 Three Doors the Devil Uses to Enter Your Home The devil is a cunning adversary who seeks to infiltrate our lives and lead us astray. Here are three ways he can gain access: 1. The Door of Our Thoughts When we allow our minds to dwell on negative thoughts like doubt, fear, or anger, we open the door to his influence. These negative thoughts can tempt us to sin and make us question God’s love and goodness. 2. The Door of Our Words Speaking negatively about others or using our words to hurt or offend gives the devil a foothold in our lives. He can use our words to create conflict, division, and sow seeds of discord and mistrust. 3. The Door of Our Actions Our actions can also invite the devil into our homes. Choosing to sin opens the door to his influence, allowing him to control us and keep us separated from God. Once the devil gains access, he can wreak havoc in our lives, causing us to doubt our faith, make poor decisions, and hurt ourselves and others. We must be vigilant and awa...

  Many people know the saying, “Nothing is certain except death and taxes.” However, the Bible mentions a few individuals who never experienced death. While some might think of Jesus, Christianity teaches that Jesus did die before his resurrection. The Bible actually names three people who never died, and the third person remains a mystery. In the Bible, Enoch was the first man said to have never died. He was a descendant of Adam and Eve’s third son and Noah’s great-grandfather. Unlike most people of his time, Enoch walked faithfully with God. He became a father at 65 and lived to be 365 years old. Genesis 5:22 and 24 tells us that “Enoch walked with God, and he was no more, for God took him,” meaning God brought him to heaven without experiencing death. Enoch is also mentioned in Luke 3:37 as an ancestor of Jesus and in Hebrews 11:5-6 for his great faith. The phrase “God took him” is often used when referring to Enoch. The Book of Hebrews clarifies that this phrase isn’t merely sy...

  Are you relying on your own wisdom, or are you seeking the guidance of the One who holds all truth? Discover how true health and strength come from humility before God and turning away from evil. Proverbs 3:7-8 gives us valuable advice that encourages us to stay humble and respect God. It warns us about the danger of being prideful and thinking we know it all. Instead of relying only on our own understanding, we're encouraged to have a healthy respect for the Lord, recognizing His authority and aligning our lives with His guidance. By avoiding evil and choosing to do what's right, we open ourselves up to God’s blessings. The promise that comes with this advice is one of complete well-being. When we humble ourselves, respect the Lord, and turn away from evil, we experience both physical and spiritual health. This kind of obedience not only brings peace to our minds but also strengthens our bodies, nourishing us deeply. It's a reminder that real wisdom comes from depending...

 In the Bible, there was a man of great righteousness named Job, who was recognized and praised by God as being blameless. God even spoke highly of him to Satan. However, Satan challenged God, claiming that Job’s loyalty was only due to the blessings he had received and that he wouldn’t remain faithful without them. This challenge set off a significant series of events, Now, in the Book of Job, chapters 1 and 2, it says: “In the land of Uz, there lived a man named Job. This man was blameless and upright; he feared God and shunned evil. He had seven sons and three daughters, and he owned 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 donkeys, and had a large number of servants. He was the greatest man among all the people of the East. His sons would hold feasts in their homes on their birthdays, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. When a period of feasting had run its course, Job would make arrangements for them to be purified early in the mor...
