We listen to, hear about, see all, the bad things happening
and some of us (our opinion) look toward a president that we
didn[''t vote for and wish others hadn't
And let fear come in.. God did not give us a spirit of Fear
but of love, peace and a sound mind
He made us victorius thru Christ
We need to keep looking UP to Jehova, God, and not around
at the so called bad thing that are around us.... stand on and
believe that HE IS and HE IS the rewarder of those that fallow HIM
and He is Faithful that promised us his work
Heb 10;23
As for out wayward president the word no where says to critize or badmouth hm
but to pray for him
Lets do it and also Read 2 Chro. 7:14
it is good advice
in His service

sow in the time of harvest
Sow in time of Famine
What is Famine?The first thing we thing of I believe is Starvation, Right??
According to Webster and I like this one myself Famine means lack of anything
.Name some of the things that we lack today that you feel are important?
Love, Friends, Family, Health, Prosperity, Food, Knowledge, Ethic and Morals, Commitment,
Genesis 26
1. And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.
12. Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him.
IN the land of Gerar there was a famine and Isaac sowed in that land, in other words he sowed in a time of famine. What did Isaac sow, grain for food because that is what the NEED WAS!
Shouldn’t we do the same thing we sow when is needed!
How do we Sow?
Luke 6; 38. Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.The word says that we give what we have need of so that we well (not might) but will receive back. AMEN?
Food- Proverbs 22 9. He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.:
Knowledge- Proverbs 9 9. Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.: a teacher learns as they teach
Friends-Proverbs 25: 21. If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
22. For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee
Prosperity-Proverbs 28: 27. He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
(Explain this he that Hides\ his eyes) Pretends he/she doesn’t see!
Health- Mark 16;18 they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. As well as minister the word of healing to those in need of healing. As we minister the words of healing it builds our faith, to receive our own.
Love, Friends, Family-Matthew 5:43-48 tells us how to treat others that might not be in the best standing with us or even members of our families.
44. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
As we show love it will return to us… REMEMBER it might take awhile but if we stand fast in our love toward them it will come to pass.
Commentment- 62. And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
James 5: 12. But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation. Stand by what you said you would do and be an example
Ethic and Morals-Mark 16: 15. And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Again this is a show by example and word and receive back, as we minister and show our (CHRIST IN ME) the more we ourselves will grow in that area)
Last but not least is
Matthew 5; 48. Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
PERFECT- complete (in various applications of labor, growth, mental and moral character Or Mature.
Proverbs 3: 28. Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.

A lesson for those that feel the need to fulfill Mark 16th chapter and go into all the world
it is also my sunday school lesson for Aug 2,2009
it is also my sunday school lesson for Aug 2,2009
Mark 16; 15. And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18. 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.
19. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
What is that called today is it not EVANGELISING
Are we not called to evangelize the world-YES
THE NEXT QUESTION IS:
How do we? Can we?
Answer: first lets go back in time and see how it was done long ago without computers, I pods, electronic speakers, etc.
Acts 19 (talking about Paul) 8. And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the
9. But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
10. And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
Paul went to the church and for three months ministered to them and even than they refused Paul’s message so he left and went to the school of Tyrannus (an Ephesians) (stronges says a school was probably a place of rest or vacation) he was there two yrs ministering the word and by that the WORD (LOGOS) of God spread through Asia. With out telephones flax or any other communication machine but only by mouth
(HARD TO BELIEVE BUT TRUE)
NOW- how did they minister (as we say back in the day) let us look to the Word and find out.
1: Large meeting such as some ministers that we know about now and in the past…. ( Amy McPherson had 20,000 in her tents some times)
Matt 5:
1. And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2. And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
Jesus spoke to multitudes from a mountain….. Today a large stage with mikes etc
2: Church services
Acts 19: 8. And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the
Revivals in the church as Kenny Large and many others
3: Something the Mormons have down pat== House to house visitations
Acts 20: 20. And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house,
That is needed today I believe
4: Last one- One on One
Acts8: 4. Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.
They preached the word everywhere they went to who ever they could
From this what is the most effective way to reach the world and who is it
Anyone want to guess ===YOU===
Surveys show that most come to the Lord through friends and individuals. We see the large crusades and people going forth but the majority are from people. An old saying is “ I can make a difference in YOUR world IF you will let me.
Are you interested in changing the world around you?
Are you interested in living under the mandate to take the Word to YOUR world and made disciples
INTERESTED: here are some suggestions as to what you need to do to be in that position.
1. Be available – let your walk and talk line up together and be there for whoever or whatever is needed
2. Be normal- be more attractive to the unbeliever or some Christians for us to act normal not turning into a Pseudospiritual religious goof totally disconnected from everyday life.
3. Be personnel = to become totally effective we must show that we are totally interested in THE PERSON or PERSONS not as just another evangelistic target
4. Be Ready and patient== sometimes the Lord will send people across our path even when we are not totally studied, prayed up and prepared. So we need to be ready at all times. WE MUST be patient with the person regardless of the response we receive from them.
5. Be Kind= be a person that others want to be around be nice, kind generous and servant hearted. How about a smile instead of looking like you dog died, a friendly handshake, hug, or a breath mint goes a long way toward opening a door. But at the appropriate time and place. Such as when it interferes with your work at a work place etc.
6. Be yourself= don’t be FAKEY, and remember God wants to work through you, He has called you and He has equipped you, so let him lead also.
7. Be prepared 8. . for opposition- have you ever ran into that, I am sure you have. Be Prepared knowing this that satan will come against you in ever way he can. Such as Deception (that is not my calling) inadequacy (I don’t know how) and the biggest FEAR (of being offensive or concerned with what others think) Remember that Isa 54: 17 no weapon formed against me shall prosper. Also 1 john 4;4 Greater is HE that is in me than he that is in the world.
8. Be Baptized in the Holy Spirit- Acts 1: 8 the purpose of the Holy Spirit is to empower us to be witnesses of the GOSPEL through the world the gospel to every creature.
16. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18. 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.

THE BATTLE IS YOURS!
Matt 18; . 19. Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
If two of us agree what will happen. Our Father in heaven will do what we agree on. RIGHT??
SPECIAL NOTE? Gen 11: 6. And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
When the people are ONE nothing will be with held from them. BUT
There is an exception- what is it?
When it involves a person or a group of peoples.
Lets go to-- Mark 2: 3. And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.
4. And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
5. When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. When Jesus saw whose faith? The four men.
11. I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.
12. And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all;
The faith of the four brought the man to HEALING<>
Though we can stand with a person or family etc for a need of faith it is in the end a personnel thing, a personnel battle, war. AGREE
It is YOU that must put the end faith to work it is you that has to receive the end results of THAT FAITH>
Eph 6: 13. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
WHO WHO must put on the armour of God and WHO must do the standing to reaceive the results.
We nor I, can do it for each of us it is ME that has to do. To receive!!
Mark 11; 23. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
AGAIN: Who is it that must say, Who is it that can not doubt in their heart, Who is it that says what shall come to pass, and Who shall have whatsoever THEY say………YOU me
As the little song says ITS ME ITS ME OH LORD STANDING IN THE NEED OF PRAYER. Not my brother nor my sister but me OH Lord.
James 4; 7. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
One more time who is it that must SUBMIT and resist the enemy so that he will flee from them………ITS ME YOU the one in need.
AT the same time as in Exod 17 : 11-12 Aaron and Hur held up the arms of Moses when he was weary. It is up to each of us to help hold up and strengthen each other when they grow weak and weary until they are strengthen again and can do it on their own.
All this works only one way and that is faith ( confidence, assurance) in what the word of Jehovah (God) the RHEMA says to us about that SISTUTATION.
NOW lets see a good example of this in the Word.
Go to- Acts 12:
1. Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.
2. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
3. And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also.
SO here was PETER in the hands of Herod the king, and Peter knew that Herod had beheaded John, and the same fate was coming his way tomorrow. NOTE:
Verse 6. And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison
Can you imagine yourself asleep knowing that tomorrow you would be killed and as of now there was no means of escape …..chained between two guards. And ME asleep…… I think not
SO HOW DID PETER manage to be so relaxed that he could sleep knowing that tomorrow was his last day alive??
Lets go to-- John 21: 18. Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.
19. This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.
Jesus speaking to Peter telling him how he would die, and it was by the cross.
So here was Peter before Herod and was being told that tomorrow his head was to be removed from his body… can you imagine Peter asking Herod, now tell me again. What is going to happen tomorrow-- YOU king are going to have me beheaded is that Right? YES YES tomorrow you will die by the sword removing your head…..
You think that maybe Peter went to the cell with a little bit of Joy (Nehi 8;10) in his heart, maybe even singing a little song that “I am a winner, I will conquer, the ENEMY is going to lose again” I will not die tomorrow because Jesus told me so.
Just like Peter we should have the word of God established in our hearts and when the enemy comes against us WE can have peace knowing that HE IS FAITHFUL (Heb 13;10) That promised us. WE WIN and OVERCOME because Jesus Said so thru the Rhema word spoken to us in FAITH (Rom 10:17)
Matt 18; . 19. Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
If two of us agree what will happen. Our Father in heaven will do what we agree on. RIGHT??

Our Priesthood
Hope you enjoy this...... it is my Sunda lettson in may 2009
Our Priesthood
1 Cor 3; 16. Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
What does that mean to you? To be the temple of GOD and have the Holy Spirit live in you?
To operate in the TEMPLE of GOD or for the temple to be in us we MUST BE A PRIEST. ARE YOU A PRIEST? ARE YOU???
1 peter 2: 9. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;\\
The Jewish priesthood abruptly ended when the Temple was destroyed in 70AD, but the priesthood had already been transferred to a moveable temple (a living temple-Jesus the Christ)
When John Baptized Jesus in the Jordan River, in 30AD it full filled the
Procedure for transferring the priesthood from a priest to HIS son.
1. Lev 8;6 the son must be washed in water-
John Baptized Jesus in water.
2. Lev 8;12 He must be anointed with oil
The Holy Spirit dove descended on Jesus signifying the ANOINTING
3. The High priest publicly declared that this was His son upon who the anointing was Placed
A voice from Heaven declared that this is MY BELOVED SON
Thus the Priesthood was transferred to Jesus.
INTERESTING FACTS. That occurred after the Baptism of JESUS in 30AD , 40 yrs before the destruction of the Jewish Temple.
1. On the day of Atonement the high priest would reach down into a urn
And pull out two stones (one white and one black)(to chose which goat was for the Lord) when the white one came up in the right hand of the priest it was a sign of good. After the baptism of Jesus it never came up in the right hand again.
2. On the day of Atonement the priest used three scarlet (red) straps on for the horn of the scapegoat and one for the neck of the Goat of the Lord, and the third on fastened to the door of the temple. When one on the door turned white it fulfilled ISA 1; 18. Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
This never happened again.
3. In the Holy Place the seven branched candlestick (Menorah) before 30AD the western candle (the closest one to the Holy of Holies) was the first one cleaned and than the rest of the candles were lit from it and it (the western candle) never went out even if the other six did. After 30AD if the other ones went out the western one was the first one to go>
4. At the temple on the altar where animal sacrifices were made after the altar was cleaned it only took two logs to keep the fire going all day but after 30AD more logs had to be added
5. Before 30AD the temple priest were given a piece of Showbread from the temple the size of a pea and they were satisfied.….. After 30AD it was the size of a bean.
These indicated that a change had taken place as far as the temple work and the priest.
Jesus was our high priest while HE walked on the earth but after His death on the cross HE transferred the priesthood to us.
Revelation 1: 5. And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6. And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
If we were made priest than wouldn’t we have the authority of the Priest to do the work of the priest. To do the commandments of
Mark 16; 15. And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18. 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.
19. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
We don’t personnel need someone to go to the Father in our behalf
Heb 4; 16. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
We have that right/authority to come boldly before the Throne of Grace.
Also as priest we have the authority and the power to do the ordnances of the priest in the Church. We can baptize, serve communion, take up tithes, etc.
We can do all but fulfill the positions of the PASTOR, or the five fold ministry because these are special gifts or callings of the Lord.
Why than did a friend of mine, Bob, have to get someone to come into the church where he was the (PASTOR????) to baptize or serve communion? Because these are ordnances, rules, of that church organization. AND he had to obey their rules of conduct.
Our Priesthood
1 Cor 3; 16. Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
What does that mean to you? To be the temple of GOD and have the Holy Spirit live in you?
To operate in the TEMPLE of GOD or for the temple to be in us we MUST BE A PRIEST. ARE YOU A PRIEST? ARE YOU???
1 peter 2: 9. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;\\
The Jewish priesthood abruptly ended when the Temple was destroyed in 70AD, but the priesthood had already been transferred to a moveable temple (a living temple-Jesus the Christ)
When John Baptized Jesus in the Jordan River, in 30AD it full filled the
Procedure for transferring the priesthood from a priest to HIS son.
1. Lev 8;6 the son must be washed in water-
John Baptized Jesus in water.
2. Lev 8;12 He must be anointed with oil
The Holy Spirit dove descended on Jesus signifying the ANOINTING
3. The High priest publicly declared that this was His son upon who the anointing was Placed
A voice from Heaven declared that this is MY BELOVED SON
Thus the Priesthood was transferred to Jesus.
INTERESTING FACTS. That occurred after the Baptism of JESUS in 30AD , 40 yrs before the destruction of the Jewish Temple.
1. On the day of Atonement the high priest would reach down into a urn
And pull out two stones (one white and one black)(to chose which goat was for the Lord) when the white one came up in the right hand of the priest it was a sign of good. After the baptism of Jesus it never came up in the right hand again.
2. On the day of Atonement the priest used three scarlet (red) straps on for the horn of the scapegoat and one for the neck of the Goat of the Lord, and the third on fastened to the door of the temple. When one on the door turned white it fulfilled ISA 1; 18. Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
This never happened again.
3. In the Holy Place the seven branched candlestick (Menorah) before 30AD the western candle (the closest one to the Holy of Holies) was the first one cleaned and than the rest of the candles were lit from it and it (the western candle) never went out even if the other six did. After 30AD if the other ones went out the western one was the first one to go>
4. At the temple on the altar where animal sacrifices were made after the altar was cleaned it only took two logs to keep the fire going all day but after 30AD more logs had to be added
5. Before 30AD the temple priest were given a piece of Showbread from the temple the size of a pea and they were satisfied.….. After 30AD it was the size of a bean.
These indicated that a change had taken place as far as the temple work and the priest.
Jesus was our high priest while HE walked on the earth but after His death on the cross HE transferred the priesthood to us.
Revelation 1: 5. And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6. And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
If we were made priest than wouldn’t we have the authority of the Priest to do the work of the priest. To do the commandments of
Mark 16; 15. And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18. 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.
19. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
We don’t personnel need someone to go to the Father in our behalf
Heb 4; 16. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
We have that right/authority to come boldly before the Throne of Grace.
Also as priest we have the authority and the power to do the ordnances of the priest in the Church. We can baptize, serve communion, take up tithes, etc.
We can do all but fulfill the positions of the PASTOR, or the five fold ministry because these are special gifts or callings of the Lord.
Why than did a friend of mine, Bob, have to get someone to come into the church where he was the (PASTOR????) to baptize or serve communion? Because these are ordnances, rules, of that church organization. AND he had to obey their rules of conduct.

But I want to run a rescue shop a yard from hell
were we saved to set in a safe peaceful life
or to live dangerously
against the enemy
