Demons: Possession In The Industry
"We are all familiar with the phrase, 'battling with my demons' whether it be from a recovering drug addict seeking help to a catholic priest..."

Keanu Reeves - "I attempt to connect with my muse and go on demon rides..."
Johnny Depp - "Sometimes I feel like I'm possessed with a multitude of demons..."
Denzel Washington - "I get on my knees and call on spirits to possess my body and empower me to play a given role."
Oprah Winfrey - "I tried to empty myself and let the spirit of Sethe inhabit me..."



Remember him?
Houston was a very popular R & B artist in 2004, mentored by fellow artist Nate Dogg. Houston, shortly became a one-hit wonder with his most notable song "I Like That". However, his short lived success was not because of lack of talent or marketing ability but a more troubling situation.
Christian Encouragement Poems
DON'T GIVE UP
The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. (Psalms 9:9-10 KJV)
Though the nights be long and drear, there is never cause for fear
Don't give up
He will turn your night to day, He will drive all gloom away.
Don't give up.
When the days are dark as night, When there's none who care in sight.
Don't give up.
Though the way be long and rough and the fighting hard and tough
Don't give up.
When your trials rise mountains high, You can know the Lord is nigh
Don't give up.
When your friends all turn you down, and upon you simply frown
Don't give up.
When the powers of sin assail, Christ the Savior will prevail
Don't give up.
Tho His love they often spurn, from your Savior's soon return.
Don't give up

LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED
In John 14, Jesus Comforts His Disciples
1 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. 2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Jesus the Way to the Father
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Let not your heart be troubled
Fighting within and without
Let not your heart be troubled
Evil moving around and about
Let not your heart be troubled
Believe in God, Believe in Me
Let not your heart be troubled
Preparing A home for to see
Let not your heart be troubled
I'll come again, count on Me
Let not your heart be troubled
I'm waiting, for you to greet
Let not your heart be troubled
My Holy Council you will meet
Let not your heart be troubled
My Grace sways all sin away
Let not your heart be troubled
By faith I accept Him today
Amen

FOR BY GRACE
For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not of works, that no one should boast". (Ephesians2:8-9) To that I shout "Amen"
You've heard the old clichรฉ, "There's no free lunch". This may stand true, in the secular world. However, in God's perfect world, His gift of Salvation is free and available to "whosoever may come". For you see, you can never earn your way nor ever be good enough, to enter into an eternal relationship with the living God on your own merit. You just simply excise your faith and except God's free Grace to change your life.
For by Grace
The world was spoke in place.
For By Grace
The stars were hung in space.
For by Grace
From the dust of the land.
For By Faith
Gods own image He did span.
For by Grace
The Garden was mans fall.
For By Grace
Sin punished one and all.
For by Grace
Men of old in faith believed.
For By Grace
Sins pardon was received.
For by Grace
By faith now all may know.
For By Grace
Freedom from sin to bestow
For By Grace

IN GOD'S BIG LOOKING GLASS
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I shall know fully just as I also have been fully known. (I Corinthians 13:12)
"Alice" is playing with her kittens—a white kitten (whom she calls "Snowdrop") and a black kitten (whom she calls "Kitty"), the offspring of Dinah, Alice's cat in the first book—when she ponders what the world is like on the other side of a mirror's reflection. Climbing up on the fireplace mantel, she pokes at the wall-hung mirror behind the fireplace and discovers, to her surprise, that she is able to step through it to an alternative world, "The Looking Glass Land".
What if we could step through "The Looking Glass", as did Alice, and get a view of God's eternal Will for our life. Would our day change? Would we be more receptive to His Will for our life. Would we be more obedient? Well, since we can't step through the "Looking Glass" , we must except God's plan, by faith and continue our day-to-day meditation with our "Living God".
As my life began
My thought did span
Over all the land
In God's Big Looking Glass
From the song I pine
Hearts music to chime
Heaven songs divine
In God's Big Looking Glass
Yesterday is old news
Tomorrow is abused
Today I must choose
In God's Big Looking Glass
From all my sin
My life did mend
With God within
In God's Big Looking Glass
Getting ready to fly
Beyond Heaven's sky
In the sweet by-and-by
In God's Big Looking Glass
Amen!

Introduction to Jesus
Who is Jesus? A Deeper Understanding of His Identity and Mission
Introduction
Jesus Christ is more than just a historical figure; He is the divine Word of God, the creator and sustainer of all things, and the source of grace and truth. Understanding Jesus goes beyond mere intellectual knowledge—it requires a deep, personal relationship with Him. As Tim Greenwood emphasizes, true revelation comes through fellowship with Jesus, abiding in His Word, and continually seeking His presence.
Jesus as the Divine Creator and Sustainer
The Bible affirms Jesus’s divine nature and eternal existence. The Gospel of John states:
John 1:1-3 (KJV): "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made."
This passage confirms that Jesus, as the Word (Logos), was not only present at creation but was actively involved in it. He is the pre-existing Son of God, who holds all things together.
Colossians 1:16-17 (KJV): "For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist."
The Call to Personal Relationship: Learning OF Jesus
Many people learn about Jesus but do not truly know Him. There is a crucial difference between head knowledge and heart revelation.
John 17:3 (KJV): "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent."
This verse underscores the essence of eternal life—not just acknowledging God’s existence but knowing Him personally through Jesus Christ.
Jesus invites us into this relationship:
Matthew 11:28-29 (KJV): "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls."
This call to "learn of" Jesus means experiencing His love, wisdom, and power through fellowship with Him.
The Importance of Coming to Jesus Continuously
Seeking Jesus is not a one-time event; it is an ongoing journey of faith.
John 6:35 (KJV): "And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst."
We are called to continually "come" to Jesus, feeding on His Word and growing in grace.
James 4:8 (KJV): "Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded."
As we draw near to Jesus, He draws near to us, transforming our lives through His presence.
Grace and Truth in Jesus
Grace and truth are inseparable in Christ. Through Him, we receive unmerited favor and divine revelation.
John 1:14 (KJV): "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."
His grace enables us to live in truth, and His truth sets us free:
John 8:32 (KJV): "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
Jesus as the Saving Word
Jesus is the ultimate revelation of God. He is the light of the world, bringing life to all who believe in Him.
John 1:4-5 (KJV): "In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not."
To accept Jesus as the Living Word is to accept the fullness of God’s love and redemption.
Romans 10:9 (KJV): "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
Conclusion
Jesus is not merely a historical teacher or religious figure—He is the eternal Word of God, the Creator, the Redeemer, and the source of life. Knowing Him is the key to spiritual fulfillment and eternal salvation. This relationship requires more than just intellectual understanding; it demands ongoing fellowship, prayer, and abiding in His Word.
As we continuously "come" to Jesus, we receive revelation, transformation, and the fullness of grace and truth. May we seek not only to learn about Him but to truly learn OF Him, walking in His presence daily.
John 14:6 (KJV): "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
Let us come to Jesus, abide in Him, and experience the fullness of life He offers.
