Today could be the best day, of the rest of your life.

 This morning as in every morning there is someone in need. Whether they be lost and hurt and no where to turn, or a child of God who has lost their way through these streets we call life with all its crooks and turns. Friends, its not hard to do. Some grow up in very nurturing families and others don't. Yes it's hard but it's done, there are young people as well as adults who live their lives from behind a mask. Many will condemn someone who takes their life and even the thought, but folks have you walked in their shoes one step? We should pray before we condemn. Before you condemn someone just set back and think about it a while. Bad things happen to people from both sides of the tracks so to say. Whether you attended church or never stepped a foot inside. Its called the pressures of life.

 This morning there are people who need more than a pat on the back and for us to tell them everythings gonna be alright. Friends,lost ,lost loved ones as well as christians around the world, a pat on the back is not going to comfort someone who is in dire need. They need more, they truly need Jesus the one who gives a peace that passes all understanding. This morning and every morning let us go before the mercy seat of God and pour out our plea to the one who gave HIS life for you. This morning around the world abroad and here at home (America) sing and pray whether you are lost and suffering or you are a christian and hurting, let us start.

Chorus
 SWEEP OVER MY  SOUL, SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL,  SWEET  SPIRIT, SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL,  MY  REST WILL BE COMPLETE WHEN I  SIT AT HIS FEET. SWEET  SPIRIT SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL.

This morning  Lord, I (we,us,they) am in need of you, I am a sinner in which I am not proud. Lord I come before the throne of grace and mercy, Father, asking you to forgive me my sins, wash me white as snow let your blood flow through me. This is all I can say, I don't know you at all but today I take that (this) step, I need you in my life because "I'm at my wits end" I know no where else to turn.
  Dear Gracious Heavenly Father I was told that you know  the number of hairs on a person's head and that you know each person by name. Father if it be true, because this is so new to me. Please come into my life and set me free.
This morning the christian as well as the lost are hiding behind a mask.You smile when there is no true smile, you joke and kid around when there's no feelings too. The reason I can say that is because I have lived behind that mask of guilt and shame. After years of being told that I wouldn't amount to nothing, I was worthless, or why was I ever born, what other place is there to go. Then one day someone talked to me about Jesus and what He had done for their life and how when the Son sets you free, truly free, you are free indeed.


 SWEEP OVER MY  SOUL, SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL SWEET  SPIRIT, SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL. MY  REST WILL BE  COMPLETE WHEN I  SIT AT HIS FEET.  SWEET  SPIRIT SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL.

 This morning and today around the world if you can and if you want. Let us sing that chorus, and as we do let us together lay it all at Jesus's feet. Because to God you ARE worthy of God's love, To God you DO amount to something, And today you will know why you were born. Yes there is place and a reason you are here.

NASB - Jeremiah 29:11 --- 29:11  `For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, `plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.

KJV - 29:11  For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

As we sing the chorus one more time.

 SWEEP OVER MY  SOUL, SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL, SWEET  SPIRIT SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL.  MY  REST WILL BE COMPLETE WHEN I  SIT AT HIS FEET.  SWEET  SPIRIT SWEEP  OVER MY  SOUL.

As the choir sings the song, ARISE to your feet for you have a brand new life. It starts with believing.

If you feel something has changed in your life today, give GOD the glory. For you as well as millions of others have now opened up your life to a whole new meaning and a brighter day. Today the mask is removed you have become a Child of the Most God. Even though the roads ahead won't be easy, we can truly rest in knowing, you have a God that loves you unconditionally.  Not as the god of this world. HE will be with you every step of the way.

Folks sing it in all humbleness yet with pride for today your plate is set at the table.

In heaven they just received an invitation from a missionary in a distant land to accommodate a party of believers who just accepted God's salvation plan. Just as the angels say, "All is ready" God hears a cry from another man. There's been another birth into the kingdom And the head waiter hears one more command.

Set another place at the table, write another name on the role. Take out another robe, shine one more crown, another child is Heaven bound.  Add another verse to the chorus as the angels rehearse the welcome song. Set another place at the table for the rest of the family coming home.

If the invitation is not answered, it's engraved forever in HIS hand, I come to remind you of the honor to dine in the presence of this Man.

Set another place at the table, write another name on the role. Take out another robe, shine one more crown, another child is Heaven bound. Add another verse to the chorus, as the angels rehearse the welcome song. Set another place at the table, for the rest of the family coming home. Set another place at the table For the rest of the family coming home.

Today an invitation has been sent out to everyone, Christians, the Lost, Muslims, Jews, Buddist, Krishnas and all others leaving no one out. Come home.

May God bless

Will a man rob GOD

I know what a lot will think by just reading that text, and yes it does say in the Bible that if you do not pay tithes and bring offerings to the store house you are robbing GOD,  that His work can't be carried on. But robbing God goes a whole lot deeper that money. THERE  are just as many other ways of robbing God than that. I have often talked about my 22 years of preaching the Gospel, and I guess I need to pipe that down because that's not what I'm here to blog about tonight.
I found Jesus as my Lord when I was in my teens, even though being a teen with no support at home made it difficult to stay a Christian. So as things went I backslid for a few years but one thing that never left me was the feeling I had every service I did attend, (even though I was of the Baptist faith at the time), it was the feeling of chill's covering my arms and running down my back and over my body. It wasn't until a few years later that GOD would show me exactly what it was. I do not know if the Baptist have changed any at all, I haven't been back so I really can't say, but back then, you didn't raise your hands, you didn't praise the Lord, or even hear an amen as the preacher brought forth the word of GOD.
I guess they believe in the Spirit of GOD they just don't let it manifest itself as it did on the day of Pentecost. And I have been to a Catholic Church and I will not go into any details or say anything about them that might offend anyone, even though the Church world, or let me retract that and say most, think all Catholics are going to hell. Sorry folks not so, There will probably be more of them going into the Kingdom of God than any other denomination, but again this blog is about.
Will a man ROB GOD.
 Every morning when we awake to the precious breath of life we have something to be thankful for, because we could have been one of the thousands who didn't wake up at all. It wasn't until I begin to attend a Pentecostal- Full Gospel- Non Denominational Church that God revealed to me what all the chills were all about. Some call them the Holy Ghost bumps, I call them the Power of GOD. As I sat on the very last seat in the very last row, the preacher called a prayer line. I was feeling the bumps, and laughing within myself as people were slain in the Spirit, then a still quite voice within me said , "why are you laughing? Try it you might like it".  As I waited my turn in line with no prayer request, the preachers hand stopped about 6 inches from my head and whoosh, my feet left me and I hit the floor and my head hit the bench, and I felt not a thing. That is when I knew within myself that, MY GOD is real.
Will a man rob God.
Friends all through out the Bible in one place or the other we see where people did one thing and that was to give GOD the praise and honor He was owed. Today in Churches all around the United States it is hard to find one single church that will praise and worship God accordingly. King David, it says in Psalms, danced before the Lord a holy dance and the people sang praise to the most High GOD. Heck David says in the last 6 or 7 verses of Psalms to praise ye the Lord, Everything that hath breath praise ye the Lord, let the earth rejoice, trees sing, the mountains, birds, animals all praise God.
How about in Acts the 2nd chapter when they did what was told of them and gathered together in an upper room til they be subdued from on High. My Bible tells me that they were in one mind and accord. Brothers and sisters, there's a song that John Starnes sings that I believe tells the story about the day of Pentecost, "You never seen such SHOUTING going on"
Will a man rob GOD.
The Bible tells us that every time we enter into the Sanctuary of God, we shoud enter into His gates with thanksgiving in our hearts and enter His courts with praise. Friends, did you know that in heaven the angels sing praise and worship to GOD the Creator 24/7, continually? Did you know that the Bible says that if we hold our peace and not praise God that He would cause the Rocks and Stones to praise Him? You know the Church world wants something of GOD daily. And GOD being the truthful GOD He is, gives and gives and gives, then we as His so called children, ROB him over and over, again and again.
Will a man rob GOD?
Friends if you happen to read this and head to the house of worship this Friday night, Saturday or Sunday. REMEMBER you owe GOD. Now the question is will you continue to ROB GOD. You'll probably say well I don't feel nothing, remember this also folks, you get out of it what you put into it.

Will a man rob GOD.

Til next time
Shaloam and pray for the peace of jerusalem

With God all went well

Hello again friends, its me again the local Internet menace lol, I hope I'm not known as that. But again I have to give God the glory due Him this day. God gave us the opportunity once more to preach His word. It was great being in God's house once again and being under the annointing, it was glorious. After the shaking calmed down some, having not preaching for almost 9 years, the Holy Spirit did what He does best, Preach, again I have to say Glory to God in the highest.

God gave us the message to preach, "Let us enter his gates". Our text came from Psalms 100:4, let us enter His gates with thanksgiving in our hearts, enter His courts with praise, again I have to say God was and still is awesome. To some preachers, preaching to 45 people isn't such a big thing, but this little church used to have if I heard right close to one hundred and fifty members, then you know how it goes, like any other organization satan slips in and divides and destroys. its been a while since that has happened but only by the grace and mercy of God will this little Church heal and begin to grow again. 45 people ain't all bad in the world we live in today.

God let us begin our message in the book of Ezekiel 37:1-10. where God lead Ezekiel into a valley of dry bones, and in the spirit God shows him heaps of bones. God commanded Ezekiel to prophecy over the bones and as he did so God caused the bones to come to life, oh yes an exceedingly great army. Friends we are living in a time when not only is this world in trouble, but the Church world as we know it is in greater trouble. Jesus talked about a great falling away of the saints in the last days. We've been preached for over 200 years that we are living in the last days, and we would have to say that it is somewhat right, because there were and still are prophesies being fulfilled today. I believe today more than ever from the studying of Gods word and research of Biblical history, Bible scholars, and ancient world history, that the Church world has been deceived into thinking that a secret Rapture will occur, and that people have lost all hope in faith not only in Christianity, but God and His Son Jesus Christ.


I realize that the rapture means { caught away or called up } but where are you going to? heaven ( God forbid ) Friends the only time your going to go to heaven is if you were to die and go to the grave, and your spirit goes back to the Father. Jesus said no man has ascended to heaven to the Father except the one who came from the Father, the Son. Friends, Brothers and Sisters, I glory not in myself, that I preach and tell you the truth and the whole truth but God will require your blood on my hands if i don't tell you the truth. I'm trying to make it onto the 1000 year reign with Christ Jesus and take as many as we can by the Grace of God, on which the second death hath no power. I do not count myself to be a doom and gloom Preacher, God is just, fair, full of mercies upon all that will listen and hear what the spirit says.

There are so many misguided souls out there and my heart and soul cries out for them, My prayer would be and is, that people would once again turn back to God and seek his true word. not something men thought up back in 1824 and was never preached by Jesus or the Apostles. Friends, No where in the Bible (being the only true word of God we have to live by, which has never changed), does Jesus say He was going to rapture his people or church out of here before the great tribulation happens. People tend to preach and teach that even though Jesus himself said I will come as a thief, but He did not mean to mislead Christians he came to save them.

Jesus was only saying to His children TO WATCH AND BE AWARE OF WHAT IS GOING ON, THAT IT DOESN'T COME UPON UNAWARE, AS A THIEF coming in while no one is watching so will He return. Jesus used two great examples of how the world would be and what shape it would be in when he returned, As the days of Noah were before the flood Matthew 24; 37-39 But as the days of Noah was before the flood, so shall the coming of the Son be, [ 38 ] FOR IN THAT DAY BEFORE THE FLOOD THEY WERE EATING AND DRINKING, MARRYING, AND GIVING IN MARRIAGE,until the day noah entered the ark. [ 39 ] and knew not until the flood came and took it all away, so shall the coming of the Son of man be. we didn't give every verse disputing the theory, But we can.

If anyone can go into the word of God and show me where the theory of the Rapture is and pinpoint the sure word of the theory, I'll eat my Bible, it may take awhile because there's alot of food to eat in the Word of God. I'll even go as far as to say this, I'll put my Bible up against your man's theory and Gods words will never fail. We sorta got off our subject that we preached last night, but the Spirit of God that is within seems to get upset about millions of people being lead astray and mislead. And please dont take my word for it, and don't bother asking your pastor, ask the one who will never lie to you -ask God the Father to reveal the truth to you before its to late, Pleaseeeeeeee I do beg this of you friends,



But as we said we preached last night, on Let us enter his gates with thanksgiving in our hearts, friends, we need Jesus truly more now than ever. Friends, Brothers and Sisters. we need to go to the house were we can worship God in total fullness, with our whole hearts. we need to give him glory and praise ever day of the rest of our lives, before it's to late. so please consider the house of God that He places on your heart, and let the Holy Spirit move you in the worship of the Most High God. Serving God is only a small part of what we can do in return to Him who gave His Only Begotten Son, on a cross on Calvary.


well hope this make sense and will stir your hearts, not only to seek God's true Word, but also return back to Him while we may still find Him, and once you find Him, worship Him in praise and honour



TIL NEXT TIME may God bless you
