1 Corinthians 5

Sometimes, in order to show our love for someone we need to stand firm against the lies and deception they are living in. Like the prodigal son, they need time to see the truth and "come to their senses", as they begin to listen to the whispered voice of wise parental guidance from the Holy Spirit. If we embrace their sin, we enable them to continue in opposition to God, therefore, injuring the holy body of the bride of Christ. True conversion and sincere repentance are what is needed to endure to the end. Don't make the mistake of intervening too soon. Let the Holy Spirit of God do His patient work. Only He knows how to save the lost. Stand back in long-suffering and prayer after you have spoken the truth in love. Do not let the leaven of yeast remain or it will destroy the church of Christ. Remember the battle is not yours. Remember whose side you should be on. 

1 Corinthians 4

Listen to Paul's heart's lament as he warns the wayward Corinthians in his letter to them, to take heed lest they dishonor Christ, and the work Paul has done in teaching the truths given to him by the Holy Spirit. As a father-parable example to them, he speaks to them about not being pretentious, to wait upon the Lord's spiritual-maturity work in their life, and to come to truly know Him as their goal, instead of aiming to gain power and exaltation in the public eye. The power of the gospel message should be led by the power of the Holy Spirit and not the power of man's will. All secret motives will someday be revealed when we all stand before God's throne. When that great day arrives, will your heart be that of a sheep or a goat in His eyes?

1 Corinthians 3

Our prayer is that you become spiritually aware of the strategies of the devil to be your "friend" and of his tactics to delay you on your path to discovering truth from the Holy Spirit. He is like the spider in the web setting up sticky situations to make your faith falter and your trust in God to waver, thus trying to prevent you from surrendering your life to Christ who can set you free from the subtle peruasive powers of the enemy of your soul. Make Jesus Christ your solid foundation by basing everything in your life on His truth as your guide. Become a fool in the eyes of the world, in order to truly be wise in the eyes of your loving Father God in heaven.

1 Corinthians 2

Where can you get Wisdom? Many seek for it their entire lives and never find it. Some think their own wisdom is sufficient to deal with the challenges of living in this present world, ever darkening day by day. Listen to our spiritual journey through 1 Corinthians chapter 2, as we seek the Lord's wisdom. Step along in faith with us to hear what the Holy Spirit has to say about the importance of bringing our hearts before the Lord's scrutiny.  As our inner guide, He can protect us and help us grow to know God and Jesus Christ in a true way, as well as help our hearts to be ready to resist the devil and submit to God in the end times so we may be counted among the righteous followers of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour.

1 Corinthians 1

Be careful to not get caught up in following "man" over Christ Himself. Allow the Holy Spirit to guide you along in life, as you follow in Christ's steps, to meet people He wants you to help bring closer to Him in their faith journey. It is all about Jesus! Not about man's rules and intelligence. Surrender your life unto Jesus, as your personal Saviour, to gain a true testimony to share with others of His real existence and sacrificial love that paid the price for your forgiveness, granting you the offer of accepting eternal life with Him, if you should so choose. Boast of His love for you and others, and rejoice!

Daniel 12

Do you ever wonder if your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life? Have you taken the spiritual journey yet of seeking the Lord with all your heart until you found Him? This chapter will make you stop and think upon these matters, as well as, awaken a curious desire, like Daniel, to know the interpretation of end times' events. Spiritual truths are sealed until the Lord decides to reveal them to us. Open your heart to His inspection so He may purify you from sin and prepare within you the groundwork for His personal revelation of truth and insight. Only His truth shall set you free! 

Daniel 11

Listen as clues are revealed to what happened back then and what is still to come. The antichrist spirit is at work in the hearts of those who oppose Him, as well as in those who do not desire to seek Christ, to become subserviant to Him, in love and worship. Times of testing and oppression will come to those who still need to repent. This is an act of God's love and mercy for their souls, to try to protect them from the enemy's plan to deceive them into living eternally separate from God and Jesus Christ, in a state of constant regret and remorse for their selfish living. You cannot live your life now to try to please two masters. Every knee shall someday bow to God Almighty. The quicker you agree with His will and design, the quicker you will be set free from the times of tribulation meant to bring people to humility and alignment with truth and life found in Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Daniel 10

Take heart! You are not alone in your battle against the forces of evil. God hears your prayers the moment you sincerely call out to Him in humility. He assigns angelic warriors to defend you and will uphold you in the darkness of end times spiritual warfare upon the earth. Rest assured, you will be saved if you have surrendered your entire being over to the One and only Saviour, Jesus Christ, who has compassion on the inhabitants of this earth. Be prepared to be a watchman, both warning and witnessing to those who the Lord sends your way. Help them find peace with their God so they can join those being rescued to the safe haven of Zion.

Daniel 9

Take time to examine your heart with the inward guidance of the Holy Spirit. Do you agree with Him about your need for deliverance from the bondage of sin? Do you cry out to Him with heartfelt sorrow seeking forgiveness and cleansing, begging for mercy to receive salvation through Jesus Christ becoming your own personally-needed Saviour? Have you ever experienced the surreal ecstatic joy from truly connecting with the Lord, feeling the excitement and reassurance of His indwelling presence within your heart and mind? Be prepared now so as to successfully pass the tests of the end times, by truly knowing Jesus, hearing the inner voice of the Holy Spirit, as He leads you safely home to eternity. For it is written in Revelation that true believers are not appointed to the cups of wrath that are to be poured out upon the enemies of Christ. Therefore we must both stand firm and pray for those who are weaker in the faith. May the words of Daniel's prayer be our own.

Daniel 8

In this chapter, Daniel is overcome by the interpretation from the angel Gabriel concerning the end times vision he is given. As we look back at events witnessed in our history, it may cause us to shudder, as well. Now, we look ahead with uncertainty at the future that lays before us. May we cast all our cares upon the great Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ and trust His promises to guide and protect us, bringing us safely to the other side of our own "Red Sea" that lays ahead. He alone can save us. Remember, pride comes before a fall, and with humility, He will lift us up in due time.
