“The Lord will guide you always: he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame.  You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.” – Isaiah 58:11 (NIV)

Last month in my column I admonished you to gear up and take your place in the Body of Christ this year—to commit to choosing God’s desires above your desires. I ran out of space, so I want to continue along those lines.

Who’s in Charge? The battle between the Human Spirit and the Intellect.

Timeless TeachingBy Kenneth E. Hagin

One of the greatest mistakes that has been made in our intellectual culture is the ignoring of the human spirit. Instead of allowing our spirit to dominate our intellect, we have allowed our knowledge, or intellect, to dominate our human spirit. In many instances, our intellect has taken the throne, and our human spirit, which should guide us, has been neglected or locked away in prison, so to speak.

When we shut away our spirit and never listen to it, we become crippled in life and easy prey to selfish and designing people. But when we allow our spirit, our human spirit, to gain the mastery and influence us during a crisis, we will climb to the top.

Lynette HaginBy Lynette Hagin

The Day of the Lord is coming soon, and it’s time that we are about our Father’s business. Most of us lead fast-paced lives, and we can become so busy doing natural things that we neglect what God would have us do. Although there are many legitimate things we must do, we don’t want to become so engaged in activities that we miss doing what is truly important.

In my own life, I’ve found that I can be too focused on my agenda. I love checking off the tasks I’ve written on my “to-do” list. And once I get started on a task, I don’t want to be interrupted until I’ve finished it.

Youth Q & AQ&A with Keith Nachbor and Brent Bailey

Q: I know what my pastor and my youth leader say about God. Do I need to have my own relationship with Him?

Brent BaileyBrent: You should never live your life with God through your pastor, your parents, your youth minister, or your friends. You should have your own personal relationship with God. Sadly, a lot of people have a relationship with God through someone else.


Keith NachborKeith: Too many people are not digging things out of the Word of God for themselves. They’re not praying about things and hearing His voice. There’s nothing in their lives that causes them to act upon the Word of God other than what someone else says. Jesus took 12 guys and poured Himself into them, and everything He did was to try to teach them how to have a relationship with the Father.

Stay in the Battle!

 Kenneth W. HaginAll of us like to win first place. But you don’t lose just because you don’t come in first. You lose when you quit.

A lot of Christian men have given up the battle to receive their healing, to live upright lives, to stay faithful to their spouses and families, to follow God’s plan, and to obtain financial stability. How can you stay in the battle to do things God’s way? And if you’ve already quit, how can you get back in the fight?

First Timothy 6:11–12 says, “But thou, O man of God, FLEE these things; and FOLLOW after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. FIGHT the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.” Notice three words: flee, follow, and fight. The success of your Christian life depends upon your learning these three things.
