We know in the Bible that the scriptures tells us that Satan comes as a thief to kill, steal and destroy. And that was the shocking news I received Saturday night at 6:30 pm on December 17, 2011.
I had a uneasy feeling in my spirit that something was not right when Craig did not show up for work Sunday night at 8 pm on December 11, 2011. I said a silent prayer for Craig on Monday morning.
Craig was a hard working man. He enjoyed listening to audio books. He was a very good friend of mine and was a very friendly person. Wow, I can't believe he is gone. I sure miss him.
Death has a way of making us feel that we was left behind. And what hurts the most is I can not talk to him face to face again.
I Hate Satan And His Demons...
Satan and his demons has caused the human race so much heart ache and pain. Satan and his demons are hard at work, trying to destory us and put a stop to God's plan for us. He tries to destory our hope and happyness. By causing wars and desasters. And then he turns around and tries to get us to blame it all on God. And it is God that is our only hope out if this mess.
Satan attacked me back on July 4, 2010. I had blood clots in both lungs. It's known as Pulmonary Embolism. I could not breathe because of the chronic pain in my lungs.
I was admitted into the hospital and they had me on morphine so I could breathe. I had a button and every time I had an over whelming pain attack I could push the button to pump morphine to numb the pain again.
The Doctor told my wife that I had a severe attack. And I was lucky to have made it to the hospital when I did. He said, many people die from a Pulmonary Embolism attack as bad as mine was.
I survived the attack from Satan because God has plans for me to complete a journey for Him. And after I complete the mission then God will take me home to Heaven.
What that journey is that God has called me to do for Him is. To share His message of love and forgiveness that can only be found in Jesus Christ. Please listen closely, We only have one chance to get it right before we die. And the wrong choice can be so frighting and so over whelming with fear and isolation.
What I mean by the statment above is. If we die believing a lie we will go to hell. And who ever goes there will not be able to escape. They will forever be tormented by Satan and his deomans for eternity.
So, What Is The One And Only True Religion?
The word religion means bondage. And that goes for all religions. It is following a set of strick rules and laws.
But, with God it is not a religion. It is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Our relationship with Jesus Christ is so important for our survival as the air tanks are to a deep sea scuba diver.
It goes like this. The ocean would represent the world around us. And the air tanks would represent Jesus Christ as our Savior.
Yes, this is how we need to see Jesus in this life on earth. That is similar to what Jesus was saying to us in John 8:31,32 and John 15:4-7. We are to abide in Jesus and God's word. Or we will die and spend eternity in hell.
Jesus Christ is the only person ever, to defeat the power of death and the grave. All the other religions all over the world are false religions. Why? Because, all their founders died and are still dead. But Jesus arose from the grave and defeated the power of death. I don't know about you? But, I will not believe in or worship a dead person or an idol made by human hands.
See, it goes something like this. If you want to live and rise from the dead then believe in the one who concord death. Jesus proved without a shadow of a doubt that He had the power to conquor deaths power to hold him in the grave. And paid the price for our sins. And will return for His followers soon. That is the one worth our worship.
Or, you can bow down and worship and believe someone who died and is still dead in the grave. Or worship idols made by human hands. You might as well put a toy in its place. That is all a idol made by human hands is anyway. A toy. If all a founder could offer their followers was his death and never arose from the grave. Then you can bet that is all you will get and that is you will remain in the grave. And we know that is not going to happen. Everyone of us will arise from the grave and face judgement one day.
I would like to share one more thought with you before I end this message.
The above also goes for those who don't believe in any religion. They will say that they don't believe in anything. But the fact still remains. They will still die one day. They can't make that fact go away, or wish it away. Death happens to everyone, Period.
And in everyone of us we all know deep inside our spirit that life does not end in the grave. Our spirit will live on forever, either in Heaven or Hell. If we like it or not. There is no way around it. We will face death and then spend eternity in either Heaven or Hell one day.
May God richly bless you and your family.

Sweet Sweet Love
Merry Christmas to everyone. Jesus Loves You.
Jesus taught us all how we should love and forgive one another with a pure heart. Everyone on the face of the earth craves to be loved and excepted. And many people are loved and excepted. But they will not allow anyone to love and except them because they drive people away because of their anger. They get angry over little things that causes people to want to avoid them and some times never to want to see them again.
Every one of us can remember back to a time in our life, that we said or did something to someone that we regret. Something that was not done out of a pure love or we could not forgive someone. And we now think back to that moment, and now we wish we could have one more chance to undo what we did that was wrong. And we know we can't undo our past mistakes. But, the question is, did we learn from our past mistakes? Not to get angry so easily. To be quick to forgive and slow to anger.
Everyone of us need to let Jesus rule our life and love and forgive everyone on earth. And the true love that I am talking about here is the true love that can only come from a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Our own love is corrupt and is very selfish. We give only to receive something in return. And if we don't get what we wanted and have it done our way we get mad. Even adults do this also.
See, each angry moment in our life is like a brick being placed on our back. And soon we have so many bricks weighing us down. We begin to be over burden and we start to sink into depression and anger. And that is were Jesus comes in our life and removes those bricks.
When we receive Jesus as our Lord and Savior. He will set us free from the burdens of sin. As a bird is released from its prison, the cage.
See, God saw that birds were beautiful creatures, so God made them trees to rest in. Man saw that birds was beautiful creatures, so man built them a cage. And sentence them to life in prison, in the cage, without parole.
Question? How can anyone see a bird in a cage, and not see the prison bars???
Anger drives people away from us. And soon it is too late to repair the damage that we caused. Anger destroys and love builds up and strengthens.
The only love we keep is the love we give away and share with others.
Listen closely, I know how we can not go to any Christian website or turn on a Christian TV program and they not ask us for our money. I will let you know right up front. I don't want your money. Keep it in your pocket. God is doing an awesome thing here at this blog site. This blog site is being viewed all around the world and it does not cost me a dime. It is not about money, it is all about Jesus Christ. Yes, you heard me right. If a ministry is of God, God will provide the means to complete the task. Praise God. I thought I would share that great news with you.
I pray that this blog site will be used by God to bring many souls to receive Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord. If you feel led by the Holy Spirit to say a prayer for this out reach please do so. I would forever be thankful.
Jesus said in Matthew 22:37-40 That love is the new commandment He gave us. And just to let you know, forgiveness also goes along with true love. We have to love and forgive everyone no matter how bad they treated us. Unforgiving someone holds us in chains to that sin of pride which turns out to be anger towards that person. As a dog is chained outside 24 hours a day never free to run and enjoy life. So it is with unforgiving and anger in our life.
The sweet love of Jesus Christ is the greatest freedom that anyone can ever know on earth, even into Eternity in Heaven. Jesus really Loves You. He Loves You so much that He died on a cross for your sins. And God raised Him from the dead on the 3rd day. Defeating the power of death over us. What Great Love He gives all of us. And all we have to do to receive this great love. Is to receive Jesus Christ as our Savior and the Lord of our life.
Feel free to watch the (Jesus Film) at the top of this blog site. Just click on the (Jesus Film) to watch it in your own language. It will truly inspire you. I have watched it many times. And I get blessed by it every time I watch it.
God has been working a great work within me. And He has began to change my heart in a great way. I have never in my 57 years on this earth felt so at peace and joyful as I do now. And He will do the same for you.
Faith is a very important in our Christian life with Jesus Christ. We can always be sure that no matter what we are going through in our life. Jesus is right there with us. Every step of the way. He will never leave us or forsake us.
Merry Christmas 2011
May God richly Bless you and your family.

The Road A Few Are Willing To Travel
A journey of joy, loneliness, freedom and pain. A journey where tears will flow, that gives hope to others.
The journey I'm describing here is about a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Have you ever sat in a park with Jesus and watch people walk by? Have you ever went on a walk with Jesus? I have. Just you and Jesus sharing each others thoughts.
Jesus is very real in my life. I talk to Him daily. It's very sad for me to know that many people only know Jesus as a person the Bible talked about. Sure that is true. But, you can have a real live personal relationship with Jesus. As He lives His life through you and you in Him.
Jesus is more to me then someone I just read about in the Bible who lived 2000 years ago. I know in my spirit that there are many people in the world who do not have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. They just believe in Him. But there is no communication. Only a dull belief. No real life to their relationship with Jesus. No prayer life.
I actually feel Jesus with me everyday in my life. I will actually be talking and singing to Jesus as I drive my car. And He will be talking to me by revealing verses to me through out the day. I think that is so cool.
Jesus says in the scriptures that He will never leave us or forsake us. Believe it or not. I don't want to leave Him either.
When I go to work I know that Jesus is right there with me. When Jesus told us to take up our cross and follow Him. He knew it wasn't going to be a easy journey. It will be a journey of joy at times and sorrows the next. It will be a journey of learning and teaching as He speaks to us and through us as we share Him with others.
It will be a journey of being a light unto the world. And being misunderstood by the world the next. It will be a life of helping others and being helped by others. A life of giving and receiving.
It will be a life journey of loving God above anything and everything. And loving everyone as we love our self. And learning how to forgive everyone who has done us wrong. And that also means forgiving and loving our enemies. And this journey will soon lead us home to Heaven. Where there is no more pain or evil and sickness. It will be total joy and happiness for ever and ever. For eternity.
Do you want to bless others? Invite your friends and family to come over to your house and watch the "Jesus Film" that is at the top of this blog site. Just scroll up to the top of this blog site and click on (View the "Jesus" film) and watch it in your on language. It will bless you and be a blessing to others.
May God richly bless you and your family, in Jesus Name I pray, Amen

The Flower That No One Saw
The blessings we receive by helping others. This is a story about how a born again believer might feel from time to time in their life. They spend long hours helping others and doing good works for the Kingdom of God. And then one day they feel like no one cares or notices how hard they are working reaching out to others in need.
This story begins in a lonely valley surrounded by mountains. And there stands all by itself a beautiful flower. Every day reaching to Heaven.
This flower stands strong everyday in the warmth of the sun giving off it's beauty to the world. And it seems as if no one notices it standing there day after day.
So it is with us. We work so hard to be a light unto the world. Helping others and doing good for the Glory of God by keeping our faith in action. Because we know from the scriptures that faith without works is dead.
And over a period of time we begin to start feeling a little let down and hurt because we feel like no one cares about what we are doing or notices what we are called to do for the Kingdom of God.
In Matthew 6:28,29 we read,
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Jesus said that God notices that flower. That no one else seems to notice.
So, this is how God notices you and what you are doing for His Kingdom. God never takes His eyes off of you. When you feel that no one else notices your efforts. God never takes His eyes off His children.
So, the message of this story is. Never ever feel that your work for God is done in vain. God has His eyes on you and is well pleased with you. God sees you and smiles. And what God sees in secret He rewards openly.

A Study Of The Lords Prayer
In (Matthew 6:9-15) we read;
9. After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11. Give us this day our daily bread.
12. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14. For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15. But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Let's study the meanings of each important word, that Jesus used in this prayer. It is so inspiring to know and understand what Jesus was trying to teach us here in this prayer.
The Prayer That The Lord Gave To His Disciples
1. Our Father - Recognizing who God is, our provider.
2. Who art in heaven - God is in heaven were no corruption or decay is. Where only pure love abides.
3. Hallowed be thy name - Hallowing God’s name means recognizing his holiness. He is perfect, and we are not.
4. Thy kingdom come - This world is not our home, God’s kingdom is coming soon to be set up on the earth.
5. Thy Will be done - Pray that God’s Will be done on earth, heaven, and in our lives. Not our Will's be done.
6. Give us this day our daily bread - We recognize that God is our provider and be thankful for everything He gives us daily.
7. Forgive our debts - Forgive us for all of our sins through Jesus Christ.
8. As we forgive our debtors - We must also forgive those who have sinned against us.
9. Lead us not into temptation - Do not let us be tempted beyond what we can endure.
10. But deliver us from the evil one - Do not let us be ensnared by the wiles of the devil.
11. Forgive others - As God is merciful, so must we be merciful to everyone else too.

Why Did God Actually Want To Harden Pharaoh's Heart
What does the scriptures mean in (Exodus 4:21) that "God harden Pharaoh's heart"? Can God or will God harden our hearts today?
In (Exodus 4:21) we read,
21. And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into Egypt, see that thou do all those wonders before Pharaoh, which I have put in thine hand: but "I will harden his heart", that he shall not let the people go.
Let's see what God has to say about this matter.
I believe that many people have scratched their heads trying to figure out what this verse means at one time or another in their life. When we are reading and studying God's word. We ask our self would God really harden someones heart? I know there are a times when I would question what this verse really meant. This verse has always made me wonder, when I read it, when I first gave my life to Jesus and just got Saved and received Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord.
The only way for us to understand what God is showing us here in this scripture is. We have got to understand the meaning of the words used to explain what God spoke back then, in the original text of their day.
See, in the English language the meaning of this verse in (Exodus 4:21) It says that "God harden Pharaoh's heart". But in the Hebrew language, it says that "God will let Pharaoh's heart wax bold or grow hard".
What God is revealing to us here in this verse is that Pharaoh, and it goes for us today? God will give us all our free will to choose, to turn our backs on what God says or to do what we want to do. It is totally left up to us to choose to become greedy and selfish or to help and comfort those who are down on their luck (a better word could have been used here instead of "luck". But you understand what I am trying to say here). We have the free will to do good or evil. Or to believe God or not. God won't and will not make us do anything. God allowed us the free will to choose between right or wrong.
So, God did not force Pharaoh to let His people go, God could have but He didn't, it was up to Pharaoh to make up his mind, and Pharaoh would not do it. So, each time Pharaoh rebelled against God, Pharaoh's heart was becoming harder and harder each time. So, if we want to live our life as we choose. God will not stop us from doing it. So, we are the ones who choose to harden our hearts towards God, each time we keep rejecting His warnings of the dangers of living sinfully.
See, from Adam and Eve and even to this day and time. God has always wished that people would do what is right. But, no one cares these days about what God has to say, they always want to do things their own way. So God says OK, do things the hard way. He says to us you are in control of your future and destiny to spend eternity in Heaven or Hell, do as you want. So, God will not force His will on anyone who lives on the face of the earth. So, He allows us all to harden our own hearts toward Him. Just the way Pharaoh did. Pharaoh chose to do things his way. And so do people today.
God will not force Himself up on us to make us choose to do things against our free will, to choose between good and evil. When someone sins, it opens up a window for Satan to keep coming back and attacking them over and over. Until that person repents of their sins and receives Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord. Then Jesus will close and lock and secure that window. So Satan can not enter that window again.
How You Can Know If A Person Has A Harden Heart Today?
The real evidence of a person who has harden their heart towards God is. They will always bring to light the sins of everyone else around them. To their friends and family. But at the same time, they will always blame their sinning on others. They will always blame others for what has happened in their life. Instead of taking the responsibly for their own decisions. And they know good and well, that no one can make them sin, they love to sin. That is why they stay there.
So they blame others so they can continue to do their sin(s). Hoping that people around them will feel sorry for them. And they will get a pat on the back from others saying, we understand? And it's OK for you keep on doing the sin that you love so much. That is the sign to look for, in anyone who has a "Very Hard Heart".
What Translation Of The Bible Is The Best?
People ask which Bible is the real translation of God's word? I say this, I thank God that He has allowed so many translations to have been written of the Bible. Why do I think this way?
OK, the reason I say this is, because it makes us all study Gods word for our self. Rightly dividing the word of God. God did not want us to have everything done for us. We all should prayerfully study and read God's word on a regular basis.
Jesus Loves You

The Heavens Declares Gods Glory (Psalms 19:1-4)
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”

The Great Deception - Sweeping The World Today
The greatest deception taking place today is coming into our living rooms 24 hours a day. I know you have seen it too.
The false prophets of today selling the blessings of God and getting rich using the name of Jesus. These false prophets knows how to make you give your hard earned money, by using your emotions. To make you feel as though you need to plant a seed, so you can receive a harvest. But is that what the Bible really teaches?
These wolves in sheep's clothing, knows how to twist the scriptures to make people believe that is what God is telling them to do. And the people do it without verifying what these false ministers are saying with the scriptures. These false teachers knows what to say to keep these people tuning in weekly on the TV, so they can continue to drain their followers bank accounts. They tickle their audience ears with receiving wealth using the method of non judgment teachings instead of confessing their sins to God.
See, the message of punishment for not repenting of their sins, will not bring in money. But teaching people how to get rich by giving money will.
What they are really teaching and offering their audience is things that will only parish. Not things that will last for eternity. Nothing about confessing their sins and getting right before God. That is the great deception. They teach wealth instead of giving an alter call. This is known as the "Seeker Friendly" approach to bring in more followers so they can make even more money.
And people are running to these meetings in droves world wide. Jesus did say this would happen in the last days in Matthew 7: 13,14. He said, wide is the path that leads to destruction and many would find it. But only a few will find the narrow path that leads to heaven.
So the job of these false teachers is to blind their followers with the love of money and avoid the penalty of not repenting of their sins. They just use enough of the name of Jesus in their messages to deceive the people to make them think, what they are teaching is from the word of God. By twisting scriptures. That way they can keep the cash flow coming in, and the more people they deceive, the more money they will make.
It is so wrong that these ministers who almost beg for our money, to build million dollar mega church buildings. Instead of feeding the poor people and the homeless people, that are even in their own neighbor hoods. This is so wrong, do you really believe they care about our souls? That money they spend to build mega church buildings could have clothed and fed 1000's of people. We need to pray for these ministers to be delivered from the spirit of greed. And start taking care of the poor people. That is what Jesus would do and told us all to do.
Jesus was tempted by Satan. Satan offered Jesus all the riches of this world and Jesus seen right through Satan's lies, and refused Satan's temptation. And I wounder why Jesus' followers today don't do the same? I truly believe that if a neighbor or a friend who are struggling to buy food or pay their bills, is were we should tithe. Instead of giving to these greedy ministers. That I believe is what Jesus would do. I just can't see Jesus giving money to the prosperity teachers of His days, the Pharisees. Do you? Jesus would help the needy.
Follow the teachings of Jesus and not the teachings of men will save you from a lot of heart aches later. OK.
I don't want your money at all, I just want you to see the truth. And I pray that you won't fall into temptation and to run into the shadows of this world's system and gimmicks. And don't let these false teachers of today, take your hard earn money. By selling you a blessing from God. So they can fatten their wallets. It is just like Jesus said it would be in the last days.
Jesus Loves You.
The false prophets of today selling the blessings of God and getting rich using the name of Jesus. These false prophets knows how to make you give your hard earned money, by using your emotions. To make you feel as though you need to plant a seed, so you can receive a harvest. But is that what the Bible really teaches?
These wolves in sheep's clothing, knows how to twist the scriptures to make people believe that is what God is telling them to do. And the people do it without verifying what these false ministers are saying with the scriptures. These false teachers knows what to say to keep these people tuning in weekly on the TV, so they can continue to drain their followers bank accounts. They tickle their audience ears with receiving wealth using the method of non judgment teachings instead of confessing their sins to God.
See, the message of punishment for not repenting of their sins, will not bring in money. But teaching people how to get rich by giving money will.
What they are really teaching and offering their audience is things that will only parish. Not things that will last for eternity. Nothing about confessing their sins and getting right before God. That is the great deception. They teach wealth instead of giving an alter call. This is known as the "Seeker Friendly" approach to bring in more followers so they can make even more money.

The Old And New Testament
The way the Bible was written. It reveals a truth that had to be inspired by God Himself.
The Old Testament points to the New Testament. And the New Testament points to the Old Testament. They both verify each other.
The Bible points to one person. The greatest person to ever walk on the face of the earth. And that person is Jesus Christ.
The Bible also tells the story of the greatest rescue mission that was ever pulled off with great success.
In Zechariah 12:2,3 we read,
2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in seige both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 And in that day I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
This Prophecy is taking place before our eyes today. When all nations will have their eyes on Gods city Jerusalem.
Did you know that this city has been destroyed 28 times in the past, and it still stands to this day? This is Gods land and He will defend it at all cost. Who can fight God and win? No one. Period. Did you know that this Prophecy can take place at any time? It is so close to being full filled. God will keep His word. Jerusalem will come out as Gods City of Glory. After God defeats all who comes against it to do harm to it.
I love this land. It is so beautiful. This city Jerusalem will one day in the near future become the capital of the world.
This is the city were Jesus pulled off the greatest rescue mission ever recorded in history. And it was so successful in every detail. And this was also the city that Satan lost the keys of death. He took the keys of death from Adam when he fell into sin when he ate the fruit. And now because Jesus rose from the dead. Jesus over came death and took the keys of death back from Satan.
Now Satan is very angry and trying to deceive as many people as he can, before he is cast into the lake of fire.

An Early Fathers Day Thanks
I would like to share with the world, that I truly feel that I am the most richest man on the face of the earth.Why? Because God has Blessed me with the most awesome sons that anyone could ask for.
Yes, My 3 sons, John, Scott and Wayland have made me so proud. It is an honor to be the dad of such great young men as these 3 guys.
So this message is my way of saying thanks for all the things you 3 have done for me over the years. And you all have always been there for me. Through the good times and the bad times.
I have come to realize at my age, that the richest person in the world is the person that has friends and family that truly loves them.
And I thank God for these beautiful gifts that He has Blessed me with and that God has seen fit to have chosen me to be their dad.
Love you guys and may God richly Bless you.
Love Dad
And I want to thank my Heavenly Father for saving me. Thank you Jesus

Hey everyone I thought I should bring this to your attention.
We all know that in the last days before Jesus returns that the Anti Christ will set up a one world government. Is the world getting prepared for this event. I was shocked when I seen this You Tube video. You be the judge and let me know what you think about this strange Air Line.
I was surfing the Internet when I stumbled across this (New Air Plane). Notice: the third plane coming in not the first two. This is very strange to see (ONE World) written on the side of it.

May God richly Bless you and your family.

Lord Separate Me From Anything That Separates Me From You
This message will be from Matthew 10:34-39
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
What the message of these verses are about is? If we put anyone before Christ we are not worthy of Him. And Jesus did not come to make our lives rich and easy on this earth. As many prosperity preachers teach today. That is not what Jesus taught in the Bible. Jesus said, He came to set us apart from those who are unbelievers. How is that going to happen? We the body of Christ will be rejected because of Him. We are to put Jesus first in our lives, and no one else is to be first in our lives, Period!!! This is what Jesus is saying here, not me...
What does Jesus mean when He said, Take up your cross and follow Him. Jesus also went on to say, that if you don't take up your cross and follow Him you are not worthy of Him. What is Jesus really saying here?
What Jesus is saying here is, that every believer is given a cross to bear. It could be answering the phones for a prayer out reach ministry. Or handing out food to the needed or any out reach for the kingdom of God. What ever it is, every believer has been given a personal cross to bear. And we are to take our personal cross that God has given us and take it where ever we go for the rest of our life on this earth. We are to keep it with us at all times. 24/7, 365 days a year.
Then Jesus said a very strange thing. He said, if we try to save our lives we will lose it. What Jesus saying here is, if we would surrender our life to Him and trust Him only and trust nothing else. We will find our life and will not lose it.
What this means is, we must trust Jesus for every thing. You are not to trust your job or income. If for some reason you lost your job. God will bless you with another job. He will take care of you. Jesus must be first in your life and He will definitely take care of you and meet every need you have. But you must trust Him and nothing else.
What we need to learn here is the power of spiritual growth and truth. And that is, what ever Jesus allows in our lives is fine with us. We put our total trust in Him and Him along. And we trust no one else or material things what so ever. It's Jesus we trust even with our very life. There is no room for half hearted trust here, like our job first and Jesus second. It is Jesus all the way, not our job. This is the true faith that every true believer in Christ should have.
Now I come to the conclusion. That is, even if I die today I will trust Jesus. Because I know that death is only a door into the next life. Where there will be no more pain or tears. I know I will be in a place of total peace and happiness no more worries. For ever and ever...
It is kinda like a Caterpillar. See a Caterpillar spends all it's life crawling and never seeing the whole picture of the beauty that life has to offer. It lived it's life crawling searching for food (working) and trying to avoid the dangers of life that is all around it. Not knowing the full meaning of life. That there is a better life just on the horizon. And then one day it gets the call from within that something is about to happen. And it starts preparing for the future and starts building a cocoon. It is about to die.
And then one day it breaks out of it's cocoon or (casket) and low and behold. It enters into a glorious life that it never knew existed. Now for the first time in it's life, it can fly above the world it came from. And with all amazement it is not limited to crawling on it's belly. Now it is totally free to fly and travel with ease.
That is what happens to the Christians when we die. We will be able to fly above the world of pain and sorrow that we spent all our lives in. And now, low and behold we will see for the first time the beauty of what life was really meant to be. And the pain and sorrows of this life are gone forever and ever.
All the Caterpillar did was pass from one life into a better realm of life. Death is only a door way into a better life for those who are saved and have received Jesus as their personal Saviour and Lord. We will pass into a realm of life that is far beyond anything we could ever imagine in this life we know on earth.
Did you know that in the Bible it says, that we should weep for someone who is born. Why? Because of the pain and sorrow that they are about to go through in their life. And it says that we should rejoice when someone passes away who got saved and received Jesus as their Saviour and Lord. Because all their suffering is over and they will live eternally in peace and happiness with Jesus.
That is the reason that God will not bless us with so much worldly riches that we will love our life on earth more then we look forward to going to Heaven to be with the Lord. Because the love of wealth will soon blind us and cause us to become so comfortable here on earth. That we will soon forget to pray and thank God for His daily blessings that He gives us.
We read in Proverbs 30:7-9 where it says for us to pray for God to place us to be in the middle ground. Between being rich and being poor.
7 Two things have I required of thee; deny me them not before I die:
8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:
9 Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.
We are to thank God that we are not rich and we are not poor. We are to thank God for placing us in the middle ground of not being rich but not being poor also.
Why are we allowing ourselves to be deceived by prosperity ministers? Jesus said, in the last days even the elect will be deceived.
Jesus did not come to give us riches on earth. He came to save us from our sins.
I don't care what these prosperity preachers say. That is not what Jesus died and rose from the grave for, Period!!! These prosperity preachers only teach their doctrine of men to those who have itchy ears for wealth on earth. These modern prosperity preachers want to sell the gospel by having you buy their DVDs Cd's and Books that they write from the minds of men not God. So they can fatten their wallets and live the life of kings and queens on earth. At the cost of their congregation.
And if that is not bad enough. They also try to take it one step farther if you don't buy their items. They say, send for their free book or Cd. The reason they do this is, once they get your address, now they will continue to send your their sales letters so they can continue to try to sell you their other products.
They have turned the house of God into a house of skilled marketing.
The Gospel should not be sold. Jesus never charged anyone a dime to save them and teach them. The Bible says, What you freely received, freely give.
The truth is, A wolf in sheep's clothing... Is still a wolf...
It makes me sick at my stomach that these prosperity preachers can not end their services without trying to sell everyone something. That is not what Jesus called us to do. I pray that God opens the eyes of these prosperity ministers and reveals to them their spirit of greed and that they turn back to their first love. And that first love was to share the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ without adding a price tag on the end of their message.
We all should go to church to hear the spirit filled message and bring our sins before God and repent of our sins. Not to place our money in the wallets of these prosperity preachers. We can not pay our way out of sin.
Remember, Jesus over turned the tables of the money changers when He walked this earth. The tables were in the house of God and these tables was over flowing with money that people gave to the prosperity preachers of their days. And I truly believe with my whole heart, that Jesus would do the same today to these mega churches that teach the prosperity message of men not God. John the Baptist told us what God told us to do and what these prosperity preachers should do today also. And that is, Jesus must increase and we must decrease. Not that our wallets should increase.
It is so bad today, that people who go to these mega churches feel guilty if they don't give some money to these church leaders. That is not the Gospel of the Bible. That is the deception of the devil taught through the mouth of men.
Remember, when Peter was talking to Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane not to go to Jerusalem and be crucified. Peter was a believer meaning good. But what did Jesus say to Peter? He said, get thee behind me Satan. It was Satan speaking through Peter a follower of Christ. Peter a true believer in Christ and Satan was using him. And Peter did not know that Satan was using him at that moment. But Jesus noticed it right away. So it is with these Prosperity Preachers today. No where in the Bible does it say, we are to pay for the Gospel and fatten preachers wallets.
God will not bless you or me or anyone else, with the things of this world that will cause us to take our eyes off of Him. NO MATTER WHAT THESE PROSPERITY PREACHERS TELLS YOU!!! These prosperity preachers would only tell you different so they can continue their CASH FLOW. I will repeat myself here. A wolf in sheep's clothing is still a wolf.
We need to stand firm as the body of Christ and get our minds and eyes off of wanting the riches of this world more then we want Jesus. We can not serve two masters. And when Jesus spoke these words, he meant them. Jesus did not waste words. Everything He said, was meant for a reason.
What I am trying to say is? When we pray we need to stop praying for God to give us this and that. Instead we need to pray as Jesus prayed, when he ask God to remove the cup from Him. Jesus ask God for something and then He said (Not my will, but your will be done)... Jesus knew how to pray and how to get prayers answered. And here he gave us the true example of praying for God's will to be done, a total trust in God to give us what is best for us.
Some times when we pray we sound like spoiled brats wanting this and that. It's like we are in a candy store wanting everything we see. How sad, but true...
God knows what is best for us. And He will not answer any prayers that will wind up hurting us or someone else in the end. And He will not answer any prayers that will not Glorify Him. Period!!!
See God is so caring and He will not give us things because we like the things of this world more then we Love Him. We got it backwards. We must first seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness then and only then will these things be added unto us. It's not the other way around. That is what the Bible says, not me...
It's time for the body of Christ, all believers, to drop the whats in it for me attitude. And seek the things of God. Jesus did it and so should we... And in doing so, Jesus will meet all our needs and take good care of us. It's not about us. It's all about Jesus.
Jesus Loves You.
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

God will not bless you or me or anyone else, with the things of this world that will cause us to take our eyes off of Him. NO MATTER WHAT THESE PROSPERITY PREACHERS TELLS YOU!!! These prosperity preachers would only tell you different so they can continue their CASH FLOW. I will repeat myself here. A wolf in sheep's clothing is still a wolf.
We need to stand firm as the body of Christ and get our minds and eyes off of wanting the riches of this world more then we want Jesus. We can not serve two masters. And when Jesus spoke these words, he meant them. Jesus did not waste words. Everything He said, was meant for a reason.
What I am trying to say is? When we pray we need to stop praying for God to give us this and that. Instead we need to pray as Jesus prayed, when he ask God to remove the cup from Him. Jesus ask God for something and then He said (Not my will, but your will be done)... Jesus knew how to pray and how to get prayers answered. And here he gave us the true example of praying for God's will to be done, a total trust in God to give us what is best for us.
Some times when we pray we sound like spoiled brats wanting this and that. It's like we are in a candy store wanting everything we see. How sad, but true...
God knows what is best for us. And He will not answer any prayers that will wind up hurting us or someone else in the end. And He will not answer any prayers that will not Glorify Him. Period!!!
See God is so caring and He will not give us things because we like the things of this world more then we Love Him. We got it backwards. We must first seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness then and only then will these things be added unto us. It's not the other way around. That is what the Bible says, not me...
It's time for the body of Christ, all believers, to drop the whats in it for me attitude. And seek the things of God. Jesus did it and so should we... And in doing so, Jesus will meet all our needs and take good care of us. It's not about us. It's all about Jesus.
Jesus Loves You.

School Is Over For Today. Now It Is Time To Go To Work.
Looking back over the years from 1984 till today. I am absolutely amazed how God has used me to reach a small part of the world for His Glory. Thanks be to Jesus, He is touching many people world wide for His Glory.
The vision that God has given me to do until He comes again is from the Bible in John 4:35.
Verse 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.
And this vision is the same vision that Jesus passed on to us, even to this day. This is an urgent vision and calling from Jesus for the body of Christ, world wide today. The harvest fields are ripe, it is time for the body of Christ to get busy and go to work in the fields. And share what they have learned in church. School (the church) has let us out for today. Now we need to go to work and share what we have learned, to a dieing and hurting world. Let us go to work and share Jesus today.
See, Christians are like sponges. They go to church and soak up all they learn. And then they read God's word the Bible and buy Cd's and DVDs and books from ministers sharing the message about the love of Jesus. But they are not sharing what they are learning with others. Do you know that a sponge can not soak up anymore liquid until it is squeezed out. Than and only than can it soak up some more liquid.
It is the same with us as Christians. We must share what we have learned about Jesus with others. It's like squeezing out of the sponge (sharing the Gospel) so we can learn more and grow in the knowledge and wisdom of God.
See, we need to get busy in the great harvest fields doing God stuff. Jesus wants us to be in the great harvest fields helping each other bring in the harvest while there is still time.
This is not the time for us the body of Christ to get relaxed and stay in our comfort zones. It is not the time for us to just go the Church and hear the beautiful message about how much Jesus Loves us. And then return to our homes only to turn on the TV and watch a football game or soap opera or play a video games. Or start texting our friends and talk about foolish things that doesn't really make any sense and in reality it is only a bunch of foolish talk anyway. We need to start sharing Jesus with a dieing and hurting world while there is still time to reach the lost for Christ.
We as the body of Christ need to be a vital part of His calling in our lives. And share His message of Hope and Salvation with everyone we meet in our lives.
We can do this by using the things we use on a daily basis. Like our iPhones the Internet, emails and many other devises to get the message out about Jesus. Just get busy and start were you are and start sharing Jesus today. Will you go to work today and get into the harvest fields and start sharing the good news about Jesus?
Start participating in outreach programs that are active in the fields for the Kingdom of God.
It is so easy for any of us to come home and kick off our shoes and turn off the world and act like we don't know what is going on out side our doors.
But, deep down in our spirit we know that God has called us to get busy in His field that is ripe for the harvest, before it is too late.
We can even go on a prayer walk in our neighborhood or a prayer drive in our cars and pray for the homes we pass along the way. Just do something for Jesus today. You can hand out Gospel tracts. Or leave Gospel tracts behind where ever you go.
Did you know? That it has been estimated that 95 per cent of Americans have never experienced the joy of leading someone to Christ Jesus.
Well I will end with this thought. Time on earth as we know it today is moving rapidly to the grand climax of Jesus returning to gather His children. My heart prayer is for the body of Christ to get busy today and start sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a hurting and dieing world.
Will you go to work for Jesus Christ today?
May God richly Bless you and your family in Jesus Name I pray, Amen...

The Army Of God Stands Ready To defend You
I would like to share with you and let you know that Gods army is standing ready all about you. Ready to defend you on a moments notice.
God at all times around the clock. Day or night watches over you. The devil has no chance to break through the legions of Gods army that encircles you 24 hours a day.
Always remember this, God will never leave you or forsake you. And know this also, God fears nothing. And Satan trembles when he hears the name of Jesus. Satan also trembles when he knows that you are on your knees before God in prayer.
Remember, Our faith activates God, and our fears activates the devil.
In the Bible in 1 Kings 6:13-17 we read a beautiful story about how God takes care of His people.
13 And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.
14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
The king of Syria sent a huge army after one of Gods men, Elisha. Yes, that's right for just one man of God.
If there was ever a person who should have been scared to death. It would have been Elisha.
And we read that Elisha's servant was so scared. That he ask Elisha what are we going to do?
Elisha and his servant has just been surrounded by their enemies on all sides. And there was no way for them to escape. They are going to die at the hands of their enemies.
And Elisha said to his servant, Fear Not. Don't be afraid. Elisha told his servant, they that are with us, are more than they that are with our enemies.
Elisha prayed that God would open his servants eyes. So he could see beyond the natural realm into the invisible spiritual realm.
See today, we can not see into the spirit realm and see how huge the army of God is all around us 24 hours a day. Ready to protect us from our enemies on a moments notice. We as Christians and followers of Christ Jesus must believe and have faith in God and His Divine protection at all times.
If we could see through the veil of our faith into the spirit realm. This is what we would see. The same thing that Elisha's servant saw.
Here is what Elisha's servant saw. His servant saw with amazement, that the mountains all around them was full of horses and chariots on fire. Ready to defeat their enemies that had surrounded them.
Elisha saw by faith God's protecting power. God's army was standing ready to defeat their enemies. God is doing this very same thing for you today. You must except it and believe by faith. God has got your back 24 hours a day. Don't worry just pray and believe and God will take care of the rest.
Just believe and have faith that God will not let you down. God will not fail or be defeated ever. And you and I must believe this truth with all our hearts, souls and minds.
I pray that this message will help you grow in your faith in God's almighty power of protection.
May God richly bless you and your family in Jesus Name I pray, Amen... Jesus Loves You.
