ARE YOU LIVING IN THE PROMISED LAND?

ARE YOU LIVING IN THE PROMISED LAND?   I will take you back to The Old Testament where we can read about the Promised Land. We can go back to Abram, later to be called Abraham. He was originally living in Ur of the Chaldeans. They left that country and headed for the land of Canaan, but stopped in Haran and settled there. The father of Abram died in Haran. The Lord had spoken to Abram and this is what He said: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to ... (read more)

MEDITATE ON THE WORD OF GOD AND THEN YOU WILL DO WHAT THE WORD IS SAYING.

MEDITATE ON THE WORD OF GOD AND THEN YOU WILL DO WHAT THE WORD IS SAYING.   I recently heard some teaching by Curry Blake and I was inspired and felt that I had to repent in some areas. I want to take you with me in the process. Whatever we have received, we should share with others. I really have to say that I never have wanted to teach anything that is not based on the Word of God, but it hasn’t always been so active in my daily life as it should. I have just been attacked by some ... (read more)

HOW FAR HAVE YOU GOTTEN WITH THE PREPERATION FOR THE WEDDING?

HOW FAR HAVE YOU GOTTEN WITH THE PREPERATION FOR THE WEDDING?   Why do you ask? I am not going to get married or you might say that you have been happily married for many years and you have planned to stay married for the rest of your life. That is pleasing to God. Divorce should never be a light solution to a problem.   I really do not talk about a wedding between a man and a woman. I am talking about the wedding described in the Bible. The wedding we all are invited to. The ... (read more)

ARE YOU AND I WHERE WE SHOULD BE?

ARE YOU AND I WHERE WE SHOULD BE?   I have to be careful in order to avoid being judgmental and religious. I have just written that you can be free from shame and guilt and I really do not want to put that on you, but there might be things that you and I should confess and there might be things that we should change. I do understand that we live in a very special time. You might just enter internet and read what many of the prophets are writing. I do not swallow everything, but quite a lot ... (read more)

FREE FROM SHAME AND GUILT.

  FREE FROM SHAME AND GUILT.     Shame and guilt are something many people are suffering from. Many people are using defense mechanisms in order to hide their guilt and shame for other people or defending themselves for accusations, sometimes imagined accusations. The Bible says that the devil is the accuser and he is hidden behind a lot of guilt and shame. There are times when guilt and shame are connected with sin, but there is no reason to hold on to that as soon as sin is ... (read more)

ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN ONLY ON SUNDAYS?

ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN ONLY ON SUNDAYS?   This is a sermon about being transparent and real. In some countries like the United States it is quite common to go to church on Sundays. In other countries it might be dangerous to gather around the name of Jesus. They might be punished by being sent to prison or even being killed in the worst cases. I am not going to write primarily about these, but about those loving God with lifted hands, praising Him on Sundays, but living a very different life ... (read more)

THE DEVIL IS USING THE WORD OF GOD.

THE DEVIL IS USING THE WORD OF GOD.     This is a theme that I haven’t written about before, but I have a lot to say about it. We know that the devil knows the Word of God. I seriously believe that he knows it better than most of us, but he never uses it for a good purpose. On the contrary, he is an expert in twisting the Word in order to use it against us. He did that to Jesus as well, but not without a counter-answer. We might read Matthew 4:1-12, Mark 1:12-13 and Luke 4:1-13. I ... (read more)

PUNCTURE DEMONIC BALLOONS.

PUNCTURE DEMONIC BALLOONS!   I am not mad nor have I been too long in the summer-sun. I do use symbols when I want to get a point across and this is one of those times. I have mentioned this before, but I want to write more about it this time. It’s about a small problem that we get demonic help to make very big. Sometimes the problem doesn’t even exist except in our head. I will philosophy over some approaches. We human beings seem to have a big problem with one word: the word no. I ... (read more)

WHAT DO YOU HAVE, BUT DO NOT USE?

  WHAT DO YOU HAVE, BUT DO NOT USE?   I am quite curious to see what will be written on the following pages. I think I got this title and I was inspired from a conference where it was said that a certain country had lost its identity and its authority and lacked to see its riches. I believe that the same principle goes for an individual and especially for us who are believers in Christ.   I grew up in Scandinavia where we have something called “janteloven” That is an ...

ARE YOU HUNGRY OR THIRSTY? WHAT DO YOU WANT TO EAT AND DRINK?

ARE YOU HUNGRY OR THIRSTY? WHAT DO YOU WANT TO EAT AND DRINK?   This time I use words that are mostly used in connection with physical food and drinks. I am partly doing this in order to get your attention, but Jesus did also compare spiritual things with everyday life. That makes it easier for people to understand what you really want to say. If we are only using spiritual phrases, some people might feel confused. If we are without food for a long time, one really starts to get hungry and ... (read more)
