Finally Overcome Fear! This morning, something hit me during my prayer time – all this fear! Emails overflowing with it. Fear is crippling, and let me tell you, I've battled panic attacks myself. But here's the thing: fear is a war we can win. This is for all you warriors out there. Fear is the enemy's weapon, but we have the armor of God (Ephesians 6:11). It's time to suit up! Romans 6:16 lays it out straight: we serve who we obey. Are we gonna let fear call the shots, or are we gonna answer to God? This fear we wrestle with? It's about our core beliefs.  Do we believe in God's word like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego staring down that fiery furnace? Fear wasn't their boss, and it doesn't have to be ours. Now, Revelation 21:8 tells a truth we can't ignore – fear is listed first among those who won't inherit the kingdom. That means overcoming fear is critical. We are called to be overcomers (Revelation)! Here's your battle plan: Renew your m...

On a prayer walk today the Lord impressed upon me ( strongly.... )  something that I need to share with you. 1   Peter was delivered through the prayers of people that weren't really expecting those prayers to be answered.  In fact, they were surprised that their corporate prayer actually yielded results  (see Acts 12:1-16). 2  Paul had faith in the power of corporate prayer.   Paul believed that God would change the course of his life through the prayers of fellow believers   (See Philemon 1:22; Romans 15:30-31) . 3  Jesus said that when we agree together we can ask according to His Name (i.e. His Nature, Character and Authority  - see Matthew 18:19-20) and it will be granted. Corporate prayer according to the good, perfect, or acceptable will of God (Romans 12:2) changes things.  When we pray in symphony as a group of believers we  pray the will of our Father in  heaven to be performed on earth.    He he...

From Buddhism to Jesus I have an amazing friend named Jonnathan Jonnathan has one of the most powerful testimonies of coming to faith in Jesus that I've ever heard. Jonnathan grew up as a Buddhist, even being selected by the Dalai Lama as a potential Buddhist monk when he was just 7 years old. However, his life took a radical turn toward Jesus in the most supernatural way. When Jonnathan was 23 years old, his world was crumbling around him. His dad had lost his life savings, they were about to lose their home and car, and his entire family had turned against him. The weight of it all caused Jonnathan to spiral into despair and even plan to take his own life with his dad's pistol.  But God had other plans. At the moment Jonnathan was about to end it all, there was a knock at the door. Two young Mormon missionaries said they had heard a voice telling them to come to Jonnathan's house, that there was a "little boy who has questions that need answers" found only in th...

God Can Breathe Life Back Into Your Dreams This morning, something incredible happened on my prayer walk. As I was getting some quiet time with the Lord, a revelation hit me like a bolt of lightning. I woke up with this strange feeling, like there was something I needed to remember. Then, I saw a crumpled piece of paper – a prophecy that God had given me way back in 2002! It was dirty, stained with coffee, and looked like it had been through the wringer. But there it was, a forgotten dream the Lord had placed on my heart. Here's the thing: that dream felt dead. It had been years, and nothing seemed to be happening. My mind started racing with doubts: "Why hasn't this come to pass? What went wrong?" But then, as I continued my walk, I noticed something else. I was standing at a beautiful spot, but there was a small stream separating me from the other side. My new shoes were nice, but I didn't want to get them dirty by crossing. It made me realize that sometimes, we...

Believing God over Our Desires: A Deeper Look at Faith and Scripture Hey everyone, fellow Bible lovers! Conrad here from Conrad Rocks. Today, I want to delve into a topic that's been stirring in my heart: faith and how it intersects with our desires.  There's a whole movement out there about "believing to receive," and listen, there's truth to that. But brothers and sisters, we gotta be careful not to take it out of context!  False Prophets and the Importance of Relationship (Jeremiah 14:14-16) The Bible warns us about false prophets who speak lies in God's name (Jeremiah 14:14-16). These folks haven't been sent by Him, and their pronouncements are based on their own hearts, not God's will.  This is why cultivating a relationship with God is crucial. We can't just claim things and expect them to happen. True faith comes from knowing and trusting the Father (John 10:27).  Following Jesus' Example: Dependence on the Father (John 5:19) Jesus is ou...

  Is Television Taking Over Our Minds? Today I want to talk about something I get asked a lot: why I don't watch television. I originally unplugged from TV back in the 90s, and let me be honest, I'm not perfect. I still enjoy Netflix and the occasional movie. But something struck me when I was reading Romans 12:2: "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God" (KJV).  I realized I could sing along to jingles and recite commercials better than scripture! It freaked me out.  I was being programmed by the world.  After some research, I learned about a study that showed television puts your mind into a state similar to hypnosis, making it receptive to suggestion.  Basically, the constant stream of images bypasses critical thinking, and you end up believing what you see.  Think about it - how often can you tell which news channel someone watch...

So you believe Jesus is a myth? Then Maybe you believe that the apostles were tortured and martyred for a lie? Then Maybe you believe the Messianic prophecies are some astronomical coincidence? Then Maybe you believe Smith Wigglesworth , Maria Woodworth Etter, John G. Lake ,  and Gary Wood are all hoaxers? Then Maybe you believe the pulpit splitting in two at Christian Tabernacle in October of 1996 was some mass hallucination tricking people into repentance? One thing I have learned is that spiritual things are s piritually discerne d .  The carnal mind cannot fathom the things of God.  It can't understand the things of God for God is a Spirit.  This is why we see all these intellectual gymnastics by unbelievers.  Without the spirit of Christ people do back flips to invent carnal solutions to what Christians find so obvious. 1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of...
