A Snare of the Fowler

Produktbeschreibung

Are you bitter?
Is it possible you are and think you're not?
Interesting thing about bitterness is that this snare that satan uses to catch us is practically invisible to us. This is mostly because the snare is set using our own emotions against us. Someone harms me in some way, says something hurtful, does something hateful to me and these may truly have been offences to me. Now I react with anger. This is an honest emotion. I become sad and upset. Again, more honest emotions. Satan sees this happening and begins to stoke those flames of emotion with thoughts of, how could they have done this to me? What kind of person would do such a thing? Why me? And with all of this, left unchecked, your heart becomes bitter. Now you feel you have the right to stay in this state of mind toward those who have offended you and satan is just cheering you on against them knowing that your bitter heart has now made you defiled. God has a much better plan for you knowing that being defiled will separate you from Him. The scriptures tell us that it is good that the heart be established by grace (kindness, favor), not with foods that have not profited those who have been occupied with them. Hebrews 13:9 Let the Lord undue this snare that you have been caught up in and bring true lasting healing to your heart.

Autorenporträt

Mark Pogue was born and raised in Southern California where a life of drugs, alcohol, fornication and fighting brought him to a place of despair and the brink of suicide. He literally, in tears, cried out to the Lord to save him from taking his own life and little did he know, that would also be the day that the Lord would save his soul. He received Jesus as his Lord and Savior that day at the age of 20. Mark knew within the first couple of weeks of being saved he was called to strengthen and encourage the body of Christ. As he walked with the Lord, he had the privilege to serve in many ministries from leading worship to serving as a deacon in a local church. After over twenty years of studying and ministering to the body of Christ Mark received an honorary bachelor's degree in theology from the president of California Christian College. With the blessing of these accomplishments Mark says, none of this means anything without a close relationship with God through Jesus Christ. He goes on to say, all the ministry, degree, and the servanthood do not make a relationship with the Father. All of these things should be a by-product of one who is seeking God the Father with all of his heart. These things should be an out pouring of the desire to know our God better!
