Dear KKIM/KARS/SHINE Family,
Attention, all! See the marvels of God!
He plants flowers and trees all over the earth,
Bans war from pole to pole,
breaks all the weapons across his knee.
“Step out of the traffic! take a long,
loving look at me, your High God,
above politics, above everything.”
Psalm 46: 8-10 The Message
God’s mercy is boundless, free and, through Jesus Christ our Lord, available to us now in our present situation. Pastor, Writer, A.W. Tozer
God is the best puzzle maker ever! He takes the pieces and put’s them together like we never would have guessed. He fit’s us in where we would never had thought we would fit!!!!!!!! AMEN PRAISE GOD!
Let us pray for Lela Martinez. She is the Mother of Jeanell Abeyta, who is such a Dear, Dear, friend.
Lela had broken her hip and then developed other problems including an infection. We are praying for complete healing.
Join me in constantly praying for healing for Lela.
We pray this in the name of Jesus, AMEN!
I would like to share a story with you this morning……..
Sandy Harrington on her show Thursday was scheduled to have a lady by the name of Jennifer on her program, which airs 3:30 Thursday’s on KKIM/KARS.
Jennifer has an auto-immune disease, and she was unable to come Thursday because she was in the hospital.
Jennifer’s Mom, Bernadette cam instead. Sandy asked me if I would pray for Jennifer on air.
Bernadette read a letter that Jennifer asked her to read on air…It broke my heart to listen to Mom read the letter her daughter had written, it was full of apologies by Jennifer, saying she was so sorry she could not do this or that at times because she is sick. It just broke my heart…….
When I was asked to pray….I first said Jennifer need not apologize, as we are to serve her…..we are here for her…..Let us surround Jennifer in love and prayer.
Please grab your Bible and go to Acts 3…….I read that and then prayed for complete healing for Jennifer…….
Then yesterday………..
About Noon, my phone rang…….I was talking to Lavella Hickman in Laporte, Indiana who this past year lost her husband, I could see Sandy Harrington was calling……then the phone rang again…..I figured I better get it…….
It was Jennifer’s Mother, Bernadette calling…she was crying……..she told me that at the exact time I was praying on air for Jennifer, Doctor’s had feared an optic nerve had closed, but during that time of prayer and the procedure of checking the Optic nerve they found it to be 85% Improved!
For God’s Glory Alone!
Also the same day on Dr. Kyle Martin’s program he was talking about the fact we lack faith! We lack faith! Why doesn’t God answer some prayers? Kyle really hit a homerun all week talking about lack of faith and unanswered prayer!
I am seeing miracles in this day and time.
Is anyone among you sick? he should call for the elders of the Church, and they should pray over him after anointing him with olive oil in the name of the Lord.
Read all of James 5: 13-16 please…..
Now let me say this my friends, when I first came to the Los Lunas Church of God as Associate Pastor a lovely lady had gone through a loss of a child because of cancer, I lost my Mom of cancer and we prayed and prayed. Then we had people say hurtful things to us kids, “Oh we prayed and my Mom was healed!” Not what hurting people need to hear after the death of a loved one.
I have studied God’s Word, I have studied healing, I have studied grieving…….
I believe that Chuck Swindoll is one of the greatest writers on earth for God. He does such a Godly work in all his book’s. I love the one on the life of Paul.
I Preached on the subject of healing and also when people are not healed last night on New Mexico News and Views. What? Preaching on a News program, YES! That is the difference between the Light and Darkness, we bring the news forward that people need to know , not the garbage on secular news.
The World needs more PREACHING! AMEN!
Anyhow, I am going to share with you now a bit of what I preached on Healing and when people are not healed, like my Mom, Ruth, all for God’s Glory Alone…I have to leave now for the Radio Ranch and then I will be at the Car Show all day Sunday, Father’s Day, at Valley View Christian Church in Edgewood, hope to see you there!
I leave you with these thoughts from Chuck Swindoll and myself…….
“Pain plants the flag of reality in the fortress of a rebel heart.” Mother’s and Father’s keeping a vigil in the leukemia ward of a children’s hospital do not wrestle with issues of pride. They are humbled to the point of despair.
Saul had a painful affliction, which he called a “thorn in the flesh”
Read Saul’s own words…….And because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh. 2 Corinthians 12:7
Now we don’t really know what that “thorn” was, many have guessed, but we really don’t know.
Saul turned again and again to our Lord to remove that “thorn”
God gave an answer that Saul never expected….NO
But God offered something far better than relief……Sufficient grace. “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” That’s where this man of grace and grit got his remarkable perspective on human weakness.
Saul lived it. He received that message from the Lord. NO, that was God’s final answer to his prayer for deliverance from suffering.
It is not always God’s will that we be healed.
God is forming us more and more into the image of His Son, it helps us to understand His answer is based on His long range plan, not our immediate relief.
Thankfully, in the midst of that suffering, He gently whispers, “My grace is sufficient for you.”
As with Saul, His grace supplies more than we need to endure whatever threatens to undo us………WOW! Read that again! God’s grace is more POWERFUL than a nuclear bomb!!!!!!!!
God’s grace is so more sufficient than our strength!
His grace is more sufficient than the advise of any trained counselor or close friend (though God uses both). His grace is sufficient to carry you through whatever your own , unique “Thorn” may be.
God’s grace is the ticket!
That is the theme of Swindoll’s message with a little Dewey thrown in there……..
I need to say this..Too many people are going to counselor’s and they keep going and getting NOTHING NOISE! Too much counseling is dysfunctional!
The main Counselor is God! God’s Word!
Work on your relationship with HIM! call upon God, He will send His helper the Holy Spirit to you!
Too many people are making a living, being paid, to counsel Christians…….that is not a work of God.
I covet your prayers this day and all days for me and Sharon and the kid’s and the Radio Ranch!
I did not intend to write this day, but the Lord moved me to do so…….
In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and Family
