  1. Hello there, This is indeed a beautiful, beautiful song. Eby has a strong anointing over here life.
  2. Hey everyone! I trust you're all well. i started this post for two reasons: 1) To see who everyone finds themselves worshipping with the most. My spirit won't allow me to separate worship leaders into "favourites", after seeing someone's instagram post, she had a major conviction, I too now see it as an insult to the Holy Spirit. 2) If any of you beautiful people are on smule. I'll start then, shall I? I constantly find myself listening to: - Maverick City Music/TRIBL (Chandler Moore, Majesty Rowe & Naomi Raine in particular) - Briana Babineaux - Unspoken - Tonya Baker - In terms of choirs: - People & Songs - Upper Room - Donald Lawrence & Tri-City Singers - Shekinah Glory PLEASE SHARE YOURS WITH ME. 97% of the people I follow, are those who don't post secular music, it's all about our spirits saints! God bless you all
  3. Hey everyone! Happy 4th July to all who celebrate it I have a problem, this is the first time this has ever happened and I literally can't talk about it to anyone I know as I'm scared of being judged (this includes my believer friends/non-believer friends). I have shared this with one person, who ended up experiencing a similar situation so that didn't end up being so bad. I have spent a few weeks talking to someone from the office, he's the only other practicing believer (that I know of) in the building. I don't know how and when but towards the end of last week, I started to develop feelings for him, here's the cliffhanger that will stay a cliffhanger. The man is married. Married. I know my bible and what it says about marriage but regardless I wouldn't go there anyway. The point of this post is your advice on how to fizzle out these feelings whilst they're still subtle. So far, I've come to my own conclusion to just leave it in the hands of the Lord through prayer and to avoid him as much as I can, which is what I've been doing as of this morning. Haven't said more than a word to him all day. Any advice as to what else I can do please?
  4. "Okay, I dislike to use the term "favourite", when it comes to things of God but I am intrigued. What is your preferred book/scripture? What is your preferred translation? My preferred versions are: THE AMP, TPT & NIV. My preferred books are: Proverbs, Psalms & Romans My preferred scriptures are: Romans 8:18, Galatians 6:2
  5. Hi everyone, I need advice for evangelising please. I have to preach the gospel, there are no two ways about it BUT my anxiety and lack of boldness prevent me from doing so. My church and I go out evangelisng every get Saturday, I always panic and freeze on the spot. I have heard on several occasions, "Open your mouth to speak and the Holy Spirit will give you utterance", "pray for boldness". Honestly, I feel no matter how often I pray for boldness, I stay in the same spot. So here are my questions: How do you approach someone? How do you open a conversation? How do you react if someone asks you a question you don't know how to respond? I have told myself (and God) on several occasions, that I will go out and preach the gospel alone, put it into practice but anxiety and fear stop me from doing it. I need to stop letting the enemy get satisfaction out of procrastinating to do the most important task as a believer. Brothers and sisters in Christ, your prayers will be greatly appreciated. God bless you all.
  6. Thank you very much, I will pray for those behind the stories you mentioned. I guess being unequally yoked is an issue more common than we like to believe and it's not only an issue for the believer but for their children. I have heard a couple testimonies of those brought up in multi-faith families and they were in a confused state of mind, I guess God can still find a purpose in our mess but it is something that can be avoided. I don't know why I'm saying all of this when you know already lol. Thank you for your message and God bless you
  7. I completely understand where you're coming from, I guess I was making excuses to enlighten the situation. Excuses being that I am in a way just as bad, I struggle with honesty at times, impatience, anger (frustration may be a more appropriate term) and lust. You could say I was looking at it in the way of, "God sees all sin the same." Now that I am actually reflecting on this by writing it down, I see how incredibly silly my logic and reasoning is.
  8. Wow, you and @Davida have been little gems, I mean you all have been but the last two posts have thoroughly touched me. In a way, I was aware of what you were saying in regards to how the devil plays games, sometimes it's just hearing it from other people that can create an impact. God bless you both.
  9. I'm very glad I decided to write this post as everyone who has contributed has provided me with solid counsel and honestly, I'm grateful to God for you all and the time you've taken out to advise me. I have meditated on it and decided that I will do as you advised and stay clear of him and just keep him in prayer as it's the best way to go about things. I feel the need to add though: "Then perhaps an unwanted STD" that would never happen, I have been celibate for 7.5 years and there is no trap devious enough and no man tempting enough to make me go back to day one. However, everything else mentioned is spot on, I am chasing after something that could potentially do a lot of emotional and spiritual damage, I blame society lol but I'll lean more on the Holy Spirit. Thank you very much and thank you for your prayers ❤️ God bless you
  10. I agree, that's something a friend of mine always says. She's said it about a past love interest also, "you can change him!" In case you're wondering, yes she's a Christian but doesn't practice as much as she should. Every time I hear her say the words, "you can change him," I momentarily agree but I know that it's only God that can truly lead someone to salvation, even they're lead to salvation through God's people. Hope I have made sense in what I said, I feel like I haven't lol.
  11. Thank you very much, I shall pray those prayer points as well as the prayer points mentioned by the other members in the thread, God bless you
  12. Oh yes, I've seen that before but have only now properly read it. I am in utter shock, to say the least.
  13. We certainly do need to be careful. I for one thoroughly enjoyed Joyce Meyer's teachings, I even have her everyday life bible and now I am having to stick to my bible app (I do have two other bibles but the font is much too small to comfortably read and of course, study).
  14. @angels4u Thank you very much, I shall check it out. Just to confirm, by NAR, do you mean New Apostolic Reformed churches?
  15. @Davida Thank you very much for your input, my Pastor has indeed said something similar in regards to open doors, I will continue to pray on it, thank you again and God bless you
  16. Okay, so here's the thing, I know for a fact this post is going to push a few buttons as I know there is bound to be at least one person who is a member at this church who will see this. Firstly, let me start off by saying that I do not know how to test the spirits as yet and therefore I am unable to tell whether or not someone is a false prophet and so, therefore, I always conduct a google search to do a background check on the "preacher" in question - I've only recently started doing this. I think highly of Joyce Meyer but according to research, she's a false prophet. I wouldn't say I follow the teaching of Steve Furtick as I have yet to listen to one of his messages but I love, love, love Elevation Worship. According to research, he is a false prophet. I have seen online that Pastor Furtick is a big fan of rock music and it shows in his ministry, his church does look a lot like a concert venue. It just makes me question if I am in the wrong for listening and worshipping to the music of Elevation Worship. I have their songs fullness, give me faith, the King is among us and resurrecting on repeat, with a strong love for a couple others. ANOTHER EXAMPLE: Charlotte Gambill of Life Church, Bradford, UK I remember my first encounter with Charlotte's message, it was at a women's conference hosted by a popular UK Christian organisation called Premier. I loved her message and went on to attend Charlotte's own women conference several months later with empowering and uplifting messages, there was a couple of secular songs played but not half as much as I heard when I attended her conference this year. I guess I didn't hear as much secular music as I attended her conference myself this year and was always on time to hear the word, in comparison to last year when I went with a friend and we were always late. This year, music from the likes of Beyonce, Pharrell Williams etc. was played and I looked around thinking that I couldn't possibly be the only person to disagree with what was going on? Secular music at a Christian conference? I wasn't as bothered last year as I wasn't so grounded in the word and in my faith as yet but my present church has taught me how vital it is to not participate in listening and singing secular music. I guess 1 Corinthians 10:31 confirms why, "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." The issue is I love their worship team too, not half as much as I do Elevation Worship but that's beside the point. Honestly, I don't know why I even bothered to write this post. I know it's wrong to continue listening to a worship team led by a wolf in sheep's clothing. I guess like things of the world it's hard to pull away from something damaging to your spiritual walk, even more so actually. I just thought I would share my viewpoint with you all. God bless you all, Deanne
  17. I'll try to make this as brief as possible. A little under two years ago, I started talking to a colleague at work. At first, I was just simply attracted to his appearance but the more we started talking, the more my feelings developed. He comes from a Catholic background, he goes clubbing, drinks and he smokes marijuana. I can always resist the temptation to go clubbing (or pubbing should I say) but when I have been invited and I know he'll be there, I'll instantly agree to tag along. I left my job, the autumn of last year, he attended my leaving do and we were inseparable for the night, outside in the smoking area (I don't smoke by the way), next to each other in photos and on the dancefloor. I secured and left three positions after this job in question but I ended up returning to this same company office, a little over a week ago. The only difference is, I am now working in another department. My main problem is, I cannot stop thinking about him, he is constantly on my mind. I'm a little confused, I understand that God has a reason for everything he does but I don't understand why/how I ended back at the same company for my crush to resume. I understand that we must not be unequally yoked, in my mind as I am sure some believers have been in my position, I'm hopeful that he his relationship with God will blossom. I'm about 75% sure that the feeling is mutual (maybe not to my extent but there is some certainty he may feel the same way) I have prayed on it but what else should I do?
