There Is Power In Prayer

January 7, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms.  Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.  And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.  Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.  Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.  And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.    
  Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back,  let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins…James 5:13-20

Need Oil For Your Lamp?

October 13, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 There is alot of wisdom in nature when we learn to pay attention to the behavior patterns of different animals. Have you ever noticed how different animals act before a change in the weather comes upon them? For instance deer tend to eat before a storm and bears tend to prepare for winter hibernation as migratory birds tend to change their location. 

 Humans are the only ones that tend to neglect the signs of the season that is to come. We tend to think that we can avoid the inevitable because we are so naive to the Truth. Jesus warns us of this in the end times and He teaches us to always be alert. Are you alert to the signs that are before us or is your lamp out of oil? It is very hard to see in the darkness of this fallen world without the lamp of God showing us the Way.

 If your life seems dark or it seems to be traveling in circles learn to let go of yourself and seek God for the direction that you need. So many times we come up short because we lean on others to fill our lamps with oil because we neglect how to keep them full ourselves….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…
