Dear Impact Prayer Team



We all want to make wise choices. However, many Christians mistakenly use personal preferences when making a decision or allow fear to paralyze them from moving forward in faith. However, Scripture provides the principles that should guide us.

You first have to decide whether you’re going to live for yourself or for the kingdom of Jesus Christ. Are you willing to let your life bear witness to who He is? Your answer determines how you make decisions.

Once you obey God’s leading, leave all the consequences to Him. Remember, you’re a threat to the Enemy when you live beyond yourself, so expect conflict. Don’t let it undermine choices you know the Lord led you to make. Instead, choose to face adversity as Jesus did—by drawing on the courage of the Holy Spirit. Trust Him and willingly embrace everything He allows into your life, whether that involves suffering or blessings.

Believe in the greatness of His love today, and rest in the wisdom of His guidance.

Yet, strangely, more often than not, intense persecution of Christians leads to a spurt of growth in the church. An ancient saying expresses this phenomenon: "The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church." The First Big Advance For a while, the new faith enjoyed popular favor. But very soon it involved grave risk. In the book of Acts, the persecution that produced the first Christian martyr, St...

Recompensas celestiales

Leer | LUCAS 14.12-14 22 de junio de 2012 Los niños no son los únicos a quienes les gusta ser recompensados. Nuestro Creador sabe que también los adultos son motivados por los incentivos. Es por eso que encontramos promesas en su Palabra para quienes andan en sus caminos. Algunos de estos beneficios están al alcance en este mundo --como son el sentimiento de realización, el gozo y el favor de otros--, mientras que otras bendiciones se concederán en el cielo. Como creyentes, no tenemos que temer al juicio (Ro 8.1); estamos vestidos con salvación por la sangre de Jesús, y no enfrentaremos la ira divina. Pero el Señor determinará el valor de nuestras obras, y qué recompensa merecemos. Para ayudarnos a entender esto, la Biblia habla de cuatro coronas. La primera, llamada incorruptible , es dada a aquellos cuyo deseo es andar en obediencia delante de Dios. En medio de luchas e incluso de fracasos, siguen muriendo a la carne y obedeciendo al Espíritu. La segunda, la corona de...
