Good Morning Everyone.

I'm posting my new booklet here for people to read and comment... Avoiding The Isolation Trap.

Let me know your thoughts, and thanks!

Blessings,

INTRODUCTION
·         Lookout, my friend; the enemy wants to eliminate you and your testimony by isolating you from others. He’s very successful in this strategy. He tried with me but wasn’t able to capture me in his traps. I want to help you beat him away from you and your family.

CHAPTER ONE

·         You may be thinking that I’m sort of super Christian. I’m probably a lot like you. I was brought up in a small Presbyterian church. I had strong Christian parents. My father was the Sunday School Superintendent and my mother sang in the choir. Later on, she taught the Children’s’ Sunday school. I also had some good Christian church members who helped mentor me, including my first pastor and had good Christian friends. Even with a firm foundation in what I believed, I still fell away from God when I became older and lost both my focus and direction. Even when I wasn’t seeking God, He was seeking me. He put it on the heart of an older gentleman, Deacon Arrington, to call me. God eventually led me back to that church and became a member and I got baptized there. I joined the men’s and inspirational choirs there. I became such a positive member there that I was given a small group of students to influence into becoming stronger members of the church.
·         In fact, that church became the place where I had another powerful encounter with the Holy Spirit on Easter Sunday. I was standing up during worship praising God when I suddenly felt something like honey poured all over me from head to toe. It felt like lightning charged through my entire body. I couldn’t stop shaken and praising God. I stood that way during the rest of the service. It was after that experience I formally met the Holy Spirit and he started speaking to me about my destiny and His purposes for me. He encouraged me to come back to the church and renew my relationship with God, which is exactly what I did. I started a higher calling in my life in God.
·         It’s never too late to start or restart your relationship with God. But that’s only the starting line. You have just begun running the race at that point. If you have never done that, allow me to lead you into a prayer right now.
·         Dear God, lead me into a saving relationship with your son Jesus. Forgive me of my sins. I know that this is just the beginning of my journey, but I need you in my life. I no longer want to rely on my own strength but on your almighty power. Show me a good church home that will help me grow in You. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen!
·         Welcome to the family of God! If you just did this for the first time, feel free to email me at this address arceaser3@yahoo.com

HAVE YOU BEEN POISONED?

How you can tell when you’ve been poisoned . Your actions and attitudes are toxic ! Toxic thoughts lead to toxic actions. Toxic thinking poisons others around us. Eventually toxic thinking leads to death (dreams). Watch out that the toxics around you don’t get inside you . How do you counteract toxicity? Speaking, thinking and acting positive activates life in you, around you, and gives life (energy) to others.

My experience at PODD for Men’s Fellowship

Being at the PODD felt like being at home, but I’m all grown up now . Don’t get me wrong. I loved the praise and worship music team. They really brought us into the presence of God. I loved rejoining with my brothers in Christ. It was good greeting my former pastor and friend. It’s felt good remembering all of the good times, and the not so good times we had there. But I’m not supposed to remain there. Now I belong to a new church, and a new body of believers. Eventually, I had to leave for my new home , and be with my new family .

Dealing with marital differences

I find the more I talk to people, the more they tell me the number one thing that is frustrating them in marriage, they don’t understand their spouse . Men don’t understand women, women don’t understand men. Being around women most of the time has given me some insight on how they think, how they feel, and how they react to situations. Guess what guys? God made them different from us. But thank God, He gives us the blueprint to help us, the Bible. My suggestion is this: Whenever you feel really frustrated or anxious about your wife’s behavior and her attitude, take your Bible and go into your prayer closet. Pray this prayer, “Father God, please change ME to deal with my wife in a way that honors you”. Right now, I probably lost 99% of you with that prayer. I know you would rather be like James and John and ask the Lord to rain down fire on your wife’s head. Maybe then she would submit herself to your leadership. But trust me on this. If you are truly seeking God’s will for your life, y...
