WHAT EVERY MINISTER NEEDS IS A FRESH VISION

"The vision of God always brings the revelation of the utter worthlessness of self, an indispensable prerequisite to effective service for God." - Unger's Commentary on the Old Testament

"Those are fittest to be employed for God who are low in their own eyes and are made deeply sensible of their own weakness and unworthiness." - Matthew Henry

In Exodus 33:20, the Lord God spoke to Moses and said - "...Thou canst not see My face: for there shall no man see Me, and… Continue

The Dry Bones in Your Life

And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.

4Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD." Ezekiel 37:3-4

Do you have situations in your life that seem impossible, or even dead? The prophet in Ezekiel followed the instructions given to him and saw the bones come back to life. You can do the same thing with the circumstances in your life.… Continue

The Purpose-Driven Life of Satan ~ 1 Thessalonians 2.17-20

The Purpose-Driven Life of Satan

17 But, Brothers, when we were torn away from you for a short time (in person, not in thought), out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you. 18 For we wanted to come to you—certainly I, Paul did, again and again—but Satan stopped us. 19 For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? 20 Is it not you? Indeed, you are our glory and joy. 1 Thessalonians 2.17-20

Good… Continue

A problem which I just can't identify...

Argh I feel so stuck right now, so cut off from God, or the work of the Holy Spirit.

There was a time, I was feeling great, just singing praise to him and worship came so natural every day...

Something is wrong...

I want to serve him, to work for him, to give my life to him because he died for me.

Everyone is dying of something, I want to die for him!

I know, I have got to die to self, and surrender to His… Continue

A Mystery

What Christ has done in me is a mystery

He is done yet I’ve only began to see

I found a peace I thought did not exist

A constant companion within my midst

A love within not of my own

A connection now unto the throne

Joy in measure beyond compare

A comfort now… Continue

Are you strong enough to stand? 1 Thessalonians 2.14-16

Good Morning.

Today, we find out what we’re made of, as we examine what others have endured for the sake of Christ. . .

14 For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, for you also endured the same sufferings at the hands of your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews, 15 who both killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out. They are not pleasing to God, but hostile to all men, 16 hindering us from speaking to… Continue

Loving Yourself

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1

Do you like yourself? I have come to understand that most people really don’t like themselves. Some of them know it, while others don’t even have a clue. This self-loathing is the root of so many other problems in their lives. God wants us to have great relationships, but self-rejection and even self-hatred are the roots… Continue

A Heart of Compassion

I'd like to share with you a prayer by Pr Onesmus. This is the path of his latest devotional conviction.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lord, take a look at my hand.

Take a look at my heart.

Mold it and refine it and set me apart.

I want to run to Your altar to catch the fire,

to stand in the gap for the lost world.

Give me a heart of compassion for the world without vision.

Then I… Continue

A Taste of Hell

Have you tasted Hell? Look no more, go to New Zealand!

I love New Zealand. The Land of the Long White Clouds. Greener than where I am now here in Sydney, Australia. Famous for its white sand and clean beaches, millions of sheeps, outdoor adventures, rugby (I'm a fan of the All Blacks), fishing spots, and home of Sir Edmund Hillary, first man to conquer Mt Everest. New Zealand was my home for the past six years and I can say, it's a country of friendly Kiwis - both the bird (kiwi) and… Continue

Prayer

Please keep me in prayers. My eye sight is slowly getting worse. Especially in my left eye. I have to go in to eye doctors soon to get a new prescription. Please pray that God will heal my eyes or that when they compare the eye tests that they will see something amazing to gloify JEsus. Also Pray for my family and I we are going on a weekend bussines trip and I feel like we need an extra hedge of protection round about us. Love in Christ. Laura
