Why Pray?

The Baptism in the Holy Spirit

michael — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 14:56:10 +0000

It is now time in our series of foundational studies to consider the Holy Spirit, and especially, the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, also referred to be some as "the Baptism of the Holy Spirit" although this is not technically correct. This subject forms part of the foundational doctrine of baptisms (see Hebrews 6:2). read more »

Spiritual Warfare and Breaking Curses

michael — Mon, 05 Feb 2007 03:03:49 +0000

Neglecting this vital area will cost you more than you can possibly calculate, especially you or your immediate forefathers have been involved in any kind of idolatry or occultism.

There are erroneous ideas about spiritual warfare that lead people to shout at all kinds of fallen angels they imagine to be binding countries, even while they themselves are blinded and deafened to the voice of God in their own lives. read more »

Think Like God, Act like God - part 2

michael — Sat, 08 May 2010 07:39:25 +0000

As you establish your life with God in prayer and meditate upon His Word, you spirit will start to come alive, or be quickened to God’s Word. As you go about your day, His Word will come to your mind as you encounter different situations. I use these opportunities to pray the Word. In this way we become aligned with God and we start to think like God and talk like God. read more »

What Did Jesus Say about the End of the Age?

We live in an age where people are feeling insecure about the future. This is really understandable, as a lot of things have been happening which really make you wonder how much longer things can go on as they are. read more »

Spiritual Warfare and Dealing with Demons

michael — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 14:13:49 +0000

Spiritual Warfare for the Christian is about resisting and overcoming the influence of Satan and his demons. If you are a real disciple of Jesus you will have to fight these evil powers. They will not leave you totally alone until you leave this earth and go to be with the Lord Jesus forever. They hate you and will always work to defile and if possible destroy you. That won't happen if you stay close to the Lord and take heed to His word. read more »

Prayer Teaching

michael — Sun, 04 Feb 2007 05:27:01 +0000

Prayer - is communication with God. The key to prayer is hearing God and also being heard by God. God won't listen if we are not sincere. We need to believe that he rewards those who seek Him. And we need to give ourselves fully to Him if we want to be sure of getting answers.

Spiritual Warfare Praying

michael — Tue, 06 Feb 2007 05:35:46 +0000

"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against
spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." (Ephesians 6:12)

Real Christians are involved in a spiritual conflict. This is a fight in which guns and tanks are of no use. Paul said, "we do not wrestle against flesh and blood". The conflict is not with people, or nations, but with Satan and his demons. We need to recognise that many times when people oppose us, the reason behind it is spiritual. read more »

Strategic Intercession

michael — Tue, 06 Feb 2007 05:58:22 +0000

All of us are called to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17). We are called to pray always and not lose heart (Luke 18:1). Yet God is ALSO interested in the quality and effectiveness of our prayer lives.

Jesus taught us to pray, "Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." The most effective prayers then are those that bring a manifestation of God's will as revealed in the Scriptures to the situations on earth.

God wants none to perish and be lost. read more »

Principles to Make your Home Group Grow

michael — Tue, 27 Feb 2007 12:24:20 +0000

The Holy Spirit has been putting great emphasis on the use of small groups for discipleship, outreach and other purposes. This is not surprising, especially when you consider that there are so many commands in the New Testament relating to things we do "one to another". How can we love one another as Jesus loved his disciples (John 13:34,35) unless there is an environment in which close relationships can develop?

The Example of Jesus

Jesus spent a lot of time with his disciples, because he loved them. They were with him both in public and in private. read more »
