Holy Spirit: Strategist

For my final Holy Spirit post in the month of January, I want to introduce the Holy Spirit as a strategist. He was present at creation, hovering (strategically planning and thinking) over the face of the deep; He strategized how to spread the gospel by sending Paul, Peter, and others out to different cities and forbidding them from going to other places, and He sent Philip to preach the good news to an Ethiopian eunuch and then transported him away.

Not Alone: Come out of that CAVE!

You are not alone in your struggle. Sometimes we think we are the only person who is struggling. However, the Word tells us that everyone is being stalked. 1 Peter 5:9 says Believers throughout the world are undergoing the same struggles. You are not alone.

Resist means to exert oneself so as to counteract or defeat or withstand the force or effect of something or someone. Last week we started a series entitled ‘You are being stalked.’  Our primary scripture, 1 Peter 5:8 tells us, “That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour” (AMP). This week we will continue with the second strategy used to defeat the stalker. We must resist the enemy’s attacks against us. How Read More
