Those leaders that started those religions ended up going to the grave. Even in our religion Jesus Christ also died and went to the grave. This is where the difference starts. He did not want to stay there and he rose from the dead. He knew that his work was not done and everything he has done was because of us. He is interested in our salvation and not sending us to hell. But we have to turn our hearts over to him and serve him. If not, the Lake of Fire will be our home for eternity. As the psalm acknowledges: Psalm 90:2,4 (New Living Translation) Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from beginning to end, you are God. We serve an everlasting God. Wouldn't it be better to be living with him. Jesus makes it simple. Ask him for forgiveness of your sins and turn your heart over to him. He will then put your name in the Lambs Book of Life. Jesus paid a extreme price for us. Let us serve him with a joyful heart to show him some respect. 06/06/2022 Walker Manufacturing makes one of the best lawnmowers in the world. One reason they are so successful is how they treat their employees. The owners walk around the entire complex asking employees if they need prayer or have any prayer requests. After they do that they take an interest in the employee and encourage them. I know they listen to them just in case they come up with a good idea to help the business. The rest of their success is when they turned their business over to God. The point is this: 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (New Living Translation) So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing. How many of us encourage our coworkers and brothers and sisters in Christ. We could change their world. Don't worry about the fact they may be your competition. God will reward you for turning down your interests for theirs. Your actions may actually bring a coworker to Jesus Christ. If not, you may have a happier coworker. Your brothers and sisters in Christ will be inspired by your encouragement. It will make them more bold and confident if they are encouraged. We want Paul to be able to say to us, "just as you are already doing." You students have greater impact over other students then adults have over adults especially if you are cool. I want to tell you a story how you can change the life of your fellow students. One of those students who is very well to do today had a testimony. He told the audience that when he was in high school that his self esteem was nearly gone. The starting quarterback came up to him and asked him to do some fun things with him. This guy was so cool that he did not care what anyone else thought. This began a friendship that they kept through high school. This encouraged him to do something big with his life. He finished the story by saying, "Before he asked me to be a friend, I had plans to kill myself that very night." Use your cool to save the life of another student. That is what Jesus would do. Any student can encourage another student. The only reason I brought up the cool students because almost all students want to be part of a certain group of kids. By investing time in these kids you are changing their world. Now is the time to tell them: 1 John 4:19 We love each other because he loved us first. 06/04/2022 There was a man whose name was Rush Limbaugh. He became famous because of his strong courage to talk about corruption in government. He had this famous saying that he would always quote just to irritate the left. He would say, " I have talent on-loan from God." I do have to agree with him that everything we are good at is a gift from God. When we die we give it back to God so he can give it to someone else. This even goes with blessings. They all go back to him after we die and he will bless someone else with what he shared with us. Thank you God for the talents you bestowed me with and the blessings you have given me to help others in need. I lift this verse up to you: 1 Chronicles 29:11 (New Living Translation) Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is yours, O Lord, and this is your kingdom. We adore you as the one who is over all things. 06/03/2022 How we speak to each other has a great impact on both parties. Many times when we become frustrated with life we speak harshly to our spouse or even friends. This in turn can create anxiety or tension in the other party. Even worse, a lost friendship. Solomon is right: Proverbs 15:1 (New Living Translation) A gentle answer deflects anger, but harsh words make tempers flare. If I keep my tone down it is more difficult to upset the other party. Soft tones keep friendships. If I raise my voice to my wife she will resent me. But using a soft tone saying the same thing will keep the tension to a minimum. James knows a lot about our tongue: James 3:1 Dear brothers and sisters, not many of you should become teachers in the church, for we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2 Indeed, we all make many mistakes. For if we could control our tongues, we would be perfect and could also control ourselves in every other way. 3 We can make a large horse go wherever we want by means of a small bit in its mouth. 4 And a small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong. 5 In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire. 6 And among all the parts of the body, the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself. 7 People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, 8 but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison. 9 Sometimes it praises our Lord and Father, and sometimes it curses those who have been made in the image of God. 10 And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right! 11 Does a spring of water bubble out with both fresh water and bitter water? 12 Does a fig tree produce olives, or a grapevine produce figs? No, and you can’t draw fresh water from a salty spring. I remember the movie "Star Wars". They would always talk about the power of the Force. I think our tongue has even more power then the fictional Force described in the movie. Our tongues can set the world on fire for Jesus Christ or advance the enemies foothold on our lives. We have a choice to make but never silence. What, you say that, "I am just going to be quiet to prevent inserting my foot into my mouth." Look what happens in silence: Job 11:3 Should I remain silent while you babble on? When you mock God, shouldn’t someone make you ashamed? We are to stand up for our God and speak about Jesus Christ to others. How can we lift up Thanksgiving to our King if we are silent: Psalm 30:12 that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever. Removing prayers from schools and abortions strong foothold are a result from silent Christians. Our continued silence has resulted in gay marriage, transgender behaviors and church lock downs. God gave us tongues to bring his message of Jesus Christ to the world; so speak up so people can hear you. The Holy Spirit will speak to the Father through our tongues and we do not want to stop that either. We need to follow this: Proverbs 15:28 The heart of the godly thinks carefully before speaking; the mouth of the wicked overflows with evil words 06/02/2022 I was reading Hebrews 9 as it described how the tent Temple mimics the holy place in heaven. Even the Ark of the Covenant mimicked the Ark in heaven which the cherubim are alive. Once a year the high priest would take an animal blood sacrifice to the most holy place for the remission of our sins. Just remember this is a magnificent copy but not the real thing. This had to be done because: Hebrews 9:22 In fact, according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified with blood. For without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness. The animal sacrifices went on for decades until this man Jesus came to earth. When he shed his pure blood on that cross, he changed things forever: Hebrews 9:12 When Christ went through the tent and entered once and for all into the Most Holy Place, he did not take the blood of goats and bulls to offer as a sacrifice; rather, he took his own blood and obtained eternal salvation for us. He became our last and only high priest. But Jesus was able to walk through the real deal to offer himself to the real Father just for us: Hebrews 9:28 (Good News Translation) In the same manner Christ also was offered in sacrifice once to take away the sins of many. He will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to save those who are waiting for him. The next mission is that Jesus is coming back when his church unites behind him. His real church is nothing like the mess we have today. God's message is being sugar coated and so called Christians have no problem supporting demonic platforms if it benefits their pocketbook. Our present day church needs to wake up and read God's word to know how to live. Pay attention to the last part of this verse which says "eagerly waiting". We could miss his return. 1 Thessalonians 5 New Living Translation 1 Now concerning how and when all this will happen, dear brothers and sisters, we don’t really need to write you. 2 For you know quite well that the day of the Lord’s return will come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night. 3 When people are saying, “Everything is peaceful and secure,” then disaster will fall on them as suddenly as a pregnant woman’s labor pains begin. And there will be no escape. 4 But you aren’t in the dark about these things, dear brothers and sisters, and you won’t be surprised when the day of the Lord comes like a thief. 5 For you are all children of the light and of the day; we don’t belong to darkness and night. 6 So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. 7 Night is the time when people sleep and drinkers get drunk. 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. There is a good reason not to waste too much time on worldly things. Hebrews 9:27 And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment. I do want my King to say to me that I did invest time in his Kingdom. He will also remind of the times when I slacked and missed some opportunities to serve him. Since Jesus Christ removes our sins from our life, God will never bring our sins up during judgment. I really believe just as President Trump is pushing MAGA, we should be pushing MCGA. MAKE CHURCHES GREAT AGAIN. This would put a smile on Jesus's face. 06/01/2022 With all of the corruption going on, I have noticed that a lot of people are talking more about Jesus coming back. It will be magnificent when he does come: 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (New Living Translation) For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the believers who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever. The only problem with this is that two things have to happen first. There are 2 billion people on the planet who have have not heard about Jesus Christ. The first requirement is that all will hear about his glorious name. Second today's church is a mess. We have Christians endorsing demonic platforms and are not standing with God's entire word. Until the church falls behind Jesus Christ United with him and walking in power he will not come back. Those churches that refuse will be eliminated. God despises the luke warm church. So lets get into his word and become bold forJesus. Now Jesus can return. Just praying for it and doing nothing is only going to pospone his return. He wants us all to get involved. Just think if we were as bold as the new testament church, Jesus would have come back by now. God is waiting on his church for Christ's return. God is still not done with the future of the planet. Look at what is yet to come. Revelation 21: 2-4 (New Living Translation) And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.” We serve a big God. 05/29/2022 There it is so much more to living the Godly life then just pleasing God. It affects everyone around you. What you do today will have an impact on your children. It can even effect your coworkers and the bosses business. Just think about it. You are living a godly life and tithing. Because of Malachi 3:10 there is a promise here: Malachi 3:10 New Living Translation 10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test! If your job is your only source of income God may use your employer as the method to bless you. Your blessings will even have some effect on your coworkers. This verse says it all: Psalm 103:17-18 (Good News Translation) But for those who honor the Lord, his love lasts forever, and his goodness endures for all generations of those who are true to his covenant and who faithfully obey his commands. Continue to pray for your family always. You may have a child who wants nothing to do with God but God put this verse into his word. Pray for your boss even if you don't like him. You never know, God may use him to greatly bless you. God really does want to do goodness in your life. Jesus Christ is the secret to a great family. Always serve him. 05/28/2022 Do you ever wonder if you love people enough. One test is when someone who has RECEIVED a promotion who has been working hard maybe even harder than you. How do you feel? Lets say you got a promotion and so did your coworker. Do you feel threatened? I hope in both cases you are happy for the other person. Love would do that. On the other end, if a coworker lost a spouse how would you react? Love would cause you to weep along with your coworker just as Paul says: Romans 12:15 (New Living Translation) Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep. We do not love enough if we cannot live this verse. It is time to ask the Holy Spirit into our lives if we have not done so. The Holy Spirit will make us more sensitive to other people along with stronger love. Could you imagine a church with this kind of love. Anyone facing a tragedy would have the support of the body and people would reach out to them to comfort them. This is what love does. 05/28/2022 We experience days of tragedy from time to time. During these times we can feel like we are all alone. David tells what really happens when you face tragedy: Psalm 56:8-10 New Living Translation 8 You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. 9 My enemies will retreat when I call to you for help. This I know: God is on my side! 10 I praise God for what he has promised; yes, I praise the Lord for what he has promised. Many times we feel like we want to be left alone when facing tragedy. But this is when we need God the most. The Holy Spirit can restore that joy. David wrote that our amazing Big God records every tear and every sorrow from the day we were born. That would be difficult to do if he wasn't standing by us. This is his promise: Hebrews 13:5 Don’t love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you. Both God and Jesus Christ are with us our entire journey. Disaster is not from God. Jeremiah confirms this: 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. How we handle bad situations tests our faith. God only wants good for us. We need to pray that God binds the devil. The devil smiles when we suffer. When Jesus rose from the dead he gave us authority over the devil: Luke 10:19 Look, I have given you authority over all the power of the enemy, and you can walk among snakes and scorpions and crush them. Nothing will injure you. Let us not lose hope. Our God is with us. Now that is cool! 05/27/2022 It is OK to be busy. The problem with being busy is that we forget to talk to others about Jesus Christ while we are doing what ever. It is even worse that we become busy to skip church and ignore people around us. After all God, I work hard all week and the weekends are for me to catch up. Many think this but it is not the heart of Jesus Christ at all. Paul made tents during the week to support himself: Acts 18:3 Paul lived and worked with them, for they were tent makers just as he was. God put this verse in the Bible for those who say they work too hard to serve God. Now since work is not an excuse, Paul talked about Jesus after work and on the weekends. It is not wrong to have projects to do unless it keeps you from reaching people. If you encounter someone while working, talk to them about things of God and work towards talking about Jesus. For example; When I go into the bank to pay my credit card off. I always tell them that this card takes gangs off the streets. It feeds them and along with sharing the message of Jesus Christ they give their hearts to him. I then tell them the next thing that happens their families are coming to pick them up and take them home. This results is a gang being completely removed off the streets. Many times the people I dialog with will start asking questions. I do know only Jesus Christ has the power to change the heart of men. The food is just a catalyst to get our foot into the door. We should have the attitude of Paul: Acts 20:24 (New Living Translation) But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God. If you say to yourself that this is not me, it may be time to pray that God gives you a heart change. After all Jesus Christ laid his life down for us and our excuse is that I am too busy. Totally not Cool! 05/26/2022 When Jesus started his ministry he was after our hearts even though we were sinners. This set of verses demonstrates that: John 8:3-11 3 As Jesus was speaking, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They put her in front of the crowd. 4 “Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?” At this point Jesus already had authority over the law. His resurrection would release us from the bondage of the law. 6 They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. 7 They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!” 8 Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust. I had a feeling Jesus was exposing them all writing in the dirt. He was showing their sins. Jesus does not put points on sin but will want us to stop doing it. 9 When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. 10 Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?” 11 “No, Lord,” she said. And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.” Jesus came to save us and he wants our hearts. This verse sums it up: John 3:17 (Good News Translation) For God did not send his Son into the world to be its judge, but to be its savior 05/25/2022 One of the gifts of the Holy Spirit is patience.This usually involves waiting and we all should use this time to listen to our King, Me included. James has something to say about this: James 1:19 (Good News Translation) Remember this, my dear friends! Everyone must be quick to listen, but slow to speak and slow to become angry. We need to think about everything and do research before we speak. So many times I want to make comments against people around me. But when I understand the circumstances behind it I am glad I kept my mouth shut. Even though they may be at fault, I keep remembering how Jesus Christ positively stood by me when I failed. I try not to forget that when I speak about other people. We also need to think about our responses anytime we speak. Our tone and interjecting four letter words can greatly reduce our cool factor. James wants us to be cool. That is why he wants us to think about what we say and how Jesus would react with what we say. Our words can be an embarrassment to those who we come into contact with us and it is nearly impossible to take it back. Always be speaking good words even if you talk to yourself. 05/24/2022 What is it like to love someone like Jesus does? I know he would like to be a best friend to us. He is wise enough to be a Father to us to bring us up right. He definitely would lay his life down to protect us. He already did that one. This verse defines what he want's us to do likewise: Romans 12:10 (New Living Translation) Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other. When we love people it should be genuine and not faked. Jesus does not fake anything. We should have fun when we honor each other. That should just be natural if we have the King's heart. 05/23/2022 Have you noticed today that advertising is always based on Me, Myself and I. The Advertiser directs their marketing skills towards our self-centered desires. Paul message is just the opposite: Romans 15:2 (New Living Translation) We should help others do what is right and build them up in the Lord. In Romans 15:3 it reminds us that even as powerful and awesome as Jesus is, he came to serve. Why do we think we are better then he is by having the world revolve around us. We need to make a heart change to take the focus off of us and look towards others in the area of serving God and disciplining. We need to encourage one another. The Holy Spirit is willing to help in this area. He knows the thoughts of everyone. He can Reveal details on other people's lives to assist you. Pray that he will show how to build these people up. Again, read God's Word to understand more about Jesus and what he stands for. There are mysteries in God's word that the Holy Spirit gives us. But you have to read it before he can Reveal it. 05/22/2022 Are you becoming fearful about what is going on? If you are, the enemy has you where he wants you. Fear is not in God's vocabulary. David has an answer to bad news: Psalm 112:6-7 Those who are righteous will be long remembered. 7 They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the Lord to care for them. But God will use fear against those who do not love him. Deuteronomy 11:25 No one will be able to stand against you, for the Lord your God will cause the people to fear and dread you, as he promised, wherever you go in the whole land. Paul verifies that fear is not from God: 2 Timothy 1:7 New Living Translation 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. Being born again with the Holy Spirit does this to us. It is difficult to do what Paul said to Timothy on our own. That is one reason Jesus sent the comforter to us. Just remember that Jesus Christ never abandons us even in our weaknesses. Romans 8:38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. Do not fear tomorrow no matter what the news may show. Mainstream media lies all the time to get us in a frenzy and fearful. These verses show that God is in control. You will be shocked to find out what our awesome God is up to. I believe the evidence is coming soon. His light will penetrate the darkness revealing everything the enemy is up to. Remain bold and confident that God is with you. Our God is honoring the prayers of the humble and covenant with the pilgrims. Jesus Christ wants to use the vast resources of the United States to reach the world to hear his glorious name. So just relax and enjoy what is about to happen. 05/20/2022 Before Jesus Christ can return this is the church he is looking for: Romans 15:5-6 (New Living Translation) May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of Christ Jesus. Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and glory to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to us to help us become this church. We become fitting followers of Jesus when we began to live like Christ wants us to. That includes not voting for demonic platforms like many Christians did in 2020. Jesus wants EVERYTHING to follow what he would do. Read God's word to know what that is. It impossible to know what Jesus wants without studying him. He is a lot more than what his resurrection did for us. Could you imagine what an undivided church must be like? The power of the enemy would be vanquished and the Holy Spirit would take over your church service. Now this is excitement in the church. This is the only thing a church should be doing. A church is not a place to entertain us but our worship is to Glorify our God. This is what we need to focus on is the God we serve. Just remember when the Holy Spirit moves it is never boring. Paul said basically the same thing to the Corinthians church: 1 Corinthians 1:10 (New Living Translation) I appeal to you, dear brothers and sisters, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, to live in harmony with each other. Let there be no divisions in the church. Rather, be of one mind, united in thought and purpose. 05/19/2022 When Jesus had his ministry from God his brothers thought he was a nut job. This included James. After the resurrection of Jesus Christ things dramatically changed. His writings are powerful and get to the point just like this one when he is talking about the Holy Spirit in your life. James 3:17-18 (New Living Translation) But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness. If you notice it starts with wisdom which is important for anything to work right. The Holy Spirit's wisdom is from above. It is the only place that you can find wisdom that contains the truth and is not tainted with sin. Have ever noticed people that are filled with the Holy Spirit, they exibit "peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others." You just want to be around those kind of people. We should all exhibit this. Even though good works cannot get us into the Kingdom of God, we should show mercy and be doing good works to other people. God commands that we have faith. But the same man James also said, "Faith without works is dead." That means true faith requires "fruit of good deeds". Sometimes you may have a child who exibits better behavior than another one. True love with the help of the Holy Spirit will keep you from showing favoritism which could damage the other child. This goes for anyone. They way you speak will show sincerity to them. The last part of this verse contains the promise: "And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness." Without compromising God's word, he loves it when we "plant seeds of peace". It brings back harmony and love is being spread. All these things Jesus wanted us to exibit in our lives. He sent the Holy Spirit to us to help with this. The flesh finds it difficult to do anything in this verse. Thank you Jesus for sending the Holy Spirit and your resurrection to make us righteous. 05/18/2022 I am writing this comment through another mans eyes. He is probably too humble to say these things but I feel it needs to be said. One of the greatest gifts God gave me is the ability to feed Christian families every weekend. The families that God gives me to bless are related. He seems to bring me wives that are sisters the most. The rest are brothers or brother and sister. These families are always praying when I arrive. I usually get to hear their prayers while I stand nearby. Every family has small children that warms my hearts when I meet them. The kids seem to always pray with power of the Holy Spirit. It is another story how all this came about. I see more gangs then I ever have and still make time to see the families first. They all have a physical need of buying groceries. This is when I came apon this verse: Hebrews 6:10 (New Living Translation) For God is not unjust. He will not forget how hard you have worked for him and how you have shown your love to him by caring for other believers, as you still do. I like to think I work hard for the King but I seem to always be having fun with the families instead of calling it work. I really am falling in love with the families in the poorer neighborhoods. They seem to have a special connection with God. What I am trying to say is that I am living Hebrews 6:10. It is all true. God is not unjust and I am going to be blessed by God as long as I keep my servants heart. It is exactly the same for you. Maintain that servants heart and continue to help believers in need, you will be rewarded also. Hebrews 6:10 contains a promise. 05/17/2022 God really does want to share his riches, wisdom and knowledge if we ask assuming we come to him with a servants. Even though God will not do anything without telling his prophets first: Amos 3:7 Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets. No one can usually figure out when or the exact details on how he is going to do something. Unless you have the gift of prophecy, those who do not listen to his prophets or listen to mainstream media are totally clueless on the things God is about to do: Romans 11:33 (New Living Translation) Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways! God really is unchanging. No one could figure him out in the old testament either: Ecclesiastes 11:5 (New Living Translation) Just as you cannot understand the path of the wind or the mystery of a tiny baby growing in its mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the activity of God, who does all things. I have listened to the various prophets and tested them. God is really about to do some big things in the short term probably this summer but I have no idea how he is going to do it. I have been told by God that he does not need my opinion on things. As I grow wiser I am glad he does not listen to my advice. God is like a well tuned machine. He operates very smoothly and lots of things are being accomplished while we serve him. As I write this more bad guys are being removed from this nation in secret. He will expose everything to us soon. Jesus Christ gets to use the resources of this nation to reach the whole world. Even though Jesus is going after the whole earth, the covenant the pilgrims made with him is allowing America to be the hub to reach all nations. I am excited to live in the most blessed nation on earth where I will get to see God work on his glorious terms. Oh by the way, God wins! And when he wins no man will be able take credit for it. That includes the fake gods out there. 05/16/2022 We watch the bad guys seeming to get away with everything. What good is to do good if there is no justice. If you believe God's word is true, let's see what God has to say about the situation: Psalm 1:1-3 1 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, 2 but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night. 3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither, whatever they do prospers If you believe this and follow this you are in for great Blessings. What else can we ask for. At least this pleases God and that is all that should matter. Let go and see what Jesus said: John 10:10 10 The thief's purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. JESUS basically said the same thing as King David. Again a rich and satisfying life sounds good to me. The wicked do not last long: Proverbs 29:16 When the wicked are in authority, sin flourishes, but the godly will live to see their downfall. Just remember the wicked will eventually offend someone who is also wicked. This could become deadly. How often are the wicked looking over their shoulder to see if someone may be coming after them in revenge. Honoring and living for God brings peace and fulfillment: Romas 15:13 I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. In conclusion: Deuteronomy 30:19 19 This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live. Now this is real living!
