Dewey's Daily Cup

Dear KKIM Family,

You cannot expect God to do the miraculous if you are not focused on your personal walk with HIM. You cannot expect God to do something through you if you are not allowing HIM to work in you every day of your life!!!!!!!!!! Pastor Ronnie Floyd

Let us make everyday Christmas………The Lord be with you!

PRAISE GOD All our kids where home for Christmas first time in years!

Thanks to you all for your Christmas cards, emails and phone calls!

Our walk with Jesus Christ determines everything about our life. Pastor Ronnie Floyd

Yes our walk with Jesus Christ……..This may sound like a simple story………but please read……When I showed up at Church yesterday I had no idea what the Lord had planned of course…….But I did have my agenda ……but after Church we had POT BLESSING……Food!!! anyhow, we had a meeting of all of us afterwards and I was put on the Church Board……..The reason I bring this up is…….This showed me once again we must be in prayer constantly and listening for the Lord.What would have happened if I did not go to Church yesterday. I would have missed what the Lord had planned……Forgive me Lord when I have not listened to You.

How many times have we missed the calling of the Lord because we were not in touch with HIM?

We have been talking about this now for weeks..spending an hour a day with the Lord at the start of each day……..praying and listening……..His will not ours……..

We all have plans………plans for 2010……..is the Lord in them?

Please let us focus on this scripture as we go on into 2010……..

Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit”

whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.”

James 4: 13-15

We got a very touching Christmas card from Deputy James McGrane Jr’s parents, Jim and Rita. You might remember that Deputy McGrane was assassinated by a thug. His Parents formed the Deputy McGrane Jr. Officer Street Training Survival Training Program.

Here is what was in the card………….

Our Hearts Ache and for ever will………

I fight not for glory or fame,

For they are momentary,

I fight for those who can’t,

I fight for Justice,

I fight for the oppressed and

the down trodden.

And if I should lose my life for these just

causes, then I have no regrets,

For I serve to protect the innocent.

It matters not where or when,

For evil know no boundaries.

Be it fire, flood, or a threat of tyranny,

I will not flee.

Justice is my weapon.

Faith is my shield.

Hope is my armor.

Cry not at my passing,

For it was my Honor to fight for you.

Shed not tears of sorrow,

But tears of joy,

For now,

I stand with God.

A Policeman’s prayer

I cried as I read that on air and as I type those words I cry………….

There is a message in there for each of us.

The calling of God’s people!

I have received a lot of comments on Pastor Paul Shepherd closing his Ministry because of a moral lapse. Many of you have shared that he was one of your favorite Bible Teachers. AMEN! he had a great following here on KKIM.

I pray that he will be restored and come back sometime.

Many of you also shared in disbelief that people are praying against Pastor’s! We need to put on the Armor of God each day……..Just think of that…..People praying for the downfall of Pastor’s.

Pray for your Pastor………..for all Pastor’s……….Pray for all Ministries……….Let us keep praying for each other and our families.

You were planned for God’s pleasure. You were formed for God’s family. You were created to become like Christ. You were shaped for serving God. You were made for a mission. Rick Warren

I am sitting hear listening to Family Life Today…….Is there any better Radio Ministry program than what Dennis Rainey and Bob Lepine put forth everyday? Family Life Today at 7am weekdays on KKIM.

I am so thankful for all our Ministry partners.

Just a reminder you can sign up for this years “Weekend to Remember” marriage Conference coming to New Mexico Valentines Day Weekend. Sharon and I went last year…….what an AWESOME conference! Get more info at www.mykkim.com

Let us pray…………

Lord, We pray for You will to be done in our lives……We pray for Pastor Paul Shepherd and all Pastor’s…..that they will stay strong and that Your people will surround all Pastor’s in prayer and support……That we all realize Spiritual warfare is all around us……And that we will put on Your Armor everyday. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!

In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family

The Lord gave me these words to share with you……….

He is thinking of all of us…..He is working on things you cannot even imagine!!! He is making babies……He is calling people home….The one who makes the Sunshine and the Moon glow and the Winds blow and the snow fall……..is also thinking of YOU!

Imagine that!!!! Do not worry…Christ is with YOU!

Dear KKIM Family,

Merry Christmas!

We Love you so much!

Jesus has diagnosed the pain of the world and written the book on its treatment. We can trust him. From Max Lucado

Who are you looking to follow? Or who are you following?

“Where is He who has been born King of the Jews?

For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.” Matt 2:2

As you read the following from Max Lucado……..I can’t help but think we need a “Elliot” type to run for Public office……..we need more Christ like people in our world! We need more Christ like people in our Government! We are all called to be Christ like, no matter who we are….or where we work……Who do so many become unlike Christ once they start rising to the top? You cannot be split in two….be like Christ in Church and then unlike Christ during the week……..We are to be filled with the Holy Spirit constantly….praying constantly…….listening to our Lord….may the Spirit of Christmas be with you EVERYDAY!……..Meet Elliot…………

Looking for the Messiah,
Part 1
by Max Lucado

SUPPOSE JESUS CAME to your church. I don’t mean symbolically. I mean visibly. Physically. Actually. Suppose he came to your church.

Would you recognize him? It might be difficult. Jesus didn’t wear religious clothes in his day. Doubtful that he would wear them in ours. If he came today to your church, he’d wear regular clothes. Nothing fancy, just a jacket and shoes and a tie. Maybe a tie … maybe not.

He would have a common name. “Jesus” was common. I suppose he might go by Joe or Bob or Terry or Elliot.

Elliot … I like that. Suppose Elliot, the Son of God, came to your church.

Of course, he wouldn’t be from Nazareth or Israel. He’d hail from some small spot down the road like Hollow Point or Chester City or Mt. Pleasant.

And he’d be a laborer. He was a carpenter in his day. No reason to think he’d change, but let’s say he did. Let’s say that this time around he was a plumber. Elliot, the plumber from Mt. Pleasant.

God, a plumber?

Rumor has it that he fed a football field full of people near the lake. Others say he healed a senator’s son from Biloxi. Some say he’s the Son of God. Others say he’s the joke of the year. You don’t know what to think.

And then, one Sunday, he shows up.

About midway through the service he appears in the back of the auditorium and takes a seat. After a few songs he moves closer to the front. After yet another song he steps up on the platform and announces, “You are singing about me. I am the Son of God.” He holds a Communion tray. “This bread is my body. This wine is my blood. When you celebrate this, you celebrate me!”

What would you think?

Would you be offended? The audacity of it all. How irreverent, a guy named Elliot as the Son of God!

Would you be interested? Wait a minute, how could he be the Son of God? He never went to seminary, never studied at a college. But there is something about him …

Would you believe? I can’t deny it’s crazy. But I can’t deny what he has done.

It’s easy to criticize contemporaries of Jesus for not believing in him. But when you realize how he came, you can understand their skepticism.

Jesus didn’t fit their concept of a Messiah. Wrong background. Wrong pedigree. Wrong hometown. No Messiah would come from Nazareth. Small, hick, one-stoplight town. He didn’t fit the Jews’ notion of a Messiah, and so, rather than change their notion, they dismissed him.

He came as one of them. He was Jesus from Nazareth. Elliot from Mt. Pleasant. He fed the masses with calloused hands. He raised the dead wearing bib overalls and a John Deere Tractor cap.

They expected lights and kings and chariots from heaven. What they got was sandals and sermons and a Galilean accent.

And so, some missed him.

And so, some miss him still.
