Miracle Manifested\n

Out of all the miracles God has done throughout the centuries, there is one miracle all miracles hinge on. When you get the message in the miracle, it changes how you see things and even who you are. This miracle has to be true or all of Christianity is a farce. This miracle is the deciding factor and the singular litmus test in proving if the deity and the Gospel of Jesus Christ is fact or fantasy, truth or fable.\n

One miracle separates Jesus from every man ever born. It is despised by the critics and reviled in demonic realms. It is the miracle we celebrate every Easter \u2013 the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.\n

Paul testified to the importance of the resurrection when he wrote:\u00a0\u201cIf Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost. If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 1 Corinthians 15:16\n

But then Paul triumphantly declared, \u201cBut Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.\u201d\n

Jesus Christ slapped death in the face and that makes His credentials as God irrefutable. No wonder people don\u2019t want to believe in the resurrection. If Jesus is God, then they have to obey Him! Most of us simply don\u2019t want to.\n

We are our own God. We do as we wish without thinking twice about the one who not only created us, but saved us. Is that you? Are you living for yourself and ignoring Christ? Have you said a prayer but never let it get into your heart that you owe your life \u2013 especially the way you live it \u2013 to Jesus? You can change that!","hover":"\nWhich Wolf Do You Feed?\n

Jesus-driven thinking helps and heals. This is what the Bible has to say on the subject: For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. \u2013 Romans 8:6\n

The Cherokee nation knew it, too. Check out this spot-on tribal tale:\n

An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life. He told the boy, \u201cA terrible fight is going on inside me. It is a fight between two wolves. One wolf is evil. He is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and self-doubt.\"\n

The old man continued: \u201cThe other wolf is good. He is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.\u201d He then told the boy, \u201cThis same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person, too.\u201d\n

The grandson thought about it for a minute, then asked his grandfather, \u201cWhich wolf will win?\u201d The wise old chief replied, \u201cThe one you feed.\u201d\n

What wolf have you been feeding? Just know the wolf of evil thoughts will eventually devour you, and likely others as well. Thoughts become actions, and there is always collateral damage.\n

That\u2019s not you! You can control your thought life and ensure the evil wolf starves to death."}},"slug":"et_pb_blurb"}">Miracle Manifested

Grounded in FaithDeclare!

I have decided not to walk away from obedience when I feel weak. That’s where God’s strength helps me prevail! I call on Jesus to strengthen me when I’m tempted, and He always gives me grace to get through!  He did a huge miracle so that I could be saved and set free; how could I not live for Him?!
