I agree 100%! My dad passed away in April and the Holy Spirit has definitely been my comforter...Amen!

Amen my 18yr old precious son went home into the arms of Jesus & the holy spirit came & also helped me through out my early days of grieving & keeps on bringing peace & comfort that surpasses all understanding

Well mt dad passed away a year ago nov . I have had nothing but hell . Started drinking way to much . Prayed and cut that drinking way back . During all this I'm going through menopause . I feel like icam on a roller coaster ride and I can't get off. How are we supposed to not put in any effort to do God's will ? I have tried and tried and tried to understand this concept and I dont get it. I am to the point I feel like I am a reprobate.

@@whateverheather655 we have to crucify our fleshly nature meaning when we make bad choices over & over ect& be how God intended us to be.Do you have a Bible?I am also going through menopause & know how hard it is.We need to be reading the word as it is good for our soul.The more we get to know the Lord the more we will want to commit to his ways & please him.There is a war for your soul Satan will try anything to pull us away from the Lord so we must stay on guard & put on the full armour of God like it says in his word,I hope this answered a few questions for you.

@@whateverheather655 This Is How. I Pray For You 🙏 I Release Everything To The Christ Light . I Release All My Past, Negatives, Fears, Inner Self, Human Desires, Sex, All Human Relationships, Communications, And Judging To The Christ Light. I Am A Christ Light Being. I Radiate The Christ Light Through Out My Christ Light Center, And Through Out My Whole Being. I Am A Christ Light Being, And I Radiate Christ Light Through Out My Whole Being. I Am In The Center Of A Bubble Of The Christ Light Only Good Can Come Here, And Only Good Can Be Here. Thank You God For Everything, For Everyone, And For Myself. I Think A Kind Thought For My Family, And Loved Ones, Are Also In The Center Of A Bubble Of Christ Light. Thank You Father God.

I agree we get hurt when we except from man God never lets us down he always has a plan for us

Wisdom!

Amen !

…when once we realize and accept this as truth, we will be much better off!

We receive peace when we hear and obey the Spirit of Christ, who took the written code of the Law into His flesh in order to fulfill and reveal it to us through His Spirit. Then, having paid the price for our sin we were reconciled to the Father, giving every man a chance to draw near to Him and fulfill His will in the building of His Kingdom on earth. Learn more about this in our new book, "Learning to Walk in Spirit and Truth: A Commentary of John's Gospel" by Twenty-Five Thirty-Six which is available at Amazon books. This book explores John’s account of the gospel in a way that brings life and a fresh perspective to our walk with Christ. Also, check out our RU-vid channel for short teaching videos!

My humble suggestion is that you start a discussion with your kids through a mediator or somebody who will help the discussion for both sides. Praying about it is nice but you need to do a lot more than that if you want this resolved.

My Son came back but my daughter WILL NOT.

Bro Rowhan don't give up keep pray and faste, every thing that God allows he had a reason for it . Whenever you stumble don't STAY down ask for forgiveness and move on he said he'll forgive us 70 times 7 no human can sin so much time in a day it's impossible that's why he gave us times beyond us .. I had the same problem things keep appearing in my thoughts even when I am praying and I rebuke it and keep praying and asking God to search me and cleanse me from things that is none of him .. SEEK God earnestly ,read your bible , PRAY and faste ,avoid watching certain movies, avoid listening to certain songs, avoid certain company and conversation that is not of God keep your mind fully on God . PRAY for a discerning sperit .. .MINISTRIES ON RU-vid HAS HELP ME A LOT I HAVE LEARN SO MUCH... EVERY THING IS WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE

Amen and amen praise God

Amen to that speak your truth 🙌🙏

I have a few words of encouragement in the midst of what's going on. It might sound wierd, but it is for real and I thought that it would be important to say it. Its long because I've tried to and any faqs! Hopefully this will answer some of those nagging questions - Why can't evil be forgiven and let off, how is the whole "Jesus dying" thing really relevant to anything? To you? if you still have any questions let me know x Do you ever struggle? Or doubt that God Loves You After what you've done? Do you wonder if He even exists for that matter? Read this: Every one of us have lied, stolen (even tiny things count as stealing), spoken badly to our parents and had embarrassing and detestable thoughts in our thought life. The Bible calls this "sin", the breaking of God's laws. You might think, so what? Everyone lies and thinks bad things about others! Its human! You're right. That's exactly what the Bible says, we're "born into sin" and that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" - Romans 3:23 What is that "glory", morally speaking? Well, the opposite of human nature and desires. Not lying, not stealing, and having a perfect thought life is God's standard for us. But if its God's standard and we were made in "God's image", Why don't we meet it? Well, Remember Adam and Eve and when they sinned. Before sin they were perfect in thought word and DEED completely, but after the first sin occured due to Satan's tempting in the Garden, it destroyed that part of us that was morally perfect and in perfect harmony with God's morals, standard, and love. So while we kept certain things, the ability to be thinking individuals with unique personalities, the moral part (affecting how our thoughts, actions and personalities operate) was damaged. To the point where we are "opposed" to God, hence His nature and standards being the opposite of what we see as reasonable or possible. The Bible even makes it clear that "apart from God you can do nothing" - John 15:5. Without Him, it will 100% feel "opposite", unreasonable and alien to us. Only WITH Him can we gain victory in these things. Why doesn't God just let sin off and leave it? The Bible describes God as a "righteous judge", many wonder why God doesn't just let sin off and leave it, but He can't. Why? That's like a if a judge let off a murderer who broke the state law. Everyone would attack that judge and call Him corrupt, saying that he had not done right and should be fired for failing to punish the murderer for his evil. AND to completely love and be good as God is, means you need to, in turn, hate all forms of evil. You can't truly love good unless you hate the existence of evil. This means that God needed, as a righteous judge to punish sin with the ultimate penalty of death - expressing His hatred of evil - and separation from His presence forever. Hence Hell. "The soul that sins shall die (in Hell and suffer damnation)" - Ezekiel 18:20 But God, who is also love, did not want to see His creation tortured and cut off from Him. He cares so much for is that He couldn't bear to see us fall into Satans hands and suffer death, even though we broke the law and deserve to bear the guilt, pain and be cut off from perfection forever through damnation. Because of justice, God could not leave sin and evil unpunished, BUT because of LOVE, God provided someone else to take that punishment on our behalf, satisfying both justice (by punishing the evil committed), and love (by sparing OUR lives) despite our sin. God sent His own SON - think about that. His *Son*, the one whom He loved infinitely (the same way He loves us). God allowed Him to take the pain we deserved, He took ALL of Gods wrath for every single sin you and I have committed. He was punished brutally and completely as if He was the picture of mankind's sin itself so that we do not have to be punished. Back in the courtroom scenario: He paid the "fine" at His own expense (His life had to be morally perfect on this Earth, then He had to be killed as a sinless sacrifice on our behalf). So when He returns to remove all evil from the face of the Earth, we can be spared and free because Christ has already BEEN punished on our behalf. He then rose again on the third day, conquering not only life and sin and temptation, but DEATH. "I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live (immortally and eternally in Heaven when I return)" - John 11:25,26 ALL we have to do is accept it by faith. Faith alone in Christ alone. Religion = rules to be saved The gospel = Christ saved us already we just have to believe it by faith. If you lack faith (as I did before), pray. He will make it strong it time. Trust Him as you would trust those close to you. He knows you even better than that. He created you and knows you inside out. ...WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? What does it actually mean for us? It means we can be completely free from the penalty of damnation. Not only that but we can be restored to Him and recreated into His moral image AGAIN as long as we accept Jesus having paid the price for us and accept Him as our Lord, the one who is in the front seat of our lives. He has a plan for your life, He's created you for a purpose. Just remember that. A purpose that includes being recreated into His image, one you can only accomplish through Him and reliance on His power and by following HIS way of life. What does this new way of life entail? It entails love, true love and service and aid to others, to "love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength" and "love your neighbour as you love yourself" Matthew 22:37, 39. Sharing the message of Christ's death, resurrection and soon return on this Earth to give justice OR mercy depending on what the person chose. Sound "opposite" again? God knows it sounds opposite, which is why, as The Bible states, this is NOT something we can do alone. It's not in our nature. We need a new nature in the front seat, and the first step is to repent (turn from and reject our sin, pursuing the opposite direction and drawing close to God) Christ will give us an actual DESIRE to do these things. Through the Holy Spirit, sent by Him to us after the ascension. He speaks to us through thoughts of love and truth and conviction, verses, ideas, prayers and He guides us so that we gain a desire to follow God and be able to do these "opposite" things through Him. "With man it is impossible, but with God, NOTHING is impossible!" - Matthew 19:26 What is the way FOR though? Firstly its to save you from sin - the only way to gain victory over sin and not have it as your master is through having Christ as your master and following His aid to resist the devil's temptations. Christ lived down here for 33 years suffering EVERY FORM of temptation that you have ever faced - "who in every respect [has] been tempted as we are, yet without sin" Hebrews 4:15. Therefore He is able to help us through our struggles. When the devil knows people have left his camp, he always tries harder with more temptations and evil attacks. BUT - His way is also there to guard and teach you daily in the midst of this (and despite this) sinful, selfish world. The path He wants you to walk is a path of committment and love - its not about rules and regulations to save us - what Christ did GAVE us salvation. All we need is faith. The rest, the "fruits of good works (the will to obey and follow Him)", are what come through true, maturing faith. It's all about faith and the relationship God wants with you just like before sin arrived. God preferred His own Son to be tortured And killed to give a chance to us (who broke His law of perfection) so that we can live as His children again. He wants us to love and trust and worship Him. What if I still find myself sinning after I have accepted Christ? That's why Christ died, For our sin. His death doesn't fix us in a snap like that, but it does protect us from the damnation that our past, present and future sins would bring without Jesus. It's a process - a lifelong process - of God bringing you back to Him, away from the destructive pleasures of sin (greed, selfish temptations, trampling on people to gain). This process takes a *lifetime*, as it does for all, but NEVER give up, when you fall, know Christ paid for that sin you committed already - just acknowledge your sin and ask for forgiveness - and you can get back up again because He already bore your guilt and shame. Regardless of the darkness you are in or the extent or frequency of the sins you have committed or will commit, regardless of how doubtful you may feel, know that Jesus UNDERSTANDS completely and He is faithful. "those who come to Me, I will by no means cast out" - John 6:37 ...HOW DO I LEARN MORE? Don't know where to start? Note down the Gospel of "John", or "Luke" (if you want a more detailed account of it all). Remember that He will "NEVER - and that means never - leave you, NOR forsake you" - Deuteronomy 31:6 Regardless of what goes on down here, God knows, Jesus has been down here and felt all the emotions you are feeling. You can go to Him with them and be assured that He loves you and is for you. Even in the storm, God is still there, walking on the water alongside you! Keep your heart open to Him and remember that if we pray for Christ to enter our lives, He will. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotten Son, that whomever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life". - John 3:16 Thanks for reading if you did.

Rowhan Celti.. I know what you mean, ist not easy to see the condition off the world is 😕 If you can find friends who can incourage you or via RU-vid deliverance prayers might help to.

You are not alone. The devil tempt each and everyone of us. No one is perfect. Just know you confessing and trying very hard not to be heed to temptations God will give YOU give US strength to over power satan temptations. Keep strong, keep praying, keep trusting God. Speak with friends of Godly faith that will always encourage you to do the right things. Let go of friends who constantly encourage you to do the bad things. God will help you overcome one day. Just keep believing, praying and trusting God.

You struggle because God gave us free will. The choice to choose the right road or the wrong one. We do fall at times but God is always there waiting for us to return back to him. God is LOVE ❤️ and will never turn his back on you for he is our creator and Jesus died for our sins. Except Jesus into your heart and ask him for forgiveness and I promise you he will get you through your darkest times.

we can see from the beginning of the Scriptures that much has happened that is the very opposite of what God wants, for humanity and all living creatures. Many (though not all) of these spiritual and physical processes will be resolved at the end of the time of tribulation, then the earth will begin to be restored, and humanity will be helped to learn to live in more peaceful ways unfortunately in this time and place, this milieu as it were, there is so much that is contrary to what God wants and ultimately what is good, but it helps at least for us to understand this is definitely not God's will, this is the very opposite of what God wants let's keep trying to learn through the teachings good ways to live, most of all trying to learn to be kind and understanding with others (if carefully at times in a dangerous and saddened world, Matthew 10:16) He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? (Micah 6:8) (Psalm 37:11) (Luke 6:35 - 36)

I wrote a song called You Are Not Alone- Kelisha Robinson. I pray you are encouraged, keep your eyes fixed on Jesus.

How to get back in his care if you greived Him and attacked and Spiritually stripped

@@TriciaRP I too sinned abominably for years (addiction to pornography, got entangled with occultic activities like astrology, and even harboured hatred towards the idea of God). I've suffered horrible demonic attacks. I never thought I could be healed or forgiven, but Jesus showed me differently. He truly is the way the truth and the life. What helped me was to beg the LORD sincerely for forgiveness for my sins. I read the Gospel, pray often, and ask the Holy Spirit for guidance in everything. My life has changed alot since doing these things. If he can help heal a broken wreck like me, he can heal anyone. You can pray to the LORD to heal you. Recite Psalm 91 every day before you pray, and before you sleep. Recite Ephesians 6 with all your heart at least once a day. Confess your sins to the LORD and pour out your heart to Jesus. Read Psalms that resonate with your life situation. God knows your heart and if you confess and speak to him honestly, he will listen to you and help you to set your life in Godly order. I pray that God will heal you, in Jesus Christ's Almighty name, Amen! Micah 7:9 KJV - I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness. Matthew 11:29 KJV - Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

Not only that but we can be restored to Him and recreated into His moral image AGAIN as long as we accept Jesus having paid the price for us and accept Him as our Lord, the one who is in the front seat of our lives. He has a plan for your life, He's created you for a purpose. Just remember that. A purpose that includes being recreated into His image, one you can only accomplish through Him and reliance on His power and by following HIS way of life. What does this new way of life entail? It entails love, true love and service and aid to others, to "love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength" and "love your neighbour as you love yourself" Matthew 22:37, 39. Sharing the message of Christ's death, resurrection and soon return on this Earth to give justice OR mercy depending on what the person chose. Sound "opposite" again? God knows it sounds opposite, which is why, as The Bible states, this is NOT something we can do alone. It's not in our nature. We need a new nature in the front seat, and the first step is to repent (turn from and reject our sin, pursuing the opposite direction and drawing close to God) Christ will give us an actual DESIRE to do these things. Through the Holy Spirit, sent by Him to us after the ascension. He speaks to us through thoughts of love and truth and conviction, verses, ideas, prayers and He guides us so that we gain a desire to follow God and be able to do these "opposite" things through Him. "With man it is impossible, but with God, NOTHING is impossible!" - Matthew 19:26 What is the way FOR though? Firstly its to save you from sin - the only way to gain victory over sin and not have it as your master is through having Christ as your master and following His aid to resist the devil's temptations. Christ lived down here for 33 years suffering EVERY FORM of temptation that you have ever faced - "who in every respect [has] been tempted as we are, yet without sin" Hebrews 4:15. Therefore He is able to help us through our struggles. When the devil knows people have left his camp, he always tries harder with more temptations and evil attacks. BUT - His way is also there to guard and teach you daily in the midst of this (and despite this) sinful, selfish world. The path He wants you to walk is a path of committment and love - its not about rules and regulations to save us - what Christ did GAVE us salvation. All we need is faith. The rest, the "fruits of good works (the will to obey and follow Him)", are what come through true, maturing faith. It's all about faith and the relationship God wants with you just like before sin arrived. God preferred His own Son to be tortured And killed to give a chance to us (who broke His law of perfection) so that we can live as His children again. He wants us to love and trust and worship Him. What if I still find myself sinning after I have accepted Christ? That's why Christ died, For our sin. His death doesn't fix us in a snap like that, but it does protect us from the damnation that our past, present and future sins would bring without Jesus. It's a process - a lifelong process - of God bringing you back to Him, away from the destructive pleasures of sin (greed, selfish temptations, trampling on people to gain). This process takes a *lifetime*, as it does for all, but NEVER give up, when you fall, know Christ paid for that sin you committed already - just acknowledge your sin and ask for forgiveness - and you can get back up again because He already bore your guilt and shame. Regardless of the darkness you are in or the extent or frequency of the sins you have committed or will commit, regardless of how doubtful you may feel, know that Jesus UNDERSTANDS completely and He is faithful. "those who come to Me, I will by no means cast out" - John 6:37 ...HOW DO I LEARN MORE? Don't know where to start? Note down the Gospel of "John", or "Luke" (if you want a more detailed account of it all). Remember that He will "NEVER - and that means never - leave you, NOR forsake you" - Deuteronomy 31:6 Regardless of what goes on down here, God knows, Jesus has been down here and felt all the emotions you are feeling. You can go to Him with them and be assured that He loves you and is for you. Even in the storm, God is still there, walking on the water alongside you! Keep your heart open to Him and remember that if we pray for Christ to enter our lives, He will. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotten Son, that whomever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life". - John 3:16 Thanks for reading if you did.

@Marc Swanson Deuteronomy 7:10 but repays those who hate Him to their faces, to destroy them; He will not delay with him who hates Him, He will repay him to his face

@Marc Swanson Psalm 139:21 Do I not hate those who hate You, O Lord? And do I not loathe those who rise up against You.

@Marc Swanson me Read Proverbs 3:7-31 Proverbs 3:7-31 GNB Never let yourself think that you are wiser than you are; simply obey the LORD and refuse to do wrong. If you do, it will be like good medicine, healing your wounds and easing your pains. Honour the LORD by making him an offering from the best of all that your land produces. If you do, your barns will be filled with grain, and you will have too much wine to be able to store it all. When the LORD corrects you, my child, pay close attention and take it as a warning. The LORD corrects those he loves, as parents correct a child of whom they are proud. Happy is anyone who becomes wise - who gains understanding. There is more profit in it than there is in silver; it is worth more to you than gold. Wisdom is more valuable than jewels; nothing you could want can compare with it. Wisdom offers you long life, as well as wealth and honour. Wisdom can make your life pleasant and lead you safely through it. Those who become wise are happy; wisdom will give them life. The LORD created the earth by his wisdom; by his knowledge he set the sky in place. His wisdom caused the rivers to flow and the clouds to give rain to the earth. Hold on to your wisdom and insight, my child. Never let them get away from you. They will provide you with life - a pleasant and happy life. You can go safely on your way and never even stumble. You will not be afraid when you go to bed, and you will sleep soundly through the night. You will not have to worry about sudden disasters, such as come on the wicked like a storm. The LORD will keep you safe. He will not let you fall into a trap. Whenever you possibly can, do good to those who need it. Never tell your neighbours to wait until tomorrow if you can help them now. Don't plan anything that will hurt your neighbours; they live beside you, trusting you. Don't argue with others for no reason when they have never done you any harm. Don't be jealous of violent people or decide to act as they do
