Preaching, teaching, witnessing, giving your testimony or even being a child of God is not for the faint hearted. It takes guts and backbone to stand up for God, your freedom to worship and preach/teach/witness to others. Jesus didn't say follow me and I'll make your life a peaceful walk through a field of beautiful wild flowers. Jesus said take up your cross and follow me. He said those who do not accept me will not accept you. You spiritually stink to unbelievers. Quit trying to ride the fence and live in both worlds because without the armor of God you will be mowed down by the devil and evil spirits. When you drink or use something that alters your mind you open a gateway for evil spirits to attach themselves to you. When you profess negatives and curses over yourself, your life or your children you give the devil and evil spirits the right to inflict those things which you've said on yourself and your loved ones. Repent for not putting God first. Repent for your words. Live life to it's fullest in God's grace. Only God can fill you with Holy Spirit who teaches, leads and guides you, gives you word of knowledge, speaks through you. Don't make your addictions or your 'easy life' or 'me time ' your God. Stand up for what's right. Be a change maker one day, one moment at a time. Be someone who does what's right in God's eyes.
