July 22, 2019 Randolph Jason

8 Ways to Obliterate the Effect of Jezebel’s Words by KATHY DEGRAW for Charisma News There is power in the words we speak, both positive and negative. The spiritual realm is waiting to act on what is said. “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit” (Prov. 18:21). We’ve all had people gossip, slander and speak against us. I remember praying one time, and the Lord instructed me to pray against word curses people had spoken over my life.…

The churches, community organizations and people helping people was the norm. It was a hand up not a hand out. When I was born my parents were living in what is known today as Section 8 housing – government subsidized. My dad was a fireman and my mom worked part time at the hospital. We, my parents and older brother, moved into a cracker-box…

I Was Aborted at 8 Months and Left in a Bin to Die by MELISSA OHDEN for Life News Growing up, my elder sister Tammy and I fought like many siblings do. It was during one of these childish rows when I was 14 that she blurted out, “At least my parents wanted me!”’ I was numb with shock.

July 19, 2019 Randolph Jason

GOD GRANTS US STRENGTH TO STAND IN OUR WEAKNESS by Simonetta Carr for Core Christianity One of my favorite movies as a child was Bambi. One scene impressed me more than anything: after Bambi’s mother dies in a forest fire, a strong, majestic figure emerges from the flames. It’s Bambi’s father. He has been mostly absent, but returns to save his son. And he does so by commanding him to leave his mother’s side: “Get up, Bambi!” The command might seem harsh – even insensitive – to modern ears, but…
