Repent, Seek the LORD

Dear Friends -

These are AWESOME days of Awe. The stage has taken a long time to be
fully set, and we are thankful to the Lord for every day in which He
Who now lets, continues to restrain Satan and his Luciferians from
the killing and destruction of WWIII. Now the EU and UN are
preparing to bring troops into Israel. Yes, this is in violation of
the will of the sovereign state of Israel. The purpose of the ARMIES
to COMPASS Jerusalem, is to protect the PA terrorists, from the
effective counter terror tactics of the IDF.

Yes, the stage is set, and underscored by these things now to be
found in the headlines in these days of Awe of 2006:
Large US Naval Attack Force To Reach Gulf In A Couple Of Days; US
Ground Forces Are Being Increased In Iraq;Turkey, with the aid of
Iran, Is Now Attacking The Kurds In Northern Iraq; Hezbollah Has
Rearmed And Increased In Strength, And Is Deployed Again On Israel's
Border Again Issuing Threats; Syria Has Deployed In The Golan And Is
Threatening War; Russian And Arab Forces Are Deploying in Lebanon
Opposite Israel's Border; The PA Has Armed Itself With Much More
Powerful Weapons From Both Egypt And Hezbollah Via Syria; Iran Is
being driven with religious zeal to bring forth the Mahdi, which
demands a great apocalyptic war – hence the push for nuclear weapons
and long range rockets to DO what they Must for the Mahdi, WIPE
ISRAEL OFF THE MAP, using Iran's huge oil revenues to make huge arms
purchases from China & Russia; China Threatening to take over
Taiwan; N. Korea Threatens Action And Prepares For Nuke Test;
Russia Taking Steps To Cut US Gas/Oil, And Threatening Over NATO/USA
Encroachment; Brazil, Russia, India, China, Cuba, Venezuela, Iran,
N. Korea, & Other Communist and South American Nations Have Signed
Accords to jointly Oppose the USA and EU. Even with Venezuela and
Iran making Public Statements To Deploy Missiles Against the USA
From Cuba And Venezuela; Arab Terrorists Groups are reported to be
in the USA some of whom are working with former Russian Special
Forces, with WMD capability, Including Nukes, Ready To Strike in
America.

Personal repentance and preparation for Great Tribulation would seem
to be the wise order of the day. For those who are interested in the
actual Bible Prophecies NOW and SOON to come which show how
thoroughly the stage is NOW set, you may click up this link.

The following ALARM - Ho Ho? may sound familiar to some of you old
timers on the GJiGT list. It was sent to the GJiGT on July 21, 2001,
about 6 weeks BEFORE the 911-WTC tragedy. And it is a timely message
today in these days of Awe leading up to the climax of Yom Kippur,
which this year is Tuesday, October 2, 2006, the only BIBLICALLY
REQUIRED fast day.

ALARM - Ho Ho? (GJiGT – List update from July 21, 2001)

Ho, Ho, only Zechariah uses this word twice. Ho - Strongs #H1945 is
an interesting word. A VERY interesting word meaning: ALARM, miss
this and it will cost you dearly, Oh!, alas, woe, sadly, regrettably,
trouble, trial, loss, tragedy.

Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour
is thy judgment come.

The Mystery of Iniquity has become full. It is a mystery because what
it appears to be is not actually what it is. Mystery Babylon, is
Shinar, Zec 5:11 tells us the house of Mystery Babylon is set up here
and her image, is set there upon her own base.

Zec 2:6-9 Ho, ho, and flee from the land of the north, saith the
LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven,
saith the LORD. Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the
daughter of Babylon. For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the
glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that
toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. For, behold, I will shake
mine hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to their servants: and
ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me.

The L-rd is Again Choosing Jerusalem
The L-rd is Raising Up JUDAH, His Portion
The L-rd is NOW gathering Israel

The 4 horns are finished.
The 4 horns scattering and shaming is finished.
The 4 horns = The PERES Land for Peace gang including Netanyahu It
is time for Zechariah 1:18-21 NOW!

NOW time for 4 carpenters (The Lord's Wrecking Crew - skilled with
hammer, crowbar, and wrecking bar) to tear down political and
religious corruption in Israel. Very soon, God Himself will save a
whole nation in the Greatest Pentecost ever. The door of grace is
closing on reprobate Gentiles who MOCK the Royal Law, the
Everlasting Covenant of God Almighty, with His people. (See Rev
12:17, Rev 14:12, and Rev 22:14)

All Israel is about to get filled with the Holy Spirit like the world
has never seen. "Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith
the L-RD of hosts." "And the feeblest among them shall be as David,
and the house of David shall be as G-d with the Angel of the L-rd
before them." Alleluia! Then we will see: John 14:12 Verily, verily,
I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he
do also; and greater works than these shall he do;

A CURSE is going over the earth, the WHOLE EARTH. The curse is the
result of TWO, 2, great sins - STEALING & LYING.
Stealing Nations, Stealing souls, Stealing liberty, Stealing freedom,
Stealing substance, STEALING LIFE.
Lying, False Swearing. Saying the Lord said and the Lord hath NOT
said. Saying the Lord hath sent, and the Lord hath NOT sent.
Preaching FALSE Messiahs, the Easy Jesus, the Nice Jesus, the Non-
Jewish Jesus, the Prosperity Jesus, the Pretended signs & wonders
Jesus, and the Final Impostor Jesus, a.k.a. the Anti-Christ prince.
Preaching and exporting a counterfeit Holy Ghost who does not
empower one to Love the Lord, Cleave to the Lord, and Obey the Lord
and delight to walk in His Royal Law.

All will soon be measured by a plumb line. G-d sees every secret sin.
G-d knows every wicked thought. G-d knows the corruption in every
heart.
There is a Messianic Yom Kippur Service on the GJiGT web site which
may be located and printed out at this link:

The Days of AWE are all about REPENTANCE. Why do so many think the
Ink Horn sealing angel of Ezekiel 9 may be sent forth to seal the
people of God on the 10th Day of AWE, the Day of Atonement? Monday
is the ONLY Biblically REQUIRED fast day and how much more do
Believers have to celebrate the Day of Atonement feast of the Lord.
Because, there is a tradition dating from back before the first
coming of the Yeshua THE Messiah, that on the 10th day of Awe, The
day of Atonement, Yom Kippur, Day of Covering, would be the time
when the ink horn sealing angel of Eze 9 would be sent forth. That
ink horn sealing angel of Eze 9 is the same sealing angel of Rev 7
and Rev 9.

Rev 9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the
grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but
only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

The stage is set. For those of you seeking some additional
encouragement to find God's mercy and grace in this time as we
prepare for the Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur, click up these:

Ambassadors of God

"Now then we are ambassadors for Christ." 2 Corinthians 5:20

"Now then we are ambassadors for Christ" (2 Corinthians 5: 20). Every Christian is a royal ambassador for the King of Kings. He must live up to the high
calling of his office. An ambassador is appointed by the governmental head of a country. "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you and ordained you,
that ye should go and bring forth fruit" (John 15:16). Astounding that God should choose such ordinary individuals as we are to be His ambassadors. What
dignity!

Ambassadors are sent to a foreign, often unfriendly, country. "As my Father hath sent me, even so send I you" (John 20:21). Travelers in a foreign country
must remember they are not at home and deserving of comfort. "This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through" is every Christian's theme song, for
we are "strangers and pilgrims" (1 Peter 2:11).

It is essential that an ambassador be on good behavior. Christians are to "have a good report of them that are without" (1 Timothy 3:7). "To win some,
you must be winsome."

Ambassadors keep in close touch with their home country. "He that abideth in me and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit" (John 15:5). An ambassador
of God must be in daily communion with the Lord for fresh instructions.

The ambassador is to reconcile and establish good relations between the peoples of the two lands. What an enormous undertaking for God's ambassadors to
beseech men "in Christ's stead" to be "reconciled to God" (2 Cor. 5:20). "The most gigantic undertaking God has laid out for the Christian is to lead lost
souls to Jesus Christ" (Scarborough) . The ambassador is confident and encouraged because he has the power and authority of his government behind him (Matthew
28:19-20).

We are to carry out the purpose and give the message for which we are sent. How was the Lord Jesus sent? "To seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke
19:10). So must a good ambassador do "in Christ's stead" (2 Cor. 5:20), to whom Christ commits the "word of reconciliation" (v. 19).

1st Chronicles

KJV - (King James Version)NIV - (New International Version)BBE - (Bible in Basic English)Scripture of the Day Psalm 119:9-119) Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed theretoaccording to thy word. 10) With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thycommandments. 11) Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.(KJV)9How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word.10I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. 11Ihave hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. (NIV) 119:9 How may a young man make his way clean? by guiding it after your word.119:10 I have made search for you with all my heart: O let me not gowandering far from your teaching. 119:11 I have kept your sayings secretlyin my heart, so that I might do no sin against you. (BBE) Daily DevotionalVerses for the Day:Proverbs 25:11 11) A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. (KJV)11A word aptly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver. (NIV)25:11 A word at the right time is like apples of gold in a network ofsilver. (BBE)Thoughts for the Day:This verse from Proverbs paints a picture of how a word that is spokenwisely appears to others. This kind of word is like golden apples displayedin a setting of silver. The Bible tells us to guard our mouths and to becareful about anything we say. If we are to speak words that are a blessingand that edify others, then we must line up our words with the Word of God.It is very important to control our conversation. We will ultimately receivethe things that we speak. If we speak the Word of God in faith, it will cometo pass. The opposite is also true, if we speak evil long enough, it toowill come to pass, as there is power in words.Psalm 50:23 23) Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth hisconversation aright will I shew the salvation of God. (KJV)23He who sacrifices thank offerings honors me, and he prepares the way sothat I may show him the salvation of God. (NIV)50:23 Whoever makes an offering of praise gives glory to me; and to him whois upright in his ways I will make clear the salvation of God. (BBE)Proverbs 18:20-21 20) A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and withthe increase of his lips shall he be filled. 20) Death and life are in thepower of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.(KJV)20From the fruit of his mouth a man's stomach is filled; with the harvestfrom his lips he is satisfied. 21The tongue has the power of life and death,and those who love it will eat its fruit. (NIV)18:20 With the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach will be full; the produceof his lips will be his in full measure. 18:21 Death and life are in thepower of the tongue; and those to whom it is dear will have its fruit fortheir food. (BBE)We will eat the fruit of our spoken words; therefore, we must learn to speakor confess the Word of God and we must also have faith in it, if we want toreap good things in our lives. We must not confess lack, as the HeavenlyFather has given us everything we need. We must not confess defeat, as Godhas made us more than conquerors. We must not confess doubt, as God hasgiven us His faith. We are to speak the things that the Word of God declaresas truth. We easily quote what men have to say on a subject, and many timeswe believe them despite what the Word of God has to say about it. Yet, weare often hesitant to quote what God says because the devil tells us wewould be lying. He causes us to look at our circumstances rather than theWord. Circumstances are subject to change, and one of the things that cancause them to do so is the confession of God's Word over a particularsituation.For instance, if we are in need of finances, the devil will try to get us toconfess such things as "If I do not have the money to pay my rent, I will bekicked out of my apartment," or "My credit will be ruined if I can't makethe house payment." Instead, we need to align our confession with the Wordof God. Philippians 4:1919) My God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory byChrist Jesus (KJV)19And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches inChrist Jesus. (NIV)4:19 And my God will give you all you have need of from the wealth of hisglory in Christ Jesus. (BBE)Matthew 6:3333) ... seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and allthese things shall be added unto you (KJV)33... seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these thingswill be given to you as well. (NIV)6:33 ... let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; andall these other things will be given to you in addition. (BBE)We should confess our faith and trust in the Lord by saying, "I don't knowhow the Lord is going to help us meet this need, but I confess that He will,because He cares for us." Then we must ask the Lord if there is anything Hewould have us to do. At times, He may speak a plan to us or He may send thehelp through a friend or give us favor with the landlord. We may not knowhow the answer will come, but if we stand and confess our Lord's provisionin the face of our problem and have faith in Him, He will not fail us. We have the power to bring evil or good things forth by what we speak. Jesusreferred to this in:Matthew 12:35-37 35) A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth goodthings: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.36) But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, theyshall give account thereof in the day of judgment.37) For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt becondemned. (KJV)35The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and theevil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. 36But I tellyou that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for everycareless word they have spoken. 37For by your words you will be acquitted,and by your words you will be condemned. (NIV)12:35 The good man out of his good store gives good things; and the evil manout of his evil store gives evil things. 12:36 And I say to you that in theday when they are judged, men will have to give an account of every foolishword they have said. 12:37 For by your words will your righteousness beseen, and by your words you will be judged. (BBE)Psalm 19:14 14) Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptablein thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (KJV)14May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing inyour sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer. (NIV)19:14 Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart be pleasing inyour eyes, O Lord, my strength and my salvation. (BBE)Prayer for the Day:Dear Heavenly Father, I first want to thank You for the wonderful promisesYou have given us in the Bible. Lord, I want to be a person who not onlyspeaks the Word of God, but also one who puts those word into actions.Lord, help me to guard my mouth and speak only those things that areedifying that will bless others. May the words of my mouth and themeditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight as I offer praise untothee. May You be glorified by all that I speak. May I never doubt Your Wordand rely on it in everything I do. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ.Amen.Keep each other in PrAyer and display HuMility. Have a BlEssed day and stayENcourage.

My Kindness shelf is almost bare,I'm getting low on Love,Completely out of Thankfulness,Must send for more above.
I should exchange some Jealousy,I didn't order that!I need a box of Tolerance,For mine seems rather flat!
Oh yes, I must put on my list,The fragrance of His Peace,I need a big supply of Joy,Before my needs increase.
I noticed Patience is on sale,I need so much today.It looks becoming anytime,And mine is almost gray.
Humility is terribly rare,I can't afford it now.But oh, my stock is almost bare,I'll pay for it somehow!

BEWARE OF SCHOLASTIC BOOK CLUB HUMANISTIC UNCHRISTIAN READINGS FOR CHILDREN

BEWARE OF THIS BOOK!
>
> If you have children or grand-children or you have neighbor children
whose parents you know, please take note of the info below or pass it
along to others. Schools are a distribution point to children for this
book through the Scholastic Book Club. Beware of the book
"Conversations with God" and Dr. James Dobson talked about this book
twice this week. It is devastating and parents and Christian schools
need to be aware of this. Do pass it on to church/e-mail addressees,
Parents, Grand parents, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, friends.
>
> Please pay special attention not only to what your kids watch on TV
and in movie theaters and the music they listen to, but we must also
be alert regarding the books they read. Two particular books,
Conversations with God and Conversations with God for Teens, written
by Neale D. Walsch , sound harmless enough by their titles alone.
These books have been on the New York Times best sellers list for a
number of weeks, and these publications make truth of the statement,
"Don't judge a book by its cover/title."
>
> The author purports to answer various questions from kids using the
"voice of God". However, the "answers" that he gives are not
Bible-based and go against the very infallible word of God. For
instance (and I paraphrase), when a girl asks the question "Why am I a
lesbian?" His answer is that she was born that way because of genetics
(just as you were born right-handed, with blue eyes, etc.). Then he
tells her to go out and "celebrate" her differences. Another girls
poses the question "I am living with my boyfriend. My parents say that
I should marry him because I am living in sin. Should I marry him?"
> His reply is, "Who are you sinning against? Not me, because you have
done nothing wrong."
>
> Another question asks about God's forgiveness of sin. His reply "I
do not forgive anyone because there is nothing to forgive. There is no
such thing as right or wrong and that is what I have been trying to
tell everyone, do not judge people. People have chosen to judge one
another and this is wrong, because the rule is "'judge not lest ye be
judged.'"
>
> And the list goes on. Not only are these books the false doctrine of
devils, but in some instances even quote (in error) the Word of God.
These books (and others like it) are being sold to school children
(The Scholastic Book Club) , and we need to be aware of what is being
fed to our children. Our children are under attack. So I pray that you
be sober and vigilant about teaching your children the Word of God,
and guarding their exposure to worldly mediums, because our adversary,
the Devil, roams about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour (1
Peter 5:8). And how many of us know that lions usually hunt for the
slowest, and weakest and YOUNGEST of its prey.
>
> Pass this on to every Believer you know. God bless! And, if in
doubt, look at the books yourself.
>
> Gal 6:9 Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due
season, if we don't give up.

16 Laws Of Godly Relationships

We-Are-In-Christ-Arm

16 LAWS OF GODLY RELATIONSHIPS

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. An he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross....We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ. (Col 1:15-20,28).
Life is all about our relationships; first of all with God, and then with each other and everyone else we meet. We must know the basis for our relationships in order to understand how we should relate to God and to each other. The first few chapters of Rick Warren's book "The Purpose Driven Life" provide a good summary; here are the main points:
It all starts with God - "Everything got started in him and finds its purpose in him." (Col 1:16) Without God, life makes no sense.
You are not an accident - "I am your creator, you were in my care even before you were born." (Is 44:2) God never does anything accidentally, and he never makes mistakes.
What drives your life? - Guilt? Resentment? Anger? Fear? Materialism? Need for approval? "You, Lord, give perfect peace to those who keep their purpose firm and put their trust in you." (Is 26:3)
We are made to last forever - "This world is fading away, along with everything it craves. But if you do the will of God, you will live forever. (I John 2:17)
Seeing life from God's view - "What is your life?" (James 4:14) A circus? A minefield? A roller coaster? A puzzle? A symphony? A journey? A dance? A carousel? A party? A race? A marathon? A battle? A game? Life is a test, a trust and a temporary assignment. "Unless you are faithful in small matters, you won't be faithful in large ones." (Luke 16:10)
So if our life on earth is only temporary and is a preparation for eternity - and scripture calls it a test - How is our life to be graded?
Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent (John 17:3).
God is love (1 John 4:16).
‘Love the Lord you God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind', and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself' (Luke 10:27).
Who is my neighbor? (Luke 10:29).
And now I will show you the most excellent way (1 Cor. 12:31).
Life is all about knowing God, experiencing his love through our relationships with others. We can't experience God's love without knowing God. We can't know God without sharing his love to everyone around us (everyone we meet is a neighbor). God knew we are incapable of experiencing and sharing his love without help, so he came in the body of Jesus to show us how to experience and share his love - and to have eternal life.
1 Cor 13 is an excellent description of what God's love is. Love must have an object to be expressed. God demonstrated his love for us by coming in the body of Jesus and sacrificing his life on the cross. Jesus' life was a demonstration of God's love, and we can see every attribute of love described in 1 Cor 13 manifested in the life of Christ. Love is not an abstract concept, it is the nature of God himself. We should model our relationships with others on how Jesus demonstrated throughout his life. 1 Cor 13 describes the nature of Godly relationships:
Love is:
1. Patient - keeping a good disposition even when others are demanding and we have other things to do.
2. Kind - Affectionate, gentle, considerate - helping when you don't need to, when the other person cannot return the favor.
3. Does not envy - We can rejoice when someone else is blessed without feeling like we deserved it more than they.
4. Does not boast - When we call attention to ourselves, we are claiming credit for what we should acknowledge as God's grace and mercy.
5. Not proud - Pride is self-righteousness - pride is setting ourselves above others.
6. Not rude - When we are condescending, offensive or discourteous, we are saying "I don't need to talk with you - you aren't worthy of my attention!"
7. Not self-seeking - When our motive is "what's in it for me?" we are placing the other's welfare second to our own wants.
8. Not easily angered - It is possible to be angry and manifest God's love (Jesus & the moneychangers) but if we are easily angered, we are selfishly wanting everything our own way and reacting badly when we don't get what we want.
Love:
9. Keeps no record of wrongs - God has forgiven us of every sin we've confessed to him - how can we not forgive others?
10. Does not delight in evil - People will often cause harm to others to accomplish some goal ("corporate ladder"), and in the process deceive others to hide their actions. Love has no part in this.
11. Rejoices with the truth - When we have nothing to hide, we can be totally open with others - it is then we can rejoice with the truth.
12. Always protects - Love quenches the darts of the enemy. When we hear of accusations against a brother or sister, our response should be to protect, i.e. "I don't think we have all the information to judge this situation."
13. Always trusts - Love isn't suspicious, love has faith in others, even when they've let us down before. Jesus said to forgive "seventy times seven" times.
14. Always hopes - Love always believes for the best, even when we've not experienced the "best" many times before.
15. Always perseveres - Love withstands adversity. Love doesn't give up - ever.
16. Never fails - We aren't guaranteed happy endings. John the Baptist was beheaded, Jesus was crucified, most of the apostles were martyred. But, God is eternal, God is love, so there is no end to God's love. God's love will carry us through any situation, even when we don't like the outcome.
God came to us in the body of Jesus to show us how to experience and manifest his love and have a relationship with himself. We can't do it without God. But with the help of the Holy Spirit, we can learn to experience and manifest God's love just like Jesus did.
Love is the core of having Godly relationships, both with our heavenly Father and with everyone we meet (our neighbors).
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, help me to follow your example and share God's love with each person I meet today. Help me to love you with all my heart, all my soul, all my mind and all my strength-and help me to show your love to each person I contact today.Amen. catcmo2006

Beautiful picture

I realy like this picture.

better safe than sorry Tips for Safety

Crucial

Because of recent abductions

in daylight hours,refresh yourself

of these things to do

in an emergency situation...

This is for you,

and for you to share

with your wife,

your children,

everyone you know.

After reading these 9 crucial tips,

forward them to someone you care about.

It never hurts to be careful

in this crazy world we live in.

1 Tip from Tae Kwon Do:

The elbow

is the strongest point

on your body.

If you are close enough to use it,

do!

2. Learned this from a tourist guide

in New Orleans.

If a robber asks

for your wallet and/or purse,

DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM.

Toss it away from you....

chances are

that he is more interested

in your wallet and/or purse

than you,

and he will go

for the wallet/purse.

RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!

3. If you are ever thrown

into the trunk of a car,

kick out the back tail lights

and stick your arm out the hole

and start waving like crazy.

The driver won't see you,

but everybody else will.

This has saved lives.

4. Women have a tendency

to get into their cars after shopping,

eating, working, etc.,

and just sit (doing their checkbook,

or making a list, etc.

DON'T DO THIS!)

The predator

will be watching you,

and this is the perfect opportunity

for him to get in

on the passenger side,

put a gun to your head,

and tell you where to go.

AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR,

LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.

a. If someone

is in the car

with a gun

to your head

DO NOT DRIVE OFF,

repeat:

DO NOT DRIVE OFF!

Instead gun the engine

and speed into anything,

wrecking the car.

Your Air Bag will save you.

If the person is

in the back seat

they will get the worst of it.

As soon as the car crashes

bail out and run.

It is better than having them

find your body

in a remote location.

5 A few notes about getting

into your car in a parking lot,

or parking garage:

A.) Be aware:

look around you,

look into your car,

at the passenger side floor,

and in the back seat

B..) If you are parked next to a big van,

enter your car from the passenger door.

Most serial killers attack their victims

by pulling them into their v

Are You ready for the Lords coming

Are you ready for my coming saith the Lord or do you doubt that I am returning quickly for a bride without spot or wrinkle.
Get ready my children and cast off your worries and your fears and let me motivate you saith the Lord to what you are supposed to be pondering on.
Are you letting your light shine before others my children as I have called you to d o or do you shun away from the work I have given you because of fear saith the Lord.
Let me guide you and lead you. Be like Ruth who said I will go and do and be and then as you do lift up your hands and say send me to those who need a touch of your hand father and send me now as I want you to be Lord over everything in my life.
Remember that when you were a baby and your mothers took care of you and now its your turn to take care of the babies who need more of me in their days.
Some of you think you don't have the time to just pray for others but as you do take the time then I will give you peace and joy in me as you prepare for my coming back
There are so many of you that have lost loved ones and you are there to pray and intercede for them to be won in but you my children are to woo them by love as you read and study my word how I equip you for what I call you to do saith the Lord
So be obedient and win the souls to me saith the Lord and let me do a revival in you. Come out of your carnal negative spirit and let me flow in your life to be the children that I have called you to be and again my children walk in my love for others and you will be blessed saith the Lord.
Prophetess Rowena Welch
Please pray for this ministry and others on In Jesus and pray for all single parents at this particular time for school things to come as we know on single parents it is hard to stand unless they have others interceding and lifting them up. So lift them up and if you know a single parent call them and pray for them. If you know a widow or elderly pers on go and minister the Lords grace to them and his love.
Bind up the strongman when you do and watch how much joy you can have as you minister to each other and older people.
If you need prayer let me know and I will stand in the gap for you finanically physically mentally and emotionally.
Love each one of you in the Lord.
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prision to them who are bound, to proclaim they are accepted no matter who they are and no matter what they believe in, to comfort all who mourn, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy in place of fear and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that ALL are called the trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified

A God of Grace

John 1:14-18
Imagine receiving a big, beautifully-wrapped gift when there is no special occasion. The sender simply chose to do this for you. Inside the package is something very special. Eagerly, you read the card to discover who could have been so generous. To your amazement, you learn the giver is someone you have been avoiding and to whom you have been unkind! What do you do?
This gift giving is a picture of the Father’s grace in sending His Son Jesus to earth for us. There was no special occasion. God simply had the desire to do it. The present arrived, despite the fact we were either passively ignoring the Lord or actively rebelling against Him. This is grace… God’s goodness and kindness extended to those who do not deserve it and have no possible way to earn it.
In the Son, we see the fullness of God’s kindness revealed. First, Jesus has fully met all the requirements of divine law by living a perfect life on earth. Second, because of His sinless life as a man, He was qualified to pay the cost for our rebellious ways. Third, Christ sacrificed His life on the cross to pay for all our sins— past, present, and future. Fourth, when we receive Him as our Savior, God counts Jesus’ death as payment for all we have done wrong. Fifth, upon our salvation, Christ’s perfect life is counted as our own. His righteousness becomes ours through faith.(Romans 4:5)
What will you do with God’s gift of grace? Will you refuse it, or say, “Thank You” and take steps to know Him? And if you already do know Christ, have you been taking Him for granted?

FOOTPRINTS

Imagine you and the Lord Jesus are walking down the road together. For much of the way, the Lord's footprints go along steadily, consistently, rarely varying the pace

But your footprints are a disorganized stream of zigzags, starts, stops, turnarounds, circles, departures, and returns.

For much of the way, it seems to go like this, but gradually your footprints come more in line with the Lord's, soon paralleling His consistently.

You and Jesus are walking as true friends!

This seems perfect, but then an interesting thing happens: Your footprints that once etched the sand next to Jesus' are now walking precisely in His steps.

Inside His larger footprints are your smaller ones, you and Jesus are becoming one.

This goes on for many miles, but gradually you notice another change. The footprints inside the large footprints seem to grow larger.

Eventually they disappear altogether. There is only one set of footprints. They have become one.

This goes on for a long time, but suddenly the second set of footprints is back. This time it seems even worse! Zigzags all over the place. Stops. Starts. Gashes in the sand. A variable mess of prints.

You are amazed and shocked.

Your dream ends. Now you pray:

"Lord, I understand the first scene, with zigzags and fits. I was a new Christian; I was just learning. But You walked on through the storm and helped me learn to walk with You."

"That is correct."

"And when the smaller footprints were inside of Yours, I was actually learning to walk in Your steps, following You very closely."

"Very good.. You have understood everything so far."

When the smaller footprints grew and filled in Yours, I suppose that I was becoming like You in every way."

"Precisely."

"So, Lord, was there a regression or something? The footprints separated, and this time it was worse than at first."
There is a pause as the Lord answers, with a smile in His voice

"You didn't know? It was then that we danced!"

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: A time to weep, a time to laugh, a time to mourn, and a time to dance.

Ecclesiastes 3:1,4.

It's not WHAT you have in your life, but Whom you have in your life that counts... Think about that.

I ASKED GOD

I asked for a flower,

He gave me a garden.


I asked for a tree,

He gave me a forest.


I asked for a river,

He gave me an ocean.


&nb sp; I asked for friends,

He gave me "YOU."

Apostles Speaks Boldly to All Others

Acts 4 (King James Version)

Acts 4

1And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,

2Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

3And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.

4Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

5And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,

6And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.

7And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?

8Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

9If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;

10Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

11This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

12Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

13Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

14And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

15But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,

16Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.

17But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.

18And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

19But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.

20For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

21So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done.

22For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.

23And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.

24And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:

25Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

26The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

27For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,

28For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.

29And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,

30By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

31And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

32And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

33And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

34Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

35And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

36And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus,

37Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.

THE BOTTOM LINE:

Peter and John imprisoned.

The apostles preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead. It includes all the happiness of the future state; this they preached through Jesus Christ, to be had through him only. Miserable is their case, to whom the glory of Christ's kingdom is a grief; for since the glory of that kingdom is everlasting, their grief will be everlasting also. The harmless and useful servants of Christ, like the apostles, have often been troubled for their work of faith and labour of love,

when wicked men have escaped. And to this day instances are not wanting, in which reading the Scriptures, social prayer, and religious conversation meet with frowns and checks. But if we obey the precepts of Christ, he will support us. (Ac 4:5-14)

The apostles boldly testify to Christ.

Peter being filled with the Holy Ghost, would have all to understand, that the miracle had been wrought by the name, or power, of Jesus of Nazareth, the Messiah, whom they had crucified; and this confirmed their testimony to his resurrection from the dead, which proved him to be the Messiah. These rulers must either be saved by that Jesus whom they had crucified, or they must perish for ever. The name of Jesus is given to men of every age and nation, as that whereby alone believers

are saved from the wrath to come. But when covetousness, pride, or any corrupt passion, rules within, men shut their eyes, and close their hearts, in enmity against the light; considering all as ignorant and unlearned, who desire to know nothing in comparison with Christ crucified. And the followers of Christ should act so that all who converse with them, may take knowledge that they have been with Jesus. That makes them holy, heavenly, spiritual, and cheerful, and raises them above this world.

(Ac 4:15-22)

Prayer: confess I am not afraid! :"Though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death I WILL FEAR NO EVIL!!! I FEAR NOT for thou art WITH
ME. I am not dismayed for thou art my God. Thou art HELPING me! Thou
art STRENGTHENING me! Thou art upholding me with the right hand of
thy!" Power that You have given me. "Thou hast not given me the spirit
of fear, but of power, love and sound mind. I have the SPIRIT OF POWER
lN ME! I have the SPIRIT OF LOVE IN ME! I have the SPIRIT OF A SOUND
MIND IN ME!"
"Over me is the BLOOD OF THE LAMB! The Lord goes BEFORE
ME! Jesus is IN me! The angel of the Lord encamps AROUND me!
UNDERNEATH me are the everlasting arms of God! AND GOODNESS AND MERCY
FOLLOW ME ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE! Hallelujah!! FEAR HAS NO PLACE IN
MY LIFE!" catcmo2006
