@Rymiller843 there is an article in the 2015 bâsar magazine on sleep. ireade.page.tl (adults)
Could talk after if interested. But just glancing at your posts I wondered if care for what is happening around you is crowding out the Lord? And this unresolved dilemma is disrupting your sleep.
@styves not a religious spirit but a relational one.
Thank you
@Jhayward being sober so that you can pray -yes
See, Stand-biblical principles of balance for the soul on Amazon
@Pinky1776 Amen
Acts 17:26; Revelation 11:15-18
@Hinerodney supreme over the nations
@DevotionalTreasures why steadfastness? Well in preparation for becoming an #heir. An heir has to be relational, steady, sound, balanced, fair etc. when dealing with people and their challenges. Look at social media -the unsteady react to everything, The steadfast keep their hands on the oars navigating choppy waters because the goal of reaching the other side remains.
Faith, trials, steadfastness, functional heir (it is simply God's approved process for bring sons to glory). Steadfastness is not the goal but a necessity on the road to somewhere.
@pamela we are to be the church -this is not the same as going to church. God is relational. He acts and functions from the strength of #GoodRelationships. Unfortunately an emphasis on being spiritual (from human perspective not God's) robs us of the ability to be relational. Until we grasp that God's spirituality comes from being relational we will emphasize what we think is spirituality to the detriment of all else. To answer your question -both (Mark 12:29-34). Love God, love your neighbour, love yourself.
@Knittinggrace might we encourage more bible study and bible living by making our teaching and study sessions more interesting and deeply thought provoking with teachers who bring a Word from the throne room? If the Word grips our imagination might the world lose our interest?
@Fisherman listening to him tell of his pain is healing for him.
Talking to him about suicide will not make him suicidal.
Often times anger is the root of depression.
The bottom line is that those closest to him can reach out and be used by God to alter the course of his life. Prayer opens a door for the King to enter. Healing begins when a concerned believer who feels out of his or her depth, reaches out to weep with those who weep.
@tanjaostman he never fully relinquished #idolatry. The sexual bondage is strong in Hinduism. Without deliverance many ministers will do more harm than good. Without good boundaries we will not form #GoodRelationships and without accountability the flesh falls into many traps. Many idolize ministers who are sparkling setting them up for pitfalls.
@eyasu2020 thanks for mentioning
@KarlGessler If we battle flesh and blood do we allow the spirits to escape? The humans are both perpetrators and victims of sin, satan etc. Psalm 8:2 tells us why children are a threat to satan. When we intercede for children and support godly, sound children outreach we are part of God's solution. Understand that #sexual sin or #sex outside marriage is an easy way for satan to bring minors into demonic bondage or control.
Without an understanding of the big picture and how to intercept Satan's plan we will simply offer an emotional response. 1 Peter 4:7-10 we observe that soberness or self control or bàlance precedes prayer. Why? Because our prayer cannot simply be an emotional reaction but rather an intentional, precise response, aligned to God's will and timing so that we can intervene for Christ on behalf of Amerindian peoples and Hispanic migrants and their families.
In this series I explore #ethical issues in a biblical context.
In examining the world of work, what are my responsibilities as an ambassador of Christ?

In this series I explore #ethical issues in a biblical context.
Since we are being bombarded on every side at a fast pace, it is good to keep a whole scripture approach in view.

@His_story Is everything ok? Was this a general or personal prayer?
These problems may have many contributing layers but cannot be resolved without addressing the underlying root sin of #idolatry. The spiritual realm takes precedence over all other areas.
God honours the prayer of the righteous (James 5:14-18). Until the root of #idolatry is dealt with, one problem might be prayed away but another two pop up like pop corn.
Only a #relationship with the Living Christ can free a person from idolatry.
The evil fruit of #idolatry are like ripe fruit if these problems are found in your life.
If not yet present they are like green fruit.
A traumatic experience is enough to move fruit from green stage to ripe stage. Traumatic events trigger the ripening of the fruit.
Understand these problems only occur if the root of #idolatry is present in a person's life.
Some persons struggle with idolatry because of:
Family of origin
Ancestral practices
Religious beliefs/practices
Culture
Choice
Inaccurate view of self
Ingratitude (Romans 1) etc.
Matthew 7:18-20 applies here.
The root sin of #idolatry is always present if you observe these fruit.
