My Top Ten favorite pictures from May Flower 2011

My Top Ten favorite pictures from May Flower 2011. I think it would be a little odd and bias because this would be my first list over three years of teaching in May Flower. But I guess this years batch was one of the best so I made a list. Besides this years batch was different from the others I think. I fell deeply in love with this students because they taught me a very different lesson in life. That not all people are that blessed so as a blessed person I should share my blessing to others. And my way sharing it is by teaching Catechism to those students who are willing to learn. Well here are my top ten pictures.

Good Candles

Read: Matthew 5:13-16

Max Lucado was certain that he wasn't dreaming when he told the story about good candles that he found in his closet. Together with his two kids and her pregnant wife Denalyn they spent a night without any lights on. It was almost midnight when the power broke. Her wife was pregnant and his two children were afraid of the dark. So he decided to go to the storage room alone. Seeing the old candles hidden in their old closet he started lighting the big one and bringing the small ones.

It was funny to imagine that he started talking to them in the dark. On his way he started talking to the candles. He was pretty amazed how the candles could give light in the darkness. He started telling them where they would be placed. After placing the big one on the dinner table a voice was heard from nowhere.

“Hold it right there!” he taught it was his wife Denalyn who was only playing with him.

When he looked around no one was there. Then he heard the voice again

“Wait, I’m still talking to you”.

He was shocked to see that the big candle that he placed on top of the dinning table was the one talking.

“Is this real, are you really talking to me?” Max was mesmerized.

 “Yes I am” replied the candle.

“So what’s the problem?”.

“I’m not ready to give light”

 “But you’re a candle your supposed to give light.” he replied.

Then he also heard the other candles in his hand saying the same thing. They’re not prepared. He then went back to the storage closet to get other candles. But they only say the same thing “We’re not prepared”.

Others told him that they haven’t medicated yet or have any experiences yet to be a good candle.

Max became confused and does not know what to do. Then a soft girl voice started talking.

“I can help you” a purple small candle said.

“I sing for the candles so they can have the courage to give light”.

“Well then if that’s what you do. Sing for us” he replied.

Her voice echoed in the storage closet when she started singing then the other candles started singing with her too. Max tried to stop them because he knew that his wife and children were waiting for him. But they wouldn’t so he just blow the candles out and leave. On his way out he accidentally bumped to his wife.

“Where are the candles?” she asked.

“They won’t work. Where did you buy those candles anyway?”

“Oh, they’re church candles. Remember the church that closed down across town? I bought them there”

Max was right. It wasn’t a dream. It is a fact that today many candles won’t work. Like most Christians today who does not do their part being the light of the world. Many are called but few are doing their part. Since the day when God called us through struggles and circumstances He wanted us to be the light to others. He wanted us to share our testimonies that we experienced from Him. Telling to others how it was to have Jesus Christ in our lives. You could also be a good candle to others by giving light for those who are still in darkness. How about you are you a good candle?

It's about pleasing God

I can still feel the chills inside me after that experience. It was my first and I hope not the last. 


Together with my churchmate Gretel we've performed a very weird task just a few hours ago. During the practice we were disturbed by the Altar servers and was asked us to be the Lectors for the mean time. Without a clue what to do. We answered yes! I felt my body was falling while walking at the aile holding the Holy Bible. So nervous I accidentally closed the book not noticing that I closed the part where I'm suppose to read. The Commentator who taught us just a few minutes ago before the Service looks so mad at us. But thank God we finished it. I did it. With a voice so calm I did it. I had finished my part. But not as perfect as Lectors do. When its Gretel's turn I looked at my friend Jomari who is an Altar Server smiling at me. I knew I did not do well so I just cover my face with my hands. 


After a few comments(whispering) of ourselves. Gretel and I noticed that our dance practice was over so we decided to leave. I thought that we acted disrespectful because we immediately leave the altar without finishing the service. But we hope not. We told Jomari that were going to leave now. Our friends already left and our things were still in the venue so we he let us.


But before I leave I asked Jomari "how was it?". He smiled and replied "It was fine, God called you and you answered back. Good job!". I knew I did not do well but still he smiled back and said it was a good job. Thank God! Even though were not good we know that some still appreciates it.


I smiled and said to myself. Maybe God is also pleased. That's more important! Our last or not. I don't care. It's not about the experience it's about pleasing God!

Battle Verses To Use Against Demonic Spirits

n our article, “Battle Verses of the Bible,” we list 100 of the very best battle verses in all of the Bible that would cover literally any kind of battle situation you could find yourself facing in this life. As we have said in that article, our God is a powerful Man of War and He will not hesitate to go into battle to help you out if you are walking right and in a good, full surrender with Him.


In this article, I want to give you the specific battle verses that you will need when dealing direct with any kind of demonic spirits – whether they be attacking you direct or anyone else you may know. These battle verses can be used in any kind of a deliverance you may find yourself involved in, whether it be trying to do a self-deliverance on your own against any demons who may be attacking you direct, or using them to drive off any demons who may be attacking someone else.


Again, I cannot stress enough how powerful these specific battle verses are. Each one of these battle verses will put the fear of God into these demons, and really help you being able to completely drive them out of what ever kind of situation you may be dealing with on your end – whether these demons be attacking someone from the outside of their bodies, or from the inside of their bodies. The Holy Spirit Himself will move very powerfully against these demons if you start quoting these kinds of battle verses against them once you start to directly engage with them.




These battle verses will give you maximum ammunition to use against any demons you may have to engage with in this life. Use these extremely, powerful battle verses in conjunction with the power of the Holy Spirit acting through you, and no demon from hell will be able to withstand this kind of an onslaught.


I will break these specific battle verses down under 5 separate captions so you can easily pick and choose which ones you will want to use, depending on exactly what you are dealing with on your own end. There are a total of 80 of these verses and they will cover any kind of situation you could find yourself facing with demonic spirits.
1. Satan and His Demons Have Already Been Defeated by Jesus at the Cross


The very first thing you will need to know is that Satan, his demons, and all of their supernatural powers have been totally defeated by Jesus when He died on the cross for all of us. Here are 6 extremely, powerful verses that you will need to have underneath your belt if you are ever forced to have to deal with any kind of a direct, demonic attack – either against yourself or anyone else you may know.


Demons hate, and I mean hate, every single one of these verses, as they are all a constant reminder to each and everyone of them that they are all defeated and that they have no chance against any true, born-again Christian who knows who they really are in Jesus Christ, who knows how to wield the Sword of the Holy Spirit, and who knows how to walk with the anointing that God can flow through them.


“… that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” (Hebrews 2:14)


“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.” (Colossians 1:13)


“Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.” (Colossians 2:15)


“For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” (1 John 3:8)


“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.” (Revelation 12:11)


“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a servant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.


Therefore God has also highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven and of those on earth, and those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:5-11)


Notice these 4 key phrases:
Jesus fully destroyed the devil and all of his works through His death on the cross
Jesus has fully delivered us from the power of darkness
Jesus has fully disarmed principalities and powers
That every knee shall bow to Jesus, including those who under the earth, which are demons


These extremely powerful statements being made to all of us by God through His Holy Word are all full and final.



Bottom line – Jesus has fully defeated the devil, all of his demons, and all of the supernatural works they are capable of doing against us.


As a result of Jesus’ death on the cross, we have now all received the Holy Spirit. As a result of having the Holy Spirit now living on the inside of us, we now have God’s supernatural power available to us to defeat any demons who may try and come against us in this life.


Demons are defeated and cast out by the Word of God and by the power of the Holy Spirit moving against them.


And this will now lead us right to the next section, which will show us that Jesus Christ Himself has now given us His full authority and full power to be able to cast demons out of people.
2. Jesus Has Given Us His Authority and Power to Cast Out Demons


When directly engaging with demons, the next set of battle verses you will need are the ones that will show you that Jesus Christ Himself has given us His direct authority and power to be able to directly engage with them and cast them out where and when needed.


Here are 38 extremely, powerful verses showing the supernatural power we now have as born-again Christians to be able to directly engage with any demons who may ever come our way in this life.


And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved, but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe.

“Blessed be the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle – my lovingkindness and my fortress, my high tower and my deliverer, my shield and the One in whom I take refuge, who subdues my people under me.” (Psalm 144:1)


“For You are my lamp, O Lord; the Lord shall enlighten my darkness. For by You I can run against a troop; by my God I can leap over a wall. As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.” (2 Samuel 22:29)


“It is God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of deer, and sets me on high places. He teaches my hands to make war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze … I have pursued my enemies and overtaken them; neither did I turn back again till they were destroyed. I have wounded them, so that they were not able to rise; they have fallen under my feet. For You have armed me with strength for the battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.” (Psalm 18:32,37)

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints …” (Ephesians 6:13-18)


When you read all of these verses, one right after the other, you get the message loud and clear that God really does want to anoint all of us for battle and not to be afraid of it once He starts to do it with each one of us. The very last verse says it all when it tells us that God wants to fully arm us for battle, and then goes as far as to tell us exactly what He wants to arm us with.




Bottom line – we have all been called to become good soldiers of Jesus Christ and to fight the good fight of faith on His behalf. There are captives out there that need to be set free, and God needs soldiers who will be willing to go behind enemy lines from time to time to try and rescue some of these captives. As Baptist deliverance minister Don Dickerman has said in his excellent new book, “When Pigs move In,” God needs an army, not an audience.

3. God Will Fight For You


These next set of verses will show us how God Himself will come to our aid and help us fight our battles when the enemy is coming directly after us. And sometimes that enemy will be real, live, demonic spirits.


The first two verses are major, and I mean major power verses, as they will show us that not only is our God a powerful Man of War, but that He can actually be stirred up to go into battle for us. And if God is for us and will help fight our battles for us, then who could possibly be against us – including any demonic spirits who may try and come against us.


Here are 24 major power verses that you can use against any demons who may attempt to come directly against you in this life. These verses again, will put the absolute fear of God into these demons and they will help drive them off of you or anyone else you may be trying to deliver from their evil grip.


”The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is His name … Your Right Hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power; Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces. And in the greatness of Your excellence you have overthrown those who rose against You; You sent forth Your wrath which consumed them like stubble.” (Exodus 15:3,6)

“The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.” (Exodus 14:14)


“Do not be afraid of their faces, for I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord. (Jeremiah 1:8)


“Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid nor dismayed before the king of Assyria, nor before all the multitude that is with him; for there are more with us than with him. With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the Lord our God, to help us and to fight our battles.” (2 Chronicles 32:7)


“The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms; He will thrust out the enemy from before you, and will say, ‘Destroy!’ ” (Deuteronomy 33:27)


“But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.” (2 Thessalonians 3:3)


“And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom.” (2 Timothy 4:18)


“If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31)


“When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.” (Isaiah 59:19)


“Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the saving strength of His right hand.” (Psalm 20:6)


“Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and You right hand will save me. The Lord will perfect that which concerns me …” (Psalm 138:7)


“The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.” (Psalm 34:17)


“For you shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight; for the Lord will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.” (Isaiah 52:12)


Do not say, “I will recompense evil;” Wait for the Lord, and He will save you.” (Proverbs 20:22)


“Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth; yet they have not prevailed against me … The Lord is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.” (Psalm 129:2)


“Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He has broken the gates of bronze, and cut the bars of iron in two.” (Psalm 107:15-16)


“God is a just judge, and God is angry with the wicked every day. If He does not turn back, He will sharpen His sword; He bends His bow and makes it ready. He also prepares for Himself instruments of death; He makes His arrows into fiery shafts.” (Psalm 7:11)


“He will guard the feet of His saints, but the wicked shall be silent in darkness. For by strength no man shall prevail. The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken in pieces; from heaven He will thunder against them. The Lord will judge the ends of the earth. He will give strength to His king, and exalt the horn of His anointed. (1 Samuel 2:9)


“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.” (Psalm 18:2)


“But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; He is their strength in time of trouble. And the Lord shall help them and deliver them; He shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in Him.” (Psalm 37:39)


“And the devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” (Revelation 20:10)


Again, when you read all of these verses one right after the other, you can really feel the power and seriousness that is on each one of them, and how hard God is trying to drive home the point that He will really come to our aid and help fight our battles for us if we will just call upon Him. No demon from hell can withstand the power of God once God starts to move against them as a powerful Man of War.
4. God Will Dry Up the Waters of the Enemy


One of the strategies I will be talking about in an upcoming article is how God will dry up the waters of the enemy. Waters are very important to both God and demons in the spiritual realm. In reference to the Holy Spirit, Jesus tells us in John 7:38 that out of our heart will flow rivers of living water. And the Word of God itself is compared to water in Ephesians 5:26, where it says that “with the washing of water by the word.”


In the same way, demons are also looking for water in which to feed and drink from in the spiritual realm. The verse that gives us this key piece of revelation is found in Matthew 12:43. This verse says that when demons leave a person they had been in, they go through“dry places,” and “seeking rest,” they find “none.” Here is this direct verse:




“When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.” (Matthew 12:43)


Notice that these demons are not finding rest in the dry places they are going through after they had just left a person. If they are not finding rest in those dry places, then that tells you they do not like dry places. And if they do not like dry places, then that tells you they like places that will give them some kind of water.


And once they enter into a person because of the appropriate legal rights being given to them, then they will start to feed and drink from the water that is on the inside of the person. And what is the water they are drinking from on the inside of that person? It is thelegal rights that allowed them entrance into this person in the first place. That is why once you break all of their legal rights, you will dry up all of their waters. And once you dry up all of their waters, you will severely weaken them and they will have nothing else left to be able to feed and drink from.


Weaken the demons with these kinds of additional strategies, and they will be much easier to cast out once you start to directly engage with them. Here are some verses from back in the OT that will show you that this was one of the warfare strategies that God the Father used from time to time against some of the enemies that Israel had to face.


“A drought is against her waters, and they will be dried up. For it is the land of carved images, and they are insane with their idols.” (Jeremiah 50:38)


“Therefore thus says the Lord: Behold, I will plead your case and take vengeance for you. I will dry up her sea and make her springs dry. Babylon shall become a heap, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment and a hissing, without an inhabitant.” (Jeremiah 51:36-37)


“The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and dried up. The rivers will turn foul, and the brooks of defense will be emptied and dried up; the reeds and rushes will wither.” (Isaiah 19:5-6)


“The Lord has His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of His feet. He rebukes the sea and makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers. Basham and Carmel wither, and the flower of Lebanon wilts.” (Nahum 1:3-4)


“When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.” (Matthew 12: 43-45)


This particular strategy will be talked about in more depth in an upcoming heavy article on how to cast out demons who are on the inside of a person.
5. Battle Angels Will Help Protect Us and Fight for Us


Not only will God Himself help fight our battles for us, especially against demonic spirits, but these next set of verses will show us that His battle angels will also help protect us and fight for us when needed.


As such, you can simply ask God to station these battle angels around you when you get ready to directly engage with any demons who may be trying to come against you. These warrior angels will not only come to help protect you, but at times they can also war directly against the demons themselves – all on your behalf.


“The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them.” (Psalm 34:7)


“For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.” (Psalm 91:11)


“And let the angel of the Lord chase him … And let the angel of the Lord pursue them … Let the destruction come upon him unexpectedly.” (Psalm 35:5-8)


“Behold, I sent an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.” (Exodus 23:20)


“Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?” (Hebrews 1:14)


“For Satan himself transforms himself into an ANGEL OF LIGHT. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.” (2 Corinthians 11:14)


“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, BUT TEST THE SPIRITS, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.” (1 John 4:1-4)


The last two verses will help warn us that Satan and his demons can try and come to us acting like they are one of God’s angels. If an angel were all of a sudden to ever appear to you, you have to properly test him to make sure that he is one of God’s angels.


The way you do it is by asking him to confess out to you that Jesus Christ has already come to our earth in the flesh. A demon will not be able to make that kind of a confession to you. If by chance the angel fails this test, then just command it to immediately leave you in the name of Jesus Christ.
CONCLUSION


Again, we cannot emphasize strongly enough how powerful all of these battle verses are when having to deal direct with any kind of demonic spirits. Jesus has already totally defeated Satan and all of his demons at the cross. All of these battle verses are just a constant reminder to every single demon who is still roaming out there in the air that they are already defeated.


By using these types of battle verses against demons, you will show them the following three things:

That you mean serious business with them

That you know who you are in Jesus Christ

And that they will be no match against you if they try to stay and fight – as you will have both the Word of God, the power of the Holy Spirit, and some of God’s battle angels by your side to be able to fight directly against them and totally defeat them
Again, these battle verses will give you all of the major ammunition that you will ever need to be able to totally defeat any demons who may ever come your way in this life. Remember, it is the Word of God and the power of the Holy Spirit moving against the demons that will drive them out of whatever situation you are currently dealing with.


Also, if you would like to draw up your own personal, battle prayer like we have done in many of our testimonies, you can just simply cut and paste which battle verses you would like to use on a word document, and then form out your own personal battle prayer so you can directly engage with them.

A little respect will do

Jesus is also a son. Imagine how Mary grief over Jesus while He was being punished by us. We are not worthy to be saved but He still chose too. Mary's grief toward Jesus cannot measured. But still She did not give any grudge unto us. In spite of the wrong heretic issues about Mary She remained humble and still helps us to be closer to Her Son Jesus Christ. She prays for us in heaven. Why not love Her like Jesus did while He was still here and now in heaven? She's also a mother. And She's the Mother of God. She also deserves respect. No one knows what are the heartaches She had gone through just to see His only Son redeeming us. Paying for the sins that He did not commit. She saw everything that we didn't see while Jesus was still here on earth. She saw every foot step Jesus had taken. And every nail that screwed into Jesus' hands. See how Mary loves Her Son and us. . .

 

If Jesus was here He would probably said. She's my Mother and She loves me more than anything. If you love me, you can respect Her and treat Her as your Mother too.

It was said before "beware"

At the end part of the Bible it was mentioned that there would be a lot of seduction of Christianity before the second coming of Christ. Last May 21 many both believers or not trembled of what believed the rapture or  the Second coming of Jesus Christ. In the Philippines it was said that it would happen at exactly May 21 at exactly 6:00 pm. Harold Camping supported what he claimed true by gathering many followers to spread the news of the "rapture day".


It was sad to know that many believed and followed him. Many had sold their things just to spread the heretic issue Camping had spread. In the Bible in the book of Revelations. The apostles warned us of False Prophets and many would claim Jesus Christ and many would follow him. Over 20,000 radio stations across America many bought what Camping had said(May 21, rapture day).


On the exact date and time my sister Sarah and I together with some of our friends in church were outside our house practicing for our presentation in Church. One of us asked if we believe of what Camping said. My sister and I both answered "no". We have faith in God and His the only one whom should we believe and follow. 


What happened to some believers of Harold Camping are the signs that they got deceived by a False Prophet. They got trapped by the serpent. We were warned before "beware many would claim but only trust God". Now we should not fall for the same trick again. We should only trust God for His the only One who knows when will be next coming of  His Son.


The serpent may misled others because of what Harold Camping said. Many believed and followed him. The serpent did well but he wont succeed next time. God is greater than him. He may seduce few but God can attract many.
