Live Laugh Pray

A reminder to remember what is really important. Trials, sufferings and afflictions will always be a part of our lives, but we can be strong and courageous.  We have God’s Word which is the truth that we have filled with God’s blessings and promises, which is what the world needs.  If you know the bible and keep that Word of God in your heart, you shall be more than overcomers! Your life will be rich and fruitful because you will learn of hope and direction for your life and receive the fruits of the Spirit of God which are; love, real joy, true peace,  self-control, faithfulness, kindness, long suffering and goodness. These are the things that our world needs today. You need to know God and His Word. You need to find, seek and search for truth yourself. It is not enough to just go to church whenever you feel like it and just let someone else read God’s Word to you. If that is what you want because that is how you were taught or because it is more convenient for you, then let

November Prayer Request

  A s we are nearing the end of 2016, we can reflect on this amazingly different year. It was a year of chaos, dramatics changes in worldview, in governments and even in within our hearts. This is also a time of the year when many are hurting, grieving, lonely, anxious and sad.  Please make some time during this month and help us to lift up those who are hurting, those that are mourning, those that are lost along with these prayer requests.   Blessed  are   those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.  Matthew 5:4                                                                                 NOVEMBER 2016 Pray For Those With Hardships    Proverbs 17:3 Pray For Those With Physical & Mental Illness   2 Corinthians 1: 3 - 5 Pray For Those Who Are Lonely    Psalm 34: 17 - 19 Pray For Those With Addictions    Zechariah 4:6 A devotional by Oswald Chambers I say to you, he who believes in Me,… greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Fa

"I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.” 1 Corinthians 3:6- 8 How many times have you ministered to a friend and later find yourself wondering how they are doing? Did your words plants seeds? Are those seeds being watered? These are questions that you would ask after you had an opportunity to talk and pray with someone. For example last month I had a chance to see some family out in the Midwest. It is always a great time when you are with family. To me these visits become “ m y mission field ” because I do want to see my family come to Jesus. I stay alert looking for an opportunity to pray with them or talk with them so I can point them to Jesus. I like using scriptures or a bible references and try not to preach to them, because that’s not my styl

Who and What Am I

This week we will play a game. I will write a description out and you tell me WHO and WHAT I am. Ready? Let the games begin. ·         Ezekiel 28:14-19 “You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; You were on the holy mountain of God; You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, Till iniquity was found in you. “By the abundance of your trading You became filled with violence within, And you sinned; Therefore I cast you as a profane thing Out of the mountain of God; And I destroyed you, O covering cherub, From the midst of the fiery stones. “Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor; I cast you to the ground, I laid you before kings, That they might gaze at you. “You defiled your sanctuaries By the multitude of your iniquities, By the iniquity of your trading; Therefore I brought fire from your midst; It devo

Night Season

                       Night Season Let’s put on some worship as we take a look at this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7Rx2-RWea8 Psalm 30:5 For His anger  is but for  a moment, His favor  is for  life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy  comes  in the morning. Once upon a time “ the night season” scripture was vague to me. But the time came where I would hear this scripture in my life, and with such clarity I began to understand “ the night season”.  Have you had this experience? It is the dark moments of life, where you feel all alone. You can’t see where you’re going so you might be afraid and in that time of the night season, you feel like no one understands you and like nobody cares, which is all part of the enemy's trick to convince you that God isn’t there in your mist.  Of course these are lies from Satan to discourage you and to keep you from realizing the Truth, that God is with you. God is there holding you and walking with you through thi

Let us Praise God

Image
T oday I want to remind us that God has done so much for us! Even in the smallest of details, God has cared for us.  Let’s look at Psalm 150 and how God’s Word instructs us to “Praise the Lord” Psalm 150  Praise the  Lord ! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heaven! Praise him for his mighty works; praise his unequaled greatness! Praise him with a blast of the ram’s horn; praise him with the lyre and harp! Praise him with the tambourine and dancing; praise him with strings and flutes! Praise him with a clash of cymbals; praise him with loud clanging cymbals. Let everything that breathes sing praises to the  Lord ! I want to share my beautiful blessing with you. About 2 years ago, in the middle of the hottest summer month here Southern California (August), I had asked God to please send a small breeze, small wind. It was up in the 100’s and it was unbearable. Guess what? Yes indeed, a moment later, there was a small breeze. I looked at the tr
