Controlling Our Thoughts
May 20, 2013

The battles we face in today’s walk is a spiritual war that is trying to control the way we think. In 2^nd Cor. 10: 4-5.…. Paul is saying the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God, to the pulling down of strongholds.

Verse 5 says… to cast down imaginations… How many times we as Christians start to think on things that do not line up with the word of God.

If we are not careful we get over into lustful thinking, and suddenly we realize it and think… Where did that thought come from?

We have and enemy, his name is Satan, he is the devil, he comes to kill… steal… and destroy. His favorite deception is to manipulate our thought life through the way we think.

Psalms 15: 26 says, that wicked thoughts are an abomination to the Lord. We need to think on thoughts of purity, not on things in the worlds way of thinking.

If a wrong thought comes to mind, you know it did not come from God. Cast it out in the name of Jesus. We will never have the peace of God in our lives until we control our minds, that is our way of thinking.

You can’t walk the path of righteousness and the path of wrong thinking at the same time. In our daily lives we have to make choices… those choices come through our thoughts.

The devil will try to twist and pervert your thoughts to fit his deceptive ways therefore controlling your choices. Even though we have an enemy trying to confuse us, the one we have inside us is greater, and He will instill the truth in us.

It is a fact, there is an evil one who is continually working against our way of righteous thinking, at the same time there is the holy spirit who is always with you that can and will conquer all the things the devil comes against you with, especially in your thought life.

Deception is the devils only weapon against you, don’t let him steal your joy, your life or your blessings, lean on Jesus and the Holy Spirit and keep your precious way of thinking.

Nehemiah 8: 10 says… for the joy of the Lord is our strength.

Be happy, be strong in thought…

May the Lord bless you and may His countenance shine upon your face,

A word from Rev. Andy Freeman

The Way to Salvation

I have noticed lately that people are starting to agree that there is more than one way to go to heaven.
Personally I disagree, and this is why:
John 14:6 says… I am the way the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the father but by me.
2nd Timothy 2: 10 therefore I endure all things for the elects sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
Do not listen to people who say there is more than one way to go to heaven.
When Jesus died on the cross He redeemed us from the curse that had been placed on earth through Adams disobedience.
We were separated from God, now because of Calvary we have been reunited with God forever.
Through the cross, Jesus paid a price for our salvation, and through accepting Him, trusting him and living for him you will enter heaven.
Romans 10:9-10 says… if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him (Jesus) from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Confession of Jesus is made unto salvation.
There is no plan b.
One way, the only way, Christ Jesus.
