"February 6, 2019"      Prompt: "My friends do not believe every spirit, but test the spirit to see whether they are from God..." I John 4: 1.What does it mean to test the spirits? I believe John was referring to watching and listening closely to what was said and seeing if it lined up with the word of God. All too often the message preached does not come from God. If it is godly it will line up with the word of God. We must be critical of all messages we hear to determine whether they line up with the word. This means we must have intimate knowledge of the word.

I have a screwed up computer in my brain. I add two plus two and get six. I have to depend on God to lead me because I cannot depend on my own thoughts.

He gets me safely through. ** Image ID #1971173 Unavailable ** "Prompt: "On the TV Show "Heartland", the family members each have a brick in the fireplace that is theirs.
