God created sex for marriage between one man and one woman, for life. The devil has been trying to pervert it in every way possible, and the scriptures warn us that sin, although it is pleasurable for a season, when it is full grown it leads to death. Scripture specifically calls out homosexuality as an abomination, and Jesus in Matthew ch 5 calls out lust in the heart as bad as actual adultery. God wants us to live, and only in Christ is there life. We need Him every day to help us walk by the Spirit instead of the misdeeds of the flesh, being cleansed by Him and abiding in Him. Galatians 5 16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debaucher...

Prosperity teachers love to quote parts of Malachi ch3, but did you know that "3He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, and they will bring offerings in righteousness to the LORD. 4Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the LORD as in the days of old and as in former years."? God purifies us, and then we will bring Him pleasing offerings in righteousness. It's heart motive that God is looking at. He's looking for faith, hope, and love, and He must be our first love. In Jesus we have all of that, all thanks to the Father. Bearing good, eternal fruit of the Holy Spirit. What impurities (that keep people from bringing pleasing offerings in righteousness to the Lord) do you think God wants to remove? How can we use what we are currently stewards of to bear eternal spiritual fruit? Although we enjoy the benefits of our gifts from God, what is the purpose of our gifts ac...

The secrets are revealed even to the young and the simple if they have ears to hear what the Spirit of God is saying. God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. Humility comes from wisdom, all of which comes from God. Abiding in Christ Jesus and His words in us, we bear good fruit of the Spirit that lasts forever. He has much more to say to us as the Holy Spirit will continue to reveal to us if we do not harden our hearts. The kingdom of God, it is within you, in your midst, Christ in us the hope of glory. We have this treasure in earthen vessels. The hidden riches in secret places are nations and kingdoms waiting to be filled with God! Jesus must be Lord of all. The elements and nature desire to rejoice in the light of the Lord, and we are His body in the Earth. We are the light of the world because Jesus shines through us and we abide in Him. While the evil seek dar...
