Welcome to Dawn's Christian Blog!: December 2020

WELCOME!

Welcome to my blog! I hope to be a resource to help you in your walk with God. Now more than ever we need to get back to the basic fundamentals of moral living and take a stand for what is right and truthful with God as our ultimate authority. His Word is reliable and preserved and can be trusted, so that is the basis for my advice and teaching. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or topics you would like me to cover. I look forward to sharing what God has placed on my heart. See my website at https://www.lovinggodministry.com/ for books and music I have written that will enrich your life!

Ezekiel 22:30: "And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none." Let's stand in the gap together!

How to Fight Evil Fortresses

Telling the Truth in a Post-Truth World part B

This message by Dr. John MacArthur is so good that I want to share this on my blog. There is a part A on You Tube as well. This message makes so much sense. Unfortunately we are already under the judgment of God, and Dr. MacArthur outlines how we know that. This is spiritual warfare, and we cannot fight with human weapons. How do we fight against evil fortresses? With truth. We need to know truth, and we need to be courageous and bold enough to proclaim it to this world.

Why are we dealing with lies? Because we are dealing with the Great Liar - Satan himself. John 8:44 says Satan is the father of lies, and a murderer from the beginning. He is the ring leader you and I are ultimately dealing with as our enemy of the truth. John 8:32: "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." If the truth will make you free, what does a lie do? Yes, lies put you in bondage.

Are you a warrior God can count on? Are you a warrior your nation can count on, whether you are from America or some place else? Are we going to go down cowardly or fight the way God says to fight? Are you on your knees praying actively? Let's get it together. It's like we are standing at the gates of hell and warning people to not go in. Are there any blocking the entrance or are we sleeping, or moving out of the way so they can go to their spiritual deaths?

A book by Rebecca Brown, MD called Prepare for War is an excellent resource on how to prepare yourself for spiritual battle. This is real. This is now. Check out Prepare for War on amazon.com

One last thought: my prayer is that people would be free so they can do what? Come to salvation so they can have the opportunity to love the Lord. We love Him because He first loved us it says in 1 John 4:19. He is worthy of our worship and our adoration. He is so wonderful; to know Him is to love Him. Those who are in bondage will never know the great love of our Lord Jesus Christ, and they will have eternal punishment in darkness as their future rather than eternal security and love. That chance is worth fighting for.

God's Simple Plan of Salvation

Are You Sure about Heaven?

Think carefully on this soul-searching question. If you were to die right now, do you know for sure you would go to heaven? If your answer is anything other than, “Yes, I am absolutely certain that my sins are forgiven and that heaven will be my home,” then here is an important message just for you. The Bible teaches that you need to know and believe these things to settle this.

First, you have sinned against God.

“For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).

“As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one” (Romans 3:10).

Then God tells us where sin leads.

“Wherefore, as by one man [Adam] sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned” (Romans 5:12).

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 6:23).

The wonderful news of the Bible is that Jesus loves you and died in your place to pay the penalty for your sin.

“But God commendeth [demonstrated] His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

Now, here is what God wants you to do.

“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” (Romans 10:9).

“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).

God wants you to believe His Word and accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior.

"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to usward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9).

If you will, then right now pray a simple prayer, asking the Lord to save you. (Remember, the exact words of this prayer do not save you, but it is what you believe in your heart as you pray a prayer of repentance to be saved that will save you.)

Dear Lord, I know that I am a sinner. I believe that you came to earth and died on the cross for my sins and that you rose again from the dead and now you live in heaven! I’m sorry for sinning against you. Please forgive me for my sins and come into my heart and save me right now. Thank you for saving me and giving me eternal life. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Congratulations! If you prayed that prayer in faith, believing it with all your heart, then you are saved! You will go to heaven when you die, and starting now, God will help you throughout your entire life. Eternal life starts now! He can be your best friend.
