Thanksgiving & Praise 2020

  Thanksgiving & Praise 2020   First, you may be asking yourself, what should Thanksgiving look like in the year 2020?   Let us take a look at the year that has changed so many of our lives, and still continues to.   Since Thanksgiving Day is almost here, we need to start this week and end this week with thanksgiving for what we have gained and remember the challenges we have faced, to be able to THANK and PRAISE GOD for getting us through each hour of each day of this past year to now.   We have faced many things including loss of family members, a pandemic, loss of jobs, loss of financial security, mental health issues, strange weather, chaos with civil unrest, political deceit, and some have even lost their faith.   So, you ask, how is it we can be thankful for anything?   Well, God does know that there are a lot of us that are having a problem with prayer, thanksgiving, and praising Him.   He understands each of our situations, howev...

Hope in the Lord!

  When we put our hope and faith in someone or something, they will always fail us.   However, when we put our hope in the Lord, He will never fail us. This year has been strange I do have to agree with this.   Through all that has been going on some of us are losing or have lost hope in God.   This is not the answer.   If anything, as for me, what has happened is I have gained more hope and faith in God.   I have gained a personal relationship with Him that is even greater than before.   He knows the plans He has for us and will make a way for those plans to come into play, no matter what it takes. (Jeremiah 29:11)     God loves us unconditionally, in a way that is beyond our comprehension and thoughts.   His way is perfect, as He is the only one who knows the future we are to have. In this time of unrest, we have found that man deceives, hates, and lacks respect.   We cannot count on those who are in the power of our nations t...

God in the Center

  God in the Center "Not by our views or opinions but by God's grace and love are what leads the sinner to God's eternal goodness!" Pastor Jean Marie By putting God in the center of our lives, we look at the world in a different light. We look to the love of God and His goodness to save those who are still sinners and don’t know Him. Through God's forever gracious love we are to leave our opinions and judgments behind. Romans 8:1-4 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but a...

Turning From Our Wicked Ways

2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves , and pray , and seek my face , and turn from their wicked ways ; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin , and will heal their land . Through this season, we keep seeing this scripture, mainly on social media sites.  God is trying really hard to show His people what is going on, yet are we LISTENING?   Are we turning from our wicked ways? These are the questions that we, the church need to look at. I haven't been hearing compassion too much on social media or in public places that much. We need to love one ano ther as we love ourselves and love God above anything or anyone. Are we ACTING upon this scripture? Are we LOVING unconditionally? We need to REPENT from our ways and start sharing the love that God has given us in a very productive way, leading others who need Him to SALVATION.  Ezekiel 33:8-9 KJV When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, ...
