Mark 5:18-20

Mark 5:18-20 (KJV)
18 And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.
19 Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

Today’s Prayer (01/31/2019)

Lord God, I know that the evil spirits that were cast out, by Your power, in Your day are still possessing people in our day also. Nothing has changed expect for the world getting more darker and people living in more sin than ever before. It is because people love darkness rather than Your light is why people are looking at pornography, sleeping around, doing drugs, drinking alcohol and such. For Lord, they have forgotten Your laws and only care about the lusts of the flesh. It surely is a dark world that we live in Lord. It seems that people have lost all desires to follow You. This is very disheartening. I know how destructive Satan can be and I wish that more people would see this before it is too late. Please come Lord and lead valiant men of God to these people of the world, that we may be prayed over and demons may be cast out at large. I know that we have a fight at hand, but I know that with You we can do all things. You give us the power to call out the evil one, that he may no longer torment the lost. And Lord, I pray that people will learn from their mistakes and give heed to You and Your commands, starting today. May they submit themselves to You, that every sin may be blotted out of their lives. You can heal everyone and this I ask, Lord. In Your Holy Name, Amen.

Mark 3:3-5

Mark 3:3-5 (KJV)
3 And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth.
4 And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.
5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

Today’s Prayer (01/30/2019)

Oh Lord, I pray that every believer will simply leave the pride of their hearts at Your table. Help us all to be willing to leave our own intentions behind, in order to follow You and do Your will. I know that many times in our lives we get caught up with doing things that are not pleasing in Your sight. We may even fall into a religious system that is false, so we need Your guidance and direction. These things we need to know about, that we may stop doing them and turn from our wicked ways. Help us get out of the religious routine, that we may stay focused on You and Your will only. When religion becomes who we are, we often times become hard hearted and think we know better. For this reason Lord, break the barrier of pride. May every person that says they love You Lord, also obey You and not the will of men. We come unto You with our whole hearts, that You may usher into our lives Your love. Just as You showed compassion and kindness to everyone, help us to live that way also. May we learn to love everyone, as You love us, Lord. Help us come out of this world and into Your arms. We want to learn of You and be led by You always. You are our delight and we want more of You, Jesus. Amen.

Doing Good On The Sabbath

Jesus knew the evil intentions of the Pharisees and did not approve of their murmurings, one to another.

Matthew 20:15,16

Matthew 20:15,16 (KJV)
15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?
16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.

Today’s Prayer (01/28/2019)

Oh Lord, I pray everyone that says that they are Christian, will also step up and do Your will. May they no longer stand idly by while there is work to do in Your kingdom. We are all called to follow You after we come to faith, but not everybody listens. This is there sad choice and if nothing is done about this, You have taught me that there will also be no rewards in heaven or entrance also. For I know that You honor those that are truly are on Your side. You have called us into Your fold knowing that many will be called but few that listen. And with those that listen, some of them will only follow You for a time and then back out later. You have also helped me realize that many people will come to You later in their lives and then live out their faith to the fullest. I just pray that everyone that knows You, Jesus, will stay focused on serving You till the end. And may there be no complaining among those people that have been a believer longer than most. Instead, give these people a humble and a loving heart, that they may be able to welcome in the new believers and help them along the way. I know Lord that service in Your harvest is needed but laborers are few. This I also pray for. That more people will get involved, if it is evangelism, church service, and helping those in need. May our will be for You and no longer for things that do not save. Surely, only You can save us from hell and lead us to heaven. This I pray that more people will respond to Your guidance and direction. I love You Lord. Amen.

Laborer’s In God’s Vineyard

The Lord God calls every person to work in His vineyard. They will all then be given the same reward when all is set and done.

1 John 3:1-3

1 John 3:1-3 (KJV)
1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

Today’s Prayer (01/26/2019)

Oh Lord, I am so grateful that you found me when I was so broken inside. Many years ago, I was so lost and headed on the wrong path, but it was because of much prayer that everything changed. You saw my intentions to do everything I could to restore my marriage and to leave the addiction of pornography behind. It was just up to me to go the extra mile and come unto You for help. I had already looked at different avenues for assistance but as time went on, I knew that only Your healing was able to lead me out the darkness, that had me bound, in order to come unto Your light and find freedom. By myself, I was not able to resist temptation and was not able to fight against Satan. However, as I came to You in confessions, Your holy presence came upon me. I may not have had any way to deal with my addictions in the past, but with You on my side, things became very different. First of all, You came and cleansed me of all my sins and gave me a new heart. A heart that had the power to fight against sin, by way of the Holy Spirit. Because Your mercy was for me, I was made stronger to resist the temptations of this world. You built me up to the point, Lord, that I now hate sin. Even the appearance of pornography is like a dagger to the soul. I want nothing of it, as it offends me deeply. I pray that others will also escape this life of sexual sin. Come and convict these people of their sins, that they may also repent and be healed today. I trust in You, Jesus. You are my Healer. I love You Lord. Amen.

God Cleansed Me Of All My Sins

Now myself and David have a lot in common. We both lusted after women and commit adultery, in the meantime. I was also big into looking at pornography.

Psalm 51:12,13

Psalm 51:12,13 (KJV)
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

The Mormon Church Is False

The Mormon Church is false. Every Christian needs to know this, in order to not be deceived themselves and to know how to witness to them

Psalm 51:9-11

Psalm 51:9-11 (KJV)
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

Matthew 17:1-3

Matthew 17:1-3 (KJV)
1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

Today’s Prayer (01/25/2019)

Oh Lord, I pray that people will no longer miss out on the experiences you have for them. So many times people allow fear to creep into their lives and your desires for them are no longer heard. Instead of giving into your desires for their lives, they instead doubt the fact that they can and should do it and back out. This is saddening to see in many so-called Christian lives now-a-days. You see them worshiping with their hands up high in church but when you have a calling for their lives, it is a different story in how they react. I know this to be true Lord, as this used to be me. I used to hear Your promptings all the time, like I do now, but in the past my doubts got in the way. I’d see people that were struggling and have an instinct to stop and care for them, and instead I’d continue driving. Afterword’s, I’d feel terrible about it. These events happened countless times until I finally decided, Lord, that following You and doing Your will was most important. It didn’t matter what I thought about things and how they people that of me. I instead decided to just trust in Your desires for my life. Because of this, there are now countless blessings, that I’ve received from these experiences. Thank You Lord. You have allowed me to not only be blessed but also bless other people’s lives. I am so happy that You are still leading me to this day. You have brought me the greatest joy of all. This same joy I want to share with the world. I love You God. Amen.

The Mount Of Transfiguration

So, as the story of the transfiguration continued, two key prophets from the Old Testament appeared. Namely, Moses and Elijah.

Offspring

The Psalmist calls the offspring of Jacob to glorify God. We might assume that the offspring of Jacob refers to the Jewish people, and it probably does.
