ARE YOU IN A RELATIONSHIP OR ARE YOU IN A RELIGION?

ARE YOU IN A RELATIONSHIP OR ARE YOU IN A RELIGION?

God never places an expectation on us. Expectations requires that someone does not know the future or outcome and is trying to control behavior to get the desired result.

We try to control behavior largely through expectations. God knows everything about us so why would He have an expectation other than what He… Continue

GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT

SPIRIT

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit moves in the life of the believer to equip him/her in the service of God. Understanding the gifts of the Holy Spirit is important, because we live in a supernatural world and the gifts allow us to have an impact in this world. However, the problem is not every person who has the “Guarantee” of the Holy Spirit, uses the gifts of the Spirit.

Scripture promises a gift of the Spirit to everyone who has… Continue

UNFORGIVENESS IS LIKE POISON TO OUR BODIES.....

When you don’t forgive, it causes many physical problems, as well as mental. HARBORING UNFORGIVENESS IS LIKE DRINKING POISON AND HOPING YOUR ENEMY WILL DIE. People have been known to develop cancer, asthma, social anxiety, bi-polar disorder, depression, ulcers, obesity, addictions (drugs, alcohol) just to name a few. It’s called TOXIC EMOTIONS people!! And it is satan’s trick--so you get your mind off God. So let’s be healthy and forgive those people that have done us wrong. It doesn’t matter… Continue

RAMBLING: CHRISTMAS MIRACLE

8 Or what woman, having ten bits of silver, if one bit has gone from her hands, will not get a light, and go through her house, searching with care till she sees it?

9 And when she has it again, she gets her friends and neighbours together, saying, Be glad with me, for I have got back the bit of silver which had gone from me.

Luke 15:8-9 (BBE)

Webster's New World Dictionary defines a miracle as "A remarkable event or thing, marvel." It also defines it as "An event or… Continue

Any Other Day

" Any Other day"

Christmas shouldn't be much different than any other day

We should think about the Savior as we go along our way

If you gave your heart to Jesus to have and to hold

If you told Him that your heart is truly His to mold

Then Christmas shouldn't be much different a day to celebrate

Than the ordinary days we'll bring to heavens gate

So lets all try to live each day as God would have us do

Asking for Prayers

I would like to ask for prayers for my daughter-in-law (Liz) and family. She was and still is in lots of pain. After testing, it has been found that she has a multiple cyst on her ovaries and something wrong with the pancreas but they do not know what yet. God can do incredible things I know. My son (David) is the prodical son and my daughter-in-law has left her Morman background for accepting Christ as her Savior, but is not walking with Him. They also have a precious 20 month old girl (Laci).… Continue

Be The Salt

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.Galatians 5:22-23

In Matthew 5:13, Jesus calls His followers to be the "salt of the earth." What qualities does salt possess that we can exhibit in our spiritual lives?

First, salt adds flavor. Salt doesn't bring change to itself; it seasons that which needs improved taste. In the same way, we are… Continue

Invisible People

On the street I saw a small girl cold and shivering in a thin dress, with little hope of a decent meal. I became angry and said to God; “Why did you permit this? Why don’t you do something about it?” For a while God said nothing. That night he replied, quite suddenly: “I certainly did something about it. I made you.” - Invisible People

Another day, another discovery. What I found is a blog about "invisible people." Do you know them? Have you seen one? You may say, "How can I see them… Continue

Are there things I do that silence God's presence?

ARE THERE THINGS YOU DO THAT SILENCE GOD’S PRESENCE?

Jesus Christ, our Immanuel, God with us. . .

Yesterday, I discussed how to feel God’s presence in and around you, but today I ask the question: Are there things I do, or might do, that would silence his presence?

I think so. . . while he will not go away necessarily, your ability to feel him will be dimmed. So, what can you do?

Refrain from activities that would “grieve” Him~

To grieve God is to hurt… Continue

The Storms - God's Purpose

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. 29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:28-29

Believers have a choice about how they will respond to life’s tempests. Either they can cast blame while becoming resentful and bitter, or they can turn to the Lord and ask,“What is Your… Continue

Are you seeking the gifts or the Giver?

Are you seeking the gifts or the Giver?

Sometimes we get so caught up in seeking God's presents that we forget all about His presence! God wants every believer to remain in His presence and have a personal relationship with Him just like you would with any other friend.

How do you feel God's presence?

HOW DO YOU FEEL GOD’S PRESENCE? At Christmas time, or any time!

“The Lord himself will give you a sign:

The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son,

and will call him Immanuel,”

spoken by Isaiah some 700 years before the birth of Christ. Isn’t that amazing?

Matthew’s account of the birth of Jesus Christ includes the angel’s announcement to Joseph that his betrothed, Mary, was to bear a son. This was a fulfillment of the above… Continue
