Good morning Hawaii and all points of the world, I praise God for us just being here this week and day. I praise God I am able to help so many people across the globe. We received a few letters of other ministries and churches wondering what has been going on and I do not believe where to start. I think you all know I have not written a sermon for two weeks and we all know the attack is on. Last week tells the whole story. Two computers go down on the same day at the same time is definitely the work of the devil. This whole suffering is the works of the evil one, but we know that as a man thinketh so he is. For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Prov. 23:7a. KJV It is good to be back and I just want to welcome back all of the congregation and the visitors and return visitors, I am sorry for all the other people I haven’t gotten back to, it has taken me all week to put this computer back the way it was and I am still having problems. But I will just pray to God we get through this Sunday and everyday for The Church Ministries. We are the only Bible Truth Christian Church so we are still set apart for the Kingdom of God with the bread of life and true worship and love of the Trinity. I miss you all , my weight has dropped to 125 with my clothes on so my brothers and sisters please pray for me, I need another specialist to see me, and do a check on this RSD/CRPS we need someone to tell me what I have so I can eat again and smile and be normal, I know the church/mission building is coming so I need to be healed so I am not all skin and bones and I need to have the strength to stand on my two feet for at lest an hour, and when things get going and the Holy Spirit takes hold of me there are going to me some real moving live sermons, people I know are going to be touched and healed, that is why there is so much attack on me now, sorry for boasting but I am boasting about the grace and glory of God and the miracle of healing and my testimony alone will shock the earth, so let us all Praise the Lord and praise our friend Jesus. We all thank you for attending this gathering of believers.
Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for loving us. Thank You for Your care and teaching, Father we want to praise and worship You this day. We love You; we want to thank You for everything You have given us. Lord You are the Rock of our salvation, You planned everything so Jesus could come and rescue us from the sin of Adam and death. How can we ever thank You and praise You enough, we gather together to give You the love from our hearts to You openly, and Your blessed Son and the Holy Spirit. Please anoint this gathering, please bless all of us. Please Lord, help us to praise You more and more, and show our appreciation even more. We are only Your children Father, please forgive us of our sins, please forgive any bad thoughts, and any unforgiveness in our hearts. We are here to worship You in spirit and in truth please Lord help us to be Your people. In Jesus Name, Amen
The medications that I have been given are supposed to work, and we know the reaction of myself is a total act of evil. Either that we have to look at it another way maybe God doesn’t want me to take such strong stuff. It is humanly impossible for me to take the new medications that just was given to me, and there is no reaction at all. That same medication I took should have knocked down an elephant, maybe not an elephant it might have knocked out a very large dog. No matter how many hours of prayer and fasting nothing is working. God has granted everything financially to keep me just above water, but here I suffer day in and day out the pain is so bad now I have just gotten used to it. And you know I praise God I am alive. As we break down Prov. 23.7 we all know many men and women use this scripture, but as you read it in other translations you find that it has been altered and the true meaning is totally changed. If you look up the scripture in the KJV it will speak as a man, for AS he thinketh in his heart so is he, Just like the opening statement . Now in the NIV for he is the kind of man who is always thinking about the cost. and the NLT "Eat and drink," they say, but they don't mean it. It talks nothing about a man’s heart. The meaning is taken out of context and the whole scripture in context talks about a man who offers you food and is thinking about the cost. He will offer you food and drink and he is a stingy man, or a man with an evil eye or selfish man and being he is offering you the food he does not want to give or offer it to you, so in his heart he does not care for you, so between traditions of men, everything is changed, the only truth we have is Christ or have this guy give up the food and drink he has! When I first looked up the scripture in the NIV you would think that you were in the wrong place. A scripture that has been used for so many centuries has been just taken away! But as a man thinketh, so he is. In the NASB it is close- For as he thinks within himself, so he is. And the NKJV-For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. So my brothers and sisters, the pain I have been suffering could be what I am thinking, but the evil one has placed this pain in my mouth for a reason beyond any medical understanding and I am being starved very slowly. I know I weigh 125 with my clothes on and we also know that stress in this life in reality can kill. Yesterday. Friday, I was walking back and forth from the doctor’s office to the pharmacy for a good long time just to exchange my medications, Logically speaking, we all know the battle field is in the mind. That is the only way Satan can toy and implant thoughts in the mind, with the doctor sending me to a special pain management doctor, I don’t need a pain management doctor I need someone to investigate this RSD/CRPS. And I need another specialist to diagnose that. I want to know what is causing this pain, and I need a treatment plan, and some way get a reline for my dentures and so they fit and I can start chewing again, because my jaw bone is disintegrating because I am not chewing, I need to be on one of these TV shows where all these doctors are crowded around and try to find out what is going on. Let us go back a few weeks and the medication was changed again and boy did I suffer and ended up with the same pills I had in the first place. When I had my hernia operation the pain medication was the same and my mind has been infiltrated again. I just now get another phone call, all day long the phone rings.I am sitting here with six bibles open, trying to write this sermon and I get a phone calls on top of phone calls and they just hang up, over and over then today on the church line time and time again, then this one guy that is trying to find St Ann’s Parish and he just keeps calling and leaving messages, and I tell this person that he has the wrong number, but he calls back again and again, I have to tell him again you have the wrong number. All day long, everyday, it is attack after attack and the point is the stress alone could give me, literally, a stroke. I really need prayer for healing. I need to calm down and eat properly to gain weight and then I could possibly regain my strength and get healthy again. All this is spiritual warefare and we know that I am trying to pray my heart out and I am living in a world of confusion but God is not a God of confusion but of peace,
For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. 1Cor.14:33 NKJV
For God is not a God of disorder but of peace. NIV
For God is not a God of disorder but of peace, as in all the other churches. NLT
Here again the scripture is changed again from confusion to disorder. We are talking about context again of orderly worship which knocks the meaning of the scripture out of its meaning talking about the order of church worship of prophecy of who will speak and who will not and in an orderly fashion.
As we have been faced again with more confusion, getting up every morning and rebuking spirits and oiling all the doorways, is getting somewhat ridiculous and it should be joyous to wake up, but my brothers and sisters here goes the phone calls, ringing and hanging up, just as I am speaking to you, I am waking up flinging the sword of the spirit, it is I have no peace, some days I have to get up and walk down the street, rebuking demonic strongholds, why is it always in the morning. People are supposed to wake up refreshed, not fighting spiritual warfare. I have constantly prayed for just one day of peace, with no pain, no worry, no fear, a simple plain day to look out at the view and sit on my porch like I always have and find serenity again. Let us continue to Luke Chapter 6
A good person produces good deeds from a good heart, and an evil person produces evil deeds from an evil heart. Whatever is in your heart determines what you say. Luke 6:45 NLT
In Christianity our speech with what we say or do comes from inside our hearts if Jesus Christ is living in our hearts what we say and do can be nothing of evil or confusion or worry or fear if we are in Christ , how can we speak anything different? Our faith and love and our attitudes and behavior come from a Christian’s heart, not from our mind, because our minds can be manipulated be evil.
I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world." John 16:33 NIV
"These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world." John 16:33 NASB
Christianity is a battlefield, right before Jesus went into his prayer in John 17, for his disciple’s believers and Himself, and we will find peace in Him.
Now let us all turn to the book of Proverbs for a lesson on the tongue
Death and life are in the power of the tongue,
And those who love it will eat its fruit. Prov. 18:21 NASB
He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction. Prov. 13:3 KJV
In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.Prov. 10:19 KJV
Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles. Prov. 21:23 NJV
He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.
There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.
The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight. Proverbs 12:17-22 KJV
Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction. Prov. 10:14
A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. Prov. 18:7 KJV
Dear brothers and sisters, not many of you should become teachers in the church, for we who teach will be judged by God with greater strictness. We all make many mistakes, but those who control their tongues can also control themselves in every other way. We can make a large horse turn around and go wherever we want by means of a small bit in its mouth. And a tiny rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot wants it to go, even though the winds are strong. So also, the tongue is a small thing, but what enormous damage it can do. A tiny spark can set a great forest on fire. And the tongue is a flame of fire. It is full of wickedness that can ruin your whole life. It can turn the entire course of your life into a blazing flame of destruction, for it is set on fire by hell itself. People can tame all kinds of animals and birds and reptiles and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is an uncontrollable evil, full of deadly poison. Sometimes it praises our Lord and Father, and sometimes it breaks out into curses against those who have been made in the image of God. And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right! Does a spring of water bubble out with both fresh water and bitter water? Can you pick olives from a fig tree or figs from a grapevine? No, and you can't draw fresh water from a salty pool. James 3:1-12 NLT
I really enjoy when scripture explains scripture. So my brothers and sisters, it is what we say can be our downfall or our helping and giving words of life and sharing the bread of life which we all need before we speak, we must look at all the angels of our ways we say things and how we say them, with different expressions with our body and attitude. We are to carry love and commitment to Christ and all brothers and sisters. That is why we have a thin line of our speech, we must watch each time we speak, even in the 28 lectures of Sigmund Freud, it goes into the way things can be said just by the volume of the way a person emphasizes particular word, or the slips of the tongue, can mean something totally different then what is said. We must always be filled with love and forgiveness and that is our purpose. We all are to speak always softly and clearly and with love and grace.
We Christians are to maintain carrying our cross not the gold or silver one we where around our necks. We need selflessness and a self sacrifice ruling heart. The divine work of grace must come from the heart, and then everything we say will follow. We have so much love in our hearts to give to others let us all team up with the grace of God that He has given us all. We must share so we can lead others to Christ. We all know that coming to Christ is a far more experience them just coming up to the front of the church and accepting the Lord or raising your hand to be prayed on. Or to have a group pray on you after you have said the sinners prayer, or just uniting with a church or filing out a decision card or piece of paper in the church program, some of these make no difference, many are traditions of men. It is how you feel in your heart, the touch of Christ when you welcome Him in to you. You then have started a relationship that should continue to grow day after day stronger and stronger. Our understanding must be changed in a supernatural affect, our stubbornness must be broken the thoughts of self should and the doors of life and love should be opened. This all is a miracle if we can obtain the miracle of the new rebirth, let no one say that Christianity has no miracles, the miracle of the new birth everyone believes, so why doesn’t anyone else believe in miracles, without the miracles of Christianity it would just be another religion. Nothing should stand in the new believer’s way of the sin of Adam which we all had before we excepted Christ. The attack of the evil one and all the disillusions brought upon by blind preachers at this time nothing should stand in the way of the new birth when the hour has come from God each of His choice of the elect.
For people can't come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them to me, and at the last day I will raise them from the dead. As it is written in the Scriptures,`They will all be taught by God.' Everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to me. John 6:45-46 NLT
We all have to drop off anything of the fleshy nature we are coming to Christ daily not just a one time thing, we must rely on Him for all things anytime we feel we need strength from Him, Jesus will help us. We must now lean on Him always to be as close to Him as we possibly can, all power has been given to Jesus.
Your attitude should be the same that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not demand and cling to his rights as God. He made himself nothing; he took the humble position of a slave and appeared in human form. And in human form he obediently humbled himself even further by dying a criminal's death on a cross. Because of this, God raised him up to the heights of heaven and gave him a name that is above every other name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Phil 2:5-11 NLT
So naturally we should go to Him for everything. When we need to be refilled we should call to Him.
We have all benefited from the rich blessings he brought to us--one gracious blessing after another. For the law was given through Moses; God's unfailing love and faithfulness came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God. But his only Son, who is himself God, is near to the Father's heart; he has told us about him. John 1:16-18 NLT
When we need wisdom we ask;
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. James 1:5-8
If we fall into sin we ask for forgiveness;
If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us. 1John 1:8-10 NASB
All that we need in this life is in Him all through eternity we call upon the name of the Lord.
For "Anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." Rom 10:13 NLT
As Jesus continued on toward Jerusalem, he reached the border between Galilee and Samaria. As he entered a village there, ten lepers stood at a distance, crying out, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!" He looked at them and said, "Go show yourselves to the priests." And as they went, their leprosy disappeared. One of them, when he saw that he was healed, came back to Jesus, shouting, "Praise God, I'm healed!" He fell face down on the ground at Jesus' feet, thanking him for what he had done. This man was a Samaritan. Jesus asked, "Didn't I heal ten men? Where are the other nine? Does only this foreigner return to give glory to God?" And Jesus said to the man, "Stand up and go. Your faith has made you well." Luke 17:11-19 NLT
We are never to take our Jesus for granted when we need healing or cleansing, and when we all need strength
Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary. Isa. 40:31 NASB
healing when we are sick
My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; Keep them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those who find them And health to all their body. Prov. 5:20-22 NASB
Then we should pray always about anything;
Are any among you suffering? They should keep on praying about it. And those who have reason to be thankful should continually sing praises to the Lord. Are any among you sick? They should call for the elders of the church and have them pray over them, anointing them with oil in the name of the Lord. And their prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make them well. And anyone who has committed sins will be forgiven. Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and wonderful results. Elijah was as human as we are, and yet when he prayed earnestly that no rain would fall, none fell for the next three and a half years! Then he prayed for rain, and down it poured. The grass turned green, and the crops began to grow again. James 5:13-18 NLT
when we need comfort;
So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and in his good time he will honor you. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about what happens to you. 1Pet 5:6-7 NLT
when you need direction in a troubled situation;
Be careful! Watch out for attacks from the Devil, your great enemy. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for some victim to devour. Take a firm stand against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your Christian brothers and sisters all over the world are going through the same kind of suffering you are. In his kindness God called you to his eternal glory by means of Jesus Christ. After you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation. All power is his forever and ever. Amen. 1Pet.5:8-11 NLT
when we need stability
For the grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people. And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures. We should live in this evil world with self-control, right conduct, and devotion to God, while we look forward to that wonderful event when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed. He gave his life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us his very own people, totally committed to doing what is right. You must teach these things and encourage your people to do them, correcting them when necessary. You have the authority to do this, so don't let anyone ignore you or disregard what you say. Tit. 2:11-15 NLT
when we get tempted
For since He Himself was tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted. Heb. 2:18 NASB
If you backslide or you get tricked or fall or become impatient.
My friends, be patient until the Lord returns. Think of farmers who wait patiently for the spring and summer rains to make their valuable crops grow. Be patient like those farmers and don't give up. The Lord will soon be here! Don't grumble about each other or you will be judged, and the judge is right outside the door. My friends, follow the example of the prophets who spoke for the Lord. They were patient, even when they had to suffer. In fact, we praise the ones who endured the most. You remember how patient Job was and how the Lord finally helped him. The Lord did this because he is so merciful and kind. My friends, above all else, don't take an oath. You must not swear by heaven or by earth or by anything else. "Yes" or "No" is all you need to say. If you say anything more, you will be condemned. James 5:7-12 CEV
As we talked in the beginning we came across so many confusing scriptures and then we feel into the talk of the tongue and how damaging it can be. Even if we speak to ourselves in forms of negativity we must remember not to even speak in that way. And we know all scripture has been changed into different translations and a certain altering has come about, in the US we have about 20 translations but we must remember;
[Yet] first [you must] understand this, that no prophecy of Scripture is [a matter] of any personal or private or special interpretation (loosening, solving).2Pet:1:20 AMP
We also must remember that Gods house is not a building but the group of believers themselves. In this we find Gods household we find it by being with other believers for fellowship. You see He lives in us, this way we show the world who God is through us that is why our representation of God is so important. We are the temple of God. You see people can see that God is love and Jesus is Lord through is. That is why no matter what we face attack or blessing we are to maintain the image and likeness of God, that is the least we can do, look at what God has done for us. So my brothers and sisters we have to show no inconsistency in the love of God. I, being on all these medications, has altered my thinking and I must apologize to the congregation to completely trust in the Lord and never even get hurt by all these pains and sorrows. O know in the end that if we endure to the end, we will glory with the Lord,
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 co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. Rom. 8:12-18 NIV
As my health grows more and dimmer, I know the Lord will save me God is in control of all things even the plots of the evil one.
We know that the bible speaks of Heavenly councils where God and the Angels plan particular ways of life on earth and in the Heavens and all Angels are required to check in to our awesome God. You see God has created all the Angels and He has completed power over all of them even the ones that have went with Satan and that is one third, which some of them are imprisoned. Whether they have rebelled or served God. Our God has complete power and authority over all Angels. It is good to know and our minds are all set at ease because even though we have and evil entity, that wants to get rid of Pastors, Chaplains, Evangelists and many others because they are preaching the word and helping others. It is good to know that our God and His Son which are one and we are one how can we fear anything especially when we also have the Spirit of God within us.
All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name—the name you gave me—so that they may be one as we are one. John 17:10-11 NIV
We have to remember that Satan in the beginning was just another Angel, and he became evil through pride, that is why God dislikes anyone with self pride and He loves all that are humble in heart.
Satan became evil since the rebellion against God. So we have a world of hatred and a battlefield, that is why we are not of the world, Jesus overcame the world, just as our faith will give us a victory over the world.
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
We are protected by God, especially when our walk of the world is to save souls, and give them victory over the world and to be apart of Gods household, because Satan is constantly at work to destroy and stop and steal, and kill the people of God. He is on the warpath to change peoples focus on God and other remnants or the elect through lies and deception, any person who is committed to God and working with God, the stronger the attacks from Satan and the closer the commitment the stronger the attacks will be, that is why some of us who love God and His people are under such heavy misfortunes. Let us all remember Satan is accountable to God, all Angels good or evil are compelled to present themselves before God. Satan can only be at one place at a time, so that is why he uses are the principalities powers and rulers of darkness to get his attacks done, and as all created beings they are limited. We also know Satan cannot see into our minds or know anything of the future. He must ask permission to do anything. We through prayer and our relationship with God can get us out of any attack. So this is why we stay as close to God we possibly can and praise and worship Him and His Son. We all should be constantly thankful to have a God that we can turn to at anytime. Just imagine the truth Jesus is living in us, deep in our hearts, the Son of God lives in us, we are eternally spiritually invincible. Now doesn’t that good news make everyone feel better? Now do you all understand how important it is to worship the mighty God of the universe who gave us such a gift. And look at what Christ had to go through to dwell inside us. I don’t know about you but I am forever grateful. Even I don’t thank and praise God enough how do you feel about our God? What do you want to tell Him?
Dear Lord, Thank-You for letting us all meet again. It has been a hard two weeks and I need to apologize to the congregation and the visitors that I did everything in my power to get a sermon up as soon as I could, please forgive me of my sickness, please pray for me this week, and I will pray for all of you. Please pray that the church stays together and that we all remain above sin. Please if the church has to move, please let us all have access to the world in a new church, I ask as the tears roll down my face, forgive me and anyone that doesn’t trust in You 100%, You are our life and breath, You are our all in all. Please bless everyone who joins this gathering or even just stops by to visit.
Dear Congregation, I have just been told we need to pray for one of our sisters, Theresa is over in Honolulu with her sister in the hospital and she is in ICU at the time in a coma, it started as a extraction of fluid out of her lungs and they turned out to be full of blood and Mona ended up going through heart surgery to repair two valves in her heart, please fellow visitors and people of the church please say a prayer for Theresa's sister Mona that she has a divine healing and comes out of the coma with a total healing of her heart and body, please Father assist this healing through the powerful Name of Jesus, Amen
