On Wednesday, Pastor Goodwin taught us about Jodie Smith, a Godly woman who came up with the following tool to fight the devil’s lies. It is found in her book, Buried Alive.
These are scriptures that tell us who we are in Christ, a simple concept that is easy and dangerous to forget. Bookmark this page and read these scriptures to yourself EVERY DAY and see what happens when God’s Truth gets ahold of your life.
