Dewey's Daily Cup

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

God Bless you all for stopping by for a CUP today! We love you so much in our Lord.

Thank you all for praying for little Reno, Buffy and I brought him to the Vet early this morning for his surgery.

Sharon and I are touched beyond with the love shown to us, everyday your love shines on us!

I asked by Dear friend Rob Ramseyer if I could share this with you all. I have known Rob for years as a good friend and radio engineer. He sent me a note a couple of years back, that he would fax a copy of the CUP to his Mom in Goshen, Indiana. WOW! What love Rob has for his Mother. What also hit me was that I wonder if Rob’s Mom knew of me when I was at WFRN radio in South Bend/Elkhart. Goshen was just a stone throw from the station on CR 26. The Lord has shown me that Rob’s Mom was a gentle soul. She passed away last week at 94 years of age. I am touched beyond, that she would read the CUP and that we were connected by God that way through her son. Let us learn that love never dies. Let us learn from Rob’s example of sharing the CUP with his Mom. Let us take time for each other.

Surely Goodness and Mercy
shall follow me
all the days of my life and
I shall dwell in the House of the Lord
FOREVER. —Psalm 23

Lois A. Ramseyer
Jan. 5, 1919 – Jan. 19, 2013

Lois A. Ramseyer, 94, of Goshen, was the 6th child born to Allen W. and Anna Inez (Shupe) Kuhns on Jan. 5, 1919, at Harper, Kan. Her first three months were spent in the nursery at Bethel Hospital, Newton, Kan., while her mother was recuperating from pneumonia.

The family moved to LaJunta, Colo., in 1919. She was baptized at age 10 in LaJunta Mennonite Church by Bishops J.A. Heatwole and Allen H. Erb.

She attended LaJunta schools, then Hesston Academy. In the fall of 1943 she entered the three-year program at the Mennonite Hospital School of Nursing in LaJunta. She worked one year at LaJunta Mennonite Hospital; three years at Mennonite Deaconess Hospital, Beatrice, Neb.; and three years in South Korea, following the war.

After her marriage in 1956 to J. Woodrow Ramseyer, she was a homemaker and nurse in Goshen. She met Woodrow in Korea where he was a PAX volunteer under the Mennonite Central Committee Relief Program. At the end of the three-year term, they were married at the MCC headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, by Don McCammon and Norman Wingert.

She is survived by her husband, Woodrow; two daughters, Elizabeth “Beth” (Tim) Robie of Goshen and Sharon (Jon) Sivanich of Mesa, Ari.; a son, Robert Ramseyer of Albuquerque, N. M.; five grandchildren, Ian (Anna) Robie and Emily (Glen) Robie Judd, Scout, Piper and Sawyer Sivanich; three great-grandchildren; and a sister, Miriam (Bob) Liechty of Berne.

Thank you for sharing Rob!

Please pray for Joe Rowe’s Dad who is having heart surgery today.

Please pray for a job for Joseph and for Kathy.

Let us go into prayer for healing of all……comfort of our Lord for all…………..AMEN!!!!!!!!!!

1 Peter 2:24

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.

• Psalm 107:19-21

  Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. He sent forth his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave. Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men.

• Exodus 23:25

  Worship the LORD your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you,

Exodus 15:26

He said, “If you listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, who heals you.”

When we are really tuned into God He plays a sweet concert to us not to loud or to soft to soften our hearts for Him

Here’s a few comments on our revamped web site……..From Grace Cordova, who is a supporter of FGGAM…….

Dewey,
It looks really great! Love the picture and quote about Gods peace. I didn’t get to tarry for I’m getting ready for bed but I look forward to looking and ready it tomorrow! God bless ya’ll! Mitzi

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NKJV)

Thank you Grace and Mitzi! Pastor Paul Holt is a Dear brother in the Lord and took this project on, with input from Sharon and just a bit from me! LOL LOL! Pastior Paul Holt is also a Board member of FGGAM.

This is from my new Dear Friend Lance Niievaard. Sharon and I met lance and his lovely wife Robin at Rock Rio Church! They are missionaries. Thank you for sharing Lance!

Can I tell you about Jesus………………Maybe you have heard of Him? Maybe you have heard some stories about Him? Maybe in Sunday School, Vacation Bible School or in a Pastor’s sermon? Maybe you have read about Him in the Bible and maybe you have done so for years? Maybe you even call Him your Savior?
For 33 years I thought I knew Jesus. Did I really know Him? No, not really. I knew about Jesus. I asked Him to come and live in my heart at the age of five. I considered myself to be a Christian. I read the Bible because I was told to and I would pray. I attended church, served at church and brought our kids up in church. I could tell you what being a Christian was. It was having a personal relationship with Jesus! Did I have one? Looking back now………No! I didn’t.
Out of the blue, the Holy Spirit called me to complete obedience to God and to purity. As I took a couple steps in obedience, directed by His Holy Spirit, Jesus ran to me. He woke me up one night to pray. I got up and went out into the dark living room. I began to worship Him. Sharing what was in my heart for Him. Then I sat in complete silence and listened. Then, God, the Creator of all things, who made the heavens and the earth, spoke to me! He would talk to me and I would talk to Him! He would encourage me, bring me revelation and teach me by His Spirit! I met Jesus!!!!!
Jesus is not a story character. Jesus is not just part of history. Jesus is not dead! He is ALIVE! Jesus is my everything! I have truly found myself in Him! I was created for Him and to KNOW him. Intimately! He is the lover of my soul, the reason for which I live. Jesus died on a cross for me and I give my life for Him, even unto death. Jesus did not remain in a grave. He was raised to life and reigns and rules. Jesus dwells inside me with fullness of Glory! He is not a part of my life, JESUS IS MY LIFE! He talks with me, guides me and continues to reveal who He is to me! For so many years there was very little I could tell you about Jesus. Now, I know Him and not just facts about Him. I get to be a co-heir with Jesus! We have the same Father! Jesus is the Living Son of God! All powerful and ever present. Jesus is love, the Prince of Peace, Wonderful Counselor! Jesus still heals the sick and wants to! Jesus still casts out demons and restores the brokenhearted! He is full of mercy, kindness and patience. He is so very faithful and He wants to be revealed through us! Jesus is still the calmer of storms! I can do nothing apart from Him. John 15:5 But, I can do everything through Him (Jesus) who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13
Maybe you can relate? Maybe you know about Jesus but don’t really KNOW him? Jesus is ALIVE! He is calling us. Will we stop? Will we listen? Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV) ‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’

Thank you for these words today Brother!

We got this note from Rick this morning as we awoke to this day and to bring Reno to Dr. Elizabeth for surgery……

Rick was very clear that I must post this……….Love your passion for our Lord Rick and your love for me and Sharon and Reno and Buffy who have ministered to you, For God’s Glory Alone! ……….

To all my Friends who follow Pastor Dewey at FGGAM…

Few know me so let me introduce myself as briefly as I can… I met Pastor Dewey within the last year and to some extent it was his PURE LOVE for all GOD’s creatures that brought us together… During this time Pastor Dewey took me in and helped me through several catastrophic situations currently disrupting my life… (Sudden unexpected loss of one of my two brothers located in Dallas, TX; loss of my precious little girl (my dog) Suzy-Q who enlightened our lives for over 12 loving years and the loss of my employment all within a few months..) He also assisted us through a tragic situation where one of our other lovely dogs had a rather large litter of puppies (8 in total) and she could not manage to feed that many which resulted in several hospitalizations to the tune of over $2000.00 to save her life and eventually we had to place the puppies in a foster home; (she was such a loving and good mother, despite all our attempts), she could not restrain herself from continuing to try to feed the puppies after she got back home)… Pastor Dewey was there every step of the way and assisted me and my most precious wife through all these tragic situations and brought us both back to the Church and the ways of our glorious Lord…

This is a TRUE ‘Man Of GOD’ who would give his all to anyone in need… If you’re on a wayward path, Pastor Dewey will give you ALL the time required to help you back into a pathway to GOD… If you’re stuck at a gas pump with an empty wallet and an empty gas tank he’ll give what little he may have to put gas in your tank… If you have an empty heart he’ll fill it up for you with the love of our LORD…

Times are tough for us ALL… With the loss of my employment, my limited retirement from the military and a limited income from my wife due to her poor health, are living on a very small 401k we had until I can find employment and sustain our lifestyle again which has been greatly depleted with vet bills and the like…

It’s a hard time of the year and donations to support Pastor Dewey in his work are slim… Despite the constant worry of feeding the family and the possibility of losing our home, my wife and I try to send Pastor Dewey a $10.00 check weekly to help support his work for our LORD… Now he and his lovely wife and family face a bill for THOUSANDS to help save the life of his beloved RENO who actually ministered to me along with his other precious dog Buffy and the Pastor himself…

Upon learning of Reno’s situation my wife suggested that ‘JUST ONE NIGHT’ when we we’re planning a dinner out for a small celebration, which we don’t do very often now, we stay home and eat in and take the difference and send to the Pastor… You will see attached the check we placed in the mail today… No, it is not much; but to us right now, a $5, $10 or $15 check each week is substantial…

Pastor Dewey daily, through FGGAM, the daily CUP, his new radio show and “Dewey & Friends” each Saturday night spends long long long days and hard hard work to help us understand the word of our LORD and our lives are substantially enriched through his arduous work…

PASTOR DEWEY (and RENO) NEED OUR HELP My Friends… I’m asking us all to try to find and extra $1, $5, anything you can do and help the Pastor and his Precious Wife Sharon through this situation where they are facing thousands and thousands in veterinarian bills… If you can’t, it’s understood, but I’m asking you all, anyone who can find anything as small as an extra dollar to send it the Pastor’s way… This past week, with Pastor Dewey’s support and help, I have found new employment in a sales job… Unfortunately it is new to me and it’s commission only and it’s actually costing me more than I’m making, but with the Lord’s help whom Pastor Dewey helped bring back in our lives, will be very fruitful in the future… At that point I fully intend to provide more and more support for him and his hard work… In the mean time, (just once, if not more, please try to find something just a little extra and show the Pastor the support he shows us on a daily basis…

ps……………..

 AS A CHALLENGE... The new sales position I got is with a credit/debit/gift card & check processing company which is designed with free equipment and wholesale processing fees for small and medium size businesses... If you own a small or medium size business, lets set a time to get together (no sales pitch involved, just show you what we can do); I'll show you what we can do to lower your costs or grow your business... If I can save you $'s and we do a deal I WILL donate 1/4 of any commission I make on that sale to Pastor Dewey & FGGAM !!!!!!!!!!!! I will also GLADLY post a copy of my commission statement and my check to the Pastor through the Pastor on the CUP for verification !!! Call me (Rick Stambaugh) at 505 507-6000... If I do not answer, leave a message & I'll get back to you as soon as I can... Mention that you heard of me through "THE CUP" so I know I need to make the donation and I'll put you at the top of my list to contact... That is my direct cell phone number... Get those fingers dialing to help our Pastor out... Rick Stambaugh

Love you and Sandy so much Rick..........I pray your passion for our Lord and sowing seeds for HIM upon all who read this. AMEN!

January 30, 2013. The rich and the poor live side by side. These are good times for the rich. But self-sufficiency will creep in on those who have come to think of themselves as totally secure in their money and wealth. You invested in the things of this world. Without your repentance, what you leave to your heirs will be contested with no peace. Instead, buy gold from me because it has been refined by fire. This type of gold is all blessings. You are slowly losing your sight to see as I see. Buy eye salve from Me and see. In pure love, I am waiting for you. Let us reason together and remember the poor.

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Thank you for stopping by for a CUP! PRAISE GOD!

The Lord has shown me from the intensity of the last 5 days now, and this may seem like a simple thing to some, but this is what drives me, this is what is in me so strong, as strong as the will to live for Christ, IT IS ALL ABOUT GOD! I WAS SHARING YESTERDAY ABOUT FGGAM, AND IT IS NOT ABOUT ONE PERSON, NOT ONE PERSON, IT IS ALL ABOUT GOD! Our lives are to be all about HIM and the Body of Christ. This ministry that the Lord has given me and Sharon is to serve HIM and the Body of Christ. It is not about me. It is For God’s Glory Alone! I had a Christian man tell me that I should “brand” (That was the first red flag! Branding is a secular marketing term) Brand everything Dewey Moede…….ugh! IT IS NOT ABOUT ME! I WANT TO SHOUT TO THIS WORLD EVERYTHING IS ABOUT GOD! NOT ME!

Please pray for our little guy Reno, he undergoes cancer surgery in Wed. morning. We are believing in our Lord that Reno is healed and he will have the growth removed. Let me tell you what happened yesterday, I was distracted by a matter that was going on and did not have a clear head and left the gate open and Reno and Buffy got out! Oh my! They ran…….I went looking for them! I ran! I am now in shape for the start of softball season…….Buffy was walking home and then the Lord turned me around and I headed the other way and the Lord led me right to where Reno was! AMEN! The favor of God! AMEN! You gotta remember that Reno is a beagle and he picks the scent of a rabbit up and he is GONE!

As I shared earlier it has been intense here at FGGAM of late, We announced yesterday that we are going back on radio! The LORD has made that possible with the help of Annette Garcia and Dan N
Birga 730am KDAZ Noon on Mondays, “This is the World we live In”
We are also revamping the FGGAM website to reflect our increased media presence. With Dewey and Friends on KAZQ CH 32 the Lord just keeps opening Doors for our little ministry and we thank Pastor Raymond Franks and Brenton Franks for all they do for us. I stated yesterday….FGGAM IS NOT ABOUT ONE PERSON……….IT IS ONLY ABOUT GOD…….GOD……..IS ALL THAT MATTERS……WHAT HE WANTS US TO DO. IT IS ABOUT THE BODY OF CHRIST!! My calling card for years has been, My life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus. Acts 20:24 And how do you know the work that the Lord has assigned you? By having a close personal relationship with Him, He will tell you! AMEN!

Hey Dewey! Keep those cups comin’ my brother! God Bless and love ya! Alan Autry
Got that short and sweet bit of encouragement from Alan Autry last night. Alan is making Christian movies now, you may remember him as Bubba the Deputy Sheriff in the TV series In The Heat of the Night! I thank the Lord for the Daily CUP that has been reaching out for Jesus now for 15 years! PRAISE GOD! The words by Alan and all of you encourage me and Sharon to go forth for God’s Glory Alone! Kind words are like honey—-sweet to the soul and healthy for the body. Proverbs 16:24 Always will be grateful for friend DrJoe Fawcett for getting Alan and I together! Love you Dr. Joe

Sharon and I are so thankful for what the Lord is doing this day and all days.

Let me share with you more from the mailbag……We love it when you share with us…please drop us a line!!!!

Thank YOU Dewey, for your uplifting ‘Cup’ today, I sure needed to read it.. Dewey, I wasn’t told or just didn’t know it would take so very long to heal from my total Lumbar OverHaul that was done. It’s now been five months of PAIN… And the Dr told me it would be a year!! I want to prove him wrong!!! I’ll be half way thru by next month, but then he also said it might Never go away.. I have something to teach him.. I believe my Saviour when He said I’ll never have more than I can handle. And that wasn’t just a suggestion, it is a Promise!!! He will not Ever let us down..
Bless You my dear friend, and give your precious wife a hug for me. I’m so glad she is giving her talks about having compassion. All caregivers need to hear her!
Gods’ Peace, sam

Thank you for those words Sam! We continue to pray healing over you! Since the Lord put me and Sharon into FGGAM our marriage has even gotten stronger!!! What a blessing!!! We are working together for God’s Glory Alone! AMEN!

Mercy Alarid This is the most fruitful season of your life, so I pray for strength to harvest the fruit and wisdom to generously share it.

Linda Ortmann We will be praying for you both! You have so much to offer! You are so gifted with words and the Holy Spirit! Even though I have never met you two, I love you both! Someday, maybe I’ll get to meet you?! God bless you

Thank you Mercy and Linda for those notes! Linda is from my hometown of Windom, Minnesota!

Let us pray for the family of Bill Pace who has served many radio stations in New Mexico over the years as an engineer. Bill passed away suddenly this weekend.

Please pray for my friend Robb his mother has passed onto heaven

Intense in our faith, in listening to the Holy Spirit, I commented on the Intensity of the last 4 days for Sharon and I…..intense can be a very good thing……doors opening, a new season, knowing the Lord is paving the road for you…….As I prepare the CUP today the Lord gave me these words, 2 Timothy 2:19 says, “Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands having this seal: ‘The Lord knows those who are His,’ and ‘Let everyone who names the Name of Christ depart from iniquity.’ AMEN! We thank you all who commented and stopped by our posting…your love encourages to be BOLD in our FAITH, but not mean, we are to be BOLD but with the love of our Lord. The Holy Spirit guides us through all situations.

For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ. (Colossians 2:5—NKJV)

From a distance, Paul was trying to discern the spiritual state of the Colossian believers. Paul loved the believers dearly, prayed for them intensely, and invested his heart in their eternal welfare. Any little bit of information which came to him concerning them was taken to heart as he pieced together a picture of their spiritual health.
As the picture became clear to him, he put what he saw into the words of our verse. The words he chose have a distinctly martial tone that is easily discernable to the reader. Paul says that he sees them prepared for the battle of life in the “good order” and “steadfastness” of their faith. Good order refers to arrangement of the army, and steadfastness is representative of the preparation of the individual soldiers in their military formation.
It is interesting to me that the translators of the Greek word that means “firm, solid expanse, solid, stiff, and standing firmly” chose the English word “steadfast” to best communicate the idea. Steadfast is of Anglo-Saxon derivation and is incorporated into several words and phrases. “Stead” means a firm place (like a town), or the position of a thing filled by a replacement, a successor which may substitute in the place of another (our phrase “stand in good stead” means to give good advantage and serve well in the place of something). These definitions enhance the meaning of “instead.” They communicate the foundational thought behind the words “homestead” (house, outbuildings and farmland as settled property), bedstead, and “steadfast” (firm, fixed, settled, established, and constant as opposed to fickle).
Paul’s view of the Colossian believers was like a drill master surveying his recruits he has trained, that have now gone off to war, standing on the field of battle in battle array with the steady heart of a soldier beating within. Each soldier knows the enemy is on the march; he knows the business of war; he knows the strength of his training; he knows the great heart of his fellow soldiers; and he stands fixedly in perfect confidence with a sure grip upon his accustomed weapon (“steadfast in your faith”), ready to take on the enemy. “Steady” describes the troops’ firmness, stability, loyalty, constancy, and fixedness.
The same Greek word is found in other places in the Bible. 2 Timothy 2:19 says, “Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands having this seal: ‘The Lord knows those who are His,’ and ‘Let everyone who names the Name of Christ depart from iniquity.’” Hebrews 5:12, 14 reads, “For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.” The word is used by Luke in the book of Acts (3:7, 16, and 16:5) to describe the miraculous strengthening of a man’s legs through healing to leap and walk, and is used to describe the spiritual firming of churches in their faith.
In 1 Peter 5:8–9, Peter says, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.” Peter calls upon believers to be solid—like a foundation, to be stubborn in the faith—immoveable, hard—like good Christian soldiers ought to be in their faith!
How well trained are you in spiritual things? Is your Christianity the kind that is in good order and are you steadfast in your faith? What steps must you take in order to be a faithful soldier of Jesus Christ? Trust and obey.

Here is one of the most common sense write ups I have seen in a long time, it sums up what I have been Preaching for months about the Republican party……….excellent stuff from Cal Thomas……..

GOP: R.I.P.?
By Cal Thomas
Tribune Media Services
Some political commentators are dancing on what they believe to be the grave of the Republican Party, claiming that the only way the GOP can have a viable future is for them to behave like Democrats.
Last weekend, National Review magazine sponsored a “conservative summit” in Washington. They should have held it elsewhere.
Prior to speaking at that event, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal addressed the Republican National Committee’s annual winter meeting in Charlotte, N.C., where he proposed a new strategy for Republicans and conservatives that begins, not in Washington, but at the state level.
Jindal said the Republican Party loses when it plays on the liberal Democrats’ turf, allowing them to set the agenda.
“America is not the federal government,” he said. He maintained Republicans have wasted too much time trying to manage bloated government and too little time growing the private sector. The media and Democrats, he added, treat any serious proposal to restrain government growth as “not serious” when the truth is, “…nothing serious is deemed serious in Washington.”
Then in a face-slapping moment, Jindal added, “If this election taught us anything — it is that we will not win elections by simply pointing out the failures of the other side. We must boldly paint the picture of what America can be, of just how incredibly bright America’s future can be.”
The real action is occurring away from Washington. Republican governors, a majority of state chief executives, are lowering or eliminating state incomes taxes, cutting wasteful spending, balancing budgets, or creating surpluses, and in the case of Indiana, sending rebate checks to taxpayers.
Here are three Jindalisms the public can understand: “Government spending still does not grow our economy. … American weakness on the world stage still does not lead to peace. … Higher taxes still do not create prosperity for all.”
Poverty should not be the final verdict on any life. Republicans need to have “testimony time” during which people once addicted to government tell how they broke free and are now earning a paycheck because they embraced conservative principles. Republicans should be seen as friends of the poor instead of friends of the wealthy, who President Obama has said, are doing fine.
Republicans should also partner with churches. Stop arguing about the evils of welfare dependency and start helping people live a life of self-sufficiency. That begins with a change in attitude and a transformation of outlook. What better institution to address these internal qualities than the church?
If Republicans want to do something about the future, they should back a growing movement to pull children out of underperforming public schools where often their views, values, understanding of history and even faith are undermined. Home-schooling is an option. The public school system, seemingly a “hot house” for growing new generations of secular liberals, is a failure on many levels. It makes no sense to me to put one’s children in a school system that will likely transform their minds and souls into something quite different from those of their parents. Private school is also an option. Many of them offer scholarships to children whose parents can’t afford tuition. A solid education is the first step out of poverty.
Negativity doesn’t inspire. Criticizing Democrats might make the base feel good, but it solves nothing. Republicans should adopt the optimism and vision of Ronald Reagan, whose main gift to this country was to persuade Americans to believe in themselves. His optimism became our optimism. In the end, “we, the people” must realize they have the power, not Washington.
Governor Jindal stated his vision in Charlotte: “…free individuals, taking risks, building businesses, inventing things from thin air, and passing immutable values from one generation to the next … that is the root of America’s greatness.”
Are party members listening and willing to change, not their principles, but their approach to promoting those principles? We will know soon enough, but predictions of the party’s demise are as premature as they were for Democrats during the Reagan-Bush electoral successes of 1980, ’84 and ’88.
Republicans aren’t dead yet, but changes are essential for the GOP to get off life support. They can start by reading Governor Jindal’s speech.
(Readers may e-mail Cal Thomas at tmseditors.)

Great words here by Bev Robinson………

January 29, 2013. I know burdens sometimes get heavy. I love you for bearing the burdens of others. But it is not good for you to keep them on your shoulders for long. I know you pray and this is the exact right thing. After you pray, get the burdens over on Me as quickly as you can. There are other burdens to come and you don’t want them on top of the ones you already have or you will break under the load. Precious one, the burdens you are to bear for others is the fruit of My Spirit. Bear and exhibit them so that others can see, hear, taste, smell and touch Me.

Galatians 5:22 (MSG) “But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard-things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments,” Bev Robinson

Oh let us pray over this scripture everyday………

O Lord, whenever I think anything contrary to your word, reveal that to me. Philippians 3:15

Fellowship with Christ is the secret of happiness now and forever.

“Frustration exists to highlight where and how the Lord wants to change you. It can either be the spark of life that creates a new dimension or the detonation of all that we hold dear. Be careful not to snuff out that spark, but nurture it properly.” Graham Cooke

“One of our biggest problems is that most of us don’t really understand the fullness of who we are in Jesus. That’s our journey. That’s our passion. That’s our joy. That’s going to be an endless source of enjoyment for us!” AMEN!

Yesterday was a HUGE day in our LORD at the First Baptist Church in Magdalena, NM! What a wonderful time in our Lord Sharon and I had with Pastor Paul Holt and his lovely wife Jo and the entire congregation.

We are so grateful to Pastor Paul and Jo for having us. We Preached on the Sermon on the Mount and being salt and Light. No portion of scripture was more quoted and referred to in the first 400 years of the Church 

than the sermon on the mount. There is no room in any one book to detail the impact of "these words" on all cultures over the last 2,000 years. The Golden rule, The Lords prayer, love your enemies, go the second mile, blessed are the meek, salt and light. 

President Harry Truman said, "I don't believe there is a problem in this country or world today which could not be settled on the teachings of the Sermon on the Mount.

President Ronald Reagan used the Sermon on the Mounts "City on a hill" as a guiding light for his years 

in office. Both President Bush 1 and 2 used the Sermon on the Mount in their years in the White House.

Remember last week when we shared with you that Albuquerque Journal writer Leslie Linthicum wrote

that Jesus did not protect the Griego family? I addressed this statement as dangerous territory.......and

I asked Pastor Paul Holt to be Salt and Light and comment..........

 In an op-ed piece written by Leslie Linthicum that appeared in the Albuquerque Journal on 01/24/13. Ms. Linthicum stated regarding the tragic deaths of the Greg Griego family, "We can spend a lot of time speculating on what was going on in Nehemiah's heart last weekend. But we know that Jesus did not protect the Griego family, Nehemiah included, from evil."
 

 Yet, earlier in the article she stated, "Nehemiah reloaded the weapons, put them in the back of the family van and thought about going to Walmart, where he intended tokill a lot more people and go out with guns ablaze in a shootout with the cops. Instead, he ended up at his church and, thankfully, the death toll stopped at five."

The twisted logic of those who oppose Jesus is that they fail to take into account free will. The Lord allows us to choose this day either life or death. On the surface, it appears that Jesus is impotent to protect a family that choose Him. The Lord chooses to limit His sovereignty to allow free will, as we saw on 9/11. But we should also understand that Jesus directed Nehemiah to leave his guns in the family mini van instead of him shooting up the local Walmart or Calvary Chapel.

What can we learn from this and other tragedies? That safety and preservation of life is bought with the loss of freedom? That Jesus is without power in our world? No. We learn that everyone has a choice. Even those who have trusted the Lord. Death is an unnatural part of this fallen world and is always tragic. Jesus allows death to continue until this age is finished. Christians must understand that we must continue to choose the Lord and His ways each and every day. Evil can still be invited into the most Christian of homes and we are each allowed this choice. Jesus did protect the Griego family. According to the testimony of those who knew them, they trusted in the Lord and they are with Him even now. We are not to fear the one who can take our lives, but the one who can take our life and our soul.  

Well today in the front page of the Albuquerque Journal my discernment was so sadden in the front 

page write up by Joline Gutierrez endorsing abortion.

You see, this is why we have to be salt and light and carry out the Great Commission. Many that

read this write up will agree that abortion is okay, because they do not have a Biblical view of life.

They have not met our Lord Jesus Christ. They are not familiar with or do not believe the Sermon

on the Mount. They believe the "NOTHING NOISE" of the world. Just like on CNN with the

talk show host saying the Bible needs to be amended! Very dangerous territory. But again, thousands

 and thousands watching that program will be in agreement with talk show host Morgan because

they don't know any better. We are to love on people and show them the ways of our Lord Jesus Christ.

David Wells says this:

Our world, our resplendent culture, has been turned into a substitute for God. However, this substitute , we quickly discover, offers no principles by which to live. Furthermore, we also find that the self that

has to fill the void at the center of our lives is incapable of fulfilling this function....if we could see more

clearly God in the full blaze of His burning purity, we would not be on easy terms with all sins that now

infect our souls and breed easy compromise with the spirit of the postmodern age.

Chuck Swindoll says this:

It is precisely this kind of tolerance for sin that threatens to undo the Church of Jesus Christ. If the 

Church does not realize this danger and take a stand against it
