  2. There are certain blessings that God does not reveal in one go. It is time to uncover the hidden blessings that God has for us. We are called for a special purpose. In the natural, it may not always be visible. Therefore, it is important to go to the word of God and draw closer to Jesus, so that we may receive the revelation to uncover the Hidden Blessing and the special purpose that God has for our life. Please watch the video and be ready to uncover hidden blessings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iN7TqAKzy7Q
  3. I was just responding to a post in the forums, about getting jobs done, now that the Covid 19 pandemic has led to lockdowns. Some of the thoughs in that post, I though would make an o.k. blog entry, so here they are: I have not really had much of a change in getting more jobs done, because other than church related functions (attendance, Bible studies, fellowship) I hardly ever left the home anyway, so the "lockdown" has not been that big of a deal. While missing my church life type functions has freed some time, I tend to use that time for similar purposes, writing, Bible study and the like. I have noticed two axioms that describe my life, they always have, and they are very similar. Junk accrues to fit the space available Tasks accrue to fit the time available. There are other factors that affect these realities. For example, suppose there is a project to do. Usually projects take tw major things: time and money! Time and money have this interesting but inverse relationship, wherein whenever you have more of one, there is usually less of the other. Another factor that sometimes fits in, is as the older I get, the more available these thing potentially are within limitations. There are natural explanations why this is so. For example, in my younger life, I had fewer skills and less knowledge, so naturally, that reduced my earning potential. Later, that was improving, but then I had a wife and 5 kids, which took depleted most of that money. Eventually though, the kinds moved out, the wife died, and all of these drains on finances went away. Financial freedom at last! Well, not quite. I am no longer earning money, retired now, and living on limited income. So I am mostly back where I always have been. With most of my family gone though, my expenses are down, and time available is up. While not an excess, still that must be an improvement, right? Well along with advancing years, health degrades! I no longer have the strength and energy to work as hard as I would like. One the plus side, this give me some excuse so that I do not have to feel so guilty about my laziness and procrastination. All and all though, I realize that there are blessings here. I find that I can focus less on things, and more on people, and my relationship with God. I realized just today, something interesting. I am glad that God does not require of me, that is literally thank Him for everything He has blessed me with. If I were to do that, there are not enough hours available to speak of His blessings if I were to attempt to itemize them. So thank you God for everything! Amen!
  4. ENVIROMENTALISM Ah the holidays and cabin fever…anyway I got to thinking about the environment but what started this was that I had decided to look at the 10 commandments. After watching a few video’s by Ray Comfort I was struck by the way he used the 10 commandments to illustrate whilst he was street evangelising. BTW i have since discovered that Ray Comfort is a works based.... He explained that you need to get away from the intellect and into the heart and by doing a simple process using the question, “do you think that you are a good person?” and a high number of people thought that they were good ….when going through this process they re-thought their opinion of themselves based on the fact that they were heading towards hell…anyway if you want to view this find his video’s on youtube. So then I go to thinking about the environment as mentioned btw I have only at this stage got to the 2nd commandment. I have been using gotquestions.org. and that is when I think of the pope
  5. How is everyone? Im brand new on this site...cant figure out how to reply to peoples comments yet haha... But ive always been a life long believer, got filled with Holy Spirit in a big way in 2015... Always have lived a more criminal type of lifestyle, after I got Immersed by the Holy Spirit, I went deep down, lost it all, home, family, dogs got killed, had a lengthy prison sentence hanging over my head, and even commited some serious acts of violence, stole to eat, and panhandled... it took all that chastising, to make me say, I will never go back to that lifestyle again... Now finally within the last 3 to 4 months ive FULLY gave into Being a Follower of the Word, Thank The Most High! Now I cld go on all day on How much truly awesome stuff happend that day I got filled with Holy spirit, I was by myself living in a camper doing a Study and was praying allowed, went inside talked to my mom, about a friend that had got shot and killed a day or 2 before, I said I didnt feel it was in His Cards to die like that,, at that moment pure silver appeared out of a card tattoo on my forearm, and I Immediately went into full spirit, and so did my mom, I heard only two things in my head, the sounds of Angels Laughter and a man Yelling HALLELUYAH! My mom, sisters, and dad all witnessed some kind of energy field that surrounded my Body, they said it looked like the kinda Mirage you see off hot black top, I never seen it and never cared to, what I actually felt... just stompped, what they was saying about it haha.. At the end of the Exp. Everyone in the house fell asleep mid day, and my family dont nap lol...but before I fell asleep, I seen a picture of me(in my mind) kinda busting thru the doors of a church, middle service, disrupting with a authority type thing. All that happend in 2015, Ive now recently been given back everything, and better than before! Praise The Most High. Now I didnt understand what that light vision meant at all, at that time,..but its been revealed to me over this last year, I got hit with tons of truths concerning the Bible and the Church as a whole. And I can say its most definitely gonna be "disruptive" to majority of The Church. That is IF they would like to get off the Industrial train(uncomfortable,not meant for human passengers,but you can still reach your destination) and get aboard The train He has Made for human passengers with a comfortable travel all the way home.. There is really alot of stuff within all this...but one I'd like to touch on first would be Keeping of The Sabbath, Its a very amazing and a sad thing, that very Few Followers actually try to keep the Sabbath, #1. Its our Law to do so, #2. Man, I clda really used that amazing self discipline my entire life,which is likea auto blessing that is tied to the Sabbath. Haha 3. The Father Himself sanctified it,made it Holy, and gave it to us as a Gift to his Followers, its a Holy rest he wants us to partake in with him, and its been basically forgotten within the Catholic and Christian churches. We know this is a important law were supposed to Keep, even when The Messiah was put in the tomb, no visitors came on Sabbath, bc the law and all laws did and still do to this day remain intact, only changes that was done to The Law was sacrificial and ceremonial, yes that means its still not lawful to eat pork, but were not supposed to condemn anyone about what they do or dont eat, your made perfect thru the Messiah, so what you eat isnt 0f great importance anymore, but it is still The Law to not eat any unclean beast, ive searched every scripture concerning the food ordeal lol imma hungry guy.. and its def. Still apart of the law, Just knowone is to be condemned about it, but make no mistake, its a GOOD thing to not even touch those unclean animals, but if you condemn som1 for eating pork or etc.. your good deed will be turned into a evil one... But Sabbath now thats a different story and its something we all should rejoice in together every week from Friday night to saturday night. And it should be taught to our children, and you should start working on Sundays and Stop working on Saturdays. The word Sabbath means Rest or to cease, Hebrews in new testament explains we should try our utemost to keep that sabbath. If anyone has any questions for me at all, id enjoy digging into all of this, my question would be how is it, all these life long followers are overlooking so much in the word? Another ex. Paul said I believe in Corinthians it was, that while a man is praying or prophsying, He is NOT to cover his head, and if he does cover his head he dishonors The Messiah, and that a woman IS supposed to cover her head while praying and prophsying and if she dosent, then she dishonors Man..says The head of the woman is man, the head of man is The Messiah and The Head of The Messiah is YHWH or The Father.. replaced with The false title the Lord in most versions.
  6. 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.
  7. Genesis 48:18-19 says, Joseph said to him, "No, my father, this one is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head," but his father refused and said, “I know, my son, I know. He too will become a people, and he too will become great. Nevertheless, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a group of nations.” I find it interesting that Jacob/Israel blessed Joseph's 2nd born (Ephraim,) over his 1st born (Mannasseh.) It kind of repeated what had happened with Jacob himself, only he stole the blessing from his older brother, Essau , by deceiving his father, Isaac. There's obviously a reason that God put this in here and allowed this to happen that way. In tradition, the 1st born always received the blessing, inheritance, and a place of respect which made them privileged. Deuteronomy 21:17 says, But he shall acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the unloved, by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the beginning of strength; to him belongs the right of the firstborn. I wonder if God saw that as an area of pride, and decided to humble mankind, even His people. It was definitely God that allowed the order to be reversed because He's in control of all things, and nothing happens without Him allowing it. Any thoughts on this?
  8. Daily Reading 21 If you prefer, you can look up the following verses in your own Bible, of by whatever means and in whatever version you choose. Luke 16 Genesis 27:46-28:22 Psalm 21 Audio 4:27 Audio 5:~ Audio 1:03 The above addresses are linked to Bible Gateway. That is an easy way to read (or listen to) the Bible verses, and choose your version. Personally, I prefer written, that way I can go at my own pace, on think about it, before moving on. Nothing wrong with doing either or both. The Bible says faith comes by hearing. See the picture below to get an idea of what to expect if you follow the above links. Thank you Lord for making the your word so accessible for us in these times. Amen
  9. John 7:18 - "He who speaks on his own does so to gain honor for himself, but he who works for the honor of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him." The pride that comes from mere bible knowledge is divisive. It creates an appetite for one's own opinion. Those trained without a revelation that takes us to Him are trained to speak from themselves, for their own glory. This drive for knowledge without an encounter with God wars against true righteousness. Hebrews 11:6 - "But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him." All Fear is rooted in the notion that God's promises won't come to pass. Fear of poverty is really fear that Philippians 4:19 (concerning God providing all my needs) won't work. Fear of sickness is really the fear that 1 Peter 2:24 (concerning god's promise to heal me) won't work. OBSERVATION: I know that God is motivated by my faith and not my fears. As I hear God's word and receive it, faith will come. Likewise, if I listen to and receive satan's word's, fear will be amplified in my life. Since I have a choice --I choose faith! Ephesians 1:3,4 - "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. According as he has chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love." Many people who are doing something significant for God in the world are doing it "without their own resources" because God doesn't want us to depend on our own abilities. Instead, He wants us to be obedient by putting the vision on paper and then looking to Him to generate the funds and other resources that are needed to support His own work. Your provision, however, is usually hidden until you act on your vision. Whatever you were born to do attracts what you need to do it. Therefore, you first have to establish what you want to do, and begin to do it, before the need can be met. Affirmations: I KNOW THAT GOD WILL NEVER GIVE ME A VISION WITHOUT PROVISION. I REALIZE THAT MY PROVISION IS USUALLY HIDDEN UNTIL I ACT ON MY VISION. ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY
  10. Matthew 17:4 - "Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah." Peter wanted to come up with a program to organize what God was doing; but God would have us to forsake our various programs and gimmicks and, instead, simly listen to Jesus. The same glory is just as close to us as it was to Peter -- as is the same instance to revert to dead works in spite of who we have seen. Matthew 17:5 - "While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye Him." Deuteronomy 28:1 - " If you will listen diligently to the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do all His commandments which I command you this day, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth." Affirmation: I MAKE A QUALITY DECISION TO DILIGENTLY LINE UP WITH GOD'S WORD SO I CAN RELEASE THE BLESSINGS OF GOD INTO THE EARTH. "If you be willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land." - Isaiah 1:19 This opportunity is given to all who are saved, but not everyone is willing to adjust to a "diet" that is conducive to spiritual growth. Therefore, Jesus said, "For many are called, but few are chosen" (Matthew 22:14). In other words, "Few will pay the price in order to be chosen." This process of qualifying begins after we have received the gift of salvation, which has been freely provided for us by Jesus upon Calvary's Cross. James 1:19 - "Know this, my beloved brethren, let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger." THE WILLINGNESS TO LISTEN IS THE FIRST STEP TOWARD CHANGE. ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY
  11. As sons and daughters of the King, we have been given authority to pray Heaven's blessings to earth. It is God's desire to bless us and for us to witness and "see" His promises manifest. Just as Jeremiah was given the ability to "see" his new season (see Jeremiah 1:4-12), we are present-day Jeremiahs – having our eyes opened to understand and know all that God has formed for us (our future and DESTINY) has been preserved. No enemy will be able to steal our future unless we let him! The devil cannot take away what God has promised you unless you allow him entrance. POSITIONED FOR REVELATION What is His perfect will? It's easy to know because it is all written in His Word. Yet, there are times when we are being positioned for the "revelation" contained within His Word to us. Revelation is the hidden knowledge of God being made known. We are entering a season where many mysteries are being revealed. God has not withheld revelation FROM you; He has withheld revelation FOR you. Revelation occurs as God's wisdom and knowledge are released – as if He lifts a veil that has covered our eyes and we are now able to see. DRAWING NEAR It is His desire that we move closer – reposition ourselves to "draw near." And, in an intimate relationship He will speak to us concerning mysteries. It is time to"Set your mind of the things above, not on the things that are on the earth, for you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God" (Colossians 3:2-3). It is your season to be as Jeremiah and allow God to touch your mouth (Jeremiah 1:9) so that you are empowered to see and confess all that Heaven says about God's PURPOSE for your life, your circumstances, and your future! BATTLE AGANIST UNBELIEF If you recall, Jeremiah could not see his future until God "touched his mouth." The word "touched" is the Greek word "naga" (Strongs 5060)and implies that God struck the unbelief that had held Jeremiah's faith captive. The word also implies a "violent act." Think about this a moment. God did a violent act against Jeremiah's unbelief. God, Himself, went to battle against Jeremiah's mindsets concerning his abilities to be used by God (see Jeremiah 1:1-12). The finished work at the Cross promises you a new season. Jeremiah was able to "see" an almond branch budding. The almond branch is the first branch to bloom in a new season. SEE your NEW season! ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY
  12. TO MY WORTHY FAM : This is clearly past November 26th, but as some of you know- I am a 'poky little turtle.' lol. I hope that you all had the special Thanksgiving celebrations that you deserve. I wanted you to know that I've missed you during my long absence and hope that you feel the same way about me? I apologize for not touching base sooner but there have been many new illnesses and injuries in my family's lives (mine, too.) These have prevented my coming here till now. (Btw- when I first signed in, I came straight to Discussion to post this. So I have not checked my pms yet.) I thought perhaps this might be a belated Thanksgiving thread? If that is okay with all of you? If not, that's fine too. I understand. But I would love to hear how you spent your gatherings. Or if you have something to express thankfulness for or a particular scripture you would like to share regarding this topic. I thank my Creator for creating the friendships I have been blessed by over the years at Worthy. I will stop by as He leads and as my health permits. Anyone who wishes to pm me, feel free. As I said, I have missed you very much.

  14. Jesus made this promise: “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you” (John 15:7). There is only one part of this verse that most Christians really look at and that’s “you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.” I myself long ago wanted to treat God as if he was some magical genie who was there to give me everything I’ve ever wanted. The problem with that, is there’s another part of the verse that we must notice here. “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you” The Greek word for abide is Thayer’s which is a strong word and means to remain, abide or not to depart. If we want to receive the life God calls us to have we must first remember to not depart from his ways. He makes us a pretty incredible offer here, but most of us choose to ignore following Jesus to focus on the desires of our flesh. The offer: you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you The terms: If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you”
  15. I think a lot of people do not even realize a blessing when they see it. Who has a story about something that didn't seem to be a blessing at the time, but as they look back realize it for the blessing that it was.

    Blessings

    This song really means a lot to me. It helped me understand God's hand in calling us to at times endure the trials and pressures of this life. I hope it blesses and encourages you! In Christ, Eagle "Blessings" - Laura Story We pray for blessings We pray for peace Comfort for family, protection while we sleep We pray for healing, for prosperity We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering All the while, You hear each spoken need Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights Are what it takes to know You're near What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/l/laura+story/blessings_20910655.html ] We pray for wisdom Your voice to hear And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love As if every promise from Your Word is not enough All the while, You hear each desperate plea And long that we'd have faith to believe Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights Are what it takes to know You're near And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise When friends betray us When darkness seems to win We know the pain reminds this heart That this is not, this is not our home Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops What if Your healing comes through tears And what if a thousand sleepless nights Are what it takes to know You're near What if my greatest disappointments Or the aching of this life Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy And what if trials of this life The rain, the storms, the hardest nights Are Your mercies in disguise
