The Four Battles of a Christian, Part 1

December 6, 2019

There are four battles every Christian must face and win before he can defeat the devil: Sin, the World, the Flesh, and Self.

In this anointed devil-chasing message, learn how to identify and conquer these potential pitfalls. Even mature Christians, who have died to sin, come out of the world, and crucified the flesh, are often hamstrung by their own self-will. The truth will set you free!

The Last Blast By Sharon Hardy Knotts
It’s not a brass trumpet, but a shofar—a ram's horn. There are 4 different blasts: One was long, increasing in loudness, the one that sounded on Mt. Sinai when God spoke. God came down, and Moses went up, symbolic of the rapture of the saints. Rabbis say that Satan can’t tell the difference between the shofar & God’s voice. In Revelation, John confirmed God’s voice sounded like a shofar saying, “Come up here” typifying the rapture. Paul called it “the last trump” that will wake up the dead in Christ & summon the living to be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. It is not the seventh trumpet of Rev. 8 as the “mid-trib” stance claims—meaning the living Church will go through the first half of the Tribulation. We have been delivered from the wrath to come!

Written from his Roman prison cell, the aged Apostle Paul penned his most joyful epistle to the Philippians. After decades of ministry marked with much sufferings for Christ, he had learned the secret to a fruitful and enduring faith: Forget the hurts of the Past... Reach for the blessings of the Present...Press toward the prize of the Future... the rapture-resurrection! Many Christians live in depression and regret over their unhappy pasts. Only when you let go of the past, can you embrace the present and reach for daily victory in Christ. As citizens of Heaven we keep our eyes on the goal line for the prize of the calling up on high!

Manifesto: A public, official, declaration of a person or group's statement of beliefs, mission, and its implementation. Jesus stated Satan's manifesto: "The thief has come not but to steal, and to kill, and destroy." This is his one and only agenda, and he is actively carrying it out. 1 John 3:8 is Jesus' manifesto: "For this purpose was the Son of God manifest, that he might destroy the works of the devil." Jesus was manifest to destroy the destroyer! He came to loose us from the power of sin, bondage, sickness, and torment, and to take back what the devil stole from us!

The Gospels are chock full of the messages and miracles Jesus ministered. The multitudes mobbed Him. The disciples even sought to keep people away, but Jesus often went out of His way to minister to just one hurting heart or sick body; loose one captive from his/her prison of pain or shame. Never was this so powerfully and poignantly illustrated than when He went to Samaria on purpose and encountered a woman at the well. A sinful Samaritan woman. But Jesus gently pressed His way into her heart, revealing her shameful past, uncovering her secret sins, and quenching her thirsty soul with His love and forgiveness. In the end, she ran into the city joyfully exclaiming to all that she had met the Messiah! There is no greater pulpit than a changed life, and you are safe to share your heart with Jesus!

About Sharon Hardy Knotts and R. G. Hardy

R.G. Hardy is the Pastor of Faith Tabernacle in Baltimore, Maryland which he founded in 1958. He was marvelously saved after a personal encounter with the Lord in the living room of his home in January 1953, and was called into a prophetic teaching ministry. Shortly before he had been miraculously healed of a crippling back injury. Since these events, R.G. Hardy Ministries has broadened the scope of its outreaches through daily radio broadcasts, television, evangelistic crusades, Gospel publications, and missionary crusades and support.

For more than 50 years, R.G. Hardy has been recognized by the calling of a powerful prophetic anointing and message of salvation, diving healing, and deliverance through the authority of the Name of Jesus. By this anointing of power, he has demonstrated the message of the Gospel with signs following as God confirms His Word through the resurrection power of His son, Jesus Christ. Through the years, Brother Hardy hosted many of the crusades for the healing evangelists of the 1950's and 1960's. He has a rich heritage founded in the Pentecostal movement. Many ministers have received early training under his leadership and revelation anointing that is manifested when he ministers. In this world of compromise, R.G. Hardy has not compromised the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. He has and still is "earnestly contending for the faith of our fathers."

Sharon Hardy Knotts is the daughter of R.G. & Doranne Hardy. She has served alongside of her parents in ministry at Faith Tabernacle Church, Baltimore, Maryland since childhood. Sharon was baptized in the Holy Spirit at age 7 in an old-fashioned tent revival, where she was slain in the Spirit, speaking in tongues. She began "preaching" in youth services at age 9, and began traveling with her father in evangelistic meetings at age 13.

Like her father and grandmother before her (Mother Mary Hardy), Sharon is an avid student of the Bible and holds a Master's in Theology from CLST, Columbus, Georgia. She is an accomplished teacher of the Word and also an anointed preacher. The marriage of these different delivery styles has produced scores of ministry tapes on various pertinent topics, which appeal to many believers.

Sharon and her husband Benny serve in fulltime ministry at R.G. Hardy Ministries. He prints Faith Is Action and oversees its publication and distribution. Family: Three grown children, Scott & Todd Stubblefield, and Sarah Knotts. Daughters-in-laws: Corinne & Amy Stubblefield. Grandsons: Noah & Matthew Stubblefield are Scott's sons. Sharon especially enjoys writing and serves as Editor of Faith Is Action and other Ministry publications. She also writes essays and poetry, some of which can be found on her blog.
