We continue the journey with the talks of Spiritual Warfare. This time our foot steps need to have positions because we are in the Frontlines. Many times what we think are the right steps and directions to chase turn out to be not God but what we think they should be. Our Sword and Shield steps matter. We need to be careful, the false teachings, movements, and ideologies become our step over Scripture.Bible Verses: 1 John 4:1-3; Colossians 2:6-11; Acts 13:4-12; Acts 19:13-16; Philippians 1:27-30----------------------------------------------------------------Top 20 list at Feedspot: ⁠⁠https://podcast.feedspot.com/christian_men_podcasts/⁠⁠E: warriorwithin.christianmanhood@gmail.com|TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pastorwarriorwithinMerch Store: https://wwcm-podcast.printify.me/productsPayPal DONATIONS: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=KC3DTP8HM7DAEYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WarriorWithinMinistriesStudios-----------------------------------------------------Affiliated with Talitha Coffee: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://talitha.com/pastordido⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-----------------------------------------------------Track: Jim Yosef - Samurai [NCS Release] Music provided by NoCopyrightSounds.Watch:Free Download / Stream:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://NCS.io/Samurai⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Matthew 6:25 - “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?” (NKJV) 1. Bring your worries to God in prayer. Philippians 4:6 - Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. ( NLT) 2. Trade your worry for worship. Philippians 4:6-7 - Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. (NLT) 3. Focus your mind on the pure and positive things. Philippians 4:8 - And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. (NLT) Proverbs 4:23 - Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. (NIV) Romans 12:2 – Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. (NLT) Colossians 3:1-3 - Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.  (NIV) Isaiah 26:3 - You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! (NLT)

Today is day 279 and we are studying The Second Commandment. 279. Are idols always images? No. Anything can become an idol if I look to it for salvation from my sin or comfort amid my circumstances. If I place my ultimate hope in anything but God, it is an idol.

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/union-with-christHey New Song Church! Grab your Bible and turn to Romans 6.We're in Looking Unto Jesus, a series chasing one thing: Real change for real sinners — not polish, not performance, but transformation that reaches desire and identity. Today we're going straight to the source of that change: Union with Christ.Big Idea: You're not just forgiven by Christ — you are united to Christ. What's true of Him now defines you. His death counts as your death. His resurrection fuels your life.In this message you'll learn:• Why the Bible's most repeated identity is “in Christ” — and why that changes everything.• How Romans 5–6 moves you from in Adam (sin/death) to in Christ (righteousness/life).• The four approaches to growth — God then me / God not me / God plus me / God in me — and why only one actually transforms.• What “abiding” really means (John 15): grafted into Jesus so His life produces His fruit in you.• Why union makes you secure (Romans 8), blessed (Ephesians 1), and transformed (Galatians 2:20) — and why the greatest gift of the gospel is Christ Himself.Key Texts: Romans 6:3–5; Romans 5:12,19; 1 Corinthians 15:22; 2 Corinthians 5:21; John 15:4–5; Philippians 2:12–13; Colossians 1:29; 1 Corinthians 6:17; John 10:28–29; Colossians 3:3; Ephesians 1:3; Romans 8:1,38–39; Galatians 2:20Sticky lines to take with you:• “We were all born in Adam — we must be reborn in Christ.”• “This isn't God plus me — it's God in me.”• “Union isn't fragile; it's Spirit-forged.”• “The reward of union isn't just what Jesus gives — it's Jesus.”Next steps:• If you're burned out on “God then me,” come home to God in me.• If you've been passive, abide — take the step He already called you to.• If shame's been loud, hear the gentle Jesus: “I haven't let go.”

In this powerful episode, Tina Chambers Smith unpacks the identity crisis facing both the world and the church—and how reclaiming our identity in Christ brings freedom, clarity, and spiritual confidence. Drawing from Scripture and personal insight, Tina explores what it means to be fully accepted by God, spiritually alive in Christ, and part of His family.You'll learn:Why rejection wounds us—and how God's acceptance healsWhat Scripture says about being a child of God, a redeemed saint, and a member of Christ's bodyHow to talk to your children about spiritual identity and belongingFive practical tips to step up your spiritual parenting this weekPlus, hear about the upcoming Rest Refresh Renew Retreat (October 24–26) and how you can join a community of women learning to stand firm in faith.

Today we're kicking off a brand-new series in Colossians called Christ Alone. Life is loud, and it's easy to get pulled in a thousand directions—but this series points us back to what truly anchors us: Jesus. Not Jesus plus achievements or approval—just Christ alone.Support the show

This is Week 5 of our series Circles, where we're learning how God's Word guides us in strengthening the relational circles in our lives. This series isn't just about building better relationships—it's about divine realignments. God is repositioning some of us for greater impact and deeper joy, helping us step into His chosen connections that will change our life's course.Last week, we explored our inner circle and our relationship with God—the foundation of everything. Today, we dive into the outer circle—the people outside our immediate circle, those who feel different or even uncomfortable to us. These are our neighbors, co-workers, people at the store, even those we might ignore or block on social media. The question is: how do we relate to them?Our key verse is Colossians 4:5-6:"Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone."Why do outsiders matter?Because they matter to God. They are loved by Him, and many are in our lives for a reason. Just like the early Christians in Colossae—who faced hostility, rejection, and persecution—they refused to retreat or water down their faith. Instead, they made a difference by living intentionally and boldly.In a culture filled with division and deception, they stood firm, refusing to compromise. They knew Christ and carried His presence into the outside world, fulfilling the Great Commission: "Go and preach the Gospel to all nations." Their lives weren't just about getting by—they were about making an impact.Our faith was never meant to be hidden. Remember, light doesn't need permission to shine—darkness cannot overcome it. The resistance you encounter may be a sign that you're on the right track.Loving the outsiders means being wise in our manner, our moment, and our message:Wisdom in our manner:Mind your words — be gracious, kind, and respectful. Jesus said, "Let your words always be full of grace and seasoned with salt." Our words should preserve, heal, and attract others to Christ, not offend or push away. We're called to be witty, engaging, and loving—never abrasive or rude.Wisdom in our moment:Seize divine appointments. Be proactive in noticing opportunities God puts in your path. Whether it's a new neighbor, a co-worker, or a cashier at the store—these moments are orchestrated by God for meaningful connections. Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit's lead and respond in faith.Wisdom in our message:Always be ready to share the hope you have. Your story, your church, your faith—these can be powerful bridges. Share the Gospel confidently, using words that are honest, compassionate, and truthful. Remember, our goal is to win hearts, not arguments.Love and truth go hand in hand. Grace without truth is meaningless. Truth without grace is harsh. Together, they bring healing and transformation.Ask yourself:Are my actions and words drawing people closer to Jesus, or pushing them away?Be intentional. Be wise. Make the most of every divine opportunity.Because, ultimately, guiding others to Christ is the heartbeat of our faith. Let's step out boldly, shining His light into the outer circle with wisdom, love, and grace. Are you ready?

The substance and extent of God's plan for redemption were fully revealed through Jesus Christ.Colossians 1:24-2:5, 1 Timothy 3:16, Galatians 3:8, 28, Ephesians 3:6 The maturing believer who toils, struggles, and suffers for Christ enhances their joy and intimacy with Christ.Colossians 1:24-2:5, Acts 9:1-5, 15-16, 1 Thess. 5:14, 2 Timothy 3:10-12, Philippians 1:29-30, 1 Peter 3:13-14, 1 Peter 4:12-14, Colossians 4:12--------DAILY DEVOTIONAL WITH RON MOOREGet Ron's Daily Devotional to your inbox each morning; visit biblechapel.org/devo.CAREGIVINGDo you have a need we can pray for?

Discover the powerful truth of where God truly longs to dwell—not in grand temples or breathtaking landscapes, but within your very heart. This message looks at how King David dreamed of building a magnificent temple for God, yet God's plan was always deeper: to make His home within His people. Jesus spoke of the “inner room,” a sacred place inside each of us where His presence abides. In a world buzzing with noise, anxiety, and endless information, that inner sanctuary has never been more vital. What we nurture in our hearts inevitably shapes our words, relationships, and spiritual influence. Through scriptures like Ezekiel 36, John 14, 1 Corinthians 6, Matthew 6, and Colossians, this teaching reveals God's timeless desire to dwell within us—and offers practical ways to guard that sacred space, nurture His presence, and live from the inside out.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

In today's message, Pastor Christian Root continues the "Hidden with Christ" series, which studies the book of Colossians verse by verse, using Colossians 3:1-11 as the scripture reference. In this passage, Paul advises the church in Colossae to pursue two important goals. First, he encourages the Colossians to change their thought life. Second, he urges them to confront and overcome their sin.We hope you were blessed by this message! Visit our website for more information about Grove City Vineyard.

Jesus in Prayer MESSAGE SUMMARY: In this powerful exploration of Jesus' identity, we delve into the profound High Priestly Prayer found in John 17. This prayer reveals Jesus not just as a teacher or prophet, but as one who shares in the divine nature with God the Father. We're challenged to consider: Who is Jesus to us personally? The prayer showcases Jesus' unique relationship with the Father, calling Him 'Father' over 160 times in the Gospels. This intimacy extends to us as believers, inviting us into the very fellowship of the Trinity. As we contemplate this, we're reminded that our unity as Christians is rooted in our union with God Himself. The prayer also reveals Jesus' eternal existence and His role in creation, emphasizing His divinity. This understanding transforms how we view the cross - not as a tragedy, but as our salvation. Let's reflect on how this deeper knowledge of Jesus' nature can impact our daily walk with Him and our relationships with others.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen.  Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM A CHILD OF GOD. Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His Name, He gave the right to become children of God-- children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.

Put on the New Life (Colossians 3:1-17) - Sunday, 28th September 20251. We have a New Perspective (Colossians 3:1-4)If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.2. We have a New Practice (Colossians 3:5-11)- Put off the 'old' self (Colossians 3:5-9)Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;- Put on the 'new' self (Colossians 3:10-11)And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.3. We have a New Identity (Colossians 3:12-17)Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Parenting is one of life's greatest joys—and biggest challenges. Whether you're raising young kids, guiding teens, or encouraging grandchildren, the Bible offers timeless wisdom for every season of family life.In this message, we look at Paul's teaching in Colossians 3:20–21 about how godly families reflect the Fatherhood of God.You'll discover:Why obedience and honor matter in a child's spiritual growthHow fathers and parents can encourage rather than exasperateThe power of words that build up instead of tear downWhy laughter, fun, and relationship are essential to family healthHow parenting moves from rules to reason to relationshipHow godly parenting is reassuring, relational, and redemptiveThrough biblical teaching, practical insight, and real-life stories, we'll see how God calls us to create homes filled with love, encouragement, and grace—where children know they are deeply believed in and deeply loved.Key Scripture: Colossians 3:20–21Theme: Godly parenting reflects the Fatherhood of GodTakeaway: Build up your family with faith, fun, and forgiveness.Subscribe for more messages of truth and encouragement

Here are the key biblical principles applied to business and entrepreneurship:   1. Work and Diligence are Commended   The Bible encourages hard work and warns against laziness. This principle is fundamental to a successful venture. Diligence brings reward: "Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth." (Proverbs 10:4). Diligent hands: active, eager, willing to try anything….. When I first got online and saw the possibilities I figure out something pretty quick. Not every youth pastor had my creative skill and writing lessons for youth. I was already a regular contributor/writer for YouthWorker Journal - So I would put together these really good power point lessons with great applications. Then I sold them online… and guess what - people bought them!  To pay my bills I have lots of skills and I will try anything.  I have taught guitar, drums, I am a personal trainer. But all these things fit within my calendar. I can't take on another hourly, full time job - I am still and first a pastor. So Diligent hands seek what works best for each person.  Just today I hit up a woman who has a unique skill for other women- I can't give to much away just yet. But she absolutely loved my idea and wants to come on board. We will typically work with about 25 women for one night a week and make a few thousand dollars. Diligence - try anything and if you fail - keep trying.    YESTERDAY SOMEONE ASKED… Hey you said a $1000 bucks a week… how could you do that with just Uber… well my thought (and I did not explain it fully- sorry) is between uber, teach a lesson, sell something a $1000 a week is easy. Hey first and foremost - you better have a budget and stick to it! Or you will never have enough money!    Purposeful work: The creation narrative and later writings present work as a good, God-given activity (Genesis 2:15, Colossians 3:23-24). Work is seen as service, not just to people, but ultimately to the Lord…. Maybe you are asking the wrong question… maybe you should ask God what can I do to add value to your kingdom and get paid at the same time. A great friend of mine teaches martial arts/self protection… but he is also a strong believer. He gets paid well, has a strong client list, but uses this opportunity to share Christ all the time. It is a win win.    2. Stewardship and Investment   The concept of stewardship is central, suggesting that everything a person possesses—time, talent, and treasure—ultimately belongs to God and should be managed wisely… here is an idea, managing our time also means charging for our time. Listen I have a ton of people that would call me a friend - many times they want me to teach or train them for free because I am a friend and on top of that a pastor. Here is one simple rule I let them in on all the time. I have to charge my friends because my enemies won't do business with me. I say it in a fun loving way, but it gets the point across.  The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30): This parable is often cited as a direct encouragement for enterprise and investment. The master praises the servants who invested their money and produced a profit, while rebuking the one who buried his talent out of fear. This emphasizes the expectation of using resources (gifts, skills, capital, talents) productively, taking calculated risks, and seeking growth… is a God thing. It is a value to our maker.  The lazy servant is called wicked. He acted in fear… fear kept him from seeing his investments take off. FEAR will stop 95% of all people who have ideas to make extra money… but if you are lazy fear is a great excuse to fall back on. I will forever nag my friend for not acting on his stupid idea… it was Uber, but he never acted on it… FEAR!  Prudence and Planning: "For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and calculate the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?" (Luke 14:28). This speaks to the need for careful planning, foresight, and sound financial management in business… most buisinesses fail due to lack of financial backing and a lack of planning. I used to have the #1 powerlifting gym in the country. Now I have a nice small personal training gym. It has everything I need…in time I will open another gym for body soul and spirit. But until then I just keep planning, picking up equipment that is a steal… and when the time is right - Boom I will act. But I will no longer rush into things! 

Colossians 3:12Each day you can make a difference in someone's life. The people you come into contact with give you opportunities to extending kindness, courtesy, and compassion.

Willie and Jase lean hard into brotherly rivalry as Willie reveals his slow-drip strategy for getting under Jase's skin, then they turn their sights on Zach for some good-natured teasing. Al notes that both brothers are channeling their inner Phil, and Willie credits Phil for inspiring his latest book, “Courage: 40 Days to Sharing Your Faith.” The guys contrast Zacchaeus's willing heart with the rich young ruler's unwilling spirit and deliver a legacy gut-check: when it's all over, what will people say your life was really about?
