People would always come to me with all sorts of requests, and I just about always said yes regardless if it meant increasing the workload for myself.

There's a war going on in my mind... missiles launching and weapons of mass destruction sent to take me out. That's what an attack from the enemy can look like and he doesn't fight fair. He will broadcast deceit and lies in your mind that are pretty crafty and believable-- his very mission is to disturb your peace. If he can take over your mind, the devil has won the fight. The good news is that the battle waged on our minds by the enemy was already won-- we just have to remember to use our secret weapon!

Many Christians get entangled with the idea of medication vs God's healing power-- what did God intend for us? As we search the word regarding Christians and medicine we find the following scriptures to list a few: Jeremiah 51:8 (NIV): Babylon will suddenly fall and be broken. Wail over her!
