JUST ONE MORE {GIVEAWAY}

Addiction is something many of us won't understand unless it touches us in some way. We often think, just stop. Just quit doing it. Think of your family. Think of what you're doing. Just quit! But it isn't that easy. Addiction is a disease that needs real help. Addiction is a battle that needs Jesus.

Addicts aren't thinking of the future or loved ones. The disease binds them and has them only thinking of just one more. One more fix. One more high. One more drink. One more time. And our enemy loves every second of it. He loves watching the battle that rages within. He loves watching an addict slide into this out of mind state. He loves watching the loved ones sit back in anguish as they feel lost as to how to help.

In the new Angel Guild movie, Just One More, we watch as Jess battles an opioid addiction. We see her withdraws and her pain. We see her grow and fall. And we see her come across a dying man whose deepest desire is to see just one more come to Jesus before he passes away.

Charles positions himself outside of his home day after day with one intent: pray for anyone willing to let him. At first Jess doesn't want his prayers, but slowly she opens up to the idea of Jesus. But that doesn't mean her addiction immediately fades away.

Just One More is a beautiful movie. I love how it shows the dark side of addiction that so many don't understand, but how it also shows the power of prayer, community, and love. I highly recommend this movie. You can stream Just One More now on Angel and support stories that actually inspire. To watch Just One More, click HERE.

CORD OF THREE STRANDS | PART 1

Has your marriage been hard lately? Does if feel like you and your husband are being attacked on every end? Do you wonder if the two of you are even going to make it? Friend, marriage is hard period, but the enemy is after your marriage. The enemy is working double time to attack marriages, especially Christian marriages.

When we enter into marriage, there are three parts: you, your husband, and God. As you marry, these three parts become closely braided together. But when marriage gets hard, we have to pause and ask ourselves one very important question; has the third strand been pulled out?

And if someone overpowers one

person, two can resist him. A cord

of three strands is not easily broken.

Ecclesiastes 4:12 CSB

OUR PART, THEN HIS

 And My people, who bear My

name, humble themselves, pray

and seek My face, and turn from

their evil ways, then I will hear

from heaven, forgive their sin

and heal their land.

2 Chronicles 7:14 CSB

God gives us clear direction in 2 Chronicles 7:14. He tells us that we have some actions steps to take before He does His part.

We must:

After we do those things, then He will:
