Thanks For What?

Here's a story written by Bob Perks

It's not an easy task to find yourself heading into the holidays when there's little joy in your life.

It had been a bad year, one that would be remembered for the loss of two loved ones, a year that saw financial despair and job loss.

Then there were the health issues. Not everyday concerns, but… Continue

Farewell Pastor Billy Joe Daugherty

"We are sad to lose the presence of our pastor, shepherd, father and brother. We are thankful, however, for his life, love and influence on the individuals and ministries he inspired for the last 30 years." (statement of church leaders of Victory Christian Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma) Read more..

FEEDING FROM THE WRONG SOURSE

Over the last few days the Lord has lain this on my heart

Many times whilst praying for my country and cities he has shown me the strongmen over theses places This same thing applies over all the world not just here in New Zealand

I have seen the strongman holding the church in his arms like a baby soothing the baby rubbing its back holding it to his breast hugging the baby just as a mother holds an infant to her breast feeding it… Continue

Now that is love!

He is Gentleman

He is confident

He is a provider and protector

He is rich and powerful

He owns everything, there is nothing He wouldn't do for me

HE perfects all things concerning me

He anticipates my wants and needs

Everyday He tells me and shows me how much HE loves me

I dont have to perform in order to earn His love

He accepts me the way I am

He doesn't wish I was someone else because He… Continue

" Has The Bible Been Changed .....?"

"Has the Bible Been Changed?"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Muslims and Christians alike carry strong convictions regarding their holy books. Muslims believe the Qur'an was revealed to them by God without error, and that it has not been changed over time by humans. It has been protected by God for the preserving and spreading of the Muslim faith throughout the future. Christians hold these same convictions to… Continue

Give Thanks - Everyday!

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. Psalms 100:4

The Bible instructs us, “In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18) That directive might seem easy when life is going well. But if painful circumstances arise, expressing gratitude can become difficult.

It’s interesting to note that this instruction to thank the Lord… Continue

Who will not bring glory to Your Name?

'Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to Your Name?' - Revelation 15:4

The victors who remained standing 1900 years ago or during the Middle Ages, the victors of yesterday, of today and also of tomorrow, sing the song of Moses and ask: 'Who will not fear You, O Lord, and bring glory to Your Name?' (Rev 15:4). Look at Revelation 15:1-4, the answer would be: Those who do not fear the Lord - who don't try to know Him better, consult Him, or worship Him with thankfulness and… Continue

Thank you, God

A prayer~

Good Morning, Father.

It is the day before Thanksgiving, and I should like to get out of the maelstrom of activity in and around me, and say ‘thank you.’ Oh, God, how easy, how normal it is to concern myself more with what is around me, than a ready awareness of your greatness. As I open the psalms, David’s words elevate my thinking: "The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed in majesty and is armed with strength"1

Teach me how to rightly… Continue

Being Saved

Jesus has saved my life more than once. But one time in peculiar will always stay in my heart. I thought my mom was being too hard on me. My classmates were being more mean then normal. I couldn’t cry because my mom and dad would yell at me for it, so I kept all the pain inside. After awhile, I needed a way to release my pain without anyone finding out. I started to cut myself. I cut myself on my shoulders, and on the tops of my feet. It felt so good to me. It made it where I could feel. I… Continue

Choose Today Whom You Will Serve

One of my favourite character in the Bible is Joshua. I admire how he challenged the Israelites to choose whom they will serve. Joshua made a definite stand! A powerful one. Against the odds. He must have been rediculed, persecuted, and abandoned. His decision was unpopular to many people who chose to worship their idols, their wealth, their jobs, and their possessions.

Joshua was a military leader, a prophet, a judge. He was a man of influence. A spy. A war strategist famous for… Continue

I used to be like this before, but I let go.... and now I am free !!!

Throughout the Old and New Testaments, the authors of Scripture use the images of a father and his child, a husband and his wife, and a friend and his companion to describe the relationship between God and his people.

According to Genesis 1 and 2, when God created the first human being, Adam, God breathed into him the breath of life (Genesis 2:7). In a very profound sense, Adam was a son of God (see Luke 3:38). In Jesus' parable of the prodigal… Continue

Be Inspired: Team Hoyt Story

I have watched this clip several times and I cannot stop being inspired everytime I view the same again and again. It's a concrete demonstration of a father's love to his son. In my deep thoughts, I realize how God's love is being manifested to mankind. God offers a love more than our earthly father could give. God's desire is to lavish His unconditional love to anyone. A love that is beyond all measures. A love that is endless. A steadfast love. For God so loved the world that He gave His only… Continue

The holidays . . . no more rucksacks

THE HOLIDAYS. . . no more rucksacks

I love this time of year. Some people get really stressed out by the holidays—not me—heck, I’ve been playing Christmas music since the day after Halloween. The only thing is, when Thanksgiving Day gets here, it goes so fast! When Christmas Day finally gets here, it is over far too quickly for me. I’ve been thinking that maybe both of those are so because I don’t really prepare my heart all that well in advance.

I should like to give Christ a… Continue

JUST A REMINDER.....KEEP WATCH...

Matthew 24:42-44
(42) "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. (43) But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. (44) So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

BATTLE VERSES

These battle verses will show the incredible supernatural power that God can channel through you if you would be willing to step into and walk with His anointing.

"Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases." (Luke 9:1)

COMMANDING DEMONS TO STAND DOWN TO PROPERLY WITNESS TO SOMEONE....

Commanding Demons to Stand Down

So You Can Properly Witness to Someone

As we have said over and over in many of our articles, the number one thing that we as Christians

should be doing for the Lord is to lead as many souls as we possibly can into eternal salvation through Jesus Christ. Nothing, and I mean nothing, is greater and more important than leading a lost soul into the saving grace of our Lord and Savor Jesus Christ.

In this article I want to give you a… Continue

What is in the center of the Bible?

Even if you are not religious this is amazing how the Bible is working.

The shortest chapter in the Bible is Psalm 117

The longest chapter in the Bible is Psalm 119

The capter in the middle of the Bible is Psalm 118

There are 594 chapters before and after Psalm 118, add these two numbers 594 together and you get 1188 and that is Psalm 118:8 and what did it says:

Psalms 118:8

"It is better to trust in the LORD than to put… Continue

Way Of The Master

I have a book called the The School of Biblical Evangelism, published by Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron. I love Ray's stories about sharing the gospel and his wittiness. I'm still not a good studier but I want to learn more... to communicate like he does. he makes me want to be better at things like listening to other people, and talking to other people, and caring about other people. Oh, I do have my bible to read that gives me the insight I need but it doesn't stick with me for as long as it… Continue

GET INTENTIONAL

11Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, 12so that your daily live may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody. 1 Thessalonians 4.11-12, NIV
