I ALMOST Lost my Mind

Dec 1, 2024    Bishop Keith A. Kershaw

Satan has limited powers. Satan is a little god, a fallen angel. We must remember that God does not treat us as robots. God gives us choices. We mimic the voices we hear.


We were created for more than a figurative plan. Eternity we will not need these bodies. Sin brought death. Sin means separation. We have limited life on this plain and eternal life on another plain. He who influences the mind influences the body. Guard your mind. We cannot allow ourselves to be a party or subject. Satan wants to distort your reality. Once Satan can get you to respond with your emotions, you will not respond by faith. You have to talk to yourself. An open-minded person is always open to new revelations. If you ever want to get someone’s attention, you would lower your voice.


When you lower your voice, it causes you to lean in to hear what the person is saying to you. My mind is important. I am who God says I am. Satan is the father of lies. He wants you to believe the lies. Satan’s only trip is deception. Satan used deception to get a 1/3 of the angel to leave heaven. You need a basis of your faith. You need faith in the word of God. Your word life, prayer life, and your relationships with the saints is what you need to stay crucial to your faith. You are going to need the word of God to combat against Satan. When you start asking questions and not making the declaration of your faith, Satan will use deception to pull you from God. Satan waits until you are at the bottom of your issue and then attacks.


When God’s word is put in you, the word of God can come out of you. If you are going to complain, have a but in your testimony. You need to have a conclusion of God and not your circumstances. In Lamentation, Jeremiah witnessed the mercy of God.


You cannot sit in your situation or your situation will start to sit in your mind. That is why Jeremiah had to change his situation. That is why some people cannot get into the service; they have their minds in the wrong mindset. I got to get my mind right and recall what God has done. The way I went in is not the way I will get out.
