RAMBLING: In His Presence

Isaiah Is Sent With a Message for the LORD'S People

1 In the year King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a high and lofty throne. The bottom of his robe filled the temple. 2 Angels were standing above him. Each had six wings: With two they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. 3 They called to each other and said,

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Armies!

The whole earth is filled with his… Continue

Race

African, white, asian, indian, hispanic, etc...the list goes on and on. We were all put here for a purpose. A purpose we are too blind to see because we are too busy hating one another. For what? What is there to gain from hate? God's purpose for putting us here was in hopes that we all, as a different race, would learn to get along with one another. There is no one race above the other. There is no one sinless race, we are all guilty of sin and hate. As long as we continue our fight and hate… Continue

You can not run the race if you are " OVERWEIGHT " ok !!!

You can not run the race if you are overweight ok!!!….

In any race…. One who join must be physical fit. This refers to a runner making sure that all extra weights have been removed from his body. A 300 pound man isn't ready to run a marathon. Image and video hosting by TinyPic

In the spiritual arena, this refers to anything that hinders our walk with God. It speaks of things that are innocent in and of themselves, but when they slow you down in the Christian race,… Continue

Be Aware

For those who are not savy with the internet, if you get a request on here from some girl, and her picture is bright and perfect, but she has no profile info except a name and gender, shes fake and it isnt a girl. I used to manage a social site, and people like that make profile on websites that dont charge, and then they will make quick profiles and use a pretty picture to attract guys, but its not a real girl, its probably some foreigner. Just be careful, and delete everyone who has a page… Continue

Paul thanks God for what he has done

PAUL THANKS GOD for what he has done. 1 Corinthians 1.4-9

Always I thank my God for you, for the grace of God which has been given to you in Christ Jesus. I have good reason to do so, because in him you have been enriched in everything, in every form of speech, and in every form of knowledge, inasmuch as what we promised you that Christ could do for his people has been proved to be true in you. The result is that there is no spiritual gift in which you lag behind, while you eagerly wait… Continue

Here's proof to my last post 'you are worthy'

Ok I'll start right at the start.

I was driving to meet a friend, and was running late, (first God moment), she was running late too.

I came out of the driveway on the wrong angle so went a different way to usual.

A car was coming out of a driveway and reversed right into me.

Learned later on that they were Christian. (2nd God moment).

Tying to find our insurance details, as when we called them, they told us that they have no record of our car, and that we… Continue

guess god makes choices

JOHN 14:13-14

And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it

I have been struggling for 8 months now to ask God in Jesus name for some sign to try and rescue a marriage where I felt there was some opportunity or a ray of hope.

Sadly I am told the divorce is in final stages and will be served to the day. I find it so hard to accept. The wife was never… Continue

I was the guy women hated

So to understand why I do the things I do, I just have to look at why I do them. My entire life has been filled with motivations of the devil. Like I said in my previous blog, I have been afraid of Gods plan for a long time, not trusting him to fulfill my need for happiness. Now im not saying that I didnt think God could give me happiness, but it wasnt the happiness I wanted. I have always wanted to be rich, have nice things, date a lot of women, and be glorified by everyone who saw me. The… Continue

For Starters

Lately I have been having a hard time reconnecting with God, and its like I know why, but for whatever reason I keep asking myself why, avoiding what I know in my heart holds the real answer. I avoid God in a bunch of aspects in my life and Im pretty sure im scared, probably because the Devil whispers these sweet, hollow little promises of happiness and fun, money, power, and I sometimes fall for it, and think that what God has in store for me will be the recipricle of what I want.(SELFISH I… Continue

“Consider This Marrow to Thy Bones”

“Consider This Marrow to Thy Bones”

For so long we have missed the point of sin in the action of blaspheming the Holy Spirit, the church must arise and wake and walk the walk we were called to. The Word blaspheme has several meanings, all of which center around one very solid theological conclusion. If you’re disobeying God”s Word in any form of deliberate action, you’re blasphing the Holy Spirit, the unforgivable sin! Mar 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath… Continue

When Storms Come

Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He sent the multitudes away. And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there. Matthew 14:22-23

Storms are inevitable. In nature, powerful tempests leave a changed landscape behind them. In our lives, challenging circumstances can force us to shift direction.

YOU CAN HAVE A "BETHEL" IF YOU WILL MAKE THE NECESSARY PREPARATIONS!

"The character of a man's step is often an index to the state of his soul." - Biblical Illustrator

"God will dwell with those that prepare Him a habitation." - Matthew Henry

"Though we are at all times in His presence, His house is the place in which we entreat Him to manifest Himself to His congregated people. Yet, though we know that - the place and the purpose of our frequenting it are of the most holy and solemn nature, it is only by a strong effort that we can… Continue

They fight, till they die

Angels on the sideline,

Puzzled and amused.

Why did Father give these humans free will?

Now they're all confused.

Don't these talking monkeys know that

Eden has enough to go around?

Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys,

where there's one you're bound to divide it

Right in two

Angels on the sideline,

Baffled and confused.

Father blessed them all with reason.

And this is what they choose.

(and this is what… Continue

Wise words from the little man at the VA clinic

While at the VA clinic (the veterans' hospital--in case you don't know), I sat waiting to see the doctor. I watched an elderly man approach the receptionist....moving very slowly with the aid of a walker, with his back permanently bent at a 90 degree angle. I wondered how painful that position must be for someone to be in every second of their lives. But he didn't complain.

He was dressed in a 3-piece suit and I figured it probably took him at least an hour to dress himself… Continue

From the eye of an empath

Empath

How I Know is What I Am

"I've seen blue skies,

through these tears in my eyes,

and I realize, I'm going home."

I sit in my silence

watching the world pass me by.

I am the watcher, the waiter,

the one who feels the heart of the world.

I am an Empath, a seeker of others

and hider amongst the noise.

What I feel,

I feel so… Continue

Would you choose the storm?

(This was a response of mine to a friend's blog entry that I found many moons later and thought I'd share.)

This is beautiful, my friend. Every bit of it. Oh....the things I could tell you that have traveled thousands of miles through my mind...

But the the fear of vulnerability sat me back in my chair for a second until I realized that my insecurity regarding anyone (namely my daughter in the kitchen behind me) seeing ME get lost in thought, pushed me… Continue

To the demon

My life is like a movie in vivid all-spectrum color

A hailstorm of emotions

Beating me down

Tearing a hole in the sky

A demon crouches looking me in the eye

But I've seen the faces in the sand

The warriors before me who've been beckoning me

Since I first touched my wet feet to the floor

Who do you think you are

The tips of my feet graze the treetops

And I am in flight once again

This is my time of freedom

You hate that in… Continue
