Even witch doctors are hearing the gospel and committing their lives to Christ. In some of these meetings he has a metal furnace to burn things, and he instructs those former witch doctors to burn their evil books and potions. This is a good example of Jesus coming to destroy the work of the devil.

Inspiration: Many high schools teach “safe sex” to their students, but the underlying message to the students is that it is time to start having sex, just do it safely. I was excited to hear about some students of some high schools promoting “No sex till marriage.” These Christians were a great light to their peers. They were popular students so the other students had respect for them and listened to them.

He said it was the constant reading of Proverbs that helped him keep his sexual life under control.

These were tests from the Lord that I needed to pass, as God was telling me to bless those who persecute me and pray for those who treat me poorly.

Inspiration: A Bible teacher taught on discernment one day. He explained that thoughts come from three sources: 1. God, 2. the devil and 3. Self (you can generate your own thoughts or hear what others say.) This scripture can be used to analyze your thought life and immediately discern the source of a thought when it enters your mind. Casting down thoughts that exalt themselves against God helps keep the mind clear and peaceful in God’s direction. Hebrews 4:12 says the reading of the Word of God is needed to discern between right and wrong. We need to know what is right and wrong from God’s perspective.

Inspiration: I have had many poor people ask me for money. Some want money for food and some want money to promote their bad habits. Each time I give to the poor, there is an opportunity to share Jesus with them. For many, it was wiser to give them food rather than money as many of the poor cannot be trusted with money. Preaching the gospel was the most important thing they needed and I was able to pray with most of them. Poor people must learn that God does not want them to be poor as Deuteronomy Chapter 28 says poverty is a curse.

I resolved to be like Joshua and Caleb and not to doubt God’s promises in His Word. It was my prayer time that gave me the insight to realize that God was watching over me, and I that I needed to trust Him to meet my daily needs .

Inspiration: The Holy Spirit used this scripture to really convict me of the need for more holiness in my life. It was at a time that I had added too many things to my daily schedule and got too busy for daily Bible study which over a period of time caused me to start falling in love with the world instead of God’s call for my life. I repented of my sin and knew from this mistake that I must always keep on, daily, studying the Bible to grow in faith or else my faith would dwindle. It also helped me see healing in a new light. If the Holy Spirit was dwelling in me and my body was the temple of God, then disease would not be welcome in God’s temple.

Inspiration: One Christian leader was dying of tuberculosis and although many were praying for him he got steadily worse. He had to stop his ministry and move in with his parents as he was getting weaker and weaker. As he was close to death, he said to himself “I am going to walk outside to a certain tree and praise God.” He was so weak he could hardy walk, but he kept praising God and God’s power started to heal him. It wasn’t long before he was totally healed, all from praising God.

Inspiration: A student struggled with sexual thoughts even after he had received Jesus into his heart. It got him depressed and he questioned if he was really a child of God since he had so many impure thoughts. He thought that when you were “saved” you got a new mind. What he did not realize was that when you get saved, only your spirit is renewed. You don’t get a new body nor a new mind at that time. This scripture helped him to understand that one’s mind had to be renewed to God’s ways which takes time. Studying the Bible and worshipping Jesus at home and at church helps one renew their mind to the mind of Christ.
