The meaning of the seven churches and the Seven Stars

What verse is when jesus took the devil out of a child.

I'm starting a business called American Blackbird. I pray that God blesses me & my employees. Please stand with me for God to help me & to also help others in Jesus name, amen.

Hi Bianca, My suggestion as a former teacher would be to obtain copy of a Christian catechism that outlines the basic beliefs of the faith with Scripture references and teach him from these points. This way, he will be given a firm foundation for the faith he professes. 12 years old is a common age for those in denominations that do so to learn this in a Confirmation class which is intended to teach this foundation to "confirm" as true the faith they profess. If you cannot obtain a catechism, then look for a basic Christianity book such as John Stott has written and use this to guide you in presenting Scripture to your son. For young teens like him, I think it is better to teach this way than to work through books of the Bible. Most teens will become disinterested with such an approach because it does not present an overall view of the faith that is immediate within them.

That is why I suggest as I have. After teaching the foundations of faith from the Bible, then I would suggest reading and studying the gospels so he can learn more deeply who Jesus was when He lived His earthly life and what he was like and taught.

Dear Jamil,

I will pray for you today.

Dear Lord Jesus,

We lift up Jamil today and ask that You will heal his body and cause the herpes to be removed completely. We ask this today, Jesus, in Your name. Amen.

LaTonya,

That sounds like a good report! Praise the Lord!

There are degrees of punishment:

" For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains." Deuteronomy 32:22

" And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more." Luke 12:47-48

" But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you." Matthew 11:22

" And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works." Revelation 20:13

I'm requesting prayer for my daughter Hannah that's currently in a homosexual relationship. I pray that God will stop Satan and turn her heart back to Him and the teachings that she was raised up on, in Jesus Christ's Holy Name, amen.

Please pray my husband comes home to live with me to save our marriage. Please remove all negativity and anger. please remove all evil people distractions and influences from his life. He has lived away from home 4 months now after 10 years of marriage after I found him online talking sexual and trying to meet with other women.

Please pray for a breakthrough renewal of our marriage. I love him and want him to come home to fix our marriage. We talk everyday and visit each other several times a week but he won't move home . He says he still loves me and wants me to be his wife .

Please show him my love and good intentions for him and allow him to remember his love for me and our marriage commitment.

Amen

Hi Abisola,

There are a lot of estimations on what 'Selah' means, but the one that seems to have been the majority opinion is that it is a musical term indicating a pause, or rest. Thus, when psalmists wrote 'Selah' after a sentence - it is taken that they wanted their hearers or readers to pause and truly consider what was just said.

I hope this helps!

Blessings!

Prayer Warriors thank you as always and may God bless you.

Dear Amy,

I will pray for you. Dear Lord Jesus, bring healing to Amy's toothache. Restore health to her tooth that is causing this pain. Cause the dentist to bring an accurate diagnosis so that the best treatment can be followed. We ask these things in Your name Jesus. Amen.

What is the meaning of "SELAH."

Very true, Kay

Giannis,

Well said. He is our Father and also, in Jesus, our Lord, Savior, and also in the Holy Spirit, our Helper, Sanctifier, Comforter. If we are to know the names of our God from the Scriptures than we can address Him by these names according to our circumstances. In Exodus God told Moses that His name was I AM WHO I AM (YHWH) and that Abraham called Him Almighty God (El Shaddai). In both the Old Testament and New, He was called "God Most High". (Far above all other creatures) speaking of God's transcendent nature. I suggest that it is good to study these names to understand more about our God and to call to Him inprayer by these names.

Please consider reflecting on 1 Chronicles 4:10.

In verse 5 is there a description of the 7 spirits of God & what each signifies?

Dear Mary,

1 Thessalonians 5:22 says "Abstain from every kind of evil."

1 Corinthians 15:33 says "Bad company corrupts good character."

David should have refused to look upon Bathsheba bathing on the rooftop, since this lusting led to a series of serious sin.

The above Scriptures, if heeded, would keep many from falling into sin.

Hi, i would like to know which part of the bible is best to teach a 12yr old child with low attention span whom knows the basics of the beginning of the bible and hoping you can guide us through this learning experience. Thank you for your time!

Sincerely yours, Bianca S.

Yes, Mary. It is believed that Jesus said these things to John and to His mother to indicate that they are to have a "mother/son" relationship where John ensures the care and support for Mary. Jesus entrusted to the other sons born to Mary who were not believers at that time. It seems that Mary followed Jesus as she was in the Upper Room congregation at Pentacost.

Mishael,

Good to hear that you and those in this senior abode were spared! Many areas have had quite a bit of destruction from the tornadoes and these are moving to other areas today. So sorry to hear this is happening. I pray that God will spare lives during this weather system.

Is it OK for a married man to lay down with unmarried woman

Hi Carlton!

You also stay encouraged in Jesus! I can sense your love for Him in your posts! Thank you for responding!

Blessings!

Hi Free...

AMEN! The BEST is yet to COME, for the One Who IS Best is coming! Maranatha!

Blessings!

Hi Marilyn,

I praise the Lord, Who saw fit to use my heart and keyboard :) to encourage you! I think sometimes, since 'eye has not seen, nor ear hear, nor has it entered into the heart of man what God has prepared for us' -we cling to what is past. If only the Lord will graciously give us eye salve to clear up our vision of the true glory ahead - we would never bother to look back! PRAISE THE LORD!!

Many blessings, sweet sister!

Does your dog when it dies go to heaven

Where in the Bible does it say that a married man is allowed to have relations with another woman that's not married

Good morning David,

I've seen you post two prayer requests and we're going to lift you up in prayer. Both you, Kristie and your coworkers.

Lord God, for any heaviness in heart for that David may encounter -- you are there and you've set His feet (and Kristie's) to walk on the Solid Rock which is Christ Jesus. We lift them up in prayer and to those who they encounter in their daily walk even in work. Most of us who live born again in You (Lord) work by the sweat of the brow in this world. Many of those we share labor with, know You not. Let us be that Light to them whether it be to share with them short passage of your Salvation ( Romans 10:8-13) that with Love they may know your Truth of Salvation and be born again. We lift up these prayers and magnify your Holy & Mighty name Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!

John 16:22 - And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

I'm much older now but during my teenage years and 20's I suffered from clinical depression. I tried every known medicine, psychology and method for cure. The only cure for depression is taking all those burdens and giving them to Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior. We lift up prayers for your daughter that she may not feel defeated or alone as God has mercy to heal depression. He is our victory. May God bless you and your household, Irma.

Isaiah 41:10 - Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Hi Joe , I think you are on the right path , treat everyone with the same respect , rich , poor , whatever colour or creed they are . Be kind to all in the same measure and you can't go wrong .
