Just as an aside, I find that when I don't partake in media, t.v. radio, and yes the internet, the better I feel, the more at peace I am. Somehow engaging in these things seems to put just a little poison in me.

That sure is true here too..I have pretty much quit going to the movies at all..nothing of any value out there..

only radio I listen to is the Christian station ..

and seldom watch TV..I find most all programming terribly offensive...

I am also cutting out some of my internet stuff too..

I try to find myself in a place that I am at peace with the Lord about if that makes sense..

when I am uncomfortable I leave...

I am mostly here now as I have found this site quite a blessing and a window to fellowship with other Christians...

We have a lot to be watchful for in this world that is bent on taking our affection away from the Lord...

Remain Faithful .....

Luk 21:35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

Luk 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

I believe the world is quickly deteriorating meaning things are being destroyed at a much faster rate then at anytime in history... such as carbon ect... that's why carbon dating isn't working because it is all deteriorating faster then what they think... we are living on a dying planet... :thumbsup:

I heard a preacher say on the radio today...

"The devil used to creep in dark alleys at night, NOW he parades down main street in broad daylight"

Seems like the devil himself thinks that time is short for him.

He"s getting desperate.

I too have been greatly affected by the state our world is in.

The things that are most obvious to me as to the satanic attack in this world is what IS happening with our children. Proverbs says spare the rod spoil the child. Do I find this to mean that we beat our children for everything they do? No, but I do agree that society has made such a big deal of how we are allowed as parents to discipline our children that they have managed to completly take away from the principles of our Father and the discipline He gives to those He loves.

Then there is the trash on TV. The reality TV? What is that? I see it as a way to make people work so hard against each other that there is only one thing that will happen. They will hate one another. Deal or No Deal? Doesn't Howey Mandel just remind you of what the devil might look like? Sorry, even though it doesn't sound like it there was a touch of humor in those words. Everything about that show and others like it is to glorify money and what money can buy. I don't see regular TV programs telling us what money can't buy! The Medium? Just too gross for me. I refuse to allow my 9 yr old daughter to watch that trash!! And then there are the witch shows. Satan really wants us to dally in the underworld and he uses the TV moguls as transports for it.

The internet. Now that is really a good place for satan to invade our world. You have to be so carefull about search engines...got to be real carefull with the word used or it will send nothing but smut your way and if you do click on it then you can never get rid of it. It just keeps coming and coming..makes me want to run..makes me want to vomit!!!!!

So then on to the Middle East, the horrific storms that have occured in the past 2 yrs, 9/11!!!

The state of the world simply put is...coming to an END!!!!

I couldn't agree more..sometimes it seems to me that if I look real close I can almost see him. Like that thin veil between the physical realm and the spiritual is slowly tearing and pretty soon we will see both sides even while living in the physical.

But I am not afraid. God did not give me a spirit of fear. And through God all things are possible.

Praise the Lord

State of the world????

Visible proof of sin and Satan's effect on mankind as his plans come to fruition.

Fortunately.....

Peace to you all

The world may be caught in the grips of despair and evil as well as positive things but we are all blessed and safeguarded from the despair and evil. The love and protection that we need is there. The Lord frees us from the world. It is so very important we keep our focus on Him. It is so important that we share the gospel with everyone. So many who are trapped in the darkness looking for a way out. The Lord can free anyone from bondage of self, bondage of the world, bondage of the enemy. We look at the state of the world and yes it does look grim in a lot of ways and it will get worse. We need to be thankfull for our salvation, we need to be thankfull for the Blood that protects us and keeps us pure. It is the Blood, that precious Blood that freed us all. So yes the state of the world might not be great but God is great. He is our salvation from it and today and everyday I thank Him and Praise Him for the blessing of freedom from bondage of the world. Glory be to Your most Holy name Lord and thankyou for saving us all.. :emot-pray:

As the Lord said, "the love of many will grow cold". I think we see that, there are so many angry people, so many self-seeking to the extent that selfishness is now praised, greed is praised, sexual promiscuity is praised, and good is bad and bad is good, everything is kind of becoming upside down. Which I guess makes sense given what we know about what is going to happen to this world.

Just as an aside, I find that when I don't partake in media, t.v. radio, and yes the internet, the better I feel, the more at peace I am. Somehow engaging in these things seems to put just a little poison in me.

Amen to that :emot-pray:

    • 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.
