“Don’t put your Pastor on a pedestal where he can get knocked off, put him on your prayer list where he can be lifted up.”
As you go to church pray for your pastor. He needs the power of the Holy Spirit and encouragement.
D. L. Moody became a powerful evangelist because as he preached he had a group of people praying for him and thousands of people were saved though his ministry.
2 Thessalonians 1:11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. (Galatians 5:16 KJV)
If we are having a problem with temptation, there is only one way we can conquer that temptation. The Bible calls it the lust of the flesh.
We overcome temptation by walking in the spirit. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, the Holy Spirit comes and dwells in us.
Then we have a choice. We can listen to that sometimes still small voice, or we can ignore it.
To walk in the Spirit we must learn to listen to Him, then He will help us to turn from our temptation. He will make a way to escape. We must choose to take it.
The more we read the Bible, particularly prophecy, we realize that we are living in a time that Jesus may come to catch up (rapture) those of us who are saved.
What happens to the people who do not know Jesus as their Savior? Terrible time of suffering, pain and loss of everything unless they worship the anti-Christ. Once they do that they are doomed forever and will be cast into the lake of fire at the judgment along wit him and his demons.
The time to accept Jesus is now. Waiting is dangerous. None of us has any promise of tomorrow. Illness and accidents happen no matter what our age.
If you have a Sweetheart to share Valentines Day with, you are blessed, but if you do not have a Spouse or special someone you are still blessed. You have the One who loves you more than anyone possibly could. His name is Jesus. Have a blessed Valentines Day.
This time of year seems to have a lot of celebrations that focus on love. Weddings, engagements and anniversaries.
It is wonderful to see couples who love one another. Maybe you are one of the people who do not have that special someone in your life who loves you. You have been hurt, your spouse has died or deserted you.
The good news is you DO have someone who loves you and will never leave you. That person is Jesus. He loves you so much He died for you and He will never leave you or forsake you. If you have not accepted Him as your Savior, do it today.
1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
