Month: January 2023

Hello my most wonderful World Wide Family. I love you all so very much. It is so great to be talking to you at this very early hour in the morning. If you ever feel totally alone, abandoned or wonder if anyone is praying for you, please know that I am praying for YOU and so are Christians all over the world. Of course I don’t know YOU by name and I don’t know your personal need but I do know the God Who does!

When I, and other Christians pray for your salvation, GOD is always doing His Work and calling YOU unto Himself. When we pray for your protection and the protection of all of your generations, it is GOD Who is protecting YOU. When we pray for YOU to be provided for, it is GOD Who uses the resources in whatever country you live in and provides for YOU and your family. GOD is always right there with YOU, YOU are never alone. Won’t YOU please repent of your sins, give Him your life and start this New Year off with a personal relationship with Him and make Him the LORD and Savior of your life. You will never ever regret it. I know this from experience.

Dear LORD God Almighty, we worship and praise You. We thank You for yet another New Year 2023. Please call all of Your children, Your creation unto You LORD. You might not wait much longer before You return Jesus and we want everyone to be saved. Please wake up Your remnant of Christ followers and place a burning desire in our hearts to tell the whole world that Jesus Christ is LORD and He loves them, died a horrendous death to save them from their sins when they repent, and that He arose from death and Lives and Reigns for eternity!! KING of kings, LORD of lords, MAGISTRATE of magistrates, the One and Only Great POTENTATE.

LORD there is so much unrest and hatred in so many nations. We pray that You bring Your Peace and Pure Love. Please LORD help the people in Ukraine. Please save them and the Russians because if the Russians were saved they wouldn’t perpetrate this evil. Please save those in countries who are suffering due to standing up for righteousness and standing up for You LORD. Protect the ladies and protestors in Iran. Save people in other countries from genocide. Please Holy Spirit bring Your Comfort to all who are being persecuted and martyred for being Christ followers and their families. You are the God Who raises kings, (and presidents), up and brings them down. You are God Who protects nations or destroys them. LORD God please help America. Bring us back to You.

Please protect all of the First Responders and Military in America. Please bring America back to You LORD. One Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Join us together as a people in hope and unity and stop the hatred and bigotry. Help us to love our fellow humans in the same manner that You love God and to be filled with compassion for them and help anyone that we see is in need.

Please protect the children everywhere LORD God. Let them have joy filled lives and keep their innocence. Father help us to not move backward in our thinking, but instead to ever reach forward to the Ultimate goal which is You Jesus. You are our Portion, You are More than Enough LORD. Life with You Holy Spirit is Glorious! Please let Your people know. I thank You in advance. In Jesus Name. Amen. All Glory to You.

How did we get here America? How did our way of life change so drastically and so quickly and yet not so quickly. This change has also been so insidious. I have watched it happen. I have lived enough years now to have seen a lot of changes. I have not seen any so dramatic and drastic as in the last few years. I have attempted to do my part as a fellow human being at each turning point to stop evil and promote righteousness as God has wanted me to do. As God wants all of us to do.

If we all do our part, we will not have all of these severe problems. There will always be problems but they can be rectified in a decent and mannerly way. If we raise our children to love not hate, help not hurt, care not curse, be respectful, not reproachful, and to be their best, not bigots and not bully we will see a better world. Why in the world would we now want to have curriculum in our schools that teaches our children that those of certain ethnicities are victims and others are overly privileged and have caused them to be victims. Why would we want to go backwards against progress that has been fought for and sacrificed for by so many people?

The truth is that we should never have had slavery of any kind here in America or in any country. Many people groups throughout history have very sadly been enslaved. What about President Abraham Lincoln who abolished slavery and emancipated slaves? What about Pastor, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.? Was their lifetime of sacrifice to bring freedom and reconciliation of human beings of all people groups not enough? Most of all, what about Jesus Christ, God’s Only Begotten Son, Who was Himself God Incarnate. He died the most horrendous death for all of us to be reconciled to Himself. Then we can be reconciled to each other.

Do you want to go backwards? What about my ancestors and ancestors of others who were Abolitionists who sacrificed their very lives to free slaves? I do believe they were white people helping to free black people because of their love for those people and God’s love for all of His people with all of the beautiful skin tones that He created them to have.

Teach your own children and grandchildren to love all people groups. We are all part of the same Human Race. We all came from Adam and Eve, the first people God created. It would be pretty boring if we all looked the same. Differences are beautiful. Cultures are beautiful. People of all nations are beautiful. People are beautiful because we are ALL created in the Image of God. Imago Dei.

Teach Peace, Teach Love, Teach Respect, Teach Manners, Teach Hard Work, Teach Character, Teach Perseverance, Teach Self Control, Teach Kindness, Teach children to use their words properly to lift up and not tear down. Teach Christ. Do your part. Remember the old saying, “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.”

PROVERBS 18:21 DEATH AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF THE TONGUE, AND THOSE WHO LOVE IT WILL EAT IT’S FRUIT. nkjv

GALATIANS 5:22-23 BUT THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS, SELF-CONTROL; AGAINST SUCH THINGS THERE IS NO LAW.

There is one problem. That is US. Yes, all of us as humans and the problems we create. There is One Answer to every problem. This is God, Jesus Christ and belief in Him. Allowing His Holy Spirit to lead and guide us through our lives while we are here on this earth. God has been pursuing you. Think about it and you will remember times God has tried to get your attention and your affection.

We are only here for such a very short time compared to the eternity we will live after we leave this earth. Where will we then spend our eternity? The choice is ours. God gave us freedom to either choose to live with Him and for Him or choose to live our lives our own way and have nothing to do with God. With God we get to spend our eternity with Him in Heaven and have our Best life now with Him. If we choose to have nothing to do with God, WE CHOOSE to spend eternity in hell away from God as WE CHOSE. Please, I beseech you to choose correctly. Give your lives to the LORD. I want to see you in Heaven for eternity.

REVELATION 3:20 BEHOLD, I STAND AT THE DOOR, AND KNOCK. IF ANYONE HEARS MY VOICE, AND OPENS THE DOOR, I WILL COME IN TO HIM, AND WILL DINE WITH HIM AND HIM WITH ME. (said by Jesus) nkjv

1 JOHN 4:19 WE LOVE HIM, (JESUS), BECAUSE HE FIRST LOVED US. nkjv

JOHN 3:16-20 FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE. 17 FOR GOD DID NOT SEND HIS SON INTO THE WORLD TO CONDEMN THE WORLD, BUT THAT THE WORLD THROUH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED. 18 HE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED; BUT HE WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE IS CONDEMNED ALREADY, BECAUSE HE HAS NOT BELIEVED IN THE NAME OF THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD. (JESUS). 19 AND THIS IS THE CONDEMNATION, THAT THE LIGHT,(JESUS), HAS COME INTO THE WORLD, AND MEN LOVED DARKNESS RATHER THAN LIGHT BECAUSE THEIR DEEDS WERE EVIL. 20 FOR EVERYONE PRACTICING EVIL HATES THE LIGHT AND DOES NOT COME TO THE LIGHT, LEST HIS DEEDS SHOULD BE EXPOSED. nkjv

Until we get to talk again, please remember I love you and am praying for you. Most importantly Jesus loves you. God bless you and all of your generations.

Hello my most wonderful World Wide Family. I love you all so very much. It is so fabulous to be talking to you at the beginning of this New Year 2023 in which we will be sharing our journeys together. I was praying about what we could talk about since the New Year was arriving, and I thought about ‘Resting in the LORD’.

There are so many New Years Resolutions that you could make and that people do make and then don’t keep past the first week of the New Year. Of course I have been included in this group over the years. I thought about the Resolution that I want to make and keep is to Depend upon the LORD and trust in Him no matter what. I want to find Rest for my soul in the LORD.

As a human, I am limited in my abilities and I am completely OK with admitting this. This is not a popular statement or belief but I believe it is true. People want to believe that they just need to try harder, work harder, attend to higher education and academia, acquire more material wealth and belongings, increase in ‘positivity,’ tell themselves good things about themselves to build themselves up, and do whatever it takes to make themselves happy.

I think that I would rather take God’s WORD for what I should do. I find His instructions in the Bible. God did after all create me, every human being who ever lived, and all of creation. Let’s take a look at what God has to say.

MATTHEW 11:28-29 COME UNTO ME, (JESUS), ALL YE THAT LABOR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU, AND LEARN OF ME FOR I AM MEEK AND LOWLY IN HEART; AND YE SHALL FIND REST UNTO YOUR SOULS. nkjv

Dear LORD God Almighty, thank You for another year to live our lives for You. To bring You Glory, Honor and Precious souls. Thank You for Who You are and Whose we are. We love You, praise and worship You. Thank You for the freedom that we still have in America, the freedom that isn’t at all free. The freedom that has cost so many their lives and the lives of their loved ones. Those who gave the “Last Full Measure” as President Abraham Lincoln stated.

Thank You mostly for the Ultimate Sacrifice You made God our Father when You gave Your Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ to die for us for the remittance of our sins so we can be saved when we repent, accept You as LORD and Savior and live our lives with You and for You. Thank You Jesus for dying for us and giving us Your Holy Spirit to do this life with. Thank You for Your WORD the Bible. Your instruction manual for us.

Please lead us and guide us through this year and every day and year of our lives Holy Spirit. Help us not to strive so much in our own ability but to depend upon You, to rest in Your Strength and follow Your Way, Your Will and read Your WORD. Thank You that You protect us and all of our generations with Your angels and hedge of protection. Thank You for Your Pure Love, Your Peace, and Your Joy that is our strength.

Please draw all of Your people to You to be saved before You come back again Jesus. Remove blinders and biases that people have, bring them back to You. Please bring Repentance, Revival, Regeneration and Renewal to America. Please protect all of Your people in all nations and their families who are being persecuted and martyred for believing in You Jesus. Help us all to truly love and care for our fellow human beings.

Please LORD work a miracle and stop the war that Russia has perpetrated upon Ukraine. Save those in Ukraine and give them power so they can be warm and have the necessities of life and live in peace like they were before this atrocity began. Please save those in Russia so there will be an end to this evil. Please stop genocide in all nations. Please bless and protect the children in every country and continent and let them keep their joy, laughter, and innocence. We thank You in advance LORD. In Jesus’ precious Name. Amen.

PSALM 37:7 BE STILL BEFORE THE LORD AND WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM, DO NOT WORRY WHEN PEOPLE SUCCEED IN THEIR WAYS, WHEN THEY CARRY OUT THEIR WICKED SCHEMES.

JOHN 16:33 “I HAVE TOLD YOU THESE THINGS, SO THAT IN ME YOU MAY HAVE PEACE. IN THIS WORLD YOU WILL HAVE TROUBLE. BUT TAKE HEART! I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD.”

God tells me to rest in Him. He tells me that when I am weak then He is strong. This means that life can get overwhelming and we can feel defeated and weak and like we can’t handle certain situations. We were never meant to handle them alone. God is not only our Creator, He is also our Heavenly Father, Abba. Let Him be Strong in our lives. Give your problems to Him. Give your families and loved ones to Him. Your finances, relationships, emotions, worries, fears, jobs, businesses, cities, states and countries, and people who want to be your enemies. Give them all to God. We can’t handle always handle all that life throws our way as humans. We weren’t created to carry these burdens.

1PETER 5:7 CAST YOUR CARES UPON HIM, (JESUS), FOR HE CARES FOR YOU. nkjv

2 CORINTHIANS 12:9-11 BUT HE, (JESUS), SAID TO ME, “MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR YOU, FOR MY POWER IS MADE PERFECT IN WEAKNESS.” THEREFORE I WILL BOAST ALL THE MORE GLADLY ABOUT MY WEAKNESSES, SO THAT CHRIST‘S POWER MAY REST ON ME. THAT IS WHY, FOR CHRIST’S SAKE, I DELIGHT IN WEAKNESSES, IN INSULTS, IN HARDSHIPS, IN PERSECUTIONS, IN DIFFICULTIES. FOR WHEN I AM WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG.

We were created to have a personal, intimate relationship with God and like a human father, (but of course so much more that we cannot even comprehend), God will protect us. He will provide for us. He teaches us all that we need to know. He knows everything about us, more than we even know about ourselves. He alone is Omnipotent=All Powerful, Omnipresent=everywhere all of the time, Omniscient=All Knowing. He is the Author and Finisher of our lives.

That is Who I want to put my Trust in. That is Who I want to rest in. He is my Provider, Jehovah Jireh. If I am sick, He is my Healer, the Great Physician, Jehovah Rapha. He is the Banner over me and all of my generations, Jehovah Nissi. Living my life in for God and in God is the Only New Years Resolution that I can really keep because it is not about me, it is all always about Him. He is my only place of strength and safety. He is my Refuge, Strong Tower, and Sanctuary

Until we get to talk again, please know that I love you so very much and I am always praying for you and all of your generations. Most importantly, Jesus loves you. God bless you.
