Delivered Out of Darkness 6/24 Wed. Wisdom

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: Delivered Out of Darkness 6/24 Wednesday Wisdom But He makes it clear in His Redemption spoken of in Colossians 1:13, 14: "Who delivered us out of the authority of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love." Darkness is Satan's family relationship. His kingdom is darkness. Darkness is hatred, jealousy, bitterness -- everything that Satan can impart to man. We have been delivered out of that and have been delivered out of the authority of it, so that it no longer dominates us or rules us. "And He has translate us by the New Creation into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in Whom we have our Redemption, the remission of our sins." --E. W. Kenyon

Joy 6/23 Tuesday Truth

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: Joy 6/23 Tuesday Truth Joy is something that only believers have. The world may have happiness. They find that in their surroundings, their environment.

When We Stop Going Forward 6/22 Monday Meditation

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: When We Stop Going Forward 6/22 Monday Meditation Beloved, whenever we stop going forward, we go to milling around. When an individual stops going forward for God, he begins to go in a circle, just as a man when lost in a forest ceases to go straight forward but wanders in a circle. So it was with the early church. When they ceased to go forward, they started wandering in a circle and became lost in the Dark Ages. The Devil... removed the cross, offering them titles, positions, honor, salaries, profits of every kind -- and they fell for it. They no longer needed to look for God for their protection and support... And so it is with our great church bodies of today. History repeats itself in every movement through human weakness and failure. -- Frank Bartleman (historian of the Azusa Revival)

We Tie God's Hands 6/18 Thursday Thoughts

But God can only work when we are willing, yielded, and obedient. We tie God's hands. -- Frank Bartleman

Forgive and Forget 6/17 Wednesday Wisdom

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: Forgive and Forget 6/17 Wednesday Wisdom I look up to the Father and say, "Father, forgive me for doing that thing." And the moment I do, He forgives me. It is wiped out as though it had never been. That instant that I confess it and tell the Father of it, Jesus says, "Lay that to My account." Notice that the Father has no memory of our past mistakes and failures. You must forget them too. -- E. W. Kenyon.

Lift Up Jesus 6/16 Tuesday Truth

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: Lift Up Jesus 6/16 Tuesday Truth There never was such a responsibility on the people of God as there is today. There never was such a time for Jesus Christ to be lifted up as He is today. Gods of science and nature and other gods are on the earth today. At a gathering of 23 ministers in Boston, only three accepted the divinity of Christ. We have to drop all side issues and hobbies, everything else but Jesus; we must lift up Jesus. -- Maria Woodworth-Etter (1844-1924)
