Have you heard that everyone has the God given right to pursue Happiness? That’s true, isn’t it? Everybody knows that: God wants us to pursue happiness. Well, it turns out everybody is wrong. God never said that, and he doesn’t want that. And if we believe He does, we have been deceived… What God wants […]

We want to see God’s Fruit in our lives. In fact, Jesus tells us that this is the best way to honor Him and bring Glory to God. But what if some of the things we believe are actually keeping the fruit from growing in our lives. Is it possible the enemy has deceived us […]
