We are all going through it.

As I continue to talk to others about the Lord I begin to hear a common theme on why they are not saved. People tend to look at Christians and think once we are saved we don't go through the same struggle as those who are not saved go through. Our flesh is still part of us and we all have battles we are going dealing with until Jesus returns.  Are you ready for spiritual war? Ready or not we were all born in it and battle everyday between the flesh and the spirit.

The enemy continues to fool the world, we must break the cycle of LIES and believe the Truth which is Jesus Christ. Like I said before we are all going through battles and the LIE that those who are not saved continue to believe is that of our Salvation. What Salvation is defined as is DELIVERANCE from sin and its consequences by faith in Jesus Christ. For example Bill may see his friend John at local bar. Bill is unsaved and John is saved. John has been battling alcohol addiction for years and continues to struggle to the hold the enemy has on him. John is saved so he is covered in the Blood of Christ. His sins in the past, present, and future are already forgiven through Jesus Christ. John's Salvation was paid for once Jesus died on the cross and John put his faith in Jesus. Bill sees John at the bar and knows John is a Christian. This is where the enemy begins to work to Bill believes the LIE. Bill says to himself that is why I don't go to church and am not saved. I see John over here at the bar today and then at church on Sunday. Bill is believing the LIE of the enemy on Salvation. Bill sees John and says to himself John is at the same bar I am at so what is the difference. Bill only sees in the flesh and doesn't see in the spirit. Bill would rather continue doing things on his own and not getting help from The Lord. He would rather believe a LIE of the enemy than accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior. Bill looks at John and finds a reason to justify why he isn't saved, he also is willing to risk his own Salvation because he believes a LIE. I have to come back to Ephesians 6:12, our battle is not flesh and blood it is with powers of darkness in Heavenly Places, so Bill is fighting a enemy he can't even see. He is seeing with the fleshly eyes to justify matters of the spirit. The Holy Spirit fights the battle for us in the Heavenly places and is a gift that God gives freely to all his children. The Holy Spirit lives in John tries to guide him in the right direction and leads him to asking The Lord for forgivness of his sins.

The point of the story that we ALL are gonna go through it until Jesus returns. We ALL battle everday with our flesh and spirit.It is all about your relationship with God. Whatever Christians and non Christians are doing is between them and God alone. Who are we to judge? Whether you believe in the devil or not he is still gonna attack you Christian or not.  Don't be like Bill, put your FAITH in Jesus Christ and get the gift of Salvation. If anyone need prayer I am availible just shoot me a message. Let the road to Salvation start today. May God Bless!!

Tomorrow is not Promised.

I have decided to take a break in my testimony and write about what I am feeling today because it aint about me it's about Jesus. I was thinking on what to write about and The Holy Spirit said Tomorrow is not Promised. I love all my peoples and if you know me, talked to me, or just friended me on this Facebook I want to see you in Heaven when I get there. I don't want to get there see all my people and say where is so and so or what happened to my boy. Tomorrow is not promised so we must live each day to the fullest but in order to live life to the fullest we need our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The devil is a liar and has fooled people into believing a life without Jesus can be great. Some have successful lives and think that since they have a good life they do not need Jesus. Jesus died for you and me but if we do not accept him as our Lord and Savior then he died in vain. We are dealing with a defeated enemy who will do whatever it takes to bring anyone down with him. Do not believe the LIE the devil is spitting in your ears. If you know me and are not saved Jesus Loves you and wants a relationship with you. I love you and want to see you in Paradise were we will celebrate the victory together.

If you are reading this and are not saved send me a message and I will pray with you. Tomorrow is not promised and you need Jesus today. God Bless!!!

My testimony part 6.

I took some time off from writing and started hitting the books. I hit the Word hard and also read a few other books on spirituallity. As I read I began to give glory to God, he gave me a way when there was no way. God became my refuge in the time in my life where it seemed like I lost it all. The Lord now also has given me some answers to what was going on in my life. God is good all the time and I love him with all my heart and soul.

Now my story continues and I want to start off by saying the devil is a lie. Again we are not battling flesh and blood but principalities, against powers, against rulers of darkness, and against wickedness in heavenly places Eph 6:12. This is one of my favorite bible verses and was soon caught up working with these forces of darkness that I despised. I never thought that if you were saved and babtized you can become possesed or oppressed. These evil forces at work can bind the saved as well as the unsaved if you leave a door open for them to operate in. In my case I had a strong love for Lord and prayed for spiritual gifts. I read in corinthians as Christians we should ask for spiritual gifts to help build the body of Christ. I prayed and prayed  then soon some gifts started to manefest themself. That is where the enemy used my spirituallity against me, since I wanted the gifts so bad when the gifts came I thought they were from God because they were supernatural in nature. I didn't question it and that is just one way the enemy slid their way in my life and began to bind me. I thought my gifts were coming from God but in fact they were coming from the enemy. I believed God had answered my prayers but at the same time I began to feel emotions that were not of mine. I would get angry alot more and also had the feeling of being above the law. Where were these feelings coming from?  The enemy was gaining more ground in my life slowly binding me and affecting my emotions.

They say with knowledge comes responsibilities and it is soo true. I thought I knew soo much, but when you are dealing with the spiritual realm I knew nothing. The enemy will use emotions, desires, and anything else to find their way in our lives and keep us bound to the sins of our flesh. We have to trust in the Lord and let the Holy Spirit do the battling for us. Glory be to God and I thank the Lord Jesus Christ for breaking the bond that the devil had on me. I was blind and now I see, so my story continues. God Bless!!!

My testimony part 5.

I was going through alot and nobody understood what was happening. Something was triggered in my life and I was given the ability to receive the spiritual gifts I had prayed for. The gifts that I had been given we specific for me and everyday I was moving in the spirit. My family has no history of mental illness but all of a sudden I was given the tag of being bi-polar. I learned that people tend to fear what they don't understand and at this point nobody definately understood me.

The war was going on in the heavenly places and it seemed they were all out to get me. The spirit gave me the ability to see the demonic activities that were going on with music and television especially. I remember turning on the tv and flipping it to Jerry Springer and seeing several of the guests on that show who were demon possesed. All those stories on that show promoted multiple partners and now it made sense why. I would turn it to MTV and watch a video and see some of the biggest stars possesed. The videos were just tools they used to influence the masses to spread their evil message. It was like a modern day sort of witchcraft or spell which people were blinded to because all they seen was their favorite star or was singing their favorite song. Again from what I saw I would try to talk to others about it but they would not listen, it began to get frustrating. At the time I was slowly trying to wheen off the remaining secular music that I had left and transition into more positive music. My music was the hardest thing for me to give up, I quit smoking cold turkey as well as drinking. Music was different, I just couldn't give it up like that  and it had a hold on me. I I left that door open in my life for the enemy to slide right in.

The road for me now begins to turn downhill because I soon became what I was battling. All the talking I did was on deaf ears and soon began to walk on the darkside. It was the easiest course of action so I took it. I began to run with the enemy. I gave up because the battle seemed too big for me. I still continued to pray and talk to the Lord but soon became overwhelmed by what I was seeing in the spiritual realm. Writing about last year the more I write the more I want to write more.  Even though plenty of bad things happened last year, I still learned from it and thank God that he brought me through it and never left my side. My story continues and I will keep everyone posted. May God Bless you all!!

My testimony part 4

At this point in my life everyone is panicking around me. I was still being completely guided by the Holy Spirit and everyday I would see the world for what it really was. I let go of all that I cared for in order to follow the Lord. I walked out on my job in order to free myself to do the Lords work full time. I couldn't function without help from the spirit because I still was living each day with the ability to see in the spiritual realm. I felt the Lords presence all times and he gave me peace in these times of confusion. My life became completely out of balance and I was loosing my sense of reality.  Everyday I would see things of the supernatural and this soon affected what was going on in the natural.

Everyone thought I was going crazy but did not understand what I was going through. My wife began to panic because I walked out of my job and began to do things that were out of character. People around me began to worry about me also everyone seemed to be an expert on what was going on with me. The enemy was hard at work trying to break my mind down. For me it felt like Jesus could come back at anytime. I was seeing evil spirits, fallen angels, and who knows what else.  The Lord gave me the ability to understand this spiritual war but I did not trust in him to fight for me. Evil spirits were all around and had stronghold on my family and friends.

As I look back on what happened last year in my life I want to say thank you to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for bringing me out of the depths of darkness and back into the light. I thank you for the bad as well as the good and opening my eyes to the truth of this world. I thank God for putting me through these trials which brought me even closer to him and taught me to put my complete trust in him in everything I do. I got much more to talk about and will post more soon. All glory be to God and may God bless you all.

My testimony part 3.

At this point in my life I was living all out spiritual warfare. I now understood the spiritual gift that God had placed in my life. I would see good and evil spirits every from church to the corner store and even would smell sulfur when demons presence was nearby. I now was living life under a new set of rules and regulations that I had no idea how to operate.  I didn't trust in the holy spirit to guide me in my times of need and battle for me in these heavenly places. I also began to regress on the man I had become and revert back to the man I use to be in my younger days. I was a walking talking contradiction and read the bible but did not apply anything I learned in the WORD.

With all this going all my mental state was deteriorating and the enemy was in full assault on getting my mind. I began to fight back the enemy which was a spirit in the flesh. I knew the verse the apostle Paul said that we do not fight flesh and blood but I still fought anyway. When I would sense evil spirit in people I would attack. From people at work, to friends, to family, and even the police I feared no man but God and attacked whenever I would sense the enemy. That attitude got me into trouble fast and soon was in conflict with family and the law. Nobody understood what I was going through, I seen it as a spiritual awakening and the spiritual gifts that God promised were now a reality. Others seen me as crazy, mentally unstable, and bipolar.
 
I am going to end it today and want to say that when Jesus walked he was constantly casting demons out of people. We read the stories in the bible and sometimes feel it cant happen in our times. God showed me the ugliness of this world, demons are still possessing people and keeping people away from the blessings that God has promised us. History repeats itself and though times have changed the enemy is still at work in our day trying to steer us away from Gods blessings. Time is running out and we have to accept Christ as our Savior. Be baptized and receive the wonderful gift of the Holy Spirit who does the batting for us in these heavenly places. The war for our souls is REAL and it time to get on the winning team with Jesus Christ. May God Bless you all!!

My testimony part 2.

My life was going downhill fast and I was also loosing my sense of reality. I was like a fish out of water that was trying to walk. I began scaring the my friends and family with some of my behavior. I began to chain smoke cigaretts and also began to smoke weed as well. I also started drinking again and  also began to give in to my flesh while enjoying the moment. All that I had learned was out the door, I soon was becoming under the influence of drugs and alcohol but also spiritual forces as well. I was loosing the spiritual war and was very weak mentally as well as physically.

Spiritual warfare was in full swing at this point. The world around me wasn't the same anymore and now the spiritual realm was a part of my everyday life. With friends and family I would often see evil spirits influencing their lives and it was all around me. My eyes were opened and my spiritual senses were heightened. I was in Tacoma but it wasn't Tacoma anymore.

The apostle Paul said we do not fight flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spirituall wickednes in high places. This bible verse is one of my favorites because I was living it, God revealed to me the spiritual realm and he gave me the abilty to see the truth about whats going on in our world today.  As I talked to people about it they thought I was crazy and did not understand what I was talking about. I soon began to talk to everyone about the Lord because in what I was seeing I felt that time is running out. The more I talked about the Lord the more the spiritual attacks increased.

Thats it for today and will post more later on this week. May God Bless You!!
