I was having a hard time at work not to long ago. They wanted me to do things that is against the law and against my faith. I didn't want to go to work, but I really didn't have a choice because I promised my supervisor that I'd stay. He needed me. I couldn't just say no. I prayed about it and God told me that BC was not my problem it was His so I gave it to Him. Afterwards it felt like a big weight was suddenly lifted from my shoulders. Soon after that things started to go wrong with the company. It's fallen apart and instead of the owners doing the right thing they continue to make things worse.

It's almost like they don't see whats going on. I shake my head every day at how blind they are. You know I just wanted them to do the right thing. I never wanted any thing bad to happen to them. I pray that God will give them sight and soften thier hearts to the truth every night. I just want them saved. To see Jesus as He really is.... you know? Do you think it's God?

God Bless You

Jacqueline

I think as Believers wherever we are placed we can bring 'Kingdom Principles' to the work place and honour G-d in whatever we do...this will also bring blessing to those we work with and work for...or who work for us.

Sometimes we are the only ones who can stand in the gap at work and make the difference between a blessing and a curse and by taking a righteous stance and giving G-dly advice we can be used to rescue businesses from the results of bad decisions ...this is as much presenting the Gospel as preaching it.

Pro 28:23 One who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor than one who flatters with the tongue.

This truly does sound like quite the predicament. Remember the story of Shadrack, Meshak, and Abendigo within these times of trial. For to stand up for what you believe in at such times can be a challenge but is ever so much encouraged. I pray that those you work with also come to see the light.

With Love In Christ,

Greetings in Jesus- :laugh:

It's important to remember a few things reagarding the lost

1)they do not have the same moral standards believers have

2)they are lost-literally and figurativelly-meaning that they have no leader-no guide to rightouesness and holiness as believers have

3)they will not behave as believers behave-that doesn't mean that unbelievers will always do immoral things but that does mean that even right decisions will not be based on God and His truth

Please know that I am not trying to sound harsh but you are the salt. You are the light. If you are truly a believer in Jesus Christ it is your job to follow Him NO MATTER WHAT anyone else is doing. If the world seeks light and hope but those who are supposed to be shining will not where will they find it? No where. It is a big deal to be a Christian in a secular world and sometimes it requires our commitment to do what's right even if it costs us dearly. Be blessed, pray for strength and be a light in the darkness of this situation. :wub:

Peace be with you-

Thankful

Jacqueline -

They wanted me to do things that is against the law and against my faith.

If the company made the choice to follow sin, your following through with them would only casue you to sink down with them. If they chose not to repent, it's not your fault - because you chose to abey the Lord!

I know it is hard to see them fall. I have a friend who is Buddhist who keeps telling me how narrow-minded I am. Will my dedication to Jesus cause her to fall if she chooses to continue following Buddhism? I can't change her fate, any more than you can change the fate of your company.

You be faithful. Think not of the fall the company is facing - but pray that this falling leads them to repentance. OK?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
