When we discover that we are under pressure we eventually realise that we are living in a war zone. It is not that we desire to be at war, but that darkness is at war with the Kingdom of God and therefore at war with us. Our dear Father protects us to a degree and will always limit what comes against us, but sooner or later we realise that we can do something about our situation through prayer.

We have a tremendous advantage. We were recreated in Jesus Christ as He took up residence in our spirit. In order to take advantage of this we need to understand how to realign our lives with Him, where He is headed, how He sees things and how His...
Near the beginning of His teaching, Jesus introduces a mysterious list that His disciples may not have really understood until the power came at Pentecost a couple of years later. Please have a look through Matthew 5:1-16 again if you would like...
There are times when we Christians feel deserted by those we normally relate with well and nobody seems able to understand what is going on with us, even our spouse/best friend and family. These times can be frustrating. At these times we can feel...
All sons and daughters of God have pastoral and prophetic ability. It just exists in different strengths in each of us because we are each uniquely made, which is our Father's pleasure.
You are on a journey of knowing your Father. Jesus said something quite profound in John 17:3And this is life eternal, that they might know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.
