NEW CUP WHO SHOULD WE VOTE FOR???? KKIM/DDC/Monday, July 28, 2008
Good Morning KKIM Family! May the Peace of the Lord be with You and Yours!!!
"For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." Mark 10:45
How are you going to serve the Lord today?
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." Eleanor Roosevelt
Many have asked me who to vote for when it comes to electing our next President and other leaders that are up for election............
We can turn to our Lord and the Bible............Paul sets forth a good model...........
Titus 1: 7-8
"Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work, he must be blameless-------not overbearing, not quick tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. Rather he must be hospitable, one who loves what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplines"
This is all about Character.........This is not just for leaders for our Country....for our families, Church, Schools, businesses.
When we read GOD'S word.......and pray to HIM..........then we will know who to vote for.
Gilbert Larson reminds me that the Bible is our book of instruction..........our milk.
John 15:5 says...........Without ME you can do nothing. Is GOD with you?
Daniel........knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God. Daniel 6:10
Your Word is very pure, therefore Your servant loves it. Psalm 119:140
I want to encourage all of us to read our Bibles prayerfully...........and let the word of God absorb us.........
As Eugene H. Peterson said, "Showing up at Church once a week and saying a hearty AMEN is a lot easier than engaging in a life of daily prayer (and reading of God's word)
They cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and HE saved them out of their distress. Psalm 107:19
My Mother loved the Psalms..........
Blessed are those who..............seek HIM with the whole heart! Psalm 119:2
Let us SEEK the LORD together each day ...........Let us commit to reading HIS WORD everyday.........Let us commit to PRAY to HIM many times a day.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Hebrews 13:8
Rick sent this in.....................Thanks Rick!!!
WHEN I SAY I AM A CHRISTIAN
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I am saved"
I'm whispering "I was lost"
That's why I chose this way.
When I say ..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need someone to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
and pray for strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
and cannot ever pay the debt.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are too visible but,
God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain,
I have my share of heartaches
which is why I speak His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority.
I only know I'm loved.

Prayer needs...............
We need to pray for the people in Ruidoso New Mexico area. As floods waters have done so much damage.........over 700 Evacuated now..........An Adult and a Child are missing. Over 200 homes have been damaged. Gateway Church of Christ has been the biggest shelter for folks.
The Hatch, New Mexico area (Chili Capital) has had a lot of rain and the rain has severely damaged this years chili crop.
Please for the folks at the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church as a gunman killed two people in the Church yesterday. The Church is located in Knoxville. Seven others were injured.
Please pray for Pastor Jesse Dompreh as he is headed to Africa.
Here is an update from John Robb..............
Dear Friends,
Hundreds of Christ’s people are meeting in Hilo, Hawaii for the All Pacific
Prayer Assembly. They come from 14 Pacific island nations and are here to
seek the Lord for His transformation of their region. Today is the last day
of our time together. It has been a time of great joy with colorful,
vibrant dancing, singing and times of prayer together for this region and
the rest of the world. The leaders ask that we pray the following for their
region:
1. That the churches of the Pacific islands and beyond will understand
and practice the message of God’s glory so that “the earth will be
full of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover
the sea” (Habakkuk 2:14).
2. That the Gospel of the Kingdom will bring transformation to the
nations of this region and their institutions, so there will be an
awareness of God’s judgement and the need for public righteousness,
and that the right people will be elected to serve in government.
3. There is so much Christian nominalism in the region and so there is a
great need for the 4 R’s of repentance, reconciliation, revival and
restoration.
4. That a mighty children and youth in prayer movement will arise in
these nations. This has been a special focus of our time here. The
children are “God’s secret weapon” like the small sticks of kindling
wood that get the bigger logs burning. May the Lord use them to
restore the fire of revival to the islands that once experienced it!
Another prayer concern comes from the state of New Mexico in the USA where
the New Mexico Prayer Transformation Council is hoping to bring a team of
Mexican and Spanish church leaders to repent and ask forgiveness of the
Indian tribal leaders (19 Pueblos) that still feel the woundedness of what
happened centuries ago at the hands of the Spanish conquerors who carried
out acts of atrocity, subjugated, and enslaved the native peoples in the
takeover of their land. Please pray for special favor with the Indian
tribal leadership as this approach is made to them by one of our native
colleagues. We hope that this time of reconciliation can occur at the end
of next month, but there are obstacles that have arisen that need to be
overcome.
Please pray for the U.S. presidential campaign which is in full swing that
the Lord will raise up the person of His choice to be our next President.
We cannot afford to get the wrong leader at such a crossroads in our
history. This is a crucial time for the USA and many feel that our nation
has entered a time of God’s judgement and purification. May we listen to
Him and allow Him to correct us, giving us a new vision as a people!
Thanks so much for your prayers.
A warm “aloha” from Hawaii,
John Robb
Thanks John.........Wish we were in Hawaii with you!
Yesterday in Albuquerque the State of New Mexico unveiled a 6 foot tall granite monument at the New Mexico's Veterans Memorial in Albuquerque. The event marked the 55th anniversary of a cease-fire that ended hostilities in the Korean War July 27, 1953. How many of us knew that?
Here is Karen Rowe.................Thanks Karen!!!
Good Morning. I wrote this a while back in "Train Whistle." To me, it is a gift from God and I have wanted to share it ever since. It has been on my mind lately and I feel like today is the day that God helped me share this. God is good!!! It was written in personal form for each person to receive.
PS...every time that I write, and you notice ... I am thanking the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in my heart; a way of honoring them in the writting. I share this with you so that those (...) 3 little dots can be a humble reminder to all of us to remember to thank Him, each as One, but individually.
I hope that you are blessed!
Love and Prayers, Karen Rowe
Serving By His Amazing Grace! By Karen Rowe
I made a choice to be nice today…
I served God in a humble way
I made a choice to smile today…
I served God in a humble way
I made a choice to turn from gossip
Instead I chose to do a good deed …
I served God in a humble way.
I made a choice to love
I made a choice to forgive and forget…
I served God in a humble way.
I made a choice to yield to an insult
I made a choice to walk away
I made a choice to choose God’s words …
I chose to serve God humbly today
I made a choice to let them go
And now I choose to just ‘let it go’…
To rise above …by the hand of God
To forgive and forget releases me so…
I served God in a humble way,
So why does it feel that He served me today?
I feel so free the burden is gone…
…The one that weighed me down for so long.
My reward is great because I listened to God
I turned from the fight and walked in His light.
God led me, not as a coward, far above that…
Humbly I received His grace and His righteousness filled my heart!
I made a choice to be honest and pay…
I made a choice to tell the truth …
I serve God by my choice…
I need His love to grasp His Grace…
I honor God when I choose to obey.
I just want to serve Him every day!
I made a choice to follow Jesus
I made a choice to take the time…
I heard my heart and stopped this time…
I made a choice to tell another about God’s love;
They gained the knowledge of Jesus and were saved today…
I served God in a humble way!
I hope to be humble in all that I do…
I hope to do what Jesus would do…
To serve our Father with the love for another…
It is an honor and a pleasure to learn from our Savior
How sweet the joy…
How beautiful the blessing …
With a humble heart, I thank God that I can serve God today.
God and Me
May Christ be with You and Yours, Today and Always, Dewey Sharon and family
