A special message from the Lord

August 2, 2019 by

TRANSCRIPT:

Message: I saw a father, and he had his hand out, and he was holding the hand of his child. As he walked along all of a sudden that child pulled its hand away. It wanted to go its own way and run away. His desire was that that child would stay close because there’s a lot of things, evil things, out there to pull us away. He wants us to come close so he can protect us because he loves us so much.

Don’t pull away like a child. Stay close and keep a hold of the Father’s hand. He’s going to lead you through times of troubles. He’s going to lead you through and He’s going to give you victory. The victory that you desire in your heart, that’s what He desires for His children. So stay close to your Father. He loves you so much. He has good things in store for you.

Pastor’s words: Let’s worship the Lord. Worthy. Stay close to the Father. Isn’t that true? I just had that dream last night, by the way, if you want to know the truth, of a little child just pulling away and running away. And we couldn’t find the child because it should have stayed close. And we should have kept our hand on it.

Listen, stay close to the Father. Man, He’s got a hold of you. And I know that you think sometimes He’s not here, but He has never forsaken you, nor me, nor will he ever leave us. Amen. Can you say amen to that?

I like this part that Paul said to Timothy. He said, “Timothy, when you’re faithless, God remains faithful.” John says in 1 John, listen what he said, he said, “When your heart deceives you, God is greater than your heart.” How about that?

We like every coming from the heart, but sometimes the heart can deceive us. Or those emotions and feelings can deceive us. But God’s is greater than that. Someone say amen to that.

Signs America has lost its moral compass

July 31, 2019 by

There is plenty of evidence to suggest that America has lost its moral compass.

All the presidential candidates of one major party would take the position that it is okay to abort a human baby at all stages of gestation, even after normal birth. To many women, it is an issue that only they can decide. Roe v Wade, rightly or wrongly, provides them that opportunity. But that may be in for a change soon.

The 14th Amendment rights presently being denied babies may trump women’s rights under Roe v Wade. Noted and respected lawyers are saying it. A recent statement on the internet put it honestly and accurately: “It’s a sad day when it is easier to abort an American child than to deport an illegal alien.”

A recent letter writer wondered what the world would come to. Many of us echo that thought. The newly appointed CEO for Planned Parenthood was recently fired for wanting Planned Parenthood to become more interested in women’s health. Isn’t that what they are supposed to be about? ~Dick Jordan, St. Joseph, MO

Key and a vine of ivy on a wooden floor.

The keys to patience are acceptance and faith.

Accept things as they are and look realistically at the world around you.

Have faith in yourself and in the direction you have chosen. Ask the Lord for wisdom and guidance as you journey along life’s trail.

If you do not like things as they are, ask the Lord to change you or them.

Parable of the Fig Tree

In Matthew 24:32-36, Jesus tells us to learn from the fig tree. The tree represents Christ. When people come to you, are you empty? You have no fruit to share. You are not prepared to give of the wisdom of the Kingdom of God.

We need to be prepared when we meet needy people. They could be those at your work, on the street, at the store, or anyone in your family. Please be filled up and ready to give, not empty with no Word from the Lord.

We are that fig tree, as the Kingdom of God is within us. Recognize that He is near, for we do not know the day or the hour He will be returning. ~Pastor Larry Gray, June 2, 2019
