Living For Jesus Part 2 ( Video & text)

11.) Colossians 2: 6-8 “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” The Bible says, That we should beware. There are all kinds of false doctrines, and false cults, and groups, out there just waiting to gobble you up! So stay in the word daily!

12.) Matthew 9: 36-38 “But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.”

13.) Mark 16:15 “ And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” If you can’t be a missionary , support one. Your either a missionary of a mission field, which are you? Why should anyone hear  the gospel twice when some have never heard it once.?

14.) Philippians 4:13 “ I can do all things through Christ which strengthenth me.”

15.) I Corinthians 11:26 “For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.” Have communion often get a clean slate with God.

16.) John 9: 4 “ I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.”

Joshua 1:8 ”This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” This is the Biblical formula for prosperity and success.

18.) Philippians 2:14,15  “Do all things without murmurings and disputings. That ye may be blameless and harmless,the sons of God,without rebuke. In the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world.”

19.) Philippians 3:13,14 “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”

20.) II Timothy 3:12 “Yea, and all that shall live Godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.”

21.) II Timothy 4:2 “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove ,rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.”

22.) Matthew 11:28-30 “ Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

23.) Micah 6:8 “He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”

Ephesians 6: 10-18  Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;”

27.) II Timothy 2:4 “ No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.”Jesus called us to be in the world , but not of the world.

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.”

LIVING FOR JESUS PART 1(video & text)

 

1.) Matthew 4:19 “And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you  fishers of men.”After you find Jesus you will just naturally want to follow him and tell everyone about him.
2.) John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Jesus is the way of Life. Jesus is the Answer, Jesus is the best, the kindest, and the most loving. Jesus is the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords. Jesus is the Son of the Living God! Jesus is what you’ve been looking for all your life. Jesus is the coolest of the cool ! Jesus is where it’s at! Jesus is the most high!
3.) Luke 9:23,24 “And he said unto them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.”
4.) II Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
5.) John 8:31,32 “Then said Jesus  to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my Word , then are ye my disciples in deed. And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
6.) Luke 9:2 “And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.”
7.) Luke 14:33 “So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.” I have forsaken all my material goods before, and then I found out that doing that was just the beginning. Forsaking all is a daily process, and it is about giving up your own wants and desires and putting Jesus first in your heart and life. Beloved you will never truly forsake all until your life is over,and you die for Jesus. Paul said, “I die Daily.” (I Corinthians 15:31b).
8.) Matthew 13: 45,46 “ Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.”
9.) John 15: 16  “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.”
 10.) John 4:35 “ Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.”

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

 

IS GOD A MIND READER ?

Yes, GOD our HEAVENLY FATHER, JESUS CHRIST, and THE HOLY SPIRIT do know our thoughts, and what is in our hearts. They are all Omni powerful, and Omni present meaning God’s Spirit is everywhere. “Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.”(Psalm 139:7-12). THE FATHER, THE SON, and THE HOLY GHOST are also Omniscient meaning all knowing.They are so powerful, and all knowing, that they can read every ones thoughts at the same time, even the people in heaven, and on earth, and in hell. WOW, think about that ! “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” (Matthew 28:18).The Bible says, “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer. “(Psalm 19:14). “And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?” (Matthew 9:4). Thoughts come from the spirit world, some are from God, and his Angels, and some come from your Spirit Helpers that are assigned to help you, and some from your own Spirit. You just need to discern where the thought is coming from. If the thought is good and to do good, then it is from God. If the thought is to do evil, then it is from the devil and his demons. That is why the Bible says;  “neither give place to the devil.” (Ephesians 4:27) “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, “(Hebrews 12:1).“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” (Hebrews 4:12).The devil has some organization in his dark kingdom, and some thoughts are from the devil, and his demons who are assigned to hinder you, and trip you off and away from God and his will for you.The devil is not Omniscient. and can not read your thoughts.You can’t keep the birds from flying over your head, but you can keep them from landing and making a nest in your hair. So it is, with thoughts from the devil and his demons.  When Abraham’s servant went to find a wife for Isaac, he said in his heart, Lord let it be the woman that brings water for me and my camel.You can read this amazing story in Genesis Chapter 24. “for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)  casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” ( 2 Corinthians 10:4,5). This is why it is good for you to memorize scriptures and meditate on God’s Word day and night. If you don’t you are really missing out.  “and thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.”(Isaiah 30:21). Just make sure that what you are hearing goes along with the Bible. “To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.”(Isaiah 8:20). Don’t let the enemy win the battle. God does not reward us according to our thoughts, but according to our actions. “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.” (Jeremiah 17:9,10) “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.  Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;  and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:  praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; “ (Ephesians 6: 10-18). So since the Lord is always reading our minds and heart, and thoughts, and we can’t hide anything from him, that means we can always be praying and communicating with him.” Pray without ceasing.” ( I Thessalonians 5:17).  Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6,7 ). Be sure and take time to listen to the Lord. He speaks in a still small voice. “Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.” (Psalm 46:10)

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I  believed you died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

HOLD ON DON’T DOUBT

” For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.” (Mark 11:23). Got any prayers that haven’t been answered ? It could be because you have doubted in your heart. If that is the case just ask the Lord to forgive you and have faith that he will, and get back on track or like my Dad used to say “straighten up and fly right. “And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.” (Matthew 13:58). The key to getting your prayers answered is to hold on by faith even if you don’t see the answer right away, and don’t doubt in your heart. Just keep on believing. Or another reason you may have unanswered prayers is because you just have to be patient and wait on the Lord to work things out so your prayers will be answered. Just don’t doubt in your heart during the waiting time. Remember God is working things out for you behind the scenes. So don’t throw a monkey wrench into the machinery by doubting in your heart. Don’t leave school until the bell rings. Quote the terms of the contract (The Bible) to the contract makers, God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus Christ. “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.” (Mark 9:23)

 

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

A LESSON ON FORGIVENESS

I wonder how many times that we say the words from the Lord’s Prayer “forgive us our trespasses AS we forgive those who trespass against us.” that we really fully understand what we are saying? You mean we’re only going to be forgiven the way we forgive others? Yes, that’s what it says. Lord help us to be more forgiving so that we too may be forgiven. I know I need a lot of mercy and forgiving from the Lord and others so that’s why I want to be more forgiving because with the same degree of forgiving I show toward others that is the same degree of forgiving God will show back to me. Unforgiveness is like taking in a poison and hoping to get better. Unforgiveness will even make you physically sick. Those who won’t forgive others break down the bridge which they themselves must cross over “As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.” (Psalm 103:12)  “I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.” (Isaiah 43:25)   “whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” (Galatians 6:7b). If we want the Lord to not remember our sins then we should be treating others the same way, not just forgiving, but also forgetting.  “Then came Peter unto him, and said Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me,and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him. I say not unto thee,Until seven times; but, Until seventy times seven.” (Mathew 18:21,22). Sometimes the hardest person that you will ever have to forgive is yourself! “Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;  leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.” (Matthew 5:23,24). How can we ask the Lord to answer our prayers or ask for forgiveness for ourselves when we can’t forgive others?  “For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:  but if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” (Matthew 6:14,15). “and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32.) “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.” (3 John1:4). These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.” (John 15:11-12). ” Now  we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.” (1 Thessalonians 5:14). It’s not right for people to bring up others past sins that have already been forgiven by Jesus Christ, and are washed away by his precious blood, and that Jesus himself, and God The Father, and The Holy Spirit themselves remember them no more. In fact the only one who does is the devil, who tries to condemn us. So don’t be like the devil and remind people of their past sins.“Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.” (Luke 7:47). How much have you been forgiven? Does it take you a long time to forgive others who ask you for forgiveness? Beware, because you don’t want the Lord to take a long time to forgive you.

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

THE OMNISCIENT, OMNIPOTENT, AND OMNIPRESENT, POWER OF GOD

Jesus said; “Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.” (Matthew 10:29-31). He knows every thought that we think: and every move that we make. He knows what everyone is thinking even the people in Heaven and Hell at the same time. God, and Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are our spiritual parents, and they are Omniscient (All knowing), Omnipotent (All powerful), and Omnipresent (Gods spirit is everywhere; there is nowhere to hide from him). “Whether shall I go from thy spirit? or whether shall I flee from thy Presence?” (Psalm 139:7). “The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.” (Proverbs 15:3).  God is a loving father who loves and pities his children. He never sleeps or slumbers. He is always there for us. “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come. Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38,39).The more we love, honor, and obey him, the more he pours out his love and spirit upon us.“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.” (Matthew 22:37).  “And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.” ( Acts 5:32). So there you have it, if you want more of the Holy Spirit then love and obey the Lord more.

PLEASE SAY THIS PRAYER TO BE SAVED:

Dear Jesus, I want to know you and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I believe you are the Only Begotten Son of God, and you died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Savior. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

 

DO YOU SEEK HIS FACE ?

“Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.”(I Chronicles 16:11 ). “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” (John 7:24). There is something about seeking his face. That must mean being close to him, because if you are right up to some ones face then you are pretty close to them. They say you are in their space. The Bible says in (Isaiah 53:2,3) “For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.” These verses were talking about the time when Jesus came to the earth, and lived, and was crucified for you and me. If that is a picture of Jesus’s face on the shroud of Turin, and I believe it is, then he wasn’t a real handsome man when he was on the earth, was he? If you look in the book of Revelation it gives quite a different description of what Jesus looks like now in his new body. The Bible says we will look like him too, and our new body’s “shall be fashioned like unto his glorious body.”(Philippians 3:21). “and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.”(Revelation 1:16b).However I am sure that we won’t shine as bright as Jesus does. Jesus said; “I am the bright and the morning star.” (Revelations 22:16b).The star that shines brighter than all the stars. Wow, that’s symbolic of Jesus ! “And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.” (Daniel 12:3). If you are hanging around Jesus a lot some of that shining is bound to rub off on you. So hang out with Jesus and shine. “Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:” ( Isaiah 55:6). “And ye shall seek me , and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” ( Jeremiah 29:13). Jesus wants to come and live inside of you, and transform you. “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” (Romans 12:2). He must increase, but I must decrease.”(John 3:30). I just want more of Jesus, and less of me.

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

SPIRITUAL STRENGTH (video & text)

http://youtu.be/u4URNFWDkjs

Delilah said to Sampson “wherein lieth your strength?”( Judges 16:6) Perhaps Sampson didn’t look real strong in the flesh physically. His real strength came from the Lord. God blessed him with such special  power and strength that one day he went out and killed 1,000 Philistines with the jaw bone of an ass. (Probably one of his critics).”Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.” (Zechariah 4:6b ). Sampson had vowed a vow to never drink wine or cut his hair,The vow of the Nazarites (Read Judges chapter 13), and as long as he obeyed the Lord, and stood by his vow, God was with him and anointed him with great strength and power. However when he got his eyes and heart off of the Lord and was deceived by Delilah, he fell under her spell and revealed the secret of his strength. He lost not only his hair, but Gods anointing and power. Was his strength in his hair? No, it was in his obedience to the Lord. The Holy Ghost power is given to those who obey the Lord.(Acts 5:32). When his hair grew back he got his power back from the Lord, even though the Philistines who worshiped the false god dagon, gouged out his eyes, he managed to kill more of his enemies at his death then in his life.You could say he lost his eyes so he could see clearly.Have you fallen into or under a deceptive trap from the enemy and lost your spiritual sight and strength from the Lord? Well when your hair grows back or spiritual hair, or, when you come to your senses Iike the prodigal son, Then the Lord can be with you again and give you even greater power to accomplish even greater things for him and his Glory. Jesus will come running to you and take you back in his arms.It’s not too late. If you will only turn around and come toward him. “He that cometh to me , I will in no wise cast out.”(John 6:37).

“Not by might,nor by power, but by my spirit saith the Lord of Hosts.”(Zechariah 4:6b).”I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”(Philippians 4:13).The Lord will give you grace for the trial and power for the hour when you need it and not before.All you have to do is call out to Jesus.”For the eyes of the Lord run to and from through out the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect towards him.”( IIChronicles 16:9a).”And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;”( Isaiah 11:2). If you are going to partner with God you had better plan big.Don’t limit the Holy One of Israel.”Thus saith the Lord, The Holy One of Israel,( JESUS)and his Maker ( GOD),Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands,command ye me.”(Isaiah 45:11). God’s idea of strength is the picture of the weakest saint praying on his knees.Take one day at a time, Jesus said, “Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” ( Matthew 6:34).” Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”( 1 Peter 5:7).Sometimes you literally have to grab all your cares and worries and throw them up to the Lord !!!

If you want to go to Heaven someday, sincerely pray this simple prayer:

Dear Jesus, I want to know you and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me.I believe you are the Only Begotten Son of God, and you died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Savior. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

POWERFUL VERSES TO CLAIM FOR MIRACLES IN YOUR LIFE !

“And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way, and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.”(Matthew 8:13). “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”(Matthew 18:20). “Jesus answered, and said unto them, verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say untothis mountain, Be thou removed, and cast into the sea: it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”(Matthew 21:21,22).”Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”(Mark 9:23).And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do,that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.”(John 14:13,14).For with God nothing shall be impossible.” (Luke 1:37).“Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.”(Isaiah 45:11).Three men were walking on a wall, Feeling, Faith, and Fact. Feeling had an awful fall, and Faith was taken back. Only Fact remained. So Fact pulled up Faith, and Faith pulled up Feeling , and they walked on the wall again.There is a good lesson here in this little story. We are suppose to walk by Faith no matter how we feel or what conditions look like. “ For we walk by faith, not by sight:.” ( II Corinthians 5:7). Remember God is still upon the Throne, and Prayer with Faith Changes things. So Stand upon the promises of God’s Word, and quote the terms of the contract ( the Scriptures) to the contract maker,God, in the name of Jesus Christ !

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.

FREEDOM IN PRAISING THE LORD

The Lord spoke to my heart about how he wants all of his children to praise him more. If you really want to knock the devil for a loop just start praising the Lord.“And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses’ hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.” (Exodus 17:11-13). So if you have some battles you need to overcome and some victories that you want to gain, just start praising the Lord. “The Lord inhabits the praises of his people.”(Psalm 22:3). The Lord is there with you when you praise him. You can praise the Lord alone by yourself, and you can praise the Lord around others during prayer, and praise and worship time. Don’t let the enemy win by using your pride, and listening to the enemy  (the devil and his demons) telling you “Oh, what will people think about me? If I started raising my arms and hands and praising the Lord.” The Lord really loves it when you praise him when your alone, and when you raise your arms and hands and praise him in front of others. It’s even a testimony and can help others to break through in the spirit, and find the freedom from all their cares and troubles by praising the Lord. Just don’t do it for a show to man.  Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;” (Ephesians 6:6 ). If you are not praising the Lord enough you are really missing out on a great blessing and freedom. So have a break through out of the chains that bind you, and start praising the Lord and speak in tongues. “I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:” (l Corinthians 14:18) Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.” (Psalm 134:2 ). There is a great freedom and blessing awaiting you as you praise him and you will get so much closer to Jesus by praising him. I have been in prayer and praise meetings where it seemed that God’s Spirit was poured out upon us so much that it seemed like he took the whole room to Heavenly places unknown. Paul talked about being caught up to the third heaven (2 Corinthians 12:2). I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. I sought the Lord, and he heard  me, and delivered me from all my fears.” (Psalm 34:1-3 ). If you don’t feel like praising the Lord well then that’s the time you need to do it the most. Let God lift you up and out of it by Praising him.  “Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 18:3). Please him by Praising him, that is what you were made for.There is going to be plenty of praising the Lord in Heaven. You might as well get used to it. Try it you might like it.

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour.I  believed you died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me peace. Amen.
