A Cup full of Mail KKIM/DDC

Dear KKIM Family,

Praise God we are together today!

Sharon and I pray that the Lord grant you all His Strength and Peace!

Yesterday we talked about spending one hour a day with God. I have been working on this Cup since 5:30 this morning, it's almost 7am, praying as I am writing this to you! And reading scripture as I write to you.....Scripture that the Holy Spirit sends me to as I go about writing this Cup!!! It's so FUN!!! For God's Glory Alone!

Let us remember..........

"train yourself in godliness, for the training of the body has limited benefits, but godliness is beneficial in every way, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come" 1 Tim. 4:7-8

There is nothing like being filled with God given passion!!!!!

I need to share with you this from my Twitter Account.........
I pray that more of you will join us on Twitter........ www.twitter.com/radiodewey

China is gaining more and more power over the United States......
Sorry Folks, but our President is in way over his head! He makes mistake after mistake. We must pray for Godly leaders to be raised up in our Country!


Please pray for Our Dear friend Sam..........

Oh Dewey, Yet 'Another' very uplifting 'Cup' this beautiful 'God-Given Day'. I would like the 'prayer warriors' to remember me in their prayers this week. I have been having a different problem than my neck, and they will start tests on me tomorrow. I know that whatever the problem, our Lord Knows. So it is not a 'Big deal. Just a prayer that God will continue to give me His Peace while this is going on. That is all I can ask of Him.
Thank you in advance, sam p.s. what a blessing the story of 'Merry Christmas' was !! I plan on saying it ALOT this season! ;)

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas Sam!!!!

Yesterday we told you about the passing of Ret. Army Lt. Col. Orlando Greigo.....here is a note from KKIM health Coach Cindy Russell........


Dewey,

Thank you and our KKIM family so much for all your prayers for my Uncle Orlando! He was a Believer! During this difficult time, it gives us peace and strength knowing that he is with our Lord Jesus!

Abundant Blessings,

Cindy


We got an email from our Dear friend Kay who has known me for years and years..........

Dewey ~

RE: "There is nothing more important than spending time with God!" (from Monday's Cup)

Amen - You are 100% right on!

I appreciate the positive, encouraging tone of Cup after Cup.

~ Kay

I am praying for your Los Alamos house closing, refinancing for your Albuquerque house, for the Lord's guidance and provision for the shortfall in what you need to pay off your loan, and for what He wants you to learn through this. (We are all learning through life, if we are teachable.)

Sharon and I want to thank you all who have prayed for the sale of our Los Alamos house for almost 3 years!!!! The house sold on Thursday!!! PRAISE GOD!!! Many many have prayed for the sale of the house! We now are dealing with a financial shortfall in the sale........please pray for a resolution to that. We know that the Lord is foaming the runway for a resolution to that situation. Many, many American's are in the same boat as Sharon and I are in, Housing continues to lose it value. Our home that we purchased here in Albuquerque 2 1/2 years ago has lost over 100,000 in value! But the taxes have almost tripled! A huge problem in New Mexico, property taxes went way up!

As Kay refers to learning through this..Amen to that! We bought the home in Albuquerque under the condition we would be able to pay a loan off in a short time with the sale of the Los Alamos house. Huge mistake on our part, assuming the Los Alamos house would sell.

This has caused us great heart break....huge financial challenges........

Sharon and I refer to these scriptures.........

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him. And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3: 5-6

AMEN to that! Sharon and I relied to much on our human knowledge and emotions through the start of this.

Also this scripture.......

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". James 4:13

That tells the story.......Thank you Lord for giving Sharon and I the freedom in You to share this story to help others...to encourage others to seek You first in all decisions. We bought into the housing plan on too much emotions and did not seek the Lord's wisdom enough!

Looking back on 20/20 vision we would never had bought this house without the sale of the Los Alamos house first!

But we must seek the Lord in all decisions........Let us not lean on our own little wisdom......but the Lord's! His will not ours!

Thanks again my friends for letting us share this story with you...it's sort of a cleansing for Sharon and I to share this with you.

Please keep us in your prayers as we go about seeking the Lord's path in resolving this situation. We love you!

Now let's have some honey......honey to the soul.............We all need to share honey with each other to sooth the soul........

We’ve meant to congratulate you on becoming a Pastor in addition to your radio ministry work….you sound like a very motivated individual and a credit to the Lord’s work..

Thank you Bob and Laura........and to Dave and Rahn and the www.windomnews.com for there write up!

Yesterday Michael had a little rant on Veterans Day and it resulted on the following letters from Dustin and Jay........


Dewey,

Here is an article a co-worker wrote. I thought this would be a good answer to Michael in Seattle.

Our Veterans

By Mark Everts



The air is getting colder, the leaves are falling and we are approaching not only the end of the calendar year, but the Holiday Season as well. We all have many things to be thankful for - our families, our health, and our jobs, to name a few.



But when we think of the Holiday Season, we often overlook one of the most inspiring days of remembrance of the entire year - Veteran's Day, November 11th.



The first recognition for our nation's veterans came at the end of World War I, when President Woodrow Wilson signed a declaration to make November 11th - then known as Armistice Day - a day of remembrance to honor those who gave their lives during The Great War.



In 1938, President Franklin Roosevelt made Armistice Day a national holiday. Citizens were encouraged to participate in parades, gatherings and observances and to decorate the graves of veterans in the nation's cemeteries.



In the early 1970's, Congress created a separate Veteran's Day, but observed it in October. Many states refused to go along with the October date as they believed November 11th to be a more appropriate and traditional day of observance.



In 1975, President Gerald Ford signed legislation that combined Veteran's Day with the traditional Armistice Day and set the day of observance as November 11th. The legislation also recognized all veterans from all the nation's wars.





In Christ,
Dustin Keith

And also another reply to Michael.......from Jay........


Hello Rig, (Jay is an old friend who calls me Rig for Bill Rigney FMR Twins Mgr,)

..Dewey,
..here's a little rant of my own.

..When did we collectively in the U.S. stop calling November 11 "Armistice Day" and start calling it "Veterans' Day"?


From Wikipedia

U.S. President Woodrow Wilson first proclaimed an Armistice Day for November 11, 1919. The United States Congress passed a concurrent resolution seven years later on June 4, 1926, requesting the President issue another proclamation to observe November 11 with appropriate ceremonies. An Act (52 Stat. 351; 5 U.S. Code, Sec. 87a) approved May 13, 1938, made the 11th of November in each year a legal holiday; "a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated and known as 'Armistice Day'."

In 1953, an Emporia, Kansas shoe store owner named Al King had the idea to expand Armistice Day to celebrate all veterans, not just those who served in World War I. King had been actively involved with the American War Dads during World War II. He began a campaign to turn Armistice Day into "All" Veterans Day. The Emporia Chamber of Commerce took up the cause after determining that 90% of Emporia merchants as well as the Board of Education supported closing their doors on November 11, 1953, to honor veterans. With the help of then-U.S. Rep. Ed Rees, also from Emporia, a bill for the holiday was pushed through Congress. President Dwight Eisenhower signed it into law on May 26, 1954.[3]

Congress amended this act on November 8, 1954, replacing "Armistice" with Veterans, and it has been known as Veterans Day since.[4][5]

More in the mailbag...............

Dewey, Welcome back! Powerful cup! May I share inspiration from God as I read...

"Most of my life is given toward preparation. It seems I am always preparing for something."

Amen! God is always moving us forward and upward!!! I 3rd that!!! Morning time is vital to preparing to live a good life and serve...to hear the voice of God direct our path and keep us straight and to well balance our day...spiritually, physically, emotionally...to be strong in faith...to be built up in our most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit!

Recently, I was encouraged by Charles Stanley ...not to let criticism bring me down...I was prepared for man's criticism...HOWEVER, to my surprise...my own worst critic was in me WHEN I was NOT built up STRONG in MY MOST HOLY FAITH!
Satan sneaks in and can lead us to submit to our own criticism...or Satan's criticism that we can believe to be ours??? Lies!

BUT...God leads us...
Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding:
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."

Also, my mom's favorite Bible verse and since she has shared that with me, it has become new to me!!! And real and alive to me!

I can stand against any criticism when I am strong in Faith to KNOW that I have pleased God...but when a doubt comes in my own self and I allow critics to sit in me...??? It was Satan! Go figure! ???
But ...Greater is God in me!!!

"Build yourself up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit." and Stand FIRM in faith...a strong faith!

One more power point from your cup today...PEACE...I love the thought of world peace...

Study notes in the Bible describes peace:
"Peace - The profound well-being of soul that flows from the experience of God's grace."

Peace needs to be sought in our life and prayer life... Peace seems to be forgotten, even at Christmas...
I forgot to take down a "peace and good will toward men" banner last year...Every day I would see it @ night when I would sit...too tired to take it down; only to forget it again, UNTIL, I saw meaning in the words...ended up leaving this banner up on purpose for almost a year as a reminder about peace. I received new meaning to peace in my life by looking @ the word for God's meaning in it...

We are... called,... loved by God... and kept by Jesus
Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance.

All quotes from Jude 1 and 2 & 20
Jude 3
"I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints."

Jude 20..."Build yourself up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit."

There's more...let us seek HIM...I encourage meditation on Jude 20...to hear God speak...it has been powerful and enlightening in my life! God Bless...

Love in Christ,
Karen

I have to share this with you folks.......I am so blessed to know Karen....what an inspiration she is!!! She is on fire for the Lord! Thanks for stepping out for HIM, Karen!


Frank loves the stuff we have been sharing from Ronnie Floyd.........

Thanks Dewey, have you ever heard Ronnie Floyd's testimony?? You'd love it. Get him on your show sometime. He's preached in my church.. I really like him.


Frank

Let us pray.................

Lord, Thank you for giving us the freedom to make ourselves vulnerable to You and Your people.......as we want others to learn from our mistakes and grow closer to You in their walk with You. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!!!

In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
