What’s On Your Mind (Part II)
Clarksville, TN – Satan didn’t try to force Eve into disobeying God. He simply maneuvered her into thinking about it. He suggested the benefits she should consider. Eve thought about them and then looked at the forbidden fruit with new interest. It looked good, but it always looked good. The fruit hadn’t changed. Only Eve’s thoughts had changed. Satan strategy worked then and it is still working now.
Evil forces have skillfully gotten us to believe we aren’t responsible for our thoughts. Educators and teachers have indirectly taught that man is responsible only for what he does with thoughts that come to him. «Read the rest of this article»

What’s On Your Mind
Clarksville, TN – Your mind is like a computer. Every thought that flows through it, and every image that you create, is inscribed on the cells of your brain. Recall some of your thoughts and created images. Then imagine them on a motion picture screen. Would you be willing, and pleased, for that film to be shown to every Sunday school class in our land? No? Why not?
God has called us to holiness in all our thoughts. This must be our goal even when we feel too human to begin. This may seem like an impossible task, but anything less falls short of what he has asked and few Christians seem to know what it is that God has told us in his written word about holy thoughts. «Read the rest of this article»

Giving Up Sin
“… Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.” (Hebrews 12 NKJV) Most Christians have put away those obvious, outward sins that are easily seen; theft, murder, and adultery.
What we haven’t given up is usually hidden in our minds and hearts. It might be our attitude toward those who steal, kill, and commit adultery. Jesus wants to show us that the rest of our problem is in the invisible hidden thoughts of our hearts.
He says, “For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witnesses, blasphemies.” (Matthew 15:19 NKJV) «Read the rest of this article»

3-Way Forgiveness
Clarksville, TN – Jesus said, “Your heavenly Father will forgive you if you forgive those who sin against you; but if you refuse to forgive them, He won’t forgive you.” (Matthew 6:14, 15)
God forgives us immediately when we confess our sins to Him. That is His nature. But if we don’t go on to forgive others, we will suffer. Unforgiveness will rob us of peace, joy, and health. God gives us the choice to forgive and be forgiven or condemn and be condemned.
Often the root of our present family problems can be found in painful experiences of our childhood. Perhaps a difficult experience with a parent, a sister, or brother still haunts us. «Read the rest of this article»

Forgiveness
Clarksville, TN – True praise is a natural response from a heart that has been forgiven. Forgiveness is a necessary foundation for praise. It holds the key to our entire relationship with God.
No one knows our nature better than God who made us. He knows we are disobedient and that our disobedience separates us from Him. He longs for a restoration of our broken relationship, and since He knows He can’t depend on us to do anything right, He decided a long time ago to depend on Himself instead. Our disobedience deserves death, so God let His own Son die for us. Thus our debt is paid and God’s system of forgiveness has been set up.

What Is Praise
Clarksville, TN – Praising God is one of the most important things we can learn while on this earth because to praise Him, as He intends for us to praise, involves every aspect of our life.
Praise is meant to be the focal point of our relationship with God. Praise isn’t just a surface thing. It isn’t just saying “Praise the Lord” all day long. The secret of praise is something that flows from the center of what is really us. It is something that brings an immediate response from the heart of God. «Read the rest of this article»
