All these people are going in the wrong direction. 50 years ago today a crowd of 600,00 people went to a rock concert in Watkins Glen, NY. Most of them, if not all, were going to an event not realizing that they were going to a place that could not help them find the way to eternal life.
There is only one way to spend eternity in Heaven.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6
Do you pray for your Pastor? Pastors have great responsibility. They have problems in their lives, just like all of us.
They have a family, that alone is is challenging. Wife, children, siblings and maybe aging parents. Then they have the congregation and take on the joys and sorrows of maybe hundreds of people. Not to mention the meetings, counseling and other events in the community they feel they have to attend.
Many pastors cannot deal with all the problems that come with being a Pastor. Please take a few minutes out of your busy schedule and pray for your pastor right now. If you know more than one pastor pray for them also. Pray that they will be filled with the Holy Spirit as they preach and teach.
Then pray that when you go to church you will have an open heart and a listening ear to hear what the man of God has to say.
The best thing a father can die for your children is to love your wife. Children need securely. If they see their father loving his wife, showing unity in love and discipline, they will feel secure and happy.
May all you Dads have a wonderful Father’s Day tomorrow. Make the day special by loving your wife and children.
God gave us the Pastor of our church to help us get through hard times. The Pastor officiates at our wedding, celebrates the birth of our children, prays with us in sickness and sorrows, and at the death of a loved one.
All the time having the same problems we have in his own family. He needs our prayers. Take a few minutes and pray for him today.
Pray he will have power of the Holy Spirit to preach the truth. Pray he will not be distracted by people or circumstances. Pray God will comfort him as he has the burden of his own but also takes the burdens of his whole congregation.
Most of all do not have roast preacher for lunch. Do not talk negatively about him or his family. Let us love our Pastor and show him our appreciation.
On the SOS Events display board there is a question. “Are you 50%, 75% or 100% sure if you died today you would go to Heaven?
That is an important question, but what if you leave out the first line? It would read, If you died today you would go to Heaven.
What is the difference? The sentence that asked the question makes a person wonder if they know they will go to Heaven and makes them think about wanting to know how to get there.
Leave that out and the whole meaning changes. Now it is telling the person reading it that if they die they will go to Heaven.
Words make a difference. Change even one word and the meaning can change. Leave a word out and the meaning can change. Even rearranging words can change the meaning .
The Bible has many versions today. Some of these versions change words and even meanings of what God wants us to know.
Study for yourself and see what God wants to say to you.
Jesus prayed often, and He gave us what we call the Lord’s prayer.
If you have difficulty finding something to pray about pray the prayer that God gave us. In that prayer is what we need every day.
We need food, we need forgiveness of our daily sins, we need to forgive others. Everything we need is in this prayer.
Most important of all we need to to honor our Heavenly Father in everything we do.
Once we start praying we will know what additional things we need to pray about.
This church in the photo looks empty and forsaken . Many churches, especially, the small ones die because the people are not faithful.
If circumstances don’t hinder you, go to your church. It is important to encourage the Pastor. You do not want to be part of your church door closing.
Another reason to go to a good Bible believing church is to grow in the knowledge of Jesus. Also, we need the fellowship of other believers.
