Reflections
Greetings and blessings to all of you. In the Book of Ecclesiastes Chapter 3 it says, “there is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven; a time to be born and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to uproot; and time to kill and a time to heal; a time to tear down and a time to build; a time to weep and a time to laugh…” And time goes on. And guess who is in charge of time? God. It comes down to this. When we say that God is Sovereign, it means that he is the Master, and we are the servants. He is the Potter; we are the clay. ...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. God is. God Is Sovereign. God Is In Control all of the time. Period. During this point in our culture this is no time to wring our hands and mourn. When the darkness grows deeper, the light must shine that much brighter. This is the time to exalt the Person and the work of Jesus Christ. There is no need for us to worry about our situation. We serve a God who is patient, sympathetic, compassionate, faithful and full of wisdom; seeing and knowing the beginning to the very end. In Psalm 135:5-6 The Book says, “I know the Lord is great, that our L...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. Our current climate is one of divisiveness and hate. That also includes within the Body of Christ. With the election being finalized pretty soon; have you noticed all the contention? Where is the Love? Christ has told us to love our enemies. How can that manifest itself when we are in a resentful unforgiving, I’m right… you are wrong attitude? Agape love is not a mere suggestion, but a command. In I John 4:7 God said, “Dear friends, let us love one another.” Love is the very DNA of every child of God. When we bec...

In Proverbs 29:2 it says, “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when a wicked man rules, the people groan.” It has been said that some of us are ambivalent about our government. Therefore, you may have decided not to vote. But when you think about the activities sanctioned by the government like judicial decisions relating to unborn infants, pornography, sexual values, immigration issues, high taxes or misuse of money; you may change your mind. You might have chosen the road of apathy and noninvolvement. You may t...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. There is a song written by Burt Bacharach and song by Dionne Warwick in the early late 60s early 70s. “What the world needs now is Love sweet Love it’s the only thing that there’s just too little of; What the world needs now is Love sweet Love no not just for some but for everyone. That Love the writer is talking about I believe is Jesus. In I John 7 it says “Beloved let us love one another, for love is of God, and everyone who loves is born of God, and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God, FOR GOD IS LOVE”. We liv...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. There is a question that needs to be asked in the times we are living in and that is ARE WE A SELF-DECEIVED PEOPLE? Do we know our true Spiritual condition? We may look good to others as we pose for family pictures (church/at home) but that is just the outward appearance. The heart condition is not caught by the camera. God confronted the church of Laodicea. In I Sam.16:7 “For the Lord sees not as man sees. For man looks on the outward appearance but the Lord looks on the heart.” God said, “I know your works that you are neit...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. GOD IS IN CONTROL! We have just completed the first debate of the upcoming election. My thoughts.... God has always orchestrated world events since creation. Do you think He did know about David and Bathsheba and the murder that ensued? God knew the Messiah must come through David and through David’s son Solomon. With that; God still allowed this behavior. Do you think God did not know about Solomon? After giving him riches and wisdom, Solomon married over 500 wives in order to gain political power and those ladies would have him worshipping o...

Being part of this culture madness as a believer the question came to me to ponder…Can God bless America without compromising His reputation as a Holy God? No, He cannot! Maybe we need to ask God today…. Lord Jesus what do we need to do to be blessed? Many of us prefer to get “blessed” without any conditions. But God has conditions; for us individually and the nation. Morality is important to God. God has said, “Not everyone who says to me, Lord Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the w...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. I read a statement concerning the moral decline of our nation. It said, “if the moral fiber of this country continues to erode, and people continue to ignore the Bible, then the demise of this country is only a matter of time.” Do you believe that? Think for a minute. What is the basis for morality in our nation? It has become “you do you...and I do me” or “whatever is right for you...do it” or “if everybody seems okay with it….it must be okay” Saints, do you see the problem in t...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. It has been said, “Our nation is adrift. We are like a ship without a rudder, compass, or even a goal. We do not know where we are going because we have forgotten from where we have come.” God is the foundation of the world; but do you realize that whole generations of Americans have grown up without the foggiest idea of what God has to say about government…the institution that wants to control us? God had and have a lot to say about government. God knows that mankind is evil and needs certain restraints because of the evil ...
