Guard my soul and deliver me; Do not let me be ashamed, for I take refuge in You. (Psa 25:20) To listen to the audio-only version click below    We have been sharing about deliverance from the evil of this present darkness. Activation of certain ancient Hebrew word picture demonstrates the power of God over the forces of darkness. We have several options in this current time frame from doing nothing to proactively acting on our faith. Like the famous Queen Esther, we know that salvation will come to the people of God with or without us but who knows if we have come to the kingdom for such a time as this? "For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place and you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?" (Est 4:14) If we have been born into a specific hour, then we can trust that we have been equipped for that same hour. There is nothing...

“He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you but to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8) To listen to the audio-only version click below  Giving Opportunity Message   The goodness of God is the unfailing standard for all of life. The prophet Micah declares that the Lord has shown us His goodness. Yeshua tells us that the only standard of true goodness is the Lord Himself. “But Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone.” (Mark 10:18) It looks of the surface that Yeshua is even saying that he isn’t good. But I think the true emphasis should be on the “calling” of someone good or evil.

The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God .
