¿Has fracasado en el amor? ¿Te han roto el corazón? ¿Han traicionado tu confianza? ¿Han subestimado tu vida y te han causado mucho dolor? Si la respuesta a algunas de estas preguntas es sí, entonces, este mensaje es para ti. Aunque el ser humano sea egoísta, traicionero y orgulloso por naturaleza, aún se puede creer en el amor. Dios es amor y el que ha conocido a Dios puede conocer el verdadero amor. Su amor es infinito, incondicional e inquebrantable. Su amor es eterno, es inmensurable y muchas veces indescriptible. Pero, si tu corazón ha sido roto, Dios también lo puede sanar. Él es experto en sanar las heridas más profundas del alma. Jesús fue traicionado, vituperado, maltratado y subestimado. Sin embargo, nunca dejó de amar a los demás. Es más, Su amor fue tanto que lo llevó a al cruz pagando por las ofensas de todos como su hubiera sido un criminal. El amor de Dios es perfecto y colma nuestras imperfecciones. Su amor es real, constante y sorprendente. De modo que aunque hayas fracasado en el amor, Él te puede restaurar, levantar y dar una nueva oportunidad. ¿Conoces de este tipo de amor? La Biblia dice en 1 Juan 4:18, “ 18 sino que el amor perfecto echa fuera el temor. El que teme espera el castigo, así que no ha sido perfeccionado en el amor” (NIV)

Nebuchadnezzar, and the Antichrist: Two kings cut from the same cloth. Many of us would like to have more information about "The Man of Sin," "The Beast," "6-6-6." The Bible gives us only the lowlights. But he has a sort of "twin brother" in the Old Testament. Both of them are super-kings, both are identified with beasts, and both love statues. We're in Revelation 13. Here's Jim with Part 2 of, The Next Babylon.

A synagogue leader came and knelt before Jesus and said, ‘My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live.' Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples. Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself, ‘If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.' Jesus turned and saw her. ‘Take heart, daughter,' he said, ‘your faith has healed you.' And the woman was healed at that moment. When Jesus entered the synagogue leader's house and saw the noisy crowd and the people playing pipes, he said, ‘Go away. The girl is not dead but asleep.' But they laughed at him. After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up. News of this spread through all that region. As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, ‘Have mercy on us, Son of David!' When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, ‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?' ‘Yes, Lord,' they replied. (Matthew 9.18-28, NIV)

I remember it like yesterday: Professor Joe Master was the most intimidating instructor I ever encountered during my accounting degree. He'd call on you, and you'd better be ready. At one point, for six weeks, I was sicker than a dog. With temperatures over 102 (and eventually discovering I had pneumonia), I went to class every week, dreading whether Mr. Master would get me up in front of the class to answer a tough question. Then this professor did something unexpected: He never called on me once. He showed me compassion when I needed it most. Life has a way of bringing us to desperate places where we question if God cares about our pain or our struggle. Writing about this kind of grief and pain, the weeping prophet Jeremiah makes a declaration that you need to hear today: “Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22–23, NIV). When you're at the end of your rope and maybe even at the end of your hope, remember this truth: Your God is the God of compassion.

2 Thessalonians 1-3 (NIV)

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“Waiting is not a waste.”~Mark Vroegop (author Dark Clouds, Deep Mercies, pastor, president of TGC)“In the waiting, in the searchingIn the healing, in the hurtingLike a blessing buried in the broken piecesEvery minute, every momentWhere I've been or where I'm goingEven when I didn't know itOr couldn't see itThere was Jesus.”~Zach Williams (Southern Rock artist), feat. Dolly Parton “Waters never part, until our feet get wet.”~Petra (Christian Rock group) “Life doesn't discriminateBetween the sinners and the saints.It takes and it takes and it takesAnd we keep living anyway.We rise and we fall and we break.And we make our mistakes.And if there's a reason I'm still aliveWhen so many have died,Then I'm willing toWait for it,Wait for it."~Leslie Odom Jr. as Aaron Burr in Lin Manuel-Miranda's Hamilton “The waiting is the hardest part.”~Tom Petty (Rock artist, 1950-2017) SERMON PASSAGEJoshua 3:1-3, 3:9-4:3 (NIV)Joshua 3 1 Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim and went to the Jordan, where they camped before crossing over. 2 After three days the officers went throughout the camp, 3 giving orders to the people: “When you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, and the Levitical priests carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it….” 9 Joshua said to the Israelites, “Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God. 10 This is how you will know that the living God is among you and that he will certainly drive out before you the Canaanites, Hittites, Hivites, Perizzites, Girgashites, Amorites and Jebusites. 11 See, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth will go into the Jordan ahead of you. 12 Now then, choose twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe. 13 And as soon as the priests who carry the ark of the Lord—the Lord of all the earth—set foot in the Jordan, its waters flowing downstream will be cut off and stand up in a heap.” 14 So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant went ahead of them. 15 Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water's edge, 16 the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away, at a town called Adam in the vicinity of Zarethan, while the water flowing down to the Sea of the Arabah (that is, the Dead Sea) was completely cut off. So the people crossed over opposite Jericho. 17 The priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground, while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.Joshua 4 1 When the whole nation had finished crossing the Jordan, the Lord said to Joshua, 2 “Choose twelve men from among the people, one from each tribe, 3 and tell them to take up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, from right where the priests are standing, and carry them over with you and put them down at the place where you stay tonight.”

Faith Makes a MoveFaith isn't fruitful until you make a move.PassagesRomans 12:2 (NIV) – “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”Romans 10:9–10 (NIV) – “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”James 2:17 (NIV) – “Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”Matthew 14:22–33 (NIV) – Full passage with verse numbers.Psalm 23:4 (NIV) – “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”Matthew 14:22–33 (NIV)22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. 23 After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone, 24 and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it. 25 Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake.26 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It's a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear. 27 But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid.” 28 “Lord, if it's you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.” 29 “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” 31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” 32 And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. 33 Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”Points for SlidesFaith in the Mind → Fueled by God thoughts (Romans 12:2)Faith in the Mouth → “Faith is voice-activated” (Romans 10:9–10)Faith in the Movement → Faith isn't fruitful until you make a moveVerseJames 2:17 (NIV) – “Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”Point 1 – God Has a Destination for YouMatthew 14:22 – “Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side.”Point 2 – Storms Will ComeMatthew 14:24 – “But the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.”Matthew 14:27 – “Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid.”Point 3 – A Little Faith Is EnoughMatthew 14:28 – “Lord, if it's you, tell me to come to you on the water.”Matthew 14:29 – “Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus.”Faith moves on the command, not the conditions.James 2:17 – “Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”Point 4 – Faith in the Storm Is Greater Than Faith After the StormMatthew 14:33 – “Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God.'”Psalm 23:4 (NIV) – “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”

Johnny Glover (Pastor of Worship), "Saving Faith", Children's Time, Choir, Blended Worship Praise Team (8:45 Service).          13.  On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to speak to the women who had gathered there.  14.  One of those listening was a woman from the city of Thyatira named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. She was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul's message.  15.  When she and the members of her household were baptized, she invited us to her home. “If you consider me a believer in the Lord,” she said, “come and stay at my house.” And she persuaded us.          25.  About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.  26.  Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone's chains came loose.  27.  The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself because he thought the prisoners had escaped.  28.  But Paul shouted, “Don't harm yourself! We are all here!”          29.  The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas.  30.  He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”          31.  They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.”  32.  Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house.  33.  At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized.  34.  The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he was filled with joy because he had come to believe in God—he and his whole household.          35.  When it was daylight, the magistrates sent their officers to the jailer with the order: “Release those men.”  36.  The jailer told Paul, “The magistrates have ordered that you and Silas be released. Now you can leave. Go in peace.”          37.  But Paul said to the officers: “They beat us publicly without a trial, even though we are Roman citizens, and threw us into prison. And now do they want to get rid of us quietly? No! Let them come themselves and escort us out.”          38.  The officers reported this to the magistrates, and when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens, they were alarmed.  39.  They came to appease them and escorted them from the prison, requesting them to leave the city.    40.  After Paul and Silas came out of the prison, they went to Lydia's house, where they met with the brothers and sisters and encouraged them. Then they left.          (Acts 16:13-15; 25-40 NIV)

By Rev Charlie Lacey | Genesis 1: 27-28, Genesis 2: 20-25Genesis 1: 27-28, Genesis 2: 20-25 (NIV)What does it mean to be male and female – why is it important – and how much does our gender have to do with our identity anyway?

Ps Gina picks a selection of biblical characters and explains how they show us real people living through real situations and struggles witnessing the overwhelming grace and power of God. These people got through their journey of life and can help us in our journey of life as well. The Bible is a grace gift from God which we all need to delve into and fill our minds with the scriptural truths associated with Kingdom living; the world would have us believe differently if we are not careful! 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NIV) says "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work".Ps Gina speaks about Gideon (from the weakest Clan in Manassa). Here God is showing His strength in the midst of Gideon's weakness. Daniel was taken Exile by the evil Babylonians. He grew up in a culture where he knew he was the child of God but they stole it out of that culture, put him in the Babylonian culture, which is a god-hating, Bible hating culture. He was told to eat from the king's table, to eat things that were against the law of Moses which is what Daniel lived. But he ate just vegetables and water, not the king's food, and ended up the strongest man there, his Godly defiance and prayer is something for us all to take on our journey of life.PS Gina also talks about Hannah and Anna, linked by name and a thousand year gap in the Biblical history. Both these women get to come on her journey because they were amazing, understanding what it's like to labour and pray, when not seeing anything for years and years and years. Then they experience God, He comes through. They understood what it is to go to God in the worst times of their lives so they didnt get bitter and twisted. They understood that God had purposes and plans.Her message is clear - the Bible is not religion, it is the word of God gifted by grace to us to show us how to live and to give us hope, peace and strength in the ups and downs of daily life.

คอลัมน์ “สดแต่เช้า”ปีที่5 (ตอนที่154) UNITY “ ความเป็นหนึ่งเดียวน้ำหนึ่งใจเดียวกัน” “จงเพียรพยายามให้คงความเป็นน้ำหนึ่งใจเดียวกัน ซึ่งพระวิญญาณทรงประทานนั้นด้วยสันติภาพเป็นพันธนะ” ‭‭ ~เอเฟซัส‬ ‭4‬:‭3‬ ‭TH1971‬‬ “Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”‭‭ ~Ephesians‬ ‭4‬:‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬ คุณเห็นด้วยกับคำกล่าวดังต่อไปนี้หรือไม่ที่ว่า “คริสตจักรที่เป็นหนึ่งเดียวกัน คือคำพยานที่ทรงพลังที่สุด!” (A united church is the most powerful testimony.)“Unity” หรือ ความเป็นหนึ่งใจเดียวกัน มีสำคัญต่อคริสตจักรเป็นอย่างมาก เพราะเป็นคำพยานที่ยิ่งใหญ่และเป็นแก่นสำคัญที่ทำให้คริสตจักรดำรงอยู่และก้าวหน้าต่อไปได้ตามน้ำพระทัยของพระเจ้าUnity มีความสำคัญดังนี้1. Unity สะท้อนถึงเอกภาพของพระเจ้า(3เป็นหนึ่ง:พระบิดา พระบุตร พระวิญญาณ) ~ทำให้โลกเห็นพระสิริของพระเจ้าและเชื่อว่าพระเยซูคือพระเจ้า (ยอห์น 17:21-23)2.Unity สำแดงความรักของคริสเตียน~ทำให้คนทั้งหลายรู้ว่าเราเป็นสาวกของพระเยซูคริสต์ (ยอห์น 13:34-35)3.Unity นำสันติสุขมาสู่คริสตจักร~ทำให้สมาชิกมีความสุขและขอบคุณพระเจ้า (‭‭โคโลสี‬ ‭3‬:‭15‬)4. Unity สามารถป้องกันการแตกแยก~ ทำให้ความขัดแย้งไม่อาจทำลายคริสตจักรได้ (1 โครินธ์ 1:10))5.Unity สามารถทำให้ความยินดีเต็มเปี่ยม~ ทำให้มีความคิดและจิตใจอย่างเดียวกัน (‭‭ฟีลิปปี‬ ‭2‬:‭2‬ ‭)6.Unity สามารถจัดการกับความบาปได้เร็ว~ทำให้ลดความเสียหายด้วยความรักเมตตา (‭‭1 เปโตร‬ ‭3‬:‭8‬)7.Unity เสริมสร้างคริสตจักรให้ก้าวหน้า~ทำให้แข็งแรงมีพลังแบ่งเบาภาระและเติบโตขึ้น (เอเฟซัส 4:11-16) พี่น้องที่รัก“เราไม่จำเป็นต้องเหมือนกันทุกอย่าง แต่เราจำเป็นต้องเดินไปด้วยกันในพระคริสต์ !”(We don't have to be the same in everything, but we must walk together in Christ.) Unity ในคริสตจักร มีความสำคัญยิ่ง เพราะการมีใจเป็นหนึ่งเดียวกันในพระคริสต์ แม้จะต่างฐานะ สถานภาพ ต่างความคิดและความสามารถ แต่เมื่อร่วมมือ ร่วมใจ ด้วยความรัก ก็สามารถบรรลุความสำเร็จตามเป้าหมาย ก่อเกิดความแข็งแรง เจริญเติบโต และเป็นพยานของพระคริสต์ต่อโลกนี้ และสะท้อนพระสิริของพระเจ้า เหมือนดังคำกล่าวที่ว่า“ความเป็นน้ำหนึ่งใจเดียวกัน ทำให้คริสตจักรสะท้อนพระสิริของพระเจ้าได้ชัดเจนที่สุด”(Unity makes the church reflect God's glory most clearly.) …เห็นด้วยไหมครับ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ธงชัย ประดับชนานุรัตน์ 1กันยายน2025 (ตอนที่154 ของปีที่5)#YoutubeCJCONNECT#คริสตจักรแห่งความรัก #Churchoflove #ShareTheLoveForward #ChurchOfJoy #คริสตจักรแห่งความสุข #NimitmaiChristianChurch #คริสตจักรนิมิตใหม่ #ฮักกัยประเทศไทย #อัลฟ่า #หนึ่งล้านความดี

1 Thessalonians 5 (NIV)

This went from a song of worship to a prayer real quick. But I'm always going to shift when Holy Spirit is moving.Intimate Encounters was birthed from a place of authentic worship. This is your sneak peek into my private time with God. The purpose of intimate encounters is to encourage, inspire, and influence others to worship God authentically. Unrehearsed, not uniformed, intentionally and raw! “You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭22‬-‭24‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Bible Reading: Acts 3:18-21; 2 Corinthians 4:16-18; 2 Thessalonians 3:16Marilyn gazed at her dad as he dozed in the hospital bed. She hated the atrocious yellow hospital gown and the tubes that went into his chest. He was supposed to be strong, but here he just looked tired and weary. "How much longer will he be here?" Marilyn asked Mom hesitantly. She desperately wanted Dad home. A deep sigh came from her mom. She rubbed her forehead. "I don't know, honey. The doctor is unsure."Marilyn bit her lip. "Doesn't God want Dad to be healed?"Mom took Marilyn's hand in her own, and Marilyn leaned into the warm touch in the otherwise cold and bare room. "God loves us and your dad so much, Marilyn--more than we could ever comprehend. He doesn't want us to be sick or suffer. God is good, and He hates our pain, but He allows it in our lives for reasons we don't fully understand.""I hate it too." Marilyn glanced at Dad again as he slept.Mom squeezed her hand. "Every day I ask God, 'Why is there sickness?'" Marilyn felt assured knowing Mom asked the same big questions she did. "The world isn't supposed to be this way," Mom said. "Even though we humans messed it up with our sin, God is at work every single day to make it whole again. That work is called restoration.""And He's doing this now?" Mom nodded. "It started in the first book of the Bible when God promised to bless His people and guide them when they were lost. Then Jesus died on the cross for our sins and rose again so our relationship with God could be restored. Jesus also healed and fed people, giving us a glimpse of God's plan for eternal restoration. Today I see His restoration in the gifts He's given people and the ways they use them to help others--like the doctors caring for your dad. And one day, God promises to bring complete and total restoration. There will be no more sickness and no more death forever."Dad stirred in his bed as Marilyn asked, "But what about today?""Today I hold on to that hope knowing that God is with me, you, and Dad," Mom said.Marilyn smiled at Dad as he slowly opened his eyes. Hope. For now, that was enough. –Zoe BricknerHow About You?Have you or anyone you know ever stayed in the hospital or suffered from a sickness or disease? Have you asked God why there's such brokenness on our planet? Take heart. He sees your pain and holds you close. He has been faithful in the past and will one day fulfill His promise to completely heal and restore all that is broken. Then there will be no more sickness, pain, or death.Today's Key Verse:So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (NIV) (2 Corinthians 4:18)Today's Key Thought:God will restore the world

“One day Jesus told his disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never give up.” (Luke 18:1 NLT) Even if prayer were a difficult thing to do, which it is not, or an unpleasant thing to do, which it is not, we still would have every reason to pray because we are commanded in Scripture to do so. The apostle Paul wrote, “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6–7 NLT). And Luke 18:1 tells us that Jesus used a story to show His followers “that they should always pray and never give up” (Luke 18:1 NLT). Prayer is God’s appointed way for us to obtain things. This doesn’t mean that God is like some big Santa in Heaven. He’s not standing by, ready to grant our every wish. Prayer concerns something much more important: our needs. God invites us to take our every need to Him. We see it in Paul’s words in Philippians 4. We see it in David’s psalms. We see it in Jesus’ alone time with His Father. We see it in the lives of countless Bible characters. Whatever was on their minds, whatever was in their path, whatever was impacting their lives, God wanted them to involve Him in it. Jesus said, “Pray like this: Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need” (Matthew 6:9–11 NLT). If you need it, God wants you to tell Him about it. Do you have needs right now? Pray about it. Do you need His provision? Pray about it. Do you need His healing touch? Pray about it. Go to God with your requests, and your heavenly Father, who knows you need these things, will hear you. James wrote, “You do not have because you do not ask God” (James 4:2 NIV). Think about that. You might ask, “Why is it that I never know what the will of God is for my life?” Answer: You do not have because you do not ask God. You might ask, “Why is it that I never have the opportunity to lead people to the Lord?” Answer: You do not have because you do not ask God. You might ask, “Why don’t I feel more confident when I face spiritual battles?” Answer: You do not have because you do not ask God. I wonder how many answers to prayer would be waiting for us if we were to just pray about things. What would happen if we just said, “Lord, I’ve never actually brought this before You, but I’m praying about it now.” The worst-case scenario is that God will say no. But what if God says yes? Reflection question: What need will you take to God in prayer today?

1 Thessalonians 3-4 (NIV)

Political leaders believe they're working for "the people," or for their country, or for their legacy. Fiction. Fiction. Fiction. Anyone placed in a position of power works for God. He or she is a deputized agent of the Almighty for suppressing wickedness and promoting righteousness. And this is true, by the way, whether the leader is a Christian, a pagan or an atheist. Even the greatest king in history. Even the coming Antichrist.

Johnny Glover (Pastor of Worship), "Saving Faith", Children's Time, Modern Worship Praise Team (11:15 Service).          13.  On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to speak to the women who had gathered there.  14.  One of those listening was a woman from the city of Thyatira named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. She was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul's message.  15.  When she and the members of her household were baptized, she invited us to her home. “If you consider me a believer in the Lord,” she said, “come and stay at my house.” And she persuaded us.          25.  About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.  26.  Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone's chains came loose.  27.  The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself because he thought the prisoners had escaped.  28.  But Paul shouted, “Don't harm yourself! We are all here!”          29.  The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas.  30.  He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”          31.  They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.”  32.  Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house.  33.  At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized.  34.  The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he was filled with joy because he had come to believe in God—he and his whole household.          35.  When it was daylight, the magistrates sent their officers to the jailer with the order: “Release those men.”  36.  The jailer told Paul, “The magistrates have ordered that you and Silas be released. Now you can leave. Go in peace.”          37.  But Paul said to the officers: “They beat us publicly without a trial, even though we are Roman citizens, and threw us into prison. And now do they want to get rid of us quietly? No! Let them come themselves and escort us out.”          38.  The officers reported this to the magistrates, and when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens, they were alarmed.  39.  They came to appease them and escorted them from the prison, requesting them to leave the city.    40.  After Paul and Silas came out of the prison, they went to Lydia's house, where they met with the brothers and sisters and encouraged them. Then they left.          (Acts 16:13-15; 25-40 NIV)

Your newsfeed needs an interpreter! Ideally journalists would tell us about events that really happened. But even then, those occurrences would need context, and some sort of key or template so that we could make sense of them. You're way ahead of me: The Bible is that key. Today's headlines are just random recitations without the grid of the eternal Word of God. Let's take another peek at the back of the Book, Revelation 13.

1 Thessalonians 2 (NIV)

Heavenly Father, I am your child, your heir. Help me to grasp that.Keywords: Father; heir; inheritance; joint heir; revelation; family.Romans 8:18 NIV

I'm bringing back your absolute favourite guest, Nivek Harrison, for a special 2 part series. Niv is our incredible online business manager and longtime co-coach here at Swift Ventures and we're peeling back the curtains on how we co-coach in the Scalable Freedom Mastermind, what it practically looks like behind the scenes and how we work together to serve our clients in the best possible way. Niv and I have completely different skillsets which makes our dynamic really special and something that I absolutely cherish. If you've been curious about adding a co-coach to your mastermind or wondering how the dynamics actually play out behind the scenes, this conversation is for you.We talk about the foundation of successful co-coaching, which starts with values alignment paired with complementary strengths. I share why you don't want a carbon copy of yourself as a co-coach and how different perspectives actually serve your clients better. We explore the crucial role of trust in co-coaching relationships and why giving your co-coach freedom to anchor into their leadership creates the safe, supportive environment clients crave. The conversation also covers how to handle disagreements constructively, removing ego from the equation to focus on what's best for the business and clients. We address the common concern of "what if my perfect co-coach leaves?" and discuss how to integrate their expertise without making them the cornerstone your mastermind depends on.Key Takeaways from This Episode:• Find a co-coach with complementary strengths, not someone who's a carbon copy of you • Trust is the foundation—give your co-coach freedom to lead in their expertise • Handle disagreements with clear communication and remove ego from the situation • Always come back to what's best for the business and client, even if personal opinions differ • Integrate co-coach expertise as enhancement, not as the core foundation of your mastermind • Your mastermind must be able to thrive even if your co-coach moves on • Stay actively present as the lead coach to maintain the integrity of the client experience • Robust systems and documentation are essential for seamless co-coaching collaborationIf you're considering adding co-coaching to your mastermind or wondering how to make the dynamics work effectively, remember that it starts with finding someone whose strengths complement yours and whose values align with your mission. When you get that foundation right, the magic that unfolds will benefit everyone involved. Make sure you stay tuned for Part 2 next week.Connect with Nivek Harrison:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thevirtualchapter/Podcast: Effortless Online SystemsConnect with Ellie: Sign up for my FREE 3 day training Build, Fill & Scale a Mastermind hereApply for the Scalable Freedom Mastermind hereFREE Private Podcast “Inside a 7-Figure Mastermind Business” hereWebsite:         https://www.ellieswift.com/Instagram:     @elliehswiftFacebook Group:     www.facebook.com/groups/shineonsocialellieswift/

Is the Antichrist creeping up on us? Will we awaken one day to find the Mark of the Beast hidden in our computers, our phones, our watches? We know that the devil loves to quietly infiltrate our institutions - including our churches. The Snake is a sneak. But in the Last Days he'll be a lot less subtle. Big, worldwide signs and universal edicts will be his new style. Today, we'll learn some of that Satanic Imagery, with Jim.

Here's the world's biggest geography problem! If the End Times prophecies are to be fulfilled - including some made by Jesus Himself - then we have an issue. We'll need a temple for the Antichrist to desecrate, and God's temple has only one possible location: on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. Not only is there no temple there now; there's a mosque on that hill!

Here in Oklahoma we have more than our fair share of storms - especially in the springtime. More than our fair share of tornadoes. I know. I know. We live right in the smack dab middle of Tornado Alley so what should we expect? This week's song is called Like Lightning and Thunder and the story behind it is probably not one you might expect. I was on a 40 day fast in May and June of 2010 and I was experiencing many major storms of life. Let's just say that I was feeling somewhat overwhelmed by life. The storms seemed to be raging out of control and I did not know what to do. I then began to meditate on Psalm 40 along with Isaiah 40 as a means of helping me stay focused on the fast and my need for the Lord to intervene and restore me physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. On may 10, 2010 - day 8 of the fast - I happened to be meditating on Psalm 40 verse 5a which says: Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us [plans for us]. Psalm 40:5a NASB As I began to meditate on this passage of Scripture - began to just mull it over in my mind - I kept getting stuck on the phrase ‘many are the wonders which you have done' and for some reason, I was reminded of something I did quite a few times when my children were still at home. During some of those springtime tornado storms I mentioned earlier, I would often load my children into our 15 passenger van and we would go storm chasing. Don't bother calling child protective services. They are all grown and out of the house now and actively seeking therapy for these episodes. Seriously, I wanted the children to have a healthy fear of the power of those storms, but I also wanted them to develop a sense of wonder and awe at the beauty and creativity and power of God's love being demonstrated right before our eyes. With every bolt of lightning, we oohed and aahed about how massive or how beautiful the display was…at how creative God was in the way no two lightning bolts were ever the same…at how some would flare out into dozens of streams streaking across the sky while still others seemed to crash directly into the earth with one incredibly intense impact. We marveled at the way in which some thunder seemed to all along as if it were bouncing off of the clouds seeming to echo for several seconds while still other claps of thunder would sound as if a bomb had just exploded very near the van. I taught them how to estimate how near the lightning strike actually was by teaching them that if you count five seconds between a lightning strike and the thunder that follows it, that means lightning is just one mile away. I thoroughly enjoyed these storm chases and enjoyed watching my children overcome their fears and begin to see with eyes of wonder - even in a storm. And then it dawned on me. I needed to learn to see the spiritual and mental and emotional storms of life in much the same way as I saw a physical storm. Rather than being overwhelmed and overcome by the storms of life, I could step back while in the midst of these storms and see them from God's point of view. The song Like Lightning and Thunder was born that day and I recorded it just as you will hear it. I added the storm sounds later from a recording of a storm I sat through while on the front porch of our house. This song gives me a much greater appreciation of the magnitude of God's power and creativity…and it does something very healing in my soul. SONG [Psa 135:6-7 NIV] 6 The LORD does whatever pleases him, in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all their depths. 7 He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth; he sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses. I love that passage from the Psalms. It brings a strange kind of calm to my soul. I know I share quite a bit about one of the storms that I am now encountering in my life. Parkinson's. I am honestly feeling my body and my mind losing ground at times, but I feel somehow sustained by the fierceness and the fury of this storm because it causes me to lift my wings of faith and rather than being blown about by these relentless and strong winds, I spread my wings of faith and use those very same winds to help me rise above the pain and suffering and see the beauty of the storm.  I see the beauty in the way my children help me find the humor and joy in this storm. I see beauty in the way my grandchildren take it in stride and argue about which one gets to hold my party hand - the one that tremors almost constantly. I see beauty in the way my wife cares for me even when I feel like I am a burden to her. I see beauty in the way people treat me with kindness and patience when they notice me tremoring or having a difficult time getting my words out. I see beauty knowing my God is walking through this storm with me. Heck, I find beauty in the fact that I still have the capacity to be creative and write and that my writing still sounds coherent and seems helpful to people.  I encourage you to take the time to watch a storm  as it passes over you and around you - from the safety of your home, of course - and look for God's handiwork. I honestly find storms to be amazing and beautiful. Why not live our lives with that sense of wonder? Why not look for something to be grateful for when we go through such storms? I guarantee you and are never alone - even in the most  devastating storms of life - and that does my soul good. Before I say goodbye for this week, I would humbly ask you to consider getting a copy of my brand new book titled Parkinson's & Recreation 2 - No Walk in the Parkinson's. I bare my soul in this book as to how I am dealing with Parkinson's and I believe it will encourage you whether you have Parkinson's or not. I really do. It's available in paperback, e-book, and audiobook. And if you wouldn't mind doing this for me: once you have read the book, would you consider going back to the place you purchased it online and leaving me a five star review? I have to share a couple of quick reviews from those it has already received reviews from on Amazon.com. GO writes: Inspirational and encouraging book. This is a wonderful uplifting book. I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed. CR writes: 5.0 out of 5 stars It is life stories and Jernigan history mixed with how they deal with Parkinsons. I have read both of these and love his sense of humor and steadfast faith in God's love no matter what happens. The second book recalls events from his life in the public eye, again remembering humorous episodes.” Please consider reading the book,Parkinson's & Recreation 2 - No Walk in the Parkinson's, and please consider telling others about it, if you don't mind. That would help me out tremendously. Thank you for tuning in to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast! For more about my journey, music, and updates, visit dennisjernigan.com.

My plan? To minister to the needs of others in spite of Parkinson's by continuing to trust in the Lord. Now, go and be who your heavenly Father says you are.
