“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12
—– EDUCATED? … By WHOM? …. For decades now here in America, we’ve all been brainwashed toward education. But who’s educating us? What education? From what perspective and the premise, the foundation, the world view? Christ’s apostle Paul warned “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ” (Colossians 2:8). Many today esteem worldly education in order to gain prominence and profit in this fleeting life, but God’s Word tells us exactly what to esteem.
There’s no such thing as a saved man who doesn’t love and devour the Word of God!
The modern church world is filled with educated leaders but not according to the holy fear of God. They are educated in the veins of man’s theology and on marketing skills, schemes, and agendas – to grow their church businesses (2 Peter 2:1-3).
God’s Word cannot get into you until you get into it! Read Psalm 119.
Studying God’s Word is not a casual hobby to the true man of God. No, it’s his life! He deliberately, diligently devours God’s words daily!

“A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.” Jeremiah 17:12 As one is taken by Christ into the burial of the self-life, he will steadily lose his grip on and affection for the momentary trinkets of this passing world, and for the glamour and praise of mere men. Moved by the fear of the LORD, his allegiance and the affections of his heart will then begin to ascend to the “glorious high throne from the beginning” which “is the place of our sanctuary” (Jer. 17:12). “While we look not at the things which are seen, […]
Exhort One Another Daily [podcast]
“But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” Hebrews 3:13 “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) 24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much […]
He Delights in His Saints [podcast]
“But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.” Psalms 16:3 In the Bible, the word “peculiar” means special. God’s people are His “peculiar (special) treasure”: “Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a PECULIAR TREASURE unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:” Exodus 19:5 “For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his PECULIAR TREASURE.” Psalms 135:4 “he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.” Zechariah 2:8 Let’s Grow […]
Anybody remember that song “Shut thee door keep out the devil.” (thee is the sound not the).
It’s all over for the devil once you learn and apply the cross – the Bible concept of dying and letting Jesus reign in your life! Boom.
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7
I’m sorry, what?! Read James 4:7 again!
Okay, so let me get this straight …. If I submit myself to God afresh, repent, return to Him with a whole heart, then I can “Resist the devil, and he will flee from” me? Isn’t that what you just read for yourself in James 4:7? Yes it is!
James 4:7 – Greatest spiritual warfare Scripture in the Bible right there!
You can pray till you’re blue in the face and Satan is going no where – till you repent.
You can entertain and titillate your mind all day long with surface level nuggets and ramblings and yet nothing explosive is going to occur, nothing powerful is going to happen in your life until you die the death – until you put your foot down, smashing Satan’s head, and declare that Jesus Christ alone reigns in your life from that moment forward!
When sin is vanquished from your life, Satan is vanquished – he no longer has any legal right, claim to you! He is shut out! Satan failed at tempting Jesus because Jesus refused to enter into the temptations the Devil laid before Him. Jesus was in a season of fasting and prayer. This is key for us as it’s what He commanded for us (Matthew 6:16).
“When ye fast … Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 6:16; 26:41
Recently was able to share with a man who was seeking victory over his sins. The instruction was that there is nothing, no sin he can’t fast out of his life – as he draws near to God in repentance, God will draw near to Him and make him free (James 4:8). See Isaiah 58. | Fasting and Prayer
It’s G.O.D. time = Game Over Devil!
On a regular basis and a whole lot lately, people come, call for prayer. The first order of business is to get the sin dealt with in their lives, then the devil is forced out – he then has no legal right to them and must flee.
IF you are not enduring sound doctrine – holding yourself accountable to divine truth – you are Hell bound. If your life is all about YOU instead of JESUS – you will dodge, twist, and manipulate Scripture to fit your own sinful whims, and vainly believe that God doesn’t see all your dissimulation.
“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4
If your pastor is not preaching the pure Word of God and watching for your eternal soul, you are completely deceived and being led to eternal damnation (Hebrews 13:7, 17). This would account for more than 90% of the fake “Christian” leaders operating today.
“For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.” Isaiah 9:16
For explosive revelation of false prophets, read Jeremiah 23, Ezekiel 34, Matthew 23, and 2 Peter 2.
Now, today is your day to truly come before the throne of His grace while you can – before it’s too late. Nothing less than real, authentic repentance which produces a changed life will be in Heaven.
YOUR PRAYER: Jesus I am done with the Devil! I am sick and tired of living in sin and being battered by Your archenemy. Most of all, I want to love You supremely. I want to know You. Father, I come to You with an open, honest heart and ask You to forgive all my sins, to wash me clean in Thy precious blood dear LORD Jesus. Into Your holy hands I now submit my spirit, soul, and body. Make me whole LORD, as You alone can do. Please fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me in this last hour as we look for Your soon return. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
Ousting the Enemy! WHO’s READY FOR SOME VICTORY? Your issue is with the God you have sinned against, and not me, a mere messenger of His. Blaming everyone except the sinner who caused your separation from your Maker will only dig yourself deeper in misery. The sin you are living in has given full control of your life to Satan who has come “to steal, to kill, and to destroy.” (John 10:10) The following information will equip you to know what the LORD requires of you to be back into His graces, in a vital union with the Savior. Sin […]
Neither Give Place to the Devil! [podcast]
“Neither give place to the devil.” Ephesians 4:27 “This is a really good message!” CB — MANY have been blinded and duped to believe that either 1) there is no devil, or 2) there is a devil but he’s not active. But God’s Word tells us that Satan, the archenemy of Christ and mankind, is active and has an organized kingdom structure: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” (Ephesians 6:12) Warning: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as […]
"Resist the Devil, and he will Flee from You" [podcast]
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” 1 Peter 5:8 Satan had no power over Adam and Eve until they sinned and so he seduced them to do so as he tries to do with us (Colossians 2:4; 1 Peter 5:8, etc.). The enemy was allowed to tempt the first man and woman and when he did, they took the bait and sinned against God, consequently being separated from Him, from His blessings and protection (Genesis 3). From that point, separated from God in sin, the curse […]
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15
“I must be about my Father’s business?” Luke 2:49
“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10
“Love these shorts! Packed full of so much scripture in 30 seconds! I will never forget the words of my father on his death bed! “I didn’t know it was an option.” Meaning he did not know he needed to receive Jesus in order for his sins to be forgiven. And to be made right with God and go to heaven. How will they hear without a preacher? Romans 10:14. How can they believe if no one is telling them about eternal life with Jesus?” Karen Cochran
UPDATE – DELIVERED FOOD TODAY; – I purchased numerous food items for Clara and her boys today. Traversing difficult terrain to deliver the goods God supplied through your faithful giving left me with a sidewall puncture. A sidewall puncture cannot be patched and replacement was quoted at $274. Settled for a used tire. In this challenge came opportunity. God used the punctured tire for me to meet a wayward man. Jose has spent time in the USA and has family there. His wife is presently in Colorado; he expressed strain on his family. Jose received God’s Word preached to him […]
Evangelism Adventures: Stories, Reports, and Testimonies of God's Amazing Love [podcast]
SO, we prayed for God to use us today right? …. He’s hearing our prayer. So, in the gym this morning, a lady near me was struggling to get a large plate on each side of the barbell. So, I began to help her and she said “No Ingles” which means she does not speak English. So, I affirmed that she speaks Spanish and I began to speak God’s Word to her in her language. Her face lit up and she thanked me. God is good! Jesus says “The seed is the word of God” and His people are planting […]
