Like spring flowers, they soon wither. (Be patient because he will be taking these people down. God has had it with their evil.) 3 Trust in the Lord and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper. 4 Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. (No matter what, keep the faith. He will protect us if we are living for him) 5 Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you. 6 He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn, and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun. (Now this is how I want people to see me. But godly action is required for us to reap this promise ) 7 Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes. (I am like the disciple John, "Jesus can we call fire down on them now." This is a promise that our God has it under control. That means I will have to wait on my Kings timing.) 8 Stop being angry! Turn from your rage! Do not lose your temper— it only leads to harm. 9 For the wicked will be destroyed, but those who trust in the Lord will possess the land. (This one only separates us from our King. Release that desire to control things and let our King handle it.) 10 Soon the wicked will disappear. Though you look for them, they will be gone. 11 The lowly will possess the land and will live in peace and prosperity. (I really am beginning to see this. I feel many of the evil are now at Gitmo. Many have dropped out of public viewing.) 12 The wicked plot against the godly; they snarl at them in defiance. 13 But the Lord just laughs, for he sees their day of judgment coming. (I definitely seen this happen to President Trump and Mike Lindell. God will get the last laugh.) 14 The wicked draw their swords and string their bows to kill the poor and the oppressed, to slaughter those who do right. 15 But their swords will stab their own hearts, and their bows will be broken. (I have seen this happen to parents standing up for their kids at school board meetings. If the truth is placed on social media, you are receiving the same fate. The current social medias days are numbered because they all hate God.) 16 It is better to be godly and have little than to be evil and rich. 17 For the strength of the wicked will be shattered, but the Lord takes care of the godly. (If we remain godly, this is a promise.) 18 Day by day the Lord takes care of the innocent, and they will receive an inheritance that lasts forever. 19 They will not be disgraced in hard times; even in famine they will have more than enough. (This is also a promise and I have seen it happen personally in my own life.) 20 But the wicked will die. The Lord’s enemies are like flowers in a field— they will disappear like smoke. (I have heard from God's prophets that this will happen if the ungodly continue to fight against our King. Our God always wins.) 21 The wicked borrow and never repay, but the godly are generous givers. 22 Those the Lord blesses will possess the land, but those he curses will die. (I have also heard from God's prophets that largest transference of wealth from the wicked is about to happen. Many of the wicked will die if they oppose him. Again Our God always wins.) 23 The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. 24 Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand. (Thank you Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit for this one.) 25 Once I was young, and now I am old. Yet I have never seen the godly abandoned or their children begging for bread. 26 The godly always give generous loans to others, and their children are a blessing. (This sounds like living in America living under the true God. As long as we serve God we will continue to see more of this. This requires the church to stand against evil or this will become a figment of our imagination.) 27 Turn from evil and do good, and you will live in the land forever. 28 For the Lord loves justice, and he will never abandon the godly. (OK church, it is time to fight and to be that bright light exposing evil.) He will keep them safe forever, but the children of the wicked will die. 29 The godly will possess the land and will live there forever. (Notice how many time "the wicked will die" has been mentioned. God is serious.) 30 The godly offer good counsel; they teach right from wrong. 31 They have made God’s law their own, so they will never slip from his path. (This means we are a true representative of Jesus Christ.) 32 The wicked wait in ambush for the godly, looking for an excuse to kill them. 33 But the Lord will not let the wicked succeed or let the godly be condemned when they are put on trial. (This may not look like this is happening today but God is about to change the rules on the ungodly. Yes Lord, bring it on.) 34 Put your hope in the Lord. Travel steadily along his path. He will honor you by giving you the land. You will see the wicked destroyed. (This puts your faith to the test and is a promise) 35 I have seen wicked and ruthless people flourishing like a tree in its native soil. 36 But when I looked again, they were gone! Though I searched for them, I could not find them! (You will probably find them at Gitmo) 37 Look at those who are honest and good, for a wonderful future awaits those who love peace. 38 But the rebellious will be destroyed; they have no future. 39 The Lord rescues the godly; he is their fortress in times of trouble. 40 The Lord helps them, rescuing them from the wicked. He saves them, and they find shelter in him. (Between the blood of Jesus Christ and the power of God we are invincible. As long as we fit in with God's plans he has need of us. Always have a thankful heart when ever we serve him and give him the glory that is his when he gives us another day to serve him. ) 10/20/2022 I was reading Psalms 25 and it began to make me think of our President Donald Trump. God told the prophet Kim Clement that a man from New York would be the next president of the United States several years before Donald made the announcement to run. God blurred his face so he could not recognize who it was. Donald Trump was asked to run for the presidency strictly because of the corruption going on in our government. He decided to take on the challenge. Anyway, he was called by God to do it in the first place. I am not sure if he knew it. It is amazing all the things that he got accomplished in those four years. Not only did he create the best economy ever, but he was also taking down worldwide pedophilia. He also is destroying the wealth of those who have been stealing from the American people. He now has set the record for the most attempts on his life. He is still has not stopped doing anything. That is why he is so hated by our corrupt government. Chapter 25 says: Psalm 25:14-15 (New Living Translation) The Lord is a friend to those who fear him. He teaches them his covenant. My eyes are always on the Lord, for he rescues me from the traps of my enemies. The Holy Spirit has been working overtime to keep President Trump safe from his enemies. But all the things the corrupt people are doing is beginning the drag down on the innocent. God has something to say about this: Psalm 27:14 (New Living Translation) Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord. I believe if we keep our faith in what God is doing and stand with him against this evil, he will give this promise: Psalm 37:4 (New Living Translation) Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Just think about this, if the church was not so divided and would stand united behind Jesus Christ this would be over with by now. We need to read God's word to learn how to be the church Jesus wants. If we remain lukewarm, Jesus may have to start purging people from his church. This will not be cool at all. Let's make Jesus proud by standing up for godly values and serving the needy. Oh, continue to pray for God's tool President Trump. He and his entire family need it. I would not be surprised that there are many of you out there who are being attacked for doing what is right. These verses are for you too. I pray that Jesus Christ will give you Victory in your circumstances. 10/14/2022 Even though we are to representatives of Jesus Christ there are some things that God has to take care of. I get tired of seeing all the corruption going on and I want God to start cleaning house now. I say, "God you should go in now and start doing it now." I am like the disciples of Jesus who were ready to call fire down from heaven when the Samaritans opposed them. Luke 9:51-56 Opposition from Samaritans 51 As the time drew near for him to ascend to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem. 52 He sent messengers ahead to a Samaritan village to prepare for his arrival. 53 But the people of the village did not welcome Jesus because he was on his way to Jerusalem. 54 When James and John saw this, they said to Jesus, “Lord, should we call down fire from heaven to burn them up?” 55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them.56 So they went on to another village. Jesus rebuked me also: God showed me my fallacies of my action. One: Our God is a God of love. He did not send Jesus here to send people to hell. He said, "I want to give people time to repent and come to me. I also want to use this time to wake up my church." Two: He wants to expose every dark secret to visibly show his people whats been going on in the darkness. This all takes time. Three: America's constitution was inspired by God. He will not do anything to circumvent his law. Our constitution does say treason and crimes against humanity will result in the destruction of many. But this is not my decision to make. So this is what I am going to do: Psalm 62 1 I wait quietly before God, for my victory comes from him. 2 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will never be shaken. God has this all under control.. All I know is whatever he is going to do, it will be big. This is because we serve a big God. 10/11/2022 When my buddy witnesses to the gangs he is dealing with broken hearts and men with little hope. He usually brings up: Jeremiah 29:11: (New Living Translation) 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. God's desire is to bless us and bring prosperity to everyone willing to go after it. We just need to remember why we were created. We all were placed on this earth to worship our King and serve him. A nation that does this is immensely blessed. Israel proved this in the old Testament and America has seen the result of this. But as Isreal also demonstrated their self destruction in the Old testament, America was in this same situation. We will never know how close we came to being decimated by our enemies. The restoration will be because covenant of the pilgrims with God and people praying: 2 Chronicles 7:14 (New Living Translation) 14 Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. Now that God is going to soon restore America, we can make plans to enjoy this new freedom. Those of you going to college are your plans to just make money? Money is cool except when God is left out of the equation. That money can become a curse. If you are working already you may already be climbing that ladder of success. But where is God in this conquest? Have you been demonstrating a godly life talking about Jesus? Be careful about advancing your career. Proverbs has something to say: Proverbs 19:20-21 (New Living Translation) Get all the advice and instruction you can, so you will be wise the rest of your life. You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail. It is always good to pray about any plans you come up with to make sure that you will not regret your decision. The Holy Spirit can give you peace in making a decision. If you do not experience peace it may because the plan is not good. God wants people in the work force. The people you come into contact with may only have you to hear about Jesus Christ. This is one of the reasons why we are here is to bring the Gospel to everyone. Plans that have God behind them and in them will be successful because our King is being Glorified. God has given all of us talents to dream big things. Just make sure your dreams include God at the center of it. 10/10/2022 Why is it when we begin a terrible trial of some kind, that is when we begin to search for God. God seems to have just left the scene with us holding the bag. David had one of those moments: Psalm 63:1 (New Living Translation) A psalm of David, regarding a time when David was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water. God never leaves us. It is us who leave him. He is like the dad in the prodigal son watching for our return: Luke 15:20-24 (New Living Translation) 20 So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. 21 His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. 22 But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. 23 And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, 24 for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began. No other so called god does this for us. Isaiah has more to say about this: Isaiah 43:11-12 (New Living Translation) I, yes, I am the Lord, and there is no other Savior. First, I predicted your rescue, then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world. No foreign god has ever done this. You are witnesses that I am the only God,” says the Lord. Now this is the next question: Why do we seem to only search for God only when we have exhausted everything else. Here is the 24-7 answer to solve this question: Deuteronomy 13:4 (New Living Translation) Serve only the Lord your God and fear him alone. Obey his commands, listen to his voice, and cling to him. This verse means all the time. If you are not going through anything major, you should be giving thanks: Colossians 3:17 (New Living Translation) And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father. Our God wants to be our guide throughout the ups and downs of our lives. All we need to do is let him while we try to live that godly life to honor him. If we keep our focus on God's Kingdom, we will be asking God for wisdom to handle whatever life, or the enemy brings against us. After winning against our own trials, we can be an encouragement to other believers who may going through similar trials. There is something to be said about being encouraged by another believer. 10/06/2022 Proverbs 27:1 (New Living Translation) Don’t brag about tomorrow, since you don’t know what the day will bring. When my buddy witnesses to each gang, he would always mention the fact, "No one is promised tomorrow, not even me. This may be the only opportunity to give your heart to Jesus Christ." Tomorrow is a gift from God. It is even more exciting if we are serving Jesus. Don't take tomorrow for granted. But we all know that many times tomorrow brings unexpected circumstances. Things can break down, an investment can go sour, or even people can change the outcome of tomorrow. Whatever happens, tomorrow could be the start of a new trial. This is why many of the mature Christians start the new day out with prayer. It can bind the enemy from coming against us. It can bring wisdom to catch and solve problems. The coolest thing that could happen is when the people you are working with fit in with your plans. Always make sure God is part of any plan you come up with tomorrow and be willing to change them if he says so. He may be protecting you from pending disaster. As we all should, start out the new day with thanksgiving. This pleases God and he will be more likely to answer your prayers. Have a blessed tomorrow. 10/04/2022 My college and career pastor told me when he dated his wife, Vickie, that they would only come together when they were visible to the public in the light. He said, "The temptation of dating a beautiful woman and doing improper things outside of a marriage, is something I do not want to test. I know that it is imperative to protect both of us from doing something not pleasing to our King. I know that I will not be able to do anything inappropriate while people are watching." So many times people do the opposite. They use the cover of darkness to commit sin. They say to themselves, "Nobody will ever find out." Philippians 2:15 So that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people. Paul writes that we are being observed and will be discovered in our sins. We need to continue to live free of sin to set the example: 1 Thessalonians 5:5 For you are all children of the light and of the day; we don’t belong to darkness and night. 1 Thessalonians 5:8 But let us who live in the light be clearheaded, protected by the armor of faith and love, and wearing as our helmet the confidence of our salvation. John also talks about living in the light: John 3:20-21 (New Living Translation) All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed. But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants.” Paul writes that if our light is not real, we will be discovered: 1 Corinthians 4:5 So don’t make judgments about anyone ahead of time—before the Lord returns. For he will bring our darkest secrets to light and will reveal our private motives. Then God will give to each one whatever praise is due. You may not realize how important it is to be a light to the world because it convicts it. Once our light goes out the world becomes completely dark. Sin will become rampant because it will not have a check against it. This is the reason why we need to be bold and come against those things in our own life and in politics that are not pleasing to God. Your light does matter so let it shine brightly and combine forces with those who also are shining the light. We can become that church Jesus Christ is looking for before he can come back. 10/03/2022 After witnessing to the gangs in a Commerce City park, my buddy began witnessing on the street on Saturday night. Soon people started lining up to be prayed for. It is amazing how many people are out on the street after dark. The streets many times are even busy at 2:00 a.m. Later that evening, nine priest came up to him and talked him about him praying over the people. Earlier, they just came from a meeting and they were cruising the town and they noticed that there was about a dozen people waiting in line to be prayed for by my buddy. My buddy always places his hand on the person he is praying for. Lately, God has been bringing a lot of people to him. The people out on the street are becoming hungry for God. Those priests just sat there in their van and watched him for at least 15 minutes before they walked over to talk to him. After the priest conversed with him, my buddy asked the priests if they ever accepted Jesus Christ. It seems like an odd question to be asking a priest but they paused for a moment. They had to admit that none of them had. He began to explain to them about having that personal relationship with Jesus Christ. This brought me back to the story in John where Jesus was talking with Nicodemus. John 3 New Living Translation 1 There was a man named Nicodemus, a Jewish religious leader who was a Pharisee. 2 After dark one evening, he came to speak with Jesus. “Rabbi,” he said, “we all know that God has sent you to teach us. Your miraculous signs are evidence that God is with you.” 3 Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, unless you are born again, you cannot see the Kingdom of God.” 4 “What do you mean?” exclaimed Nicodemus. “How can an old man go back into his mother’s womb and be born again?” 5 Jesus replied, “I assure you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit. 6 Humans can reproduce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth to spiritual life. 7 So don’t be surprised when I say, ‘You must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it wants. Just as you can hear the wind but can’t tell where it comes from or where it is going, so you can’t explain how people are born of the Spirit.” 9 “How are these things possible?” Nicodemus asked. 10 Jesus replied, “You are a respected Jewish teacher, and yet you don’t understand these things? 11 I assure you, we tell you what we know and have seen, and yet you won’t believe our testimony. 12 But if you don’t believe me when I tell you about earthly things, how can you possibly believe if I tell you about heavenly things? 13 No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven. 14 And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life. These priest are like Nicodemus because they know things of God but have separated themselves from God. Until we give our hearts to Jesus we will never see the Kingdom of God. After we give our hearts to Jesus, he will send his Spirit in return. The Holy Spirit can make us bold for God's Kingdom. The gifts from his Spirit he gives us will edify the body of his church. Jesus is much more than something that exists. He wants to live in us as we live for him. My buddy has many stories on this kind of living and I am trying to write a lot of it down. If God wanted me to, I could write multiple books on living for God in just what happens in our Ministry. If you want excitement in your life, Live for God! Those priests began to cry as they began living for Jesus. They asked my buddy to meet them the next day. They wanted to ask him questions about what they need to do to better serve God. I cannot wait to see what is going to happen to their congregations when they become on fire for Jesus Christ. The same is true for you. Could you imagine how that same personal relationship with Jesus Christ would impact the people you come into contact with. It is our time to change the world for Jesus Christ. Isaiah 33:22 New Living Translation 22 For the Lord is our judge, our lawgiver, and our king. He will care for us and save us. 09/28/2022 We have all heard of the power our of God's word. But I am beginning to realize that even the physical form of The Bible bound in a book when you carry that it too has power to draw people. When my buddy goes out on the street many times God has him stand in a certain place with his bible physically so people can see it. Pretty soon he has A-line of people coming up to him and asking him for prayer. The latest thing that happened was a school bus pulled up on the street on Saturday night. They were some young teenage basketball players who took 3rd in a tournament and wanted to finish their trip touring Denver. They came from a rural area and the tall buildings are not seen where they live. The coach is always praying for his boys, but he wanted somebody that they don't know prayed for them. When he saw that Bible in my buddy’s hand, he immediately had the bus driver stop. He then proceeded to ask my buddy if he would pray for his boys on the bus. He walked by that bus driver with the Bible is his hand. The bus driver has never accepted Christ. The boys on that bus asked questions about the ministry for an hour and a half while they were being prayed over. This was enough to convince the bus driver that he needed Jesus Christ that night. Isaiah has something to say about this: Isaiah 55:11 It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it The Bible itself is nothing but paper and materials that rot but it is like the American flag because it represents the true God. But the words inside bring God’s presence. If you do not believe me, I can prove that the paper has the presence of God. In Chicago this summer my buddy witnessed to a Street 18 gang. The undercover police said they shoot at everyone who drives by them. God had him place his bible on the passenger side of the car. He had him open it to Isaiah 41:10: Isaiah 41:10 New Living Translation 10 Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand. He laid the bible face down on the passenger side windshield. When he was about to arrive, they had their pistols ready to shoot at him until the leader saw the open Bible. He signaled to his men to drop their weapons. He said, “We do not shoot at ministers.” He was with them most of the day and never got hurt. At the end of the day, they were ready to give their hearts to Jesus Christ. Meanwhile the undercover police were taking bets on how many bullet holes would be in the car they provided him when he returned. The undercover’s pastor knew the power of God’s word and said “zero”. The rest had more than 1 hole. The women were also taking bets on how many bruises he would have when he returned. Again, the pastor's wife knew the power of God’s word and said “zero”. Between them they made $1000 dollars. We have a ghetto ministry where we bless God’s families in need with money. When they found out what we were doing they did the same with that money. The rest of the undercover police wanted to do the same because they were beginning to see what fun it is to give. They are feeding those in their ghetto every weekend. This is all happening from God’s word. Just last week he met with a gang from San Diego who shot at everything that came near them. He did exactly what he did in Chicago. This time the leader’s bodyguard said, “We do not shoot at preachers.”. This gang too is giving their hearts to Jesus Christ. I do like my digital Bible to find things quickly, but you need to carry a physical Bible if you are called to witness to people on the street. God may tell you to stand in a certain location and not say a word. Soon people will see your Bible and start lining up for prayer. God is present when you hold onto his word. 09/25/2022 My buddy after he witnesses to the gangs, he will go out on the streets of Denver for the people who wandering around all hours of the night. Many are looking for answers and he tells them about the salvation of Jesus Christ. Lately, though people who call themselves Christians are coming up to him and are mentioning the emptiness they are feeling. If we don't totally commit ourselves to our King we are putting ourselves in danger of this happening to us. They are rededicating their lives to Jesus Christ for that fresh anointing. By that grace of Jesus Christ, it is now possible for us to enter into the kingdom of God because of what he did on that cross. It is now our time to show our appreciation to Christ by living a godly life. One of the cool things that happens when you live that kind of life, the number of sins you commit will greatly drop because of your desire to please him. I pray that this is true in your life already. It is true though that we will probably never completely stop sinning. John talks about this: 1 John 2:1 (New Living Translation) My dear children, I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the one who is truly righteous. When you do not sin you never have to face the consequences of what that sin would entail. This makes life pretty darn good. But now we are representing Jesus Christ. Satan is extremely upset whenever we try to please God. He is going to bring every circumstance that is around you to try to take you down. Many times, these things will create hardships in your life. Many modern-day churches hide behind their doors to prevent conflict. The problem with this is that you become lukewarm to God. This is what God says about that: Revelation 3:16 But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth! If you are not seeing any spiritual warfare in your life, you may also be lukewarm. This is not a very good place to be in. GET BOTH FEET INTO GOD'S KINGDOM AND LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND. Paul talks more about spiritual warfare to the church in Ephesus: Ephesians 6:12 For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. Notice the word "fighting" in this verse. It is not a "debate" like the lukewarm want to do. I have watched the mature Christians as they will continuously pray to bind Satan up in their lives to minimize the damage that the enemy has on their life. Even then things can still go against us. Things like sickness, loved ones dying, losing a pet or expensive breakdowns can cause a lot of grief in our lives. God can prevent all this stuff from happening, but he chooses not to. He has a good reason why he lets us go through trials: Romans 5:3-4 (New Living Translation) We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. These things let us know if we are willing to stand with our King when things get rocky. I want to be conditioned to be "hot" so that if I would ever be persecuted that I would still endorse my King no matter what may happen to me. Lukewarm makes it too easy to substitute the pleasures of this world for my King. Did you ever think about the value of his gift he gave us and telling him to stick it because I would rather have what the world offers. He loves us just the same, but he will not acknowledge us before our Father where our salvation lies. So, if you are living a godly life and enduring the trials that come after you, you are not alone. If you handle your trials in a godly manner, you are pleasing the King. Rejoice that you are winning against your trials. 09/24/2022 The only thing that is keeping Jesus Christ from coming back the 2nd time time is that the whole world has not heard of his glorious name and the churches of today are totally divided. He is looking for the church that unites behind him and starts thinking exactly like he thinks. This church will push God's agenda instead of man's. This church will also be bold. This church will also come against the evil in our government and stand up for up for his beliefs. Some of this may be as simple as when we go to the voting booth. Are we going to pull the same lever that Jesus Christ would. If we do not, we are dividing his kingdom. 2020 is the year where we had two opposite agendas or platforms. One was godly and one was demonic. Some churches failed miserably at determining which was the right one. If you are not sure which one was demonic, it was the one that was supporting abortion, pedophilia, homosexual marriage, transgenderism and all the other weird stuff that dishonors God. Did you ever wonder what it would be like if Jesus Christ would come to America as man today. I know he would be like the man he was when he first came to Earth. His primary goal would you be to please the Father. I know he would get 12 more men to help him reach the world.. He would definitely have a lot more fun with all the technology that we have to reach men.. He would be out on social media proclaiming the gospel and would probably be censored because he spoke the truth. When it comes to churches he would be just like he was with the pharisees. Man, he would be telling many of them that what they are doing is wrong. He would tell them what they need to do to become the church that he wants. This is what he would say: 1 Peter 3:8 (New Living Translation) Finally, all of you should be of one mind. Sympathize with each other. Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted, and keep a humble attitude. He would then say: Philippians 2:1-2 (New Living Translation) Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate? Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose. Now this is the way should be Living. The church then models this to the world. Get ready because the rest of the world would here about Jesus because of our newly found boldness. Now watch Jesus return. Just remember the condition of today's church is the only thing holding his return back. 09/22/2022 If you desire to bring more Glory to our amazing God, do this: Romans 15:7 (New Living Translation) Therefore, accept each other just as Christ has accepted you so that God will be given glory. This is something that the Holy Spirit makes possible. Our flesh will not want this to happen because it feels like it has been damaged by the results of the actions of people around it. 09/20/2022 At first I was going to blow the verse off, then I began wondering if it is prophecy over me. I am sure it is for you. Joel 2:23 (New Living Translation) Rejoice, you people of Jerusalem! Rejoice in the Lord your God! For the rain he sends demonstrates his faithfulness. Once more the autumn rains will come, as well as the rains of spring. The first thing that came to my mind was all of the things having to do with the scamdemic, the inflation, the border, abortion and government corruption that has never seen this magnitude before. I believe that God is trying to say that he has this all under control. There is a large spiritual battle going on for the survival of America and the world. The rain signifies the great things God is going to do for those who love him. The show that our God is about to do is never going to be matched again to give our nation another chance. Let us all give thanks for what he is about to do. Our generation is blessed because we were created to be part of what he is about to do. I am sure many books will be written about what God did? 09/13/2022 Most people have no desire to grow old because your physical abilities diminish over time. Serving God during your younger years can minimize the effects of old age. You learn a lot of things serving him that bring peace to your life. We all know that stress makes you old quickly. Honoring your parents and authority have God's promise of a long life. Solomon said: Proverbs 20:29 The glory of the young is their strength; the gray hair of experience is the splendor of the old. Do not believe that your age makes your expire like the world thinks we should. We never get too old for God. He is there for us for the long haul. Isaiah confirms this: Isaiah 46:4 (New Living Translation) I will be your God throughout your lifetime— until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you. God will be there to take care of us. He does not want us to retire to live for ourselves but to go out and touch hearts and pray over those younger then we are. Titus also mentions our great value to our King: Titus 2:2 (New Living Translation) Teach the older men to exercise self-control, to be worthy of respect, and to live wisely. They must have sound faith and be filled with love and patience. We have a lot to teach the younger generation. They are watching and we need to demonstrate to them how to live. If you still think you need to be put out to pasture, read what John said: 1 John 13 13 I am writing to you who are mature in the faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning. I am writing to you who are young in the faith because you have won your battle with the evil one. 14 I have written to you who are God's children because you know the Father. I have written to you who are mature in the faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning. I have written to you who are young in the faith because you are strong. God's word lives in your hearts, and you have won your battle with the evil one. If you have been long time in serving Christ this part, "I have written to you who are mature in the faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning." is for you. Get involved with Christ's body and put your experience to work. You are needed more than you think. I am getting up there in years myself and my King has confirmed that he much more work for me to do. My age has not deterd my King at all from using me. You are not any different than I am. 09/08/2022 When I was a kid whenever I saw somebody that had something cool I would always say to myself that I am going to work hard to get what they have. I was never so jealous to the point where I had to have it right away. Sometimes years passed by before I got what I wanted. But today it is a different story. There is a lot of jealousy and envy going on. Great iniquities are occuring to get what we want. Americans have lost their honor for God and their fellow man. Honor is important to God. It is mentioned nearly 400 times in his word depending on the version. Honor has two definitions defined as: 1. high respect; great esteem. 2. adherence to what is right or to a conventional standard of conduct. Look at some of the synonyms: Glory - Giving Glory to our King greatly honors him. Importance - How much time I give my King is demonstrated by the godly life I live. This greatly honors our King. Respect - How much we fear our King greatly honors him. This one should also apply to any non demonic authority. Integrity - If your word is as binding as a written contract not only honors God but honors those working with you. They will know that you will keep your word. Honesty - This greatly honors God and people will be confident that they will not get ripped off if you are in the room with them. Ethics - This greatly honors God. These also prevent a lot of sins from materializing. Morals - This honors God because you are doing things by his standards. Goodness - This will not get you into heaven on its own merit but it greatly pleases our King. Decency - The lack of this one causes major distractions and dishonors our King. Remember we are not to bring attention to ourselves but to keep focus on our King. Justice - Whenever justice is demonstrated it greatly honors our King. After all God has been bringing justice to us for a long time. Reliability - This one is about dead today. God is greatly honored by those who demonstrate this. Those around you will want to work with you. Dependability - This one is about dead too. People will love you for this because they can trust you to get things done. It also honors God. Faithfulness - This is God's favorite and it really pleases him: Hebrews 11:6 6 And without faith it is impossible to Please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. Paul talks about honor: 1 Thessalonians 4:4 Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor, 5 not in lustful passion like the pagans who do not know God and his ways. 6 Never harm or cheat a Christian brother in this matter by violating his wife, for the Lord avenges all such sins, as we have solemnly warned you before. 7 God has called us to live holy lives, not impure lives. 8 Therefore, anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human teaching but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you. If honor means anything to us we need to let a godly life rule us. This also means taking a stance against evil in our government and in God's church. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. We live to stand for our King. Next is: Matthew 28:18-20 (New Living Translation) Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Now we will be honoring our King by our Godly actions and Godly living. 09/04/2022 The toughest thing Billy Graham had to deal with is disciplining those people who came forward. As many as 80% went back to their old ways. In order to keep these people on track one needs to at least support those who receive the message of Jesus Christ. Paul did this with Timothy: 2 Timothy 1:13-14 (Good News Translation) Hold firmly to the true words that I taught you, as the example for you to follow, and remain in the faith and love that are ours in union with Christ Jesus. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, who lives in us, keep the good things that have been entrusted to you. We all need some encouragement from time to time. Living a Godly life is imperative in showing people how they should live for Christ. We are to be living examples proving to people it can be done. Paul has us do the next step: 2 Corinthians 7:1 (New Living Translation) Because we have these promises, dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that can defile our body or spirit. And let us work toward complete holiness because we fear God. Even striving to be the light to people around us we may still fall into sin. John has the answer to that: 1 John 1:7 (New Living Translation) But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin. But whatever we do follow the "what would Jesus do" philosophy. Jesus commands us to bring his word to those around us. James has something to say about this for those who don't. . James 1:22 (New Living Translation) But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. Sometimes circumstances make it so we cannot say much about Christ but we are always free to live the Godly life. You keep it up and they will eventually want what you have. 09/02/2022 The number one thing my buddy sees when he Witnesses to gangs is their broken hearts. There is not very much hope in their lives. It is also interesting that none of them never ask what is Jesus or what is God. They have already heard of both. A lot of them will tell my buddy that they do not want to hear about Jesus. We all know that Jesus Christ convicts the heart. The reason why they and other so called Christians have not come to God is probably because of this: 1 John 2:4-6 4 If someone claims, "I know God," but doesn't obey God's commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. 5 But those who obey God's word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. 6 Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did. Because the gangs have never truly understood who God or Jesus Christ are, they always ask my buddy about the number of sins they've committed. They firmly believe that Jesus Christ would not accept them the way they are. We are thankful that Jesus doesn't have a point system on sins. He is only interested in us asking forgiveness of those sins and to have a complete heart transformation to him. When the gangs realize this they want to come to Jesus Christ. They always tell my buddy that before we go home we want to make sure that we have our hearts right with God. This Is the Life they want to start living: 1 John 2:15-17 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. Now you are truly a Christian if you follow this. Just remember that even following this that God still can bless you abundantly. Just remember Malachi 3:10 where God asks you to test him with your finances. He always keeps his promise. To really get a Blessing keep your heart focused on Kingdom activities. Those gangs that give their hearts to Jesus want to be able to live for God in this manner. 09/01/2022 When my buddy brings the word of God to the gangs, he could care less what race they might be. He will stay with each gang as long as it takes to give their hearts to God's Kingdom. He wants ALL OF THEM to enter the Kingdom of God. Did you know that God only looks at our hearts? Skin color or culture doesn't ever take place of the heart. Our government lately is just the opposite. A good heart is evil and it needs to be censored. Skin color is everything. "Black Lives Matter" should be "All Lives Matter" Even Paul agrees with me: Galatians 3:28 (Good News Translation) So there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles, between slaves and free people, between men and women; you are all one in union with Christ Jesus. If man would follow this verse all of the division going on today would stop. God's blessings also follow this verse. Depending on how you worship our King and how you tithe will determine the amount of blessings you receive. Your skill color does not matter to him. Do not expect God to have sympathy for what another race did to your ancestors. All races have been persecuted at one time or another. Jesus died for all races to give everyone the opportunity to get into the Kingdom of God. He expects us to forgive others as he forgives us. Skin color is not optional in the forgiveness game. Mark confirms this: Mark 11:25 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, Forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may Forgive you your sins." So forget about the race card and concentrate on the persons heart. This is the only thing that is important. Paul confirms this: Ephesians 2:19 (Good News Translation) So then, you Gentiles are not foreigners or strangers any longer; you are now citizens together with God's people and members of the family of God. Don't miss out on God's blessings just because you have a different set of rules for each race as our government wants to push. Jesus died for all races and his love is exactly the same for each race. If we do not see all races as Jesus does, we are dishonoring him immensely. 08/26/2022 Have you ever thought about how God made us. We all have talents. Each talent he gives us is designed to be used to worship him. Those talents can also edify the body as Paul says: Romans 12:4-5 (Good News Translation) We have many parts in the one body, and all these parts have different functions. In the same way, though we are many, we are one body in union with Christ, and we are all joined to each other as different parts of one body. The enemy plans out ways to get us envious of other peoples talents. I love our worship teams but the enemy will tell you that your talents are miniscule. He than will tell you how cool you would look on that stage. This is the reason God strives to get us to have Kingdom hearts so we see our talents the way he does. There are many people who serve God behind the scenes and they are storing more treasure in the Kingdom of God than those getting earthly recognition. Your talent is needed to complete Christs church. The next thing we have to realize that God calls us to do certain tasks. If you are not called by God to do it you may get hurt. On Tuesday I went to a meeting that was interesting but I was in there for three hours and I was too stiff to drive home. It was nearly 9pm but the evening was beautiful. I decided to take a walk and headed east. As I passed the Chase building I noticed the homeless there. One guy was laying on the cement like he was already asleep. I said to myself that my buddy would go a get these guys some pizzas but I was not sure of myself that this was wise so I continued walking. The minute this thought crossed my mind God woke my buddy up and said, "Get 4 pizzas and take some pillows, blankets and the clothing bag you have. Head over to the Chase building in Greeley." My buddy questioned God about which one. God just said just get going you are wasting time. He was really confused when God said I was involved. I later found out the guy on the ground had a knife and God warned my buddy about it. The other homeless there saw the pizzas he was carrying and mumbled to that guy laying down not to do anything stupid because we get to eat. When my buddy aproached that man he commanded, "Be still in the name of Jesus Christ." That man was physically paralyzed with fear and immediately promised not to stab anyone again as he handed over the knife over to him. They all had good manners as they ate. They then asked if he had any extra clothing. That is when he brought out the extra pillows, blankets and clothing. The guys in the park noticed what was going on and they also came over to eat. God always make sure he has enough. My buddy never wastes an opportunity to talk about Jesus Christ to anyone. Some of them gave there lives to Jesus Christ that very night. You see, I may have been stabed if I would have gone over there. Even taking that walk was dangerous but since I was barefooted, they thought I was homeless. They continued to watch but did not come after me. I have been called to financially support God's ministries and to write to help strengthen our walk with God. Yes, I would like to experience what my buddy sees first hand. But I have learned that what I am doing is pleasing God and I get to hear the reports from everyone. I have been putting stuff up to make people laugh. This is important to Glorify God by what I do and I have been called to do this. My buddy on the other side has been called to face the pistols and knives to bring Jesus Christ to the gangs, cartels, prostitutes and people on the streets. Everyone needs to find out what ministry God has called you to. Don’t worry God sometimes waits until we get older. God's events determine when God calls us. With all that is going on today God is calling his army so be ready. That means you! 08/25/2022 I consider myself a mature Christian but I still deal with doubt. God has me investing in silver because it is going to be good when he releases his Glory over the world. I believe it will happen yet this year. He also has me investing in families and gangs both. He always provides the resources in time so that I can do all three things as he asks. In other words, he has NEVER FAILED. When circumstances come against me, my faith seem to diminish and I become anxious like my King is going to abandon me. I start thinking about bad things that COULD happen and I would not be able to handle it. David experienced the same thing: Psalm 94:18-19 (New Living Translation) I cried out, “I am slipping!” but your unfailing love, O Lord, supported me. When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer. Many times God will use Christians in my life for that renewed hope and cheer. I appreciate that. You to can be that for other Christians also. We can also pray to our King. God will listen: Psalm 116:1-2 (New Living Translation) I love the Lord because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy. Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath! So, why is it when our faith is tested we began doubting with our King's track record? I need to understand the authority of God like the Centurion did: Matthew 8:8-10 8 The centurion replied, "Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. 9 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and that one, 'Come,' and he comes. I say to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it." 10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, "Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. He was confident that Jesus was unlimited in how he could perform the miracle. No doubt here at all. This may be the first time this centurion experienced Jesus at all but still he had no doubt that Jesus could accomplish healing his servant anywhere on the planet. I personally have experienced things from God and I should be as confident as this Centurion. The problem is that we will keep dealing with this until we have the faith of the Centurion. A lot of our doubting comes from the enemy in the spiritual warefare going on today. Jesus wants us to encourage one another to help eliminate doubt. We may need to pray that God binds the enemy who brings the spirit of doubt into our lives. I pray that I could have the faith of the Centurion so that I could blow Jesus away by my great faith. I definitely need to work on building my faith to do this. I really believe it is possible for this to happen. It just requires faith and a good personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
