Good Morning everyone from Hawaii, and to every part of the world. As I sit again on my back this week for another week of such intense pain, I am still preaching I love you all and pray for you all. I have seen the prayers come in this week for me and I do thank you all. I also feel I saw the cloak of Jesus walking if front of me during prayer which helped me dearly fight the pain and the attacks. We are all here to preach the love of Christ and the advancement in our faith so we can please God. God needs to be believed and trusted totally before He will be pleased with us. I at times feel God is not very pleased with us, including myself, the world is hammering on our doorsteps and affecting our faith. We have to have pure faith in order to please Him. So we cannot be in the flesh, we have to climb out of our bodies of flesh and sin, so we ourselves can revolve in spirit realm. This way our spirit will connect. If God is spirit only our spirit can truly express the true love we have for God, as we pray we use Jesus Name to come boldly to the throne of grace, but when we shed all of our flesh, free will, and worldly sin and only our spirit remains, then we can have pure communication with God.
Dear Heavenly Father we are all here and I do not know how many and I do not know which and when by the different time zones that we are here, but we are here to worship you no matter what time or day it is. We are here to ring joy to you Father with worship, praise and prayer and it is just for you. There is so much going on all around everyone’s lives we still want to praise You Father, we want to thank you for everything your doing and everything you have planned for us. It is written in (John 4:18) that you will not let the evil one touch us and maybe we think at times evil is getting away with things, but we all know better. You are watching and guarding and doing all things for us and at times we do not know it or feel it and some of us do not notice, but we are here to tell you no matter what happens to us we all love You and when we think we are alone we are not, we have the Holy Spirit, we have angles and we have Jesus in our hearts. We pray for all those in hospitals, medical units and nursing homes that are suffering. We pray for all those with disease and loneliness. We pray for anyone that is part of this Church in which we want to follow your statues and Your guidance we do not want it to be commercial or worldly, we just want you Father to be a part of it. This Church is Jesus’ Bride this is a gathering for all people with no prejudice or any pride or disorder. We pray to You Father that it is an oasis a place where truth is the reality, and we only look toward others feelings and in their hearts plus the Heavenly realms of peace and tranquility. Please influence and refine our spirits, please do not let our sinful flesh control us. Please protect our minds from sin to think clear and of Heavenly things. Please anoint us all with the Holy Spirit, we need that warmth and the gentleness of a tear to know the Lord is present with us. Lord we love You and honor You. Please stop all spiritual warfare that comes upon us. Let the Spirit of the Lord control our minds, please let us all think and have the mind of Christ.
In Jesus Name, Amen
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the Spirit.
Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.
You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives in you.
Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation–but it is not to the sinful nature, to live according to it. For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs–heirs of God and coheirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. Romans 8:1-17 NIV
Well ladies and gentlemen I am sorry to say that we are all living on death row. I would day as soon as we are old enough to realize who we are and the understanding there is God and a Savior, this is about the time that we enter into the rest of the sinful world of understanding and of logic. When we are still are children we are innocent until we are old enough to want that first candy bar and ask our Mother and Father for it, we walk by the store and see a toy that we want and we ask our Mother and Father if we can have it. Yes we still are innocent children with no worries or fears or hardships if we were born healthy. Being young and innocent all we ever had to think about was waking up in the morning looking out the window and SEEING A SUNNY day, we were in pure happiness that we could go out and play and if there was a foot of snow on the ground, we would be thinking of snowmen, sledding, and snowball making. But there are many that are in cancer hospitals and other young children’s hospitals because of some affliction, or many wake up cold and hungry because their parents are trying to keep up with the outrageous bills. There are many ways children come into this world and their basic personality is formed from ages 1-6. Our personalities come mostly from our parents and if we really study the situation, your child’s personality could come from a day care person if they are around them often. Even today there are so many children growing up with one or no parents, maybe a relative. You may be born into a village with both your parents and the rest of the whole tribe or family having many close descendants right near by. No matter where you grow up or how you grow up as a child we are all born into sin. Adam and Eve’s big mistake that has placed all humanity in sin, of course we cannot be blamed for a sin we do not understand yet. That is why the age is very important about and our up brining our school, our village, town or city. So we will return back to the beginning. Without Christ, we are justly condemned and we are living repeatedly breaking Gods holy law. So we all have to have our children believe in our Lord Jesus or they have no hope of eternal life. Timing is everything with our young ones. I did not grow up into a Christian home; I grew up into a dysfunctional family. I knew God and I talked with Him ever since I was about FOUR YEARS OLD. I NEVER KNEW ABOUT THE FREEDOM and of sin and death until I was about twenty one and how God opened up my eyes to the fact that He has given us the free gift of salvation in Christ the Lord. (See my testimony) We then have the Holy Spirit who takes the reigns of our children and guides them into truth and holiness and the direction of the understanding of our freedom in Christ Jesus. He is the power behind the new birth of every Christian. He is the power to give us all that we need to live the Christian life As we all know the kingdom of God was established with the coming of Christ.
But the fact remains when Jesus returned back into Heaven, Gods Kingdom would remain through the Holy Spirit in each and everyone’s hearts. As we all know these facts we are all broken down in the early Church and believers are to spread the gospel to every living creature to all of the world. So here at the Church Ministries our purpose is to touch everyone hearts throughout the world. So to put it in plain language what the early church started we must still continue on. I have always kept this in my mind. We know that the future will bear witness when Christ returns and set forth this judgment to rid the world of all evil and establish the true Kingdom of God. You see none of these things could be done without the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a major importance of the trinity. If Jesus stayed on the earth he could only be at set places of the world to enhance the spread of the gospels. Bur now, Jesus had to return to the Father and by leaving us the Holy Spirit on earth this way a price of God could be locked into every believers heart here on earth and also give us guidance comfort, direction, fruits, to give everyone remembrance of the Saviors words, and teachings with supernatural power and when needed Christians to speak the words from coming directly from the awesome Trinity so the Spirit would give you the Divine words of what to say, and to carry the divine grace of the early church onward and continue with the great commission.
We have to firmly realize that the Holy Spirit is active in each mans heart giving off supernatural and divine power. The Holy Spirit gives us insight strength movement, excitement, and growth and courage to accomplish any work for God. It is almost like all three of the trinity are with us at all times giving us everything we need to fulfill the realm of supernatural Christianity. That is why I keep saying Christianity is just not another religion or denomination IT IS THE MOST POWERFUL GIFT and faith and belief known to man. So when you have faith any believer can have the Holy Spirit’s power, and accomplish anything through Christ.
During the forty days after his crucifixion, he appeared to the apostles from time to time and proved to them in many ways that he was actually alive. On these occasions he talked to them about the Kingdom of God. In one of these meetings as he was eating a meal with them, he told them, "Do not leave Jerusalem until the Father sends you what he promised. Remember, I have told you about this before. John baptized with water, but in just a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit." Acts 1:3-6 NLT
Since we have been united with him in his death, we will also be raised as he was. Our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin. And since we died with Christ, we know we will also share his new life. We are sure of this because Christ rose from the dead, and he will never die again. Death no longer has any power over him. He died once to defeat sin, and now he lives for the glory of God. So you should consider yourselves dead to sin and able to live for the glory of God through Christ Jesus. Rom. 6:5-11 NIV
But that isn't what you were taught when you learned about Christ. Since you have heard all about him and have learned the truth that is in Jesus, throw off your old evil nature and your former way of life, which is rotten through and through, full of lust and deception. Instead, there must be a spiritual renewal of your thoughts and attitudes. You must display a new nature because you are a new person, created in God's likeness--righteous, holy, and true. Eph. 4:20-24 NLT
Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits at God's right hand in the place of honor and power. Let heaven fill your thoughts. Do not think only about things down here on earth. For you died when Christ died, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God. And when Christ, who is your real life, is revealed to the whole world, you will share in all his glory.
So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual sin, impurity, lust, and shameful desires. Don't be greedy for the good things of this life, for that is idolatry. God's terrible anger will come upon those who do such things. You used to do them when your life was still part of this world. But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and dirty language. Don't lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old evil nature and all its wicked deeds. In its place you have clothed yourselves with a brand-new nature that is continually being renewed as you learn more and more about Christ, who created this new nature within you. In this new life, it doesn't matter if you are a Jew or a Gentile, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbaric, uncivilized, slave, or free. Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us.
Since God chose you to be the holy people whom he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. You must make allowance for each other's faults and forgive the person who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. And the most important piece of clothing you must wear is love. Love is what binds us all together in perfect harmony. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are all called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Col. 3:3-15 NLT
We know that Jesus gave himself up once and for all our sins. We know in the OT that In Lev. 17:11 we know that blood made the atonement for sin covering. But when we breakdown the past of the sinner and the way the blood represented. We can look at it in several ways the blood from these animals would represent the life of the sinner, heading for death. We also have to look at the innocence of the animal covered up the sin of the sinner; the thing is the blood is only a covering or atonement. So the death of this innocent animal also fulfilled penalty of death. So the blood of any of these animals in the law could not remove sin.
The law could classify judgment on sin but the law could not do anything about the sin in plain form. The law just did not have the power to put sin to death in a person’s life. You see God can up with the ultimate plan and do what the law could not do, by sending his own son totally pure, without sin, but in the similar flesh. So Jesus came to Earth took on the nature of us. The same nature that was open to temptation, but we all know that Jesus could not be tempted and to tell you Jesus was tempted many times and in so many ways, that is one of the reasons that we love Jesus so much and He stands out to us All so much he went and was tortured, lied to, spit upon, condemned by his own people, whipped many times, and crucified for us all and went through more pain then any man I have ever known in history and never uttered one bad word, never had one bad thing to say. He never gave in and never sinned and even forgave them all on top of it, There is and know one else like our Jesus, the same yesterday today and forever.
Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” John 3:5-8 NIV
As I sit long ways and lie here I know perfect love casts out fear John 5:18-19. It is written the whole world lies in the power of the evil one and it is also written if we are born of God technically through the Holy Spirits guidance and direction we cannot sin as long as we listen to the guidance of The Holy Spirit and that faint whisper of the God talking to us. I was in a prophetic conference and we were to all yell “I Love You Jesus” and sit and listen and then the leader said what did you hear? I sat there and heard Jesus say I Love You Too. And He did add the too, so I know Jesus Loves me and I heard Him and so many others did too. John 5:4 So I say again, whatever is born of God overcomes the world and this is our victory that has overcome the world, our faith.
We know that no one who is born of God sins; but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him. 1John 5:18 We know that we are of God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. 1John 5:19 NASB
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.
Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? 1John 5:4-5 NASB
Our faith is the most important thing to us without faith we cannot please God.
And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. Heb. 11:6
So we believe in Jesus. I know I do. I am truly sorry that I am a suffering pastor hit by all angels. I know I am being tested for some great work and it may be small or it may be large. I am being on my back most of the time. I am alone, it is so hard to even type on the computer. I am helpless at this time, my prayers end up in tears, I am hit with every financial situation and I am just a hurt preacher, but I cannot give up! I am to shepherd this flock no matter what I am up against.
Therefore, I exhort the elders among you, as your fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed, shepherd the flock of God among you, exercising oversight not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness; nor yet as lording it over those allotted to your charge, but proving to be examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory. 1Pet. 5:1-4 NASB
I have done all I can do, my heart is broken. I pray for a miracle, the news about my brain and the news on what I have together to be diagnosed is all so much. Father, please be with me and take care of all the people no matter how I feel what attack I am facing I must press on. Phil 3:14 and in the end the Lord will reward me through all of this suffering. I wanted always to help others but I am up against all kind of odds and pain.
I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Phil 3:14 NASB
There is an old story I have heard several times in and out of the churches that many years ago there was a large Christian tent service in the Midwest and only one small boy came to the front and wanted to be saved. As the story goes out of this large crowd of people only one person came to the front, a small boy, his name was Billy Graham.
