  1. Good Morning Worthy! I know I haven't been on in quite awhile, but I just wanted to encourage you, that God is is STILL the God of blessings and overflow. Quick Story; There is this Food Drive, that I believe God led us to, my family has been going there, and because of it, our pantry is literally overflowing! But I know, that we can't keep this all to ourselves. I am so excited to give to those in need! It such a blessing to not only have enough, but more than enough. Thanksgiving is coming, but this season, don't just give thanks, but makes sure you give in general also. There are people, that may even be in YOUR hometown who are struggling in need of food, and everyday essentials like, toothpaste, soap, deodorant and etc. And be mindful of this: DO NOT GIVE TO JUST RECEIVE A BLESSING FROM GOD! Saints, this is sad but true. Some people actually give to receive a blessing. Don't get me wrong, it is good to receive a blessing from God, but give out of the kindness of your heart, not to receive. Jesus gave his life, not just to receive the glory, but to give us a chance. Do as Jesus did. Give without expecting something back sometimes. God will open up the floodgates, and the windows of Heaven, and pour you out a blessing you DO NOT have room to receive. My family and I are living testimonies to that.We literally, I repeat, LITERALLY do not have room for the blessing God gave us. Bless you all, I pray this touched you. Prayer Father, I come to you humbly, with a heart of thanks. Thank you that you know our needs, when we don't even know them ourselves. Thank you for the little things, like the buttons on our shirt, our socks, our doorknobs, etc. Lord, you use the little things to draw us closer to you. God, thank you for being such a caring, giving, and merciful God. We know we don't deserve these blessings that you so willingly, and freely give. So in turn, we give you our thanks, honor, and praise. Though it will never be enough to get us even, or say thank you. But still, we say thank you. Thank you for you. Thank you for never, ever changing. Thank you for watching us and keeping us. Father, I pray for your people. Bless them in some form and in some way this holiday. Lord, I lift the destitute up in prayer Father. In faith, I stand with them. I rebuke the spirit of poverty In JESUS name! Father I pray for those who don't have water, who don't have clothes, and those who don't have food. Lord, you supply our needs, and I trust that you will meet them. And lastly, I thank you for this site. Thank you for these people who love, care, and pray for me. Bless your name God. In Jesus mighty name, Amen. Let it be so. Special Thanks to you all, for your support and love for me. God bless you.
  2. Luke 14:12-14 Then Jesus said to his host,“When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.” I think often times in our society we try to pay people back things for the things that they have done for us. Sometimes a verbal or written "Thank You" is enough, and a grateful heart. I once was given 2 weeks paid leave to use for sick time at work by one of my dad's friends. I did not have enough time for my medical leave, and you were allowed to transfer your own personal/sick time to others. I was so grateful for his generosity that my dad and I took gift cards over to him to thank him. He was not as happy to receive them as we thought, as he told me I was robbing him of his blessing by giving him his reward down here. He did take them, and was not mad at me, but that has always stood out to me. This verse reminded me that sometimes we just need to say thank you, and praise God for all the many blessings in our life that we can never repay....the biggest one being our salvation/forgiveness of sins! Also, for application of God's Word....any ideas as to where to find poor, crippled, lame, and blind random strangers to invite/would want to come to a banquet/dinner? James 1:22 says...But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. I'm always challenged to "do" when I hear instructions given in the Bible. Genesis 25:17-18 Ishmael lived a hundred and thirty-seven years. He breathed his last and died, and he was gathered to his people. His descendants settled in the area from Havilah to Shur, near the eastern border of Egypt, as you go toward Ashur. And they lived in hostility toward all the tribes related to them. I knew it was prophesied that Ishmael would live in hostility. Genesis 16:12 "He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone's hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers." I guess it makes sense that the hostility was passed down to his descendants cause children are often products of their environment, but they don't have to be. You sometimes see people break free from all kinds of family cycles...abuse, alcoholism, poverty, etc. Deuteronomy 5:9 ...for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity (sins) of the fathers on the children, and on the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me. My understanding of this is that the sins of the fathers are only poured out on to the subsequent generations that hate God. Hating God is what gives the punishment, not the fathers sins. So for example if Ishmael's descendents had broken away from his sinful ways, then they wouldn't have been hostile and suffered the consequences of hating God.
