Miser : A person who lives poor so that he can die rich.

 

The Lord is saying.   You are seeing much activity of the enemy. He has been attacking on many fronts. Yes there is a reason why and you need only rejoice, because if he's getting desperate you can be sure that you are threatening the kingdom of darkness. Keep standing, keep loving, keep rejoicing. I am with you and I am walking by your side. All is well, do not react negatively.

Adventures in India

Tuesday Evening 15th December

Brother Joshua in his church

We prayed for a lot of people this night. Many of them had been cursed by witchdoctors. It was great to cut them free on the basis that Jesus took our curses so that we may enter into the blessings of Abraham. As a Christian we never need to be afraid of superstition, voodoo, witchdoctors or satanism. The power of Christ, His blood and His Name are more than sufficient to overcome..

 

Read the Brother Raju's wonderful testimony
of how God used us to
pray for a dying man

"Stand" by Donnie McClurkin

What do you do
When you've done all you can
And it seems like it's never enough
And what do you say
When your friends turn away
And you're all alone?
Tell me, what do you give
When you've given your all and
Seems like you can't make it through?

Well, you just stand
When there's nothing left to do
You just stand
Watch the Lord see you through
Yes, after you've done all you can
You just stand

Tell me, how do you handle
The guilt of your past?
Tell me, how do you deal with
the shame?
And how can you smile
While your heart has been broken
And filled with pain?
Tell me, what do you give
When you've given your all
Seems like you can't make it through?
Child......

Well, you just stand
When there's nothing left to do
You just stand
Watch the Lord see you through
Yes, after you've done all you can
You just stand

You just stand and be sure
Be not entangled in that bondage again
You just stand and endure
God has a purpose, yes, God has a plan

Tell me, what do you do
When you've done all you can
And it seems like you can't make
it through?
Child, you just stand......
Don't you dare give up
Through the storm, through the rain
THrough the hurt, through the pain

Don't you bow and don't you bend
Don't give up, don't give in

Hold on, just be strong
God will step in and it won't be long
After you've done all you can.....

After you gone through the hurt
After you gone through the pain
After you gone through the storm
After you gone through the rain

Prayed and cried.....

After you've done all you can
You just stand

Virus?

Last night my laptop went berserk. I kept getting messages that I had a virus on my computer, and that my data and passwords were endangered. I was instructed to quickly download some material to solve this problem. However, my son Jan, computer technician had told me I must never download this stuff or I'm in trouble. When I took the laptop to him he told me I indeed had a virus and it was the virus that was trying to panic me into downloading its evil intentions. He told me to (you might need this information one day....) download Malware bytes and that would solve my problem. As I tried to, the virus kept coming up (looking like a genuine message) and 'warning' me and blocking me from downloading what was going to 'save' my laptop from its corruption . Cheek!!! Anyway I sorted it. (email me if you need advice).

But the real point of it all was, this morning I felt that there was a great lesson in this. Adam and Eve were told there was something wrong and lacking in their lives, and that they needed to take action to correct the deficiency. "Eat the apple and you'll be like God". Their life was perfect before they reacted. All was well, but they were told it could be better. Sometimes the enemy works in another way to try to make us fear and act in haste. He comes along and tells us we need to take drastic action, something is very wrong and unless we react its going to get worse.....

Hold it right there!!!!

If we react its going to get worse not better.

Thats the time to stand and declare that God is in control, that ALL IS WELL and go and ask God how to ACT instead of REACTING. We should never make a decision when experiencing a negative emotion.

Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand .

 

If we stand against the threat of the enemy we will come out stornger and freer than we were before.

Just Joking...

A church had to hire a new pastor. Over the protests of one vocal male member a woman was hired as the new senior pastor.

After the new pastor had been there a few weeks, a member of the congregation offered to take then new pastor fishing. The vocal objector reluctantly agreed to allow them to use his boat and to go along.

The trio got into the boat and motored out on the lake. When they got ready to fish, they realized that all their tackle had been left on the dock. One of the men commented that he guess they would just have to go back and get it.

The pastor said that wouldn't be necessary, and she got out of the boat and started walking across the water toward the dock.

The old grouch said, "See I told you we never should have hired that woman. She can't even swim!"
