Have you ever judged, or have you ever felt that people have judged you? People judge others based on false understandings, false information, and by false truths.

When we know what we should do, and want to do the right thing and then we flip and find ourselves doing the opposite of what we know is right; that behavior is unstable and double minded. Doing the opposite of what we know we should do is allowing ourselves to be tempted. Become someone that can be trusted; someone that is stable in all ways!…

What does Vanity make you think of? Perhaps someone who is obsessed with how they look. With vanity you will find excessive pride in, or admiration of one’s own appearance or achievements. You become consumed in something, anything, other than loving the Lord. Have you ever reflected on why Jesus Christ often referenced becoming as a little child? …

Have you ever considered the impact of the phrase: “If you don't have something nice to say then don’t say it at all.” When did swearing and cutting people down become okay in society?

Whoever is unrighteous will rule by an unrighteous hand. This could be a spouse, an employer, or others. Little children know when their “free agency” is being trampled by another who wants to be in charge and as adults we know this too, and we don’t like it when someone is trying to control us. Unrighteous dominion includes acting harshly towards …

What if someone came and told you that all your debt was paid in full, what would you do? You’d probably shout for joy and be so excited. What if I told you this did happen to you, and you did shout for joy? You would probably say, when, and how? Jesus Christ’s atonement made it possible for us to return to the presence of God. However, Lucifer wan…

Most people associate being poor with a lack of money. Did you also realize, you could also be poor spiritually in belief, mentally in understanding, and even emotionally poor. If you’re not trying to progress, you are poor. How do you become “not poor”? First = understand Second = movement (or move) As the scripture says, “faith without works is d…

What is endurance. And why does the term suffering accompany the word endurance? We hear the term endurance used often in many analogies especially sports. Endurance is the capacity of something to last or withstand wear and tear. When you replace the word "something" with "atonement", then endurance is the capacity of the atonement to last or to w…

Traditions, traditions, without our traditions our lives would be as shaky as a fiddler on a roof.” Isn’t that imagery spectacular? Do you feel grounded with your traditions or not? A tradition may be false, foolish, or follow a father’s traditions. They may cause you to stop in place with no movement forward; you literally become chained to them. …

This is both a spot and an understanding. It is a spot because money can be taken and used for the gratification and pleasure of man. Do you have a love of money and a mentality of getting rich, as in rich in the standard of the world. Or, are you seeking to get rich in God? There is a difference. Have you laid up in store for God or for yourself?…

Have you ever thought that there could be a sin of omission, or a sin for doing nothing? Omission means left out, omitted or excluded. If you feel “stuck” where you are in your life; if things don’t seem to change in your life; if you are not trying to progress, then identify things in your life you need to clean out and move forward on. Or else yo…

It is easy to see how this is a spot. The very definition tells us of someone who says flattering things that may be intended to deceive or to get gain above another whether mentally, emotionally, spiritually or physically. This is the avowed purpose of the father of all lies, to deceive. In fact, as with all spots, this is the purpose of the adver…

There is a certain allure about going out and having fun. Remember the scripture found in 1 Peter 5:8: Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour. And devour he does; mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. He doesn’t hold back and he doesn’t care about the carnag…

Disease and sickness are constant and everywhere in this world. It is a part of our mortality. Any form of suffering never comes of God, be it mental, emotional, spiritual or physical. Sickness and affliction come from being spotted, and these spots come from opposition which lead directly back to Satan. Removal of these varied spots will help us b…

Immoral acts are when a person makes no attempt to curb self-indulgence or when a person purposefully or willingly desecrates God. Immoral behavior will separate you from God. So, if what you are doing is not right, do not do it. If it is not true, do not say it. Immorality is when you turn to the world and not to God when you know he lives.…

Remember, if you stop moving forward and closer to God, or if you neglect any part of yourself, you are actually neglecting God and yourself. Cast off the Spot of neglect by starting your day with Jesus Christ. Start with prayer; open the scriptures and read, if only a few verses Keep Jesus Christ centered in your life. And when you do these things…

Guile isn’t a word you hear much anymore. Do you even know what it means? It is insidious, or cunning in attaining a goal; crafty or artful deception. Who does this sound like to you? It is the adversary. The adversary’s purpose is to take from you your free agency. Don’t let yourself be found trying to take from others their free agency through th…

When God created men and women, he did this so they could be "help-meets" to each other; to equally carry each other’s burdens so that they may be light. Have you ever heard the term “equally yoked”? Like two oxen yoked together, the combined strength of both give them the power to manage the difficult tasks, which if tried alone, they would not su…

Have you ever engaged in idle talk about the affairs of others, revealing personal or sensational thoughts about another; quite possibly discussing details you’ve not confirmed? Gossip is 99% truth and 1% false. The problem is that you end up holding onto the 1% false and don’t behold the 99% truth. Don’t let the adversary fool you into holding ont…

There is a higher and lower understanding of fighting. The lower understanding is that of wanting to hurt someone. The higher understanding takes you above the desire to hurt or abuse others and leads you to ask, how can I understand another. You are not fighting the adversary, but God is. God will never leave us, but it is us who leave him. The wa…

If you are feeding your flesh in any way, then that is not of God. When you do, you place yourself under the power of the adversary or Satan. If you don’t repent and remove your spots, then you are building walls around you which will ultimately become your own prison, to which you will become bound to, one brick at a time. Jesus Christ prepared th…

Temptation defined Biblically is a situation in which one experiences a challenge to choose between fidelity and infidelity to one’s obligations toward God. God does not tempt us, but the adversary does - mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. We need to conquer temptation first mentally, before we can conquer the others, or we will sli…

There is a great example of idolatry in the Old Testament. Do you remember the story of the golden calf which was worshiped by the children of Israel while they were waiting for Moses to come down from Mt. Sinai with the Ten Commandments. While Moses was receiving the commandments, the Israelites were “breaking” a commandment by worshipping a golde…

If this is one of your spots, if you have put too much emphasis on appearance and fashion, or no emphasis at all, consider the second great commandment to love thy neighbor as you love yourself. Stop the behavior of spending so much time, money and effort on yourself. Also, let others alone with your judging and criticisms. For these things are not…

If you are trying to get gain in any sort of way over anyone, it is not of God. The declaration of independence states; “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." You don’t use peop…

Being doubleminded is serving two masters. This occurs when you don’t know who you are or who you want to follow. This indecision allows evil spirits to enter in. No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and Mammon (Matthew 6:24). Dec…
