August Rush

October 4, 2009 by Leave a Comment

There is a very interesting message in this movie titled “August Rush” starring Robin Williams that teaches us about the Spirit of God in what we can truly hear when we stop and listen to our hearts that sing a tune. Music plays a major roll in our society and our well being but far to often this is never properly understood in the Spirit of God and in the spirit of satan.

This movie contains a message of how to listen and what to listen for but there is one major element that they failed to acknowledge in the harmony of the Holy Spirit. If they were to apply this same basis and then completed it in glory to God then it would have had an impact that would created a revival in the Spirit of God through Jesus Christ.

Music can be heard all around us when we stop to listen but far too often few never figure this out. Harmony in the Spirit is a gift from God that uplifts us beyond man to hear the music in Gods beautiful plan. Here is the link to the movie August Rush and if you choose to view the movie see if you can hear something else in the overall message.

Noted below is a piece of music that was heard in the Spirit of God that relates to the movie August Rush in how music can be heard when we stop to listen;

One morning I was sitting in the chapel all alone while enjoying prayer and feeling the Holy Spirit . As I sat there I looked over at the piano with sun rays coming through the window upon it and I thought of how I love to hear the piano softly played. I then walked over to it saying, ” Okay Lord you tell us we can do anything if we have faith and even move mountains if we believe. So I then sat down and looked at the keys before closing my eyes and I began to play. It was beautiful to me and this is what I heard:

The note of a piano string
How far do you hear it fading away?
Do you interupt it with another
Before it is complete?
Or do start another key
So the notes may meet?
Each note has a specific tune to its faded end
It is in this appreciation we will learn to love
Each note to the end.
If we choose to meet
With another key
Let them sing in harmony together
So they will last forever.
It is in this process
We will find
The love and appreciation
To all of mankind… Amen

I must admit that I did not play the piano like a trained musician but the Lord played music within my heart from the very start…

Knowing

October 4, 2009 by Leave a Comment

Last night my wife and I went to see this movie titled “Knowing” starring Nicholas Cage. I was unaware of the movie or anything of its content prior to viewing. During the movie I was astonished at the message it contained and how it compared to the message in this website and especially to the message in the book titled “Special Delivery.” In the book Special Delivery I was given a message that explains how everything has a distinct purpose in time and how all small things build to big things because without the small things there would be no big things. This message in the book recently released is in perfect timing for the release of this movie and with this being said, ” Do you know that everything has a purpose in Gods’ timing?”

One thing that man has done wrong is tried to figure out numbers and dates causing them to lose site of true living in the spirit of God. In the Word of God we are specifically taught that No man knoweth the day nor the hour and in this movie it plainly shows how when we know what the future holds then we forget the joys in the days at hand. Review the message that I received June 18, 2008 during a morning walk which is noted on the Letters To The Church Page and put the pieces to the puzzle together if you can to hear something beyond man.

Knowing is a movie of faith that is hidden beneath the marketing surface and the question is ,” Do you know where your faith stands?” When viewing the movie pay attention to the writing on the van near the end of the show when all the chaos begins to take place. It was placed there in this movie for a reason and the question is again, “Do you have the spiritual eyes and ears to see and hear the message?”

Here is a link to the movie Knowing and when you view this movie one day I challenge you to put the pieces of the puzzle together between it, this website and the message within the book. This puzzle reaches beyond this world to the heavens above to those that truly believe.

Why The Church Has Declined…

October 3, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Our denominations are in decline for several reasons and one of the main reasons is because of the rules that has been placed by man that is limiting the doctrine in the Word of God. Another main reason for the decline is because many of the elders have forgotten how to uplift the next generation by recognizing the talents that God has given to each of them for wanting to hold on to their own position in front of the people.  

 Many have fallen as the Pharisees in following their own doctrine while forgetting  that every humbled sinner is welcome in the Kingdom of God through the love of Jesus Christ. We don’t have to have doctrine degrees or attend certain schools to speak the Word of God or to perform the natural gifts that the Lord provides. The Lord is our teacher and He is the one that chooses our leaders and He is the one gives us our gifts to properly serve the people. So many times in life we hang on to something because we don’t know how to let it go and uplift the next generation in helping them to develop their talets as they mature in life.

 Over time we have come to a point in thinking that we have to be a member of some group or attend a certain school to share the Word of God and I am here to tell you no one or no school can compare to being taught by the Father in Heaven above! We all receive natural gifts and these talents are given by God. Have you ever seen the difference between the artist that was born with a talent verses the one that went to school to learn their talent? There is a distinct difference in someone working within their gift and one that is not.

  So many people choose a field to work within because they are guided by someone else besides the Lord. Sometimes we carry on something because it is our family tradition while there are even those that just choose a field to work within because they don’t know where else to turn. There is a previous post written on the old church to the new contemporary worship service that explains where we are today within the church and if we do not Wake Up and start looking for those children that have received natural gifts from God then our picture in life is going to continue to fade away. We must learn to work together and not work against one another… 

 There is life within the picture of Jesus Christ that will radiate to others when we drop our walls and learn to look to God instead of man….

Selfish Bribes In America

October 2, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 At what point is it that our government will stop selling their souls to the devil and do what is right for the people? Never before has there been so much selfish desires in America. This country was built on a Christian foundation of serving the people and not seeing what we can take from the people!

 When is enough, enough? I am a humbled father of two wonderful children that is deeply concerned for the future generations due to the lack of true leadership in our country. There must come a point in life when we see how our lives and our decisions are having negative impacts that we say,” Wait a minute I can’t do this anymore, for what I am doing is going to hurt the people and it is time to clean up our act and start properly serving the people.” 

 Many people have fallen to following the crowd and the temporary dollar verses standing on what is right by God and properly serving the people. It is my sincere prayer that every individual learns to work for God rather than for themselves, and we stand again with direction and unity to help clean up this corrupt nation…amen

Life Is Living Art

October 1, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Life is a beautiful thing once we surrender and learn who is truly in control. For in the hand of the Lord there is shaping and molding that will correct us when we get out of line and then once we learn how to act within the hands of the true artist then there is a peace that can’t be explained.

 So many times in life we spin out of control because we neglect the hands of thy Father in Heaven above. But when we step back in, we can see how His hands are as gentle as a dove.

 Each individual carries his or her own living art and it is our purpose to work together as one while respecting each person for who they are  under God. This objective has never changed from the very start, and it is vital that we teach our children this life lesson before it is our time to part.

It is my prayer that every individual under God realizes how special they are and that all things are possible within the hands of the true artist in life that is being painted through the love of Jesus Christ…amen

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
