TRUE REALITY

Reality. 
Google defines reality as "the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them."
As believers of Christ, we often fail to see the true reality. Why I say true reality is because we often think what we see with our mortal eyes is the reality, but it is not so for a believer as there is a much more real "kingdom of God" and it's enemy the "kingdom of Darkness". 

The truth is that when we accept Jesus as our personal savior we become a part of the kingdom of Heaven and we are not just an average human being. As we accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour we not only achieve eternal life but also receive citizenship from heaven. Heavenly citizenship does not mean we can just while away our time. It means much more that. As the kingdom of God is at war with the kingdom of darkness at all times, we are also to fight with the dark kingdom or in simply the devil. The battles we face in the spiritual realm manifests itself in our lives, but we fail to realize that it is a spiritual battle as we are not aware of the fact that we are to fight the devil in the spiritual realm.
 
Let me explain what I mean, in Ephesians 6:12 Paul says like this

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of [a]the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 

But we think we are wrestling against flesh and blood as the battle manifests itself to you only in the flesh. Before I give an example you must know that demons can control our emotions and our reactions to certain situations. These demons enter into humans as they are bodiless creatures and need a body to live in. let me take the example from Matthew 16:22


And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This shall never happen to you.”But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.
Here we see Jesus addressing Peter as satan. What Jesus was really doing was that he spoke to the demon inside of his disciple. The demon was a rebuking spirit inside of peter that made him speak in such a way against Jesus. But Jesus knowing the TRUE REALITY of the spiritual realm spoke to the devil that he was a hindrance to His work. Similarly, we may find some of the people whom we interact with doing or saying certain things they must not, in those situations pray in your mind against those demons by the authority given to you by God. 

You may ask this question,” how will I know what demon is acting behind the person?”. Well, the answer to that question will be –“ask the holy spirit and he will reveal it to you” also in your personal prayer remember to ask for the DISCERNING SPIRIT, by the way, it the character of the Holy Spirit, not a demon.

JESUS 2.0

  When we say the word ‘Jesus’ what are some of the things that come to our mind. If we are to list them it would be something like, ·       God ·       Church ·       Gospel ·       Worship ·       Christianity ·       Christian ·       Deity  And more ideas similar to what I have listed here. All of the above-listed ideas and things do tell something about Jesus and is a part of who He is and what He does.

LOVE: PART 1 - GOD'S LOVE

The God we serve, Jehovah is full of love and in fact we can call himself as love for he sent his one and only son JESUS who is the complete representation of LOVE. When Jesus was on this world he showed love and only love. He preached and walked a life of love. He was and is the perfect example of love in flesh.  All of us are very familiar with the blockbuster movie, Avengers: Endgame. The whole marvel Avengers infinity war and endgame is based on the concept of the five stones that hold in them the most powerful forms of energy. The movie clearly explains how the one with the stone becomes the most powerful being in the whole of universe. As you are reading this you would probably wondering why I am talking about the avengers and the stones, well it is for you must know that every person in this world has one form of energy that’s way more powerful than all those 5 stones combined and that is; THE LOVE OF GOD Many- a-times we fail to realize the fact that we hold...

KNOW THE SHEPHERD'S VOICE

As we take on each day of our lives, we sometimes find ourselves stuck in some situations or some emotions. There were times when I questioned God why all this happens. Why do I not find myself moving forward although the days just go by? In those moments of our life we just feel as though we have lost our way and just can’t hear the voice of god in our lives. In those places of our lives we just feel as though we are in the middle of nowhere. Maybe as you are reading this, you are in one of those moments of your life. But I want to encourage you and say that there is still hope in Jesus and that this situation is so much different when we see it from “God’s eye view”. Let me explain what I really mean by “God’s eye view”. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.                                         ...
