Does He Reign

Good morning and praise the LORD.I just want to take this time to say to all Jesus loves you!!!! I was reading this scripture this morning and started to think upon it and just wanted to share with you what the Holy Spirit was showing me."Blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. If you read this scripture you will find its where Jesus appeared to the disciples after his resurrection and Thomas was there this time. If you have ever read the gosples you will remember Jesus had appeared to his disciples and Thomas was not there with them. When they told Thomas he said I'll not believe it unless I see the periced hands and feet and the wounded side. In this passage Jesus is there and Thomas sees for himself, Thomas replies in verse 28 "MY LORD and MY GOD" what a decleration of faith but notice what Jesus says "Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet they believed. Jesus looked down through the portals of time and saw people who would come to believe in the saving grace of God through Him even though we have not seen him. Do you think he was talking about this generation of people of God. We are living in one of most powerful times in the history of man. Do we truly believe in power of the ressurected Christ the one who died and rose again with the victory for life. He's is our King and redeemer he is the one who broke the curse over our lives that we could live a complete and victorious life in Him. I like what Paul says in Galatians 2:20 "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I but christ liveth in me:and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God,who loved me and gave himself for me. Paul declares that his faith is in the Son of God and all that the Son is. He says the life he's now living in the flesh He's living it for Christ. Thomas believed because He seen, but you and I have never seen yet we believe that Jesus is the Christ the Son of the living God. But that belief just can't be superficial it has to be deeply rooted in us till we declare it is not I that lives but the Christ in me lives and regiens. We are called to do the super natural and to let the world see the glory of the LORD upon and shinning out of us to those in darkness. "DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE ONE WHO LIVES IN YOU!!!IN CLOSING LISTEN TO THE WORDS OF JOHN 20:29 FORM THE AMPLIFIED TRANSLATION: "Jesus said to him, Because you have seen ME, Thomas do you now believe(trust have faith)?Blessed and happy and to be envied are those who have never seen ME and yet have believed and adhered to and trusted and relied on ME. The LORD bless you and Keep you Healed and Whole. From Pastor Ken

Liberty

Good morning and praise the Lord everybody.In 2 Corinthians 3:17 we find a profound statement listen to the word "Now the LORD is that spirit:and where the Spirit of the LORD is, there is liberty. Think about what this word says where the Spirit of the LORD is there is liberty. Many people are looking for peace and happiness the place to find it is in a life given to the LORD ship of Christ. Christians have the spirit of the LORD living in them but they fail to see the liberty that the presence of the living Christ has given them. We have the promise from the LORD in Luke 4:18 That he was anointed to heal the broken hearted,to preach the gosplel, to preach deliverance to the captives,recovering of sight to the blind. Do you realize that the same spirit that anointed Jesus is the same spirit living on the inside of you and I. We in the body of Christ need to tell the devil where he needs to go when he tries to defeat and take our liberty away from us. This liberty frees us from the curse of sickness,poverty,oppression and every other curse that the devil would like to convince us we have not been set free from. You are free in Christ from all the curse. Listen to this verse from the amplified translation 2Cor.3:17"Now the Lord is the Spirit,and where the Spirit of the LORD is,there is liberty[emancipation from bondage,freedom].Listen to John 8:32,36"And ye shall know the truth,and the truth shall make you free. "If the Son therefore shall make you free,ye shall be free indeed. What liberty we have in Christ our Lord. Next time the devil sends you a bad report take and shake it at him and say no way for Iam free in Christ and refuse to accept this lie. You have been set free from bondage dont get back under the curse for Jesus has broken the curse from your life. Have a blessed and healthy day in the LORD. From Pastor Ken

Walk in Love

Praise the Lord Our God for He mighty within us to the tarring down of all strong holds. I was reading the word this morning in 1 Corinthians 12:25 "That there should be no schism in the body;but that the members should have the same care for one another. The Holy Spirit started me thinking on this from the aspect of what it would be like if the whole body of Christ every where could be concerned about each other. Paul wrote this to church at Corinth because there was so much division going on in the church.Paul through the direction of the Holy Spirit addresses this by using the anology of the body.There is no part of our body that we dont need and we must take care of it so that each part is able to serve the other.If we fail to watch and protect a part and something happens to it we suffer at the loss of that part. We still go on but all the time we feel like we are just struggling to do what we used to do. So it is in the body of Christ when we fail to love one another and be there for each other.Listen to this veres fron the Amplified Bible 1 Cor.12:25"So that there should be no division or discord or lack of adaption[of the parts of the body to each other],but the members all alike should have a mutal interest in and care one for another. We are all brothers and sisters in Christ and when one in the body hurts we should all hurt and come to the aid of each other. But in stead in many cases we forget how to forgive and how to love the way Jesus forgave us and has loved us in all our short comings.Pastor what if I have asked forgivness and they say they have forgiven me but it just feels like they havent when I am around them. You have to ask your self this question am I confussing trust with forgiveness.
I have known people who have truly forgiven some one but at the same time it takes them a long to to develope trust in that person again. To me when I say I forgive I just let it all go and get on with my life however there are people who are very cautoius about who they make friends with and when they do make friends and that trust is betrayed in there eyes they may forgive that person but they struggle in trusting that person. What do we do in that situation I have found that if you and I truly love that person we will pray very hard for God to show His love to them and work hard to gain there trust once again. Just remember we are all members of the body of Christ and we need each other even if it seems like we dont, each one of us are a very important part of the body and Jesus put us there to show his love and support to each other. May Lord fill your day with His happines. God Bless frm Pastor Ken.

Christ The Life Within

Good morning and praise the Lord!!! May the blessing and goodness of the Lord abound to us all.Here is something that the Lord has been dealing with me about for some time. It is found in Galatians 2:20"I am crucified with Christ:nevertheless I live,yet not I,but Christ liveth in me, and the life which I now in the flesh,I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me,and gave himself for me. What was Paul saying to us? Could it be Paul was giving us a revelation on the kind of life we should be living in and for Christ. A crucified life is one that is sold out to Jesus. It is a life that is no longer driven by the wants and dictates of the flesh.I beleive Paul was telling of a place in Christ. Where it is no longer about me, and all about Him. A life surrendered to the Christ that lives in us. We are the called of the Lord and we are to be the living epistle of Christ walking in this earth. Its the place where the divine has been given full contol in our lives. When the devine has that control all the earthly cares and and anxieties will pass away.If we open up to the power of the resurrected Christ that lives in us I believe we will reach that place in Christ where we will always be in the place of peace. Jesus said in John 15:7: If ye abide in me,and my words abide in you,you will ask what you desire,and it will be given you. Living in that abiding presence of Christ brings us into that place where we can keep our carnal nature under subjection and live the true life of Christ before this sin infested world.When you think about the course that Pauls life took after his coversion on the road of Damascus you have to see his surrendered life to the presence of the ressurected Christ within him. You and I must be the epistle of Christ upon the earth to be read by all men. The episle of Christ is a living power in our mortal flesh making alive the very presence of Christ visible to all who we come in contact with. May the Lord keep you healthy and blessed in the abundance of His grace.I have been praying this prayer for a few months know I would like to share it with you in closing out this session "Father have your way: Do not let my human will spoil your divine plan for my life:Father take charge of me today, in such away that I will be wholly on the alter for your service.We must be dedicated to the will of God. From Pastor Ken

Psalms 91:16

Good evening and praise the Lord everybody. I want to finish the thoughts on Psalms 91 so lets look at verse 16. "With long life will I satisfy him,and show him my salvation. Here we are given the promise of long life as we abide in the Lord and in His presence. I believe the deeper we draw into the Lord God, the more his life becomes ours. What I mean is the more intimate we become with God and Christ the more of their presence and power begins to reign in our lives. When we truly commit to Gods way of living and doing his will, I believe it will open the door to a glourious presence of God that will reign in us and create His life with in us. In Deuteronmy 34:7 " THe word says "And Moses was 120 years old when he died: his eye was not dim nor his natural force abated.To me this was because Moses lived before the LORD day and night. He walked in the presence of the Lord doing His will. Long life belongs to the believer just as much as it did to Moses. The next portion of this verse says "And I will show him my salvation. You and I walk in that salvation his name is Jesus. In John 14:6 Jesus says these words "I am the way,the truth,and the life,no man cometh unto the Father,but by me. The fullness of the salvation promised to us is provided to us in and through our relationship with Jesus. The more of Jesus we let live in us the greater the revelation of what our salvation is all about. We are the redeemed of the Lord. He is the greater one living in us. For the power of the greater one to be displayed in our lives we must be wlling to surrender our will over to the will of God. In Isaiah chapter 1 verse 19 "We find these words "If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: When I read these words I had to look and think about what I was doing was I truly Willing and obedient or was I just willing? Many of us are willing but not obedient to do all that God ask us to do. I believe unless we become willing and obedient we will miss out on alot of what God has planed for our lives. Its one thing to be wlling, but its another to be totaly surrendered to the obedience. Through our salvation in Jesus we have all the power we need on the inside of us to be obedient on to all that God asks of us. In closing think about these words from this grand old hymn " I surrender all,all to Jesus I surrender all. Have we truly surendered all? From Pastor Ken

Psalms 91:15 Part2

Praise the Lord everybody and may the richly bless you. Lets look at the second I will.
2.)I WILL BE WITH HIM IN TROUBLE!!!!
When we read this you and I have to hear the voice of our heavenly Father saying to us I am with you no matter what is coming at you. We are to hear him say I have given you the way out of trouble, I have sent you my son, through him I will always be with you. Listen to the definition of the word trouble from Websters Dictionary.1.To disturb 2.To distress 3.To busy 4.Distress 5.Aggitation 6. Affliction 7.Labor. A s we look at these definition we can see what the Father is saying no matter what is going on I am with you. Which leads us into the promise of the next I will.
3. I WILL DELIVER HIM AND HONOR HIM!!!
This I will says I will deliver him. It is sad but many of us just fail to see Gods promise to deliver us from the troubles that come at us. God promised to deliver us and He kept that promise listen to the the words of Psalm 107:20"He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destuctions. notice it says their destructions meaning more than one so no matter what the enemy is trying to throw at us God our Father has sent our deliverence. Listen to the words of John 3:16"For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever beleiveth in him should not parish,but have everlasting life. If you are a whosoever the promise is right there He sent us our deliverence in and through his son. We are the redeemed of the LORD!!! Every where we turn somebody is trying to give an answer to the problems we are facing today,every politician is trying to give us the answer, but there is only one answer it is Jesus the Son Of God. The answers we seek are in the WORD of GOD and our relationship to it. When ever a person or persons,or a nation gets to the point where they think they dont need God or His Word thats when you will no longer have the protective hand of God upon you. in closing today hear the word of the Lord from John 1:1,14"In the begining was the WORD,and the WORD was with GOD,and the WORD was GOD."14:"And the WORD was made flesh and dwelt among us,(and we beheld his glory,the glory as of the only begotten of the father,)full of grace and truth. Jesus is that WORD and he was sent to deliver,heal and protect those who would only beleive. May the Lord shine his light upon us that we might truly begin to see through the cloud of darkness that the enemy trys to cloud our way with. From Pastor Ken.

Psalms 91:15

Good morning and praise the Lord our God for his wonderful love he imparts to us and for his abounding grace. Psa.91:15 "He shall call upon me, and I will answer him, I will be with him im trouble,I will deliver him and honor him. Notice how many times the term I will is in this verse. Three times the Father makes the point of letting us know He will be there for us. Lets look at the first one.
1. I WILL ANSWER HIM: This is Gods word to us spoken to us by the power of the Holy Spirit through the writng of the psalmist. God our Father says "He shall call upon me and I will answer him. God our Father is letting us know if we call upon him he will hear us and answer us. Jesus spoke the same promise to us in John 14:13-14 "And whatsoever you ask the Father in my name,that will I do,that the Father may be glorified in the Son."If ye ask anything in my name I will do it. I think that in many cases of unanswered prayer its because that the devil trys to convince us that we are unworthy of receiving an answer to our prayers. WE need to realize that in our relationship with Christ we have become worthy to have our payers answered by the Father. Jesus said he will do it what ever we ask him in prayer. We need to only believe it. Listen to the word of the LORD from Mark 11:24"Therfore I (Jesus) say (to) you,What things soever ye desire,when ye pray,believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. You and I must believe that the momemt we bring our petition before the Lord in payer through the name of Jesus he hears us and answers us. Does this not agree with what the psalmist said to us. He meaning you and I shall call upon me and I (GOD) will answer him. May the Lord Bless you and Keep you in His awsome arms of Love. From Pastor Ken

Psalms 91:14

Hello and praise the Lord.What a mighty God we serve. Psalms 91:14 "Because he hath set his love upon me,therefore will I deliver him I will set him on high,because he hath known my name. Notice these words "Because he hath set his love upon me" Have we really set our love upon the Lord? To me when a person really loves someone and has set there love towards that person, they devote themselves to making that love true and solid.I believe every child of God must have devoted love toward God. This type of love does not put itself before the will and purpose of God. What I mean is that God must be first and foremost in our lives. Seeking his will and purpose for our lives.The question each and every one of us need to consider here is this. Where is the focus of our love.Is it on God and what he has planned for us or is it on self and self gratfication.To set our love upon God we must give up our self will. We must surrender to his will. For most of us to surrender our will is hard because we have been taught all our lives that we must be in control. We have the idea if I surrender my will I will be weak. I beleive that once we decide to surrender our will over to the will of God we will find a place of peace like we have never known.we will find that place where fear will not be a part of our lives the scripture says that "There is no fear in love;but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment: And he that feareth is not made perfect in love. When we surrender to God his perfected love starts to manifest in our lives the more we surrender the richer the love. I ask you again where is the focus of your love? God Bless You. From Pastor Ken.

Psalms91:13

Good morning everybody and praise the Lord our God. I just want to praise ;the Lord for all the love and mercy He showers down on all of us.For His arms of protection that embrace all his children. As we look into verse thirteen this morning we are going to see that God has given us a command to stand up against the enemy.91:13"Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder;the young lion and the dragon,shalt thou trample under feet. We as beleivers have been given the authority to do exactly what the Psalmist has revealed to us here. Jesus gave us the authority when he spoke these words in Luke 10:19"Behold I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions,and over all the power of the enemy:and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Jesus is talking here and he has said I give you power over the enemy. You might ask how? He has given us the beleiver his name and told us to go forth in his name. In Mark 16:17-18 Jesus tells us to go forth in his name. Listen to the Words of Jesus to us." And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils;they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents;and if they drink any deadly thing,it shall not hurt them;they shall lay hands on the sick,and they shall recover. Jesus gave us His name and if we believe in that name and all that it represents we will walk in the power of the resurrected Christ,we will do the works that he did. The one thing the enemy of our soul fears is the name of Jesus. At the name of Jesus every demon in hell fears and trembles. And when that name is spoken from the lips of a believer who knows his rights and privileges in Christ the power of the Almighty will be manifested. And sickness wuill have to flee, and demons have to flee. You and I must do what it says in James 4:7"Submit yourselves therefore unto God. Resist the devil,and he will have to flee. You and I must surrender to the will of GOD when we do the abillity to resist the enemy becomes powerful in our lives. You and I are the redeemed of the LORD he did not leave us power less. HE gave us his name JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! have a blessed day in the LORD our God. From Pastor Ken

Psalms91:11-12

Good morning and praise the LORD!!! He is worthy to be PRAISED!!!!Verses 11-12"For he shall give his angels charge over thee,to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands,lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Oh what a promise from our Father God. You and I are encamped about by the angels of the LORD, they are there to protect and shield us. I personaly beleive we are surronded on all sides by the angels of the LORD. I have never seen them but never the less I beleive they are there. I beleive the Word of God and according to Hebrews 1:14 they are there for us who are heirs of salvation"Are they not all ministering spirits,sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? Now listen to this verse from the amplified translation:"Are not the angels all ministering spirits(servents)sent out in the service{of God for the assistance]of those who are to inherit salvation. Think about it what a safety net God has around us as we walk upright before the Lord. The lord has promised us that if we follow after his truths. He will place an encampment of angels all aroud us and on all sides of us. I remember growing up my grandmother would tell me all the time that I had a gaurdian angel assigned to me by the lord and his job was to watch over me. Well the LORD says here in thses passgaes of scripture that he has given His angels charge over us. In this I am just sharing with you what I personally beleive. God sent us his only begotten Son and If we will beleive in him and confess his Lordship in are lives He is there with us at all times. Everything God has pronmised the beleiver in the word is ours but we have to be servents of the Most High. If you think about it God was always with the nation Isreal and he protected them and kept them safe. However when they would forget Him and start follwing the ways of the nations around them they would tie his hands and he would be unable to shield them and protect them because they chose to walk out from under the covering of the LORD. You and I have a covering his name is Jesus the Son Of God. He is there protecting us and shielding us but if we choose to walk out from under that covering we also tie Gods hands in our lives also. Along with this think about these words from 2 Chronicles7:14"If my people,which are called by my name,shall humble themselves,and pray,and seek my face,and turn from there wicked ways;then will I here from heaven,and will forgive their sin,and will heal their land. Notice the promise He will forgive our sins and heal our land. The bottom line is He will be there for us with forgiveness and healing. Praise his Blessed Name!!! May the LORD bless thee and keep thee in his arms of love and peace. From Pastor Ken.

Psalms91:10

Good morning everybody and praise the Lord our God. He is from everlasting to everlasting the great Iam.This verse brings the promise to us of protection and healing."There shall no evil befall thee,niether shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. Websters definition of the word dwell is:To live in a place;to reside;to hang on with fondness;to continue. Here is Gods promise to you and I if we stay in his will and dwell in the secret place,that place of safety and refuge that no matter whats going on no evil can penetrate that secret place. Listen again to the first verse of this Psalm from the amplified translation."HE WHO dwells in the secret place of the MOST HIGH shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty[WHOSE POWER NO FOE CAN WITH STAND]. HERE IS THE PROMISE OF DIVINE PROTECTION THE KEY IS WE HAVE TO GET SETLLED IN OUR HEARTS THAT THIS IS FOR TODAY AND BELONGS TO EVERY BELIEVE!!!! I BELIEVE THE MORE WE SURRENDER OURSELVES OVER TO THE WILL OF GOD THE MORE WE WILL REALIZE THE POWER OF DWELLING IN THAT SECRET PLACE WITH HIM. Now listen to verse ten from the amplified translation:"There shall no evil befall you, nor any plague or calamity come near your tent. I would like to ask you to think about this for a moment. Where is our tent? The answer to me is this body we dwell in it is our tent it is the covering over our spirit man. The word says no evil or calamity will come near your tent. Some ones thinking well if thats true why do people get sick? I can not totally answere that question all I can do is share my personal conviction and that is if we let ourselves be drawn away from the presence of the Lord we open the door for the enemy of our sole to attack us due to the fact we have got out from under the protective covering of the Lord Our God. The bottom line is its up to us where we want to live and how we want to live. If we choose the life of God and follow after that life I beleive we will see the promises of God fulfilled in our lives. You and I have to commit our lives to the Lord and when we do He will be there with healing,protection,and deliverence. May the lord Bless you and keep you safe. From Pastor Ken

Psalms 91:8

Praise the Lord everybody this is the day the Lord has made. WE are living in the time of great expectansy. For the Lord our God is working strong on our behalf. In this verse of Psalm 91 we are given an insight to where we will be when the Lord returns.If we are abiding in the presence of the Almighty he says" Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.Here is Gods promise that you and I will only be wittness to the reward of the wicked we will be away from the devestation and destruction that is going to be poured out upon the wicked. I like the way the amplified translation of this verse reads:"Only a spectator shall you be [yourself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High] we will be in that place of protection and peace held in the embrace of the Father God. We will be secure in the presence of God the place where no foe can enter. You and I have the opportunity to walk and dwell in that holy plce of Gods glory right know, but it takes that absolute surrender to God. You and I have to give our will over to the will of God. Just look around you today where is the love for God today in our nation. God has always blessed this nation until we started taking Him out of our lives and the lives of our children. Everybody is trying to find an answer to whats wrong with America. The answer is we need to turn this nation back to God. We need to put Him back in our schools and back in the everyday parts of our lives. We are told we will only be spectators to the reward of the wicked. Why will that be? Here is the answer verse 9" Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge,even the most High,thy habitation. You and I have made our lives one that honors the LORD and because of it we are dwelling in the secret place of His safety net. He reminds us in the is verse that He is our place refuge,and our hiding place.When I meditate upon this verse I think of what Jesus said in John14:23" Jesus answerd and said unto him,If a man love me,he will keep my words:and my Father will love him,and we will come unto him,and make our abode with him. You and I have the Father and the Son living in us through the presence of the Holy Spirit in us. For we have made the LORD our habitation. Jesus was sent to redeem us and bring us into that place of peace and joy in the LORD our God. Have a Blessed and Joyful day in the LORD!!!! From Pastor Ken

Psalms 91:5-7

Praise the Lord what a glorious day this is. For this is the day that the Lord Hath made I will be glad and rejoice in it.As we look at the verse in Psalms 91:5-7'we will discover some powerful truths we must keep an open heart to the WROD of GOD."Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness;nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side,ten thousand at thy right hand;BUT IT SHALL NOT COME NIGH THEE. In the last post I closed it with the Word of the Lord from 2Timothy 1:7"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear;but of power,and of love,and of a sound mind. Notice the verses in the above Psalms are all about living free from fear. The Lord is letting us know in the Words of the Psalmist that no matter what is going on around us that it can not come nigh us. The biggest reason the enemy of our soul can get to us is becuase he uses fear to try to trap us. What is fear? According to 2Timothy it is a spirit. Howerver he also says that it does not come from God so if the spirit of fear does not come from God then where does it come from? For years now I have prayed Psalms 91 before I ever leave my house, I declare the promises of this great Psalm over all my family and over the body of Christ that I serve I strongly believe in the protective power of the WORD of GOD spoken in these verses.If you and I really meditate upon it we will discover that Jesus is the fulfillment of this Psalm is not Jesus our protector,healer and deliverer. Is not this what this Psalm is all about healing,protection, and deliverence. Just think you and I have the promise that no matter what is around us it can not come nigh those who are living under the protective presence of the Almighty God our Father. For Gods perfect love casteth out all fear where the full presence of God is allowed to dwell He is there and darkness can not reign over light. Jesus is the very light in us and darkness can not reign over the light of Jesus that lives and reigns in us. You and I do not have to give into the fears around us all we have to do is stand on the WORD of GOD and PROCLAIM IT ALLOWED!!!! Start Shouting Your VICTORY IN CHRIST. Declare to the enemy who you are in Christ. Make the Enemy of your Soul Tremple at the Power of Resurrected Christ living in you. ONLY BELIEVE!!!!! May the LORD richly bless your day. From Pastor Ken

Psalms 91:4

Good morning and praise the Lord whos mercys endure forever.Psalms 91:4"He shall cover thee with his feathers,and under his wings shalt thou trust:his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Here in this verse the Lord declares his protective care for those who belong to him. After He has delivered us from the snare of the fowler He pulls us up into his arms of protection. When we take time to mdeitate on this we can see His love flowing down around us forming a cloud of safety all around us. The Lord is the one who holds us and keeps us. Its the place of peace and safety from the turmoil that trys so hard to engulf us and rob us of peace and joy. When we are under the protective covering of the Lord we can take on the attitude of no fear of the enemy. The next few verses tell us this listen to the word of the Lord. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;nor for the arrow that flieth by day;Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness;nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. Notice where you are when all this is going on you are under the protective embrace of the Lord God.Verse seven A thousand shall fall at thy side,and ten thousand at thy right hand; pay close attention to these next few words of this verse:BUT IT SHALL NOT COME NIGH THEE!!!! Can you see it,it can be all around you but if you are under the protective covering of the Lord it cant come near you. You and I are under the precious blood of Jesus and the glory of his presence. What a place to be!!!The word of God says in 2Timothy 1:7"For God Hath not given us the spirit of fear,but of power,and of love,and of a sound mind. You and I have been given the name of Jesus to stand up against the enemy with. Reread these verse and picture your self under the protective embrace of your loving heavenly Father.May the Lord richly bless your day. From Pastor Ken

Psalms91:3

Good morning and praise the Lord."Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.Lets look at the word snare it is defined as any thing that traps. In this verse we are given revelation into the fact that God said he would deliver us from the snares of the fowler.We need to realize that the fowler is the enemy of our soul and that is non other than satan. God has promised to make the way for us to keep out of the snares of the fowler. In one way we have that promise is where the word says the steps of a righteous man are ordered of the Lord. If we follow the will of God the Father he has our steps already laid out and he will keep us from the traps or snares the devil will try to set for us. As I think upon this verse I cant help but think about the term noisome pstilence. I have come to believe that these are all the little thoughts of doubt and unbelief that we are tempted with everyday. God says he will deliver us from them. He will do this through our faithfullnes to his Word. The Word is the answer to these attacks it takes the word to defeat the enemy. If we dont know the Word than we wont no the battle course that the Father has given us through the son that will bring the victory. Jesus is the victory in our lives that enables us to over come the world.1 John 5:4" For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world:and this is the victory that overcometh the world, EVEN OUR FAITH. How do we do it by our faith and trust in the Word of God. This psalm is the loaded with protection and deliverence and healing all we have to do is beleive it. I personally beleive that the promises in this Psalm belong to us today because Jesus is the fulfillment of this Psalm He is our protector,our healer,and our deliverer. May the Lord richly bless your day. from Pastor Ken

Psalms91:2

Good morning and praise the Lord who is Almighty and powerful.I would like to continue to share with you on the 91st Psalm.Verse 2: I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge, and my fortress: My God in Him will I put my trust. As we read this verse we need to see several things that we are called to do.
1.We are called to declare that Jesus is Lord in our lives.For I will say of the Lord. We have to make known by our confession that the Lord is my protector.
2.He is my refuge and my fortress: We are to stand up and declare that we have a secret place of refuge and safety. A hiding place where no foe can enter.According to the definition given in websters dictionary a fortress is a fortified place;stronghold:a place of security. You and I have a stronghold a fortified place that is all around us if we are truly giving God the Lord ship of our lives.
3. We must absolutley put all our trust in Him.My God in Him will I put my trust. What is trust?The amplified translation of this second verse will give us a good look at trust.I will say of the LORD,He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my GOD:on HIM I lean and rely,and in HIM I[confidently] trust!!! We have to be people of cnfidence in the love that the Father has for us and have confidence in his written word that is before us. He sent his word to heal and deliver and keep us in the safety of his love and grace. That word became flesh and walked among us and paid the price for our redemption. Jesus is your ark safety and when you and I put our full trust in that promise we will see the mighty hand of God moving in our lives. May the LORDS blessing be on you always. from Pastor Ken.

Psalms 91:1

Good morning and praise the Lord. Iam excited about sharing with you what the Lord has been sharing with me about this great Psalm. May the Lord grant you revelation knowledge in this. Psalm 91:1"He that dwelleth in the secret place of Most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Abiding in His shadow. What does it mean? The shadow of God is His presence, His light, and His glory that He embraces us with. That glorious light that radiates from God to his children. To abide in this enables us to dwell in a place where we are surrounded by the protective covering of God. To dwell comes from the Hebrew word yasab Which means:to sit down, to remain, to settle in, in the sence of taking up a homestead or staking out a claim and resisting all claim jumpers to posses a place and live there in. Notice the part resisting all claim jumpers. In the word of God we are told to submit ourselves unto God resist the devil and he will flee.(James 4:7. Why will he flee? Could it be that when we put up a resistence that the presence of God appears and the devil can not stand the presence of God.This first verse gives us great insight to what can be ours if we commit our lives to the living God and doing all that he asks us to do. I love the amplified translation of this verse listen to it:" He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most high shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty whose power no foe can with stand. What a promise for you and I a place of protection and safety that no foe can stand up against. I beleive that every beleiver can abide in this place but it will take a life of total surrender to the purpose and will of God for our lives. Living in the abiding presence of God to me is to be embraced by the shielding glory of God the Father walking in that light just as Jesus our high priest did on the earth. Jesus gave us a good picture of abiding in the Fathers presence. Jesus speaks of a vine and a branch where the father is the husbandman. God is the one who protects us and purges the unrighteous nature away from our lives, and then keeps them from our lives by the power of the written word.Jesus is the written word living in you and I producing the glory of the Father in us. Be blessed and walk in the healing glory of God.From Pastor Ken

AMOS 5:4

Well praise the lord. I want to apologize for not posting before this but I have not been able to get into post until today. I dont know what was wrong still tying to figure the computer out.Amos 5:4" For thus saith the Lord unto the house of IsreaL,SEEK YE ME,AND YE SHALL LIVE:look at what God our Father is saying to the house of Isreal about how to have life. He says seek me.I know that it says house of Isreal but what if God is also giving us insight to how to have the abundant life.Here is a question that you and I need to ask ourselves as we look into the mirror. How inportoant is it for me to seek God. Are we ever looking for that deep intimate relationship with god the Father. Webster defines the word seek like this. 1.To search for.
2.To solicit.
3.To have recourse to. Lets just take the first one to search for. What does a person do to search for something they really want. Most will pull out all the stops and go on quest to find what they are looking. They will develope a deep hunger for it and can not rest till they find it. I wonder how many of us have that same hunger for a deep relationship for God.Or do we only hunger for God when we are in trouble when things are going wrong. And then when He gets us out of the trouble how do we continue after Him. In this fast pace we live in today we just barely take time to say good morning to Him. Jesus told us in Matt. 6:33"But seek ye first the Kingdom of God,and his righteuosness;and all these things shall be added unto you.To live is not just getting by. Its about having a peace in the midst of the storms we face, its knowing that no matter what it looks like my God is always there. Listen to these words of Jesus as recorde in the 28th chapter of Matt.28:20"and lo,I am with you alway,even unto the end of the world. Jesus lets us know as we seek after the things of God we can rest assured that he is always with use we are never alone.Here the word of the Lord from Deuteronomy 4:29-30"But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God,thou shalt find him,if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
"When thou art in tribulation,and all things are come upon thee,even in the latter days,if thou turn to the Lord thy God and shall be obedient unto his voice. WE will not truly know how to be obedient to his voice if we are not willing to seek him with our whole heart and soul. If there ever was a time in the history of man that he needed to truly seek after the will of God it is know. God Bless you all. From Pastor Ken.

1John 4:19

Good morning everybody and praise the Lord. This verse makes the statement that every one of us need to use to evaluate our relationship with The Father. Lets look at the scripture refrence"WE love him, because he first loved us.Because he first loved us.How did he first love us? To understand this we first have to ask ourselves do we understand the heart of Father God. God is our heavenly Father and he loves us. He loved us so much he sent his only begotten Son Jesus to make the way for us to come into the grace and love of the Father. As I was meditating on this verse for the last few days this is the question that came to me? When you think of a father what do you think of? Here are the thoughts that filled my mind and heart. I beleive these came from the Holy spirit for me to share with all of us.
1.)He works to care for his family. To provide for there well being.
2.)He wants the best for his family. He drives himself day and night to see to it that they can have the best he's able to give.
3.)He is so united to the family that when one of them hurts he hurts.
4.)In many cases he is never praised for for the good things he does, only criticized for his mistakes.
5.)However no matter how many times he's rejected by those he loves, he always comes to their aid when they need him.
Now I ask you. Is this not the Love of God our Father for us. He has always been there for us and no matter how many times we reject him and his love he is there waiting for our return. If you have ever read the parable of the prodigle son you will see the love of the Father God reaching out to you in all the above ways. Hes the Father standing on the porch of heaven looking out to see if that wayward son has come to his senses and has headed for home.I wish to chalenge us all to take time to think about how much the Father has given for us to become his children. May the Lord bless this day for you with health and happiness. From Pastor Ken

Living in the Love of God part3

Good morning and praise the Lord. This truly is a gloroious day of the Lord.Be blessed and may the Lord open the window of heaven and pour out His blessing upon you.Lets look at verse 18 of 1 John chapter4" There is no fear in love;but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. Notice that the word says that there is no fear in love. When you and I make the decision to live in the light of God and walk in the Word of truth and follow the life of Christ the full love of God will manifest in us. In that full love of God there is no fear because we know in whom we belong. Gods peace floods our soul like a river. When you and I confessed our sins to the Lord and asked Jesus to become Lord and Master of our lives we opened the door to that love and when that love came in it casteth out the spirit of fear that dominanted our lives before Christ. Why would God want to get fear out of our lives? the answer is right here in this verse{because fear hath torment]. When fear dominates a persons life they live in torment all the time. The fear torments and creates aggitations in there physical well being. You and I were recreated in the life and image of God at our new birth. This means that our spirit man was delivered from the powers of darkness that once dominated our life. Fear was apart of our lives from the day we were born. And if we were raised in the atmosphere of fear it took control of our lives. But when Jesus came in through the agent of the Holy Spirit that light casteth out the spirit of fear that once dominanted us and held us in darkness. Fear is a real enemy. Listen to this passgae of scripture"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear,but of power,and of love,and of a sound mind.[2Timothy 1:7]Did you catch what the word says God did not give us a spirit of fear.If fear did not come from God then where does it come from? It came from satan. Just look at Adam and Eve before the fall they walked with God talked with God and lived in His presence but one day when God came to the garden to talk with them they hid from Him in fear. What changed they commited high treason and broke covenant with God opening the door to the dominating spirit of fear. And from that point on every man born of women was born with that spirit of fear. But here is the joy Jesus destroyed the power of satan with His victory over sin. And you and I when we were born again was released from that spirit and received the spirit of the Lord that destroyed the power of darkness over our lives. Whom the Son sets free is free indeed. From this day forward remember fear can not contol you if you are a born again child of GOD for the perfect love of God has casted out the spirit of fear. Have a blessed and healthy day in Jesus only beleive the Word and live in the freedom Jesus has provided for us. From Pastor Ken
