Run With Christ

The spiritual realm is very real... even though we cannot see it, it is there. The word of God reminds us that  our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 6:12) It is therefore that we are encouraged in His word to put on the FULL ARMOUR OF GOD so that when the day of evil comes, we may be able to stand our ground, and after we have done everything, to stand, and having done all, to stand firm (Ephesians 6:13). I was always taught that the devil cannot hear our thoughts so if I want to chase him away, I have to do so audibly in the Name of Jesus. I learned to say it out loud since I was a little girl BUT I did not always speak with the authority I have in Christ Jesus. This year I really decided to dig a little deeper in to the theme of spiritual warfare because since the spiritual re...

I had this dream a while back and I have decided to share it: It was dusk but the night sky was really dark. There was no moon but I did see stars, many stars coming together in one place. All the stars in the night sky, grouped together above the earth. I grabbed binoculars to get a better look (In this dream, the binoculars were more like telescopes in the shape of normal binoculars). I looked through it and saw fiery comets and meteorites coming towards the earth with immense speed. I got such a fright, I pulled the binoculars ways from my eyes but I looked through it again. Again I saw the burning comets and meteorites approaching earth with miraculous speed and then I looked beyond the comets and meteorites (as if there was a zoom feature on the binoculars)... I saw complete chaos on earth. The planet was broken into pieces (as if torn apart) and each piece of broken earth had some sort of destruction upon it. I saw tornadoes, war, fire, destruction, negativity... absolute CHAOS...

Jesus defeated death by rising up after three days. This is marked as the final day of Easter. Final... the word bothers me. Final usually marks the end of something or the completion of something. Jesus' death made us new and therefore it is the beginning of new life. What does the word of God say? Matthew 28:1-10 (NIV) Jesus Has Risen 28 After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. 2 There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4 The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men. 5 The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly...
