Powerful Prayers Make Powerful Saints

Dear God, I want to be like Paul. I want to reach the lost and help those who are stumbling to get back up again and walk boldly and audaciously for you. 

You sent your Son, Jesus, to die for all mankind. He was mocked, scoffed, stripped down naked, beaten so badly, that in Isaiah we know that His appearance was so disfigured. Beyond that of any human being and his form marred beyond human likeness. 

He had 6" spikes driven through His hands and feet. He hung on a cross for all my sins. 

Dear God, help me not to take Jesus and what He did for granted. 

Let me no longer tread "lightly" on the blood that lay at the foot of the cross. But let me take up that cross and follow HIM!! 

Let the things of this world no longer have a hold on me. I am a blood-bought child of the living God. 

I will do what I am required to do and this is to HONOR you!! 

Let me do what you require of me. To reach the lost. To share the gospel. To love hurting people! 

I ask all of this in your holy, holy name Amen!!

Date Setting and High Watch Times

I have struggled with posting this blog for a while now. I knew that many people, should I vocalize my biblical opinion, would leave my YouTube and Rumble channels. In my flesh, I was like, oh no. I cannot have that. However, the Holy Spirit gave me a strong dose of conviction. He reminded me of Galatians 1:10.  For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ. I am a bondservant of Christ. His slave. Therefore I do what He wants. I am finally " coming out ", and I could not be more at peace. God leads by peace. God also gives courage. I am leaning into that courage. It is challenging to stand against the very thing tens of thousands of people follow. Sincere they may be, however, they are deceived. They have joined forces with these YouTubers who continually pull news headlines into the bible and forcefully try to make it all fit. They give you the Jewish "f...

12-21-22 Maybe Today

We all seem to pass right by the first four verses in Luke. We get to the part when our savior, Jesus was born but have you taken time to study out the first four verses? This part seems to be omitted when telling the CHRIST mas story, or as we pagans say, the birth of Christ.  Why do we, as followers of Christ, believe that a sinless man came to earth and that His sole purpose was to die on a cross for all the sins of the world. Luke 1:1-4 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile an account of the things accomplished among us, just as they were handed down to us by those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the word, it seemed fitting for me as well, having investigated everything carefully from the beginning, to write it out for you in consecutive order, most excellent Theophilus; so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught . WOW!! Did you catch it? As Luke penned this to Theophilus, Luke also explained to him that h...

Not who I used to be

I grew up in New York. I attended an awesome church, Smithtown Gospel Tabernacle ("SGT"). I recall many things from that church. Sunday School, Pastor Bob and his awesome wife, Sue, their amazing kids, the youth group, my friends, and how can I ever forget... the orange  Chevy Vega   that my mom would take us to church in.  To top it off, she would pull right upfront.   I was sooooo embarrassed!! I thrived in that church. At five, I remember holding tightly to a picture of Jesus in Sunday School. I recall how much I felt loved by Him from hearing the teachings from my Sunday School teacher.  Jesus loved me, this I knew!   I loved Jesus with all my heart. I couldn't wait for Sunday. I wanted to hear more about Jesus and get to know Him. Never knew love like that.  I never said a sinners prayer, I just knew I let Jesus save me.   Belief is all I needed. I did not grow up in a Christian home. My mom sent us to VBS one summer. A friend of mo...
