“Then after some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us now go back and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they are doing.” Acts 15:36

Paul and Barnabas both agreed in the Holy Spirit to the importance of revisiting the new converts in every city where they preached the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The purpose was to encourage the new believers to continue in the way of Christ and to be firmly rooted in the grace and knowledge of Jesus. As followers of Jesus, the Holy Spirit encourages one another in the faith. The Holy Spirit speaks these words to us, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

We live in a world where today’s culture, which is global, serves an atheistic entity. That entity is the beast that oppresses the presence of the Holy Spirit to give people what to speak, think, feel, and do. That beast gives life to the image of the beast to speak and live through people everywhere and by what they say and do they discourage Christianity. They are groomed to the mark of the beast by what they are given to say and do. We need to encourage one another to be strong and of good courage, not to be afraid or dismayed, the God of Jesus Christ is with us everywhere we go.

“Therefore encourage one another and build up one another, just as you also are doing.” 1 Thessalonians 5:11

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:11
