BACKSLIDING: The Principal Causes of Backsliding Part 2

There are some principle causes of why people stop following God. They include shallowness, emptiness, lust, bitterness or unforgiveness, and sinfulness.

 

You will hear the teaching on the Prodigal Son from Luke 15. He had everything and he walked away from the Lord. Contrast that with Job who had everything and still followed the Lord and never turned his back from the Lord

 

Think of all the sins that the Lord rescued from and repent. Like the Prodigal Son, God will deliver you and make you whole.

 

The Lord is bringing you close in spite of the Shallowness, Emptiness, Lust, Bitterness, and Sinfulness. The Lord is filling you up today with fresh oil. Listen and get wisdom today!

BACKSLIDING: The Principal Causes of Backsliding Part 1

When you feel that you’ve been far from the Lord, it’s not too late to come back. In this special International Sunday message you will hear a message about having staying power.

 

Luke 15:20 reads, “So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him.”  Once you make the decision in your heart to return to the Father, God immediately begins the process of embracing you.

 

When you confess your sins to the Lord, no matter how great that sin may be, the Lord will forgive you and take you in such that you’ll never backslide or left behind when the Rapture comes. Luke 15 v 21

 

Invest in the word of God. Don’t give up and stay put! May God help you not to backslide or be like the seed that fell on shallow ground. Draw closer to God and be saved. Enjoy today’s message.

BIBLICAL DESCRIPTION of BACKSLIDING

In this Sunday’s message we were learn about the Biblical description of Backsliding. Backsliding happens when those committed to God (a born-again Christian) falls into the trap of the devil and allows the things of this world to separate them from God.

 

Every Christian is prone to backsliding, your relationship with God is always threatened by the devil. Just like a marriage needs time, communication, intimacy and closeness so must the relationship of God with his people. Nothing good comes from separation from God. Adam and Eve were separated from God because they listened to the devil more instead of the voice of God- “faith comes by hearing” Romans 10:17.

 

Backsliding is subtle process, so let us recognize symptoms of the disease. Assess yourself! We need more praying, more counsel, more of the word of God, and more love for God to escape the trap. Listen in and be fed with knowledge and gain understanding from the teachings of God!

THE LATTER SIGNS of BEING BORN AGAIN: Part 3

In this Sunday’s message you will see why if you are not Born Again, you cannot see the things of God, therefore you cannot connect with God as your King. You will hear the 12 signs that show that you’re Born Again.

 

There is a kingdom of Heaven that need to be desired over the kingdom of this world. You are God’s masterpiece! You should use your gifts to the Glory of God gladly and not recklessly. Revelation 14: 13 says,” Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.”

 

Your gift is a reflection of your anointing in the Kingdom of God. Do not hide your gift. The more you use your gift in the Kingdom of God, the more anointed you become, and more gifts are added to you.

 

Listen in and be blessed!

THE LATTER SIGNS of BEING BORN AGAIN: Part 2

Do you have a real relationship with God? In today’s message you will continue to hear about what it means to be Born Again. Christianity is not a relationship of condemnation, but of salvation!

 

Genesis 2:7 tells us how the Lord “breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living person. “The difference between a living and a dead body is by the breath of life that was breathed in you God. The only way to interact with God spiritually is to die to yourself and be Born Again.

 

You must develop the thing that is not seen with your relationship with God, the Holy Spirit. Your life will become proof that God’s will is perfect in your life. You will live a life that is set apart. Your life will show others that the New birth changes you for the better. Your life is proof that the Lord’s Word is good. Enjoy today’s powerful message!

THE LATTER SIGNS of BEING BORN AGAIN: Part 1

The Word of God says in proverbs 4:23 says, “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.”

 

When you are Born Again, the Lord changes your internal spirit and heart such that you manifest Godliness on the outside. When you are born again, Gods very own spirit will be in you. As Proverbs says, when God cleanses you, He will change you heart so that you can live new.

 

There are later signs of being Born Again for real. Listen to the teaching to continue to grow in the Lord. The Lord if transforming you through the renewing of your mind. See the ways which Gods spirit works in you as a Born Again Christian.
