Alive Again

The truth sets us free. I was really struggling over the years and God saved me from my iniquity. Not only has He saved me from the grips of death twice in my life, but also from self destruction through substances and self-harm over the years. Be sure to read my written testimony to see more of my journey and deliverance from counterfeit pleasures and deception.

Scriptural Reading

‘For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, ‘ 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 ESV

‘Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For 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. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. ‘ Ephesians 6:10-18 NIV

‘pray without ceasing, ‘ 1 Thessalonians 5:17 ESV

“They conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; for they did not love their lives to the point of death.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭12:11‬ ‭CSB‬

“Train up a child in the way he should go [teaching him to seek God’s wisdom and will for his abilities and talents], Even when he is old he will not depart from it.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭22:6‬ ‭AMP‬‬

‘ “For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it. ‘ Isaiah 55:10-11 ESV

‘I say to the unmarried and to widows: It is good for them if they remain as I am. But if they do not have self-control, they should marry, since it is better to marry than to burn with desire. ‘ 1 Corinthians 7:8-9 CSB

‘For a man’s ways are before the Lord ’s eyes, and he considers all his paths. ‘ Proverbs 5:21 CSB

‘ “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead of a fish? Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?” ‘ Luke 11:9-13 CSB

“I will place the key of the house of David on his shoulder; what he opens, no one can close; what he closes, no one can open.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭22:22‬ ‭CSB‬‬

““So do not be afraid of them, for nothing is hidden that will not be revealed [at the judgment], or kept secret that will not be made known [at the judgment]. What I say to you in the dark (privately), tell in the light (publicly); and what you hear whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops [to many people]. Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; but rather be afraid of Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two little sparrows sold for a copper coin? And yet not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered [for the Father is sovereign and has complete knowledge]. So do not fear; you are more valuable than many sparrows.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10:26-31‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus, We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:1, 28‬ ‭CSB‬‬
