Navigating relationships with toxic family members can be one of the most challenging trials for a believer. When manipulation, lies, and betrayal become a pattern, it is essential to recognize that these are not just personal or emotional issues — they are spiritual battles. Many people find themselves caught in cycles of abuse, deception, and psychological warfare at the hands of their own relatives. As Christians, we must learn how to identify these attacks, protect ourselves spiritually, and stand firm in our faith without being drawn into the enemy’s schemes. 1. Recognizing the Enemy’s Attacks Through Family For many believers, the hardest battles come not from strangers, but from those who should be our closest supporters — our family. Some individuals experience: False accusations — Being unjustly blamed for actions never…

Living in a world filled with violence, crime, and uncertainty can be overwhelming. It’s natural to feel fear when you constantly hear of killings, corruption, and danger all around you. Especially when you live in a country that has corrupt governments which don’t help but are part of the problem. This can be a drain for citizen’s to constantly watch on the news horrible stories of criminals taking control of the streets and commiting horrible acts to innocent people. But as Christians, we are not powerless — God has given us authority, protection, and strength to overcome fear and stand firm in His promises. One of the most powerful verses to hold onto in times of fear is Luke 10:19: “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power…

In today’s world, we are constantly told to believe in ourselves, to love ourselves above all, and to put our desires first. This message is everywhere — in self-help books, social media, and even popular culture. However, as followers of Christ, we must ask: Is this the message that God teaches us? The Word of God provides a very different instruction — one of self-denial, trust in Him, and total devotion to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The First Commandment: Love God Above All Jesus made it clear that our first and greatest commandment is to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind: “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy…

Fear is one of the enemy’s greatest weapons. Satan uses fear, lies, and false accusations to weaken believers, distract us from God’s truth, and steal our peace. But as Christians, we are not left defenseless. God has given us His Word as a powerful arsenal to combat fear and every fiery dart of the enemy. This post is a go-to tool filled with powerful New Testament verses from the King James Version (KJV) to help you reject lies, stand strong, and live boldly in the victory Christ has won for you. 1. God Has Not Given Us Fear “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” — 2 Timothy 1:7 Whenever fear grips your heart, remember: it is…

The other day I had a horrible nightmare, seemingly out of nowhere. In this dream, I was part of a gruesome, horrific, and violent murder scene — and I was the one committing the act. It was disturbing and sickening. I’ve never been a violent person neither would ever have these horrible tendencies or wish them to anyone (now even more so as a Christian), so waking up from that dream left me deeply shaken and confused. I mentioned this dream to my wife and I thought that I might have been under attack possibly. Coincidentally, I used to watch horror movies before I was a Christian since I was a kid as young as 6 years of age, having grown up in the 80’s and 90’s, I loved horror…
