PRAYER - "Thank God For Your Ministers" In behalf of the saints at Corinth, Paul thanked God for the coming of Titus and another brother. Thank God for your ministers. You would not be a believer if you had not heard; if the minister had not come to preach.  2 Corinthians 8:16-17 - "Thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you. For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own accord he went unto you. And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches." PRINCIPAL - "The Apostle - God's Delegate To All Men" The word "Apostle" comes from a Greek word meaning "delegate, ambassador, one commissioned." Paul said, "Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord? ...the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord."  1 Corinthians 9:19 - "I made myself servant unto all, ...unto the Jews I became as a Jew, ...to them that are under the law, as under the law, ...To them that are without law, as without law, ...To the weak became I as weak, ...I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some." PRINCIPLE - "Keep Yourself From Idols Or Things Pertaining To Idols" Anyone who believes the Gospel should know that man-made idols are not gods. We ignore idols and their non-existent gods. "Though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) But to us there is but one God, the Father." "Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge." 1 Corinthians 8:10 - "If any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols?" PROPHECY - "With Temptation, God Will Also Make A Way Of Escape" The temptations of sin have never changed or diminished. The same sins that destroyed the ancients are destroying multitudes today. "Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." But there is no reason for any believer to be destroyed by temptation.  1 Corinthians 10:13 - "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”  Get together with Spirit-filled friends who can speak life and truth to you.

Can two walk together, except they be agreed? - Amos 3:3

When it comes to faith, a lot of believers feel like they have one foot nailed to the ground. No matter how hard they try, they just can't seem to make any progress. If you'll watch them, you can see why. They literally haven't "gotten themselves together." One minute they'll be telling you, "Oh yes, amen, I believe the Word," and the next minute they'll be spouting unbelief like it's going out of style. "I know God says He'll prosper us, but I'll tell you what, my business is doing so badly, it's about to give me ulcers. I can't sleep at night for worrying." Dig a little deeper and you may find out that they've pulled their actions out of line with the Word as well. "Well, you understand, brother, I can't possibly tithe with my income like it is. I'd go under!" Faith just won't work for a person like that. You see, you're a triune being. You are a spirit. You have a soul, which consists of your mind, will and emotions. And you live in a body. Each of those areas has a specific role to play in your faith walk. You have to get all three in agreement before you can go anywhere at all! Start by feeding your spirit on the Word of God. Just like the body produces physical strength when you nourish it with food, the spirit produces spiritual strength when you nourish it with the Word. That spiritual strength is called faith. Develop that faith, and instead of your spirit being dominated by the other two areas, it will be the one in charge. Next, bring your soul in line. Set your mind on "things above." Meditate on the Word until your thoughts begin to agree with it. Keep your attention on it until even your emotions yield. Finally, bring your body in line. Once you truly get your spirit and soul established on the Word, that won't be hard. The body is a follower, not a leader. It will do whatever you train it to do. Begin teaching your body to act on the truth you've planted in your mind and spirit, and it will follow right along. Don't try to walk in faith with your foot nailed to the ground. Get yourself together! Bring your spirit, soul and body in harmony—and the Word will take you as far as you want to go.

Put the Word to work in your spirit, soul and body--and allow God's Word to work in you like medicine.

I can use the authority in the Name of Jesus to overcome sin, sickness, demons, fear, lack and death. (Philippians 2:9-11)
