Have Christians become som complacent in their daily walk that the no longer believe in satan? The general population I seem to encounter think he cannot do any harm these days. Does he have us right where he wants us waiting as a lion to pounce?

Yes. Anyone who discounts satan's ability to mislead, disceive and devour is in mortal jeopardy. Satan is here and working on destroying our faith and our salvation.....remember, he hates the Lord and His creations (that would be us) and seeks only to kill and destroy. Our only protection from the father of lies is the armor of God.

Perhaps some have, but let's remember that all Satan has to do is have us not see him in his ways; therefore, finding no immediate need to seek Jesus on this matter. Satan is very evasive in his was and devious in his intentions.

My opinion concerning satan is that we have to have a balance concerning him. Not knowing that he is like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour is very dangerous and then on the other hand giving him glory for every little bad thing that happens I am sure just floats his flame. Anyone who steps out and does anything for the Lord will know that there is evil at work in this world, and hopfully are lead in the direction that enlightens them that as a believer they have power over the devil in Jesus Name.

In my opinion (And we all know what that is worth...lol), christianity as a whole has, in may cases, been rendered impotent in todays society and considered nothing of more value then say...Aesop's fables or any other fairy tale!

It's sad, but that mindset is creeping into many churches.

Be mindful that it first must creep into the hearts of those in church for it to even reach the doors.

Giving it some thought, yes, it is. Just skimming through posts one could walk away with thinking that it is the churches fault, and not the believer. Placing the focus back on us, where the problem starts, puts the spotlight on our personal walk and not on a church.

I'd be willing to bet that less than 10% of the people who attend church open their bibles outside of church.

For the majority, everything they learn comes from church.

    • 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.
