Keep The Faith

The Spirit as Living Water There are times when the Spirit gives us a picture that helps everything else come into focus. Recently, the image that keeps returning to me is water — not still or stagnant, but living, moving, flowing. That sense led me back into Scripture, searching for how God reveals Himself through this image and what it means for how we walk with Him. I’ve been trying to picture the Holy Spirit in a way that feels real and grounded — something I can hold in my mind when I pray, when I read, when I walk through my day. The image that keeps coming back to me is living water — flowing, cleansing, refreshing, restoring. So I went searching through Scripture to see how often the Spirit is connected to water, and what that might mean for how we walk with God. Broken Cisterns and the Fountain of Living Water Jeremiah 2:13 struck me immediately: “My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed out c...

The Hidden Truth — Our Real Battle Intro: There are moments in our walk with God when He pulls back the curtain just a little more, letting us see what has always been true but rarely understood. This reflection comes from one of those moments — a deeper look into the unseen battle Scripture tells us we are already part of, whether we recognize it or not. I recently wrote a post on Ephesians 6:10–20 about how our fight is not against other people, but against Satan and the demons. Since then, I’ve had a lot of questions, and I’ve begun studying this more deeply. What I’m seeing already is enough to understand why we rarely hear sermons on this subject. It’s not because Scripture is silent. It’s because Satan does not want us to know the truth . If humanity understood what is really happening — and if we received the help God freely offers — Satan’s influence would collapse. Two Kingdoms, Two Ways of Working There is a vast difference between how Satan operates and ...

Demons, also called evil or unclean spirits do exist. They can occupy and take control of us humans if we don't have Jesus and the Living Water (Holy Spirit) in us. When Jesus was here on earth, He cast out evil spirits many times. There is a test to see if someone has an evil spirit within them. They can not say out loud these three words, "Jesus is Lord" . I want to pray right now. If anyone who is reading this right now tries to say these words and can not, I pray in the name of Jesus that the evil spirit or spirits will be cast out and that it will be made very clear that the only way to keep these spirits from returning is by letting Jesus come in and to ask for the Living Water (the Holy Spirit, our Helper). To the bond-servants of the Lord, this is our battle. The more humans who receive Christ and the Holy Spirit, the less places these evil spirits have a home to occupy. I don't know what happens to these spirits if there is no longer any of us humans l...
