Passagem: Efésios 6:10-18 Chave bíblica: “Tomai também o CAPACETE DA SALVAÇÃO e a espada do Espírito, que é a palavra de Deus” (Efésios 6:17) O inimigo a avistava de longe e estremecia com a visão. De todas as espadas que um soldado romano poderia usar, esta era a mais mortal. Na realidade, a “machaira” poderia medir até 48 centímetros, mas frequentemente era menor, semelhante a um punhal, sendo normalmente utilizada em combate corpo a corpo. Era afiada em ambos os lados das lâminas e a Continue Reading

My Latest AJC Colum: “Help in The Valley of Anxiety or Depression”
It started with a tingling feeling on my hands and feet. I was working on my computer and the distracting sensation made me stand up and start moving around. The numbness did not get better. Instead, my heart started racing uncontrollably and horrible thoughts invaded my mind. I was dying. I just knew it. I was 25 years old when the first panic attack occurred. That episode started a myriad of doctor visits and countless tests, confirming that there wasn’t anything wrong with my heart or Continue Reading
Declare Vida – Parte 1
“La muerte y la vida están en poder de la lengua, y el que la ama comerá de sus frutos.” Proverbios 18:21 “Estoy gorda.” “No puedo conseguir un trabajo.” “No puedo hacer nada bien.” “Nunca saldré de estas deudas.” “El Príncipe Encantado está perdido y no logra encontrar el Castillo.” Con mucha frecuencia escucho este tipo de comentarios de cristianos fieles y yo misma he sido culpable de hacer muchas de estas declaraciones. Declaraciones venenosas que repetimos una y otra vez sin pensarlo Continue Reading
Speak Life (Part 2) – The Encourager
Key Verse: “Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a word spoken in right circumstances.” Proverbs 25:11 An ornate chamber, richly adorned with silver panels and fruits carved in gold. As beautiful piece of decoration as can be imagined. This fine metaphor is used by Solomon in order to give the highest possible praise for a word spoken at the right time. I remember the feelings such words instilled in me as a child. Whenever an adult would recognize that something I did or said Continue Reading
Andando Com A Turma Errada
Versículo-chave: “Amados, não creiais a todo espírito, mas provai se os espíritos vêm de Deus; porque muitos falsos profetas têm saído pelo mundo.” 1 João 4:1 “Diga-me com quem andas que direi quem és” Eu seria uma mulher rica, se ganhasse um dólar para cada vez que ouvi isto de minha mãe quando era adolescente. Minha mãe estava certa. Assim como um bom amigo pode ajudar-nos a tomar sábias decisões, companhias fúteis ou negativas podem nos levar abaixo e nos impedir de caminhar Continue Reading
I Believe! – Post By Adriana Holbrook
“There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism,and one God and Father, who is over all and in all and living through all.” -Ephesians 4:5-6 NLT I had been struggling for some time, wondering whether or not God is real. I talked to my mom about it. I asked her – what if the bible is ust another book, like The Chronicles of Narnia? She told me that believing is a matter of faith, like for example we believe in the wind but we cannot see it! She also told me that the only way I would know that Continue Reading
