Thoughts on the decline of our Lifespan.
Thoughts on the decline of our Lifespan.
We see a continuing decline in the Lifespan of Humanity as we move from the initial span of eternity with a direct walk with the Almighty to the declining span of Adam, Seth, Noah down to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob down to the present day where we are to live for about 120 years and are living a…

Hello Pastors, leaders and sanctified men and women of God! The summer is a great time to share Christ as you walk at the beach or park. The increase in drug and alcohol abuse, anxiety, depression, and family conflicts is partially a result of the last year. It has made people more aware of their need for hope and help. As the outdoors is opened up, use the opportunity to show the love of Jesus! Also, let's remember to pray for Haiti as the country is…

Can you add any more ingredients to your day?
Recipe for a Great Day!
1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.
2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Talk to God about what is going on in your life. Buy a lock if you have to.
3. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, 'My…

"Highway to Heaven - It is Time to Learn to Fly"
One of the most tragic mistakes of Christianity has been to focus on the prophecies of judgment about the end of the age instead of fulfilling the commandment to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom. Gospel means "good news," and it is the greatest news the world has ever or will ever hear. When that greatest hope of all is articulated, no message on earth will have ever had a greater impact. It is time to take up this…

Forgiveness Heals
It’s easier to be bitter
Than to feel the pain of grief
It’s easier to be angry
Than look for true relief
It’s easier to blame someone
For all the sufferings
It’s easier to sit alone
When imperfect grace stings
But if my Lord I’d follow
I’ll not seek ease,…

When God Heals
When God Heals
When God comes to heal us
It’s final and complete
There is nothing that is lacking
When He meets us in our need
Whether it be in our body
Or the hurt within our soul
He will touch the point of need
And will truly make us whole
His healing is there for you
Just receive it from the Lord
Believe upon the living word
That you can be…

Meeting You Where You Are?
Daily Bible Verse & Prayer
Today's Verse - Matthew 7:1
Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Am I judgmental?
Can I assume I can judge another person's intent?
Am I critical and negative about the actions of others?
Jesus wants us all to realize that only he can accurately know the motivations of someone's heart. When we are harsh or bitingly critical in our judgment of others, we are setting the standard by which God will judge us. I don't know about you, but I'm not willing to exchange God's grace for my unreasonable and judgmental harshness. I'm going to work harder at viewing others with mercy and grace, just as the Savior did when he died to save me (Romans 5:6-11).
My Prayer...
O, dear God, please forgive me for the times when I have been unfairly harsh and critical with my thoughts and actions toward others. Thank you for being so rich and free with your mercy and grace lavished on me in Jesus. O, LORD, I long to be more gracious and merciful in the way I live with my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. In Jesus' name, I pray to grow in my JESUShaped with graciousness. Amen.

For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
God has been, is, and will be the God of all comfort for both his Old Covenant and New Covenant people (Isaiah 40:1-3; 2 Corinthians 1:3-5). Even when he deals harshly with our sin and rebellion, it is for our good. God's discipline will last only a short while, and then it gives way to rejoicing and the thrill of salvation, redemption, restoration, and renewal. If you are in a time of discipline or facing the cruel consequences of your sin, please don't give up. Morning will come, and on that dawn will come God's gracious healing, joy, and complete salvation, restoration, renewal, and joy. The morning of rejoicing is more than worth the wait through the long, dark nights of weeping!
My Prayer...
Father, please bless your children who are facing hardships and difficulties. Please help them endure through "the night" so that when your dawn comes, they can experience the great rejoicing that lies ahead with you. In particular, LORD, please specifically bless the following people with the strength to endure their hard nights of weeping and bring them into your morning of joy. (Let's mention several people by name who need this blessing!) In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

For this is what the high and lofty One says — he who lives forever, whose name is holy: "I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite."
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus' gracious and redemptive coming to earth is wholly consistent with the LORD God's nature, the one who reveals himself in the Old Testament, and fully reveals himself in this passage. God is high and holy. God is righteous and majestic. Yet the LORD God is the God of incarnation — the LORD who sees our needs, hears our cries, and comes down to help us (Exodus 3:7-12). God loves people, especially people who come to him knowing that they need his love and grace. To those who seek him with passion, humility, awe, and reverence, God brings revival that touches the heart and spirit of those who are contrite.
My Prayer...
Holy and Righteous Father, thank you for loving me and coming to save me in Jesus. Father, I come humbly asking that you fill me with your Spirit in a more powerful way. Revive my heart and stir me to work for your glory in my life today. I know you have come and met me where I am, to lift me up and make me yours. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
