This is so encouraging and exactly what I need right now. Tomorrow I leave for a camp in which I am to lead a group of middle school boys for the weekend. We will be flooding them with the gospel with hopes that something sticks and grows. My wife is with Middle school girls so we’ll both need some prayers if y’all don’t mind lol. Specifically for us to let the Holy Spirit lead us into prayers and conversations that hit home with each one of them and that the adult leaders grow in their faith as well. Thank you so much for your leadership Phil.

Thank you for your faithful service. It benefits everyone to mentor these children and adult leaders. May our Lord bless you and your wife, the entire team, each child who attends, those around who are present and those at home with His love, guidance, discernment, wisdom, and boldness. In the King of the Universe's name, Jesus Christ, Amen.

Our steadfast Christian witness at work and play will not go unnoticed by unbelievers. They are watching what we say and asking why we behave differently. Stay strong in Christ.

Me too, Phil. There is nothing like releasing the fruit of the Holy Spirit versus that of the fruit unto death. The self-life is very deceptive in replicating the fruit of God in the mortal mind. However, real fruit, not purchased by the deeds of the flesh, are everlasting. As a film producer, I produced a series on the "Fruit of The Spirit." Check it out: https://youtu.be/2Vl-_uN1EPs

Amen. Living for God is the abundant life. Living for Satan is nothing but death.

"Whatever good in me is not the result of my effort, but the result of God’s Spirit working in me." Good one, Phil. I love this line the most!

Please share my testimony with those who fear the devil, have been deemed lost by men, or are afflicted by demonic influences. There is a horrible deception regarding the power of the devil running rampant today. It is time that the truth of his humiliation and defeat by Jesus Christ is once again proclaimed by his servants. Spiritual warfare is fought by the Holy Spirit, the will of men and their deeds are worthless and hold no value in spiritual battle.
