Merry Christmas



You are what the Word says you are. You can do what the Word says you can do. You can have what the Word says you can have. Begin to believe that. Begin to say it out loud in faith







Merry Christmas to you, our dear readers!


I hope you take many opportunities this season to celebrate Christ by giving a word of hope,
be an encourager to someone.

Your challenge: find just one positive thing.

I am challenging you to be an encourager by finding just one positive thing in a difficult situation. You may find more than one, but starting with one will open the way to love others.

"Protect Your Soul From the Destructive Forces of the Enemy!"

"You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength, and all your mind. And, love your neighbor as yourself." Luke 10:27, NLT
Our world is inundated with intense and even frightful events. We who are the reigning spiritual power on the earth are called on to pray boldly for the will of God to be made manifest in any horrendous situations.
Intercessors are the legs the Church stands on and intercession should be the core substance of every Believer. Due to the important position every intercessor holds in the world, we must be on guard against the enemy's tricks to deactivate our authority in the spirit realm. None of us are perfect, and we all have weaknesses, so, we must all remain watchful of the impact we are having on the world by remaining alert to the hindrances our own souls.
I've seen many who've prayed positive declarations into the spirit realm one minute, yet, slander their brother the next. Naturally, this grieves my spirit, not just because I know it will injure the person being slandered (that's inevitable), but because I can feel in my spirit how deeply it will injure their own heart. Every word we speak affects our soul – either for good or for bad. Even those who are careful to make only positive, life-filled declarations over themselves simply have no idea the poison they release in their own lives by speaking evil of others.

That Glorious Name

And I will do [I Myself will grant] whatever you may ask in My name [as presenting all that I AM,] so that the Father may be glorified and extolled in (through) the Son. - John 14:13


In Jesus' Name. It's more than a phrase we tack onto the end of our prayers. All that God is and does is represented in the Name of Jesus. The Amplified Bible says when you ask in His Name, you present your requests to the Father on the basis of all that Jesus is. So you can boldly expect to have those requests granted—not because you're worthy, but because He is!
 What's more, the Name of Jesus carries authority over all other names.

 In Philippians 2:5-11, the Apostle Paul tells us, "God also hath highly exalted him [Jesus], and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth."
In spite of all the Word of God has to say about the power of the Name of Jesus, most believers don't seem to put much stock in it. They'll pray in the Name of Jesus, then turn right around and say, "I sure hope God answers that prayer." They don't realize that if they only had the faith to believe it, Jesus' Name alone carries enough clout to guarantee their prayers will be answered.

Remember Noah


And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. - Genesis 6:7-8

One of the dirtiest, most damaging lies that the devil ever told you was when he said, "You aren't important." Don't you ever believe that.
You are important! Every born-again member in the Church of Jesus Christ has a part to play in God's plan. God has something for you to do that no one else can do just like you can. If you don't take your place and do your part, things won't be quite right.
I can just hear you thinking, "Oh, Gloria, I'm just one person. What could I possibly do that could be so significant?"
Look in Genesis 6, and you'll see the answer to that question. There you'll see that the people on the earth had gotten so wicked that God had regretted that He'd made them. He was ready to wipe the whole population out--but He didn't. Why? Because of one man: Noah! One obedient man saved the human race.

Shake it off


Acts 28:1-6

Paul on his way to Rome was shipwrecked and landed on the Island of Malta. It was cold and rainy and the people on the island though barbarous were very kind, they lit a fire to keep them Paul and the others warm. Paul collected sticks to keep the fire going, but when he was placing the sticks on the fire a viper came out of the heat and fastened itself on his hand.

When the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live. Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.

Stop and Wrestle

Victoria Boyson

"Don't answer the foolish arguments of fools, or you will become as foolish as they are." Proverbs 26:4. NLT

When we argue with fools (those who are blind to the truth) we end up looking like fools; truly we make ourselves the greater fool. For, who is more foolish, the one who thinks he sees or the one who truly sees, yet lets himself get stuck in an enemy ambush?
The argument of fools is a trap. It is far too easy to fall into when someone reaches your personal point of contention or they've tipped your sacred cow. You may be reasonable about most everything, but what is the issue that makes your blood boil? What turns you into a fool?
How easy it is to forget the battle we face is not of this world. Indeed, we are in a battle everyday with unseen forces who will take advantage of any person or situation. Our battle is not a battle of this world, but for the world. It doesn't matter what's coming against you, the answer is the same - it is truly a supernatural battle. I feel it growing everyday in the church...an anger that matches the world's.
Are we letting the world set the agenda for us? Are we to mirror the world's hostility, or display the love of Christ? For, "Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples" John 13:35.

Earthquakes in our Lives



22 And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them. 23 And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely: 24 Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. 25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. 26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed. 27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, 30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house. 33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway. 34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house. (Acts 16:22-34)
Paul and Silas were in the inner parts of the prison singing and praising God, despite the fact that they were stripped, beaten and feet placed in stocks. Praise causes the glory of God to manifest in your life.

An earthquake came and shook the foundations of the prison.The doors opened and the chains fell off the prisoners.You would think that the prisoners would leave but God had a different plan.God wanted to get to the jailer.

Protected by Love

"Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven. - Matthew 5:44-45"

Love your enemies...turn the other cheek...to most people that sounds like a pretty weak way to handle someone who's causing them trouble. But, the truth is, it's the most powerful way there is. It's the way Jesus did it—and His way never fails.
Do you remember when Jesus went back to Nazareth and the religious folks were angry with Him and wanted to push Him off a cliff? What happened? He just walked right past them, and no one could lay a finger on Him. Another time they decided to stone Him, and He didn't retaliate that time either. He just walked off. No one could touch Him.
When Jesus walked through that crowd, He wasn't afraid. He knew they couldn't hurt Him because He was walking in the love of God.
When Jesus said to turn the other cheek, He didn't mean for you to stand there and have your brains beaten out. He meant for you to stand there in love and in faith believing that the protecting power of God that accompanies that love would keep you safe. He meant for a man to swing at you and not be able to hit you!

Receive the Man Of God

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. - John 13:20

I can't tell you how many born-again, Holy Ghost-filled Christians pick their pastor apart on Saturday night and then expect him to pray the prayer of faith for them Sunday morning! They'll constantly make critical comments about the evangelists and preachers that God has sent to minister to them and then wonder why the rain of the Spirit has all but dried up in their churches.

Most of those folks would never dream of criticizing the ministry of Jesus. Yet, according to the Word of God, that's precisely what they're doing. You see, Jesus said, "He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me."

I know ministers fail sometimes. I know they make mistakes. Jesus knew they would too. But, even so, He said, "If you receive them, you receive Me."

Receive

There are thousands of people who read and study the Word of God. But it is not quickened to them. The Bible is a dead letter except by the Spirit. The Word of God can never be vital and powerful in us except by the Spirit. The words that Christ spoke were not just dead words but they were spirit and life.


And so it is the thought of God that a living word, a word of truth, the word of God, a supernatural word of knowledge, shall come forth from us through the power of the Spirit of God. It is the Holy Ghost who will bring forth utterances from our lips and a divine revelation of all the mind of God.


The child of God ought to thirst for the Word. He should know nothing else but the Word, and should know nothing among men save Jesus. "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word which proceedeth out of the mouth of God." It is as we feed on the Word and meditate on the message it contains, that the Spirit of God can bring to life that which we have received.


Determine today that you're going to start receiving that revelation from the Holy Spirit. As you read the Word, pray in the Spirit and ask Him to reveal to you the reality of the Scriptures. Ask Him to shed His light on them and show you exactly how they apply to you.

He has not forgotten you

Job 23:10, He knows the way that I take and when he has tried me, I shall come forth as gold. Romans 8:28 decrees, all things work together for good to those that love God and to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Those are promises He has given us to hold on to in this walk. You may feel down and like God has forgotten you. Just begin to worship and praise Him. Take your mind off of things for a while and concentrate on him. He will build you up and give you the strength to move on.

The Lord's hand is not too short that it cannot reach you. Neither is His power too weak that it cannot affect you. The Lord planned your life before you began it. He has taken into consideration all of your failures and weaknesses. And guess what? He still chose you. He loves you more than words can ever express. His love covers you.

He wants you to draw closer without the worry of where you are in your walk. You don't have to concentrate on getting to the mark the fastest. You don't have to press to get it all right. He loves it when you just rest in His arms and let Him lead you and control the pace.


Lord, I am your humble servant, I forgive if I have sinned against anyone. Fill me with your love, fill my mind with your thoughts, fill my mouth with your words, I am yours to command. I open my eyes to see and my ears to hear. Speak to me Lord.

March 31, 2014

The Time For Change is Now

Look at yourself in the light of God's word and face the things in your life that are not lining up with the word. Confess and receive forgiveness. God knows everything about you anyhow. (1John 1:6-9).

God has blotted out all your sins, so begin to confess who you are according to the word.(Isaiah 43:25-26).


Jesus said in Mark 4:24: Take heed, or listen, to what you hear. Listen to yourself! Think, Do I want what I just said to come to pass? If the answer is no, then stop and correct yourself right then. Replace those negative words with praise (Ephesians 5:4). If you've gotten sloppy about what you say, change your course today by changing your words. Ask God to help you set a watch over your mouth (Ps. 141:3). Put the power that's in your tongue to work for you instead of against you. Stop using it to make messes, and start using it to make miracles. There is a miracle in your mouth,

Check what you are eating.
Feed yourself with the love, faith, hope, health , wealth that you find throughout the word

Prayer of Victory

"But thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." 1 Corinthians 15:57



Father, I praise You for the victorious life You have promised me. I don't have to be discouraged, defeated or confused, yearning for attention or approval. I can be affirmed by Your Word and Your Holy Spirit. Thank you for calling me and saving me, for filling me with the Holy Spirit. Thank You that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I praise You for that (Psalm 139:14). What a joy to know that you knew me before I was born, and you set me apart, and appointed me as a prophet unto the nations (Jeremiah 1:5).

Today, Father, I choose to walk as an overcomer. I declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. No weapon formed against me will prosper. I take the shield of faith and quench every fiery dart of the evil one. I overcome evil with good. I walk in great peace, because Your Word declares in Psalm 119:165, “Great peace have they that love Thy Word, and nothing shall offend them.” I choose life, joy, peace, success, and purity today. I choose to see myself as You see me, loved, accepted, gifted, empowered, edified, and equipped. Amen

Feel rejected today?

Father God I lift up every visitor today

Father,I come in the name of Jesus for your word said that what ever we bind on earth is bound in heaven and what we loose on earth is loose in heaven. You say you will expose that which is in darkness and bring it into the light of your truth. In the name of Jesus,I take authority,over Satan ,and I bind you and all your activities against those in need. I take authority over all curses, hex ,spell ,,every word prayed or spoken not of Gods word over my visitors.I call it null and void ,I come against witchcraft, demonic activities, all in the name of Jesus.I speak to that spirit of rejection and low self esteem ,and tell it to go in Jesus name, you have no place, my visitor is a Child of God. Never to return again.

Your word declares you desire sweet dreams and rest for your children,for you send Angels to encamp around us to defend,preserve and accompany us in all that we do .Your word declares that no weapon formed against us will prosper and every word that rises up against us we shall condemn.

Therefore Father I thank you and praise you,love and adore you ,that your Blood redeems us, and breaks every curse, hex, spell, voodoo, sorcery, words spoken against us,witchcraft and demonic activities. We praise you for showing us how to pray and how to cover our family through the blood,We exalt you and magnify your Holy name.

Micah 6:8 He has showed you ,O man what is good and what does the lord require of you ? To act justly and to love mercy and walk humbly with your God. Amen

It's your year to step into victory.



It's your year to step into victory! (Here’s how…)
Welcome to 2014! We have good news for you as you begin this New Year: There is never a problem the devil has devised that God cannot fix. Not a single one!

No matter how difficult of a situation you may be facing, God has a solution. He has your victory!

The doctors may have told you there is no hope. Your bank account may be empty, and the creditors knocking on the door. There may be trouble in your family or on your job. Your problems may be stacked so high, you feel like you can never overcome them, much less come out on top.

But Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil. He made every provision for you to live an abundant life, with nothing missing and nothing broken. The victory is already yours…but you have to step into it with a spirit of faith.

STEP OUT with a Spirit of Faith

The spirit of faith believes the Word of God.

And it believes the Word of God just because God said it, whether or not natural circumstances agree or not. Listen to this description of the spirit of faith:

And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak,… while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal. – 2 Corinthians 4:13, 18, New King James Version

What do you need a spirit of faith for? If you want to maintain a spirit of faith in the area of healing, for example, you must start by finding out what God says about it. Then, you must choose to receive the Word as the truth. The same goes for your finances, your family, your relationships, your job and so on. When you believe the Word of God, you open a window to your life that gives God the opportunity to enter in. Without faith there is no victory.

STEP UP and Fight the Good Fight

Once you start believing the Word of God for your situation, you will have a fight of faith on your hands.

But the Bible says it’s a good fight! Why? Because you always win when you believe God. Still, it will take some hard work.

The Bible says that Satan comes immediately to steal the Word. You will be tempted to doubt and not believe. Combat this by casting down thoughts that are contrary to what Scripture says, and replace them with God’s promises, His thoughts. Keep putting the Word in your heart—every day—until faith rises up within you.

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. − 2 Corinthians 10:5, NIV

Having the Word in your mind is good, but having it in your heart as well is powerful. Second Corinthians says, “I believed, and therefore have spoken…” The spirit of faith stands in the midst of impossible circumstances, believes God anyway, and begins to speak the Word of God. When cancer attacks, faith doesn’t say, “I’m dying of cancer.” Faith says, “I am healed by the stripes of Jesus. Therefore, I will live and not die, and declare the works of the Lord!”

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. − Proverbs 18:21, NKJV

Resolve to make a daily confession of victory using the Scriptures, even when the circumstances don’t line up with God’s Word. It’s what you believe in your heart and say with your mouth continually that comes to pass in your life.

STEP INTO Your Victory
Victory comes when you simply persist in doing things you know to do.
Act on the knowledge of God’s Word and what He says. It’s imperative that you believe God and then act like you believe. Instead of looking at a negative situation, focus your attention on the promises of God. Keep them in front of your eyes and in your ears until you can see the answer coming to pass with the eyes of your spirit. That’s what the spirit of faith does. It looks “not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporary; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” – 2 Corinthians 4:18, NKJV

This doesn’t mean you should stick your head in the sand and ignore problems. After all, they’re real! But according to the Scripture above, those circumstances are only temporary. If you persist in an attitude of victory, God will see to it that they change.

With great expectation, just watch what He does. Those areas in your life will begin to conform to the Word of God, and you will step into 2014 as your year of victory! Praise God!

Living the abundant life

The majority of Christians today live below their privileges in Christ, constantly denying themselves the abundant life. In John 10:10 we understand that Jesus came that we might have the abundant life, a life superior in quality. a life that is exceeding, abundant more than we can ask, think or even imagine.

Our negative words keep controlling and dominating us thus establishing our standard of living and because of this our lives can never rise above our confession. We have to learn to confess ( speak) what the word says. Change your thoughts and your words and your life will begin to change. If you make an observation, you will observe that every time you allow yourself to think and speak negatively you act negatively, you are ruled by your words. You talk fear and fear increases its grip upon you.

A wrong confession is a confession of defeat and failure. When Jesus arose from the dead he left a defeated Satan, always remember Satan is defeated. Jesus defeated Satan for us, he destroyed his works for us, he conquered him for us. Jesus' victory was our victory. Confess the authority he gave you over Satan. Behold he has given you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions and over all the powers of the enemy. Be not afraid of the circumstances because you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you

Keep your confession don't change it every time something looks contrary. Let God's word abide in your heart, because out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. With your words you constantly paint a picture of your inner self. Whatever is in your speech that is the way your heart is. Your confession is your real faith talking. When you say what God says He will make it good, begin to make God's word the standard for your life and your life will begin to change

Fasting 2014 - Day 1



Isaiah 60:1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.






It is the beginning of the year, a time when many Christians around the world will begin to fast.
Today I begin 40 days of prayer and fasting.

Jan 13th - Feb 21st, 2014

It is time to Arise and Shine

God's will for everyone that believes in Him is to rise and make progress in every area of their lives. There are times in our lives when we become stagnant and are not making progress.
It is possible to fall into sin, error, or failure. Whichever is the case God is willing to draw you out so that those positions will only be temporary and are not meant to be the end or the final state of your life.
So even as you spend time with God in prayer and fasting know that God can change any situation that has brought a cloud of darkness over your life.
God has a plan to raise you up from the state of spiritual death, and any thing that is dead in your body or your life can be raised back to life by the power of His Spirit.
Shine for Jesus in 2014

Fasting and Prayer

You may be a believer who had a passion for the Lord but somewhere along the way you lost the fire. Fasting and prayer are the tools that will bring you back in line. It releases so much more in your life than you can comprehend.

When you choose to begin a fast, you are doing something out of the ordinary. You are breaking out the norm, the everyday routine. You can’t keep doing the same thing and expect to have different results. Fasting is doing things differently and expecting God to move in a supernatural way!

When we can control the appetite we can control the flesh-king of our body. Fasting gives us a holy sense of true values. So as you go into your time of fasting watch how you begin to die to the fleshly desires that were becoming hindrances in your life and threatened to destroy you.

There are several types of fasting, the one you choose is between you and God. He will honor your best sacrifice. I encourage you to seek the Lord in prayer and let your decisions about your biblical fasting come from Him. Ask the Lord to show you areas to target during your time of fasting and prayer. There must be purpose in your fasting. God will reward you in fasting if you seek Him with the right motives and in a scriptural way.

Get your plan prepared. Be sure you have a clear goal for your fast. Is it direction, restoration of a relationship, healing or financial breakthrough? Moses fasted before receiving the Ten Commandments. Hannah fasted and prayed to have a child. Jesus fasted forty days in the wilderness. Why are you fasting?

Begin with a clear goal. Be specific. Why are you fasting? Do you need direction, healing, restoration of marriage or family issues? Are you facing financial difficulties? Ask the Holy Spirit for guidance. Read the Bible and pray as often as you can throughout the day. Get away from the normal distractions as much as possible and keep your heart and mind set on seeking God's face.

Fasting without prayer, without time spent humbling yourself before the Lord, will just leave you empty. But a heart poured out before God will be full
Will you interrupt your lives and your routines enough to regain the fire and truly become broken before the Lord? Remember when you fast, it is common to experience headaches and irritability as your body detox and experience withdrawals from caffeine and sugar. Of course you will feel hungry, but use these moments as a reminder of why you’re fasting and pause to pray and seek the Lord.

Don’t wait for the perfect time to begin and don’t quit if you stumble. Remember, it is the attitude of a heart sincerely seeking Him to which God responds with. May God bless you as you dedicate this time to prayer and fasting.

Breaking Generational Curses

What was the #1 blog post for all time?

Breaking Generational Curses

Due to the fact that so much of interest was shown , I am going to revisit this post.

You are saved, baptized and full of the Holy Ghost, yet there are some areas that you are still struggling to get victory.When we got saved the spirit man was born again,but the strongholds that were allowed previously into our lives were never dealt with. After going to God and confessing and repenting of your sins, there are still some habits that seems not to go.You keep doing the same thing over and over.It becomes repetitious and this can signal that there is a stronghold in your life.

Many of the things going on in our lives such as fears, jealousy, mental illness, hatred, low self-esteem, gluttony, rejection, anger ,sexual perversions, spiritual heaviness fear are frequently related to what are called generational curses.. Curses which can be passed down from generation to generation, often times without you even being aware of their presence and yet have the ability to affect you.

Are you chained or anchored

Judges 16: 18-21 18 And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their hand. 19 And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their hand. 20 And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the LORD was departed from him. 21 But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house.

Chained means to be bound to something.
Anchored means to be secured to,something that will prevent you from drifting.
If you own a boat and you will drop anchor in order to get whatever you need to be done. When you drift it causes you move from where you want to be to some place you don’t want to.


Although you might not be physically bound with chains like Samson , you might be bound financially, emotionally, mentally. You feel like you are in an emotional cycle. You are at a place where you are unable to see. You struggle and try to break free, held a captive, you are broken, crushed, strongholds weighing you down, you feel hopeless and fail to understand that the price for your freedom has already been paid in full.

Happy New Year



A very happy and God-blessed year to all my readers!

I believe that God wants to give us a great year of advancement in our own spiritual lives and also in the extension of His Kingdom.

Begin this year with praise and thanksgiving for what the Lord has done for you in 2013.

Believe for new doors, new opportunities, new grace, new favor, new ideas, new vision, new faith, new anointing, and new levels for 2014.

Renounce all the works of darkness, and recommit your life to love, humility, holiness, faith, prayer, worship, and the will of God.

Loose yourself from all spirits of darkness that would try to follow you into 2014.

Speak health, healing, life, prosperity, wealth, and shalom at the beginning of this new year.

Use what you have learned last year to launch you into another season of blessing and increase.

Decree failures and frustrations from last year will not carry over into this new year.

This is a word of encouragement to help you in your daily spiritual walk. If you are blessed by this word, why not leave a comment telling us how it blessed you. You may also share the blessing and forward it to a friend, relative or associate who you know will be blessed by these words.
Repentance is a God given opportunity to enter into the blessings of the Lord and escape from the oppression of the enemy.
If you haven't ask Jesus into your heart as Savior and asked Him to forgive you of your sins, it is as simple as following these steps:

1) ADMIT YOU HAVE SINNED. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23).

2) BELIEVE IN JESUS. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).


3) CONFESS AND LEAVE YOUR SIN. "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9)

About Me

My photo
A Christian who loves to write about christian living, spiritual health and self improvement. I pray daily that the love and grace of God will be poured out through my life to others, so that those who are in bondage can be delivered and the captives set free. I remind myself daily that whether or not I have "witnessed" I am still a witness in everything I do.
