Thought for the Day

"Here is the sum of it all. Take a close look at your life. Ask yourself, "With what I know, with the knowledge I have, in my present state of awareness:

• Have I prepared my body to be the temple of the LORD?
• Have I prepared my mind to house the truths of God?
• Have I prepared my spirit to receive to receive what God has prepared me for?

The answer to these questions will help you to gravitate toward a healthier diet and better living conditions for your body.
The answer to these questions will help you to learn the Word of God and let it create in you the mind of Christ.
The answer to these questions will help you to seek His face and go deeper than ever before; to quit playing games with your future. God doesn't want you gambling with your future. He wants you to see His vision for your life. Then He wants you to live out that vision, in Christ."

Thought for the Day

• "If we choose to reject Him, God sees the consequences and it becomes true.
• If we choose to accept Him, God sees the blessings and they become fulfilled.
• If we choose to receive all that God has for us and we choose to submit our whole self to Him, God sees what He intended for us......
• If you or I continue to live outside of God's will for our life, it won't be because God didn't clearly expose the consequences.
• It won't be because God didn't clearly identify Himself to each and every human being.
• It won't be because God missed our name and forgot to call us. It is the will of God that all mankind be saved.
• It won't be because someone grew up in a remote area of Brazil and God couldn't reach them.

Stop believing the lies of the unbeliever and their religious cohorts about how and when and who and why and where. They don't have a clue. The next time the question comes up, "If God were a loving God, how could He let so many people die without knowing Him?"  You tell them, "How could so many people die without having recognized the love of God?"

"In God=s foreknowledge rest=s our future.  God has revealed His plan for mankind.  If we will not turn around and head towards God, we seal our own fate - not because God predestined our rejection (like some think), not because God caused us to disobey Him, not because God has favorites, (like some think).  No, it will be because, in God=s foreknowledge, He sees what we choose and figures that into - who we are."

Thought for the Day

"Once we realize that when God delivers us, He delivers the whole person, (body, mind and spirit) we can better understand where we should be, in Christ. The tomorrow God sees for us includes good health. The tomorrow God sees for us includes a sound mind. The tomorrow God sees for us includes a willing spirit.



Now, I am going to speak to three kinds of people. Hear the Word of the Lord:


1 "If you live your life separate from Me, when you cross over into the unknown, you will continue to live separate from Me."


2 "If you include Me in your life, activities, lifestyle, long term and short term goals, decisions and everyday operations, you will continue to be guided and protected."


3 "If you decide to trust Me, believe Me, put faith in Me, praise Me, Worship me, listen to Me and obey Me, you will be directed by Me to fulfill what I prophesy for you."

Thought for the Day

"There are preachers and teachers and parishioners and students that don't believe that the story of Lazarus and the rich man was true. They don't believe that the other Lazarus was really dead. They don't believe that the man next to Jesus went to paradise.
They don't believe in:

• Salvation by grace alone
• Sanctification through the Word of God
• The great commission
• They don't believe that there's power in the blood
• They don't believe that satan is a spiritual being
• They don't believe that prayer is for today
• They don't believe in the indwelling Holy Spirit
• They don't believe in an end of the age
• They don't believe that Jesus is the only name by which we must be saved
• They don't believe that Jesus took a coin from the fishes mouth
• They don't believe the wicked will be punished

I could go on for hours. Unfortunately, there are far too many people, many who claim to be Christians, that don't believe what God says about Himself. They can't see God, taste God, touch God, smell God or feel God, so they don't believe God.

• They have prayed and nothing happened
• They have called and heard no answer
• They have begged and God did not respond

They have decided that if God were real, He would prove Himself to them in a tangible way, not once, but over and over again.  Since God has not performed a miracle suitable for them, they will not believe. So be it."

"There are many who don't read the Old Testament, because "it's old and archaic and full of unimportant, non-scientific, not historically sound, half truths mixed with allegories and stories."



There are some who believe in the historical Jesus, but not the miraculous Jesus. They believe He lived, but they believe He died, and stayed dead. They believe He was just another prophet taking up our valuable time trying to be something He wasn't.


There are a huge constituency that believe in a god. They're OK with that, but not a real God, that thinks and moves and creates and communicates and delivers and heals and rebuilds. Not a God that provides and protects and chastises, and loves and blesses and answers.

Some people don't believe simply because they have not seen God. They believe they have a brain though and yet they haven't seen their brain, but that's OK, everybody knows we have a brain. Right? "A double minded man is unstable in all his ways." James 1:8

Thought for the Day

"There are some still trying to figure out the virgin birth as if it could be figured out, and if they don't figure it out, then it must not have happened. There are still many who can't get past the Trinity. "The word Trinity is not in the Bible, therefore it must not be true," but they don't believe the Bible, so why does that make any difference?

here are many that don't believe in hell, so since they don't believe in it, it must not exist. After all why would a loving God create a place of torment? The problem is that if we believe in a loving God, we have to believe in a hell too, because it is the same book that speaks of a loving God that teaches of the place called hell.

There are still many, many, even Sunday School teachers, that do not believe the Red Sea was parted. They have provided a scientific explanation that better fits their faith. "The Red Sea was shallow that day, and the wind dried up the bottom of the Sea and the Hebrews walked across dry land, and just about the time they were crossing the Egyptians were coming after them and a huge storm blew up and filled up the Red Sea and the Egyptians all drowned in 3" of water." This is what happens when people make up their our own version of the scriptures. They make up distorted, ridiculous, unbelievable and just plain false concepts.

God doesn't need your help or mine to reveal Himself by His Word, but He does need for us to believe what He says."
