Maybe the devil has succeeded in getting you to start to criticize and waste ammunition on another church, or another denomination, or another Christian movement, or an organization, or on a brother or sister in Christ. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-relationships/controlled-avalanches-6453 2011-10-07T11:17:54-05:00 Deal with it while it's still able to be dealt with. Daily corrections are God's avalanche cannon. Get at the issue now. Don't wait until it comes crashing down on you. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hindrances/seeing-what-your-opponent-sees-6431 2011-09-06T09:48:24-05:00 Find the scriptures that deal with that weakness as Jesus did, and be ready to quote the Word of God. Treat your weak areas with generous applications of the memorized Word of God. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/wired-for-worship-6425 2011-08-26T11:00:11-05:00 Let me recommend that we begin our day getting overwhelmed by Jesus Christ; focusing all of our worship-ness, our fan mail so to speak, on Him. Evaluate...maybe are you a little too excited about some earthly star? See, you're wired for worship, but save it for the only One who deserves it. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/the-deadliest-day-in-the-world-6176 2010-09-13T11:26:26-05:00 Our sins have earned us the eternal death penalty the Bible calls hell. A hell which could be cancelled only one way. It took the Son of God Himself taking your hell; taking your punishment for you. You did the sinning, but Jesus did the dying. When a rescuer extends his hand to you in a burning or collapsed building, you don't wait to grab it. Your chance to live is now. http://delveintojesus.com/Articles/84/Why-Did-God-Create-Satan.aspx 2010-01-20T17:48:07-05:00 God created all things in the beginning, including Satan. Why would God deliberately create something so evil and powerful? http://gospel.com/blog/index.php/2009/11/20/does-belief-in-god-necessitate-belief-in-demons/ 2009-11-25T14:12:16-05:00 What role do you think demonic forces play in our world? Do you believe that Satan has a hand in everything, is mainly an impotent being, or doesn’t even exist? http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/shaking-the-snake-that-stalks-you-5952 2009-11-03T09:08:34-05:00 The next time the serpent comes your way, the Bible says, "Resist him." "I know who this is. I'm not falling for this again!" That's how you stand up to him. You claim the victory that Jesus Christ won over Satan when He died on the cross. Take your stand! Go to your Savior and unleash Jesus on that serpent. No compromise. No giving in. No accommodation. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Peter%205:8-9&version=NIV 2009-10-05T16:50:15-05:00 The devil is depicted here as a prowling lion--quietly lurking and waiting to pounce when it spots weak prey. But his attacks can be resisted simply by standing firm in the faith, and remembering that we're not alone in being targeted by his wiles. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-mission/a-rattle-but-no-bite-2571 2009-10-02T11:09:56-05:00 You've been frightened and held back long enough by the rattle of a snake whose head is crushed. He has no bite - just a lot of noise! So, resist the devil, and he will flee from you!
