    Free to Rest

    It is evident from reading the Bible that our heavenly Father does not want us worried, anxious, and upset. Faith in Him and His provision means that we often are called to walk in the spiritual realm, believing what the Word says, rather than what we see. I'm not sure why it's so hard to...

    Keep Your Eye on the Prize

    I don't know of anyone who enjoys dealing with problems or going through trials. I myself sure would like everything to be perfect and peaceful at all times. That's why James reminded us: John and Paul wrote that we should run the race with the assurance that we will ultimately win. We...

    His Healing Power

    Following are some excerpts from Dr. Lilian B. Yeoman's book, His Healing Power. I read it several years ago and thought some of you might enjoy it too, as well as be inspired:

    Be Convinced You Cannot Lose

    Be convinced you cannot lose. I have a confession. This is not easy to admit: as I sit here typing, my head hurts. A lot. Actually, today makes the fourth day of what I consider to be severe pain, and I’m really ready to receive the healing I know Jesus died to give me. More than just...

    Has praying "in the spirit" made a difference in your life?

    I'm wondering if anyone has noticed any changes in their lives or circumstances once they are baptized in the spirit and begin praying in the spirit (or praying in tongues). I believe Jesus sent us the Holy Spirit, which is the POWER of God to work in and through our lives here and now on...

    The Lion and The Light

    Last week a lot of things went wrong. I failed in several areas and ended up with several strained relationships. Some of it was my fault; some was not. I called on God's grace to fix the situation, not knowing what (if anything) I could do on my own. Asked for His guidance. Asked for...

    The Spirit Part

    Walking today, praying, I realized suddenly just who, what, I am: I am part physical, part spiritual. I am part earthly body, part spiritual being. I am part human, part of God. It was an amazing realization. Just as Jesus was flesh and God, so am I, now, as His child. Paul made many...

    The Destruction of Strongholds

    A few of us were discussing on another forum, the victories we have enjoyed and the awesome power that is inherent in the Word of God. Specifically powerful to us in our daily lives are those scriptures which we really grab hold of, keep in our hearts, meditate on, and believe in. The main...

    Peace Within

    I've spent a lot of my time wondering. Not an imaginative, hopeful kind of wonder, but an ill at ease wonder with a sense of dread. Wondering what might go wrong, wondering what I should do, wondering where I should be, wondering if I should do something else, wondering when the other shoe...

    The Prayer of Faith

    Are you a Christian? If you are, you're probably doing what you think Christians are supposed to do, like seeking to do His will: praying, reading the Bible and really wanting in your heart to follow Him. And the Holy Spirit does guide us, if we listen. But sometimes we get caught up in...

    The Effect of Righteousness is Peace

    According to God's plan, the effect, or result of our receiving righteouenss, is peace. Peace in our lives, and peace between us and God. Guilt, anxiety, lack, earning our keep, punishment. We humans have been taught from a very early age about give and take, and about negative...

    "Demonic Plagues"

    I have had repeated attacks lately in different areas, mostly financial, and this morning during my prayer walk I heard "peace and prosperity". This is a subject I have studied, but figured I needed to get out my books and go over it again... Then this evening as I was driving home, praying...

    A Word from God

    I was walking and praying one morning a few days ago... asking for direction concerning the financial situation which seems to be negatively affecting the entire world. I was wondering what I should do personally, as well as what steps Christians should take: What jobs will be stable? Are...

    Leviathan

    I had a dream last night that MAY mean nothing, I'm not sure. In the dream I was walking and could see the place where I lived in the dream (I don't know the place and have never lived there). The rear of my house/apartment had a balcony overlooking a small river or canal, and as I looked, I...

    All spiritual wisdom; All power; Redemption

    Paul prayed this prayer: that believers might have the knowledge of God's will through spiritual wisdom... that they might be able to please God by growing in the knowledge of Him... that they might be strong in all power... to have patience and joyfully give thanks for His light... As the...

    The 5th Time

    Several years ago God spoke directly to my spirit, telling me that I/we (His body/church) are to work on His behalf in the earth. Since then, I have been. I've been standing against the enemy and enforcing the Kingdom of God as best I can. It has not always been easy. I've had some...

    Turn Back the Battle At the Gate

    Thankfully, I do learn from my mistakes. A few weeks ago my daughter had a little cold; I prayed for her, rebuked the illness, commanded her body to receive its healing, and a few days later she was fine. When my throat started hurting a day later, I honestly thought "Well, it wasn't a very...

    Being "Right": Open the Gift

    There is a word often used throughout the Bible which needs to be better understood by God's kids: Righteousness. Being righteous means being in right standing, or accepted, especially in the presence of God, our Father. Simply put, it means "being right". It seems that many Christians have...

    Who I Am

    It is interesting that many mornings I wake with the thought: What can I do for God today? Usually I want it to be something BIG... forgetting that the small things like being kind to others and loving others are the 'big' acts that Jesus asks of us. But lately God has been dealing with me...

    A Spiritual Battle

    I'm not sure this is the right section for this, but I really wanted to share what happened to me today. To begin, yesterday morning I sensed a move by the Holy Spirit within me... sort of a surge. I wasn't sure what it was about and began praying in the spirit more, pretty much all day...
