    For the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it hurries toward the end, and won't prove false. Though it takes time, wait for it; because it will surely come. It won't delay. Habakkuk 2:3 WEB.About thirty-five years ago, the Lord gave me a word that I would pioneer new things in ministry and fo...

    The king talked with them; and among them all was found no one like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. Therefore stood they before the king. In every matter of wisdom and understanding concerning which the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchante...

    If you died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances, "Don't handle, nor taste, nor touch" (all of which perish with use), according to the precepts and doctrines of men? These things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imp...

Everlasting Love

  • Yahweh appeared of old to me, saying, Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn you. Jeremiah 31:3 WEB.

    So many times in my life, I've stumbled in some way. Then I began to feel that I had let God down, failed Him, and should just give up. I felt like He was disappointed in me anyway. I would sulk and walk away like a puppy with his tail between his legs. Sometimes a month would go by before I even spoke to Him again.

    When I finally came to my senses, saw the light, and had an "I was blind, but now I see" moment, He was always there waiting with open arms. Just as the prodigal son that came to his senses and went back home to his father. So was I, and so was He. When I changed my attitude and accepted that the past was unchangeable, He was ready to get back to work. It was always an "OK, now let's go" conversation.

    A failure is a past event, not one of His children. The Lord isn't concerned about our past. He is concerned with what's left of our future and making every moment of it count. We are here for only a brief moment in time. If we really understood that, most of us would live it differently. We try and build things here that will last forever when everything around us is only temporary.

    The Lord draws us to Himself with lovingkindness, and His love for us is everlasting. Nothing you can do or have done will change His love for you. On the other hand, can you discipline a child and still love them? Absolutely. Jesus said: "Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent." (Revelation 3:19). Paul wrote that God's kindness is intended to lead us to repentance (Romans 2:4).

    Our past life may have some dark spots, but He will never turn away from us. He will always love us, and when we ask, He will gladly forgive us and restore us. His love is everlasting. He has a plan and a purpose for your life. You were put here for such a time as this, so let's make it count.

    Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your everlasting love. Thank You for accepting me just as I am and washing me as white as snow. Cleanse me, use me, and guide me today. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen!

God bless! Hey Brother and Sister Todd I had to delete my account yesterday and rejoined today. I noticed I could not even text any type of message without the keys that I began typing just repeating over and over, I couldn't even talk out a text on either my phone or chromebook. So I started thinking maybe I was hacked or something but it was preventing me from just even saying hi. So as much as I didn't want to delete my account because I've been a member online here since from around the begining but thankfully the other day I was thinking, I need to delete my account and create a new one, it felt like my old one was hacked. So Praise God it worked! God bless you both! It worked!

Amen. Here I am Lord. My life is a struggle..each day just to survive. I stumble daily with my thoughts and attitudes. The older I get the weaker Christian I feel that I am. Help me Father control my flesh. Help me keep my eyes upon You Lord. Help me walk in love towards others starting w my wife. Convict her about her taking me for granted. I bind up that selfishness and speak love and life into my marriage and my wife. Create in me a clean heart oh God and renew a steadfast spirit within me in Jesus Christ Name.

Thank you Father God for an everlasting Love, for never giving up on me when I went astray. You always bring me back like the Prodigal son and You are always waiting with open arms for me when I run to you. Thank you for the message of the Progigal son because it speaks to my heart and I know just how much you love me and all of your dear children. Draw all of us closer to you and speak to us in a way that we can clearly hear and understand. You will be done, in the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
