Thank you for your patience.

PS some of you have more than one email with Dewey- if so.. please send the email with both email addresses indicated so I can have them all out at once. Thank you! **

Dear KKIM/KARS/SHINE Family,

May the Peace and Strength of our Lord be with you and yours!

We are cleaning out the mail box and we are now able to add more people……..This email was like honey to the soul! Kind words are like honey—sweet to the soul and healthy for the body. Proverbs 16:24

I don’t know how you got my email address but I thank God you did! I have been blessed the last couple of days with your message. Please keep them coming as I am in need of all the inspiration and fellowship with my Lord Jesus that I can get!! Again, thank you……………………………….Kathy

Thank you Kathy!! What an encouragement your email is!!! The Lord has shook up our mailing list and HE found you! PRAISE GOD!!!! So glad to have you here at the CUP! We love you so!

I thank Jannetta LaMort for all she does, she is an Angel of God here on earth, she has spent much time on our mail box issues! Thank you so much Jannetta! We love you so! What a Women of God she is!

It’s great to hear from new folks and also folks we have not heard from in a long time, like Robb!

Hi Dewey, This is Rob McNutt. Hope all is well. I can see the very

moral fiber of our country and world disintegrating right before us.

Come Lord Jesus come. We are in the times where they are calling what

is good evil and what is evil good. Come Lord Jesus come. Keep

watching and praying and keep reading His Word and endeavor to keep

God’s logo. Love ya, Rob

Right on Robb! Love ya man! Taking more heat here at the CUP and Radio Ranch in our stand for Jesus! Attacks more than ever standing for Jesus! The Lord has shown me first hand why many Pastor’s and others retreat, they can’t stand the heat in the kitchen! It can really wear you down and hurt at times! It takes a firm foundation in our LORD! That is why we are here everyday to offer up encouragement in our LORD, so that we all remain strong and pray for each other. Spiritual warfare is going strong!

Last night we had a wonderful conversation with Pastor Steve Smothermon, who is with us each Wednesday on NM news and Views…..Steve was saying how the Word of God becomes part of you by reading the Word daily……Like Robb said in his email read God’s Word it is the bread of life.

Jesus stopped and said,”Call him.”

So they called the blind man and said to him, “Have courage! get up; He’s calling you.” he threw off his coat, jumped up, and came to Jesus.

Then Jesus answered him, “What do you want Me to do for you?”

“Rabbouni,” the blind man told Him, “I want to see!”

“Go your way,” Jesus told him. “Your faith has healed you.” Immediately he could see and began to follow Him on the road.

AMEN! Those same miracles are available to us this day! Jesus still heals! Jesus is still in the miracle making business, have faith my friends!

Get yourself a Bible where the Words of Jesus are in red and just pick it up and start reading..I love it……I have so many Bibles….and I read in them all….but the ones that put the words of Jesus in red, I love so much!

We are living in a time where 36% of Christians do not believe in the whole Bible and 46% of Born again Christians do not believe that Satan is true! Pastor Steve Smothermon said, he would question then whether or not these people are born again. God’s Word is God’s Word and that is it! If you do not believe in the Bible you are not a Christian, plain an simple. My goodness sakes, it is God’s Word! The Church is in much trouble. Many who call themselves Christians are not. We are living in a time of the “water downed” Church. Many have “watered down” His Word. I do not want to face my Lord and say that I watered down His Word!

I am lying if I do not tell the truth, and the truth is God’s Word. The Whole truth and nothing but the truth!

For us here at the CUP, God’s Word is ALIVE IN US! AMEN! IT drives us each day!

Here is a great devotional by Charles Stanley 8:05am weekdays on KKIM about having God in our lives constantly.AMEN!

Read | 1 Timothy 1:5-7
Let your conscience be your guide. This bit of folk wisdom seems to make sense since our conscience is designed to help us discern right from wrong. However, people cannot always trust their internal radar to steer them correctly; this is the case particularly with unbelievers, who don’t have the Holy Spirit to reveal truth and offer guidance for wise decisions. And while Christians do have God’s indwelling Spirit, they should be careful not to harbor sin in their lives, as that can interfere with the way their morality sensor functions.
A trustworthy conscience is programmed with scriptural teaching. Believers build a stable and sensitive spiritual radar system by applying God’s truth to their lives. They are committed to thinking and acting in ways that honor and please the Lord. Then, when sinful thoughts or choices come across that radar, it will deliver a sharp warning.
A person with a reliable conscience will have a strong desire to obey God. He won’t settle for what feels right or looks good, but instead prayerfully seeks the Lord’s will. In other words, he does not rely solely on his conscience but incorporates all of the Holy Spirit’s tools into his daily life: Scripture, prayer, etc. Moreover, when his spiritual radar sounds the alarm, he is quick to draw back and reject unwise choices.
A conscience isn’t designed to be our guide; it is a tool of the Guide. The Holy Spirit not only convicts us of sin, but He also brings to mind godly principles and leads us on a righteous path. He uses a variety of tools to conform us to the likeness of Christ (Rom. 8:29).
AMEN! Praise God!

Yesterday I had Judith Nowen of Joyful Ministries in Santa Fe on Dewey’s daily Cup on the radio at 3:30.Oh, My friends she is a prayer warrior! Yes she is! here is a note from Judith…….

Dewey, I got your email. I will be hosting George Otis Journey to Transformation Course on November 3,4,& 5. George Otis was here in SF and Alb in Feb. showed a DVD on the only place in the US that has been Transformed by Jesus. There have been 800 other places, but they are in other countries. The DVD he did on Manchester, KY is called An Appalachian Dawn. I believe we are ready for transformation of NM. I am holding Transformation Prayer every Sunday evening at 6:00 pm at Joyful Ministries. Prayer is how we are moving in transformation and I think the Course in November will give us more tools to help us. George did a tour of the US and so I know many are wanting Transformation to happen. . We are also putting up Prayer Tents on August 13th 11-3 around SF for people to get prayer. We will have 2-4 people in each tent to pray for any one that wants prayer. They can also make written requests. We are praying in Santa Fe……….

Won’t it be wonderful to see Santa Fe transformed for Jesus and NM transformed for Jesus. Jesus loves his people! That is what I am up to. You can contact me @ 505-690-1495 if needed. Thank you for all you do for Jesus!

Thank you for the simple test. Blessings, In Him, Judith

WOW! We loved that movie that Larry Moss showed here in Albuquerque on Appalachian Dawn! What a story! Thanks for the heads up Judith!
The Passing of a Great Godly man…….

Renowned Christian leader Rev. John Stott passed away in his sleep, Wednesday, at his home in London.
Stott, considered one of the greatest evangelical thinkers of the 20th century, led an evangelical resurgence in England in the 1960s and 1970s.
He influenced Christians worldwide through his preaching and writings. He authored 50 books during his lifetime.
Stott was ordained by the Church of England in 1945 and served at All Souls Church in London for more than 60 years.
His ministry spanned the globe with a variety of outreach programs. His ministry also has offices in the United States.
Stott believed God wanted to see the church grow in maturity and not just numbers. This was a major emphasis of his work.
Along with the Rev. Billy Graham, he helped craft the 1974 Lausanne Covenant, helping define the evangelical movement.
“The evangelical world has lost one of its greatest spokesmen,” Graham said of Stott’s passing. “And I have lost one of my close personal friends and advisors.”
In 2005, Time magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Stott was 90 years old.
I would encourage you to read his books!
Sam wrote to us about yesterday Funny Bone from Wanell on GREEN!

LOL Dewey, I did get a laugh out of that. As it brought back all my nicest memories. Ones of washing on a Rub Board. And then putting them thru the Wringer to get all the water out so to dry faster on the line! …. I couldn’t run to the market every time I needed milk so I just walked to my neighbor to get my two gallons of Fresh Milk so I could make my butter, cheese, and cottage cheese, yogurt and Cream. I remember sitting there with a gallon of milk in a jug rolling it on my knee to make the butter. And after drinking that Wonderful Buttermilk that the Butter came out of..It didn’t even matter it was still warm. So Good..Instead of getting my olives at the store I would spend weeks picking them and then curing them in very large igloo’s with Lye.. Those were the best olives I’ve ever eaten. And Everyone I knew couldn’t wait for Christmas for they knew that was their Present from me a gallon of Home Made Olives……And back further in my memories when my first Schwin bicycle my dad bought me so I didn’t have to walk half a mile every day each way to school. Boy did I feel blessed! NO we didn’t have the ‘Green’ in my day, but we did have Comfort in knowing we could survive. Now a days I can understand how people are so undone while they live in apartments and don’t even have a garden. Their total dependence on the government has brought them nothing but Fear. IF only they Knew in their heart God will Provide. That is ALL that is needed these days. The Knowledge that God WILL provide no matter what. TY for posting that wonderful letter of the green ways of days past. God’s Peace, sam

‘just me’ :0)

Please also pray for Sam, as she has had a rough summer, in much pain…Summer is usually her good months….please pray for Sam! We Love you Sam!

My friends, we live in a time where we must take risks for the Lord like never before.the Lord is with us!!! AMEN…..here is an excellent devotional on risk…..

Faith Means Taking Risks
by Jon Walker

“You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.” (NLT)

Faith always means risk. Everything in life is a risk. Ecclesiastes 10:8 says, “When you work in a quarry, stones might fall and crush you! When you chop wood, there is danger with each stroke of your ax! Such are the risks of life” (NLT). There’s nothing we can do that doesn’t have some element of risk in it.
But the greatest risk of all is how we relate to other people and how we relate to God – the risk to do something about those relationships. Mark 12:30 says, “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength” (NLT). You take a risk when you love with all your heart. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Jesus reminded us that one of the greatest mistakes we can make is to play it safe with our lives. He said, “If you try to keep your life for yourself, you’ll lose it.”
You probably remember the part in the third Indiana Jones movie where Indiana Jones came to the edge of a cliff. He was challenged to step out over the cliff even though he couldn’t see a bridge beforehand. That’s not a bad picture of genuine faith. Faith is stepping out and doing what God has asked you to do when you can’t see what will happen in the end. You don’t know exactly what God’s going to do in the end, but you know he’s asking you to step out in faith.
Many times we’ll come to the edge of faith in our own lives. We’re not sure where things are headed. Maybe it is a decision to start a relationship with Jesus for the first time. Maybe you need to trust him with a business decision or something related to a relationship. There is a risk in stepping out in faith. Who will you trust? Will you trust in the Lord with all your heart? What if you’re wrong? Is it really God telling you to take the step of faith?
Practice the 80/20 principle

If you’ll do the 80 percent of God’s will that’s clear in the Bible, he’ll show you the 20 percent that’s not clear. In other words, love your neighbor. Spend time in God’s Word. Talk to God in prayer. Spend time with God’s people. Love your family. Love your kids. Protect the way that you speak to people. Be kind in your relationships. Be patient. Do the 80 percent that’s clear, and God will show you the rest.
So take the risk. Trust God with everything you have. Do what God has told you to do in His Word. Then, when God challenges you with a risk of faith, you’ll be more confident to do what God tells you to do.

Thanks for stopping by today for a CUP!

In the Love of Jesus Christ, Dewey Sharon and family

Faith Means Taking Risks
by Jon Walker

“You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.” (NLT)

Faith always means risk. Everything in life is a risk. Ecclesiastes 10:8 says, “When you work in a quarry, stones might fall and crush you! When you chop wood, there is danger with each stroke of your ax! Such are the risks of life” (NLT). There’s nothing we can do that doesn’t have some element of risk in it.
But the greatest risk of all is how we relate to other people and how we relate to God – the risk to do something about those relationships. Mark 12:30 says, “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength” (NLT). You take a risk when you love with all your heart. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Jesus reminded us that one of the greatest mistakes we can make is to play it safe with our lives. He said, “If you try to keep your life for yourself, you’ll lose it.”
You probably remember the part in the third Indiana Jones movie where Indiana Jones came to the edge of a cliff. He was challenged to step out over the cliff even though he couldn’t see a bridge beforehand. That’s not a bad picture of genuine faith. Faith is stepping out and doing what God has asked you to do when you can’t see what will happen in the end. You don’t know exactly what God’s going to do in the end, but you know he’s asking you to step out in faith.
Many times we’ll come to the edge of faith in our own lives. We’re not sure where things are headed. Maybe it is a decision to start a relationship with Jesus for the first time. Maybe you need to trust him with a business decision or something related to a relationship. There is a risk in stepping out in faith. Who will you trust? Will you trust in the Lord with all your heart? What if you’re wrong? Is it really God telling you to take the step of faith?
Practice the 80/20 principle

If you’ll do the 80 percent of God’s will that’s clear in the Bible, he’ll show you the 20 percent that’s not clear. In other words, love your neighbor. Spend time in God’s Word. Talk to God in prayer. Spend time with God’s people. Love your family. Love your kids. Protect the way that you speak to people. Be kind in your relationships. Be patient. Do the 80 percent that’s clear, and God will show you the rest.
So take the risk. Trust God with everything you have. Do what God has told you to do in His Word. Then, when God challenges you with a risk of faith, you’ll be more confident to do what God tells you to do.

Thanks for stopping by today for a CUP!

Dear KKIM/KARS/SHINE Family,
May the Peace and Strength of our Lord be with you this day and all days….

From Max Lucado…….

I Am Who I Am
Posted: 26 Jul 2011 11:01 PM PDT

“Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.” Matthew 14:27 NASB
Waves slapping his waist and rain stinging his face, Jesus speaks to [the disciples] at once. “Courage! I am! Don’t be afraid!”
Speaking from a burning bush to a knee-knocking Moses, God announced, “I AM WHO I AM” (Exodus 3:14 NASB).
God gets into things! Red Seas, Judean wildernesses, weddings, funerals, and Galilean tempests. Look and you’ll find what everyone from Moses to Martha discovered. God is in the middle of our storms.
WOW! Great Words!
How about this from Oswald Chambers, this brought me great peace and confidence yesterday……..
Patience is something we all struggle with at times right? I struggle with it less at my age, but still do at times…….
Chambers wrote……
Patience is the result of well-centered strength; it takes the strength of Almighty God to keep a man patient. No one can remain under and endure what God puts a servant of His through unless he has the power of God. We read that our Lord was “crucified through weakness,” yet it took omnipotent might to make Him weak like that.
WOW! What words…….
First things that hit me were…..I have to lay into God completely…….trust……and then when we are a servant of God…we will be put through trails, just like Paul and others…….we will need to endure hardship in Preaching the Gospel…..being disciples of Christ……we need to lay into the power of God to endure……I really think that is one of the reasons many are not BOLD in their Preaching for Jesus is that the World wears them down, that it get’s to be a lonely place….. ..I now laugh and hide (LOL! LOL!) when Pastor Jim Montoya keep’s praying for more Boldness for me!!! LOL! LOL! As I thought I have been BOLD in Preaching, but Jim keeps Praying for MORE BOLDNESS!!! I attempt to be BOLD in carrying out the Great Commission and being Salt and Light, I love everybody, but at times I offend people, for that I feel sorry about, But when you Preach the Word and stick to it and don’t water it down, being Salt and Light, we will offend some.
At times like this I refer to 2 Timothy 4……..
Proclaim the message: persist in it whether convenient or not: rebuke, correct, and encourage with great patience and teaching. For the time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will multiply teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear something new. They will turn away from hearing the truth and will turn aside to myths. But as for you, be serious about everything, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
I so love the letters of Paul…..We are in the time that many do not tolerate sound doctrine and are turning away from the truth. That time is now.
Thanks be to God!
I pray this brings you a chuckle!!! It did me!!!!
Dewey,
I thought you might find this interesting.
Blessings,
Wanell

The Green Thing

In the line at the store, the cashier told an older woman that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren’t good for the environment.

The woman apologized to him and explained, “We didn’t have the green thing back in my day.”

The clerk responded, “That’s our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment.”

He was right — our generation didn’t have the green thing in its day.

Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled.

But we didn’t have the green thing back in our day.

We walked up stairs, because we didn’t have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn’t climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks.

But he was right. We didn’t have the green thing in our day.

Back then, we washed the baby’s diapers because we didn’t have the throw-away kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy gobbling machine burning up 220 volts — wind and solar power really did dry the clothes. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing. But he is right; we didn’t have the green thing back in our day.

Back then, we had one TV, or radio, in the house — not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana .

In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didn’t have electric machines to do everything for us.

When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used a wadded up old newspaper to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap.

Back then, we didn’t fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn’t need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.

But he’s right; we didn’t have the green thing back then.

We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water.

We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.

But we didn’t have the green thing back then.

Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service.

We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn’t need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest pizza joint.

But isn’t it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn’t have the green thing back then?

Thanks Wanell! God Bless you!
