The light for me is the holy spirit that dwells inside of you.

I felt God gave a tough life.

For many years I felt it was unfair but then God showed there was much purpose in my pain.

Brittany, from USA,

God is my guiding Light!

Dietra, from USA The light is what shines through the darkness.. Only light can shine through darkness.. darkness cannot control light.. but light cuts through darkness..Jesus is the one true light of anything and everything... in the beginning he was the light... and he will show it again one day when he returns... Love you brother Kevin Mosley from USA

Well, the Light for me, as Christian obviously, is Jesus.

But also the Light for me, in general, is something that brings Life! I mean like even a feast in a dark neighorhood, where they sell drugs and do all those things, a place like that, with a heavy and dark daily reality, and you have a group of people volunteering there, with kids, doing theater, plays, music and all those kind of stuff.... etc etc.. and many other things that is the Light for me, in a dark world.

Obviously it is even the light in a candle or the light of the sun.

Is persecution real?

Win evil with good (part 1 )

I knew a person that was persecuted in a village by buddhists. She became christian and her husband, family and all the town banned her from normal life, shops.... everything. I knew her through a chat, staying friends and till now. She has a son, very young and...... she kept proclaiming the Gospel of the King in that region... so... it seems for me persecution is real when you do something which you believe in, that I called it the Truth. If you are Muslim and you preach to defend the poor and you are persecuted for this....... then the problem becomes also what is the truth for you and for me (if it's right to do that, etc..) and we have a lot to say about it. Jesus said: "For this I came.... to give testimony to the Truth"..... but for sure, as just today I got insulted in town again by people saying "persecution, persecution" while maybe they saw my posts, having fun of me, .... I say: you cannot be able to see or better to have that, persecution I mean, if you keep doing what the others, the mass, do in evil. "If you were of the world, the world would love its own [John 1 5:1 9 ]... it hates Me, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil [John 7:7]". That's what I believe.

And this is a truth that I am finding out in my life... To win evil with good... incomprehensions with talking for first, be the first to say sorry..... Etc, etc..... Or like now, spreading something in the web while lost on the streets,.... Do something.... Win evil.... unemployment, solitude....... With good...... with Love, intelligence, forgiveness.... If not, (I think I am seeing it better in the place where I am), if you don't act, evil already won you or will very soon, within some minute, even without you neither notice it or, for ignorance, in general, you don't understand it. The mass instead usually consider good what is evil. At least here. So they are totally blinded, plus slaves of evil, for their and the others' damage in life, in their lives.

As an old man here told me: if you don't move, evil comes. Another person told me to do what I already knew to do, and I add, "soon" (a brother through a messenger call).

These were precious advices to me, before to say goodbye to those precious persons. I just wanna say that I need strength though to practise it, the good, or what the Word says, and soon. Learning that if I don't pray I will never obtain it. And also it has to be the will of God to stay or go in a certain place or situation to face evil. Sometimes evil is so strong that you just need to leave the place, as the Lord made several times too. Just cuz I think as men we are limited. But all is in the hands of God. That can always protect us and the evil has no power on Him. Eternal price and true reward are our engine and interior strength. It's better to suffer doing good, that don't suffer and doing evil. Evil cannot touch us with Him. So much to say. I conclude saying Peter's words: "For it is better to suffer for doing right, if that should be God’s will, than for doing wrong. - Peter 3:1 7".

Win the evil with good (part 2) Do not let yourself be won by the evil, but win evil with good. This sentence struck me a lot.

So evil can win you. Yes. But what is evil.

First of all it is death, but also spiritual death.

From the second one, also, comes the other death, I believe, death of the body. As even in the Garden, Adam and Eve died spiritually, before than physically. Just for disobeying.

Just to not keep God's Word inside of them, not listening to God, and so becoming His disciples. Friends. To Love. So death came.

God is Spirit and He is Life. He departed from them after they listened another voice. They were tested, I believe. Why did they not listen? I know and believe that God knew human weakness since the beginning, and planned since then, before all that and the creation, to send His Son. Or maybe planned it like a plan B, if man would have been failed.

Or maybe not. But communion with Him was wanted and restored since the beginning.

So I am learning more to take the initiative and to understand (cuz seeing it) that if I don't act in good automatically I do evil or, anyway, it comes and win me even without I notice it or think about it. The problem for me now is to have the strenght to avoid it. And learned and trying to apply it: God is my strength, as written. And so I have to seek Him. Stay near Him, practically. Maybe even and or just obeying Him. I am seeing in life we have to do, to work, to operate, always as the Father does, to stay alive and in faith.

We need doctrine to understand it. We need prayer to have strength. We need brothers and sisters to stay with God. And when you operate in good also you will reap your works. Accumulating treasures in heaven also, giving to the poor, and as man, here in the natural world, simply applying His good teachings, for myself too.

Give credit to Him, not to them Don't give to others the glory that belongs only to God. Hard these words to understand, I know, I got them only lately. But push away, in front of others' face, every hypocrisy, say

things in face, be courageous. Be strong, show to be a man. Be faithful to your good values.

There are some things that must be respected.

Like Truth, dignity..... faithfulness, clarity, sincerity...... Especially when in some kind of relationship. If not, go for your way and leave them, that's what I am learning more lately. As Christ did with some fake religious people too.

Some people will stay near you just for having you close when you stay better, cuz they know you stay bad now. But some of them will do that only for themselves. It's not true pity (talking about a man in need). You can recognize them by their fruits, their doings in life. And for a man the Word of God, that Satan wants to hide to your knowledge, is the key to discern the real Truth. Cuz I didn't know that it is also Alive. Hard to explain. Like it's hard to explain to others the love you live with your wife/husband or a girl/boy, e.g.. So much to say.... Just be with God, and when time will come for you to be set free, finally, liberation from something, success, freedom in general... give the Glory that you probably will receive, to Him. If faithful to Him in the process, complete with Him. Cuz it's for Him, if you listen to Him, that you have what you got. Don't let people steal the Glory that He gave to you. May it be your job, a wife/husband or any other kind of success. Stay with Him and be hidden, in your life, in Him. Don't let people steal what's yours, your joy and reward. #GodIsGood #GodIsLight

However, when you come across a Jezebel spirit, it is something quite different. Some people have called this a “master” type spirit.

Not that it is a master spirit in the sense of being like God, but that it is much more intelligent and cunning than a lot of the other demons are.

Many believe that this type of spirit may be Satan’s smartest and most cunning and evil spirit he has, and he thus dispatches this kind of spirit on specific targets so he can get the most bang for his buck.

Simply put, a Jezebel spirit is one of Satan’s higher-ranking, more intelligent demons if not the smartest kind of demon he has in his kingdom.

And with it being much more intelligent than many of the other lower-ranking demons will be, this makes this type of spirit much more evil, cunning, and harder to deal with once it moves in and attaches to a person.

And with this kind of evil spirit being much more cunning, intelligent, and evil than some of the other lower-ranking demons will be, it will cause a lot more trouble and destruction if it is not quickly dealt with and cast out.

Looking back over my 5 encounters I have had with this spirit, the one thing I have noticed are two specific things: One, this spirit operates in basically the same way every time it moves in on someone. As a result, it is actually easy to spot after a certain length of time. In other words, it keeps playing the same types of games every time it moves in on a person or a situation.

The second thing I noticed is that this spirit is much more intelligent, cunning, and seductive than many of the other types of demons will be. It will thus be capable of playing more than one type of game with you.

For example, a spirit of anger will only try to make you mad and angry, but a Jezebel spirit will play a number of different games with you as I will show you below when I start to describe the way it will operate and the different kinds of games it will use to try and bring you down.

As a result of this type of spirit being capable of playing more than one kind of game with you, this makes this kind of spirit much more

from bible-knowledge.com "Jezebel Spirit and How it Operates"

Jezebel (part 3)

deadly and destructive. If this spirit is not properly exposed and dealt with within a reasonable length of time, it can totally destroy and completely bring down a marriage, church, ministry, company, or an individual’s life.

The Bible tells us in Matthew 1 2:43 that there are levels of wickedness in Satan’s kingdom. And if there are levels of wickedness in his kingdom where some demons are actually more evil than some of the other ones will be, then I believe there may different levels of intelligence among the demons as well.

The Jezebel spirit, since it is much more intelligent than some of the lower ranking demons will be, is very good at playing head games with people. It is a total control freak, and it is also very good at manipulation and getting people to do its evil bidding.

Over the years, I have developed quite a bit of information on this type of evil spirit and how it operates, and I now want to share it with all of you so you will be able to spot one if it ever moves into your circle of influence – whether it be in your marriage, in your church, at your place of employment, or in between any of your personal friendships, as this evil spirit loves to break up good and godly relationships.

: the city where I studied and that I love so much !

Photo took by a me, near the port of the city, waiting for the metro.

I advice you so much to visit her! Walking on her streets, visiting her places ...... talking with her people.

- Not so good, but cheap transports.

- Amazing and excellent food! It's south Italy!!! Cheap too in general.

- Almost impossible to find a job there too, nowadays and since forever [historical problem].

- Lived there between 2002 and 2009 for the most. I went there often even after: 4 months or more in 2011 , 4-5 months again in 201 3, then in 201 4 ..... and many other times. I hope to come back there again soon now!

China's ghost cities: did you know it?

I didn't know about "ghost cities" in China, or even in Africa, what the Chinese government is doing and did. I see so lack of Wisdom in that, indeed their projects failed. I saw 1 0 on internet, just Google it. I don't how many they are. I see them as a scary thing, and in the "puzzle" of that great evil project in the world, using pornography too, I see them as possible future lagers in the world near future. I know it seems pessimist, but to me it is so real, cuz so many other things to say about this "puzzle", that already realized and happening.

The only solution I see now is to try with Christian communities there, Word of God in chinese people, making every place beautiful and not scary, or to destroy them. And soon. That seems impossible. [Ordos in the pic] #Saw3DaysAgo #EvenFarFutureAft er3or4Generations #InThisWorldRunni ngSoFastItCanHap penSoon #PrayedAndPrayin g #ItsAllAboutGod <3 <3

"Ghost cities" in Africa too. Angola in the pic.

Always the bad project I talked about before. I didn't know about it and, in general, about these cities, in China first, here now. I invite you to read what I wrote in the previous pic about these cities. Anyway I think that they can be "restored", especially for their future I mean, with a Christian community. Not Confucius (I heard they are entering not only in the financial, but also political and cultural world there). Even if I think it is a good thing for now (Confucius institutes) cuz it shows the good side and heart of Chinese people (searching for God too, as we do too) that I love so much. But also our God taught us, teaches me directly what it means to be wise. If I had bad visions and they realized and then again and now again and always on the same, it seems, bad project of the evil, we should pay attention and rapidly act. And, also cuz I am always a christian, this for me is now the solution, and then christian communities are nothing else that Love. Reunited to share the Word and Love, talking and staying together, taking care one for another (the real christian communities), etc...

And the Lord is there, His presence. U can taste it. No need to make sponsors for this or for God. Just denouncing now what I think can happen.

United we can. In the name of Love for a more human world and future. For our children and descendent. <3 <3 #HereWeAre #TruthSeekers #SaltOfTheWorldThroughLove

From Walk with your children

A MOM

January 2, 201 8 - Rahab Wambui Children are a gift from the Lord. They don’t belong to us, we are just custodians. Parenting is not easy and our children do not come with manuals. We need to take time and reflect on the expectations we have for their lives. As parents, we can break or make the lives of our children. Below are just a few lessons we can teach them early so that we put them on the right path.

Obeying God: Teach children about God at an early age. God is our Father and every child should know that. It is the responsibility of parents to take their children to church religiously. The church should invest in the children ministry so as to help mold children in the best way possible. They should put in a lot of resources so as to make sure that children are taught the word of God well so as to be able to stand firm even in future. How much has the cartoon industry invested so as to attract children? Many churches take the children’s ministry with little or no seriousness. Every church should invest in the children ministry so as to nurture them in the best way possible.

Disciplining Children: The Bible is very clear on matters attaining to disciplining of children. If you fail to instill good behavior in your children early enough, they are likely to become a burden to you and the society. There is a saying in Kiswahili that says ‘asiyefunzwa na mamaye atafunzwa na dunia’ meaning that if you fail to discipline your child, the world will do it and you know how ruthless the world can be.

For example if your child becomes a thief and you fail to correct it early enough, the world may do it by having him jailed for life or face death through mob justice.

Proverbs 23:1 3~1 4 says 1 3 “Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. 1 4 If you strike him with the rod, you will save his soul from Sheol.”

Obedience: There is a common saying that says “obedience is better than sacrifice.” It is important to teach children to practice obedience rather than struggle with the sacrifices that come with lack of obedience.

Teach them how to choose obedience over sacrifice. For example if a child starts taking drugs, the cost of rehabilitation is very high and chances are that he or she will never be normal again.

Colossians 3:20 says “Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord”. If children obey their parents they also please God. Ephesians 6:1 -3 says “Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.

Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth”. The Lord is telling us that failure to obey our parents will reduce our days here on earth. These are powerful promises from God and cannot be taken for granted. So we need to do our bit by obeying our parents so that the Lord may fulfil this promise of lengthening our days on earth.

falling into the hands of bad friends.

Peer pressure: Children should be taught on how to believe in themselves, how to choose right from wrong and how to say no and mean it. Many children do not believe in themselves and that is the reason they they easily fall into bad company. Peer pressure may have some negative impacts on children and especially when they are looking for acceptance because to ‘fit in’ they must practice what their peers ask them to do. It is the duty of parents to love, reaffirm and reassure their children so that they can boost their confidence or otherwise they will go to look for love from peers and end up

How do you want them to remember you? Children learn mostly by seeing and not hearing. It is very important to set a good example to your children.

You should also aspire to be their role model. Let them pick good aspects from you and let them also have good memories of you even in old age or otherwise how do you want them to remember you? Go out of your way to treat them with love and respect and that way they will also treat others in the same light. Create time for for them and let them know that you truly love them. Children are precious and they need to know that. Sacrifice time to celebrate their milestones.

Something about

Character

Character................. I personally believe that this word seems to be

like a very small and simple word, but especially for those who don't know about spirituality. When a person is not aware towards his calling by God, he usually does major blunders in life, sometimes inside or outside the body. But it happens when they don't know about the real definition of character. In CHRISTIANITY, we can learn the real truth behind character and it was a strange experience for me when I started to read the Bible. Although success depends upon our best character. We all know God is holy. ln Bible, Romans chapter 1 verse 4-5, it says by whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith, in all nations, for his home. Among whom you are also the called of Jesus Christ. It reflects directly about the calling. So what is the calling of Jesus Christ, what He wants us to do.

For this we should know about Him that why he was the one who is known as living God. He has the right of heaven and hell. This statement surprised me in knowing the truth of character. 2 Corinthians, verse 20-21 , for all the promises of God are in Him, it is therefore also by Him, Amen to God, unto our glory. Now He that confirmeth us with you in Christ, and that hath anointed us, is God. These verses deliver a beautiful message about calling for us through mighty God. In Matthew chapter 5, verse 8 says, blessed are the clean of heart for they shall see God, so all these things present a specific picture of purity. But can we imagine what kind of purity??????? It may be a clean heart without discrimination or something else. But Bible clearly gives a message in Peter chapter 1 verse 1 5-1 6, but according to Him, that hath called you, who is holy, be you also in all manner of conversationly. Because it is written: you shall be holy, for I am holy. It is true that if we want to dwell a holy character in our life we should have to follow him blindly. He is One Who never attempts any mistake during His time. His heart was full of holiness, it means he was completely holy from head to toes. We should need to control on our body which sometimes force us to do wrong things. And if our mind will be successful to prove ourself wrong then we cannot go for worship God cuz this attitude always is trying to make you feel like a sinner in front of God. Through holy character we can achieve the holy spirit. In John chapter 1 4 verse 1 5-20 bible says "if you love me, you will keep my commandments and I will ask the Father, and he shall give you another Paraclete, that he may abide with you forever. The spirit of truth, who the world cannot receive, cuz it seeth him not, nor knoweth him, but you shall know him, cuz he shall abide with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you orphans, I will come to you. I will come to you. Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more. But you see me, cuz I live in you and you in me, and me in you. He that hath my commandments, and keepth them, he it is that loveth me, shall be loved by my Father, I will love him, and I will manifest myself to him. So these are the promises of God and you will be fruitful with the fruits of the HOLY SPIRIT. In Jeremiah chapter 29 verse 11 God says "For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope". So my friends all, God is good all the time. I release fire upon your life and I rebuke every demonic power in the Powerful name of JESUS CHRIST to save your character in Jesus. It's an universal truth that I witnessed. In Deuteronomy, chapter 4 and verse 24 says, "because the Lord thy God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.. God bless all with eternal heavenly anointing those that are reading these precious words of God. STAY BLESSED. ....... AMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN :) :) :) :) Mandeep Kaur

iN Iran

Iran: what's happening?

I don't know what is written on the right, but I want to put this anyway, cuz I trust some people that are in the midst of their historical thing happening. Also, I do it just to report what is written and happening. But I don't know what it is about. I also didn't know and don't know many things, but I think that a system is always bad, it's a regime, even if it imposes you to work, e.g., it can become a regime, if never a day to rest in a week, etc. Any kind of system even if it seems based on good things, suffocates the spirit in a man, and his liberty.

Same here. Same in little things, then imagine if a system brings with it bad laws. I am just for that change just simply cuz it's a change. Cuz it seems natural to live with change. But you don't know if this can influence the future, giving to women so much power in a changing world, cuz generations change, but evil remains the same and horrific, and, for what I know, he has bad plans for humanity too, like in the sex and porn industry, using that, for maybe the next extermination of mass of people, like Hitler did. Not just a nuclear war, or terrorism and religious things like Jihad or ISIS. Evil can use and I think is doing that, even within 3-4 generations: to use laws and governaments and systems to exterminate, even, why not, billions of people. We just have to not judge things so quickly. I am for that change just cuz I love people there and they were oppressed in that, and to take away the veil I think is something good.

Ph: Angelo Sorte, from Italy @angelosorte

This is the second book that I wrote. After the first one on my testimony, I had something to say about an experience had in a city, and that I so much desired to transmit or try to do it, to the youth. I made some drawings for it and I wanted it to be first of all Beautiful a work of art. It's free on scribd.com or you can order a physical copy on ilmiolibro.it. #SoThankful "I decided to write a second book cuz I had other things to say.

I wanted to tell what I lived while I was in Catania and share some teachings to the young people.

I hope to transmit some values to the youth.

That's the reason why I wrote the book. I wanted to say about this trial that I had. I wanted to tell something more about it."
