ARE YOU PLEASING PEOPE OR ARE YOU PLEASING GOD?

Do you realize that ucountable numbers of people are anxious to
Please the Crowd instead of God?

We all know that there are people who are "born dictators" and others are "attention seekers"...

When in a position of authority they do not consider anyone's feelings... Some Governments strive to please the people despite the millions who are hurt in the process... Others cause pain and suffering because of obstinacy and a self-centred attitude, and then you realise that this is because they do not know God.
Pontius Pilate wanted to please the people. So he freed Barabbas
for them. And Pilate told the soldiers to beat Jesus with
whips. Then Pilate gave Jesus to the soldiers to be killed on
a cross. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent and yet he ignored this fact because he was trying to please the people!

-- Mark 15:15 (ERV)

Pilate knows Jesus is innocent, yet gives in totally to the wishes of
the mob -- he first has Jesus scourged ("flogged with a lead-tipped
whip") and then turns Jesus over to be crucified. Why does he do it?
Pilate has to keep Rome happy by maintaining order. To maintain order,
Pilate has to appease the crowd. Even though he has already pronounced
Jesus "not guilty" of any crime, Pilate has the final say. In his mind,
his word is law. In the eyes of the crowd, Pilate's word is law. Jesus,
however, knows that Pilate has no power to act, rule, or enforce his
verdict apart from God's granting him that power. Pilate is a puppet
who cannot recognize that he acts in concert with the crowd's will,
Rome's desire, and God's plan. Jesus is allowed to be crucified -- both
by Pilate, to appease the crowd which is being manipulated by the
religious leaders, and also by God, who is using this horrifying event
to save the world. If God can bring such a great redemption out of such
an unfair injustice, imagine what he can do with our suffering for his
sake.
Can any one of us imagine what it must take to sacrifice your child! I cannot!

TODAY'S PRAYER:
O God, you are the Almighty, the one in control even when I cannot see
Your control. Help me to understand that you will redeem every
injustice brought upon your people at your chosen time. Give me the
faith and strength to endure such times and the courage to live my life
in the hope that even if the scales of justice are not balanced in my
lifetime, they will be at the end of time. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said,
"Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like."
The Lord led the holy man to two doors.
He opened one o f the doors and the holy man looked in. In the middle of
the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a
large
pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth
water..
The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared
to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that
were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the
pot of stew and take a spoonful. But because the handle was longer than
their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.
The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.
The Lord said, "You have seen Hell."

They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same
as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of

stew which made the holy man's mouth water. The people were equipped
with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well
nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The holy man said, "I don't
understand."
It is simple," said the Lord. "It requires but one skill. You see they
have learned to feed each other, while the greedy think only of
themselves."
When Jesus died on the cross, he was thinking of you. Its estimated 93%
won't forward this. If you are one of the 7% who will, forward this
with the title "7%".

Hi Stephen,

I just wanted to stop by to say hello and properly introduce myself. I am sorry if I came across as abrubt in the forum. That is sometimes my manner...and God is slowly sanctifying me..although my flesh often gets in the way. ... Please accept my apology for my abrubtness. I am passionate about God's Word, and I just want to do my part to ensure there is no division or confusion among the body... I am going to stay out of the forum conversation unless I feel specifically lead to contribute otherwise.....for now I feel God is telling me to just make things right with you...and keep my nose out of the discussion. :)

Anyhow, May God Bless you for all that you do for Him.
Love in Christ, Carla

Hi Stephen,

I hope you are okay! I understand that the post is alot of information. I have been a Christian for just over two years, and am learning so much as I go....We all are! God will see each of us through...He who has begun a good work in us will finish it.... It is a lifelong process isn't it!?!? Slowly being Sanctified...what a sweet painful song of life!

Love in Christ, Carla

Yes...and our Individuality only Glorifies Him in all His Fullness...and even then, we're only barely scratching the surface in our understanding of how Magnificient God is! We are all ....individually made in His image...and HE brings us all together as the Body to reflect His Glorious Light! Mindboggling----and Awesome!
Love and Blessings in Christ, Carla

hello, here's a joke for you!

Attending a wedding for the first time, a little girl whispered to her mother, "Why is the bride dressed in white?''

The mother replied, "Because white is the color of happiness, and today is the happiest day of her life."

The child thought about this for a moment then said, "So why is the groom wearing black?"

here's the joke for today-

WHAT'S A CHURCH?

A well-worn one-dollar bill and a similarly distressed twenty-dollar bill arrived at a Federal Reserve Bank to be retired. As they moved along the conveyor belt to be burned, they struck up a conversation. The twenty-dollar bill reminisced about its travels all over the country.

"I've had a pretty good life," the twenty-dollar bill proclaimed. "Why I've been to Las Vegas and Atlantic City , the finest restaurants in New York , performances on Broadway, and even a cruise to the Caribbean "

"Wow!" said the one-dollar bill. "You've really had an exciting life!"

"So tell me," says the twenty-dollar bill, "where have you been throughout your lifetime?"

The one dollar bill replies, "Oh, I've been to the Methodist Church , the Baptist Church, the Lutheran Church."

The twenty-dollar bill interrupts, "What's a church?"

DEAREST FRIEND
I WISH YOU BLESSINGS AND LOVE TOO TO YOU AND YOURS. MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU IN HIS TENDER CARE.

PLEASE PRAY HARD FOR THE UNSAVED ONES IN ALL OVER THE WORLD ESPECIALLY IN INDONESIA AND MY FAMILY. GBU

With love in Christ: Christy Gabriel B

PLEASE KEEP ON SERVING THE LORD IN THIS SITE DEAR BROTHER BECAUSE YOU ARE NEEDED HERE. GBY

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. 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

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. John 14:2

A message was given recently in which Jesus said, the mansion I went to prepare for you is now finished. All is ready for Me to bring My people home.

The Mansion Is Finished!

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. John 14:2

A message was given recently in which Jesus said, the mansion I went to prepare for you is now finished. All is ready for Me to bring My people home. From Michelle.

Halleuiah! Thank You Jesus! Come quickly Lord Jesus and take us home to live with You forever.
The best is yet to be.
You shall know even as you are known.
You shall see things clearly.
You shall be changed.
You shall appear with Him.
You shall be in His home.
You shall have every tear wiped away.
You shall receive the reward of your inheritance.
You shall SEE His Face!
You shall reign with Him and be with Him FOREVER!

For the eyes of the LORD move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His. 2 Chronicles 16:9

We do not have to fear the will of God or the Word of God in our lives.
It is the perfect way for us to go.
It is the straightest path we can follow.
It is the highest good we can seek.
It is the greatest privilege we can be given.
It is the fullest joy we can know.
It is the greatest honor we can claim.

No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us. 1 John 4:12

God has known YOU since the time of your conception.
You are NOT Here by Chance.
He has NOT Lost Track of you through the years or forgotten you.
You are here at the Perfect Time.
You are in the Right Place.
You Lack Nothing that His Grace cannot give you.
He has allowed you to be here to fulfill through you His special purpose for this generation.


Remember God is ALWAYS On Time!

Blessings in Jesus name.
Your Sister in Christ,
MICHELLE
