You Are A New Creation.

In 2 Corinthians 5:17:We are told that we are a new creation, the old has passed away. What does it mean the old has passed away? To explain this we also must look at Romans 6:6" Knowing this that our old man is cruicified with him(Jesus), that the body of sin might be desroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. You and I became a new creation the day we opened our heart up to the King of Kings and aked Him to forgives us our sins. WE gave our lives to the Lord for Him to rule and regien in. Up till then we were just walking around in a life driven by the demands of sin and our sinful nature. Notice 2Cor.17 says the old is passed away. What happens when something is passed away? It doesn't exist anymore. Our old sinful nature has been replaced with the nature of God who recreated us in his image.Listen to the words of Romans6:6 from the amplified translation:"We know that our old(unrenewed) self was nailed to the cross with him in order that (our) body [which is the instrument]of sin might be ineffective and inactive for evil, that we might no longer be the slaves of sin. We might ask how come I struggle so hard to be a christian. I believe it is because we never really let go of the old man of sin. Think about this for a moment how many times as a christian do we talk about the old days. The days before we became children of God. The old days before Christ. WE were dominated by the old sinful nature and was ruled by the powers of sin and self gratification. When Jesus came into our lives he brought with him a new way of life, filled with the things and ways of God our heavenly Father. There is a life changing power living on the inside of us, it is the Spirit of the living God.The resurrection life of Jesus now lives in us enabling us to live a life free of sin all we have to do is say no to sin.But to fully enjoy what God has for us we must take a long look at our self and ask the question have I let go of the old or do I still hold onto the past? When you and I were born again the past was put under the the blood. You and I must learn to leave it buried under the blood and focus on living the new life weve been given for Christ. Lets Honor our Lord and Saviour this easter by truly letting go of the past and walk in the new for him. Have a blessed and Healthy Day In Jesus Name. From Pastor Ken.

LIFE

GOOD MORNING AND PRAISE THE LORD. YESTERDAY THE SPIRIT LED ME TO WRITE ABOUT THE SOUL AND SHARE SOME THOUGHTS FROM THE BOOK HEBREW HONEY. AS I THOUGHT ABOUT THE SCRIPTURES AND WHEN I WOKE UP THIS MORNING THE THOUGHT THAT WAS ON MY HEART WAS THIS PASSAGE OF SCRIPTURE FROM JOHN 1:4"in HIM WAS LIFE, AND THE LIFE WAS THE LIGHT OF MAN.I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT OUR LIVES HOW THEY SHOULD BE THAT SAME LIFE OF CHRIST BEING REVEALED TO A DARK AND LOST WORLD BY THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN BORN AGAIN WITH THAT LIFE. I STARTED READING THE DEFINITIONS FROM THE ABOVE BOOK AND FOUND SEVERAL DEFINITIONS ABOUT LIFE. SO LET ME SHARE THEM WITH YOU.
A. And the Lord formed man of the dust of the ground,and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;and man became a living soul. The hebrew word Chayah means:
1. To live remain alive--Josh6:17. This is just not to die.
2. To live again to be revived-- Ezek.37:5 Therefore it is believed the Lord can revive a church which seems to be dead.
3. To become well, to recover from sickness--2Kings 1:2 The human body and the church are sbject to many ills but the Lord can heal them all.
4. Lively, vigorous, strong--- 2Sam.23:20. Such vigor and strength used for the Lord would cause wonders.
5. Flourshing, prosperous--- 1Sam.25:6 This kind of life can grandly advance the kingdom of God
6. Fresh Gen26:19. This is the opposite to flat, dead, putrid, or stagnant. Another word for life or soul is nephesh which means vital spirit, animus, to which is ascribed hunger, thirst, loathing,etc.
These definitions are strong but we need to see them as the message of God to the church his body. Look at definition number 2 The LORD can revive a church which seems to be dead The chuch is made up of believers and its we the believers that need to look at our life and see if it needs revived in our relationship with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. If we have become what seems to be dead it might just be we need to get a hunger for the things of God agagin like we had when we were first saved.Remember the words in Matthew 5:6"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteuosness: for they shall be filled. Be filled today with the glory and presence of God in your LIFE!!!! Have a Blessed and Healthy Day In Jesus Name: From Pastor Ken

How Important is Your Soul

We have a soul and that is where our will and emotions come into play at. The Word of God says that our soul should prosper. Listen to the Words of third John3:2" Beloved,I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. A few years ago I had a brother in the Lord give me a book intitied Hebrew Honey.I would like to share the definitions from this book about our soul." And the LORD GOD...breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;and man became a living soul. Gen 2:7 just think for a moment if God had not breathed his life into that peice of clay the man would have never had life the figure of dust would have just laid there. But when God breathed life into his creation he became a living soul.Soul derives from the Hebrew root word naphash which has several denotements.
1. It denotes breath,vital spirit or principle of lifeGen 35:18 1Kings 17:17 When this breath is absent there is death. At death the spirit is departed.
2. It denotes mind and rationality Psa.57:1 The idea is that the soul not only discovers the trustworthy but persuades the whole person to place his trust in it or cast his all upon it.
3. It denotes the seat of affections, feelings, and emotions-Psa.35:9 The soul, which the Lord breathed into the body, feels after the Lord and upon discovering Him is moved to rejoice in Him.
4. It signifies a person Exod.5:1. That which can love or hate; that which can sing or be sad; that which can be excited by the right or by the wrong makes up the total personality. The body is only clay and one day will return to the ground from which it came. As you look at these four definitions of the Word soul my prayer is that we would begin to realize how important it is to delight our selves in the word of God and fill our soul to the overflowing with the prsence of God. A prospereth soul produces a healthy body. I am convinced that many of the health problems we face comes from a wounded spirit or we can say soul. Keeping in mind that our soul is the seat of our affections,feelings etc. Many of us never let go of those deep hurts and they just fester in us until they show up on the body in some form or another. I hope you will meditate upon these thoughts. Have a Blessed and Healthy Day in Jesus Name: From Pastor Ken

Praise Report

Good morning and praise the Lord. I have a testimony I want to share with you today but I felt led to use this scripture to go along with the testimony.Revelation 12:11"And they overcame him by the blood of the of the Lamb,and by the word of their testimony. My oldest sister was diognosed with stage three breast cancer two yers ago she came to the church we anointed her in oil and prayed the prayer of faith for her healing.She had to go this week for her yearly body scan to see if the cancer had come back anywhere in her body.Well she called me last night and told me she got the results and there is no cancer anywhere. I just have to thank the Lord for he is the healer. Sis has never quit praising God for her healing since day one. Where ever she goes she shares her testimony and I mean everywhere, in the church, in the grocery store, in the laundremat where ever God opens the door for her to share her testimony. The key for our healing or anything else we need from God is in our testimony. Notice the scripture says they overcame him by the blood of the lamb, by the word of their testimony. Who is the him they ovecame? The him they over came was satan and his attacks they stood up against him by testifying the word of God and praising God.
In the scriptures we are told to praise God with our testimony.When the attack is coming at us thats not the time to quit thats the time to dig your feet in and tell the devil this is not going to happen the way you think. I am the redeemd of the Lord and I declare the promises of God my Father. And then tell the devil just in case you forgot it was my Lord and King that defeated you and set me free from you and its His blood I plead over my life every day. Just remember you are new creation the old is passed away. Listen to the words of 2 Corithians5:17" Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation: old things are passed away;behold all things are become new. One translation says you are a new species of being. It means the power satan held over the old you that was without Christ and his redemption no longer exist because you are a new creation in Christ and you are covered under the blood of the Lamb. Have a Blessed and Healthy Day in Jesus. From Pastor Ken

Declare Your Love For God

Good Morinig and praise the Lord. In Psalms 107:2 You will find these words" Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy." Every born agian beleiver should be shouting to the house tops I am the redeemed of the Lord. He hath redeemed from the hand of my enemy. In Galatians 3:13 we Have the declaration from the Word of God what Jesus redeemed us from listen to these words" Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law,being made a curse for us:for it is written Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: Jesus broke the curse that was upon us from the fall of Adam. Jesus has made the way for you and I to walk free of the curse and all the affects that came with it. If we truly understood all that was intailed in the curse we would be shouting to heavens praising God for our redemption. WE truly are a blessed people but we need to let the world and the people around us know about our redeemer and not be afraid to speak the truth before all men.Listen to thses Words from Galatians as they are written in the Amplified Bible: Christ purchased our freedom[redeeming us]from the curse(doom) of the Law and its condemnation by [Himself]becoming a curse for us, for it is written[in the scriptures],Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree(is crucified). Notice what Jesus bought for us our FREEDOM, we are free fom the curse. We have the right to expect to walk in the freedom Jesus purchased for us by becoming the Curse for us and bearing our sins and all that came with it upon the tree in his own body. We owe it to our lord to shout and declare our freedom to a lost world. Many people are looking for answers to the hurt and pain that they are suffering right now in these trying times the one true answer for them is to come to saving grace of God sent to us through his Son Jesus.I beleive we the body of Christ need to shout our Love for God from the housetops. Look at these words from Colossians 1:13"Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath tranlated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.Notice the Word hath it means its a done deal we are a part of the family of God we are joint heirs with Jesus. Just think about how you declare your relationship with Jesus to those around you.We ought to be a happy and rejoicing people because we know in whom we belong. Have a blessed and healthy day in Jesus. From Pastor Ken

Jesus The Healer

Good morning and praise the Lord. I was just reading something form one of the writings of what I beleive to be one of the great generals of God in the healing ministry from years gone by. Just thought I would share it with you This great man of God walked in a presence of God that caused the healing flow of God to touch many lives. In one of his sermons intitiled the marvels of God he spoke theses words. "To my heart Jesus Christ is the Eternal Healer. He was the Healer in the beginning. He was the Healer before there was any flood. He was the Healer after the flood. He was the Healer during His earth life. He is the Healer in this dispensation. He is the Healer forever!!! Bless God. So long as need of healing exists, Jesus is the Healer. Blessed be His Name.Over the years of ministry I have sen the hand of God move on people and heal them from sickness. I just dont see healing just in the physical realm I belive the healing minisrty of Jesus takes in the spirit, soul and body. In 3rd John verse 2 it says "Beloved I wish above all things that thou mayest proper and be in good health, even as thy soul prospereth." I would like for us to think along the lines for a moment of a prospering soul. What will cause the soul to prosper. Remember the soul is where the mind, will, and emotions react from. A propering soul is one that is built up in the things of God. A soul full of the word of God is able to overcome any thing that the devil will throw at a person.When you think about the trials we face, how do they affect us they play on our mind,emotions for the most part. The words at the beginning of this writting that stuck with me were."TO MY HEART JESUS CHRIST IS THE ETERNAL HEALER. In the bible the heart and soul are the same thing so one could look and say to my soul Jesus Christ is the Eternal Healer. When a person is truly hungry for God his soul will burn with in him for that prsence of God for that oneness with God. Just think about your hunger for how strong is it. Jesus said in Matthew 5:6" Blessed are they that which hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.Here is the Amplified translation of this verse" Blessed and fortunate and happy and spiritually prosperouse( in that stat in which the born again child of God enjoys His favor and salvation)are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness(uprightness and right standing with God), for they shall be completely satisfied!!! Have a Blesed and Healthy Day.In Jesus Name. From Pastor Ken. Remember this Saturday night is our Healing and Commuion Service.

Good morning and praise the Lord. I was reading Hebrews 4:12 this morning and I would just like to share with you the thoughts that our Father through His spirit was speaking to my heart."For the Word of God is quick, and pwerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword,piercing, even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a dicerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. When I study the word I use a couple of translations to get the full depth of what God is saying to us His body in the earth. I was reading this verse from a study I have that has a translation called Moffetts. This verse reads like this in this translation."For the Word of God is a living thing. But it will only come alive to you as you accept it and act upon it. The thoughts started coming like this I called my church to walk in this earth as a wittness of my love and power. I dont think to many will dis agree with this. Jesus our Lord and Savior walked in the earth as a living testimony of the Father and His love and power. For this to be we must accept the word of God and then act upon it and this means to accept it all not just bits and peices. The word quick actually means " alive and living" is the word a alive and living in us. Here is another translation of that verse" For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power[making it active. operative, energizing, and effective]: it is sharper than any two- edged sword penetrating to to the dividing line of the breath of life(soul) and [the immortal spirit, and of joints and marrow[of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart. Now we the church should be full of this presence of God and operating in the earth as the sons of God. John 1:12 says" But as many as received him, to them gave gave he "power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. WE the church are given all we need to walk in this earth as the children of God.We were given the call to go forth and preach the Word of God. When the word is being preached as Jesus preached it when he walked upon the earth and as the early disciples did I beleive we will see the preaching follwed with signs and wonders just as God intended for the church to do. But for this to happen the wrod has to come alive to all beleivers it just can not be in our minds with no action coming forth from it. Every beleiver is given the power and the right to walk in this earth as the sons of God. For this to happen we have to begin to act upon the head knowledge. You see faith is an action word we can have all the knowledge of the word but if we never act upon it by faith and speak those truths to our selves all it will ever be is head knowledge with no action. My challenge to you today is take the words from the three translations this mornig and just meditate on them and then ask yourself this question is the Word the power in your life God intended it to be. The three translation are KJ, Amplified and Moffets. Have a Blessed and Healthy Day in Jesus Name: from Pastor Ken.

Part 4 The Promise

In this last part we have the promise given to us by God the Father."I (GOD) will put none of these diseases upon thee,which I have brought upon the Egyptians:for I(GOD)am the Lord that healeth thee. Here is the thing if we as the children of God follow the first three than we have the assurance from God that he will be our healer.God fullfilled this promise in Jesus. Jesus came to bring us life. Jesus even said in John 10:10"The thief cometh not, but for to steal,kill,and to destroy: Now listen to what Jesus says as to why he came"I(Jesus) am come that they might have life:and that they might have it more abundantly. Lets ask the question: Who are the they Jesus is talking about, could it be the born again child of God? God our Father has always had the best interest for His creation in his heart. He sent the Word to us. In the gospel of John chapter 1:14"And the word was made flesh, dwelt among us,(and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth. Who is this word? It is Jesus and God the Father sent him to bring healing to us. I believe healing not only involves our physical bodies but it also involves our soul. When you and I were born again the new birth took place in our spirit and the spirit that once was blinded by the darkness of sin now has been awkened out of darkness and brought into the gloriuos light of Gods presence. But we renew our soul and build it up in the presence of God by the Word.I believe this is where Romans 12:2 must become a reality listen to the Words of Romans 12:2"And be not conformed to this world: be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind,that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable and perfect will of God. I have studied the teachings of the great men of faith and they all seem to agree on one thing that the soul is where your mind,will and emotions are carried out. If this be the case then for you and I to renew our minds we have to open up our soul to the Word and guidence of the Holy Spirit. If you really think about it before Jesus came in we never gave any thought to what we were going to do. Our attitude was if it feels good do it. Taht was because we were blinde by the darkness but now the life of God is now in our spirit giving us the ability to see the truth. These four parts deal with Gods covenat of healing and Jesus is the full fillment of this covenant. I truly beleive that this promise of healing belongs to every born again child of God.I wouls like to leave you with thses words from 1Peter 2:24"Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree,that we, being dead to sins should live unto rightuosness: by whose stripes ye were healed. I here people say bore our sins on his body, but the word says he bore them in his body when you take something in your body it becomes a part of you you cant wash it off. Jesus bore in his body so that he could destoy it through his death. He destroyed the consequences of sin through his death. Notice it also says " we being dead to sins should live unto righteousness. We are supposed to be dead to sin this to me means sin can be all around us but if Christ is Lord of our life it can not attach itself to us becuase we have the power with in us to say no. I want to close with these words from the gospel of John1:12"But as many as received him,(Jesus) to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. The same power that worked in Jesus as he walked this earth is living in us who believe in his name.Think about it. Have a Blessed and Healthy Day. From Pastor Ken

Part 3 Follow His Comandments

Part three"And will give ear to his comandments,and keep his statutes." We are living in struggling times. It is in these times when we should be looking to God and listening to God. But instead all around us we have people who are wanting to take God out of everything. We have taken the ten comandments out of our schools and out of our court houses and in some cases out of our churchs. People are looking every day for an answer to the problems of life. The only answers to the problems we face is in the Word of God. This nation has always been a blessed nation due to the fact we were a nation that honored our God. The God of our forefathers. Christians today need to decide who they will follow.God is calling us to the word and all that is in it. In Psalms 119:105"Thy wword is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path." We need to have a light in this world of darkness that will shine so bright that there will be no way for darkness to blind our path. To follow after the comandments of God calls for us to listen to the word of God. Lets look at some of Gods comandments: Honor thy Father and Mother that thy days may be long upon the earth. We live in a time when many children don't know the meaning of honor thy father and mother. I have seen kids today cuss there parents out and in some cases hit there parents and threaten the parents life. Jesus says in the new testament love thy neighbor how many of us really follow this one. In many cases we would rather fight with them then show kindness and love. Jesus said to go the extra mile when the last time you went the extra mile to help some one you just don't like.Loving God and his word are not hard when you and I learn to put our selves and our self wants out of the way. Listen to these words from William Cullen Bryant he was known as the father of American Poets he was a long time editor of the New York Evening Post listen to what he said about the word of God" The sacredness of the Bible awes me,and I approach with the same sort of reverential feeling that an acient Hebrew might be supposed to feel who was about to touch the ark of God with unhallowed hands. How many people today have that kind of feeling and reverance for the Word of God today. Not even our leaders respect the word of God with this kind of respect.I would like to challenge you and I to really ask ourselves how much we trust the word of God. Have A Blessed And Healthy Day. from Pastor Ken.

WILL YOU DO RIGHT

Part 2 of the covenant of healing"And wilt do that which is right in His sight" These are strong words because if you and I will truly listen to them it will cause us to ask ourselves am I doing what is right in Gods sight or am I doing what I want.Listen to these words from Prov.14:12"There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. These are pretty strong words lets look for a moment at the first part" There is away that seemeth right to a man. We all are faced with choices it those choices that determine the path we take. A true path will be one we have sought the face of God about I say that based on the Word that says the steps of a righteuos man are ordered of the Lord. Many good men have chosen to follow God and have been blessed by God because they walked His way and not theres. Some of these great men have made mistakes also and took a path that seemed right to them but all it did was lead to death. Even in our life time we have seen this. Great men of God blessed mightly by God and given great insight in the Word of God have taken a path that seemed right to them and have lost everything that ever really meant any thing to them. Doing what is right in Gods sight is not always easy. God has His standard of doing things.In Deuteronomy 30:19 God gives us the choice listen to the WORDS OF GOD" I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live. Who is the I in this scripture it is Our Fahter God giving us the insight to life. If we choose a life that follows after God and do what is right in his sight we will walk in the blessing and not the curse.
But this means as God blesses us we can't just do with the blessing as we want, thats not why he blesses us. WE are blessed so we can be a blessing to others by sharing what God has blessed us with, with them. I believe when God starts blessing us abundantly and we take God out of it and start doing what we think is right thats when the second part of the verse in Proverbs starts taking place.Listen to the words of the second part of Proverbs."but the end thereof are the ways of death. Notice the ways of death to me this means we have opened our selves up to the attack of Satan who has but one mandate and that is to destroy. What if God has blessed you above any thing you could have imagined and as you followed him the blessing just flowed to you. Then all of a sudden you were over taken by the blessing instead of the one giving the blessing. You start getting into yourself well the next thing your doing is letting flesh rule your choice rather than God. I believe this is when the ways of death start taking hold and destruction starts taking place. We in our life time have seen great companys fall, we have seen great ministrys fall etc. We must always ask ourselves the question no matter what decision we are being called upon to make how is this going to affect are life in God. In other words will it bring honor to God. Am I promoting the one who has blessed me or am I promoting myself.I dont care how big we get there is no time that we can ever think we no more than OUR HEAVENLY FATHER. And I dont no about any one else but I know I need him guiding me every day of my life.
Remenber this we are given choices every day before we make them we need to ask is this choice right in the sight of God the one who is watching to see what we do with the choices. Have A BLESSED AND HEALTHY DAY IN JESUS NAME. Form Pastor Ken

LISTEN TO THE VOICE OF GOD

Exodus 15:26 This is Gods covenant of healing: This covenant has four division in it.Its these for divisions I would like to share with you for the next four days. First division " If thou wilt diligently hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God. Lets look at two words form this first divisoin. Dligently and hearken. The definition for diligent means to: be steady in application, persevering, prosecuted with care and constant effort: So lets talk about persevering what does it mean to persevere after something? It means to continue stead fastly going after something you want till you get it. I beleve we must go after the promises in Gods word with perseverence and stay after it until you receive the revalation knowledge of what God is saying in those promises. Once weve received revelation on it we won't turn from it but we will draw closer to it. We will be come engrafted with it and the word of God will become a living part of us. Now lets look at the word hearken. Hearken comes from the hebrew word azan and it has depth of meaning it means to put in the ears of anyone such as in Isa22:14a"And it was revealed in in my ears by the Lord of host. God will speak to us His will if we will hearken to His voice.The acients hold that this not only means to get into ear but also to lay up in the mind as in Exodus 17:14a"And the lord said unto Moses, write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua. I am no bible scholar but could it be God was trying to let us know that with out the understanding of the voice of God that we might not have a full understanding of what He wants for us. Could it be He was showing us how to hear from Him.For something to really become a part of us we must be diligent to grasp it. You and I did not learn our A,B,Cs, without speaking and spending rehearsing them over and over until they became a living part of us,same way with the multipication tables or anything else we wanted to get a hold of. Well we have to be just as dedicated to getting the Word of God in us. This is the first part of the covenant of healing. Think about these Words from the scrpitures"Let him that hath ear let him hear what the spirit of the Lord saith.Open up your heart to the Sppirit and hearken to the voice of God. Have a Blessed and Healthy Day In Jesus Name.From Pastor Ken

WILL YOU STAND ON WHAT YOU RECEIVE?

This last question is one that you and I must truly think upon. As we go to the Father and ask him thruogh the name of Jesus to heal us we must beleive that he will. However when we don't receive the immediate manifestation of that request we still have to stand on the word of God that says by his stripes you were healed.Listen to the words of James 1:22 "But be ye doers of the Word, and not heares only, deceiving your own selves. We just can't say we beleive it we have to be willing to act on what we beleive. In the case of healing we need to stay in agreement with the Word no matter what we might be feeling.Listen to this same verse from the amplified translation."But be doers of the Word[obey the message],and not merely listeners to it, betraying yourselves[into deception by reasoning contrary to the truth]. You and I must take on the attitude that Gods Word is the absolute truth. We cannot allow human reasoning to talk us out of the truth of God our Father. Jesus came into the earth to open our eyes to these great truths. And when we have to stand on the Word as the act of faith so be it because no matter what God is the one who backs his Word. Here is another translation of this same text."Don't fool yourself into thinking you are a listner when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear!!! Just because we read it and do nothing with it doesn't make us a believer. Beleiving is acting on what you hear is this not the way you and I got saved we heard the salvation message and the we were given a choice to act on what we heard or just let it go in one ear and out the other and walk away from the invitation to receive salvation. Those of us who heard the salvation message and answered the call had to act upon the Word we heard we had to get up out of our seat and walk toward the alter and ask Jesus to come into our heart. We could have sat there in that seat and said I agree with that but and just never followed through on what we believed. Beleiving is acting on the truth and staying committed to that truth wether it be for healing, finacial need, or whatever the need you have.
I guess the bottom line on this is this"Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health,even as thy soul prospereth. I beleive our health will be strong if we are prospering our soul in the Word of God and acting on those great truths in our lives.Have a Blessed and Healthy Day IN Jesus Name!!! From Pastor Ken.

WILL YOU ACCEPT GODS WILL

Many of us ask God TO HEAL US AND AT THE SAME TIME With in ourselves we have this thought well if God wants to he will heal me. With this kind of attitude we cancel out the prayer of faith that we were praying for our healing with. Jesus said when ye pray believe ye receive. When did Jesus say to believe He said WHEN YE PRAY that means the moment we pray we are to believe we have received. Well what if I still have pain then we are to thank God that we have received are healing its manifeasting no matter what our body is saying. There was an outcast who came to Jesus one day and said to him: You Can Make Me Whole. Listen to the story in Luke 5:12-13:"And it came to pass, when he (Jesus) was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying,Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.Here is a man that is an out cast due to a terrible disease. He comes seeking Jesus and says to Jesus you can make me whole if you want. He believed that Jesus could make him whole if he wanted to. You and I need to understand something here when Jesus walked in the earth he walked in a fleshly body. After Jesus 40 days in desert where he received the power of the spirit through defeating Satans temptations in the widerness. Jesus came out of that desert full of the presence of God.As Jesus walked the earth doing all the works that he did it was God in Jesus doing the work so as we look at Jesus reply to the leper we need to realize it is the Father who is saying through Jesus "Be thou clean". Listen to the will of God through this next verse."And he (Jesus) put forth his hand,and touched him saying,I will:be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him. Notice whos will it was for the man to be clean. Remembering that it was God working in Christ so when Jesus spoke I WIL BE THOU CLEAN it was also God saying it is my will be thou clean.You and I must accept that it is Gods will to heal and deliver us from the attacks of Satan. We must believe that it is Gods will to heal and then confess that truth before the devil letting him know that accept the word of God over him. The question is 'Will You Accept Gods Will?

Will You Receive from God?

Well good morning and praise the Lord. This morning the Lord woke me up with these three questions going over in my mind. 1. Will You Receive From God? 2.Can You Accept Gods Will? 3. Will You Stand On What You Receive?
For the next three days I would like to share one of these questions with you and the thoughts God has given me on these questions. So here is the first one"Will You Receive From God? As I sat here and thought upon this question this scripture came to mind. It is in the gospel of Mark 9:20-23. It is the story of a desperate father. This father has wathced his son from birth be over taken by some force and this force has literally tried to destroy this child. There are people out here everyday of there lives battleing the forces of evil and are becoming very desperate to find an answer. This father needed to find an answer to for his son. Now maybe this father had been hearing about the man from Galilee and he said I will take my son to him. He may have heard how Jesus was being used of God to heal the sick, give sight to the blind, etc. How many of us have down through the ages heard the storys of the great moves of God that has taken place and the great miracles that have happened in our life time. Listen to the words of this desperate father as he finds Jesus and begins to talk to him."And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: But if thou canst do anything, have compassion on us, and help us. Does it sound familiar how many times in desperation have we cried out to God and said where are you God I could really use some help here don't you care what is happening to me. Jesus speaks and says to the father how long has this been going on the father says ever since he was a child. With that satement we can percieve that this child was now a young man maybe in his teen years.I believe you and I need to see and here what Jesus is about to Say to this father."If thou Canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. Our question to ouselves should be do I really believe that all things are possible to me if I believe in the power and truth of the word of God. I can be healed, Ican have peace of mind, I can have joy and experience the love of God all around me. Now listen to the words of the father after Jesus spoke these words to him."And straightway the father cried out with tears, Lord I believe; help thou mine unbelief. The father was saying Jesus I believe remove all doubt and unbelief so that it does not hinder my son from receiving his miracle this is what I believe the father meant when he said help thou mine unbelief. So the next time your back is up against the wall and you think there is no hope take a lesson from this father go to Jesus and cry out help thou mine unbelief.Remember these words from the prophet Jerimiah 29:11" For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord,Thoughts of peace, and not evil, to give you an expected end. Just think God is thinking about you and he's not thinking of doing evil to you, but his thoughts are of peace toward you.The hebrew word for peace is shalam: and it means to make complete and to have peace, to be whole, and to be sound, and to be safe."Thou shalt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee.Isa 26:3. Here is the question for you "Will You Receive From God? Will you open up and let God into your life to reign? Have Blessed and Healthy Day In Jesus Name: From Pastor Ken.

Watch What You Say

Numbers chapter 12.In this chapter we find an interesting story about how to keep out of places we don't belong. God called Moses from the burning bush to go back to Egypt and bring the nation of Isreal out. God had anointed Moses in a very special way.When God called Moses to serve Him, HE spoke these words to Moses." Thou Shalt Be As God". He literally was saying Moses you shall be like me in the earth no other man had walked like this or acted in the manner of God up to this point. We all no the story of how God used Moses to show power over pharoh. In this chapter the children of Israel are camped at Hazeroth. God had just dealt with the rebellious ones.
Now the sister and brother of Moses became upset with moses and started talking about Moses. Listen to the words of Miriam and Aaron:vs2"Hath the Lord indeed spoken only by Moses; hath he not spoken also by us? notice who heard it:"And The Lord Heard It. I just dont understand how we can think we can talk about someone or get into some one elses business and think Gods not going to hear us. Many people have talked about the servents of the Lord and ran them down and then wondered why things stated coming against them. God heard every word that the brother and sister of Moses was speaking against the one that He had anointed to lead the people.Listen to vs 3 Now the man Moses was very meek,above all the men which were upon the face of the earth. Mose was not a vengeful man he was a very humble man and trusted in God. I would incourage you to read this whole chapter. in vereses 7-8 God declares that he will talk with Moses mouth to mouth. He asks the two why were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses? Could it be He was letting them know to speak againt Moses was to be speaking Against God due to the relationship Moses had with God. The word says and the anger of the Lord was kindled against them and he departed. Miriam was left as a leper due to her speaking against the servant of God. We can see two things here one God gets upset with us when we start letting our mouths run where they have no business and two the mighjty power of Gods forgiving grace. Here the pryaer of Moses for his sister;"Heal her now,O God,I beseech thee. We know that God healed her I wonder what would of happened had Moses not been the man he was. He was humble and forgiving even after they had been talking about his wife. I am just trying to say to all of us there are things we get are selves into where God may not want us to be and we talk about people that we should not be talking about. God calls those he wants to use for his mighty work. I feel what started me thinking about this was a Christian program I was listening to and they started talking about prosperity preachers, Faith preachers and etc. They were talking in a bad light about them and I was thinking why get mad at how God is blessing them if they were not in His will He would bring them down as we have seen Him do with some in our life time. So the next time you go to say something about somebody think about what God is about to hear. Please read the whole chapter and meditate upon it.

Blessings to the Righteous

Well good morning and praise the Lord He is so wonderful.You know we should get up everyday with the Lord and give Him a big shout of praise. You might say well thats hard because you dont know what yesterday was like.I have many favorite verses truogh out the word of God that I speak to myself and incourage my self with on a daily basis. This is one of them."Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Everyone of us have desires in our hearts and would like them to become reality.I believe that the way to achive that is to delight ourselves in the Lord.Listen to the definition of the word delight:That which yields great pleasure: a high degree of pleasure; joy To affect with great pleasure; to give high satisfaction to. to take great pleasure t; to be rejoiced. Now think about how many times we read in scripture to rejoice in the Lord. When you and I truly begin to put our trust in the Lord and His word thats when we will be gin to see the desires of our hearts start to be full filled. Praise creats that heart after God I know its hard to praise when we are being hit from every side. But the truth is when we are being attacked by our enrmy that when we delight ourselves in the praise to God the one who will defend us. I have faced battlesin the years of ministry and at times I have felt like whats the use but then all of sudden a song will start to rise up in me to praise the Lord with and the more I begin to praise God the lghter the weight becomes pretty soon I am so taken with praise to the Lord that the problem that was there just doesnt seem to be as big as Ithought it was. God begins to give me insight on how to deal with and continue to walk upright before him.The next verse says to"Commit thy way unto the Lord; Trust also in him;and he shall bring it to pass". This simply means give it all to Lord and and trust him to bring your desire to pass. For me I have had a vision for this ministry down deep in my heart for years nad there has been time I have seen it start to take off I and I would think alright God its here only to see a set back. And it was in those set back times that I would just get into myself and want to quit. But the Holy Spirit would just begin to push and prod at me and I would begin to praise God and he would give new insight and that would just awaken a drive in me not to give up but to learn from the mistakes. God is a true Father he loves his children will always be there for us if we just would learn to delight ourselves in the Lord. You know if you study the Psalms you will find that thats what King David did when things or people came at him and created trouble he would just begin to en courage himself in the Lord through praise to the Lord. We must alos learn to committ are lives over to him and trust Him with them. Once again take this Psalm and just meditate in it and see what God shows you. Have Blessed and Healthy Day.

God Is With Us

In the 46th Psalm the writer declares that God is with us. We are living in troubled times people are loosing their jobs , homes etc. Many are blaming this on God. How can we blame God for our un williness to follow His ways.Listen to the first verse of this Psalm "God is our refuge and strenghth, a very present help in trouble". Who should we be looking to in these troubled times according to the Word of God he is our refuge. What is a refuge?Here is the definition of refuge: Protection from danger or distress:a retreat;a shelter. What better place can we run to then the arms of God and his protective shelter. In Psalm 91 verse 2 it says I will say of the Lord He is my refuge and my fortress: my God in him will I trust. It seems that God our Father is saying to his children put your trust in me for I am ever with you. Lets look at verse 7 of the 46th Psalm " The Lord of host is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge" Selah. Whos is with us? God our Father. How is he with us He sent us his only begotten son so we could come to him through Jesus and know that He is always with us. God after Jesus assended to the right hand of the Father He sent us the Holy spirit to guide direct and lead us in the will and prsence of God. We as his children should know the Father and the Son by and through the written word and the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives. The word selah at the end of verse seven simply means to pause and think about it. So what should we do read what the verse says and then close our eyes and think about the fact that God is with us. When we go any where God is with if our life is in him.Lets look at verse 10a of the 46th Psalm:" Be still, and know that I am God:Many of us are so busy that we dont know how to take time and be still and listen for God. You know Gods voice is the small still voice talking to us from within. We will never here the still voice of god if we dont become still with in our selves. God is truly our help in all things He said that He would never leave us or forsake us. Listen to thses Words of Jesus: " I am with you always,even unto the end of the world. Lets look to God who is a very present help in trouble. Dont look to man look to God. Have a Blessed and Healthy Day IN Jesus Name. Read all of Psalm 46 and meditate in it. From Pastor Ken
