2/21/10 Do acts of Mercy. How can I do acts of mercy?
Is that to be compassionate by going to places that have needs when tragedy strikes, or to help those who are in need?
The Bible says that the ones who are in need are not those who have had tragedy strike to them, but those who have problems.
IF you are sick or in need, then I should show mercy to you. Mercy is given freely because you have a need and not because
you meet conditions. Give freely to those that need, so I will give out of my heart because that is what God put in me.
Healing the sick and doing the works that Jesus did are works of mercy. Jesus
did many great works and they were what we called miracles, that was mercy. Grace came for Jesus brought grace and truth
for He is grace and truth and that manifested mercy in the lives of people. When you go in grace you will manifest mercy. Mercy
overcomes judgment. Mercy is more powerful then judgment.Give mercy to those who need it and they will respond in love seeing the
power of God in their life. Father help me to manifest your grace and
walk in your mercy, for so often I respnd out of my flesh and not of your grace or mercy. Help me to not respond
from cause of how I feel but because of what Jesus did for me. Love me and show me your love, so that I may show others that
you are love. The Bible says that God is love and when I understand that then and only then can I demonstrate that love.

Tell me what do you do when you have a tragedy or when you are forced to change to your plans? So
often we cannot adjust to change and that causes us problems. I want you to know that God will provide for you even when
there is great change. On Sunday this past week the Saints won the Super Bowl. When I was a child the Saints were a terrible
team and the father of the present of Colts QB ran the Saints team, yet they still did not do well. The Saints
went marching in and won. Soon we will go marching in to Heaven for we who beleive in Jesus are saints. Jesus is coming back
for us and we will be changed in a twinkling of an eye. This mortality shall put on immoratility and we will have new
bodies and evermore we will be with the Lord. I want you to know
that God is for you and nothing will change that. God is not mad at you! Gdo preserves the way of the righteous and the devil
cannot change that! I understand that God is not only willing to save me or able but wants to do because HE loves
me. God wants you well and is willing for most of us we question does God want me well. Does God want me to get delivered?
Will God keep me despite my problems? We see them as our problems and not as opportunities for God to display
His Glory. God is not mad at you! God is in love with you - that is why He sent Jesus. God so loved you that HE gave
his only son so that you might not perish but have everlasting life. Pastor John our Founder would tell us that
your Eternal life began the day you were born again. God put you in a place and God will keep you so stop worrying it
about for it only adds wrinkles to your body! God is not your enemy
for God does all things well and God says HE always causes you to triumph. God will be in your corner and God is
on your side. A Pastor I once kneew said there are no 9 inning ball games with God. Jesus is on your team and your Daddy
is the umpire so if at the end of 9 innings you lost then you want to play some more then you go to overtime. You
will win! You cannot lose! The house you will keep! The healing you will get! The finances will turn around! The answer
will come! The wisdom you need will be given ! All the promises of God are yes and Amen in Christ Jesus! All =All in
the Greek and Hebrew. All means All.There is not one promise of God you do not meet the condition for because Jesus
did it all. It is a finished work! Accept the work and walk in the provision and say I got it! Let the redeemed
of the Lord say so! Its mine I got it - Yahoo I have it all for It is mine and no devil will take it from me! Stop talking
the problem and start talking the answer for even if you do not see praise Him before HE does it for you know He will.
What if he does not? The more you rejoice in God the more you will see His power flow through you! God inhabits the praise
of His people. The praise of God's people confounds the enemy and then you can rest while God does it before your
eyes! Too often we make it about our work instead of letting God do it for us so I want you to Rejoice and give
for that is the way of the kingdom. Those that have give to those that have not. As God leads you give to those
He leads you to give to. So my friends rejoice and rest in Him and
then you will see the salvation of God in your midst!

2/7/10 Tell me do you believe that we are in the end of
days? Do you belive that Jesus is coming soon or do you think that it is a myth or that it will not happen in your
lifetime? Do you know that God is for you or do you think that it is based on your goodness and your ability to
keep yourself. God is your keeper and we go through life based either on a knowledge we learned by 1) experiences
2) what others told us 3) what the Bible said. God told Job that He did things and gave him a revelation of who HE
is and then Job saw things in a new light. You can only know the truth by the revelation of God' Spirit and then you
will be free, IF you walk in the knowledge of experience or people then it might help you but only the sustaining power
of God and His Spirit can preserve you from all the wiles of the Devil.
We need the revelation of God so we can walk in freedom. Jesus said that you must know the truth and then the truth can
set you free Stand fast in the liberty of Jesus Christ who made you free. The freedom you have is because of what
Jesus did and whether you can see him working in your life or not does not matter, but stand in what the Bible says you
have and walk in the assurance of Calvary for you belong to him and HE made you free so walk in it. This is the
truth Jesus died to give to you!

Tell me is Jesus really the one who will meet all your needs or should you look for another? Too often
we think that the meeting of our needs is about what I must do. I must get a job. I must work. I must do this. I
must and because it is about my doing then we see it as my work and not God's. We are so focused on our doing that we simply
forget to BE. It is not about our doing but about being in Him. IN HIM i live and move and have my being. I believe that Jesus is my Savior and that means to us that we believe that one day we will go
to Heaven, but is that all it means. Does salvation only include going to Heaven? Did Jesus only die so that you can go to
Heaven? I believe that Jesus is my healer. Will you believe that? Or will you limit yourself to the doctor and his report.
Do you hope that God will heal you or will you take that same faith that you used to get saved with and believe that God will
heal you. The Bible says As you recieved Him so walk in Him Col 2:6 and then it goes on in v7 rooted and grounded in
Him. You cannot be rooted and grounded in Him unless you realize that as you received him so walk in Him. He is
your Savior, Healer, and Provider, and does all you need so you can walk in it. HE did it all! Salvation did not
leave anything out. HE provided for all your needs borh for this life and the next. Once you are rooted and grounded
then no man will spoil you with enticing words about the thing you need to receive. Believe Jesus is your healer
and provider as well as your Savior. Don't Limit God! This is a
new year and I need to change what I say too - instead of saying I don't have the money to thank you Jesus for you
will provide my needs by your riches in glory. Did you see that? I get to go into the bank account of Jesus Christ to
have my needs met. What He got I got. You have all HE has. Stop seeing your lack- see your provision. This is the truth of
Calvary and what God wanted to provide for you. The OT was based on the credit card God would give from the bank of Jesus
Christ. The NT is based on the payment being made and in Isa 40:2 says to - sepak ye comfortably to Jerusalem and unto
her that the warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath recieved of the Lord's hand
DOUBLE for all her sins. This verse tells us that 1) the battle is over those in Him have won 2) Jesus died outside Jerusalem
so remember if you were in Him then you are in this verse. 3) You have received 2x what is needed for your
sins. The whole reason man has lack and does not have their needs
met is because of sin. You have sickness, disease and poverty because of Adam's sin and it says that
Jesus paid 2X for all your sin. Your sin and the payment you needed was DOUBLE. God is more then enough for he
is EL SHADDAI the God who does more then we need. So stop seeing your lack instead see Jesus not only as your sin
substitute but also your substitute for all the lack in your life. It does not matter who caused the lack God will provide.
See the provision for the provider lives in you!
