In II Kings 1 there is a story about King ### and the accident that took him to his sickbed. What stood out at me the most in this story was Elijah's faith. He gave a word about King ### that he would never leave his sickbed because he sought Baal-zebub god of ### instead of God. ### did not like that word and sent a captain and 50 men out to retrieve Elijah. He did this 2x and each time Elijah called down fire from heaven. That is what stood out to me --it was Elijah's faith to call down fire from heaven on them not once but twice and expect without hesitation and it happened. A captain and 50 of the king’s men were out to retrieve him for the king and he was not scared but had complete faith in God. He had so much faith and...

GOD OF RESTORATION May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. Psalm 19:14 What kind of example are you going to be this year in 2014? Are you going to radiate the power and strength of your Lord each day? Are you going to tell others, as the Lord opens the door, including your family, co-workers, and your church family, that God hates divorce and that He wants to heal, rebuild, and restore marriages? Do you really believe in the transformation of your husband or wife and your marriage? David did in the Old Testament. He knew the power of God's love and forgiveness as God forgave David of adultery and murder. Are you battling sins in your life? Yes, you as a...

ONE SECRET TO MARRIAGE RESTORATION It is winter in Florida. That means a 75 degree temperature in the day can be followed by nights in the fifties. Between the two extremes, many days there is rain. It is the kind of weather that often brings early morning fog. When that happens, motorists turn on the headlights and wipers and slowly inch their way toward their destination. People are always so careful in the fog. There is another fog that you may encounter this morning. At times it can be so thick and so dangerous that it threatens not only those who are standing for the restoration of their marriages, but their Christian walk, as well as the reputation of others. That "FOG" is the "Foolishness of Gossip." The dictionary defines gossip...

GOLF – God Our Loving Father My husband loves to play golf and I was looking for an acronym to describe my stand and found ‘God Our Loving Father’ on the internet. God is awesome! My husband invests a lot of time and money on equipment, membership, and friendships. He also spends hours cleaning his clubs, ensuring they are in pristine condition. This is how our stand can be. We invest time by praying, fasting and reading God’s Word. The Bible is our mighty weapon, our golf club. Jesus is our golf buddy, our loving Father and Friend. He washed us with His precious blood so we could be pristine. We are His biggest investment. He paid a high price for us and He wants so much for us to spend quality time with Him. My stand has sometimes...

Hello every one I hope and pray your faith is still strong and your walk with God has opened your eyes to many new things in your life. As I was sitting here trying to decide what to write about and going over some scriptures about Paul's Damascus road experience and planning on writing about that, the Holy Spirit came upon me and really wanted me to write about Idols in our life. God's word is very clear about idol worship and how we put no other god before Him, as it says in Exodus 20: 1-5 And God spoke all these words, saying, "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. "You shall have no other gods before me. "You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of...

Take heed to yourselves: If your brother trespass against you, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him. And if he trespass against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to you, saying, I repent; you must forgive him. And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith. And the Lord said, If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you could say unto this sycamine tree, be plucked up by the root, and be planted in the sea; and it would obey you. Luke 17:3-6 Everything Jesus said was of great significance. This scripture may be familiar to you, but there are two things Jesus spoke of in this study on forgiveness that are especially worth noting. The sycamine tree is known to have one of the deepest root...

SANCTITY OF LIFE SUNDAY For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. Psalm 139:13-16 Do you know that today is Sanctity of Human Life Sunday? May you and I pray for all women who have been pregnant and did not know what to do and thought abortion was the only answer. “Lord, I pray that you will send someone who has hope for any teenager or young woman or a wife...

A Standers Affirmation I AM STANDING FOR THE HEALING OF MY MARRIAGE!... I will not give up, give in, give out or give over 'til that healing takes place. I made a vow, I said the words, I gave the pledge, I gave a ring, I took a ring, I gave myself, I trusted GOD, and said the words, and meant the words... in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in good times and in bad...so I am standing NOW, and will not sit down, let down, slow down, calm down, fall down, look down or be down 'til the breakdown is torn down! I refuse to put my eyes on outward circumstances, or listen to prophets of doom, or buy into what is trendy, worldly, popular, convenient, easy, quick, thrifty, or...
