That liveth again
To intercede for me.
My Soul followeth hard after Thee. Psalm 63:8 Is the intense expression of a Man after God’s own heart.

From Celina Lucero……..
“The prayer of faith”
Mark 11:22 – 23, 24
“Have faith in God,” Jesus answered “I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go throw yourself into the sea, and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, what ever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
People we serve an AWESOME God!! His word is real and alive. All we need to do is keep our eyes focused on Jesus. Trust His WORD.
I love you with the love of Our King Jesus the great I AM!
Thank you Celina!
Let us follow up that POWERFUL message with another one! This is from Kathy!!! WOW WEE What a start to the Day! PRAISE GOD……
Pastor Dewey, I read this and felt to share it with you. This is a major word for us today of grasping how repentance works.It is not just words coming out of our mouth. It is a shift of our entire being.

Day 43 of 100 Days: “Repentance Has Three Dimensions” Read: Rom. 8
by Chuck Pierce on Tuesday, November 8, 2011 at 11:06am
We are still focusing on the wilderness. Repentance is an important part of your wilderness experience. Let us get a new understanding of this today.
Chuck D. Pierce
Look for those who are going before you with a message of change. Don’t keep advancing through the wilderness without knowing why you’re in that wilderness and what is being tested. John was preaching a certain message. That’s why he’s called the Baptist. He was preaching repentance. To repent means “to change your mind.” If we change our mind, we can take new land.
Repentance has three dimensions. First, repentance takes an intellectual shift. Your brain has to shift. You have to say, “I believe this, but here is another paradigm that I’m having to choose.” You see the theory presented, and you have to make the choice that this is right. You understand in your intellect that what you have heard is a correct direction for your life. We must remember “the carnal mind is enmity against God” (Rom. 8:7).
The next level of repentance comes when all of a sudden your emotions have to let go of some old issues that would keep you from really grabbing hold of this new paradigm. This is usually where a lot of people never repent. Our emotions stay tied to the past, tied to the way we operate, whom we operate with, and why we had problems in a previous situation. Without allowing the Lord to touch and change our emotions, we really do not fully repent. Our spirit will remain in angst and annoyed. We always live with a measure of emotion that prevents us from seeing our future clearly. You have to be healed in your emotions of the past to shift into your future.
The third component of repentance is that there has to be a will action. The will action produces the reality of your repentance. John the Baptist was drawing people to the wilderness. Their status and upbringing didn’t matter. Their wealth or poverty was not an issue. We find that publicans came out. Soldiers came out. The people had not forgotten that there was a Torah. Rather, they did not see a reality in the Torah; there was no reality in the operation of the Word. Most revivals take on this character of a wilderness-season repentance because we have gotten so far from the reality of the Word. We’re acknowledging the Word in a new way by saying, “O my God, how did we drift so far from it?”
Thank you for sharing Kathy, so POWERFUL….
This is a great message from a new friend here at the CUP, Susan……..
Get Rid Of It – For Real
I’ve been digging, sorting, and clearing out stuff.
I bagged it, washed it, and carted it to the car to be donated to Ditto, the “upscale resale thrift shop” that raises funds for my kids’ alma mater.
Felt like a real accomplishment.
The problem is Ditto’s hours of operation aren’t in sync with my hours of operation ;D I can’t seem to get there before closing time.
And so I have been driving around with my discarded stuff for a week. I went through it – did the inventory. I identified and separated it. I even moved it. But I haven’t really gotten rid of it. I plan to, but it’s still there hanging around. Moving around. I stopped short yesterday to avoid a car that ran a stop sign, and heard a symphony of shuffles as the stuff in back slid toward the front.
In order for me to actually get rid of this stuff, I have to make a change. I need to change my habits and rearrange my schedule. I have to move out of my comfort zone.
I have some other stuff I’d like to get rid of. Fear, anger, resentment, jealousy. I have done some soul-searching. Taken inventory. Identified what needs to be addressed. Felt some pride and a sense of accomplishment in that.
But that stuff is still hanging around. An unwelcome remark or a difficult situation becomes like that car running a stop sign bringing all that stuff toward the front, a symphony of emotions sliding around my interior. So how do I actually get rid of it – for real?
Paul says, “Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.” But he doesn’t leave it at that.
He continues with, “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.” (Eph. 4:31-32)
James instructs us, “Get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent”
And like Paul he goes on, “and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. Do not merely listen to the word, .. Do what it says.” (James 1:21-22)
To get rid of these unwanted emotions and behaviors, I need to move beyond identifying them. I need to replace them with desired behaviors. Clearing out the old creates a void and the old will slide right back in if there isn’t something already in its place.
Replace resentment and anger with forgiveness.
Replace doing evil with doing what the Word says.
Then I’ll be getting rid of it – for real!
How about you? Do you have unwanted stuff hanging around? How can you clear it out? For real? Let’s talk about it.

AWESOME Susan, thank you!!! God Bless!
Here is an AWESO)ME write up from pastor Don Kimbro…..it is very encouraging, especially for small Church’s and Pastor’s, and those of us that attend smaller Church’s.
Hello my brothers,
I wrote this piece to a church that I am personally acquainted with that is struggling and has perhaps lost its momentum and focus for a season. I have experienced over the years what this church is going through and I also know it can and probably will happen to any church of any size, anywhere and at any time. Most of our churches are small and struggle. Sometimes the pastors with the smiley buttons on their chests are on the inside very discouraged. Perhaps this reminder will be an encouragement for those in the “ministry of reconciliation” to never give up and always remember Who it is that they serve, no matter what the numbers are. God bless.

A HUNDRED AND TWENTY
For Such A Time As This
In the November 2011 issue of Heights Happenings, our Youth Pastor Jeremy Bannister wrote with some passion about the possibilities and opportunity that our small church now has to grow, provided that the mindset of the congregation changes from, “I love our little church .” and “I hope we never become as large as . . . ” to “Let’s all begin to tell others about Christ and invite them to our church.” The article was a good admonition for us to get out of our comfort zones and dream of how it could be again at Heights Christian Church, which by the way, has been winning souls in our city for 50 years.
But what intrigued me about Jeremy’s article the most—rather than to be discouraged over our current smallness—was the number of the actual average Sunday morning attendance figure he quoted. It was 120. A hundred and twenty.
Now I must admit to you, in my time with our church, which goes back to the early seventies, I have seldom seen so few filling the seats on Sunday mornings. I have several reasons why I believe this is so and I have shared them all with our pastors on different occasions but that is not the purpose of this article. My intent is to show what God can do with just a hundred and twenty of anything. There is scriptural precedent. So here we go.
The phrase a hundred and twenty is mentioned 13 times in the Bible. God used it to express chronological age (Gen. 6:3; Dt. 31:2, 34:7); the number in thousands of military men in various battles (Jud. 8:10; 2 Chron. 28:6); the weight of the offerings of gold measured in thousands of shekels, given by the people for the building of the tabernacle in the wilderness (Num. 7:86); Solomon’s offering to the LORD in thousands of sheep and goats for the Temple sacrifices (1 Kgs. 8:63; 2 Chron. 7:5); and God’s concern for the total number of lost people in thousands in Nineveh (Jon. 4:11). He still has that concern for the lost in our world.
However, the phrase a hundred and twenty that makes the most impact on my spirit, is the description of the early church after the ascension of Jesus that is found in Acts 1:14-15, “These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren. And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about a hundred and twenty . . . ”).
Let’s take a look at what God did with that little group of initial believers in the early church and point out to you scripturally, how He did it. Why were they praying? Because Jesus had told them “I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high” (Lk. 24:49). And then he said, “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard Me speak about” (Acts 1:4). So they waited—and prayed.
What was that gift of promise? Jesus continued, “For John baptized with water but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit “(Acts 1:5). And what would be the result of their receiving that promise? “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8).
Then the Day of Pentecost came and that same a hundred and twenty again, “were all together in one place” (praying). “Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them” (Acts 2:1-4).
The apostle Peter, addressing the crowd of startled onlookers explained, “this is what was spoken of by the prophet Joel” (Acts 2:15). Prophecy was being fulfilled right before their eyes. It was the promise of power that the early church would receive to win souls to Christ—a promise that was extended “for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call” (Acts 2:39). I believe that includes us!
After this event, we never see the term a hundred and twenty used again in Scripture in regard to people, but we do see terms like “three thousand were added to their number that day” (Acts 2:41); and “then the number of men grew to five thousand” (Acts 4:4). How many thousands were won to Christ through the ministry of Peter, Paul and the other spirit-filled apostles and disciples, beginning with that day? How many thousands have been won down through every century for Jesus Christ because Holy Spirit baptized Christians have gone out into every nook and cranny in our world to share and demonstrate the power of the Gospel (Mk. 16:15-18; Rom. 15:17-19; 1 Cor. 2:4-5; Gal. 3:5; 1 Thessa. 1:5; Heb. 2:4)?
I suppose the final conclusion of that modest beginning is seen in the last book in the Bible, in the heavenly scene of those surrounding the throne of the Lamb, “And they sang a new song: ‘You are worthy to take the scroll and to open the seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God and they will reign on the earth’” (Rev. 5:9-10).
So I remind you dear little church, that this magnificent journey of the Good News that brought each one of you here, started with a hundred and twenty—the first church. That’s why I am encouraged with the possibility of something great like that happening once again—right where we are. We have just the right numbers don’t we?
But let me also remind you, that it all started with a group of people just like us who came together in fervent prayer and who were willing and ready to receive the power of the Holy Spirit. It cannot be done in any other way.

God Bless you Robbin, it was a great program yesterday!
Let’s check the Medical bag with Dr. Joe!
<!–[if !supportLists]–>1. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to keep your toothbrush — the bathroom sink
There are 3.2 million microbes per square inch in the average toilet bowl, and all of those germs are propelled out every time you flush, settling on the floor and the sink. Keep your toothbrush behind closed doors in the medicine cabinet or a nearby cupboard.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>2. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to stash sneakers and flip-flops — the bedroom closet
Shoes track in allergens and contaminants. Leave your shoes by the front door.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>3. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to fall asleep — under piles of blankets
Being overheated can keep you from sleeping. Let your feet stick out from under your blankets.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>4. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to cool leftovers — in the refrigerator
Placing hot leftovers directly in the fridge can cause uneven cooling and possibly food poisoning. Leave food to cool on the counter for up to an hour after cooking, or divide it into smaller containers that can cool faster before refrigerating.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>5. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to sit on an airplane — the rear
The tail of the plane is where you’ll get the bumpiest ride. Sit as close to the wing as you can.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>6. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to set your handbag — the kitchen counter
Tests have showed up to 10,000 bacteria per square inch on purse bottoms. Put your bag anywhere except where food is prepared or eaten.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>7. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to use a public bathroom — the stall in the middle
The center stall has more bacteria. Pick a stall all the way left or right.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>8. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to keep medicine — the medicine cabinet
The temperature in a bathroom can get well above the recommended storage temperatures for many common drugs. Keep medicine somewhere cool and dry, such as the pantry.
<!–[if !supportLists]–>9. <!–[endif]–>Worst place to use headphones — on an airplane, train, or subway
You’re probably turning the volume up too high if you’re listening to headphones in a noisy environment. Listen wherever you don’t have to blast your music to enjoy it, or consider using noise-canceling headphones.
10. The worst place to pick up a prescription: the pharmacy drive-thru In a survey of 429 pharmacists, respondents ranked drive-thru windows high among distracting factors that can lead to prescription processing delays and errors, says survey author Sheryl Szeinbach, PhD, professor of pharmacy practice and administration at Ohio State University. If you don’t want to give up the convenience of a rolling pickup, be sure to check that both drug and dose are what the doctor ordered.

Thanks Dr. Joe! Now to our Financial News with Pastor Bill Ruhl
Financial News You Need To Know #3
The Lord declares in His Word that the gold and silver are His. Now that’s certainly a financial inheritance we need to tap into. Gold has always been the standard for currencies to be based on, as far as value is concerned. Silver is a bit more volatile in its moves, as it is more of an industrial metal that can be easily fluctuated, but both gold and silver are the hard asset metals to have as strong long term “value” investment purchases. A financial student once asked me, “Should I be buying gold?” My response was, “No, only when you have stewarded your finances to where you have resources available to invest.” That may sound flippant, but the truth is, until you have your financial house in order, a balanced budget, and are debt free you need not be playing with investments. Why? Because precious metals are hard assets. That is: places to secure your monetary resources for the long haul. Gold and silver are more liquid than real estate, but not something you purchase if you need to access your money on a constant basis for current necessities. You must know your financial position, have a plus margin budget in place, an emergency fund established, and a readily available savings program before you look for places for long term investments. Once you’re there though, gold and silver are a must to protect the value of your financial portfolio.
That’s the Financial News You Need To Know. I’m Bill Ruhl with Global Destiny Ministry. Be Blessed By Being A Blessing!Thank you so much pastor Bill!
