Everything valuable has been counterfeited, people don't counterfeit things that are not valuable. Even in the times of the apostles we read of Jesus being counterfeited.

Paul Washer begins his exhortations by dealing with the speculations (AV = \u2018imaginations\u2019) which must be cast down if we are to fulfil our calling to be a biblical people. He focuses on the roles of men in particular, both in their families and their local churches, which he shows to be the two hardest places to live out a Biblical manhood. Most problems in those two areas, he says, can be traced back to men not standing on truth and not acting Biblically. Working through specific examples, he shows how the speculations of men actually fight against God, and also shows how such things should be put right. He then focuses in some detail on marriage, using Romans 8:28. Once a man discovers the true purpose of marriage, and learns what it means to love his wife as Christ loves the church, he will find both joy and rest in putting an end to his former speculations about the nature of marriage.

By taking us through the tests in 1 John, he helps us examine our choices and lifestyle. Do we look and act like the world around us or are we striving against the current to follow our King?",
"description":"Every person has passion. Even the man sitting in an easy chair has an ambition to not be ambitious. We're so busy with so many pursuits that we shouldn't follow. Some of those ambitions will destroy us if they aren't right ambitions. For what ambition were you intended to be swallowed up by life for? What awaits you?",
"description":"Pastor McLeod shares many passages of scripture and examples from his own experience of revival and some from the experience of others, emphasizing the importance of prayer, especially in the preparation of the work of God in the midst of His people. After a summary of testimonials that led up to the revival in Saskatoon, Bill touches upon several vital aspects that prayer has in effecting revival, which he defines as \"Christians coming up to a New Testament level.\" \"Prayer,\" he says, \"is the first thing and only thing.\"",
"description":"\"If you're currently receiving the abundance of grace,\" says Alan Martin, \"you're abounding in life.\" Because all of the grace of God is in Christ, when you have Him, you have it all! Our great need then is to grow through the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the awareness of what God has already given us in Christ.",
"description":"\"The Christian life,\" says Zac Poonen, \"is not following a code of conduct; it's following a Person.\" Brother Zac explains many failures in the Christian life that come by \"doing something for the Lord\" without waiting upon Him and obeying the little promptings of the Holy Spirit. \"When you listen to God and do what He says, you can do more in six months than in sixty years of trying to do something on your own.\"",
"description":"With God, suffering is never the end. This is an exciting truth of Christian discipleship. But what does it really mean, and how can we apply it to our lives?",
"description":"With God, suffering is never the end. This is an exciting truth of Christian discipleship. But what does it really mean, and how can we apply it to our lives? The answer is in this meditation!",
"description":"There is great attack against those on the \"front lines\" in ministry. The devil is aiming all of his amunition toward those who \"love God and are the called according to His purpose.\" This is a message about the war with the principalities, a war that true Christian\u2019s fight each and every day. This spiritual war was declared in the Garden of Eden but in these last days Satan is changing his plans. Time is near and Satan knows that his time is short. Since the cross, Satan has approached this spiritual warfare in a different way for those that are covered by the blood of Jesus Christ.",
"description":"John Piper affectionately addresses his congregation to be evangelists and the right spirit in doing so. The right kind of evangelism flows from seeing and savoring Jesus Christ not from private revelation but the revelation of the Holy Spirit of Christ in the Bible. When we are directed back to the portrait of Christ, it is the key to all evangelism and our transformation.",
"description":"Brother Zac Poonen shares about seeking God and how many things can hinder finding fellowship with the Lord. He shares on the sabbath rest and how God prescribed a rest so that God could be put first. In the same way in the New Covenant we are to give our first to the Lord amidst the distractions and allures of this world. One chief underlying factor of not seeking the Lord is greed for money and covetousness of which the children of Israel fell into time and time again instead of seeking the Lord first.",
"scripture":"2 Corinthians 1:20, Matthew 1:21, Matthew 3:11",
"topic":"Promises",
"description":"\"We have a tendency toward old covenant blessings and never come into the new covenant,\" says brother Zac. Seven wonderful promises--deliverance from sins, fullness of the Spirit, bearable tests, sufficient grace, and others--are by faith in the One--Jesus Christ--in whom every promise is Yes when we give our Amen.",
"description":"Perhaps you feel discouraged at the moment. Do the same problems keep cropping up, the same sins even though you\u2019ve given your life to Jesus Christ?",
"description":"God lives and works today! But perhaps you don\u2019t feel that way at the moment. Do the same problems keep cropping up, the same sins even though you\u2019ve given your life to Jesus Christ? This meditation will encourage you!",
"description":"God lives and works today! Why do these words bring so little joy to most of our lives? Could it be that our lives have taken paths that aren\u2019t in accordance with God\u2019s will - paths that lead us further away from Him? This meditation called, TURN-ABOUT is a practical help for all those of us who would like to find our way back to God.

"description":"Often called \"the hard letter\", this is an intensely personal letter. It recounts the difficulties and hardships Paul has endured in the service of Christ (10-13). The Apostle regards the Corinthians as his children in Christ.",
"description":"\"One of the byproducts of knowing God as Father was it delivered me from competition with other believers,\" speaks brother Zac. Knowing God as Father is one of his favorite subjects, never tiring to share how much liberty comes in the Christian life, assurance that truly all things work together for good, and the deliverance from counterfeit holiness that comes from the fear of man.",
"description":"Don Courville shares about Apostle Paul's thorn in the flesh. Is Christ all you need? Everything to the Glory of God. This is a great radio devotional bringing biblical balance to this very important subject.",
"description":"Accommodate means to adapt, to make suitable and acceptable, to make convenient. A gospel of accommodation is creeping into the United States. It's an American cultural invention to appease the lifestyle of luxury and pleasure. Primarily a Caucasian, suburban gospel, it's also in our major cities and is sweeping the nation, influencing ministers of every denomination, and giving birth to megachurches with thousands who come to hear a nonconfronting message.",
"description":"What does Judgment mean for a Christian? Pastor Lutzer expounds the Judgments\u2019 of Christ. Lutzer goes on and preaches that a Christian will be judged fairly, individually and thoroughly. This is a much neglected topic in preaching in our generation.",
"description":"Bill Mcleod covers the subject of the occult showing what things are hidden and beyond the bounds of normal human knowledge. Such occult is demonic and opposed to the counsel and spirit of God. We are to have no fellowship with the hidden things of darkness but rather reprove and uncover these things.",

"description":"This message delivered by Mark Greening is a powerful exhortation to true prayer and intercession that brings revival. With testimonies of God working just months before and examples of church history of such praying. With many scriptures given to substantiate this type of praying we are helpless but to say we have not such a conception of praying in our day. Oh may we humble ourselves and let our Master teach us afresh what it means to \"travail.\"",

"description":"Bill Mcleod shares about times in scripture when the glory of God departs. This is a very sobering message that has the anointing of God's Spirit on it. It is very clear that the message is spoken as the oracles of God. Some of the testimonies that are shared at the end of true revival are very God glorifying. Oh that God might send a revival again.",

"description":"Jeff Christianson shares that the desire of God is for His Church to walk in holy living before Him. He explains that this power is not of ourselves but of God and by the operation of God's Holy Spirit. Will you let Christ in you change your living today to do His will?",
"description":"Are you discouraged? Are you about to give up? Pastor Cymbala examines how Paul handled adversity. We trust you will find this message encouraging as it points to God's faithfulness. He looks at the passage of 2 Corinthians where it says that outward circumstances seem to be against us but internally we have an eternal destination so we should set our hearts there with that hope.",

"description":"God lives and works today! But perhaps it is hard for you to believe this because you are sick, wondering why God would let you suffer this way? Or perhaps you feel so run down and tired that you don't know what to do or think? If either of these is the case, the following message may have just the help you've been looking for!",
"description":"This is a message about God\u2019s purposes in the recession. By recession I don\u2019t have any sophisticated definition in mind. I just mean various financial setbacks like business slowdown, decreasing profits, massive layoffs and joblessness, the bursting of the housing bubble, thousands of foreclosures, personal and business bankruptcies, bank failures, investment company collapses, the loss of retirement funds, and the social ills and unrest that go with the downturn. God is sovereign over these things, he foresees them all, he causes or permits them all, and when he causes or permits something, he does so with purpose and design.",
"description":"There is the way of the world and God's way of holiness. The world gets engaged with a party, drinking and boozing, but we as Christians do it in God's house with prayer and in holiness. Some say that there are many ways to celebrate an engagement. Yes, there certainly are many ways to hell but only one way to heaven. The ring the young man gives to his future bride is a token and promise that he will keep himself pure for her until the day of marriage; in receiving the ring, the girl makes the same promise. Young people should live like Mary the mother of Jesus. When the angel told her that she would bare a son, she replied, \u201cHow can this be, since I do not know a man?\u201d (Luke 1:34) She lived a holy and pure life as we read in 1Cor 7:34, \u201cThe unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit.\u201d",
