His Book of Adventures

His Book of Adventures As I mentioned a few weeks ago, my wife and I are moving to Lyndonville, Vermont to help teens find their identity in Christ as we find ours. As we help them grow in the Lord we are ourselves will be growing ever closer to our Father. Even now, God has been preparing us for this new chapter in His Book of Adventures called, “Our Lives”. He is working in us like never before. He has called us to start fresh and new, and to be completely in His grip of care. First, He called us out of our comfort-zone to a ranch that is completely out of our element. This was to prepare us for yet another move. This move is to a place of beauty, of ministry, of discipleship, of complete immersion in His word, His Glory, His Fulness. Father God, the Author of His Book of Adventures has given us one great adventure after another. And we can’t wait to see how this one is going to be played out. It’s already getting interesting. It is amazing what He has alr...

An Easter Story

An Easter Story As they took Him to the Pavement, to the scourging post, Satan, and his evil disciples were rejoicing with wicked excitement. As the demons guided every blow of the Roman guard to the body of Christ They shouted in vicious victory, as Jesus shouted in agonizing pain. The demons leaped on the unholy crowd, inciting a dark and evil riot, They hurled blasphemies, cursing, and unimaginable hate towards the Savior. And all the time, Satan is holding his side in laughter Saying, “I have won! I have won! I have won!” The demons clung to the whip as it tore open the flesh of Christ They shouted, “Again! Again! Again!” as the guard flung the whip at Jesus The flesh of Jesus hung in strands from His body Exposing organs, bones and tissue The Father held back His mighty army, for they were ready for war. They stood back in disbelief thinking, “Why is our King allowing this to happen?” With swords drawn and ready for the command, The Father...

The Achievement:

The Achievement: There are those who say the crucifixion of Jesus was a tragedy. I say it was an achievement, an accomplishment, a plan played out, prophecy fulfilled. If Jesus would not have been crucified the way He was, the Old Testament would have been nothing more than fairy tales, and God the Creator of all . . . a liar. If Jesus had not been crucified we would be damned. There is no way we could live under the law and God the Father and the Son knew that. Also if Jesus had not died on the cross for our sins, we could not call Him, Christ, Savior, Redeemer or Lord. Jesus prayed to the Father, “If there’s another way, let’s take it. But not my will, Yours.” There was no other way that we could be saved. Jesus made sure He was crucified on the day He was. The Pharisees didn’t want to kill Him on a Feast day, but Jesus made sure He was. At the last supper, Jesus tells Judas to go do what he has to, that is, get the ball rolling. In the garden when Judas shows up with t...

A Declaration in Daniel 1:6

A Declaration in Daniel 1:6 Five men are mentioned in this verse. Let’s fined out the meaning of their names and see if there is a message for us. Dan 1:6 Now among them from the sons of Judah were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. Judah = ( P raise! ), the praise of the Lord; Daniel = (judgment of God), God is my J udge Hananiah = ( Beloved by the Lord ) , Yah has favored Mishael = ( W ho is what God is! ), Who is as God! Azariah = ( The LORD my H elp ), Yah has helped. Dan 1:6 Now among them from the sons of Judah ( Praise! ) were Daniel ( God is my judge ) , Hananiah ( Beloved by the Lord ), Mishael ( Who is as God is ) and Azariah ( The LORD my help ) . Praise! God is my J udge. The Beloved by the Lord, Who is as God is ! ( I s ) The LORD my H elp. A Declaration. I Praise! Because, God is my Judge. The Beloved by the Lord, W ho is what God is! He is the LORD my Help. Mat 17:5 While he was still speaking,...

Worship ‘til Heaven Shakes and the Earth Quakes

Worship ‘til Heaven Shakes and the Earth Quakes Sing unto Him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise. Psa 33:3 (KJV) I love this verse, because I love My music loud. Time and time again the Scriptures tell us to, shout to the Lord, cry out to the Lord, to celebrate with music and dance, and to sing New songs to the Lord. And yet, so many Churches today are singing the same hymns that were sung a hundred years ago, fifty years ago, 25 years ago. Now, there’s nothing wrong with that, if we mix it with lively, skilfully played new songs. Let’s look at this verse closely. The Hebrew word for Sing is, shiyr meaning; to sing The Hebrew word for New is, chadash meaning; new, new thing, fresh The Hebrew word for Song is, shiyr meaning; a song or, to sing The Hebrew word for Play is, nagan Meaning; 1. (properly) to thrum, i.e. beat a tune with the fingers. 2. (especially) to play on a stringed instrument. 3. (hence, generally) to make music. ...
