The Holy Spirit's Voice

It Is Written, John 14:26, but the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, that one will teach you all things and will remind you of everything which I myself sent to you.
Obeying God is a problem for many people. They somehow get the idea that God is like some kind of dictator, ordering people about. His rules seem like my way or the highway. This could not be farther from what He desires
Take a look at some of the results of your own decisions, without condemning yourself. Were the results good or bad? How did they affect you and your family? Do you have any regrets, or would you like a do over ?
Picture driving to a tiny town on the other side of the country. Would you  do it without a map? Are your map reading skills good enough? If you use the GPS, it will tell you where to turn, and which road to take. It will correct you when you don't follow a particular instruction.
Life is a tougher trip. We need the ultimate direction giver. Pioneers used guides, because they knew what lay ahead. God knows every little obstacle and how it will affect us. No one, including the smartest of us can do that. So the best advice is,  partner up with the one who died for you, and wants the best for you, in this life and the next. God bless you and your family. Praise Lord!

Prayer of Salvation
Lord Jesus, I thank you for what you did on the cross for me. Your blood washed away all my sins, by your stripes I was healed, your death and resurrection brought me salvation. Please forgive my sins, and come into my heart as my personal Savior.
Thank You Lord
 Amen

Time Flies

It Is Written, Ephesians 5:15-16, see then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Have you ever looked back at your life, and wondered where all those years went? Were you shocked by it? Join the club.
When you are young, 20 or 30 years in the future seems like a long way off. You have plenty of time to get your life in order, or do you? Remember this. Today you are where it seemed was a long way off, 20 or 30 years ago.
Consider this. If you haven't made much progress in the last 30 years, what do you expect will be different in the next 30, if you don't change the way you do things. Life can last another 50 or 60 years, or another fifty or sixty seconds. We don't know when the clock will stop ticking for us.
Here is a simple suggestion. Re-evaluate your life, realizing how quickly time flies. Are you right with God? Someone once said, live each day as if it is your last. Someday it will be. Go with God, and the years will be fruitful. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

Messengers for Salvation

It Is Written, Hebrews 1:14, are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?
Do you have someone close to you, who is not saved yet? If you do, you are not alone. People who don't know Jesus, usually feel uncomfortable at the mention of Jesus name. They may change the subject, or flat out say that they don't want to discuss it. There are usually reasons for this attitude that even they don't know.
When you mention the name of Jesus, you plant a seed. Don't give up. Don't pursue this by yourself, unless you are led by the Holy Spirit. All you have to do is plant the seed and the Holy Spirit will do the rest.
A couple of weeks ago, I heard a well-known preacher say that God will send an angel in the form of a person, to someone we pray for to be saved. That may seem a little hard to believe, but I really do believe that that is exactly what happens.
At this point I guess I will stretch it and say something that I honestly believe to be true. A person who is saved, through the power of the Holy Spirit, can send his spirit to someone in order for them to get the message. All it really takes, is love.
It all really boils down to this. When you pray for someone to receive a messenger that they will listen to, about Jesus, and believe it with your heart, the Holy Spirit will make it happen. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

Everyone Is Important

It Is Written, 1 Corinthians 12:14, for in fact the body is not one member but many.
Everyone is important to God. When He created the world, and planned the generations that would inhabit it, He didn't create favorites. Since God had a plan for each person, He values each person and the role they fill in this world.
When you accept Jesus and follow His plan, your life is blessed. You benefit from all God has because you are His child. You are a part of His body, the church, on this earth.
No one who rejects Jesus is saved. People who don't follow God's plan, usually have a hard time, because they trust in themselves, or something else, so they make bad decisions.
People who reject Jesus are doomed, but God still weeps over them. He wants all to be saved. People who repent and accept Jesus after a lifetime of rebellion, are saved. God and Heaven rejoice when that happens. So who is important? You and everyone else. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

A Personal God

It Is Written, 1 Corinthians 3:16, do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
On a number of occasions, I have heard various preachers say that head knowledge of Jesus is not enough to be saved. It takes heart knowledge to be saved.That bothered me for a long time. I really believed, but I didn't really know what heart knowledge was or what it is supposed to feel like.
It occurred to me one day, when I was watching a Jesus movie, or even a regular movie, (not one with evil spirits, sex, murder) that I was touched by certain things.
When I saw Jesus being abused in the movie, it seemed like I felt His pain, and I became angry at the Jewish leaders as well as the Romans. It is then that I discovered that whenever I saw something that seemed to go against God or his people it bothered me in my heart. I began to get the idea what heart knowledge is. It wasn't my head that told me, it was my heart that was being prompted by the Holy Spirit.
 When I started to pray the next time, instead of the usual Father or Lord, I said "my father". When I did, the floodgates opened and my heart was overwhelmed with the loving closeness for Jesus. That my friends is what I believe heart knowledge to be. It isn't something you think about, it's something you ask the Holy Spirit to show you. Don't doubt at all, He will show you in no uncertain terms. God Bless You and Your Family            
Praise The Lord!

Why Me?

It Is Written, James 1:2-4, my brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials. Knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
Have you ever asked yourself that question? Why me? If you have, you are part of a large group on this earth. People have been asking that, since there were people.
I don't think there is a simple answer to that question. Things may not happen for any particular reason. In Ecclesiastes 9:11, it is written, again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to those with knowledge, but time and chance happen to them all.
Solomon said that as he reflected on his life. We live in a corrupt world. satan runs around passing out all kinds of problems to as many as he can. As it says in Ecclesiastes, time and chance play a big part, but trust in God and patience, will help you be a winner.
Sometimes God allows things to happen in order to wake someone up in order to find salvation. Ask the Holy Spirit about your problem. He always explains and helps believers who ask. God bless you and your family. Praise Lord!

A List

Money Or God

It Is Written, Matthew 6:24, but no one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
We make this decision every day, without realizing it. We look at money as security, fulfillment of needs and desires. Some even look at it as ultimate power.
We do not realize that money is a two-edged sword. Money can lead us to bad places. How we get it, what we do with it are two examples. It can be an evil tool of satan, as he leads us to replace God in our lives with a false God, money. I must add at this time, that the Bible doesn't say money is evil, but the love of money, is what causes the problem.
The Bible has plenty to say about money, not very much is positive. Try reading Proverbs. God wants us to count on Him for everything. God knows that money can and usually does lead to pride and destruction.
Money, investments, whatever way you look at it, can lose all value overnight. There are no safe investments. Instead of putting your trust in the false God of money, put your trust in Jesus. He is the safest way to live. God bless you and your family. Praise Lord!

The One Jesus Loved

It is Written, Romans 5:8, but God demonstrates His own love toward us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
If you read the Gospels, you notice that one of the apostles seems closer to Jesus than the rest. You may not think this is true, because Jesus loved everyone. The Bible says God has no favorites. If that is true how can one seem to be closer?
During Jesus time on earth, no one thought Jesus was especially close to anyone, because he loved everyone. So how did the disciple Jesus loved, come to be.
In the Gospel of John, John refers to himself as the one Jesus loved. That title was created by John himself, because he experienced divine spiritual love from Jesus, and felt special.
We can all feel as John did. If we work on getting closer to Jesus by getting to really know Him through the Bible, and ask Him to live in us, we will feel the same way John did. It is written that if you get closer to Him, He gets closer to you. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

Don't Dwell On It

It Is Written, Proverbs 16:3, commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.
From the time we first started school, we are taught to figure things out, and to plan ahead, even if it is just tomorrow's homework. As adults we have been conditioned to plan ahead and work out problems. We are bombarded with ads to improve ourselves so we can provide for the future.
Well my friends, you probably know by now that five-year plans, or plans in general, usually don't work out. Is that because we are not very smart, or things just happen for no apparent reason?
If you are an unbeliever you might just call it bad luck. If you are a believer however, you may call it God's will. Either way it is a product of free will.
If you are a believer, and you dwell on something, you are telling God that He cannot handle it, so you will. By not giving Him your concerns, you are saying you don't trust Him. So wise up, and let God take care of it for you, by letting it go and handing it over to Him. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

A Vision of Healing

It Is Written, acts 19:11, and God was doing extraordinary miracles, by the hands of Paul.
Everyone gets sick or has some kind of accident in their lifetime. There is no escaping it. Different people handle those situations differently.
The majority of people go to a doctor when a health issue comes up. Sometimes an illness can be taken care of with pills, sometimes with surgery, and sometimes not at all.
Christians get sick too. Some Christians believe in divine healing. They believe that by Jesus stripes, they were healed, and they receive that healing by faith. Many times that healing does occur.
What happens when you don't have enough faith to believe for that healing? There is nothing wrong with going to the doctor. Jesus uses them the way He uses other things in nature, as well as people to do His work on this earth.
Take a good look at the picture above. I believe that it is a true representation of how Jesus heals many people. Keep that picture in your heart, and believe. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!

Who Are They ?

This may seem like a strange title, but this title says a lot. Many people do not know who they are.
If you ask most people who they are, they will usually tell you what they do for a living. It's pretty common for people to see themselves that way, because it requires no thought.
Take politics for instance. Many older people say they are Democrat or Republican, simply because the last three or four generations of their family were one or the other. Other than that they cannot give you a reason.
Religion is the same way. Most people say they are one  denomination or another, but most of the time they do not practice that religion. A large percentage never even took the time to find out what their particular denomination stood for.
Many people claim to be Christian, but are they? As with the other examples, in order to be what you claim, you must put it into action. Christianity especially, is not a spectator sport. It all boils down to one simple fact. Whatever you claim to be, learn about it, and live it. God bless you and your family. Praise Lord!

When Satan Strikes

It Is Written, 1 Peter 5:8, be sober minded, the watchful. Your adversary the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour.
It is not uncommon to hear believers complain about satan attacking them. He does it by bringing up past sins in order to condemn the person he is attacking
satan puts bad thoughts in everyone's head. Most of those people do not know that they do not have to accept those thoughts.
satan twists facts almost as much as the news media these days. He misquotes the Bible to deceive you, and to see if you know God's Word. He never rests, and will not stop, unless you stop him.
To fight satan, know this. He knows when people are afraid of him, and he ups the attacks. He knows people panic, and make his job easier. Hopeless? Read on.
Since we cannot defeat satan without God, true believers use God's Word as their most powerful weapon. Jesus defeated satan for all time. So in Jesus name tell satan to leave, and get in the Word. God bless you and your family. Praise Lord!
