Prayer?

Many Kinds!

God is not limited to hearing us cry out to Him, to give thanks, to praise Him! Humanity likes to jeer God and make Him small and far away, to undermine the people of faith as nutters, weaklings losers?

Prayer does help in our times of need, wither we are praying for our own situation or that of another!

Born-again believers know already that our relationship with God, through Jesus His one and only Son allows us to see the miracles, the impossible at work all the times and everyday!

Our God is near and not limited, He answers in His time and He gives what is needed to meet each situation!

Genesis 13:8,  19:7-8,  Exodus 10:17,  Job 42:8,  Psalm 5:2, Matthew 6:9,  Romans 8:26,  2 Corinthians 13:7,  2 Thessalonians 3:2,  Hebrews 13:8,  3 John 1:2.

Life and Death?

Medicine does not have all the Cures?

It big news at this time about a little baby, who is being kept alive by a machine at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). But others believe there is the possibility of a cure in the U.S. that is worth following through?

We so much need hope today in this world, hope that life will be lived over that of death and murder! The youth are killing themselves over crap rivalry and listening to music that is neither cultural or inspiring!

We all need to have our faith in God, to believe in the impossible to know that we are cared for and loved by God who gave us His one and only Son! So that we would be set free from the darkness of this life into the hope of the New Life!

John 3:3,  15-16,  31-36,  Proverbs 8:30,  Philippians 2:9-11.

A New kind of People. One.

Not what we Where?

It can be hard for many who believe and then go to fellowship, only to find people still gossipping as they were in the world?

James (Ya'akov=Jacob) warns believers that we cannot carry on now like we were before, salt and fresh water cannot come from the same spring! There are a few other illustrations that one could search for this week and have a bit of bible study, that relate to we cannot be hot and cold?

If we claim faith in Jesus, we must walk in His ways and no longer in the ways of this world!

James 3:5-9,  Matthew/Levi 6:24,  Luke 16:13.

U.K. At War with Islam.

A united humanitarian Front?

The truth is that Britain and its various religious leaders like to keep up the front of unity, when the reality is far worse than meets the eye? The world will either be rational or ritualistic in believing that humanity covers over hatred?

The truth is far harder to bear, British and most western policies are now clashing with the Middle-East! The Internet and mass immigration has caused local frictions, but when a young man detonated himself in Manchester killing twenty-two mostly woman and young children a door was opened to sectarian warfare!

This morning another fanatic has tried to mow-down Muslim worshippers at the notorious Finsbury Park Mosque, if not also the fire at the Grenfell tower-block inferno was not also a backlash attack?

As believers we must not allow politics, or nationalism one kind or another to influence us? We must stay clear of the leaven of hypocrisy and the rationalism of wickedness!

Leviticus 2:11, Matthew/Levi 10:6, Romans 3:22-24, 6:22-23, 1 Corinthians 13:6-7, James 2:19-25.

In times of Trouble? Two.

Believers have it Tough!

The world always thinks to be a Christian, to be born-again is for the losers, the weak? But we know that the truth. it is the world who are the weak, cowardly losers!

This is proved by their refusal to believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus, the forgiveness of their sins by a merciful God, who they need to repent too, as once we too did!

It is hard to be a believer, because we will get troubles from the darkness of this world and Satan! But we have the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, who strengthens us daily to rebuke the devil in Jesus name to pray for others, to forgive them and to love without hate!

It is a tall order, but its rewards far outstretch anything this world could ever give us!

Ephesians 3:16,   Matthew/Levi 6:13,   Philippians 4:13.

PENTECOST!

For Believers Only!

This is the truth, it is only we who know that Jesus has forgiven and forgotten our past sins are given this power of the Holy Spirit to comfort and help us walk with God!

The world can claim many things, as it does along with its false teachers even in the Christian Churches? They push homosexuality today, while they hide their paedophilia? Dishonesty, theft, and the breaking of many rights for their own financial gains all done in the name of God!

But we are beyond that, by choice and because of what Jesus has done for us we desire now to please Him and see others come to the truth that we know!

Isaiah 53:12,  Luke 16:15,  John 16:7,  Acts chapter 2,  Romans 8:34,  Ephesians 3:14-19.

In times of Trouble? One.

What a friend we Have!

Our world and our nations are under attack from a ruthless army, who attack soft targets to maim mostly woman and children and also Christians! These are the big men of the Islamic State, who are proving their cowardliness to us now!

But we know that their are many evil forces at work, who are equally cruel in vice and trafficking, blackmail and extortion? All is not lost, if we know that we have a friend like Jesus in our hearts and lives!

He is the one who gives us the daily hope to go on, despite all that both Manchester, Westminster Bridge and the attacks in Egypt are costing in death, destruction and emotional breakdown. We who believe knows that our God never gives up on us, because 'We have a friend in Jesus, such a precious friend!

Proverbs 17:17, Luke 11:12, James 2:23.
