Dominion
By Pastor Craig Hays

As Believers, we are born of the Spirit of God when we are born-again. How can a person who is born of God and has God’s Spirit dwelling be defeated?  Now we see it around us all the time, but there has to be some reasoning here. 

I’m not taking away from the fact that the enemy is going to attack. Satan’s job is to attack; your job is to resist—not to come in and get lined up with the things he wants to do. Satan has a program and God has a program, but God laid His program out.   Satan’s program fluctuates—it blows with the wind.  That’s why there’s never any consistency to it.  But God’s Word is very consistent.  It’s very orderly.

As Christians, somewhere we’re missing it because we’ve got too many ups and downs—too many highs and to lows.  A Christian’s life should be on an incline—that means starting from one point and climbing.   It’s never too late to start taking your rightful place in Christ, but the thing is so many people wait until they are bombarded and overwhelmed with life’s problems.  I’m not saying we shouldn’t be there to help our brothers and sisters, because we should.  But what I am saying is: when are we as people of God going to understand who we are?  When are we going to take hold of this Word and live it?

A certified counselor will give you a swab test and within 20 minutes you will know your HIV test results with 99% accuracy. We will provide three Mobil testing Units for your convenience.

Join us for Sunday Night Live in conjunction with Women Who Care, on June 13th at 6PM in the Main Auditorium. Our guest speaker will be author Kimberla Lawson Roby.
