Maintaining Your Righteous Stance

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

In these last days, we’ll see unprecedented global changes, but not all of them will be good. Persecution will increase as part of Satan’s targeted attack against believers and against God’s church. The enemy will use shame, guilt, and condemnation as weapons; we’re to respond by standing in our righteousness and in our identity in Christ. No matter what our past looks like or what we’ve done, our faith in Jesus causes God to see us as holy and pure; believing that Jesus has already taken care of our sins by the sacrifice of His body and blood takes us from being sinners to being saints.

How to Find, Follow, and Fulfill the Will of God for Your Life

By Taffi Dollar

Summary

Knowing God’s will for our lives gives us focus and direction, but we don’t find it by accident; we must be intentional and deliberate in discovering this. Making a commitment in our hearts to do this allows Him to begin specifically guiding and directing us; He’ll never let it be a mystery. God wants illumination for us so that we can grasp and comprehend His will. Understanding comes sooner rather than later when we’re sensitive enough to His prompting to respond quickly; yielding ourselves to God allows Him to anoint us with our own unique assignment and calling..

The God of Second Chances

By Taffi Dollar

Summary

In an environment that regularly rejects and disqualifies people, we can be thankful for God’s unconditional love and acceptance; despite our flaws and past mistakes, He’s always ready to give us another chance. Rahab, a prostitute, was an example of this; despite her past, God saved her from destruction and used her mightily. We all have a past, but it doesn’t disqualify us in God’s eyes. Our enemy wants to shame and condemn us because of what we’ve done; however, God is always willing to use us when we trust Him. No matter who we are or what our present circumstances are, having faith in Him allows Him to work through us, redefine us, and elevate us to new levels.

Winning No Matter What

By Taffi Dollar

Summary

For the believer, life can seem like a string of constant battles that weigh us down spiritually; When we begin feeling like that, God provides us the opportunity to start over and begin again. He gives us the supernatural ability to win, regardless of what’s happening in the natural. He wants us to triumph; therefore, our victories are guaranteed. This is illustrated with David ’s victory in the fight against Goliath; like David, we are victorious when we trust in God and refuse to be afraid of others’ opinions. The pain and the temptation to cave in is real; however, our victory in Christ is even more real..

How to Avoid Identity Theft

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

The devil has always been a thief. As believers, we must be on the alert for his attacks; one of the first things he tries to steal that God gave us is who we are in Christ. He did this with Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, and unsuccessfully tried again with Jesus in the wilderness; he tries it with us through guilt, shame, and condemnation. We’ve been redeemed and made righteous and holy, not because of anything we do, but because of what Jesus already did. Confidence in our true identity keeps it from being stolen from us..

Christ: The Preeminent One

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

A relationship with Jesus Christ is the one thing we need more than anything else. We need to know Him personally, not just know about Him. He is the strongest, greatest, and most powerful person in our lives. The Holy Spirit—who Jesus sent to us—acts as His servant to tell us about and show us Christ’s love, mercy, and grace. Jesus wants to attract our hearts; in this capacity, the Holy Spirit works in us to show us the beauty of God’s glory to draw us toward Him and away from worldly things. His will is for us to experience His perfect love firsthand; this allows us to do things that we are incapable of doing through self-effort. Jesus is love in human form; when He dwells in our hearts, supernatural love is also there.
