Come Together As Brothers & Sisters

In a world that's so cold and unforgiving, we in the Body of Christ should stick together at all times. Life in this world for anyone is tough and unrelenting but it's even worse for those of us in God's Kingdom. We drone about as aliens upon the earth, longing for home but are awaiting the arrival of our captain, that is Jesus Christ, to come and carry us off to the Great and Mighty one and to our long waiting salvation. To make it through and across the victory line it is imperative that we come together as often as we can as brothers and sisters.

Many of us attend Church quite frequently throughout the week (as we always should) and so many times after the service is over, many are rushing out the door, back out to the hustle and bustle of the world. My Pastor often says, "Why are so many in a hurry to get back out to hell?" and I agree with him. Stop! Take a breather! Slow down! Don't be in such a rush to leave the presence of God and to leave the company of your brothers and sisters. Stay a while. Strengthen them and allow them to strengthen you. Enjoy each other's company in the presence of God.

But our banding together in the Body of Christ shouldn't only be done at the building called the Church. We should also come together as often as we can outside the Church walls because that's where the real problems occur and where we are hit and affected the most.  Be like the Churches in the New Testament. There were very few believers during that time (like 60 in a city of 250,000), so they made it a priority to come together and they met in each others homes. Now if anyone who is reading this, and is anything like me, then you probably don't want 60 people in your house which is understandable and our society doesn't really permit us to all come together and live in one community, that would be a bit cult like. But if you could just get together with 3 or 4 different people and just come together in the presence of the Lord, that would make a huge difference and you don't have to just stay in the house, you can go somewhere and have fun and the Lord will be right there with you. I feel as though there's a big misconception among people when it comes to the Body of Christ; like we don't know how to have fun. I don't know about anybody else but i'm having the time of my life living under the will of God and i'm sure it's the same for many others.

So come together with your brothers and sisters. Reach out and meet some new people in the Body of Christ. Go out together to the highways and byways and spread the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And enjoy this beautiful life our Father has created and blessed us with!

God Bless!

God Will Give You Whatever You Need

He is Jehovah Jireh! Our Provider!

Whatever you need is right in the hands of God. All you have to do is reach out by faith and grab a hold of it. Being in a world where there seems to be trouble, stress and grief at every turn, we often forget who our Father is; sometimes we forget that He is a prayer answering, need meeting God. If only we would shake ourselves of the doubt and unbelief, come to our senses and realize that God is still in the business of providing for His Children, He always has been and He always will be.

Jesus fed the thousands! You think He can't feed you? God sent the Israelites the food of angels in the middle of the desert! You think He doesn't know where you are and is incapable of meeting your need? Jesus raised a woman's son from the dead! You think He can't pick you up out of your pit? God is more than able! He is more than capable and He is willing and ready to provide! So why don't you take a step of faith, like Abraham, and trust God today! He is the leader and captain of your soul.

There is nothing that God wouldn't do for you! There's nothing that God would deny you of! He proved that to you on the cross! He proved to us that everything is ours! Including His Son! Jesus is ours and we are His! When you come to God in the name of Jesus, be ready to receive. Their is nothing that God won't do for Jesus, so there is nothing that God won't do for you, who are coming before Him, in the name of Jesus. God will give all good things in accordance with His will.

So many times and all too often I hear people complaining (mostly Christians) about this, that and the other and as I look at them I think to myself, "Aren't you supposed to have faith? Don't you know who are Father is? He is Yahweh! He is He who created the earth and everything in it in 7 days! You think He can't turn your situation around." We in the Body of Christ are supposed to have faith in God. Knowing that He supplies our need. Knowing that He hears our prayers and the answer is on its way. It's a slap in the face to God to sit back and worry. Like He is incapable of moving and producing a miracle. Like His arm is too short or too weak to save us and turn the tables in our favor. God knows what you need before you even ask, so just believe and receive, there is absolutely no need in worrying. Worrying produces nothing but grief, stress and anxiety but faith produces miracles, blessings and joy. So take your pick. You can either choose to worry or to have faith and I for one think that having and living by faith is so very much easier.

God didn't say that He is I Am for no reason. He is all that you need. You need a blessing? God says, "I AM!" You need a financial breakthrough? "God says, "I AM!" You need a miracle? "God says, "I AM!" Trust in the Great I Am! He has it all under control. Our Father takes good care of His children, so just believe in Him today.

Since the beginning of time God has been providing and He hasn't stopped.

For example in 2 Kings 4, God sends a word and feeds the hundreds. 2 Kings 4:42-44 "A man came from Baal Shalishah, bringing the man of God twenty loaves of barely bread baked from the first ripe grain, along with some heads of new grain. "Give it to the people to eat," Elisha said. "How can I set this before a hundred men?" His servant asked. But Elisha answered, "Give it to the people to eat. For this is what the Lord says: "They will eat and have some left over." Then he set it before them, and they ate and had some left over, according to the word of the Lord."

God will provide for you, even if He has to deliver you your blessing by way of ravens. So just trust in God. God will give you whatever it is that you need.

God Bless!

Have Faith

On your walk with God along the path of righteousness it is imperative that you have faith!

Faith can move mountains! Faith gets prayers answered! Faith brings the presence of God into your life! Faith sends the devil running in the opposite direction! So just have faith!

I know that sometimes it is easier said and done. I've been there myself plenty of times. In this life, troubles seems to be around every corner. You wake up some mornings and every thing is great and then the next day it's hell. People are anxiety ridden, anxious, nervous, fearful, worried, struggling, suffering, sighing and dying; but through it all we have to hold on to the precious gift that God has given us to make it through this life, from day to day and that gift is faith.

We are to have faith in God no matter what; He is the Great and Mighty One and He is faithful to His Word and to His children! When you don't have no one to depend on, have faith and always remember that God is still on His Throne! There are going to be times on this path of righteousness where you bury your head in your pillow and cry yourself to sleep, but don't ever give up! Those who have faith in God endure til the end, even if it hurts to the very core. There are going to be times when you are singing a cheery tone at noon on top of the mountain, but there are also going to be times where everything may seems like it crumbling and you have nothing to stand on and are in the depths of the valley, but don't give up and don't fall weak, when you have nothing left but Jesus Christ, you have enough left to start all over again. Have faith!

So don't let life's pitfalls and stress drag you down and cause you to lose sight of who you are. You are child of God! A child of the King! There is nothing that He can't do! And for us, who have faith in His Son, Jesus Christ, there is nothing that He won't do for us. So just believe in God! Trust in God! Trust in His Son! Trust the Holy Spirit! Have faith in God! His arm is not too short or weak to save you. God is mighty! He is powerful beyond what our feeble human minds can imagine or understand! Be strengthened and refined through you fiery trials. That's what they're meant for. God has it all under control! HAVE FAITH!!!

God Bless
