Failure isn’t Forever

April 14, 2016 by ccorwin

I deal with many adults who have diseases from the fear of failing others, performance, and perfectionism.

Some people spend their entire life trying to make everyone else happy and make no allowance for weakness or failure in themselves. They think to admit weakness or failure would mean that they failed. However, that’s a deceptive form of entrapment where our value is based on how good we are and how well we do. The enemy tells these individuals there is no allowance for weakness or failure because that might mean they won’t be loved or accepted if they didn’t handle or respond to something perfectly.

True Test of Spirituality

March 24, 2016 by ccorwin

How does God operate on earth? Through you! How does Satan operate in this planet? Through you! Reality check time. A true test of your spirituality is found in Hebrews.

¹³For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

¹⁴But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Hebrews 5:13-14

Don’t Answer Too Fast!

I want to ask everyone a question. Do you really hate sin? Now, for believers, the first answer is, of course, “I hate sin.”

Now, some of you may know that you do not hate sin the way you need to. There is not one person who can say, “yes, I totally hate sin,” because you are still entangled with the sin within. You cannot say you totally hate it because the enemy will come to accuse and condemn you and tell you that you really do like sin.

So what should the answer be for an overcomer?

Speak Life

Be strong and very courageous that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded thee. Turn not from it to the right hand or to the left. Why? Why do you need to follow the Word of God? That you may prosper wherever you go. This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; didn’t say heart, didn’t say soul, it said mouth? Why? Because the Bible says out of the heart – out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh.

You Can Overcome!

The Word says that anything that will not stand the test of fire will be burnt up. So you can count on all the works of the flesh not making it into heaven. The works of the flesh don’t exist in God’s kingdom! You can forget about strife ruling in heaven. You can forget about anger dominating in heaven. You can forget about lust governing in heaven. You can forget about fear reigning in heaven. They never have and they never will.

What’s Love Got to do with it?

This teaching from the For My Life® program helps us better understand what Unloving spirits really are. The Unloving spirit is one of the most common and widespread spiritual afflictions of mankind, yet it is usually not recognized. Unloving spirits cause us to dislike ourselves and withdraw from others.We must realize that these feelings and conclusions about ourselves are neither normal nor inevitable, but rather, the effect of spirits which God does not want in our lives.

The Part of You That’s Not Really You

Romans 7:17 says “Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.” This is Paul, an apostle of the church, born again, filled with the Spirit of God, teaching righteousness and he’s saying he’s got sin within.

Maybe you’ve been taught that when you become born again, your spirit man becomes totally pure from sin. Paul didn’t teach that, nor does the rest of the bible. It’s about time that we defuse one of the most insidious lies to hit Christianity in 2,000 years.
