  How to Grow Through Your Tough Times and Never Give Up

  I used to think this was odd. I wondered, "How can we be blessed if we are mourning?" Then God helped me understand that our times of pain are actually perfect opportunities to receive and experience His supernatural comfort.

  Being Led by the Holy Spirit

  What does it mean to be led by the Holy Spirit? Some may refer to it as being filled with…or sensitive to…or anointed by the Spirit. It probably sounds really spiritual. But being led by the Spirit is actually a very practical part of living the Christian life. Simply put, to be led by the Holy Spirit just means to be obedient to Him.

  The Holy Spirit in You

  I love how the Holy Spirit works in our lives. He is always ready and willing to help us grow and change. But He's a gentleman…He patiently and gently guides us into truth. And the fact is no matter how much we try to be or do what's good and right, we can never produce the lasting fruit we're hoping for in our lives without His help.

  Who Is the Holy Spirit?

  When we accepted Christ as our Savior, the Holy Spirit came to dwell on the inside of us. You could say that God gave us each a piece of Himself. That means a lot more than we can imagine, because He brought with Him all the power, the peace and the presence of God. He came to live in us and have constant fellowship with us.

  Are You Fulfilling Your Purpose in Life?

  God loves you and He has a plan for your life. You are a wonderful creation made by God and you have a unique purpose to fulfill in this world. Ephesians 2:10 (AMP) says that as Christians, "we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us

  Take Authority Over Your Enemy

  I went to church for years and never heard about the devil. It's not fun talking about him, and I don't ever want to put too much focus on him. But the truth is, we have an enemy. First Peter 5:8 says, "…That enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour." It's important for us to believe in the power and authority we have in Christ over our enemy so we can have the great life God wants us to have.

  You've Got the Power…Are You Using It?

  It was an amazing revelation when I discovered that not only is God powerful, but He wants to fill us with His power. God doesn't promise us a problem-free life, but He does promise to give us the strength and ability to do what He's calling us to do if we will love Him, put our trust in Him, and lean on Him.

  Happiness and Humility: A Most Unusual Pair

  Happiness and Humility are two words that don't seem to fit together. They essentially feel like opposites because it hurts to submit to authority and go through humbling situations and seasons of life. But humility really does bring us happiness! I'll tell you why.

  Faithfulness: It's What You Do Repeatedly That Makes a Statement

  Faithfulness is a character trait we all want other people to have. We want our spouse to be faithful to us in good times and bad. We want the guy who's repairing our roof to do a good job and get it finished on time. And we want our children to obey us not just to get gifts or special privileges, but because they trust us and believe we want the best for them.

  How to Gain Peace by Changing Your Attitude

  Peace is a gift God gives us, and it grows in us just like fruit grows on trees – with time and nurturing. As we work with the Holy Spirit to develop the fruit of peace in our life, He teaches us how to deal with our frustrations in a completely different way. One thing I learned is that it wasn't my circumstances that made me upset, it was how I responded to them.
