowed to sleep at work so it's not that hard to do. If I miss a day or so I will back track so you know for sure you are up to speed, but it really only takes about 15 minutes a day and you will be on target.

The Daily Verse is a blessing!

This little blog is blessing me and is drawing me closer to God. I am noticing more and more it is having an affect on me. I think it is because sadly this is the first time in 21 years of being a Christian that I am in the word every day aside from a year when my daughter was first born and I read her the Bible all the way through that year. I would love to know if you have been blessed

I just want to praise you Lord

Lord as you know I just put my precious daughter to bed, and I was on my way to my bedroom, when I just got the feeling I needed to stop and give publicly give thanks to you. So Father I praise your wonderful sweet heavenly holy name! You are the king of kings and the lord of lords. Surely you are a name above every every name oh Lord and you are worthy of the small sacrifice of praise. You are so good Lord I thank you so much for every blessing, for every breath you have so graciously given me. Lord I thank you for your kindness and gentle mercies Father! I love you Lord and I lift my voice let it be a sweet sweet sound in this place! Glory to your name.

The Love of Money

1 Timothy 6:10,11

10:

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

11:

But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.


I think it is interesting that wealth itself is not said to be evil only the love of money. The love of money catches your emotions away. After all the Bible also says that where your treasure is there will your heart be also. Now you can have wealth and that not be your treasure (that is of course very rare). We must seek after godly things not worldly things! We get so caught up in possessions that we go in debt over our heads and then have to work every hour we can to survive which robs us of our peace, joy, our health and of course time with our loved ones. Remember friends to see ye first the kingdom of Heaven and all these other things will be added unto you.
