virgovixen · 10-06-2005, 10:52 AM

1John: "5 God is light and there is no darkness in him at all. 6 So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness. We are not living in the truth. 7 But if we are living in the light of God's presence. just as Christ is, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, clenses us from every sin."

hopealwayz · 10-25-2005, 08:43 PM

hopealwayz · 10-30-2005, 08:59 PM

You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and
surround me with songs of deliverance.
-- Psalm 32:7

pumpkinangel · 10-30-2005, 11:49 PM

I am so thankful there are Christians who know this cross I bare. I have heard the voice of the Holy Spirit and have chosen to sin anyway. God is still chasing after me and yet I run from him still. The enemy has me convinced I am not worthy. I allow it and this is what perpetuates my bondage. I have not sought him and read his word. I am so scared of the Lord who I know is good. My favorite verse is "but for the Grace of God therefore I go" I know this is trurth because I would be dead or have gotten the life I deserve. I am so confused right now and have not been able to achieve any real length of sobriety. I keep on failing and I do it when the fear consumes me. I know fear is not of God but I do not feel that way and I have made my life worse since I began to get sober. Can anyone share with me how and why they finally surrendered. I am so scared to be honest with myself and turn from my sin because it is all I feel I am. I have so much guilt and have been willfully disobediant my whole life. I have lived this way for so long that I know nothing else. I know God has allowed me to reach this low point so I will come to him. Why can I not trust in him.

virgovixen · 10-31-2005, 07:04 AM

Humble yourselves before God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7

hopealwayz · 11-01-2005, 08:40 PM

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world
does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world.
On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We
demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against
the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it
obedient to Christ.
-- 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

hopealwayz · 11-01-2005, 08:42 PM

Father, please use me to defeat the power of the devil and his
influence on the lives of the ones that I love and on myself. In
Jesus' name. Amen.

hopealwayz · 11-01-2005, 08:43 PM

Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may
bring forth.
-- Proverbs 27:1

hopealwayz · 11-01-2005, 08:44 PM

Father, my tomorrows all rest in your hands. I ask that I can be
useful to you today; courageous enough not to worry about tomorrow,
and loyal enough to not waver in my love for you and my commitment
to you. In Jesus' name. Amen.

hopealwayz · 11-02-2005, 06:13 AM

I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my
God, in whom I trust."
-- Psalm 91:2

hopealwayz · 11-03-2005, 03:35 PM

For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by
the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness
of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in
sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law
might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful
nature but according to the Spirit.
-- Romans 8:3-4

hopealwayz · 11-04-2005, 10:39 AM

We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that
God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
