Acts 2:42-47 says, “42And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. 46And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47Praising God, and having favour with all the people.

Matthew 21:9 says, “And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.”  Have you ever missed watching your favorite team play, but you go to ESPN and wait to watch the highlights of the game? You have the game figured out in your own eyes based upon a couple of highlights and the stats a sports analyst gives. Unless you watched the game, you really do not fully grasp all of the work put in that game or

Romans 2:4 says, “Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?” Romans 8:9 says, “But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.” Acts 4:10-12 says, “10Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even

James 1:19-21 says, “19Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 20For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. 21Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.” If you were to brainstorm of different personalities that simply “get under your skin”, several may come to mind. However, I would like to bring to the light five different personalities that can be difficult to handle, but you will learn not only how to deal with

James 1:19-21 says, “19Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 20For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. 21Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.” No matter who you are, everyone has to deal with difficult people. Whether it is in the classroom, on the job, in the grocery store, driving on the road or talking with a next door neighbor, we will encounter personalities that are diametrically opposed to our normal

Romans 10:17 says, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” 2 Corinthians 5:7 says, “For we walk by faith, not by sight”. Many of us deal with the Thomas mentality. It is “I believe when you show me”, rather than “Show me and then I will believe”. If we aren’t careful, we will chase signs, wonders and miracle instead of the presence of God Almighty. We will simply look for the spectacular and be passionately drawn to its entertainment, living a version of Christianity that is diametrically opposed to that of the Book of Acts.

Romans 8:37 says, “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” In scripture, God never tells us that we should be defeated or possess a victim mentality. Instead, God’s Word says we are “more than conquerors”. In fact, we are champions! It does not mean we will never fall or ever face troubles and trials, but at the end, we are overcomers! We are more than conquerors because Jesus is more than a conqueror, and whatever He defeats we defeat as His bride and being one with Him. 1 John 5:4-5 says, “For whatsoever

Revelation 21:3-7 says, “3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me,

Acts 19:13-20 says, “13Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. 14And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. 15And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? 16And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and

Romans 8:6-9 (KJV) says, “6For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. 9But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.”  Romans 12:2 (KJV) says, “And be not conformed to this world:
