Have you swept clean all he dirty little secrets and lies that hide in the darkened corners of your mind so the Holy Spirit may freely abide in all your thoughts and ideas ? Have you implemented your God given authority to come against any and all evil that befalls you and dilengently refused to bow down to anything but the Name above all names.. JESUS....?

God's Mercy

Image and video hosting by TinyPic



Psalms 136:1-26
O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy
endureth for ever.


“Every experience God gives us, every person he puts in our lives, is the perfect preparation for the future that only he can see.” Corrie Ten Boom


In the mist of my paralyzing agony I have found,


Psalm 46:1 (KJV)


” God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble “


...to be the gentle whisper of Jesus within my mind. . . .


Motivating me to carry on.....with the willingness to allow myself to be poured out for the good of others.


For with what mercy I have received from God I must measure it back upon all of mankind... both great and small, both friends and enemies alike. . . .


I must learn to allow my light to shine even on the darkest days of my life's journey. . . when hope seems dim and far off I must not give up. . . But stand up in the face of adversity. . .


For in so doing it will glorify my Father who is in Heaven. . . .


For the Light of His Love shines continually on the just and the unjust and He is forever merciful to those who seek Mercy. . . .


Psalms 18:2


The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

what have you done for your King ?




Jesus spoke ...and said


it is not the healthy who need a doctor ...


but the sick


But go and learn what this means...'" I desire mercy....not sacrifice"


For I have not come to call the righteous...


but the sinners ...



These words were intended to impact our life....the words we speak , our actions in ALL we do in the world in which we live...and how we treat ALL of those we come in contact with...


Especially our enemies and those we do not like or agree with.....


Time and time again the very heart of God is crushed as He watches over His children as witness to their lack of mercy for others....


We whom are Seasoned Christians are Accountable ...."to whom much is given much will be required".....


We know the truth for it is given to us by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us...Sent by God not only to comfort us But to guide us into All Truth...


What is Truth...?


It is the Word of God that was made flesh and dwelt among us...


How do some say... Lo, I believe in the Christ........yet they forsake His Word.. For one can Not be separated from the other for they are One and the same....


I look out upon this vast expanse of people and see others tearing apart their Leaders, their peers and strangers alike and in the same breath they lay claim to salvation through Christ Jesus....


My soul grieves and I groan in the spirit, and in the wake of my tears I wonder how many lives are being lost to the Kingdom because of their total disregard for what God called us to do...


Jesus shed His Blood for All humanity..... He saved us so that through us others could witness His Great Love, Mercy and Forgiveness ....


What Good are you to God if your salvation saves only you ?


This is what Jesus did for SINNERS.... What are you doing this day for Sinners to honor your King ?

Quiet moments





The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.



Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
(or through the darkest valley),
I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.


You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.


Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever
.



A Christian's viewpoint on backslidding....


Religious people...Hung Jesus on the cross... Christians cried...


We as Christians ALL came to Christ a Sinner.....


Now I do Not know about your life before you accepted Christ... but I can tell you that mine was ravaged and drenched in sin the day I fell to my knees crying out to God in repentance....


and what happened in that EXACT moment ?... The BLOOD of Christ that was shed on Calvary for each and EVERY human ...fell from the Body of Christ and drenched me in it's wonder working power...


For though my sins were as scarlet they are now as white as snow...


I am a NEW creature in Christ Jesus...old things have passed away and behold all things have become new.......


The Holy Spirit is grieved to see Christ's followers rioting in excess in a wanton display of attacking the human frailties and Sins of others... Blatantly making a spectacle of people who have publicly asked for forgiveness.....


They have succeeded in Insulting the very Crucifixion of Christ...Religious people are these ... wells without water.....


This Present Darkness...a great book


Looking for a great book to read.......well here it is.....


This Present Darkness


by Frank E. Peretti


It is a Fictional Story.......and one you will never forget.......about angels and principalities in the air all around us...and the power of prayer...


I recall that long ago day in 1988 when a friend of mine called me to tell me she had just finished a book that was so remarkable she could not stop reading until she read it all in one sitting. She also said she was going to give it to me with the warning Do Not pick it up to read until you have the time ..because you will not be able to put it down ....until you read it from cover to cover...


I thought to my self , okay, sure.... doubting it would happen to me because as much as I enjoy reading I rarely read an entire book without putting it to rest at least once or twice.....


I can assure you once I picked this book up I did indeed read all evening and all through the night until the morning light came through my bedroom window... my friend had Not exaggerated....


This Book is life transforming....it will open your eyes to the power of Prayer in ways some of you never gave thought to......


During the past 20 years I have given this book to numerous people...saved and unsaved....because it is a fictional storybook with Christian undertones it is the perfect gift for those you are witnessing to about the wonder working power of Prayer.....


As a Christian this is Must Read Book ... I assure you will Not be disappointed....


I just ordered another copy on ebay and for a new Copy with shipping and handling paid a whopping $3.49.... This Present Darkness < to view on ebay.....


I look forward to reading it again as soon as it arrives....



The Vine

Better Times ahead...Ttestimony


So many times when we feel discouraged or downtrodden it can become so easy to feel lost, alone and on our own.....


But it is in those times when all else seems beyond hope and failure seems imminent....that if we sit still before God we will hear His Quiet, ever present, voice speak to us whispering words of Comfort and Love...


For it is never God who leaves us But we who leave Him......


I remember that long ago day when in an act of suicide I called out to God and said these words... "God I do not know if you are real but if you are I just flushed my life down the toilet and if you have any use for the wretched ugly person that I am you can have me".


It was at the moment I knew Jesus walked into my heart and filled me with his Holy Spirit.......and I went to sleep.....


I remember waking up in the hospital 27 hours later,...after what the doctors described as an overdose intended to kill a horse and after my family being told I would not make it because my kidneys were failing .... But God had other plans for me.....


You see I was done with "self' and I unknowingly had just offered myself as a living vessel to be used in any way God saw fit to share the Gospel of Christ.....and so it was then and it will be until my dying breath...


Now I can not say there have not been times when my flesh has not reared it's ugly head and had it's way with my mouth. You know, that unruly tongue full of deadly poison.. no man can tame that James warns us about in chapter 3...


But the Secret weapon.....? Continually staying immersed in the Word of God and praying for the Conviction of the Holy Spirit to prick your conscious at all times as to when you are displeasing your Heavenly Father.....


I encourage each of you reading these words, to KNOW that no matter how dark the storm , how great the obstacles, how sad, how lonely, or how angry you might be on this day in your life .... the Light of the Lord will Rise to shine in your soul and fill you with His Peace, His Mercy, His Forgiveness, His Long-suffering, His Joy, and His Love...for you are His child, His creation and He may not be finished with you yet and He certainly will not leave the job undone ...


For as Paul wrote to the Phillippians "that he which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ"

Is Your Angel Lonely ?


Is this your Angel ? Wandering alone on the distant shoreline....waiting for your call ? Wondering why you choose to walk through life alone....


God loves to give His angels charge over us and all of our ways...


There are Nine types of Angels....read story in full



1. Seraphim


These are the angels who are closest to God. They encircle his throne and emit an intense fiery light representing his love. Seraphim are considered "fiery serpents" and not even the other divine beings may look at them.


2. Cherubim (Plural of Cherub)


These angels are the keepers of celestial records and hold the knowledge of God.


3. Thrones


Thrones' appearance is perhaps the most bizarre of the first grouping. They are said to look like great glowing wheels covered with many eyes. They serve as God's chariot and dispense his judgment in order to carry out his desires for us.


4. Dominions or Dominations


Think of dominions as middle management. They receive orders from seraphim and cherubim, then dish out duties to the "worker bee" angels of the lower orders.


5. Virtues


. They also take orders from the angels above and convert them into miracles for the deserving. When they make themselves known to us in their earthly form, they are musicians, artists, healers, and scientists who work with the power of love, as well as physics.


6. Powers


They are the angels of birth and death. Some believe that they also preside over demons who wish to overthrow the world.


7. Principalities


the principalities who oversee everything. They guide our entire world -- nations, cities, and towns. What's more, they are in charge of religion and politics. As if their plate isn't full enough, they are also in charge of managing the earthly duties of the angels below them.


8. Archangels


They, along with the angels, are guardians of people and all things physical. But don't call on them to help you personally; archangels respond best when dealing with matters involving all humankind. They are the first order of angels that appear only in human form.


9. Angels


Angels are the true intermediaries between God and individual people. Angels don't watch over nations; they safeguard households and individuals who believe in God and keep them safe from demons. They nurture, counsel, and heal. We all have a "personal angel," better known as our guardian angel, with us daily.


It is #9 Angel......I would like bring to your remembrance......



10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.


11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.


12They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.


13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
