You are the light of the world




You were once darkness, but now you are light in
the Lord. Live as children of light for the fruit of
the light consists in all goodness, righteousness
and truth.
( Ephesians 5:8-10 *NIV )


As Childern of Light our actions should reflect our faith, and shine
brightly to others. We should never be afraid to show our faith no
matter where we are, or whom we are with. After all we are beacons
of God's Love shining out into dark World that is searching for love
in all the wrong places. A World that is full of people without love,
hope and faith.

Therefore our Savior Jesus Christ stressed this truth in the
Sermon on the Mount, for He said, "You are the light
of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under
a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it
gives light to everyone in the house.
( Matthew 5:14-15 )

Further, you probably have known people that
seem to light up a room when they enter, well, "In the same
way, let your light shine before men, that they may
see your good deeds and praise your Father
in Heaven." ( Matthew 5:16 )

Now you may be thinking "my light is a dim one." Well, I believe
that our dim light is magnified by the immense mirror of God's Love.
Thus it truly shines brightly when we tell others about our Heavenly
Father, and show goodness toward the people in our lives! So try
it today and see for yourself, for if everyone would light just one
little candle what a bright World this would be!

Amen

ONE MINUTE EACH NIGHT.......PRAY




God has given us the power to change the outcome of everything that is happening in America,
including the Presidential election
If we do this
ONE MINUTE EACH NIGHT...

Do you believe we can believe God’s Word? Call upon His name, then stand back and watch His wonders to behold. This scripture gives us, as Christians, ownership of this land and the ability to call upon God to heal it. I challenge you to do so. We have never been more desperate than now for God to heal our land.

This election is the scariest I remember in my lifetime. 2 Chronicles 7:14...'If My people, which are called by My Name shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.'

During WWII, there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every night at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England, its people and peace. This had an amazing effect as bombing stopped. There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in America.

The United States of America and our citizens need prayer more than ever!!! If you would like to participate: each evening at

9:00 PM Eastern Time;
8:00 PM Central;
7:00 PM Mountain;
6:00 PM Pacific;
STOP WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING

and spend one minute praying for the safety of the United States, our troops, our citizens, for peace in the world, the upcoming election, that the Bible will remain the basis for the laws governing our land and that Christianity will grow in the U.S.

If you know anyone who would like to participate, please pass this along. Someone said if people really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have.

Thank you. Please pass this on to anyone who you think will want to join us. God Bless You!!!

The LORD is my helper




When you pass through the waters, I will be
with you; And through the rivers, they shall
not overflow you. When you walk through
the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall
the flame scorch you.
( Isaiah 43:2 *NKJV )

There are times in our life when we find ourselves in
difficult situations. Times when our faith is put to the test.
We may even feel that God has abandoned us, and that
we are all alone.

When you feel that way remember that it is written;
"I will never leave you nor forsake you." So we may
boldly say: "The LORD is my helper; I will not fear.
What can man do to me?" ( Hebrews 13:5-6 )

Therefore, when you pass through the waters of difficulty,
and the flames of distress, know that God is always there
with you. For, The LORD is good, A stronghold in the
day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him.
( Nahum 1:7 )

So, always remember that you are walking,
hand in hand, with your Heavenly Father when those difficult
times arrive, and that He Loves You very much because
you are one of His beloved children!

Now, have a Great Weekend. Amen.

My Thoughts and Prayers for Barack Obama




My Thoughts.....
These are my thoughts regardless of what you think or say. I am behind Barack Obama, 1st and foremost because he is a man of color (A BLACK MAN) and a man of GOD second, As a Child/Man of God, he is the light of the world, we all are. It seems as though I have known Barack long before he became a political figure, so what I post on this blog is for me an those who are in support of him. Thirdly, This country needs a HOPE and Obama is hope for a lot of people regardless of race. Some of us think he can actually make a change and are willing to let him show us.

If you are not in support of him you can keep your comments to yourself because they will not be posted here, they will be deleted. Don't try to hinder or persuade me to change, because I won't try to persuade you, it is a lesson you will have to learn on your own. We can still co-exist in this world together.

This post go hand and hand with my post of "Let Your Light Shine"

if we walk in the light as He is in the light,
we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of
Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
( 1 JOHN 1:7 ) So it's a win, win, situation indeed

My Prayers....
Dear God, I pray for optimum health, wisdom, mental clarity and political prosperity for Barack Obama, and for his protection, as he seeks to become our President!

Amen.

Let your light so shine




Do all things without complaining and disputing, that
you may become blameless and harmless, children
of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and
perverse generation, among whom you shine as
lights in the world,
( Philippians 2:14-15 *NKJV )


As a Child of God, You are the light of the world.
( Matthew 5:14 ) For you were once darkness, but now
you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.
( Ephesians 5:8 )

When we walk in God's Light our hearts become reflectors
of His Great Light. We become a beacon to others especially
those who are still living in darkness.

So, Let your light so shine before men, that they
may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
For by doing so we plant seeds of faith in those who have
lost their way, and I say to you that likewise there will be
more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over
ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.
( Matthew 5:16 ) & ( Luke 15:7 )

Further, if we walk in the light as He is in the light,
we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of
Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
( 1 JOHN 1:7 ) So it's a win, win, situation indeed.

Therefore, Arise, shine ; For your light has come!
And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. Amen.
( Isaiah 60:1)
