My story with God
I have been saved and delivered for a year and a half and
I love every waking moment, Our father used my marriage to draw me closer to him.........And I have been on that journey ever sense and must say He does bless those who are obeidient and stand on his word for everything, Though I'm still growing and I face many challenges that most Christan and as a human-being.
Other stuff about me:
I am a decendant of Jamaica most of my family including mother are back in Jamaica. I am happy that I turned everything over to the Lord and he has saved me from the unhappiness I was experiencing in my marriage,I thought about our sons ( who are loving, emotional, sensitve, and are learning to be spiritualy grounded) and how as young men should treat thier ladies I don't want to see them disrespecting, or being verbal in any bad way. I feel like our lives should be at peace and joyful and thats why the lord delivered me and set me free as a eagle. HAPPY!
Because the true love of my Life is being prepared for me and I'll be waiting and learning and raising me and Gods soilders.
Don't go for looks, they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile.
There are moments in life
when you really miss someone
that you want to pick them up
from your dreams and hug them.
Hope you dream of that someone.
Dream what you want to dream,
go where you want to go,
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want in life.
May you have...
Enough happiness to make you sweet
Enough trials to make you strong
Enough sorrow to keep you human
Enough hope to make you happy
And enough money to buy gifts.
When one door of happiness closes, another opens.
But we often took so long at the closed door,
that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the one
you could sit on a porch, swing with,
never saying a word and then walk away feeling
like that was the best conversation you've had.
It's true that we don't know
what we've got until we lose it,
but it's also true that we don't know what
we've been missing until it arrives.
Always put yourself in other's shoes.
If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably does hurt the person too.
A careless word may kindle a strife;
A cruel word may wreck a life
A timely word may level stress
A lovely word may heal and bless.
The beginning of love is to let those we love
be perfectly themselves and
not to twist them with our own image,
otherwise we love only the reflection
of ourselves we find in them.
The happiest people don't necessarily
have the best of everything,
they just make the most of everything
that comes along the way.
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people
before meeting the right one so that
when we finally meet the right person,
we should know how to be grateful for that gift.
It takes a minute to have a crush on someone,
an hour to like someone and a day to love someone
- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Happiness lies for those who cry,
those who hurt,
those who have searched
and those who have tried.
For only they can appreciate the importance
of people who have touched their lives.
Love is when you take away the feeling,
the passion, the romance
and find out you still care for that person.
A sad thing about life is that when you meet
someone who means a lot to you
only to find out in the end that it was never
bound to be and you just have to let go.
Love starts with a smile,
develops with a kiss
and ends with a tear.
Love comes to those who still hope
even though they've been disappointed,
to those who still believe
even though they've been betrayed,
need to love those who still love,
even though they've been hurt before.
It hurts to love someone,
and not to be loved in return
but what is most painful is to love someone
and never finds the courage
to let the person know how you feel.
The brightest future will always
be based on a forgotten past.
You can't go on well in life until you let go
of your past failures and heartaches.
Never say goodbye when you still want to try;
Never give up when you still feel you can take it;
Never say you don't love that person anymore
when you can't let go.
Giving someone all your love
is never an assurance that they'll love you back.
Don't expect love in return,
just wait for it to grow in their hearts
but if it doesn't,
be content it grew in yours.
There are things you love to hear
but you would never hear it from
the person whom you would like to hear it from,
but don't be deaf to hear it from the person
who says it with his heart.
When you were born, you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life to the fullest so that when you die,
you're smiling and everyone around you is crying.

just remember that your spouse is not your enemy,satan has held your spouse captive,for god makes all things beautiful in his time not according to our time
this is something that i got i got when i began standing firm in the lord for my marriage,hope and pray this would be of great encouragement for you
A Standers Affirmation
I AM STANDING FOR THE HEALING OF MY MARRIAGE!... I will not give up,
give in, give out or give over 'til that healing takes place. I made a vow, I said the words,
I gave the pledge, I gave a ring, I took a ring, I gave myself, I trusted GOD, and said the
words, and meant the words... in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, for better or
for worse, for richer or for poorer, in good times and in bad...so I am standing NOW, and
will not sit down, let down, slow down, calm down, fall down, look down or be down 'til
the breakdown is torn down!
I refuse to put my eyes on outward circumstances, or listen to prophets of doom, or buy
into what is trendy, worldly, popular, convenient, easy, quick, thrifty, or advantageous...
nor will I settle for a cheap imitation of God's real thing, nor will I seek to lower God's
standard, twist God's will, rewrite God's word, violate God's covenant, or accept what
God hates, namely divorce!
In a world of filth, I will stay pure; surrounded by lies I will speak the truth; where
hopelessness abounds, I will hope in God: where revenge is easier, I will bless instead of
curse; and where the odds are stacked against me, I will trust in God's faithfulness.
I am a STANDER, and I will not acquiesce, compromise, quarrel or quit.. I have made
the choice, set my face, entered the race, believed the Word, and trusted God for all the
outcome.
I will allow neither the reaction of my spouse, nor the urging of my friends, nor the
advice of my loved ones, nor economic hardship, nor the prompting of the devil to make
me let up, slow up, blow up, or give up 'til my marriage is healed.
just recieved an email and i thought that i should sher it with you
It Is Hard For A Prodigal When -
Nothing I say or do seems to shock or upset you.
"I forgive you" is uttered as often as my name.
"Don't worry about it" is your answer to everything I have done.
You let me talk about you-know-who and you just smile.
I see you growing spiritually when I am living in sin.
You build me up to our kids so they still love me.
You have zipped your lips.
You are content living with almost nothing.
You agree to anything and everything I ask.
You depend on Jesus, and not on me, to be your provider.
I can't push your buttons like I once did.
You make it impossible for me to hate you, or even to dislike you.
You seem to remember all the things I like.
You remind me that you will be waiting until you die.
I know the home I left could always be my refuge from the storms
of life.
I suspect everyone is reminding you how I will never change, and
adding how old dogs don't learn new tricks. I am not a dog and I
am not out to learn tricks. I set out to be happy without you,
but every time you show me unconditional love, instead of anger
and attempting to get even, something is being changed in my
heart, one small bit at a time.
People are also probably telling you not to be a doormat for me,
but they have it all wrong. You are not being a door mat, but a
welcome home mat.

These words are being written at 6 AM. Charlyne will find them
on her vanity as a good morning greeting. How do I know all
those things wayward spouses say? Sadly, they have each been
uttered in our home. Today, as you prepare to face another day
without your spouse serving the Lord look through the eyes of
faith at the morning note your mate will leave you, in God's
timing.

There's Power In The Name Of Jesus! -
"Be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ." Ephesians 5:18b-21 Do you know the power there is in the Name of Jesus? May we never forget that God sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to save His people from their sins.
This is a very important fact for you to know as you stand for the healing and restoration of your marriage. You need to know that there is only One person who can rescue and save your spouse and His Name is Jesus. The next hindrance that we are going to learn on the Lord's Day is not praying in Jesus' Name. Jesus taught His disciples to use His name. "I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.
You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it." John 14:12-14 Do you know the power in the Name of Jesus? When you do not know what else to pray and you are hurting from the pain of separation or divorce cry out saying the name, "Jesus." If you are feeling weary, tired, discouraged, or distressed, say the name, "Jesus." He will hear your cry and meet your needs.
Every day pray short and long prayers as regularly as you eat. There is such power, healing and deliverance praying in the name of "Jesus." "You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit--fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name." John 15:16 These scriptures are very powerful when you read them by themselves.
I encourage you to do your homework and read all the additional scriptures that I have listed. The secret to having prayers answered is remaining "in Christ." The closer you and I live loving and serving our Lord and Savior through prayer, studying scriptures, and worshiping Him, the more our prayers will be in alignment with His person, His character, His will, His nature and according to the powerful words of the Jesus Christ. Then our prayers will be more effective when we pray because we are being sensitive to the Holy Spirit and wanting to serve and pray for others as the Lord taught His disciples.
Today as we go and worship the Lord may you pray two scriptures with your husband or wife's name in them. I pray that you have already started praying your spouse's name in scripture. There is such power in praying God's Word with your husband, wife or child's name in them. Remember that God's Word will not return void. (Isaiah 55:11) May you pray for your beloved spouse and lift up all prodigals, as we all pray in agreement and in unity in the mighty Name of Jesus.
"I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'" Acts 26:17-18 "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call." Acts 2:38-39 Let me share how one day when Peter and John were going into the temple at the time of prayer how they shared the power of their Lord Jesus. You and I must be willing to be used every day sharing the love and power of our Lord Jesus Christ and proclaiming that God can heal and resurrect hurting and dead marriages.
"One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.
Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!" So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you.
In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk." Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. When all the people saw him walking and praising God, they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him." Acts 3:1-10 Then Peter continues to speak to all the people who saw the beggar jumping up and down, praising God.
"You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this. By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him, as you can all see." Acts 3:15-16 Are you trusting in your Lord? Jesus Christ has all your answers, if you call on the Name of Jesus. Today, examine your heart. Whom are you trusting in each day, yourself or in Jesus Christ? When Jesus walked on this earth, He did many miracles, raised people from the dead, healed the sick, lame, the blind, and He delivered people from demons.
You and I must never forget that your spouse needs to be delivered or set free from the sins that they have been involved in. Your Lord Jesus Christ is able to set free anyone from the addiction of pornography, sexual immorality, alcohol, drugs or gambling, hardness of heart, or unforgiveness. Nothing is too hard for your Lord Jesus.
When you write and tell us of your circumstances, I want to cry out to you and say, "Call on the Name of Jesus. He is the only One that can change your life. He is the only One who can set your spouse free." If Jesus does not do it the day that you want, then remember the story of Mary and Martha who had to wait for the best friend, Jesus to heal Lazarus who was very sick, but Jesus was late and Lazarus died, but JESUS, raised him from the dead. Your Lord Jesus Christ will raise and heal your dead marriage from the dead, IF you keep calling on the Name of Jesus walking in faith and victory. Never give up on your Lord Jesus Christ. What is a better alternative? Whom are you going to serve?
There is victory in the Name of Jesus and Satan will have to flee! May I share the lyrics of the chorus,"In The Name Of Jesus:" In the name of Jesus, In the name of Jesus, We have the victory; In the name of Jesus, In the name of Jesus, Satan will have to flee; Tell me who will stand before us, When we call on that great name. Jesus, Jesus; Precious Jesus; We have the victory!(Author Unknown - Used by Permission CCLI #1273562) What powerful words for you and me to learn to sing. We need to call on that great Name to save us from all the enemies' darts. Satan is defeated and is trying to give us fear and anxiety due to many of our circumstances, but our Lord Jesus is greater than any other problem. Turn to your Lord Jesus and trust in His mighty power. Never forget that Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord came down to earth to shed His Blood for all sinners! Remember, every knee will bow down to Jesus. Now start calling on the powerful Name of Jesus!
"Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Philippians 2:9-11
Homework:Look up additional scriptures: Matthew 1:21; Mark 9:38-40; John 20:30-31; Acts 4:15-22; Acts 5:17-41; Acts 15:25-27; Acts 16:16-34; Acts 21:12-14; I Corinthians 1:1-3,10; I Corinthians 6:9- 11; Colossians 3:16-18; 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12; 2 Thessalonians 3:5-7; I John 3:21-24.
Hello my Dear heart I hope all is well with you. I thank you for inviting me into your world as well and I do hope to conversing with you! May the good Lord going to be a blessing to you and your ministry. I love you with the love of Jesus
Hello my Blessed & Highly favored Sister,
How are you doing. Your page has changed! I like what you did with the place. LOL! Your quote about the jars of oil especially bless me! Whoo Hoo! Thank you Jesus! Be very blessed this day! (in Jesus Name.)
A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband.
For many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom,
and knowing her husband could afford it, she told him that was all she
wanted.
As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husband
had purchased the diamond ring.
Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his study.
Her husband told her how proud he was to have such a good wife, and told her how much he loved her.
He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift box.
Curious, the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible,
with the wife's name embossed in gold.
Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, 'With all your
money you give me a Bible?' And stormed out of the house, leaving her
husband.
Many years passed and the lady was very successful in business. She
managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,
but realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps she
should go to visit him. She had not seen him for many years.
But before she could make arrangements, she received a telegram
telling her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willed
all of his possessions to her. She needed to come back immediately
and take care of things.
When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness and
regret filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband's
important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it
years before.
With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Her
ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11,
'And if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more shall your Heavenly Father, who is in heaven,
give what is good to those who ask Him?'
As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of
the Bible. It had a diamond ring, with her name engraved on it --
the same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom.
On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words.'LUV U ALWAYS'.
How many times do we miss God's blessings, because they are not
packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this.
Do not spoil what you have, by desiring what you have not; but remember
that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKAGED THE WAY YOU WANT IT,
IT'S BECAUSE IT IS BETTER PACKAGED THE WAY IT IS.
ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS;
THEY USUALLY LEAD YOU TO BIGGER & BETTER THINGS.
'The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart.'
WHY WE NEED THE HOLY SPIRIT
Jesus promised the disciples that they will be baptized with the Holy Spirit. So it came to Passed that the Holy Spirit came upon them as He promised in the book of acts 2:4. it is also written in the book of Acts 2:38 to 39( quoting verse 39, the promise is for you ,your children and for all who are far off______ for all whom the Lord God will call).Meaning that every Christian need the Holy Spirit for specific task. The bible says we should not be drunkard but we must be filled with the holy Spirit. You can read that in the book of Ephesians 5:18.Why we must not be drunkard? The answer is simple, the Holy Spirit is more powerful than alcoholic drink.He can do more for us than �alcoholic spirit� Let us look at the things the Holy Spirit can do for us.
The Holy Ghost always makes us to be committed. When truly the Holy Ghost is in you, you will devote everything about you to the Lord Jesus. You will give your whole life to Christ. That is why the bible says that the life that we Christians lived, it is no more we that lived but Jesus lived in us. Christians do not need alcoholic drink just as the people of the world need it to be committed to what ever they do. I don�t know whether you have seen a drunkard before but let me tell you, they are committed to alcoholic drinks. If they wake up in the morning, the first thing they think of is where they can get some drink to take. They put all their hope on drinking alcohol. So you see, a good Christian have to put his or she hope in Christ Jesus every time. Remember that what is in you is greater than alcohol. If you have been to Africa, you would have known the real drunkard. They are very committed. We have to do more than these worldly people. We must be committed to our Lord Jesus Christ.
When one is full of the Holy Spirit, HE NEVER GETS WORRY ABOUT THINGS OF THIS WORLD. Just ask the bible says in the book of Matthew 6:25 �Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is life not more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?� Learn how to be happy with what you have, God knows what is good for you and at the right time he will provide. The Holy Spirit that is in you will help you not to border about things that perish. Let me briefly tell you something about my life since my infancy. I was a child when my father divorce my mother because of the faith, but my mother never gives up. We passed through a lot of problems but my mother hold firm to the faith. Sometimes what to eat was a problem for us. As the day went on, things started to change through the Holy Spirit. When I grown up, I still face difficulty, just us my mother taught me, I never get worry. I know it shall be well with me one day. I always comfort myself that after all I have something special within me that can change my situation.
So to be frank, worldly people like drunkard never get worry. All that they think about is their drink and how they can get access to one before they go to sleep. They don�t border about the clothes that they put on. In Africa, drunkards can wear the same cloth for more than one month and they never get worry. Some so called Christian sometimes, say today I don�t have new panties so I can not go to church. When the Holy Spirit is in you, you will never bother. What ever you have, you will only press it well and wear it to church. Truly our God is pure and it is not good to wear filthy clothes to church. All the time, be happy about what you have.
The Holy Spirit brings unity among brethren. We are one body and we have one spirit that controls us. This brings about the love that the Lord expects from us for each other. Allowing ourselves to be fill with the Holy Spirit, brings unity and love ( real love and unity).on the other side, drunkards are the most united people of the world. When one drunkard get drinks, he or she invite the rest of them to partake, even though they fight and quarrel, they do things together. How much more we that have the Holy Spirit, we do more than them because we have the true spirit. When the Holy Ghost came upon the first Disciples of Christ, they do almost everything together.
When the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will be GENEROUS (someone that gives freely).If we read our bible well, peter was �disgrace� at the gate of beautiful when the crippled beggar as him for money (even though, the name of Jesus was glorified through the Holy Spirit). Although the crippled was healed, there was nothing in Peter�s pocket. So when he came to the congregation, the Holy Ghost changed the situation so that no needy person was found among them again. When He is upon you, you can easily give. People find it difficult to give or help the needy ones because the Holy Spirit is not in them. If you come to Africa or go to other continents, you will know how people need help (I mean suffering, we that go to the villages we see things for ourselves).
DRUNKARDS always give. They can give more than necessary and why can�t we that are filled with the Holy Spirit not give. Let HIM control you�re given.
When the Holy Spirit is upon you, you will be BOLD just as HE came upon peter and Peter became boldly. You can read that in the book of Acts 2:38, drunkards are always bold. Let me assure that most people drink because they want to be bold but we Christian don�t need �physical drink� to be bold, the Holy Spirit is more than alcoholic drink. HE makes us bold in every area.
You will always have a SOUND MIND when HE is upon you. Don�t have negative taught about people. The Holy Spirit let us into all truth. It makes us free within our bodies. In Africa here, drunkards are free they only concentrate on their drinks. We Christians have to talk about Jesus every day, because that is the greatest commission the LORD has instructed us.
When the Holy Spirit is upon someone, he or she can takes �hot staff� (face difficult problems).Never run from battle field because what is in him or her is greater than what is in the world. He or She shall surely over come. Things that are impossible for people will be possible for you. As for Drunkards, people that they can not beat them they claim that they will beat them, How much more we that have the power above all powers. Remember David and Goliath.
The Holy Spirit helps us to be LOYALTY, to become someone who always gives support or defend the faith. Drunkard are always support those that provide them with drinks. We Christian have to support our faith where ever we are and preach the word of God.
The holy spirit help us to walk with faith and we don�t fear danger, all that we know is that it came by itself and it shall go but itself. Forward ever, backwards never. Drunkards also walk by faith, whether there is whole or not they find their way home. What about us? We do more than them.
The Holy Spirit will help you NEVER TO GIVE UP. In all situations you will stand firm. DRUNKARDS are troublesome and they never give up. We are always in the �high spirit� to face every problem that comes Christians are not trouble some.
To be simple and precise, without the holy ghost one can not enter into the kingdom God: so we need HIM to be; COMMITED, NEVER WORRY ABOUT THINGS OF THIS WORLD, TO GIVE GENEROULY,TO BE BOLD,TO HAVE SOUND MIND, TO FACE EVERY DIFFICULTY THAT COMES OUR WAYS,TO BE LOYALTY TO OUR LORD,TO WALK BY FAITH AND SO THAT WE CAN NEVER GIVE UP.

The storms of our life
Prove the strength of our anchor…..
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine
and puts them into practice is like a wise man
who built his house on the rock.- Matt.7:24
Living for the Lord,serving Him each day,
Best prepares the soul for the stormy way;
Then as trials come,tempting to despair,
We can rest secure,safe within His care.
I am being made aware that Jesus is coming sooner than many think. Many will not be ready for His return. We need to be ready, wise virgins, keeping oil in our lamps.
With much love in Christ: Christy Gabriel B
I am being made aware that Jesus is coming sooner than many think. Many will not be ready for His return. We need to be ready, wise virgins, keeping oil in our lamps.
Please do keep on praying for the request of mine down below, and I know I can count on you to do it:
Please "WIN the 10/40 WINDOWS" for JESUS CHRIST.
The 10/40 Windows (located between 10 - 40 degrees North of Equator - between West Africa to East Asia) need Missionaries, have no church at all, and there live about 40 percent of the world population. INDONESIA, my country is in the 10-40 windows though we have churches. Please also pray for ISRAEL and all over the world. Let's get on our knees, praying hand in hand with me for their revival. I look forward to the day when the Lord who I kneel to worship will be recognized by all the living and the dead as the One True Lord.
Thank you so very much

Don't go for looks, they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile.
There are moments in life
when you really miss someone
that you want to pick them up
from your dreams and hug them.
Hope you dream of that someone.
Dream what you want to dream,
go where you want to go,
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want in life.
May you have...
Enough happiness to make you sweet
Enough trials to make you strong
Enough sorrow to keep you human
Enough hope to make you happy
And enough money to buy gifts.
When one door of happiness closes, another opens.
But we often took so long at the closed door,
that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the one
you could sit on a porch, swing with,
never saying a word and then walk away feeling
like that was the best conversation you've had.
It's true that we don't know
what we've got until we lose it,
but it's also true that we don't know what
we've been missing until it arrives.
Always put yourself in other's shoes.
If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably does hurt the person too.
A careless word may kindle a strife;
A cruel word may wreck a life
A timely word may level stress
A lovely word may heal and bless.
The beginning of love is to let those we love
be perfectly themselves and
not to twist them with our own image,
otherwise we love only the reflection
of ourselves we find in them.
The happiest people don't necessarily
have the best of everything,
they just make the most of everything
that comes along the way.
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people
before meeting the right one so that
when we finally meet the right person,
we should know how to be grateful for that gift.
It takes a minute to have a crush on someone,
an hour to like someone and a day to love someone
- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Happiness lies for those who cry,
those who hurt,
those who have searched
and those who have tried.
For only they can appreciate the importance
of people who have touched their lives.
Love is when you take away the feeling,
the passion, the romance
and find out you still care for that person.
A sad thing about life is that when you meet
someone who means a lot to you
only to find out in the end that it was never
bound to be and you just have to let go.
Love starts with a smile,
develops with a kiss
and ends with a tear.
Love comes to those who still hope
even though they've been disappointed,
to those who still believe
even though they've been betrayed,
need to love those who still love,
even though they've been hurt before.
It hurts to love someone,
and not to be loved in return
but what is most painful is to love someone
and never finds the courage
to let the person know how you feel.
The brightest future will always
be based on a forgotten past.
You can't go on well in life until you let go
of your past failures and heartaches.
Never say goodbye when you still want to try;
Never give up when you still feel you can take it;
Never say you don't love that person anymore
when you can't let go.
Giving someone all your love
is never an assurance that they'll love you back.
Don't expect love in return,
just wait for it to grow in their hearts
but if it doesn't,
be content it grew in yours.
There are things you love to hear
but you would never hear it from
the person whom you would like to hear it from,
but don't be deaf to hear it from the person
who says it with his heart.
When you were born, you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life to the fullest so that when you die,
you're smiling and everyone around you is crying.

just remember that your spouse is not your enemy,satan has held your spouse captive,for god makes all things beautiful in his time not according to our time
this is something that i got i got when i began standing firm in the lord for my marriage,hope and pray this would be of great encouragement for you
A Standers Affirmation
I AM STANDING FOR THE HEALING OF MY MARRIAGE!... I will not give up,
give in, give out or give over 'til that healing takes place. I made a vow, I said the words,
I gave the pledge, I gave a ring, I took a ring, I gave myself, I trusted GOD, and said the
words, and meant the words... in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, for better or
for worse, for richer or for poorer, in good times and in bad...so I am standing NOW, and
will not sit down, let down, slow down, calm down, fall down, look down or be down 'til
the breakdown is torn down!
I refuse to put my eyes on outward circumstances, or listen to prophets of doom, or buy
into what is trendy, worldly, popular, convenient, easy, quick, thrifty, or advantageous...
nor will I settle for a cheap imitation of God's real thing, nor will I seek to lower God's
standard, twist God's will, rewrite God's word, violate God's covenant, or accept what
God hates, namely divorce!
In a world of filth, I will stay pure; surrounded by lies I will speak the truth; where
hopelessness abounds, I will hope in God: where revenge is easier, I will bless instead of
curse; and where the odds are stacked against me, I will trust in God's faithfulness.
I am a STANDER, and I will not acquiesce, compromise, quarrel or quit.. I have made
the choice, set my face, entered the race, believed the Word, and trusted God for all the
outcome.
I will allow neither the reaction of my spouse, nor the urging of my friends, nor the
advice of my loved ones, nor economic hardship, nor the prompting of the devil to make
me let up, slow up, blow up, or give up 'til my marriage is healed.
God bless

It Is Hard For A Prodigal When -
Nothing I say or do seems to shock or upset you.
"I forgive you" is uttered as often as my name.
"Don't worry about it" is your answer to everything I have done.
You let me talk about you-know-who and you just smile.
I see you growing spiritually when I am living in sin.
You build me up to our kids so they still love me.
You have zipped your lips.
You are content living with almost nothing.
You agree to anything and everything I ask.
You depend on Jesus, and not on me, to be your provider.
I can't push your buttons like I once did.
You make it impossible for me to hate you, or even to dislike you.
You seem to remember all the things I like.
You remind me that you will be waiting until you die.
I know the home I left could always be my refuge from the storms
of life.
I suspect everyone is reminding you how I will never change, and
adding how old dogs don't learn new tricks. I am not a dog and I
am not out to learn tricks. I set out to be happy without you,
but every time you show me unconditional love, instead of anger
and attempting to get even, something is being changed in my
heart, one small bit at a time.
People are also probably telling you not to be a doormat for me,
but they have it all wrong. You are not being a door mat, but a
welcome home mat.
The prodigal said:
"I never loved you."
The Lord said:
"I have loved you with an everlasting love." (Jeremiah 31:3)
The prodigal said:
"You never satisfied me."
The Lord said:
"You open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living
thing." (Psalm 145:16)
The prodigal said:
"I am never coming back."
The Lord said:
"He who goes out weeping carrying seed to sow, will return
with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him." (Psalm 126:6)
The prodigal said:
"Stop praying for me!"
The Lord said:
"Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat
you." (Luke 6:28)
The prodigal said:
"I hate you."
The Lord said:
"Everyone who does evil hates the light for fear that his
deeds will be exposed." (John 3:20)
The prodigal said:
"You act so holy."
The Lord said:
"For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy
life." (I Thessanlonians 4:7)
The prodigal said:
"You are a hypocrite."
The Lord said:
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged." (Matthew 7:1)
The prodigal said:
"I don't know what to do."
The Lord said:
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, and I will make you fishers
of men." (Mark 1:17)
These words are being written at 6 AM. Charlyne will find them
on her vanity as a good morning greeting. How do I know all
those things wayward spouses say? Sadly, they have each been
uttered in our home. Today, as you prepare to face another day
without your spouse serving the Lord look through the eyes of
faith at the morning note your mate will leave you, in God's
timing.
Because He lives,I can also live

- Galatians 5:16
Our society sends many conflicting messages;
the Bible does not.
The Word of God tells us not to listen to our lusts
but to follow God's way,
depending fully on the Spirit(Gal 5:16).
If we do that, we will not live the anxiety that results from
following mixed signals....
God's signals are meant for our protection,correction and direction.....
Present your life to God today,
Give Him your all without delay;
You'll know true joy and gladly say,
"I've found the way to live!"
try to do these my friend.. en be a great living epistle to each en everyone in this site...God bless u all....

There's Power In The Name Of Jesus! -
"Be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ." Ephesians 5:18b-21 Do you know the power there is in the Name of Jesus? May we never forget that God sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to save His people from their sins.
This is a very important fact for you to know as you stand for the healing and restoration of your marriage. You need to know that there is only One person who can rescue and save your spouse and His Name is Jesus. The next hindrance that we are going to learn on the Lord's Day is not praying in Jesus' Name. Jesus taught His disciples to use His name. "I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.
You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it." John 14:12-14 Do you know the power in the Name of Jesus? When you do not know what else to pray and you are hurting from the pain of separation or divorce cry out saying the name, "Jesus." If you are feeling weary, tired, discouraged, or distressed, say the name, "Jesus." He will hear your cry and meet your needs.
Every day pray short and long prayers as regularly as you eat. There is such power, healing and deliverance praying in the name of "Jesus." "You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit--fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name." John 15:16 These scriptures are very powerful when you read them by themselves.
I encourage you to do your homework and read all the additional scriptures that I have listed. The secret to having prayers answered is remaining "in Christ." The closer you and I live loving and serving our Lord and Savior through prayer, studying scriptures, and worshiping Him, the more our prayers will be in alignment with His person, His character, His will, His nature and according to the powerful words of the Jesus Christ. Then our prayers will be more effective when we pray because we are being sensitive to the Holy Spirit and wanting to serve and pray for others as the Lord taught His disciples.
Today as we go and worship the Lord may you pray two scriptures with your husband or wife's name in them. I pray that you have already started praying your spouse's name in scripture. There is such power in praying God's Word with your husband, wife or child's name in them. Remember that God's Word will not return void. (Isaiah 55:11) May you pray for your beloved spouse and lift up all prodigals, as we all pray in agreement and in unity in the mighty Name of Jesus.
"I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'" Acts 26:17-18 "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call." Acts 2:38-39 Let me share how one day when Peter and John were going into the temple at the time of prayer how they shared the power of their Lord Jesus. You and I must be willing to be used every day sharing the love and power of our Lord Jesus Christ and proclaiming that God can heal and resurrect hurting and dead marriages.
"One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.
Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!" So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you.
In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk." Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. When all the people saw him walking and praising God, they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him." Acts 3:1-10 Then Peter continues to speak to all the people who saw the beggar jumping up and down, praising God.
"You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this. By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him, as you can all see." Acts 3:15-16 Are you trusting in your Lord? Jesus Christ has all your answers, if you call on the Name of Jesus. Today, examine your heart. Whom are you trusting in each day, yourself or in Jesus Christ? When Jesus walked on this earth, He did many miracles, raised people from the dead, healed the sick, lame, the blind, and He delivered people from demons.
You and I must never forget that your spouse needs to be delivered or set free from the sins that they have been involved in. Your Lord Jesus Christ is able to set free anyone from the addiction of pornography, sexual immorality, alcohol, drugs or gambling, hardness of heart, or unforgiveness. Nothing is too hard for your Lord Jesus.
When you write and tell us of your circumstances, I want to cry out to you and say, "Call on the Name of Jesus. He is the only One that can change your life. He is the only One who can set your spouse free." If Jesus does not do it the day that you want, then remember the story of Mary and Martha who had to wait for the best friend, Jesus to heal Lazarus who was very sick, but Jesus was late and Lazarus died, but JESUS, raised him from the dead. Your Lord Jesus Christ will raise and heal your dead marriage from the dead, IF you keep calling on the Name of Jesus walking in faith and victory. Never give up on your Lord Jesus Christ. What is a better alternative? Whom are you going to serve?
There is victory in the Name of Jesus and Satan will have to flee! May I share the lyrics of the chorus,"In The Name Of Jesus:" In the name of Jesus, In the name of Jesus, We have the victory; In the name of Jesus, In the name of Jesus, Satan will have to flee; Tell me who will stand before us, When we call on that great name. Jesus, Jesus; Precious Jesus; We have the victory!(Author Unknown - Used by Permission CCLI #1273562) What powerful words for you and me to learn to sing. We need to call on that great Name to save us from all the enemies' darts. Satan is defeated and is trying to give us fear and anxiety due to many of our circumstances, but our Lord Jesus is greater than any other problem. Turn to your Lord Jesus and trust in His mighty power. Never forget that Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord came down to earth to shed His Blood for all sinners! Remember, every knee will bow down to Jesus. Now start calling on the powerful Name of Jesus!
"Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Philippians 2:9-11
Homework:Look up additional scriptures: Matthew 1:21; Mark 9:38-40; John 20:30-31; Acts 4:15-22; Acts 5:17-41; Acts 15:25-27; Acts 16:16-34; Acts 21:12-14; I Corinthians 1:1-3,10; I Corinthians 6:9- 11; Colossians 3:16-18; 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12; 2 Thessalonians 3:5-7; I John 3:21-24.

A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband.
For many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom,
and knowing her husband could afford it, she told him that was all she
wanted.
As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husband
had purchased the diamond ring.
Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his study.
Her husband told her how proud he was to have such a good wife, and told her how much he loved her.
He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift box.
Curious, the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible,
with the wife's name embossed in gold.
Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, 'With all your
money you give me a Bible?' And stormed out of the house, leaving her
husband.
Many years passed and the lady was very successful in business. She
managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,
but realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps she
should go to visit him. She had not seen him for many years.
But before she could make arrangements, she received a telegram
telling her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willed
all of his possessions to her. She needed to come back immediately
and take care of things.
When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness and
regret filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband's
important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it
years before.
With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Her
ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11,
'And if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more shall your Heavenly Father, who is in heaven,
give what is good to those who ask Him?'
As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of
the Bible. It had a diamond ring, with her name engraved on it --
the same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom.
On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words.'LUV U ALWAYS'.
How many times do we miss God's blessings, because they are not
packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this.
Do not spoil what you have, by desiring what you have not; but remember
that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKAGED THE WAY YOU WANT IT,
IT'S BECAUSE IT IS BETTER PACKAGED THE WAY IT IS.
ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS;
THEY USUALLY LEAD YOU TO BIGGER & BETTER THINGS.
'The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart.'
HAVE A GREAT DAY

Jesus promised the disciples that they will be baptized with the Holy Spirit. So it came to Passed that the Holy Spirit came upon them as He promised in the book of acts 2:4. it is also written in the book of Acts 2:38 to 39( quoting verse 39, the promise is for you ,your children and for all who are far off______ for all whom the Lord God will call).Meaning that every Christian need the Holy Spirit for specific task. The bible says we should not be drunkard but we must be filled with the holy Spirit. You can read that in the book of Ephesians 5:18.Why we must not be drunkard? The answer is simple, the Holy Spirit is more powerful than alcoholic drink.He can do more for us than �alcoholic spirit� Let us look at the things the Holy Spirit can do for us.
The Holy Ghost always makes us to be committed. When truly the Holy Ghost is in you, you will devote everything about you to the Lord Jesus. You will give your whole life to Christ. That is why the bible says that the life that we Christians lived, it is no more we that lived but Jesus lived in us. Christians do not need alcoholic drink just as the people of the world need it to be committed to what ever they do. I don�t know whether you have seen a drunkard before but let me tell you, they are committed to alcoholic drinks. If they wake up in the morning, the first thing they think of is where they can get some drink to take. They put all their hope on drinking alcohol. So you see, a good Christian have to put his or she hope in Christ Jesus every time. Remember that what is in you is greater than alcohol. If you have been to Africa, you would have known the real drunkard. They are very committed. We have to do more than these worldly people. We must be committed to our Lord Jesus Christ.
When one is full of the Holy Spirit, HE NEVER GETS WORRY ABOUT THINGS OF THIS WORLD. Just ask the bible says in the book of Matthew 6:25 �Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is life not more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?� Learn how to be happy with what you have, God knows what is good for you and at the right time he will provide. The Holy Spirit that is in you will help you not to border about things that perish. Let me briefly tell you something about my life since my infancy. I was a child when my father divorce my mother because of the faith, but my mother never gives up. We passed through a lot of problems but my mother hold firm to the faith. Sometimes what to eat was a problem for us. As the day went on, things started to change through the Holy Spirit. When I grown up, I still face difficulty, just us my mother taught me, I never get worry. I know it shall be well with me one day. I always comfort myself that after all I have something special within me that can change my situation.
So to be frank, worldly people like drunkard never get worry. All that they think about is their drink and how they can get access to one before they go to sleep. They don�t border about the clothes that they put on. In Africa, drunkards can wear the same cloth for more than one month and they never get worry. Some so called Christian sometimes, say today I don�t have new panties so I can not go to church. When the Holy Spirit is in you, you will never bother. What ever you have, you will only press it well and wear it to church. Truly our God is pure and it is not good to wear filthy clothes to church. All the time, be happy about what you have.
The Holy Spirit brings unity among brethren. We are one body and we have one spirit that controls us. This brings about the love that the Lord expects from us for each other. Allowing ourselves to be fill with the Holy Spirit, brings unity and love ( real love and unity).on the other side, drunkards are the most united people of the world. When one drunkard get drinks, he or she invite the rest of them to partake, even though they fight and quarrel, they do things together. How much more we that have the Holy Spirit, we do more than them because we have the true spirit. When the Holy Ghost came upon the first Disciples of Christ, they do almost everything together.
When the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will be GENEROUS (someone that gives freely).If we read our bible well, peter was �disgrace� at the gate of beautiful when the crippled beggar as him for money (even though, the name of Jesus was glorified through the Holy Spirit). Although the crippled was healed, there was nothing in Peter�s pocket. So when he came to the congregation, the Holy Ghost changed the situation so that no needy person was found among them again. When He is upon you, you can easily give. People find it difficult to give or help the needy ones because the Holy Spirit is not in them. If you come to Africa or go to other continents, you will know how people need help (I mean suffering, we that go to the villages we see things for ourselves).
DRUNKARDS always give. They can give more than necessary and why can�t we that are filled with the Holy Spirit not give. Let HIM control you�re given.
When the Holy Spirit is upon you, you will be BOLD just as HE came upon peter and Peter became boldly. You can read that in the book of Acts 2:38, drunkards are always bold. Let me assure that most people drink because they want to be bold but we Christian don�t need �physical drink� to be bold, the Holy Spirit is more than alcoholic drink. HE makes us bold in every area.
You will always have a SOUND MIND when HE is upon you. Don�t have negative taught about people. The Holy Spirit let us into all truth. It makes us free within our bodies. In Africa here, drunkards are free they only concentrate on their drinks. We Christians have to talk about Jesus every day, because that is the greatest commission the LORD has instructed us.
When the Holy Spirit is upon someone, he or she can takes �hot staff� (face difficult problems).Never run from battle field because what is in him or her is greater than what is in the world. He or She shall surely over come. Things that are impossible for people will be possible for you. As for Drunkards, people that they can not beat them they claim that they will beat them, How much more we that have the power above all powers. Remember David and Goliath.
The Holy Spirit helps us to be LOYALTY, to become someone who always gives support or defend the faith. Drunkard are always support those that provide them with drinks. We Christian have to support our faith where ever we are and preach the word of God.
The holy spirit help us to walk with faith and we don�t fear danger, all that we know is that it came by itself and it shall go but itself. Forward ever, backwards never. Drunkards also walk by faith, whether there is whole or not they find their way home. What about us? We do more than them.
The Holy Spirit will help you NEVER TO GIVE UP. In all situations you will stand firm. DRUNKARDS are troublesome and they never give up. We are always in the �high spirit� to face every problem that comes Christians are not trouble some.
To be simple and precise, without the holy ghost one can not enter into the kingdom God: so we need HIM to be; COMMITED, NEVER WORRY ABOUT THINGS OF THIS WORLD, TO GIVE GENEROULY,TO BE BOLD,TO HAVE SOUND MIND, TO FACE EVERY DIFFICULTY THAT COMES OUR WAYS,TO BE LOYALTY TO OUR LORD,TO WALK BY FAITH AND SO THAT WE CAN NEVER GIVE UP.

Prove the strength of our anchor…..
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine
and puts them into practice is like a wise man
who built his house on the rock.- Matt.7:24
Living for the Lord,serving Him each day,
Best prepares the soul for the stormy way;
Then as trials come,tempting to despair,
We can rest secure,safe within His care.
God bless u my dear friend....

Please do keep on praying for the request of mine down below, and I know I can count on you to do it:
Please "WIN the 10/40 WINDOWS" for JESUS CHRIST.
The 10/40 Windows (located between 10 - 40 degrees North of Equator - between West Africa to East Asia) need Missionaries, have no church at all, and there live about 40 percent of the world population. INDONESIA, my country is in the 10-40 windows though we have churches. Please also pray for ISRAEL and all over the world. Let's get on our knees, praying hand in hand with me for their revival. I look forward to the day when the Lord who I kneel to worship will be recognized by all the living and the dead as the One True Lord.
Thank you so very much
With love in Christ: Christy Gabriel B
