That is tough... young kids are so impressionable... I've found from personal experience though when I was growing up that parents are the ones who impress the kids the most...

Xan, make it ABSOLUTELY clear what you think of her being concerned in such ways so young, what you think of clothes like that, and what you think of the people who wear them. If she's old enough to be concerned and fascinated by those things, she's probably old enough to get a healthy dose of reality from you. However, she is still only five, there is probably some call for discretion in some areas, but be blunt. The world this day is sucking our kids in... it may mean we have to hit them harder with the truth than the world is tempting them with evil.

I am being blunt with her.  I also let her know how beautiful, smart, and how much fun she is.  And people who see girls who dress like that do not think of their brains or personality.  I stress the importance with her that as beautiful as she is, it is more important for others to see her for the smart, funny kid that she is and not for what she looks like.  She seems to understand, but it gets difficult when her 74yo great-grandma thinks she looks cute in skimpy outfits.  I know someone is going to suggest I say something to great-grandma.  Believe me, I have! ???

Well said, Jipsah! And this applies to ALL fictional magic and fantasy. We should all be much much more concerned about our unsaved neighbors and friends and family... :angel:

If we are ignorant enough to let our children read the HP books or watch the HP movie, then we are not doing our Christian duty of protecting and informing our children. Harry Potter is teaching our kids that witchcraft is OK and also teaching them that a mark (the lightning bolt) on the forehead is a cool thing. I've seen them interview kids on the news about this movie. Many of the kids would have the mark drawn or painted on their foreheads. Need I say more ?? :angel:

Biscuit~Hey~I agree with you...

I believe the Lord is the same Yesterday, Today and Forever...

Deut 18:9-13

9When you enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. 10Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, 11or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. 12Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD, and because of these detestable practices the LORD your God will drive out those nations before you. 13You must be blameless before the LORD your God.

My sons grandmother read every single HP book....and is waiting on the new one to read to him....he went and seen the movie at the theater....he really enjoyed himself....I allowed him to hear the story and to see the movie...while at the same time making sure that he knew it was make believe and that people who practiced that were absolutely not right...he has some figurines on his windowsill....he has a couple of cards....we have the HP dvd...and guess what?...he has truly watched it once...he has never watched again all the way through...my point, if you converse with your child and help them to understand what they are watching...you will be ok...my child did not become obsessed...he does not play at being HP...how a child reacts to movie, book, tv is totally upon the parent if you raise a stable God loving child he or she will be emotionally able to watch (within reason of course) movies that are for entertainment only...I'm not saying deluge your child with whatever pops up on the screen...always be diligent...blessings to all....

If you are not familiar with evil spirits, let me explain something to you.. whenever you open a DOOR for the enemy (Harrry Potter-which is witchcraft, sorcery which is strictly forbidden by the BIBLE), either for you OR your children, the enemy has a right to go right on through it. (Evil will enter your children's minds, heart, spirit..)....These evil spirits can lie dormant for a time. The enemy will convince you that it is HARMLESS the enemy will tell you that it's great because your children are reading!!! Great their getting good grades, but you ARE SACRIFICING THEIR SOULS!!!!!

I will never allow my children to read the Harry Potter books or see the movies. I will not be responsible for exposing my children to witchraft and possible demonic possession..

Anyone who reads this, you are warned!! So, laugh if you want, listen to the enemy's voice, and when you find your children are casting spells on you and their friends, and entertaining evil spirits, it may be difficult to find someone to 1st, beleive you and 2nd to help you.....

I pray that you will choose to listen to THE HEAVENLY FATHER and his WORD, and keep yourself and your children away from WITCHRAFT and evil spirits...

Yes, we have authority over evil spirits. When they are trying to harm us. Not when we voluntarily open our homes up to them!

This is the way I see it, I have thrown away many toys, many movies, many books that I later learned were the 'satan's toys".. I would much rather lose 100.00 (pluck out my eye) then get to heaven and THE FATHER ask me, was it worth 100.00 to sacrifice your children's souls??

The WORD says it is better to enter heaven without an eye or a hand, etc.. then with all our pieces, go to hell.

YAHWEH BLESS YOU for your obedience to HIS WORD..

YAHSHUA is COMING SOON! :angel:

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
