Standing The Gap As Watch Parents

As Christian parents, mothers and fathers we must be committed to praying for our children and lifting them up to the Lord daily. Our world is becoming increasingly more complex, violent and dangerous. The days of the past are long gone and as the seasons have changed, our world and communities are fast changing. Morals, character and integrity are constantly being challenged. Violent crimes, drug abuse and gang violence has spread dramatically. Our schools that once had a few bullies here and there have at times become war zones with people shooting students, faculty and the use of automatic weapons on campus's have replaced the antics of rubber band guns and spit wads. We must as believers cover our children, schools and communities with prayer.
 
There are blessings in the prayers of praying dads and moms.

Quote Of The Day

The words that you speak can bring blessings or curses upon you. Be wise, and speak forth blessings into your future. The opposite is like casting your line into life's ocean of sand, expecting to catch a fish.
 
Words are powerful. Use them wisely.

By Many Infallible Proofs

To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

The Passion of Christ was shown in Christ's death on the cross at Calvary. Jesus paid the ultimate price. This Humble King that laid His life down as a randsome for many. For truly we have been bought with a price.

Beaneath The Human Shell

What aroma do you put off. Do you have a sweet loving aroma about you. Are you sincere, truthful, loving, compassionate or do you smell liked rotten spoiled eggs? An egg yoke is protected by a shell. In side that shell is where the yoke is found. What's beneath you're shell?
 
We should all have a wonderful beautiful aroma about us, and not that of spoiled rotten eggs.

The Great God Debate

When it comes to debates, there have been many over the generations. People have been debating things for centuries to include life after death, religions, cultures, UFOs (ha ha) and many other things. Today there are worldwide debates going on over various topics, like the enviorment for one. Yet what is the greatest debate of all times. I decided to Google the words great debate and this came up,  Results 1 - 10 of about 45,100,000. Imagine that?
 
I'd say that God has been debated more times than anything. Is there a God, everyone asks at one time in their life. Funny part of it is, is that we all wonder how this all happened and how we got here. We look into the night sky with wonder and amazement. We see pictures of the universe, the solar system, planets, stars and simply in awe wonder. Then we read in the Bible:
 
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
 
Before you decide, make sure you read the Bible from cover to cover.

It's a new day. Smile and be happy. Don't let the yesterdays of life ruin your todays. Enjoy today and make the best of it and look forward to tomorrow being an even better day.

How Do You Define Terroism

We've all heard about terrorism. It didn't start with 911 and the attacks against The United States. It started long ago. Even back in the days of Christ it was present and long before. Just imagine being taken hostage and fed to lions. Just imagine being taken hostage and forced to fight another human being to the death.
 
What about what was done right here in the United States. What about the Indian Nations, the wars? What about the slave trade and what was done to the people of the African nation that were brought here in chains and irons? What about abortion? Do not all these things qualify as terrorism?
 
I guess it depends upon how you look at it. I would imagine that even the people of Iraq, the everyday citizens, the mothers, father and children were terrorized. Just imagine a bomb killing your entire family and your just a child. I would imagine that every time a bomb falls on the innocent, they feel terrorized. So what is a terrorist? Is it a group of people that blow people up, blow up cars to kill people, that attack hotels, take hostages and so on? Yes, that is definitely a form of terrorism.
 
Personally, I feel that anytime a human being's life is being threatened regardless of the reason or so called justification. That is terrorism. Life, all life, should be held with the very highest of regards, respected, protected at all cost, not taken by acts of terror. And to sacrifice the innocent to root out the evil, is a great sin.
 
Love conquers all things, love overcomes all things, for love not killing, is the greatest of all gifts.

God Projects In The Fast Lane

Have you ever noticed how many times we seem to get into high gear before we shift from 1st to 2nd to 3rd and to 4th. This happens in churches, in ministries and in our personal lives. Personally I have found God, my walk with God and the Christian life to be season after season of change and that God is in no hurry. Considering that Christ died upon the cross over 2,000 years ago and countless generations and seasons have unfolded, that in it's self proves that God is a patient God. After all, God could have judged the world 1,000 years ago and called His Bride home, yet here we are, still awaiting the second coming of Christ.
 
Many times, we just flat out get in a hurry. We get so far ahead of God, His plans and His purposes that we are creating our own agenda's while thinking and believing we are in God's Perfect Will. I've oftened wondered this in regards to the size of our online ministry which has grown to over 150 separate ministry blogs, not counting all the other blogging communities that we are involved within. Yet and again, I feel this overwhelming call to share the love of Christ and His Redeeming Passion with the world.
 
Sometimes God Projects in the fast lane are fruit full. Thank God when the Holy Spirit is involved.

The Fruit Of Compromises

Jesus spoke of the man who built his house on solid foundation vs. the man that built his house on sand. One was built on rock solid foundation, while the other was not. Jesus went on to say that the house built on the solid foundation could withstand difficult times, that the winds could blew and the house would remain, but that the house built on sand would not stand and great would be the fall of it. Just imagine the endless situations and circumstances that this application could apply to.
 
Sometimes it's possible to start out on solid foundation and slowly be moved to unstable foundation. One way for this to happen is through compromise. We all occasionally compromise, however if we continue to walk in compromise it can cause a shift and that shift can lead to unstable grounds.
 
When this happens, we must examine situations, ourselves, and the path that we have taken. For it's easy to get off course in today's world.
 
There are blessings found in the straight and narrow.

The Sound Doctrine Test

As Christian's and especially babes in Christ. We must always be careful of what we are chewing on. If it doesn't line up with God's Word, we might just find that we are chewing on meat that is not from God. That's why it's so important to read and study God's Word. Otherwise we might find ourselves receiving another gospel, and following the teachings of men that are not scriptural.
 
There are blessings in reading, studying and understanding God's Word.

Expecting Others To Make Up For Our Own Decisions

We all have expectations. Sometimes we place expectations on others that others can't meet. Sometimes we just flat out expect others to meet our needs and the truth is that we are placing burdens on others. For example: someone overeats all the time, they eat junk food, they snack on candies and refuse to control there eating habits. They lay around and refuse to exercise and this goes on for months and months and months. They see the affects of their own desires and refusal to apply wise counsel, the counsel of others, yet. Then when nature has taken it's course and the pounds add up, they blame others and expert others to change their lifestyle to meet their needs.
 
Well that is just one of hundreds of examples that we could use, however the end result is that the person that created their very own situation expects others to fix it. It just doesn't work that way, and to expect others to change their lifestyle in order to fix the very problem that their own decision brought forth is not reality.
 
Every person should be accountable for his own decisions and actions and not attempt to blame others.

The Dangers Of Gossip

Gossip is dangerous. It does not produce Godly fruit. It wounds others, created strife and is like a fire that can quickly burn out of control.
 
The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips. Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
 
Blessings are upon those whom do not gossip.

Resting In God

I love to rest in God. Life comes with many different challenges and sometimes those challenges can overwhelm us. Over the years I've learned a very important fruit of the Spirit. Patience! Within such, I've learned to rest in God, to not respond so quickly or become easily offended by situations. I simply take a deep breath and start praying when situations arise. When we rest in God, we find God's peace, wisdom and counsel flowing and that simply calms the storms. It helps us to put things into perspective.
 
Let me encourage you to rest in God when things seem to overwhelm you. Remember, yesterday is gone, today is here, and tomorrow will take care of it's self. Allow Jesus to calm the storms, and allow the Holy Spirit to minister peace to you.
 
Blessings are found in resting in God.

Marketing Christianity

Have you ever asked yourself what is the business of the Kingdom. Jesus said that He was about His Father's business. Jesus also called the money changers and those selling merchandise out side of the Temple, some pretty harsh things.
 
When you read the Bible and the accounts of Jesus and the Apostles, what do you find? Do you find a huge marketing concept? Do you find a huge merchandising concept? Did Jesus and the Apostles set up store fronts, open business and market God's Word, Salvation, Redemption and charge admission on the Day Of Pentecost.
 
Yet today, church's are big business. I've been pondering that a lot lately, wondering if such things are being about the Father's business.

Micro Managing Kingdom Authority & Principles

Every church that I have ever attended had a prayer ministry. Prayer is one of the heart beats of church. Prayer is important, and Jesus said "My House shall be called a house of prayer". There are many scriptures in the Bible that speak of prayer from the book of Genesis to the book of Revelations. There are many accounts of Christ praying, the Apostles praying, and also many accounts within the old testament about prayer.
 
Prayer in many ways is the lifeline of our communication with God. Through prayer we communicate with God, make our requests known to Him, enter into His presence and stand the gap as watchmen for others. It is good to pray for others. In fact, it is a humble privilege to pray for others.
 
In the book of Acts prayer and the laying on of hands are mentioned in various sections of scripture. In many church's today prayer and the laying on of hands is actively pursued and the ministry of the Holy Spirit flows freely.
 
Actually God made prayer very simple. It doesn't take some spiritual giant to pray for people. It just takes a willing vessel to step out in faith and allow the Holy Spirit to be the Holy Spirit. It's when fear, lack of faith, a religious spirit, the precepts of men and having a good church service show gets in the way and hinders the Holy Spirit, that prayer ministries become inaffective. That well scripted situations.
 
It amazes me how we sometimes turn the Kingdom of God into this well micro managed process as if we could add something to it. It amazes me how we sometimes take the simplest of things and make them difficult and within that process diminish the power of such. It also amazed me how we have ears to hear, eye's to see, the doctrine and teachings of the Apostles, yet we create new doctrines.
I somehow don't think Jesus had that in mind.

The Ware Zone Of Every Christian

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
 
I'm not going to write about the above scripture other than to say this. When you find yourself in a battle consider the above scripture and the following scripture.
 
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
 
Now read Eph 6:11-18

Blessings to each of you!

As The Years Unfold

As Christians, our walk with God will encounter many seasons. There will be seasons of joy and seasons of occasional heartache, there will be seasons of peace and seasons where peace seems far from us. There will be seasons of great abundance and seasons of lack. There will be seasons whereas God is ever so close and seasons when God seems far and distant. Within these seasons and many other seasons that we will walk in and through, there is one thing that we must know and fully trust in. That God will never leave us or forsake us. That God loves us and cares for us, and that we are His beloved.
 
Blessings in the eternal love of God.

Rising Above Potential Disasters

Just imagine if your house was not built on concrete, but rather sand. Things could become very unstable at any given time. A earthquake could occur, or a winter storm. There could be a flood, or even a mudslide. The results could be very bad. Just imagine all the potential possibilities for disaster if your house was built on sand. Now imagine your life being built on sand.
 
Here are the words of Jesus on the matter. Life changing words that are over 2,000 years old, yet eternal.
 
Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
 
They key is reading, knowing and understanding the sayings of Jesus.

Thank God For Worship

I love music. Over the years and before becoming a Christian, I listened to various types of music. From easy listening to that good old rock and roll. Then the days and seasons came when I was introduced to praise and worship music through attending a local church. I came to love praise and worship music and over the years have put together quite a collection of various artists and songs.
 
More importantly something happened deep inside of me through the years of not just listening to praise and worship music, but experiencing it. You might ask what that means? Well what I learned is that when you worship the Lord God through praise and worship from the depths of your heart, God shows up, heaven comes to earth and you experience God's love and presence in great abundance.
 
You see, God planned it that way. There is such a wonderful and beautiful fellowship that takes place when one seeks the Lord through praise and worship. Heaven truly comes to earth. The very sweetness of God filled with love and compassion. Just imagine God, inhabitting your very praises !
 
Blessings, in the love of God

Sending Gifts Of Love

I realize that we are far from the Christmas Holidays. However I wanted to make mention of all the wonderful organizations that collect toys for children and send them off to the children of the world. One that comes to mind is Operation Christmas which is a wonderful way to share the gift of love. There are many great organizations out there that truly do a great job.
 
Put a smile on a child's face this holiday season and donate to a worthy ministry or organization of your choice.

Make That Call, Send That Letter

Is there someone that you've lost contact with? Maybe a old high school friend, maybe a old co worker, maybe a relative or close close family member? We all get busy and the freeway of life just seems to consume our time. Grandparents, uncles, aunts, best friends and people that we've spent time with just seem to fall onto the back burners of our life. Many times we are reminded of those people in thought. We make plans to contact them, but life's freeway once again consumes us. Maybe the Holy Spirit is putting someone on your heart right now. Take time and make that call. You just might put a smile on some one's face.
 
Blessings, in Christ.
 

We All, Can Make A Difference

Remember, we all can make a difference. In our homes, in our communities, with our families, on the job and at every corner. Each one of us has something to add to our world to make it a better place. Take time and make time to make a difference, a positive difference in the lives of others. Be a blessing to others and encourage them with your love and friendship.

The Winds Of God's Favor

I love the favor of God. Whenever God's favor touches a situation, things change. Just imagine the very favor of God touching your life and life sitautions. Your family, your marriage, your children, your home, your finances. What about your health, that employer, and every other matter before you. Yes, God's favor can change things. You see, God is full of love, compassion, mercy and wisdom. God's favor comes like waves of a heavenly wind blowing and when that wind blows heaven comes to earth.

Seek and we find, knock and the doors are opened and prayer changes things.

Blessings, in Christ

The Words Of The Apostle Peter

Act 2:14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: Act 2:15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.
Act 2:16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
Act 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
Act 2:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
Act 2:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
Act 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
