The Word of God was revealed during specific times, moments, and events. Some parts of Scripture are relevant to us as we live through them, while others pertain to those who experienced the events Paul wrote about. However, we must never lose sight of the fundamental teachings of Jesus.

To do or want to do things for God is always a good thing. However, we have this mystery in our flesh, where our hearts can deceive us into thinking we are capable, but only God knows the depth of our hearts. Jesus asked Peter, "Do you love me?" and Peter responded with, "I am willing to die for you," but he ended up denying Christ and then the rooster crowed. We must be honest...

A letter written by James: the last and final few verses of James 5. "But let your 'yes' mean 'yes’, and your 'no' mean 'no’, so that you won't fall under judgment." Have faith in what you say "yes" to, and do not be double-minded in your ways. If you are, do not expect anything. www.outcastfory.com

A letter written by James: A warning to the rich. Being rich is not a sin, but the love of money is what corrupts a person from within. God calls us to be humble and not to worry about the day of tomorrow, but it is impossible to be present if one loves money. . . www.outcastfory.com

A letter written by James: We are created to be in the present. It is easy to try to plan for tomorrow, but the fact is that we do not know what tomorrow will bring. . . www.outcastfory.com

A letter written by James: “What is the source of wars and fights among you? Don't they come from your passions that wage war within you? You desire and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and wage war. You do not have because you do not ask. You ask and don't receive because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures. www.outcastfory....

A letter written by James: Wisdom is a gift that can only be given by God. The wisdom from above does not come with age, but is granted to those who are humble and submitted to God. However, a problem can arise if one starts to trust in earthly wisdom. www.outcastfory.com

A letter written by James: The tongue, a small piece of our body, is able to destroy nations and speak life into people. The tongue is what we use to speak, and whatever is in our hearts, the tongue will utter, which will direct our outcomes.

A letter written by James: favoritism is easy to discern. As followers of Christ, through our ears we hear and we believe, but many walk with dead faith, for the Word says we will be known by our fruits.www.outcastfory.com

A letter written by James: the faith that one has produces endurance. That faith is a measurement of your walk with God. The one who has endurance is mature and complete, lacking nothing. Let’s not just be hearers of the word but rather doers. • •   http://www.outcastfory.com

One of the most frequently used Bible verses, which is often taken out of context, is "faith without works is dead." What was James really talking about there? If even the wicked feed the homeless and take care of people, what was he truly referring to? The only way to find out is to read the whole book and consider it in context. www.outcastfory.com

The young ones are the future, and we must teach them what it means to carry a sword and how to use it. For sin is becoming normal day by day. But those who build on a rock will always overcome sin. . . www.outcastfory.com

God has a plan for all those who seek Him—a plan for good and not for evil. But how can God give you what He has predestined for you if your heart is filled with your own delusions? God is a good Father, and He will strip those delusions from your heart to prepare you for His glory! • • http://www.outcastfory.com

Every living person has thoughts, but some of these thoughts are not entirely their own. We live in this world, yet we are not the only ones influencing what goes on behind the scenes. There are other beings that can lead us to give in to their perverted desires. So, how do we distinguish between our own thoughts and those that are influenced by these external forces? www,outcastfory.com

Faith is what keeps us going; God is the artist of life. However, the moment one takes their eyes away from God, one becomes the artist of their own life and starts to idolize it. Keeping your eyes on God is a reflection of faith. www.outcastfory.com

The belly of oneself is never satisfied with what it consumes. It desires what it feels and is pleased with the choices one feeds it. The one who lives in vanity is never satisfied with itself, for every day it chases what it feeds on… validation from others.  www.outcastfory.com

Think about the chaos if one of the most popular apps is suddenly taken away… But what if one of the most read books in the world, the Bible, is also taken from us? The Bible is crucial for every believer; it’s their guiding light. If it were ever taken away, it wouldn’t just cause a small stir—it would set off a massive chain reaction that would shake the entire body of Christ. Millions would fee...

Hold on to God until the end, for times will come when many will be deceived. Meditation on His word and spending time with God daily is your supply line. For His saints, time will be shortened; let’s remain strong during this shortening of time. www.outcastfory.com

There seems to be confusion within the body of Christ about being bound by a generational curse. But didn’t Christ make a way for all chains to be broken? Are we not a new creation? Or are we confusing generational curse with consequences? www.outcastfory.com

To hold a grudge is to declare your superior to the others. For Christ made it clear that all are on an equal playing field. However, it seems that there are those who remain on a throne of grudges… But God will repay those sitting on a throne of grudges. Can you come off? www.outcastfory.com

Are compassion and feelings the same thing? Can one be compassionate and not feel emotional while doing good for a person? Or does one have to feel something in order to take action and be compassionate? www.outcastfory.com

Gluttony isn’t always just about food; it can also be applied to many areas of our lives. God knows the perfect portion for your life, but sometimes we have a tendency to ask for more than we need. God may grant your request, but just know that if that double portion of what you asked for comes, it may come with a price. www.outcastfory.com

We subscribe to almost everything in our lives. We can subscribe and unsubscribe whenever we want. The choice is ours. But why do followers treat their walk with God as a subscription, coming and going whenever they feel like it? Is God a seasonal thing, or is He your life? www.outcastfory.com

The desires of the heart are always present in our lives, sometimes for good and sometimes for bad. Along your walk with God, checkpoints will present themselves in front of you. Free will is always in our hands, but the perfect and acceptable will of God can only be taken when one is dwelling with Christ. www.outcastfory.com
