Happy Spiritual Birthday!

Spring is my season! For quite some time now I notice that I enjoyed the spring season.   I kept thinking duh, it's Spring and everything comes alive during Spring especially after a long, dark, cold, and dreary Winter.   But now I realize that it was during the Spring of 1995 that God rescued me from my sin and shame.   It was April 13-14 in the year of 1995 that I dedicated my life to serving the Lord.   It was during that time I received a new life in exchange for the old and dead one that I was living.   LOVE came down and rescued me... I remember many years ago but it is still fresh in my mind.   I would say I was at the lowest point in my life. I wanted to die and even tried to take my life. It felt like no one understood me, no one loved me, and no one cared. I felt unworthy, worthless, and unwanted.   I felt like a throw away, I felt lower than dirt.   I was searching and searching for Love and Acceptance. I did what I could to try to fulfill those needs. After engaging i

Pressing on to Know the Lord

Pressing on to Know the Lord Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do , forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead , I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. ( Phi_3:13-14 ) We have noted that humility is one of the relational realities that God wants to develop in our lives so we can live daily by the grace of God. " God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble " ( Jam_4:6 ). Here we see evidence of the godly humility that had developed in the Apostle Paul through the years. " Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended ." When these words were written, Paul had been walking with the Lord for 25 to 30 years. Yet, he admits that he had not "fully arrived." He confesses that he did not know the Lord so completely that his entire life was a demonstration of resurrection living. Consequently, he had one g

I Belong To Him!

I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus. I believe in my heart that God sent His Only Son Jesus to die on the cross for my sins. I believe in my heart that Christ Jesus came to this earth, lived a sinless life, died on the cross, took the wrath of God upon Himself for the punishment of my sins so that I may recieve the gift of eternal life. I believe in my heart that Jesus died and the Spirit of God raised Him up on the 3rd day. I believe that Jesus is alive forever more and He is now seated at the right hand of God ever interceeding for me. I believe that Jesus sent His Holy Spirit to live in me and be with me so that I may live this life according to His will. I have confessed with my mouth and believed in my heart that Jesus is my Lord and Savior and that I am saved. Hallelujah! I believe in my heart and therefore it is accounted unto me as righteousness, therefore I am in right standing with God. My name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Hallelujah! I am no longer a slave t

Divorce/Remarriage??? What does the Bible say?

Divorce/Remarriage???   What does the Bible say? "Furthermore it has been said, 'Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.' But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.   (Matthew 5:31-32 NKJV) So He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery." (Mark 10:11-12 NKJV) "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced from her husband commits adultery. (Luke 16:18 NKJV) Example: Tim and Susan are married. Susan had an affair in the relationship. Tim divorces Susan because of her marital unfaithfulness.             Scenario 1 : Tim marries another woman name Sally. Sally was never married before. Sin or

Correction

-
Correction is Biblical! "For whom the Lord love He reproves, even as a father the son in whom he delights." Proverbs 3:12 "Behold, how happy is the man whom God reproves, so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. For He inflicts pain, and gives relief; He wounds, and His hands also heal." Job 5:17-18 "Blessed is the man whom You chasten, O Lord, and whom You teach out of Your law; that You may grant him relief from the days of adversity, until a pit is dug for the wicked." Psalm 94:12-13 "But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord so that we will not be condemned along with the world." 1 Corinthians 11:32 "Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison." 2 Corinthians 4:16-17 "My son, do not regard lightly the discipline
