IS IT OK WITH GOD TO BE JEALOUS ?

 “It is of the Lords mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”(Lamentations 3:22,23). “For thou shalt worship no other God: for the Lord, whose name is jealous is a jealous God:” (Exodus 34:14). Did you know that one of God’s names is “Jealous”? I suppose that is the reason the Lord let’s us have a feeling of jealousy sometimes, to let us kind of know how He must feel when we stray away from Him. So maybe it’s not so bad to feel jealous sometimes, so we can know how God must feel. “For the Lord thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.”(Deuteronomy 4:24).The Lord even told his Prophet Hosea to go and marry a whore to show people how he felt about them whoring after other gods.“The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel. The beginning of the word of the Lord by Hosea. And the Lord said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the Lord.”(Hosea 1:1,2). “For I the Lord thy God am a jealous God,”(Exodus 20:5).I hope you have communion often with your family and loved ones. You can even have communion with just you and the Lord. Communion is the only ceremony that Jesus commanded us to keep. People should notice something different about us who love Jesus. Let your light shine so you can glorify God. “Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish from the way when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him.”(Psalms 2:12).Have you kissed the Son of God today? God wants you to come to him willingly out of love, but to those who won’t, “He that believeth on the Son of God hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”(John 3:36). “that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:10,11)

Say this prayer if you want 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.

 

WHY WORRY? ( video & text)

People are always asking,” How are you doing?” And I was asking the Lord, what would be a good response so that I could be a witness, and it came to me to just say, “Oh just loving Jesus.” Isn’t that really what life is all about, and why we are here in the first place? The Lord made it so simple for us. It is the enemy who tries to make things so complicated and confusing.“God is not the author of confusion, but of peace.”(1Corinthians 14:33).You can be loving the Lord no matter what you are doing whether cooking, cleaning ,working, or witnessing, or whatever you’re doing. “Whether therefore ye eat or drink or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.”(I Corinthians 10:31 ). If we just keep our mind and hearts stayed on Jesus we can have perfect peace.”Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”( Isaiah 26:3). That’s why the Bible says to,“Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.“(I Thessalonians 5:16-18 ). Sometimes all it takes is a small moment for a bit of refreshing from on high by stopping to pray and listen to the Lord in the midst of confusion and strife, “Be still and know that I am God.”(Psalm 46:10) Let Jesus work things out. His shoulders are big and strong enough to take care of the whole world and all of the people in Heaven too. Leave something up to the Holy Spirit. Quit worrying, and trying to take every ones problems on including your own. One of my favorite verses that I use a lot is,“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.“( Matthew 11:28-30).“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). When is the last time you saw a little child running around worried about everything? About the only thing most children are concerned about is playing and having a good time. Just take life one day at a time, and one hour at a time, and just love the Lord and enjoy his creation, and help others to do the same.“Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights.”(Psalm 119:143). Find comfort and strength from God’s word. Worrying can make you physically sick and cause you all kinds of problems. Worrying is not trusting, and having faith in the Lord. “casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”   (1 Peter 5:7) You are wise if you are simple. Amen?

Say this prayer if you want 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 JOY OF THE LORD ( video & text)

“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths.”(Proverbs 3:5,6). If you value the praise of man, you had better catch it quickly while you can, because it is soon gone. “How can ye believe that seek honour one from another and seek not the honour that cometh from God only.”( John 5:44).”Not with eyeservice as men pleasers but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart.”(Ephesians 6:6). “Who made himself of no reputation and took upon him the form of a servant.” (Philippians 2:7). “But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.”(Matthew 23:11 ). Jesus is where it is at. If you want to be cool then be like Jesus. If you want to have peace then come to the prince of peace. If you want to have joy remember joy comes from putting Jesus first in your heart and life, and Others second, and Yourself last. If you don’t have joy in your heart and life maybe it’s because you are not following this simple formula. Try it. You will be amazed at how it works; “And the things of this world will grow strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace.” The Lord wants you to be happy and full of joy. We who have Jesus in our hearts should be the happiest people on the face of the earth. In fact people should wonder about us, and say, “Why are they so happy,” and always smiling so much, and have so much fun, and peace, and joy, so they will want what we have, and we can give them Jesus. Amen? ”The joy of the Lord is your strength.” (Nehemiah 8:10). “These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” (John 15:11). Beloved we have a lot of wonderful good things to look forward too. ” whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises:”  (II Peter 1:4a).“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” (Proverbs 4:18).“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” ( I Corinthians 2:9).

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.

 

Encouragement

When King David’s two wives were taken prisoner by the Amalekites and the wives of his men and their children. David and his soldiers wept desperately and cried “until they had no more power in them to weep.” David’s soldiers even were talking about stoning him, because they blamed him for what happened. David sought the Lord, and it says “David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.” And the Lord helped him to get his wives and all the wives and children back of his men and didn’t loose one. There is a great lesson here in 1st Samuel Chapter 30. So when discouragement comes, it is OK to weep, but we need to turn to the Lord, and not to any other thing, or person. Then the Lord will bring about the victory. Discouragement is the opposite of encouragement Discouragement is one of the devil’s favorite weapons to try and get you to stop serving the Lord, and get your eyes off of Jesus, and winning souls. The devil’s demons will tell you that you can’t be a missionary or a preacher of the Gospel, because you are not good enough for God to use you, but the fact is no one is good or prefect  enough. We are all men of like passion. We are all filthy mensterous rags, and sinners. ” He puts no trust in his saints, even the Heavens are unclean in his sight.” (Job 15:15). Some people even listen to the devil so much that they want to end their life. That is the enemy’s ultimate goal to destroy you, and your witness, and service for the Lord. When you talk to people in that frame of mind, tell them if you want to throw your life away, why not give it for a worthy cause in helping others to know Jesus? Many people get discouraged after the loss of a loved one. One of the best ways to overcome, and fight that, is to immerse yourself into God’s Word and service, so that you just have no time to sit around and listen to the enemy’s discouragement. This counsel is easier to say than to do, but it is the best I can give you. Lord help us not to seek to be comforted, but seek to comfort, not seek to be consoled, but to console, for it is only when we take our eyes off our selves, and our own misery, and look to ease the pain of others that we can find peace and even happiness.“He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.” (Matthew 10: 39). “ The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite (crushed) spirit.” (Psalm 34:18). “ He was a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief:” (Isaiah 53:3b) .It is much easier to be a blaster, or a  Prophet of doom, than to be a healer of wounds, a teacher of babes, and a Shepherd of lambs. Encouragement is a very much needed ministry in this world today with so much stress and sorrow out there. Jesus went about everywhere doing good. God’s love way, is the best way. Beloved pray for the gift of encouragement, and be like Jesus Amen?

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.

HOW TO GET YOUR PRAYERS ANSWERED

With faith believing is knowing without having to see. Faith is not “seeing is believing.” “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”( Hebrews 11:6).“Blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”(John 20:29b).“Whom having not seen, ye love: In whom though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: (I Peter 1:8).“For we walk by faith not by sight:” (II Corinthians 5:7).When you pray for something, you need to have faith and believe it is done, even if you don’t instantly see it. “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. Therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that you receive them, and ye shall have them.” ( Mark 11:23,24). This is the kind of faith that God likes to see, and that he wants us to have.The word believe comes from the Greek word “Pisteuo” which means to take in. You have to take in faith into your heart, and really believe and not doubt no matter what, even if you never actually see it happen in this life time. You just know it is done no matter how long it takes to actually see it in the physical realm. You just know it is done by faith in the spiritual realm, and it is done now by faith, because you believe what Jesus said. You’ve got to stand on the word, and quote the terms of the contract (The Bible) to the contract maker (God), in the name of Jesus Christ, “The Only Begotten Son of God. “But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea, driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” (James 1:6&7). Don’t be wishy washy, and on the fence with your prayers if you want to get them answered and past the ceiling. If you want to increase your faith get more into the Word. “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” (Romans 10:17). Be like the Centurion in the Bible. “And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him, and saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 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 8:5-13). Doubts are from the devil. They grow and spread like a cancer. Doubts are even contagious to others, like Zacharias the Priest who doubted the Angel Gabriel’s Word from God, that his wife would have a child when she was well stricken in age. Because he doubted he was not able to speak, until John the Baptist was born.(Luke 1:3-24). John the Baptist ( Zacharias son) after hearing the audible voice of God saying ” this is my Beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.” When he baptized Jesus and afterwards doubted that Jesus was the one that should come, and sent his disciples to ask Jesus if he was the one prophesied as the Messiah to come. Jesus was so upset that John doubted him that he went out and did many miracles raising the dead ,giving sight to the blind, healing the Lepers, and many other miracles. He then told John’s disciples to go back and tell John what they saw. Jesus said that John the Greatest of all Prophets, who was to announce the Coming Of The Lord would be the least in The Kingdom of Heaven  because he doubted. You see how serious doubts are to God? It seems that John was effected by the doubts of his father Zacharias. Don’t let it happen to you ! Fight the devils lies and doubts with the Word like Jesus did. Study and get stronger in the Word everyday ! “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1). The word substance comes from the Greek word Hupostases, which actually means the Title Deed. When you have the Title Deed to a property you know that it is yours even if you have never seen it !  “For by it the elders obtained a good report.  Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.  By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.  By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. “(Hebrews 11:2-5).

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.

CASTING OUT DEMONS

” Yet Michael the arch angel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.” (Jude 1:9). Always cast out bad spirits in the Name Of Jesus Christ! The devil is afraid of the name of JESUS. ” he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. “( Matthew 10: 1b). This verse also shows us how sometimes unclean spirits can cause sickness and diseases. You can rebuke the devil and demons in the name of Jesus, but you had better have the faith to do it.“Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, and they fled out of that house naked and wounded.” (Acts 19: 13-16).This is what happened when seven people tried rebuking out a bad spirit but obviously didn’t have the faith to do it. Jesus said, “When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out: and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.” (Matthew 12:43-45a). These verses show us how a person who has a bad spirit rebuked out of them can actually become worse by not being strong enough spiritually to resist any future attacks from the demons, or they really didn”t want to be delivered from the bad spirits. You can rebuke bad spirits out of people all day if you want, but as soon as you  are gone they will come back in their host seven times worse if the people don’t want to be delivered..So make sure you let them know what can happen if they don’t get strong in the LORD and his WORD and really want in their heart to be set free. One day Jesus cast out many demons out of two people, and commanded them to go into a herd of swine which ran off a cliff and drowned in the sea. “And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way. And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time? And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding. So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine. And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.”(Matthew 8: 28- 32).When Jesus cast out evil spirits, he commanded them to go some place so they wouldn’t just temporarily leave and then come back.We need to do the same. By faith command them to leave, and by faith command them to go some place like the bottom of the sea, 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. 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 your peace. Amen.

THE NICE SLIPPERS

Once upon a time there was a kind elderly Grandfather. The high point of his day was when his Grand child would come and visit him. They would have a great time visiting and talking with one another. One day the child didn’t show up . The next day there was no visit either. This went on for quite a few days. The old Grandfather was brokenhearted. He just lived for that time of fellowship with his grandchild. Finally the child showed up bringing a pair of slippers. The child handed them to the Grandfather, he said my child where have you been? The young child told him I was busy making these slippers for you. The old gentleman said, I thank you my child for these fine slippers, but don’t you know that I would rather have had your company and fellowship? Isn’t this the way we sometimes treat the Lord. We get so busy in our work for him and helping others that we sometimes neglect spending time with The Lord our God our Maker and Master. God help us not to make a God out of God’s service. But to make time to pray and fellowship with him. Amen? Jesus said; “How often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not.” (Matthew 23:37). Jesus is asking, “Will 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 MAGIC FORMULA FOR PEACE (video & text)

Want peace?Jesus said.”Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”(John 14:27).You can have peace in the midst of a storm.When all the world is falling apart and you feel you are in the midst of utter chaos, you can find peace and rest in Jesus.Sometimes it just takes a brief prayer. Just look up to Jesus for your help and strength.”Come unto me all ye that labor 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 of heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”(Matthew ll:28-30).

If we could just learn to rest in the Lord how much better our life would be.What joy would be ours if we would just learn to cast all of our cares upon him.”Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”(I Peter 5:7).Quit worrying about everything so much.Quit trying to carry the world upon your shoulders, let Jesus take care of it, have faith. His shoulders are big and strong enough to carry the whole world, and our little problems are nothing for him.Leave something up to the Holy Spirit  In The Name Of JESUS ! “Rejoice evermore, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”(IThessalonians 5: 17-19). So what is this magic formula,and how do we attain to this state of euphoria and bliss? It’s really quite simple.First forgive others, for he that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he himself must travel.Second get right with God,and follow the verses listed above.“And the peace of God which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”(Philippians 4:7).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 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.

 

IS THERE ANYTHING TO HARD FOR GOD ?

Yes, there is one thing . He can’t break his Word to us. Jesus said “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my Word shall not pass away.”(Matthew 24:35 ). God has bound himself by his Word. “For with God nothing shall be impossible”(Luke 1:37).“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me?” (Jeremiah 32:27). “God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?” (Numbers 23:19). It’s like having a Genie in a bottle. You’ve got the Word, and God’s promises to stand upon, and you don’t get just three wishes. The key is faith, and not doubting in your heart when you ask the Lord to do something. You’ve got to keep believing even if things don’t look so good. Some times God doesn’t answer prayer right away. Sometimes it takes a little time. Sometimes he will test our faith, and see if you really have faith and believe or if you will throw in the towel and give up and put up the sickening white flag of surrender, “Without faith it is impossible to please him.” (Hebrews 11:6).  “And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 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. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” (Mark 11:22-24) “Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.” (John 20:29) God loves it when you put him and his word to the test. He loves to answer the prayer of faith and reward his children for their faith. The Bible is not only a love letter from the Creator of the universe, but it is a contract between the Creator God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit, and us. And God wants you to quote the terms of his contract and stand on and believe his promises no matter what !!! So don’t doubt even if all your ships come home with broken sails, just keep on believing and have faith, and don’t limit the Holy One of Israel. See what the Lord can do. “Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, (Jesus Christ) 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). The Lord wants to make a fighter out of you, not a bed of roses, but of war is what he promised you. “Fight the good fight of faith.” Don’t be double minded and on the fence. “Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. for he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” (James 1: 3-8). Stand firm and believe, Jesus is coming with the answer right now. Believe it is done, as soon as you ask.

Say this prayer if you want 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.
