I'm here to...
encourage others and to spur others to grow in their relationship with God. I know with the help of the Holy Spirit we can all become fruitful in our lives in being His ambassadors..
Interests:
My greatest interest is to build up the Body of Christ.

I love the Word of God and I also love having The Holy Spirit in my life.

JESUS IS MY EVERYTHING!
I'm passionate about...
Becoming a fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ and helping others to do the same.

I am passionate for revival to touch the whole world, I am passionate to see young people established in the faith. I am passionate to help hurting people finding help in their hour of need.
My story with God
Many times we come up against the issue of supporting others. Illness, Finances, relationships, and death are a few issues where support is called for.

I want to discuss how we are to support those who are afflicted with illness whether emotional, physical, or spiritual.

As Christians we have a responsibility to care for those who are ill, First by prayer, because we should always be lifting up those who are sick and ask God to heal them.

While we are waiting for that healing to manifest we should be doing all we can by supporting them in a practical since. Bring meals, visit them, go do errands for them, do Bible studies with them if they are up to it. And most of all keep praying with, and for them.


Do not ever make the person feel bad if they are not instantly healed. The two pillars of love are patience and kindness, our job is to support them and not judge them.

“Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;” ( James 5:14 )

“Because I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger, and you welcomed me. I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you took care of me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’
“Then the righteous will say to him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and give you something to eat, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you as a stranger and welcome you, or see you naked and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?”
40The king will answer them, “I tell you with certainty, since you did it for one of the least important of these brothers of mine, you did it for me.”
( Matthew 25:35-40 )

“And they were casting out many demons and were anointing with oil many sick people and healing them.' ( Mark 6:16 )

“...they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." ( Mark 16:18b, )

Also there will be support that is needed for those who have mental issues. Our support for them could be to make sure they are taking their prescribed medications, visiting them, and to just be in their life for them.

The scripture says to comfort ( be near ) the feeble minded. ( Fainthearted, discouragement, little strength, timid ) (1 Thessalonians 5:14 0

This scripture really says a lot about what it means to comfort some one with a mental illness, “to be near them”.

Many times we just stay clear of them and hope the secular doctors can help them.

You may know of someone in your church who has one of their family member diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Others might have a family member who is suicidal, and maybe your best Christian friend has fallen into clinical depression.

It is at these times that we need to draw near to them and bring comfort, support, and encouragement to them.

There was a story in Mark chapter two about a paralyzed man who was brought to Jesus to be healed, His friends were so disparate to see their friend healed that they literally tore the roof off the house so they could lower the cot with the paralyzed man was on it down into the house where Jesus was, and the man was healed.

This is such a picture of how we are to support and help the sick. These men loved their friend and had faith to believe Jesus could heal him and they were so convinced that they went to extremes to see their friend healed.

It makes all the difference in the world for those who are afflicted with physical or mental illness to know that they are loved and do not have to face their illness alone.
Other stuff about me:
I write devotionals that I share with others, I write them from the things God is teaching me every day.

I know how discouraged we can get and how important it is to find a refreshing word of encouragement. I desire to have the moral character of Jesus to develop more in my life so that glory will be given to God. I desire to touch others with the love of God in this new year like never before.

I want nothing more than to hear my Lord say well done thy good and faithful servant, to end my race well for Him and to finish the race of faith he has given to me.

    Dear Bro-in Christ Jesus,

    Your story is deeply touching and it was inspiring to read. I strayed for different reasons that do not matter now, but it is because of Jesus that I am back within his safe arms. Although he never left me I walked away. His love for us is deeper than anything we can ever understand! I am in awe! Blessings and great Joy to you!

  • Adriaan

    Brother, I can only imagine what it is like to be without members of your family, this festive season was a hard one for me as well, as it was the first one without my dad and my first birthday with not hearing anything from him or having him arround. Although I can only praise the Lord for His strenght and mercy and the Holy Spirit who comforted me so wel, God is so faithful and truly a Father to the fatherless.

    Wow that is so awesome, I actually took Legerna last week to the movies and we've also watched Bed time Stories, and indeed we've enjoyed it. It was clean and funny. I defenitly going to watch Fireproof, my one friend also recommended it to me, he actually help with the launching of Christian movies in South Africa. I don't know whether you get this movie in the US, but it is called Hansie, it is a whole life story of one of South Africa's Cricket captains, and what he went through, but he was born again as well. If you can get hold of it, then you must watch it.

    Well hope to hear again from you soon.
    The Lord bless you this week and He is your strength.
  • Steve

    Thank you Bob for the welcome.
  • Eric Johnson Jr.

    Praise the Lord. God bless you Bob B. Just beautiful. Wonderful Lord Jesus. Thank you for word of God. "Precious Lord, take my hand, Lead me on, help me stand, I am tired, I am weak, I am worn, Thro the storm, thro the night, Lead me on to the light, Tale my hand, precious Lord..," Amen. Praise God. God bless you brother. Philippians 3:13-14.
  • Carla


    Thank you for the reminder.. God has used roses to get my attention before.. By showing me roses He has taught me to always be thankful for the thorns. God is so amazing....when He prompts each of us to send something, we don't fully understand the magnificence of that message to the receiver...
    God has also shown me the blossom of a rose and how beautiful it is....and He showed me, and is showing me the process of becoming that beautiful blossom by His loving hand..

    In Addition to all of this, I prayed for the Lord to "Show me His Loving Kindness" this morning...and then I logged on and got your message. Wow! Praise God!

    ps--...I changed my page again, I know you will love it!

    Love and Blessings in Christ, Carla

    DEAREST GENTLE BROTHER
    I AM ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE PREPARING TO DO AND I CAN SEE THAT IN ALL THE SMALL THINGS YOU SEE GOD'S BLESSING. AMAZING... CAT NOT USING A LITTERBOX!!! SMALL BUT YET SOMETHING TO THANK GOD FOR. SOME PEOPLE EVEN FORGET TO SAY GRACE BEFORE THEY EAT??? I WATCH FOLKS IN RESTAURANTS AND I FEEL SO GLAD WHEN I SEE THEM TAKING HANDS AND ASKING GOD TO BLESS THEIR FOOD!

    BOB IT IS GOOD TO BE BACK HOME AND TO SLEEP IN MY OWN BED ON MY OWN PILLOW (I THANK GOD FOR THE SMALL THINGS LIKE MY BED AND MY PILLOW AND THE COMFORTS OF HOME)... BUT THE SCENERY WAS AWESOME AND IT MADE ME REALIZE WHAT A POWERFUL AND MIGHTY GOD WE HAVE! JUST LOOKING AT HIS CREATION...

    WELL, I AM GOING TO GIVE THE BETTER PART OF ME (MY HUSBAND) SUPPER AND (SMILE) WE WILL SAY GRACE TOGETHER THANKING GOD ALMIGHTY FOR THE FOOD!

    LOVE YOU AND APPRECIATE YOUR WISDOM

    Bob,
    your story is touching and beautiful! You left my eyes with tears but my heart with joy. The joy that only God can give through His wonderful healing power. I'm so glad that there were angels in your life who helped bring you to a place of victory in Jesus. What a blessing you have been to me and to my children who are sitting here with me as we read your story. God bless you!

    Thank you Bob, the song was wonderful! I don't have a video of my favorite song, but to return the favor I'll give you a link to listen to it. I don't know who's singing or what the song is called, but it was misnamed and the artist listed is also wrong. It's beautiful though...listen to the third song, it's just over 5 minutes long.

    God bless you Bob!

  • Christian Speegle

    I'm listening to the new song now, it's beautiful, and I have to be honest, it's amazing to be back here. I never realized how much I missed it until I asked Greg to let me come back and I waited for 2 days for him to reply (it was the weekend - it's not that he was ignoring me, it's just that he was away from work until monday...but when he got my email he immediately reactivated my account).

    I will pray for Jimmy - perhaps you could give him my email address and we could speak directly (cspeegle92@gmail.com)? Or if he's a member here, could you link me to his page? We may be able to help each other out a lot as far as the science classes go because we both have the same problem.

    Let me know how the retreat goes, and the new believers class - I wish I could be there for those :(

    God bless!

    Bob, I thank God for you and for your fruitful ministry among us. We know it is the mighty working of the grace and power of God's salvation in you. Let Him go on using you. Many more are waiting to be blessed by enountering the love of the Christ in you. I appreciate your prayers and inspiring words and music. God bless you. I am praying for you.
  • Ron Gross

    Good morning,Bob! Where are you working and who do you work with? Are you on a field outside the U.S.?
  • PoiemaDei

    I thank God for opening the door for you to continue in the fruitful works of the Spirit in you. I am praying that the Holy Spirit will continue to reveal Himself to you and use you to share His glroy with those who will be attending that retreat next month, if the Lord permits. Your desire to help young believers be established in the Lord is so needful in ministers today. The only means of solid growth and stability for any believer in these evil times is to be rooted and grounded in Christ. There are so many distractions by worldly alternatives and ideas challenging young believers. I thank God for you in your efforts to contribute what is of Christ.

    A favorite Scripture passage that guides me along this line is in Colossians 2:8-10:
    8: Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
    9: For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily;
    10: and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.
