Walk in Peace In Romans 16:20, we read the following: ‘The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet”. I believe this Scripture will be fully consummated with the return of Jesus. But it also provides us with a valuable key today to overcome the attacks of satan and bring all evil storms

How to Overcome In Matthew 7:24-27, we read the following, “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. “And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet

Not everything is caused by a demon and not every evil situation is directly brought about by the devil. We may be responsible for our own needless

The third type of storms we shall look at are those storms that may not be directly or necessarily caused by God; however, God allows them and we cannot just pray them away. Rather, we have to learn to live victoriously and thrive in the midst of the storm lest we are pulled down and
