A hilarious look at reasoning and how it can ruin you. Many times, the ideas that run through our minds can sound "good" in the moment, but when we don't consult God, things don't always turn out well.

God has set before us a choice: life and death, blessings or curses. The obvious choice is life, but so many times, we are subconsciously choosing death without even knowing it. Sickness, fear, jealousy, hurt, poverty, etc., are ways we can choose death and not realize the fullness of life that God promises. 

It is easy to think of appreciation as a "nice" subject, but appreciation can truly change your life. The more we stay in a state of gratitude, the more we open the door to blessing and close the door to the enemy. 

Our relationship with God is not meant to be ritualistic. It is intended to be fun and meaningful! Jesus Himself gives us an outline of how to pray in the gospels. 

How do you not quit the work of building God's Kingdom while you are under attack spiritually? Without fail, when Christians begin to work for the Kingdom, the enemy will attack forward progress. The enemy will start by mocking you, trying to embarrass you, and move on to a whole hoard of tactics to try to get you to stop building God's Kingdom. This teaching shows how to work together with other...

From 1 John 2:15-16, every temptation since the fall of man will fall into one of these 3 categories. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, or the boastful pride of life. Lust is any longing or strong desire from that which is forbidden. The lust of the flesh is always going to involve our basic needs and us trying to get them met apart from God's way. 

What are we to overcome as believers? Satan is the god of this world, and we are to overcome all the assignments sent against us. The root of every attack of the enemy is based in fear, and we must learn to overcome with the Word of God.

Self-pity is a magnet that draws bad things to you. It keeps you immobile, always looking inward, and rarely toward God. When God didn’t approve of Cain’s offering he got into self-pity instead of asking God where he was wrong. He continued down the road of self-pity and then self-destruction. 

It can be hard to find peace in today's world. True peace can only be found in God. But God's peace is not shaken when the world is shaking. It is the fruit of God’s Word being planted deep inside our hearts. 

Does God send evil or sickness? Does He allow sickness or evil to teach us a lesson? These are questions each of us has to have answered and settled deep within us. If we have doubts about God's character, the enemy will use them to blame God for what the devil is doing.

When every part of us does not believe that God is good, our problems can literally not be solved. Knowing that God is good is what causes the believer to keep fighting until there is victory. Without that revelation, we will give up before the battle has even started. 

It is time for the church to wake up. God is calling us to join His spiritual army. This army is one of unity and one of complete obedience to God. Peggy Joyce shares from the story of Gideon in the book of Judges. God is looking for fearless and disciplined soldiers so He can bring about the victory in a miraculous way.

Strife is not coming from God, it is from the enemy. God is not the author of confusion, disorder, or strife. When there is strife in your life, it opens the door to every evil thing.

The world wants to control the mind by gaining knowledge and power to be successful in life, but ultimately it ends with worshiping the mind and falling for a trap of the enemy. God wants our mind to be renewed to the Word of God and for us to choose with our will to walk in the Spirit and not the natural realm. This takes practice, but with the Lord, it can become a reality.

Jesus came to carry the load. Many times, we are carrying weights that Jesus promised to carry for us. Sin, sickness, and everything that came as a consequence of sin fell on Jesus on the cross. We don't need to continually pay for things that Jesus paid for on the cross. Jesus died so that we might live. He carried what we deserved to break the power of the curse. So we can live a life of freedom...

Peggy Joyce Ruth teaches 'Those Who Trust the Lord Shall Not Be Disappointed,' a message about her family's journey in learning to trust the Lord deeply with stories of the miracles that followed their trust. Also available in book form.

Important teaching for this hour. There are spiritual laws that are just as sure and reliable as physical laws. When this becomes a reality to us, we're going to start thinking through every action, every word that comes out of our mouth, through even the tone of our voice and our attitudes. We're going to realize that all of these things are causing spiritual laws to be set into motion all the ti...

When Satan sends thoughts our way, so many times, we ignore them instead of answering them with the Word. The enemy's thoughts and temptations don't just go away if we ignore them. They build and build until the enemy has us trapped. This is why it is vital to answer the enemy with the Word until we get the victory.

God is so many things to us; Our Healer, Deliverer, Protector, and the list goes on. But there is one name for God that sums up everything He is to us. He is our good Shepherd in Psalm 23. 

Believers must learn to walk in their God-given authority. God gave man authority over the earth, but we handed it over to Satan in the garden. Now, through what Jesus did on the cross, we have been given authority over satan, sin, sickness, self, and situations.

Psalm 91 should be a foundational teaching for every Believer. We have seen countless miracles come from trusting the Lord in this way. Please do the same every day, and pray Psalm 91 over you and your loved ones. It can save your life. Even if you are in the middle of something terrible, speak God's promise until you see the situation turn around.
