When...

When fatigue and discouragement seek to destroy your faith,

When the pain of your soul is unbearable because of unrequited love,

When the voices of guilt increases,

When words can´t help you and you feel overwhelmed by loneliness,

When doubts bring death threats and fear persists

When worries keep you from sleeping

When friends disappear and the enemies are increasing,

When the avalanche of accusations and criticisms arise

When a wound is reopened in the past in the present

When despair takes hold of you and seems to be the end

When the doors are closed and no light at the end of the tunnel

When all seems lost, and even your prayers sound like empty words thrown into the air,

When there is no hope for anyone else in this world

The Altar is the place.

The sacrifice of God is the Middle.

The Holy Spirit is the answer.

That nothing prevents

Throughout the Bible we have records showing various sacrifices to God for his people.
Thus in the past and is similar in the present day. The sacrifice appears as the condition imposed by God to bless someone, because only the sacrifice embodies the faith.
But not all people understand this.
In 1 Corinthians 2:14, the apostle Paul said, "the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he can not understand (...)"
Hence many see as folly to strive to attract the attention of God, because they try to rationalize it, instead of continuing education and understand God through faith.
Pedro was the case, then when Jesus said he would give his life for us, try to avoid Peter. The words of doubt and fear that the apostle utter, were inspired by Satan, Jesus Christ himself said (see Matthew 16:21-28)
Evil knows who is working with faith, receive God's blessing, so try to avoid it.


"He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be their God, and he shall be my son"

Revelation 21:7

The same price

It is a business, not a game, much less a trade. This is the realization of a living faith in the living God.
If we see the miracles experienced by the heroes of the faith of the past, at least pay the same price we paid for them.
How much? Renounced their own will to follow the impulses of faith that led to the fulfillment of God's promises of blessings.
Joshua and Caleb were delighted to see the Promised Land. The sinister vision of its inhabitants giants do not remove the conviction of victory, on the contrary.
Other partners in the mission, despite also being amazed by seeing two men carrying a huge bunch of grapes, size, wealth of the land, plus the difficulties felt blessings, for they were dismayed to see such a huge population.
But God is God, His Word can not fail. Whoever believes does not flee, because of that employs all his strength because he knows what the outcome of using faith.
Faith gives courage and fighting spirit to act to achieve the desired objective. The size of the faith as measured by the effort expended in an attitude, that is, faith is measured by sacrifice. If there is sacrifice, then there is faith.
That pleases God.
In fact, everyone can participate in the sacrificial faith, rich and poor, because each has its greatest.
The bigger the dream, the greater will be the sacrifice. If that is true with regard to the conquest of material goods and time, consider in relation to eternal things.


"No one is saved driven by feelings. Salvation requires attitude, action or realization of faith. That is value! "

With this power, what is impossible?

Across the globe, it is obvious hunger for power that many individuals have. Aspire to be invincible, successful, admirable. Well, did you know that Christ promised to give us power?
That power is the Holy Spirit and surpasses any other that may be granted in this world. For shows, just look what he did with the apostles of Jesus. Before receiving the Spirit of God within him, the apostles were men cowardly, aggressive, impulsive ... However, once the power came over them, they became brave, confident, fearless, invincible. The book of Acts reveals that Power acting in such men, for example, in Chapter 4, verse 13 says, "they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained, are marveled, and they realized that they had been with Jesus. "And later, in the view-Sicilian 31, it mentions how the strengthened this power and gave the conditions to continue their struggle:" When they had prayed, the place where they were gathered shook, and all were filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly. "
With your faith, you can get many blessings, but does not fit inside the Holy Spirit, when adverse situations arise not have the strength and wisdom to resolve them, and, like most, you become desperate and even complain to God. The apostles were men studied, were not privileged or special, but to have within them the Spirit of God, were imposed on all the persecutions, slanders and attacks against him arose.
Maybe you despise him, he categorized as a failure or not satisfied to be like, but think: If the power that the apostles came into possession of his being, is there anything or anyone capable of preventing it from realizing what you want? what or who can destroy him if God dwells within you?
The Holy Spirit longs to look after him, make him happy and lead to the realization of their dreams. The decision to accept or reject that power is yours.



"But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit upon you (...)"
Acts 1:8

Injustices of life ...

Things by halves do not enjoy. Now imagine if we talk about having a half-life, turns out to be much worse. Yes, living half is due to diseases that impede normal development. Half-life because of the tensions at home, whether caused by a shortage of money to meet daily needs, or a deteriorating living for the offenses and abuse, addictions, infidelity. Half-life for long has been dragging a large, heavy list of heartbreak, which has pervaded the heart of fear and sadness. In short, half-live for putting things in balance, outweigh the bitter that the rewards.

The Bible tells a man named Job experienced something worse than living halfway, because despite being an exemplary individual in the eyes of God, a moment's lost everything: their health, wealth and even their children.
At first glance, this unfortunately was beyond repair and in any case would take long enough for the damages were repaired. However, the faith that this man wore on his chest from long ago led him to plead their cause before the Being in whom he believed: "Job answered and said," Today we also speak with bitterness because my wound is more serious than my groan. Who give me know where to find God! I would go to his chair. Expose my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments. "(Job 23:1-4)
Result? God answered Job making it not only recovered his health, it also helped him to have more children and take many more wealth than before.
Job's case was recorded in Scripture is not to fill a space, not because I pretend to be a fun story to 'kill time'. Through this, God wants you to know that he can turn to for help when you need it.
He openly shows his desire to reach out when he says: "... trust Me in your times of trouble I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me." (Psalm 50:15)
Do you need this help? Why not do the same Job?
If you seek the Lord with faith and exposes its problems, he can help remedy the circumstances that now afflict it.
My desire is that God has changed countless lives and no doubt, wants and can change yours. The only requirement is to take hold of their faith
God says, "... because my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed." (Isaiah 56:1)

"For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."

Matthew 23:12

Ask to find.

"Why ask if you know what I need?", "search if you know what I found?", "why play if you know that I stand strong on the door?"
It's true .... As the omniscient God knows all things, nothing, absolutely nothing is hidden from His eyes. The past, present and future are like a photograph in his hands.
But why should I try so hard: ask, seek, play, fight, persevere, to insist, in order to sacrifice to take possession of my rights in Christ Jesus, promised in the Bible?
In fact, between wanting and performing there is a vast desert to go. Only the brave and determined able to overcome it. Timid, cowardly, fearful they stay in the middle of the road.
How to know who is worthy or not to take possession?
Faith. Faith puts the light side, the sheep, the strong, brave, bold, determined, finally, those who believe and put into practice God's thoughts. And unbelievers, kids, timid and fearful are buried in the desert.
Individual faith is he who judges and decides who is worthy or not to take possession of the Promises. Everyone has faith. The problem is that not everyone has had the courage to obey God's voice. As money is a currency in a commercial transaction, and it was faith in the relationship with God.
There is no way to achieve the benefits of faith if you use the faith.
Without the practice of it, that is, without obedience to the Word of God is impossible to please.
It is impossible to earn His favor.


"God is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer"
2 Samuel 22:2

"I'm not worthy!"

How many times have you said "I am not worthy of God's favor?.
Possibly infinite number of times you felt a person who does not deserve the divine promises. Although it sounds cliché, I know something: you are what you think.
That is, it is you who has that idea, because in truth, the Scriptures reveal that God is totally different from what they imagine. He really wants to bless you.
If God gave blessings on merit, no one would definitely, without exception, because all sinned.
So how do you His promises are a reality in our lives?
Using faith, you are worthy of the promises of God by faith: "Therefore, it is by faith, that is by grace, so that the promise will be guaranteed to all his descendants, not only for the law is But also for those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all. "(Romans 4:16)
Do not think you are not entitled to receive blessings from the Lord, or that failed to have His help in fulfilling their dreams. If you follow their mandates and believes in the sacrifice He made ​​on the cross and is definitely heir of his wealth. Open yourself to the possibility of winning than they ever imagined.



God cares for those who belong. Always remember that!

Internet friends, our Lord did not abandon us!
We only enjoy great blessings here and reach the Kingdom of God who put aside timidity, cowardice, act, sacrifice, pursue their goals and obey in faith to God.
However, God has allowed us to go through tribulations, anxieties and periods without receiving their responses .... Why? No ...
On the one hand to exercise our faith and trust. However one thing I'm sure: "All things work together for good to those who love God." (Romans 8:28).
Do you really love?
So do not be afraid, believe, stay safe and unshaken. Do not be misled by doubts arising in his heart.

And his success ... How big are they?

The Bible reveals: "With God all things are possible" (Matthew 19:26).
So, why if he can do absolutely anything, some people do not see a result?
For God to act is needed is an important element: FE.
The Scriptures emphasize when they say: "But without faith it is impossible to please God, because it is necessary that cometh to God must believe that He exists and rewards those who seek Him" (Hebrews 11:6).
Everything you can imagine, incredible as it may seem, God can do. Moreover, he wants you to see come true. However, it is up to you to expand your vision, be open to the enormous potential and believe he can provide that.
He not only wants to give peace, want you to have the best, not lacking in any sense, but it is important to know that their harvest will always be the size of your faith.
If you believe in a God who only does small things that will result.
Otherwise, ie if you trust God or capable of great feats, you get extraordinary results.
God's power knows no bounds.
Prepare to meet your power, believe it capable of being who has always dreamed of.

The most serious thing is not falling, but remain in the soil.

Fe asleep

Nothing makes the devil happy to do as believers fanatizan with the Bible. That is, when no longer interested in practicing what is written, your pleasure is wonderful to hear or read messages and know more and more ...
Thus, it can boast more than others.
The purpose of the disclosures in the Bible is not memorize or cause a feeling of wellbeing, but to prepare people for war against evil. Therefore, if they are not implemented, what is the gain?
Just as our muscles need exercise to stay strong, our faith needs to be exercised to make our dreams come true.
Exercising faith is to obey the Word of God.
Obviously, reading the Bible is an excellent food for our spirit, but if you do not practice what they read, end up falling into hypocrisy. The lessons would have no meaning.
The scribes, for example, incurred in the foregoing. They knew the Law, the Commandments and predictions better than anyone, since they were officially in charge of transcribing the Scriptures.
However, Jesus called them hypocrites, blind guides, serpents and brood of vipers,
He revealed they would be judged by God as to say: "What escapes the damnation of hell" (Matthew 23:1-35).
How many people will be spiritually numbed due to his extensive knowledge of the Bible?
People who are anxious to know, but falters in the practice of God's thoughts.
Do you know why?
Because they hate the idea of ​​sacrifice. Even like to read about the sacrifice it costs them nothing, but in practice I detest.
The devil knows that faith has no power when idle. That is the reason why many are called but few are chosen.


The size of the faith, is measured by the effort of attitude, bone, faith is measured by sacrifice.
