At the end of yet another week,

weary soldiers are huddled behind church doors,

reminiscing about the recent past with outlook bleak -

Not knowing that Life can offer so much more.



Military plans for Earth's invasion

are held by the Kingdom priests,

trying to comprehend the message of scriptural persuasion

for bringing captive lives to Godly release.



Between berating and war counsel cries,

there are mixed signals being presented.

Separating…

Satan is a defeated foe

although he continues to fight -

For we are more than conquerors,

as soldiers in God's army of Light.



His earthly authority has been weakened

since Christ now possesses the keys of Death and Hell;

so we're to prayerfully "stand in the gap"

as we in His Presence strive to dwell.



Our lasting Hope is embodied by Christ alone;

He died to prove His Love as a friend.

Willingly and sacrificially He laid down His Life

and…

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

It is My desire, says the Lord, that My children stop beating themselves up over perceived shortcomings and failures.  More important than the outcome of any situation is that you do the best you can with what you have; that you turn to Me for wisdom, guidance and direction; that your heart belongs to Me.  I would have you put your trust…

I'm sorry...my soul is downcasted. I'm sorry for another disheartening blog. :sighs: Forgive me...

I was ok...I'm not now though.

The enemy ups his attacks more than ever...

I'm worried. My parents... I know He's coming soon. Yet, what's going to happen to them...what's going to happen to any of them?

I'm numb....yes guilt has returned.

I'm not strong biblically. If the JW's start "lecturing" me on their…

Dear Heavenly Father, I do thank you for Your goodness to me. Lord, help me to guard my mouth so that those things that are edifying and good will come out and not those things that contribute to a negative lifestyle. May I bless others with my tongue and never be guilty of cursing anyone. Let my words be gracious and may they bring healing to others. Let my words be kind and gentle and loving. May I reflect Your goodness in all that I do. Forgive me when I say the wrong things. Let me…

Prayer requests come in regularly to my ministry website,  but this one really got my attention:  “Please pray that I have the strength to keep going in my position in my company.  So much is demanded of me, and has been for so long, that I am under immense pressure.  I find I have little balance between work and any kind of…

Why is it that I seem to be loosing my faith? He's so far away...it's not His fault, it's my fault...like usual.

Why am I a stumbling block to others? Am I a stumbling block to anyone on here? If so please tell me. If I'm a stumbling block to the Body of Christ on here...does that mean I should leave? I'm a stumbling block to my own life...Am I a stumbling block to the Body of Christ?

If I'm hurting anyone or causing anyone to loose faith please tell me....if…

Bag of excuses

Some of us walk around with a bag full of excuses when it comes to spending time with God. We make excuses for just about everything and anything which we tend to blame on distractions.

Kids to get to school, shopping to do, clean up the house, wash the car, fill it up with petrol, got to go and play golf, there’s a program on TV I want to see? My partner is not a believer, (love that one) Haven’t got enough…

Dear Heavenly Father, we thank You for the many blessings you have given us. Lord, we never want to become offended with You. Help us to realize that it is the devil who is bringing us the problems in our lives and it is You Who will make a way for us to overcome him. Help us to remain in a joyful attitude even in our trials and tribulations, knowing that You will bring us through victoriously! Lord, we also ask that we will be able to resist all contention with any brother or sister in…

The faces change.  The scenarios change . . . the reason does not.  ‘I just really want him to love me,’ the high school girl explains to me, the day after she has given far too much of herself away to a demanding young man.  She wants love, and is willing to give sex for it.  He wants sex, and is willing to promise love for…

Not physical internal pain, it's much worse than that. It's the pain people don't see. It's the pain that is there but people don't know it...after all how could they when you don't show it. When you smile and they don't know of the struggle that is within. When you want to cry but can't because you're afraid they'll see the tears and eventually find out the problem.

I want to go home. Jesus sees and knows of this internal struggle...this battle going on inside of…

The time of the tenth and eleventh century is typically referred to in history as the “dark ages”. The Roman Empire had collapsed and without a central power, lawlessness reigned. Barbarians invaded countries in Europe unchecked and the Feudal system of government came into being. Evil seemed to follow people everywhere.…

Dear Heavenly Father, we do appreciate your patience and love toward us. May we show this same love to those around us; especially to those with whom we might have a disagreement. Lord, grant us grace to be gracious and not get into contention with others. Lord, remove murmuring and disputing from our hearts and let us be joyful and peace makers. Father, guard our tongues that we do not say things that we will later regret. Forgive us when we fail you and give us Your grace to forgive…

Jesus: The Bread of Life   John 6.22-59

Father, as we read through the rest of this passage following Jesus’ feeding of the 5000, his walking on the water to the disciples … please help us to grasp what you were saying to the crowd then, and what it means to us…

I want to be like the brothern overseas. They spread the gospel to people like communists,muslims,budhists and hindus.

Well, something struck me-and it had to be from God since I couldn't ever figure something like this out. Something struck me. Where's the missionary work for the evolutionists/atheists/satanists,mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses? I've seen websites and a show supporting creation. But, where's the on the street gospel people? You know like those overseas. How…

Some times I go through periods in my life where I feel I am not praying or getting into the word of God as much as I should or as God wants me to. He wants to have a personal relationship and in order to have a relationship with anybody you have to spend time with that person. Every time I wonder away something always nudges me to come back to the Lord whether it is something that happens in my life or someone directly telling me they see me wondering from the right path. I struggle to live…

Dear Heavenly Father, we bless you today. Thank you for the wonderful favor you give us when we are serving You and your causes. You have made a way many times for us when there was not a way to take care of something in the natural. I am grateful for the gifts You have given us. May we always use them to bless those that You send us to. Lord, keep us from the temptation to use money as a means of manipulation, but rather let us use our money to bless and help others with. Lord, may we…

Dear Heavenly Father, we love and worship You today. Thank you for giving us the revelation of Your Word so that we may have the knowledge and wisdom we need daily as we walk in this world. Lord, help me to not to be one who thinks that I must speak about every situation that arises. Help me to guard my mouth and speak only when I can bless and edify others. Lord, I do not want to speak just to be heard. Lord, I ask you also to forgive me when I have spoken inadvisably and brought pain…

                              My Death Changed My Life

     My story starts in 1980 on a hot August day. It was August 26th, my oldest brothers birthday, a day that is etched in all of our memories. It was the day of my accident, the day I died. Here let me set the stage or rather paint the picture if you will...

     It was around 1 pm in the afternoon, my mom was cutting off corn to put in the freezer, while sitting at the kitchen table. All of us kids had gone up to…
