Are you ready for warfare? Or are you already in spiritual warfare unprepared? God has given us powerful weapons for spiritual warfare. In and of ourselves we could never defeat the enemy, but with God and with the weapons He has given us, we can win the battle.

The devil and the world are constantly training us to see ourselves as victims. Anytime we view ourselves as a victim we have received the very thing the enemy is using to trap us. We cannot be an overcomer and a victim at the same time. The choice is ours.

The Old Testament stories shadow the New. The mantle of Elijah foreshadows John the Baptist and the coming of Christ.

Joy is the Lord's strength for these chaotic times. Do you see Joy as an emotion? As long as you see Joy as an emotion you will continue to let it slip through your fingertips. Joy is not an emotion; it is a character trait of God. Learn how to stay in the joy God has given you.

Are you fighting depression? The enemy has an organized attack planned to bring each one of us down. It starts with subtle thoughts and builds until we have been taken down. Many times we don't even realize what has happened. But there are steps we can take to overcome the plan of the enemy.

Do you know the Holy Spirit as a person? As a friend? God is wanting to reveal more of who the Holy Spirit is. When Jesus left the earth, He sent the Holy Spirit to fill and walk with every believer. The Holy Spirit is a powerful Helper who wants to partner with us to do the impossible - daily.

Do you know our Thanksgiving Heritage in America? Jamestown and Plymouth were both early settlements. One town was only after gold and greed, and they paid the price. The other was sent on a mission by God and considered God in everything they did. God blessed them every step of the way.

From Psalm 103. King David tells his soul to bless God. Everything within us can bless God if we require it of ourselves. Whatever attitude flows from our heart is what our life will consist of. Once our soul truly blesses God, we are opened to the benefits that come from God.

In a way, we are what we eat. The type of food we put into our body has an effect on our body. In a more true sense, the thoughts we continually think create the person we are. We have to be renewed in the spirit of our mind to become what God envisions.

There is much talk about suffering in the body of Christ, but what is biblical suffering? Is it suffering from sickness, disease, or even loved ones dying? Or is it something else entirely?

Appreciation is a principle that can change our lives. The more we stay in a state of continuous appreciation, the more the door is open to blessings from God and closed to the enemy. It can be normal to stay thankful throughout life.

(Our apologies for the audio issues. This teaching was recorded on a cassette tape many years ago.) A large portion of Jesus' ministry on earth was casting out demons. Do you remember any Old Testament stories of people being delivered? In the Old Testament and even today, the enemy remains hidden and able to cause much mischief in our lives. But, 1 John 3:8 says that Jesus came to destroy the wor...

Peggy Joyce Ruth explains the book of Esther in the Old Testament and how we can trust God no matter what situation we face.

In any area we have continual problems, we have wrong thinking. We all search to find our identity, our purpose, and acceptance. But any wrong thinking in these foundational areas will cause issues.

Many people do not realize the Kingdom of God is tangible now. Roman 14:17 says the kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. God is building his kingdom inside of us as we pursue His peace.

Many years ago, as a young mother, Peggy Joyce attempted to witness to her neighbor only to end up questioning her own faith. The next eight years were filled with paralyzing fears and depression. Most pastors and the psychological world had given up entirely, but God had a different plan. (Also available in book form, Tormented 8 Years and Back.)

As we learned last week, the Bible is Jesus' Will left for believers, His family still on earth. But just because something is God's Will doesn't mean it automatically happens. We as we believers have to take hold of His Will.

Have many of you have witnessed the reading of a will? It is the will and wishes of the one departing the earth of what they wish to leave to their relatives still on earth. In this same sense, the Bible is Jesus' will left for believers, His family still on earth.

Are you more similar to King Saul or King David? The carnal Christian will be influenced by the world, their reasoning, and fleshly desires. A spirit led Christian reacts to different obstacles in life by overcoming them. (Our apologies for the audio issues.)
