In Episode 37, AC speaks to the "wake-up call" she had to set for herself. It serves as a reminder of the truth of God's Word concerning sin crouching at the door, the schemes of the devil, and the dark age in which we live. This 15-minute audio recording is a personal battle cry AC uses to encourage her heart and remember to trust God at His Word first thing in the morning. Don't let sin, the desires of the flesh, or the enemy of your soul have its way with you. Deny the flesh, put on the whole armor of God, resist the devil, take up your cross, and follow the example of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

What appeared to be a series of unfortunate and coincidental events in the Clark family turned out to be yet another wake-up call to the spiritual battle we face every day. The Christian is called to take off the flesh daily, put on the whole armor of God daily, and engage in the spiritual battle. Join AC as she shares a personal "wake-up call" and what Scripture reminds us of each day: to deny the flesh, resist the devil, take up your cross, and follow the example of Jesus Christ.

When Truth was put on trial in John chapter 18, a cross stood between politics and the religious leaders. When sociopolitical wars inevitably circulate in culture, there will always be a cross between what God says is right in Scripture and what sinful man will say. AC continues the conversation on kings in the Old Testament, focusing on who the Lord brought into a king's life to help him or had to sift out of a king's life for the same purpose, to help him.

Our lives in Christ, our marriages, and our families are all living, walking testimonies to how the Spirit of God is at work within us, changing us from the inside out. The dead do not testify. Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life. When He called Lazarus out of the grave (John 11), a stone was rolled away, and Lazarus walked out of the grave wearing graveclothes; he lived! Jesus demonstrated His power over death by raising a dead man to life. Best believe, Lazarus was changed! He had to remove those graveclothes, wash, change, and serve as a living, walking testimony to the power of Christ.

A life spent gratifying and pacifying the flesh through carnal want and pleasure is the fast life that the world and culture peddle to consumers to hurry up and buy daily. The fast life is a life spent living for the flesh or walking in the Spirit. Jesus said to his disciples, If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me (Matthew 16:24). The lie of instant gratification is repackaged and sold in every generation. We, as Christians, err when we do not know the Scriptures or the power of God (Matthew 22:29) to move in our life, marriage, and family.

If we had to be married to everything we gave our "yes" to, many of us would be more intentional before the agreement. An agreement, passive or intentional, is our word. It is accepting to be bound to what we give our "yes" to. We often give our "yes" to the spirit behind an agreement only to find out later there were terms of the deal we did not bargain for. The fine print is what God warns us about in Scripture. Join AC as she breaks down how the enemy repackages the same old lie He wants every generation to blindly agree with.

To profane is to violate. When there is no distinction between the things meant to be set apart as holy for the Lord, it diminishes our worship. Instead, we offer up the things of God to be devoured by the lust of the flesh, the word, and the enemy. We are called as Christians to be holy as God is holy. Marriage is holy. How we raise these little ones is our reasonable service to the Lord. Creating an atmosphere of worship is a heart posture. It is reverence for God as Holy and a heart posture of worship.
