Greetings in Christ Jesus. Are you in distress ? Things not going right ? Want to give up ? Giving up is not the answer. Giving your life to God is !!!! I have been very stressed lately with a new business etc .... The enemy has been trying to get me to give up ( he does that a lot does'nt he ?) Don't give up. When we are strong and safe in the care of God we cannot fail ever. Never !!! I don't like to focus on self but i have share this testimony with all of you. 5 years ago i came up with a plan for my own business to make my wife feel secure and to do something worthwhile. I did all the research stuff , legal stuff etc... But I was still afraid to launch it. Why ? I was'nt trusting 100 % in the guidance from the Lord. Well 3 weeks ago after 5 years of work and sometimes doubting it happened. The Blessings that are showering down are unlike anything that i have known. The moral of this testimony is never give up, put all your faith in God ! Give to Him your whole life 100 % and He will take care of the rest. Never give up... You have so much to gain and a lot more to lose. Don't trust the world ! Trust God !! Share with all of us a victory in your life and lets Praise God together today and forevermore ! :ph34r:

I definitely know how it feels to be stressed. I've been plucking out gray hairs throughout the semester! lol. I am always stressed every semester when I am in math. But now with finals over and my GPA still in the 'Acceptable' zone, you would think there is nothing for me to be stressed about, right? Wrong. I've been stressed because ever since high school graduation, it has been very hard for me to find friends. Finding friends after all your childhood friends move off is not easy and is very stressful. My pastor preached a sermon that if we don't have deep, meaningful relationships, we would have emotional/mental disorders later in life and eventually end up in the hospital. After the sermon, I went over and talked to my college youth minister and in the process, broke into tears because that sermon meant something to me.. I don't want disorders or anything that will cause me to be in the hospital.

I cant believe you pastor said that?!? Yes it is good to have relationships and Yes God did tell us to build upon them!

I doubt very much you will be hospitalised just because you have no friends

Don't you think you have a deep and meaningful relationship with God? This is the friendship people should be concentrating on - Trust the Lord do as he asked of us, He promises to give us the desires of our hearts.

"Friends are friends forever - if the Lord's the Lord of them" A quote taken from a song!

I am sure you have plenty of friends - it depends how you portray them. Are friends to you the type of people who never leave your side when shopping? Or those that you can go about your ways and not see them for ages due to 'busy' life but know deep down they r there when u need them?

What about youth groups at your church?

Im sure one day you will have the most beautiful friendship ever to bloom - but no relationship can ever be as beautiful as Gods!

Blessings to you

Ps - what about people here?!? Can we b classed as your friends??

    • 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.
