The Deciding Witness

Lifestylez Family Ministries - Around The Table

We have all been there many times, standing in the valley of decision.  Perched precariously between victory and defeat.  On the one side of us is the word of the world authored by satan that says, for example, “You are not going to get healed”.  On the other side of us, the Word of God […]

Avoid Big Failures

Lifestylez Family Ministries - Around The Table

There is a subtle strategy satan uses to take control of our lives.  The Bible calls it lasciviousness, and it means “to have no restraint”. Lasciviousness has been preached as being extreme immorality, but it does not start out that way.  It begins with just a few seemingly innocent thoughts.  Then those thoughts grow and […]

Run to God

Lifestylez Family Ministries - Around The Table

It is wonderful to know we have been set free from the law of sin and death.  It is glorious to know we never again have to submit to the slavery of sin.  However, what do we do when, in spite of those wonderful, glorious truths, we still miss the mark?  What do we do […]

Bless the Lord

Dare to Decide

Lifestylez Family Ministries - Around The Table

Do not worry about making decisions for God.  Do not be afraid to step out in faith and declare that we are going to do something new that He has shown us to do.  The thought might arise, ‘What if we fail’?  Be careful, we can be so scared of failing, that we can muddle […]

Spiritual Armour for Spiritual War

Lifestylez Family Ministries - Around The Table

“For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere”.  Ephesians 6:12 AMPC Unfortunately, most of us do not know […]

Let Your New Man Out

Lifestylez Family Ministries - Around The Table

When you made Jesus Christ Lord of your life, you became what the Bible calls a new creature.  Inside, you are not the same person you were before.  You have the nature of God born into you.  But it is not enough for you just to have that new nature on the inside.  You have […]
