  1. FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT!

    MAR 4

    FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT!

    FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT The fruit of the Spirit, found in Galatians 5:16-26, is made up of the nine qualities or gifts. Love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not doing whatever you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires and living by the Spirit of God. We are not under law but under grace because Jesus Christ already paid the penalty of the law. If a Christian operates by the law, he is operating by the flesh (Romans 7:8-11). LOVE: This type of love is what makes it possible for believers to communicate and be at peace with one another. JOY: It is an inner gladness that leads to a cheerful heart and a cheerful heart leads to cheerful behavior. PEACE: “And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7). FORBEARANCE: When we’ve learned to wait upon the Lord, we find it easier to forbear with our brothers and sisters (1 Peter 3:8). KINDNESS: Kindness is the characteristic that led God to provide salvation for us. GOODNESS: Goodness is virtue and holiness in action. FAITHFULNESS: It refers to being loyal and trustworthy GENTLENESS: This means we must show tenderness and consideration for others. SELF-CONTROL: To control oneself. It involves moderation, constraint, and the ability to say “no” to our desires and fleshly lusts. The Spirit cannot lead Christian unless they walk in the Spirit. Unless the Holy Spirit fills us, He will not lead us. The Holy Spirit is the one who engages us to live the Christian life. We can never live that life in our power. 03/03/26

  2. PULLING DOWN SPIRITUAL STRONGHOLDS!

    FEB 11

    PULLING DOWN SPIRITUAL STRONGHOLDS!

    A SPIRITUAL STRONGHOLD IS A HARMFUL PATTERN OF THOUGHTS, ATTITUDE, OR BELIEF THAT CAN BE DIFFICULT TO BREAK FREE FROM. IT DESTROY MENTAL, EMOTIONAL, OR SPIRITUAL BARRIERS THAT OPPOSE THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD. IT IS HARMFUL, AND THAT IS WHY IT IS A STRONGHOLD, BECAUSE IT HOLDS US IN BONDAGE, IT IS WHAT WE THINK ABOUT. IF IT IS BAD WE ARE CAPTIVE TO THE BAD THOUGHTS, AND WHEN WE CANNOT LET GO OF BAD THOUGHTS. IT BECOMES A PROBLEM IN OUR LIFE. 2 CORINTHIANS 10:3-6 SAID, “CASTING DOWN IMAGINATIONS, AND EVERY HIGH THING THAT EXALTED ITSELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, AND BRINGING EVERY THOUGHT INTO CAPTIVITY EVERY THOUGHT TO THE OBEDIENCE  OF CHRIST. REMEMBER THAT ALTHOUGH WE WALK IN THE FLESH, WE DO  NOT WRESTLE AGAINST THE FLESH. FOR THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL BUT MIGHTY THROUG GOD TO THE PULLING DOWN OF STRONGHOLDS. THERE ARE FOUR CENTRAL STRONGHOLDS OF THE MINS. THERE ARE MORE, BUT WE WILL ADDRESS THESE FOUR MAIN ONES. FEAR, CONFUSION, ANGER, AND DESPAIR. A PERSON WITH A SPIRITUAL STRONGHOLD WILL FIND IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SHAKE OFF OR DISMISS HARMFUL THOUGHTS FROM THEIR THINKING, AND IT BEGINS TO OVERWHELM THEIR MIND TO THE POINT WHERE THEY ARE CONTROLLED BY IT. THE BIBLE ENCOURAGES US TO PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD AND TO RECOGNIZE THE SPIRITUAL FORCES THAT ARE COMING AGAINST US.. WE OVERCOME THROUGH PRAYER AND FASTING, WHICH CAN RELEASE GOD’S STRENGTH TO DISLODGE DEMONIC STRONGHOLDS AND ATTACKS ON OUR MINDS. VICTORY BELONGS TO US AND “GOD HAS NOT GIVEN US A SPIRIT OF FEAR, BUT OF POWER, LOVE AND A SOUND MIND” (2 TIMOTHY 1:7). 2/10/26
