A Christmas Message – What God Has Done For Us MESSAGE SUMMARY: The people in and around Jesus' birth were just ordinary people like us. In our celebration of Jesus' birth on this Christmas, we celebrate the event that transformed world history and many of our lives. The birth of Jesus was a supernatural birth and was God's intervention into the Universe's natural order. This birth was foretold hundreds of years before Jesus' birth, and these prophesies were written and recorded, for us, in the Bible. Jesus' birth was the birth, of a child, that did for the human race what the human race could not do for itself. Jesus was born for all people. This baby, Jesus, was born to be a Savior for all humankind. The birth of Jesus was the birth of God as both human and divine – the Incarnation, as the Angels told the Shepherds on the first Christmas Eve in Luke 2:9-11: “And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. And the angel said to them, ‘Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.'". In Isaiah 53:4-6, Jesus, birth, death, and Resurrection, as our means for our Salvation, were foretold more than five-hundred years before Jesus birth: “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.". God, through His Grace, gave of Himself what we could not do for ourselves, thereby, providing, through the birth of Jesus, us with the means for our Salvation from our sins and for our Eternal Life. This Gift of and by God is what Christmas and Christianity are all about.  Is Jesus your Savior? God has given you the greatest Christmas gift that you will ever receive. Have you accepted His Gift and opened His gift into your life? If not, then why not? With your hands open, you can accept God's Christmas gift by saying: “I am sorry; thank you; and please”.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him! (Luke 11:13).

"Life is currency,." Time, energy, and experiences are valuable commodities. Everything we do with our lives has a cost or an investment associated with it. Every decision, action, and moment is equivalent to spending currency—what we give our attention to, what we invest in, and how we prioritize our time shapes our life's value. Closing song:  This Gift of Life by Teddy Pendergrass.www.BibleDeliverance.org

This weekend our Christmas series called THE GIFT culminates in our Christmas Eve services. Our grand finale for this series is Christmas Eve when we celebrate the coming of Jesus. He came in humility and with little recognition. The world was unaware that God himself was coming to live among us on that quiet night in Bethlehem. Born of a virgin by the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus, the gift, came to change our world forever. This Gift would usher in a new era, a new covenant between God and man. This gift, who was God himself, would come bringing a new birth, he would come full of gracious truth, and ultimately he would come to take our sin away. And so on this Christmas Eve we learn the significance of this gift and what we must do to receive the gift. Jesus, makes the offer of a relationship, a connection with our Father in heaven. We can walk with the God who created us. We can lose that feeling of being alone or isolated, the eerie sense that there is more to this life. Something is missing but what is it? Jesus said that what was missing in our lives was the forgiveness needed to be the children of God we were created to be. We have a Father in Heaven and we were made in his image. Join us for one of our Christmas Eve services as we discover the gift that was given to the world 2000 years ago. On a quiet night so many years ago our world was changed forever when the God who made us, came to dwell among us. For Scripture, notes, upcoming events, & more: http://bible.com/events/48996764

Daily Lectionary: 1 Samuel 4:1-22; Acts 16:23-40Then he brought them out and said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" And they said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household." (Acts 16:30-31)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. The jailer thought he had failed in his duty. As a Roman jailer,  your life was over if your prisoners escaped while in your custody. This man was about to kill himself for his failure when Paul cried out to him. What a sweet message those words of Paul were to a man lost and without hope! This sinner realized that Paul and his companions were proclaiming a message of life and hope to those who were as good as dead. The cry of "What must I do to be saved?" is a cry that all who have been killed by the Law utter. For the Law always leads us to despair of ourselves, to see the gravity of our sins, and to look for help. At this point, when we are dead in sin, the Gospel can come and save us. "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ." The proclamation of the Gospel to the jailer and his family immediately led to Baptism. This man and his whole family received the washing and rebirth that comes to all sinners, regardless of age, when the Word of God is connected to simple water. This water is transformed into a life-giving water that gives faith and life to all who receive it. The Gift that was given that day to the jailer is also given to you. While you are dead in your sins, God calls you by name. He washes you. He makes you alive. He forgives all your sins. He makes you holy. This Gift you receive because of Jesus and the sacrifice that He offered on the Cross through His innocent suffering and death for your sins. Because Jesus has risen from the dead, you also will rise and live with Him in heaven. Rejoice in that gift and believe that the words and promises of God are for you, not just today, but every day of your life. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Dear Lord, awaken us that we may be prepared to receive your Son with joy when he comes and to serve him with a pure heart. Graciously hurry the coming of that day. Bless and prepare us with wisdom and strength that in the meantime we may walk wisely and uprightly. May we joyfully wait for the coming of your dear Son and so depart from this valley of sorrow. Amen. (Luther' s Prayers, ed. Herbert F. Brokering. Augsburg Fortress, p.106) -Rev. William K. Stottlemyer is pastor of St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Hancock, MD.Audio Reflections Speaker: Rev. Duane BamschChristians need to aspire to being people of THE faith.

Today's Reading: John 14:15-21Daily Lectionary: Numbers 20:22-21:9; Luke 20:45-21:19 "Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him." (John 14:21)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Do you love Jesus? It seems like a silly question to ask a Christian, and yet it was just asked of you. How is it that you love Jesus? Was it something you decided to do one day? Did you will your love for Jesus into existence? Clearly those seem to be unlikely answers. Your love of Jesus, your love for God, did not and could not come from you. Such a love came about because of a Gift that you received, the Gift of faith. This Gift was given to you by the Holy Spirit. Jesus prepares us for that time when He will no longer be among us in the flesh. As upsetting to the disciples as that might have been, that day was drawing ever closer. But Jesus promised that the disciples would not be left alone. You, too, have received that promise, for Jesus has sent the Holy Spirit to you. He comes to give to us the Gift of faith which believes all that God has said and done. By faith, you have to come to know love, true love shown by God to us sinners. It is this love which led Him to send Jesus into creation, to make Jesus our sacrificial Lamb. God has made you known to Him, but more importantly, God has made Himself known to you. He has done so by giving you a name, one that is more important than any other name: child of God. That makes God your Father, and because God is your Father, He desires to give you the greatest Gift in all of creation, and that is the forgiveness of all of your sins. No greater Gift can be given than that, for it is by forgiveness that you are received into the kingdom of God. All that God desires to give you is yours because you have been made a part of Him. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Almighty and ever-living God, You fulfilled Your promise by sending the gift of the Holy Spirit to unite disciples of all nations in the cross and resurrection of Your Son, Jesus Christ. By the preaching of the Gospel spread this gift to the ends of the earth; through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

Duane BamschOver eight sessions, The Messiah: Revealing Jesus in the Old Testament will lead you through the entirety of the Old Testament with daily readings, questions, and discussion prompts. After a brief introduction that reviews Christ's earthly ministry, you will dive into the heart of the Holy Books that have spiritually nourished God's people from creation to today!

A NEW ORDER notes When God created the Universe he began with an order of material being or existence, and then created human life with a much higher order of life with moral responsibility for relationships and loving responses. We are going to look a the ongoing work of God in the reordering of that relational order of our lives to bring us closer and closer to him. We start with God as Uncreated Being creating the material universe in the presence of his already created angelic spirit beings. The material universe was an order of created being which reflected his creative genius of design in observable Laws, such as the laws of mathematics and physics and chemistry, and the observable beauty of light and colour and the harmony of movement and sound and the forms of life and energy and growth. All of these laws and forms of the new order of created being were created out of emptiness and darkness and chaos and disorder.  Genesis 1:1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters and God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. A new order – a new Law of life When God created humanity, the being that was to reflect the image of his own nature and being, he recreated within that being his own order of life of love and trust. The first of these beings, Adam, broke the law of love and trust when he was deceived into a mistrust of God by another created spirit being, Lucifer, who had desecrated that law of love and trust through the darkness of his pride and deception.  A new order – a new Law of life (and death) Adam had allowed darkness into the being of humanity and a new order of human life came into being – the law of sin and death. Adam was no longer innocent, and his disobedience estranged him from the life of God - separation and death entered humanity from that time on. Nevertheless, God gave humanity a conscience concerning good and evil which was not perfect because it was self-centred, but people could still choose to honour God. Many offered sacrifices to God out of a good heart like Abel, while many others became corrupt and lived selfishly for themselves like Cain.  A new order – a good conscience toward God. Then came the time of Noah, and darkness had established a firm foothold in the human heart. God saw that the heart of mankind had become corrupt and the whole earth was filled with violence and estrangement from God. God observed all this corruption in the world and he said to Noah, who had a good conscience towards God “I have decided to destroy all living creatures, for they have filled the earth with violence. Yes, I will wipe them all out along with the earth! God told Noah he would send a flood to cover the whole earth (Genesis 6:11) and he told Noah to build an ark, and God saved Noah and his family from the flood. After the rains and the flood had subsided Noah was told to send out a dove, representing God's Spirit to fly freely out over the earth as a sign of the new order of humanity being given a fresh start. From the time of Noah a new order of mankind that descended from Noah began to live in the order of a good conscience toward God which guided them within the integrity of their own hearts.  A new order – a new Law of life (the Law of Moses) Then God told a man called Abraham that he would become the father of the Hebrew nation. And through Abraham there came forth the twelve tribes of Israel and they lived in the new order of God's wisdom through the Law of Moses which was a new and higher order than the human conscience alone. They became the light of God and his Word in the midst of the darkness in the nations round about them.  Once again, the order of darkness began to demand its place to rule in the midst of this new nation and they became like the nations around them. The order of darkness took the form of their wanting to be ruled by an earthly king rather than by God, because all the other ungodly nations were ruled by kings. The prophet Samuel spoke to God with a heavy heart about what the people had demanded, and God said to him ‘I am the one they are rejecting, not you—they don't want me to be their king any longer. Ever since I brought them from Egypt they have continually forsaken me and followed other gods. (1Samuel 8:5). So Samuel told the people what the Lord had said. ‘You will shed bitter tears because of this king you are demanding, but the Lord will not help you.”  ‘Even so, we still want a king,' they said, ‘for we want to be like the nations around us.' The attack of darkness upon the hearts of God's people has now become set in the desire to want to be like the nations around them. After the death of King Solomon two distinct kingdoms were established. The kingdom of the ten northern tribes settled in Samaria and the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin settled in Jerusalem in the south. The northern kingdom afterwards made ungodly alliances with the other nations and fell into idolatry and were finally dispersed and mysteriously disappeared even though there were anointed prophets in both these kingdoms who faithfully set God's Word and purpose before them and called them to repentance.  Jeremiah was the prophet to the southern kingdom of Judah and Benjamin, and he became grieved about their corruption and idolatry under their mostly, ungodly kings. God told Jeremiah that because of their disobedience they would go into captivity in Babylon, but at the same time he tells Jeremiah to buy a plot of land from his cousin in Ananoth near Jerusalem. Jeremiah is perplexed by this directive from God that seems like a contradiction of purpose, but then he realizes that he is not just doing a favour for his cousin, but that this purchase signifies that the land transaction is a symbol of the promised return of Israel one day back to their land. Jeremiah understands God's plan and promise, and he designates his trusted scribe Baruch to settle the sale and keep the deeds in safety.  A recurring theme of God's reordering Jeremiah 45:1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke: “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch (blessed one): … Behold, what I have built I am breaking down, and what I have planted I am plucking up—that is, the whole land. And seek not great things for yourself, for I am bringing affliction upon all flesh, says the LORD. But I will give you life as a gift in all places that you may go.” Baruch (whose name means ‘blessed one') was protected and blessed with life. The southern kingdom was taken into Babylon and after seventy years they returned to Jerusalem and inherited all the land, but some years later darkness again prevailed and there was another falling away. God's people received no more prophetic comfort or guidance for over four hundred years from the time of their final prophet Malachi until the time of John the Baptist who prepared the way for the Messiah Jesus. Before that southern kingdom went into captivity God also promised a new order of life called The New Covenant (The Law of God's wisdom written upon the heart - Jeremiah 31:31) that would be ordained upon God's people at a future time. A new order – a new Law of life (The Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus) God created that new order of life promised to Jeremiah in the incarnation of God in the person of Jesus Christ. God and humanity joining together in one Spirit, the greatest order of life for humanity to experience in the earth. This Gift of the Father, The Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus through his Son Jesus, who put to death the old order of life, The Law of sin and death when Jesus died on the cross, then rose from the dead and ascended into heaven, bringing us into that new order of the Spirit of Life through the presence of the Holy Spirit within us. Jesus sowed his life into death and reaped new life in resurrection so that we could inherit this new order of life in the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus.  Our global society has become so disordered in recent times that we seem to be seeing the replay of the theme that we saw in God's word through Jeremiah to Baruch ‘Behold, what I have built I am breaking down, and what I have planted I am plucking up—that is, the whole land. And seek not great things for yourself, for I am bringing affliction upon all flesh, says the LORD. But I will give you life as a gift in all places that you may go. In the days in which we live there is the breaking down of things that God has built, and there is the pulling up of things he has planted. We are seeing the breaking down of once reliable democratic systems of government based on Godly morals, and the pulling up of deeply rooted traditions in a new cultural order that replaces the Godly foundations with shallow ideologies of special interest groups that are pitched one against the other. This causes disdain and resentment from zealots to be aimed against people who don't always agree with the new order virtues or ideologies. Their demand often is. 'We want to do as we please and we would like a law framed for us to have the freedom to do it, and the power to punish anyone who wants to stop us or attempts to criticise us. We are also seeing violence and human suffering in the violent aggression of Russia against Ukraine and against the values of the freedom of western democracy.  We also see personal affliction everywhere and the disruption of health and safety and the pressure on financial systems caused by the global pandemic and natural disasters like fires and floods. This is the time to pray for God's reordering of his Kingdom values to challenge today's disordered culture and bring his order of life once more into this world. God also wants to restore the order of his new Law of life in his Church and is saying to the Church to ‘seek not great things for yourself ‘. He has had to tear down and pluck up what may have become worldly and superficial practices in the Church in recent times concerning celebrity leadership styles and the love of money. God says to us as he did to Baruch (the blessed one) I will give you life as a gift in all places that you may go. We receive his life that we may give it to his world, wherever we may go. Paul writes about this experience of being given a new order of life and he shares it with all who desire to live with a true heart of a good conscience towards God. An order of life is a Law of life because it means to regulate how that life is lived to its highest order, so as I read the following Scripture from Romans Chapter 7 I am going to be using the word ‘order of life' in the context of a ' law of life'. Romans 7:21 I delight in the law of God (order of God's wisdom), in my inner being, but I see in my members (outer being) another law (order of life) waging war against the law (order of life) of my mind (in the knowledge of God) and making me captive to the law (order of life) of sin (independent self-interest) that dwells in my members (outer being). Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death (sense of miserable estrangement from God)? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself (my inner being joined with God's Being) serve the law of God (order of God's wisdom) with my mind (in the knowledge of God), but with my flesh (outer being) I serve the law (order if life) of sin (independent self-interest)…but there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus for the Law of the Spirit of life has set me free from the Law of sin and death… Contending for the new order of life The Law of sin and death still resides in our mortal being and it contends with the Spirit of Life in Christ in our spiritual being at every turn in our lives as darkness seeks to extinguish that light and that life, but it can be overcome by our faith because the Holy Spirit is always awakening us to the ongoing mission of God for mankind in the earth, which is for us to be transformed into the image and likeness of God in Jesus Christ. Our faith in God's divine action upon the human heart and mind by the Holy Spirit empowers us with his grace to reorder the reasoning of our minds and to love mercy and to release his wisdom and justice into our personal world.  The Holy Spirit will empower us to make commitments and to control our actions and enable us to fulfill God's will for our lives.

The Faction Election War Won (8) (Audio) Reversal of Fortunes David Eells - 12/23/20 Remember Eve had a dream on 12/7/20 that she was avoiding a factious witch, a body, who was slandering her at every opportunity, which is true in the natural….  I heard a deep voice behind me say, “there are 14 days left to get cleaned up!” (There is still a little time left to redeem the times.  Seems to me, in the dream, the countdown started the morning of Dec. 7th  when I had this dream.  That would put the last day at Dec. 21/22nd. Representing a separation and division. This could also have some parallel political meaning to it since the numbers were blue and red.) (Eve, as a type of the Bride's “separation and division" from the factious witch through judgment which we as Christians should be sanctified to escape.) We didnt know it but Vanessa already had a revelation on 11/29/20, which she sent me (not knowing of Eve’s dream), that: "God is good, God is good, all the time". I knew that something was to happen on Dec. 18th and I did not know if it would be good, bad or what. I was thinking in the dream that Dec.18 is three days before the start of Winter which is the 21st. (And Jesus said winter was great tribulation. Is a great tribulation coming after December 21st? As we will see, what precedes this on the 18th could bring a tribulation but one which will bring down enemies, which is God’s goodness to his people.) So these independent revelations of a future event pointed to the same time confirming this as a sign of what is to come. Amazingly these two sisters got the same revelations from the Lord of the meaning of all of this. Vanessa said, As I was praying about this the Lord said, “Go to Psa 18:1-6.  It is the story of Factious witchcraft Saul and his men who had been chasing David but were killed by the Philistine beast as David “was delivered out of the hand of all of his enemies”. Then She got Luke 24:1-7, Which is the empty tomb as the Man-child Jesus had resurrected as a type for our day. I.E. Sauls work is done. the crucifixion of the Man-child is accomplished. and Saul was destroyed like Judas as the Man-child enters resurrection life. From the 18th to the 21st is three days to Resurrection of the Man-child Jesus born in the Man-child at the sign of His Star on the 21st? I believe this is a sign of what is about to come. Eve got for her revelation the same thing Psa 35:11-26, The factious slanderers chasing David but he called unto the Lord who destroyed his enemies. Then she got Lam 4:11-22, in which the Lord sanctified Zion of apostates who were guilty of blood, they who chased the righteous were scattered, the sins of Edom were revealed to all because they hated their chosen brother, Israel, as a type of the church. Edom  was judged and Zion was delivered.   18th; Sign of Reversal of Fortunes David Eells - 12-23-20  I wasn't searching for any confirmations of the timing of Dec 18th through the 22nd but I certainly ran into one. I never watch these videos.  I usually look for text so I can scan more quickly for major changes coming.  But I was led to watch the V-Guerilla interview with Juan O’Savin, who more and more insiders are saying is JFK Jr.  His knowledge of things comes from very close to the President like years ago when they were friends before the plane crash, which could well have been staged to save him from the DS. I heard him point out that Dec 18th is the start of it all. He then pointed out that this date is 11-3 on the lunar Chinese calendar, which is a famous date with the globalist DS. And that stated another way was 11 11-11.  This was the start and end of WW1, the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.  It began with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, whose license plate was 11-11-11. Juan said 11-11 represents war and 11-11-11 (12-18) the beginning of war. He called this Dec 18th “Huge” and "Amazing” and “the flip day”.  Some things he said made me think he was speaking of flipping a timeline. Like: "We will have to wait a few days to see if everything flipped.” He spoke somewhere in this interview that both sides had the Project Looking Glass technology, which we know is a look into the future. (God’s methods given to us are “a more sure word of prophecy”.)  So I thought, “They are going to flip a timeline that is advantageous to the DS to one that is advantageous to us.” He also said basically, there could be some confusion during this time but dont worry, all will be fine. I can imagine that changing a timeline would cause some confusion.   I remembered a Bible Code that said, “5 ways, 5 paths” or something very close to that.  At the time I believed the Bible Code covers all of these paths that our disobedience or obedience to God could bring us down.  The future is fluid but according to the Word of God.  We may know a future thing by dream, vision, prophecy, word of knowledge, word of wisdom, or discernment of the Word. But these can be changed by repentance, faith, or cry for mercy as the Word shows. Juan spoke of the futility of using the Justice Department to bring down the vote fraud saying the Justice side is captured.  I think this means it is captured in a negative future time line.  He went on to say, “it can only be done on the military side" mentioning “Gitmo”.  He said, "We had to wait till this point in time” (18th) when speaking of the vote fraud problem. He also said, “On April fools day the fools will not be in office”.  We have correctly called them the stupid demons.    The Christmas Gift  Desert Prophet Ken Dewey (Those of you who know us understand that we know that Christmas is an invention of apostate Christianity and merchants but God speaks to people using what they understand.  He like Paul is “weak to the weak” so some can be saved.) This morning I hear that THE FATHER HAS A GIFT FOR HIS PEOPLE THIS YEAR….  This is what I hear: "Even as I did send my Son to be born and He was and IS MY GIFT TO MEN TO BE SAVED...  So now I will AGAIN SEND A GIFT. This Gift will come in the form of FINALLY FINDING OUT WHO WON THE ELECTIONS IN AMERICA.  (We know who won the election by a landslide.  The factious leftists dont know.  But Marie got a revelation that an elderly woman she knew, who didnt like P. Trump, came and told her that he won the vote. This could be that the revelation of who really won will be given to the leftists, some of whom will still make war against the Christians and lose to the Bride.) BY CHRISTMAS NEWS WILL BE COMING OUT IN FAVOR OF PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP TO REMAIN AS PRESIDENT.   THIS IS MY CHRISTMAS GIFT TO YOU, MY PEOPLE. Note: The Supreme Court must move and speak to the undeniable claims of Election Fraud which does and will effect the "Constitution as written, making it a very real Constitutional issue.”       Out Of The Ashes They Will Rise This morning moments ago, THE LORD DID BEGIN TO SPEAK. We were looking at the plans many have to march today in Washington, DC, when He did begin to speak. HE SAID: “OUT OF THE ASHES THEY WILL RISE FROM THE RUINS OF RELIGION BACK TO FAITH IN ME. The election is the catalist my People are rising by the droves. They will shine like Stars in the Night. Beacons for Me. That is what it is about … MY GLORY! Raise your hands and WORSHIP the time has come, FOR THE WALLS TO FALL. A birthing of Faith is coming forth like never before, that has not been seen. Watch Me Work in the midst of it all. RISE PEOPLE OF GOD, ALL IS NOT LOST! THE BEST IS YET TO COME! IT IS TIME TO COME TOGETHER FOR ONE PURPOSE… MY GLORY! THE WALLS WILL FALL FLAT, AND THEY WILL NOT RISE AGAIN. The defeat of the establishment is AT HAND. I AM ENTHRONED ON THE PRAISES OF MY PEOPLE. Your allegiance My People, look to Me, I AM YOUR DELIVERER. NO ONE ELSE. THE WALLS WILL FALL AND THEY WILL FALL HARD. I HAVE SPOKEN IT, THIS IS MY WORD. YESHUA / JESUS CHRIST xxx

Deborah CoxDeborah Cox (born July 13, 1974) is a Canadian singer, songwriter, actress, and record producer. Born and raised in Toronto, Cox began performing on television commercials at age 12, and entered various talent shows in her teenage years before becoming a professional backing vocalist for Celine Dion. In 1994, she relocated to the United States and was signed to Arista Records by Clive Davis, releasing her self-titled debut album the following year. Her second studio album One Wish (1998) was certified platinum in the United States and was marked by the commercial success of the pop crossover single "Nobody's Supposed to Be Here", which would become Cox's most successful entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number two and remaining there for eight consecutive weeks. Cox signed with J Records for her third studio album The Morning After (2002), which saw moderate commercial success.Cox ventured into acting in the 2000s, making her film debut in the Canadian drama film Love Come Down (2000) and her stage debut in 2004, in the title role in the Broadway musical Aida. She has since appeared in smaller films and several musical productions, including the horror-drama Jekyll & Hyde, the biographical musical Josephine and the musical adaptation of The Bodyguard. Cox's most recent studio albums, Destination Moon (2007) and The Promise (2008), have been released through her own independent record label, Deco Recording Group. In 2017, her single "Let the World Be Ours Tonight" became her 13th number-one hit on Billboard's Dance Club Songs over the span of three consecutive decades.[1] In 2016, Billboard listed Cox at 23rd on its list of the Greatest of All Time Top Dance Club Artists.[2] An eight-time Juno Award nominee, she has won four awards and is often cited as Canada's top R&B artist.[3] Deborah Cox was born in Toronto to parents of Afro-Guyanese descent, grew up in Scarborough, Toronto and attended John XXIII Catholic Elementary School and Earl Haig Secondary School.[3] She began singing on TV commercials at age 12, and entered various talent shows including an appearance on Tiny Talent Time.[4] She performed in nightclubs as a teenager, and began to write music around the same time.[5] Cox entered the music industry in the early 1990s, performing as a backup vocalist for Celine Dion for six months.[3][6] After receiving many rejection letters from Canadian record labels that claimed their "quota" had been reached, Cox moved to Los Angeles in 1994 with producer and songwriting partner, Lascelles Stephens.[3][6]Career[edit]1995–1999: Debut and One Wish[edit]In 1995, label executive Clive Davis signed Cox to Arista Records. Featuring production from Dallas Austin, Keith Crouch, Tim & Bob, and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, she released her self-titled debut album the same year. A middling commercial and critical success, the album peaked at number 102 on US Billboard 200 but emegered as a steady seller, eventually receiving a gold certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), while going platinum in Canada. Lead single "Sentimental" entered the top five on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, while follow-up "Who Do U Love" attained worldwide success, becoming a top twenty success in Australia, New Zealand and the US, also reaching the top of Billboard's Dance Club Songs.[7] In 1996, Deborah Cox won Cox a Juno Award for Best R&B/Soul Recording at the annual award ceremony and earned her a Best Soul/R&B New Artist nomination at the 1996 American Music Awards.Cox contributed the non-album song "Things Just Ain't The Same" to the soundtrack to the 1997 film Money Talks. A dance remix of the song, produced by Hex Hector, became her second number-one hit on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart and was included on her second album, 1998's One Wish. As with her self-titled debut album, her sophomore effort was once again executive-produced by Davis, but featured more uptempo, contemporary R&B, and a slew of new producers and personnel to incorporate dance and club music, including Montell Jordan, Anthony "Shep" Crawford, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, and DJ Quik. One Wish peaked at number 72 on the Billboard 200 and earned a platinum certification from the RIAA, while reaching gold status in Canada. The album capitalized on the crossover success of lead single "Nobody's Supposed to Be Here" which became Cox's most successful entry on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number two, and remaining there for eight consecutive weeks, making it one of the longest stays at number two in chart history. The song also reached number one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, spending a then record-breaking 14 weeks at number one, while the third single "We Can't Be Friends," a duet with R. L. Huggar, reached the top ten, with "It's Over Now" and "I Never Knew" become chart-toppers on the Dance Club Songs chart.2000–2005: The Morning After and acting career[edit]After One Wish, Cox collaborated with singer Whitney Houston on her single "Same Script, Different Cast" from the compilation album Whitney: The Greatest Hits. Incorporating a backing track of Ludwig van Beethoven's "Für Elise" during the intro, it was released as a radio-only promo single and became a minor hit on Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 70 while reaching number 14 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. In 2000, Cox made her acting debut when she starred in Clement Virgo's Canadian drama film Love Come Down, playing a nightclub singer. The film garnered eight nominations at the 21st Genie Awards, including two Best Original Song nominations for Cox's songs "29" and "Our Love". In 2001, Cox then recorded "Absolutely Not", for the soundtrack to Dr. Dolittle 2 which became her sixth number one hit on Billboard's Dance Club Songs.Cox's third album The Morning After was released in November 2002 on J Records following a frustratingly long departure from Arista. It marked the Cox's first record under Clive Davis's label, with Davis, once more serving as executive producer.[8] Keen to build on the success of her previous album One Wish, he enlisted the help of producers such as Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Jermaine Dupri, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, and Shep Crawford as well as up-and-coming producers Warryn Campbell, Johntá Austin and Alex Richbourg to work with Cox. A blend of urban R&B and adult contemporary songs with additional dance/house tracks, it became her highest-charting album on the US Billboard 200 and Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums yet, debuting and peaking at number 38 and number seven, respectively. Commercially, the album was less successful than her previous album, however, though it produced two singles on the US Dance Club Songs chart, including "Mr. Lonely" and "Play Your Part".[8]In February 2004, Cox made her Broadway debut in the Elton John-Tim Rice musical Aida when she replaced singer Michelle Williams in her role of the Nubian princess. Her four-month engagement earned largely positive reviews.[9] The same year, she recorded and released a dance remix of the musical's theme song "Easy As Life" as a promotional single.[10] In 2005, Cox starred in the films Blood of a Champion and Love on Layaway. Also that year, her voice was featured in the movie Hotel Rwanda in the song "Nobody Cares". To sustain demand for Cox's club appearances, while focused on her family and new album projects, she released a dance single titled "House Is Not a Home" on Nervous Records in January 2006. Later in the year, her song "Definition of Love" was used in the movie Akeelah and the Bee, but was not released as a single.2006–2009: Destination Moon and The Promise[edit]Between 2005 and 2006 Deborah recorded her fourth album, called Destination Moon, arranged and produced by Rob Mounsey. A tribute album to jazz singer Dinah Washington, Cox noted it a concept album that she had in mind for years.[11] Most of the album was recorded live with a forty-piece orchestra with Rob Mounsey arranging. Eventually released by Decca Records in June 2017, Destination Moon peaked at number three on the Billboard Top Jazz Albums. The same year, Cox co-starred alongside Golden Brooks and Darius McCrary in Leslie Small's film A Good Man is Hard to Find.

In this sermon, Pastor Nathan discusses the most profound gift God has given to us; His very self. This Gift brings unity in the midst of great diversity.

 Macomb Twp. Chiropractic Chiropractors Chris McNeil and Franklin Norton are doing a fund raiser this year to benefit a local Macomb County Charity.  For the toy and clothing drive Macomb Township Chiropractic is putting on this holiday season, the office is collecting donations of toys, dollars and clothing to be donated to Turning Point.   Turning Point is a local non-profit charity whose mission is to provide programs and resources that enable victims and survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault to regain control of their lives.  Hundreds of woman and children are left homeless due to domestic violence and Turning Point is a place where they can go for food, clothing shelter and support.  “There are hundreds of kids that are homeless who will not have a Christmas this year because of domestic violence. That’s why we and are doing a toy and clothing drive to benefit Turning Point, “said Chris McNeil Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractor in Macomb County MI. In return for a donation of dollars, toys and cloths the Macomb Township Chiropractic clinic will be giving out a FREE gift. This “Gift of Health” includes a consultation, nerve assessment and full set of postural chiropractic x-rays for only $49. “This is a huge discount off the normal price of these initial chiropractic services, which could be up to $300 or more,” says Dr. Frank. Dr. Norton also stated the cost of the initial examination and x-rays is often a barrier to people coming into the chiropractic office to get evaluated to see if chiropractic care can help many people with the health issues.  “This way we can give back to the community in more ways than one,” said Dr. Frank.” If you are a resident of Macomb County and were thinking about checking out chiropractic care this could be your chance to not only see if chiropractic care can help you, but also help Macomb Township Chiropractic in their fund raising efforts. You can visit Macomb Township Chiropractic by clicking here on the Macomb Township Chiropractic Google Maps  link or call 586-566-2273 for more info or to schedule an appointment and donate to Turning Point.      

REASON #1: RecognitionOn the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Samaria and Galilee. And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” When he saw them he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; and he fell on his face at Jesus' feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. Then Jesus answered, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?”If I do not recognize the mighty things God has done to bless me, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #2:  For My FoundationFor by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God.”  (Ephesians 6:8 ESV)If I do not recognize the grace that has allowed me to enter my relationship with God, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #3:  For My New Start“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” (2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV)I have been given the freedom to start a new life. If I received the gift of this freedom and yet still live in darkness, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #4: For the Gift of God's Word“How can a young person live a clean life? By carefully reading the map of your Word. I'm single-minded in pursuit of you; don't let me miss the road signs you've posted. I've banked your promises in the vault of my heart so I won't sin myself bankrupt.” (Psalms 119: 9-11 MSG)God carefully gave His Word over several centuries and through several writers so that I can be led in the right way. If I do not embrace what He did for me by seeking His wisdom from His Word, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #5: For the Gift of Life“For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.  I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” (Psalms 139:13 ESV)The passage above is one of the best esteem-builders known. Just think of it. I have been literally formed by Almighty God. He blended all of my cells, molecules, chromosomes, personality traits, talents and all aspects of my life while I was still in my mother's womb. Do I really believe that I am wonderfully made? Do I thank God for my life? If I do not am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #6: For the Gift of Wisdom“Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.” (1 Corinthians 2:12 ESV)As I look back on life, do I see a special time that I was able to understand something of great importance, and I didn't know how I could? It was not my norm. It came from nowhere. But it didn't come from nowhere. It came from the Lover of my soul who wants to teach me how to use His wisdom instead the limited wisdom of the world. If I do not seek His wisdom and obey it when I find it, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #7: For the Gift of Peace“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6-7 ESV)Peace is a gift, but will I accept this gift from God? Peace is also a “fruit of the Spirit.” But will I allow His Spirit to speak peace into my heart and mind? If I will, then I will experience a peace that surpasses all understanding. If I will not trust Jesus with what I am struggling with even though He has told me that He will take my burden, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #8: For the Gift of LaughterA cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person's strength. (Proverbs 17:22 NLT)Laughter is good medicine, but laughter must be a fruit of a “cheerful heart.” What does that mean? My heartis described as my emotional center. It is really what I believe and hope for. It is my deepest love, and my deepest feelings. If I do not have this cheer in my heart, is it because I do not believe it, or I do believe it but will not receive what is offered? If I will not receive that which has been granted to me, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #9: For the Gift of Significant People“I thank my God every time I remember you.” (Philippians 1:3 NIV)A wise person becomes wise through their experiences and the experience of others. We don't just become wise without some help. The Lord provides such experiences and people in our life to instruct us, and to form us. If I do not recognize these significant people in my life and thank God for them, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #10:  For the Gift of Parents or Guardians“Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. (Exodus 20:12 ESV)Does the honor of my parents or guardians only fall on them if they deserve it? Do I see any condition attached to God's commandment that exempts me from honoring these people? I am simply told to just, “DO IT!” If I will not obey my Heavenly Daddy who tells me to do this, do I really appreciate His perfect love for me? If I withhold giving honor to my parents for any reason, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #11: For the Gift of My Church“So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers,” (Ephesians 4:11 NIV)Do I thank God for my church, my pastor, and our leaders? Are they ministering to me God's word accurately and shepherding me as they should? If they are this way, am I grateful enough to thank God for them?  If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #12:  For the Gift of God's Friendship“No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.”  John 15:15 ESVWhat does it mean to be a friend of Jesus? More importantly what does it mean to have Jesus as my friend? If I do not tell Him how much I appreciate His friendship, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #13: For the Gift of DisciplineMy dear child, don't shrug off God's discipline, but don't be crushed by it either. It's the child he loves that he disciplines; the child he embraces, he also corrects. (Hebrews 12:6 MSG)When it comes down to it, God is preparing me for something better when He disciplines me. That is enough of a reason to thank Him isn't it? Will I take a step of faith in my prayers right now and thank Him for what is going on even if I am hurting from His discipline? If I will not, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #14: For the Gift of TrialsCount it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (James 1:2-4 ESV)God uses trials in my life to produce steadfastness in me, which also perfects me. It is His process of development. Do I thank Him for His process, even though it may include trials? If not, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #15: For the Gift of the Crown of LifeBlessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.  (James 1:12 ESV)God keeps His promises. He is true to His word. Do I thank Him for the crown of life He has promised to me? If I do not, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #16: For the Gift of LIGHTEvery good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. (James 1:17 ESV)Jesus is the “light” to the world. He gives us light in darkness. Light causes darkness to flee. Do I thank God for the many times He has shed light on my path and directed my steps? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #17: For the Gift of ProtectionEven when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me. (Psalms 23:4 NLT)I have been given God's protection from many difficulties that are known and unknown by me. The assurance of God's presence in my life has given me comfort. Do I thank Him only during an apparent threat, or will I thank Him even though I do see a threat coming? If I do not recognize His protection of preventing things that could hurt me, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #18: For the Gift of God's ShepherdingThe LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. (Psalms 23:1 ESV)God watches over me! What a promise. What a benefit. What comfort. Do I believe this? Do I rely on this? Do I find my comfort in His sovereign oversight of my life? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #19:  For the Gift of God's Complete ForgivenessAs far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. (Psalms 103:12 ESV)Do I retain any thought that God has not forgiven me of sins that I've repented of? If so, I am probably listening to the Accuser's voice rather than the One who I sinned against. God's voice tells me that I am totally and completely washed of my sins and He will remember them no more. Do I thank Him for His complete forgiveness of me? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #20: For the Gift of My FoundationThough the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won't collapse because it is built on bedrock. (Matthew 7:25 NLT)Jesus is my foundation, and no storm in life will take Him out from beneath me. Do I recognize Him as my constant and complete bedrock that He builds my life on? If I do not, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?REASON #21: For the Gift of being a Good Shepherd“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. (John 10:14-15 NIV)There are good and bad shepherds and the sheep know the difference. However, the sheep of the good shepherd may take it for granted for they know nothing else. Jesus is my Good Shepherd. Do I take this for granted? Do I forget to recognize how good He is to me? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #22: For the Gift of a Full LifeThe thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. (John 10:10 NIV)Jesus restored that which was lost. What was lost? Mankind lost the intimate fellowship that we once had with our Creator when sin came into the world. But Jesus restored it. Do I thank Him for this restoration? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #23: For Heaven's Treasures that Await Me“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.  But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.  For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.(Matthew 6:19-21 ESV)Am I storing up treasures in heaven? If so, they await me. Now is the time to store up. Do I thank God for Heaven's Bank that keeps my treasure safe? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #24: For All These ThingsBut seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. (Matthew 6:33 NIV)What did Jesus mean when He said, “all these things?” He meant all things that I worry about or am concerned about for living my life. He said all those things are taken care of by my Father in Heaven. If I worry and stew over things that I think I need but do not have, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #25: For God's Tender care of MeWhen you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. (NIV) Proverbs 3:24Do I thank God for His watch over my life? Do I sleep a sweet sleep because of His care? Do I thank Him for it? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #26: For God's Steadfast LoveLet your steadfast love come to me, O LORD, your salvation according to your promise;  (Psalms 119:41 ESV)I don't use the word steadfast much. What does it mean? It means “resolutely or dutifully firm and unwavering.” God is all those things to me. He is resolved. He is always on duty. He is firm and unwavering in His love for me. Do I thank Him for this faithful characteristic of His? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #27 For God as My Hope and My TrustFor you, O Lord, are my hope, my trust, O LORD, from my youth. (Psalms 71:5 ESV)What can I trust or put my hope in that will never fail me? Nothing is this world can provide such hope … even the best people or the best investments or the best governments. Only the Sovereign King of the Universe can provide complete trust and hope for me. Do I take the time to thank Him for this hope and trust that He provides me? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #28:  For Knowing All the Details of My LifeBut even the hairs of your head are all numbered. (Matthew 10:30 ESV)God knows, He cares, He is willing, and He is able to take care of me, for He knows all the details (in detail) that concern my life. Nothing escapes His attention. Do I recognize this about Him and thank Him for it? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #29:  For My Daily BreadGive us this day our daily bread, (Matthew 6:11 ESV)Have I ever missed being given my “daily bread?” Has not Father proven to me over and over that He is faithful? Do I complain that I want more, or that I want to store it up, so I will not fear? Is my real reason being that I don't trust Him on this level? Am I not content to eat from my Father's hand the diet He wants me to have? If this is true, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #30: For My JobMake it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before. (1 Thessalonians 4:11 NLT)Sure, I might not like my job. But am I exempt from doing my work as unto the Lord? My job provides resources for living, and my Sovereign God uses my difficulties in it to grow my faith in Him and reshape me. If He wants me out He will change my job. Until then I think He wants to change me to accept my present situation as coming from Him. If I will not thank Him for my job and praise Him during my stay in it, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #31:  For Answered Prayers“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. (Matthew 7:7 ESV)I might not realize it, but God answers all my prayers. How so? “Yes – No – Wait – Something else instead,” are His ways of answering prayers. But He answers them when I pray and ask of Him. It might not be what I want at the time. But He answers them all. Will I thank Him for all my answered prayers even if they fall in a list that I think are unanswered? If I will not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #32:  For His purpose for Answered PrayerUntil now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. (John 16:24 ESV)Do I understand that Jesus wants me to ask of Him anything I think I need? But does He have a greater purpose with His answer than I realize? It is not for me to just get what I want, but rather what He thinks I need. Do I see in the promise He made that His purpose for answered prayer is to give me JOY? If I will not thank Him for the unknown answer before I am granted a clear understanding of His answer, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #33: For the Future HarvestSo let's not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don't give up. (Galatians 6:9 NLT)A farmer understands that he must sow to reap. There are things beyond his control such as the weather and other things. But he must do his part and can celebrate that he did his part until the harvest, and then it will be a big celebration. However, it begins with sowing. Am I weary of doing good because I see no return from my work? Maybe it is because I need to have faith that it will come.  I did my part and God will do His part? Am I not willing to celebrate the harvest that He will bring even though I do see it now? If not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #34: For His Plans for MeFor I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. (Jeremiah 29:11 ESV)God has a plan for all His children. Will I believe this for my life, or do I doubt that He is involved with my life. Do I think He either doesn't care, or He is too busy for me? If I think this, there is no scriptural basis to believe it. In fact, to believe this is contrary to what God's Word promises me. It is the belief of those who do not even know God. Will I believe Him and His promises to me only if I see proof of it? If I do this, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #35: For Being the Bride of ChristAs a young man marries a young woman, so will your Builder marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you. (Isaiah 62:5 NIV)Male or female, as a member of the Church, I am a “bride” of Christ. As a “Bride of Christ,” He promises to rejoice over me. I may not understand how this relates to me. But I understand what it means to rejoice over something or someone. Do I rejoice about my relationship with Jesus? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #36:  For Jesus' Return“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” (John 14:3 NIV)Do I look forward to Christ's return to claim me? If I did, would it will help me to not take this life as serious as I do? Maybe most of my conflicts come because I put too much importance on this temporary life? Do I put more importance on this life than the one Jesus has prepared for me? If so, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #37: For My Heavenly Home“ My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?” (John 14:2 NIV)What kind of house or setting can I secure for myself in this life that would ever match what Christ has been building for me the last two thousand years? Do I thank Him for the work He is doing even now to prepare for my arrival? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #38: For Making the WAY Known to Me“You know the way to the place where I am going.” (John 14:4 NIV)Before she received her name, the Church was known as “The Way.” Jesus made it clear that He is The Way. He is the way to God. He is the only way to God. He is the way, the truth, and the life. Do I thank Him for helping me know that He is the Way? If not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #39: For the HOLY SPIRITAnd I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. (John 14:16-17 ESV)I have received a tremendous gift because I trusted Jesus with my soul. This Gift is God's Spirit who lives within me. Do I fail to recognize Him? Do I fail to thank Him? Do I fail to listen to His still, small voice? If I do not, am I also one who does not come back to thank Him?REASON #40: For My National Leaders and Country“Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity.” (1 Timothy 2:2 NLT)There is a great benefit for praying for our nation's leaders, whether I support their party, their positions, or even dislike them. I have no greater reason than the instruction scripture gives to me to do so. I might be asked to pray for godless, angry people who detest my prayerful concern for them. I might be asked to pray for leaders who are fervent about their disbelief of God and who feel my prayers are a product of ignorance and superstition. Though they see themselves as enlightened intellectuals, the truth is they are ignorant of God and His love. They need my prayers above all, for their souls need Him, and my country needs them. All my national leaders need to help create peace within our boundaries by joining hands with each other and work for a common cause. Our country and its leaders need my prayers. Have I thanked God for my country and our leaders and have I been sincerely interested in asking God to bless all of them?  If I have not, am I also one who does not return to thank Him?THANK YOU…For joining us in prayer these past 40 days, offering our Lord the thanks that He is due.  With your grateful spirit, may you enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday and may you let your thankfulness pour out on your family and friends and other spheres of influence.

Sermon #3 – Dec 17th, 2017  THE GIFT INTRO:                                    Let’s unwrap this Gift and see what’s inside MSG:                                                1. LOVE – THE LOVE OF GOD……. John 3:16-17 16 “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. 17 God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.   Brought the LIGHT to the world for HE IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD……. John 1:5 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it. John 8:12 12 Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” Psalm 27:1 1 The Lord is my light and my salvation— so why should I be afraid? The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble? Ephesians 5:14 14 for the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said, “Awake, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will give you light.”  John 12:3535 Jesus replied, “My light will shine for you just a little longer. Walk in the light while you can, so the darkness will not overtake you. Those who walk in the darkness cannot see where they are going. 36 Put your trust in the light while there is still time; then you will become children of the light.” After saying these things, Jesus went away and was hidden from them. The Unbelief of the People 37 But despite all the miraculous signs Jesus had done, most of the people still did not believe in him. So That Everyone Can Have Eternal LIFE John 1:4 4 The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. CONCL: What will you do with This Gift...

That is, a group of people to whom you are responsible—to God and to them―for supplying the Bread of Life. If you have been called to the office of prophet, this information will help you to monitor, minister and manage effectively so as to position yourself for optimum stewardship of God's gift in your life. Does it not stand to reason that the enemy of this select group does not want you communicating lasers of light―missiles of ministry―for the immediate healing and guidance of the select group to which you are responsible? This select group needs to know: Where they're at ... Where they're going ... What's happening today ... What's happening in the future __________________________________________________ PROPHECY AND STEWARDSHIPWHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW~ A MIRACLE PODCAST PRODUCTION ~ WHY PROPHECY IS IMPORTANT A prophet must monitor what's going on in his or her area of assignment. If the area of assignment is international, then the observation, of course, is international and encompasses geopolitical happenings. It is not always possible to know such information in the natural―even with the internet and social media―but it can be known supernaturally to those whom God chooses to reveal such happenings. This will include what is happening NOW … and what will happen in the FUTURE. A prophet must be in a state of readiness at all times: ready to hear … ready to question … ready to speak. Habakkuk lived in a period when his country had fallen from the heights to the depths with degradation in the legal system of the land. Remind yourself that this happened after Josiah's reforms. How quickly we are to go from boom to panic. Governments―because they are made up of people―can be bipolar as well. This reminds me of a poem I shared as part of my speech when graduating from engineering college and I was awarded the trophy for being the “Most Worthless Senior.” (Five years later, the Lord Jesus, Israel's Messiah, made me worthy―He became my worthiness―when I received Him as my Savior and Lord.) “Our system is depressive manic. It runs from boom and then to panic. In view of this it would be wise for government to stabilize. Knowing the need for both … stability and economic growth. And that constant, steady unemployment can often be a disappointment.” I'm not sure, but I think that was from J. Sullivan Edwards' book, Ride the Wild Horses. MONITOR Habakkuk is overtaken by the circumstances all around him. He thinks God has removed Himself from the affairs of man. Leaders are in control who do not serve God. The prophet says: “I will stand upon my watch, and position myself upon the tower, and will watch to see what God will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.”  ‒ Habakkuk 2:1 Let me ask you a question: “Are you standing upon YOUR watch?” Are you listening to what the LORD will say? Today―more than ever―people need a word from God. Yes, they need to be IN God's Word (reading and meditating), and they need the Word to be IN them … but they also need to hear specific rhemas―personal messages from God to them―directed by the Spirit of God in the timing of God. The man I respected most for always having a word from God for people was a man named Dick Mills. He was an humble servant of God. He gave me in the course of his lifetime several prophetic messages―including Words of Knowledge from the Holy Bible―that were “spot on” and everyone of them came to pass. He prophesied to me and told me that I would have a ministry like his which came to pass. We must monitor by knowing―keeping in touch―with what's going on around us. But more importantly we must monitor by “standing upon our watch” and waiting upon God to speak―to see what He will say to us―about the nation and for the nation … about people and for the people. MINISTER To minister is to serve. Just recently, a lady I have never met, contacted me by email. This lady had read my book, Prophecy, Transition & Miracles. She told me, “The Lord told me to tell you 'Keep your shoes clean.'” Now I know it must have been hard for this lady to say this. As a matter of fact she told me later she was afraid to tell me as it might offend me. What she did NOT know is that recently I purchased a new pair of inexpensive shoes to wear with khakis or Levis. I always try to keep my shoes shined and clean. However, a day or so before this lady sent the message to me I was looking at my new shoes and thinking, “I should clean them.” But … I decided to put it off. Well, when I received the lady's message (and knowing she didn't know anything about me or my new shoes) I decided to clean them. Wouldn't you know … the very next day I was in a very important meeting where the shoes were very visible and it was very important that they be perfectly clean. That may seem trifle but … it was IMPORTANT. And, it shows the importance of personal prophecy: NOT “kookie” stuff, but exact “laser directed” words from God that many times only the Lord knows what it is about. Personal ministry with “lasers of light” pinpointing in exactness the message from God for the people to whom you minister: those in your watch care or area of assignment. Daily, remember to ask God for discernment over people, things and situations. Not all that glitters is gold … and not all prophecies that come to YOU are from God. I have “tons” of prophecies that have been given to me through the years, but I have hung them on the wall “so to speak” until I either knew in my heart―or received valid confirmation―that they were from God. Just as we want to receive accurate words from God, so we have the responsibility to deliver accurate words to others in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. MANAGE Habakkuk managed his activities so that he had time―he took time―to wait upon God. He positioned himself―by schedule and activity―to watch and see what God would say to Him. The answer he received from God has helped people for over 2,500 years. A prophet must realize that he or she―even if delivering a message to one person―may be influencing nations and future generations. By God's grace, I have spoken words that launched people into powerful ministries that multiply further because of the right message at the right time. YOU are an instrument of God. Guard this privilege with all your might. Manage your time, your resources and even your recreation so that your assignment from God―the people assigned to your watch care―do not suffer. A shepherd tends to the flock by feeding, healing, guiding and protecting. But … the shepherd must stay strong himself to be in condition. Your body is NOT your own … you have been bought with a price: with the precious BLOOD of Messiah Jesus. Therefore, glorify God in your body … and that includes the mental part as well. It's the anointing that breaks the yoke. The Holy Spirit is God's agent on earth to supply the resurrection POWER of Christ. Honor the Holy spirit and He will honor you. Habakkuk received the message from God that made it possible for him to rise above the circumstances. It was this: “Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.” ‒ Habakkuk 2:4 Much of the misunderstanding concerning prophecy has to do with the lack of understanding the historicity of prophecy (the time frame in which the prophecy was delivered) and the purpose of prophecy. We need to understand the different elements of prophecy and their functions, such as: Predictive prophecy. Office of the prophet. Gift of prophecy. PREDICTIVE PROPHECY Prophecies of old revealed in the Tanakh (the Hebrew Scriptures) may be categorized in two sections: "fulfilled" and "yet to be fulfilled." The former need no defense: their fulfillment in detail is proof of their validity.  Analysis of current geopolitical events and relationships seem to "escort" many of the remaining unfulfilled prophecies. It is here that quantum physics and the office of the prophet MAY become synergistic at times. You may study in detail about this here: Faith and Quantum Physics. OFFICE OF THE PROPHET The office of prophet and seer are generally synonymous; however, what most people—especially theologians—don't realize is that God is more than willing to SHOW His servants the road ahead. The Holy Spirit will guide you into ALL truth: spiritual, economic, relational and political truth. God many times will give a prophet a “feeling” or a vision that is panoramic and unfolding for cycles or events. For full teaching on this subject, go to "Prophets and Seers" where you can both read and listen by podcast. The purpose of this podcast-teaching is two-fold: 1. To describe HOW the ministry of the seer operates; and, 2. To warn you of Satan's tools. GIFT OF PROPHECY The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is NOT the same as Baptism into the Body of Messiah. All followers of Jesus have the Holy Spirit (the Ruach HaKodesh); However, NOT all of His followers have the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. This Gift of Power is PROMISED to you. Plus ... the GIFTS of the Holy Spirit. I have covered this completely ... and in detail in my book, How To Receive God's Power with Gifts of the Spirit. This book shows you HOW to receive the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. You will learn what the Gifts of the Spirit are … and … HOW to OPERATE in the Gifts of the Spirit. There are many attributes of―and advantages to―the Gifts of the Holy Spirit operating in your life: in areas such as relationships, ministry, business, and personal. You will learn these in this book. But, especially, you will learn how the Gift of Prophecy operates through the believer in Jesus. The Gifts of the Holy Spirit (including tongues) have NOT ceased since the time of the Early Messianic Community. If God's People ever needed assistance by the Holy Spirit―and MIRACLE working power―it is NOW. As you prayerfully read this book, you can experience NEW power and productivity for the End Times.

There’s lots of confusion and even ridicule concerning this precious Gift of Holy Spirit. This should not be so. This Gift is clearly outlined in the Bible.There is only one subject in all of Scripture that has an entire chapter devoted exclusively to it. That is the subject of Tongues. The entire fourteenth chapter of First Corinthians teaches on no other subject but the speaking with Tongues. If this subject is that important to our Holy God, no one should ever oppose it for any reason. Those who do, find themselves opposing Almighty God. This is an important message for Christians in today's world.
