We’ve all heard that pride comes before destruction and an arrogant spirit before a fall, (Proverbs 16:18), but do you realize just how far this can go? You can fall so far that you end up in Hell. How so? Do you fail to acknowledge Jesus as your Savior because it might make you seem religious and weak, even though secretly you know it’s the right thing to do? Saving face can keep you out of Heaven. Do you want…..
When pondering a lack of answered prayer in warfare over a friend, the LORD reminded me: “Chop, chop, chop.” This is not about preparing Mexican food. I knew right away what He meant. He was referring to Isaiah 23:29: Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?” How many times do you have to hit a rock with a hammer before it shatters?

Quit boring the hosts of Heaven, and give them something to fight with: speak the Word of the Living God…..
Have you ever been around a cat who is terrified of loud noises, and reacts by tearing up everything around it with razor-sharp claws? I have… I have scars on my wrist to prove it from 10 years ago. You can’t do anything but drop the bugger, and let it have its way. I believe one of my cats is a better guard dog than a German Shepherd. Throw her on an intruder, and their face would soon be meat…..
