Who'd wanna be a Teacher?

A friend and I have been doing a study on James via email. It's been quite an adventure!! I must share some insights from chapters 1 and 2 sometime. Things like counting it all joy when trouble comes... and not being double-minded ... and faith without works is dead... etc.

Anyhow, that will have to wait, because now we're up to another sticky topic in chapter 3. The first verse certainly made me take a step back. Here's James 3, verses 1… Continue

January 17 - Let God Do It His Way

Body: "Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored, and you shall be clean. But Naaman was angry.

"

(2 Kings 5:10-11)

So often we miss out on what God wants to do for us because He doesn't do it the way we think He should. We work up an idea in our minds about how He's going to heal us, for instance. We think He's going to send some famous preacher to lay hands on us or that He's going to knock us off our feet… Continue

Encounter with an angel: "Does He Love God?"

Uncertainty took me down a path I did not want to go. I became sinfully involved with a man I thought I loved so very much. The feeling of conviction was very strong at times, but I continued to justify my actions in my thoughts. I told myself things like, "We love each other, and I plan to spend my whole life with him; therefore, God should understand." In time, the excuse just wasn't enough to contend my spirit and I had to get out of the relationship. When I did leave the man, I drew very…

For anyone who needs a good laugh

Billy Graham was returning

to Charlotte after a speaking engagement and when his Plane arrived there was a limousine there to transport him to his home..

As he prepared to get into the limo, he stopped and spoke to the driver.

'You know' he said, 'I am 87 years old and I have never

driven a limousine. Would you mind if I drove it for a while?'

The driver said,

'No problem. Have at it.'

Billy gets into the… Continue

Why God Created Women

Why God Created Women

When I created the heavens and the earth, I spoke them into being. When I created man, I formed him and breathed life into his nostrils. But you, woman, I fashioned after I breathed the breath of life into man because your nostrils are too delicate.

I allowed a deep sleep to come over him so I could patiently and perfectly fashion you. Man was put to sleep so that he could not interfere with the… Continue

January 16 - Jesus Can Set Them Free

January 16 - Jesus Can Set Them Free

Body: "And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

"

(Matthew 10:7-8)

There are those who've said that some of the diseases that are on the rampage right now, diseases such as AIDS, are God's way of punishing immoral people today.

There is absolutely no scriptural basis for that!

God does not… Continue

JUGGERNAUT OR FOIBLE

From My Perspective - - -

Generalization is a tool in expression that allows one to either overstate or underestimate what is or is not factual. Next week will be observed as National Right To Life Week. An example is this statement appearing on www.OneNewsNow.com: “Less than 10% believe abortion should be legal, unfettered…A nationwide survey commissioned by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops underscores the public view of abortion. The poll involved a cross-section of… Continue

"Blessed are the merciful"

Why are so many Christians so calloused? I am never suggesting compromising on biblical truths (indeed, Jesus on occasion spoke sharply to his disciples and others) , but aren't we all brothers and sisters in Christ? and if someone isn't yet a follower of Jesus that is even more reason to show them God's mercy by being merciful to them. Not to mention that so many people are stuck in their own interpretations of the bible that they are closed to the whisperings of the Holy Spirit and to growing… Continue

Has His Presence Been Captured!

1 Samuel 4:21-22 21And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel: because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father in law and her husband. 22And she said, the glory is departed from Israel: for the ark of God is taken. (KJV)

This was a sad day for the nation of Israel. The ark represented the presence of God in their midst. It was the focal point of His being with them in authority, government, power and glory. Unfortunately because of the sins… Continue

one shall be taken

ONE SHALL BE TAKEN

In Jer 33:1-3 we read: "Moreover the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah the second time while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying: Thus saith the Lord the maker thereof, the Lord that formed it, to establish it: the Lord is His name; Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not."

The wonderful thing about God is that He has so much for us that we have never seen yet. Some… Continue

Please God, Live in my Heart!

On the day after Christmas of 2008 I was in my office working on teachings for the prophetic for my web site concerning the gifts of the Holy Spirit. As I completed the work I was meditating on the wonderful gift of God. I was thinking of how that the Spirit of God in the Greek is “pneuma” which means “breath” The Spirit of God is the breath of God. God is an eternal being and He continues to breathe His Spirit of life into our lives on a daily basis. To be baptized in the Spirit of God is a… Continue

The Wicked Contemn God.

January 14

“They contemn the counsel of the Most High.”

Contemn; To slight; to neglect as unworthy of regard; to reject with disdain.

To despise; to consider and treat as mean and despicable; to scorn.

The evil men, of this world, despise the Lord for His word, and His laws. We see many that have a profound hatred of anything that has to do with the Lord, or those that believe on the name of His Son Jesus. Even in this up coming inauguration of… Continue

Hard Pressed!

As people of faith our present circumstance does not predict the outcome of our faith. In fact it is our faith that will move us from places of spiritual confinement into the freedom of greater revelation and true liberation from our enemies and/or difficult situations. In the book of Acts Peter found himself in a very difficult and restrictive place while preaching the gospel of Christ.

Acts 12:3-11 3When Herod saw how much this pleased the Jewish leaders, he arrested Peter during… Continue

COMPANIONSHIP IS A GOD THING

I have been inspired with a truth this week about companionship. In the Trinity (Father,Son,Holy Spirit) is this wonderful companionship called God. God knew that if He was going to create mankind in his image that companionship was going to be an important aspect of Humanity.

Jesus said that the commandments can be summed up in 2 commands which are to love God and one another.

Sin breaks companship with God and… Continue

Magnificent Obsession

There was a book written about a person who was totally obsessed with the idea of fulfilling another person's goal in life. It was called "THE MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION." The dictionary says an obsession is "complete domination of the mind by one idea." I can see by this that I have an obsession: to be filled with all the fulness of God and come into the image of Jesus Christ, which is what I call "Sonship."

As God knows my heart, it is not a selfish desire. The reason I want to be like… Continue
