Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Thanks so much for stopping by for a CUP with us…….we are so thankful for you and yours!
We love you all in our Lord Jesus Christ! AMEN!
Sharon is guest speaker at Rock Rio’s Women’s Ministry this Saturday night at 6pm. Go to www.rockrio.net for more information! Please pray for Sharon as she prepares her message! God Bless you all! I pray that you will attend.
For the last several months, my heart sinks deeper when I pick up the morning newspaper. My discernment picks up of the anger and sorrow in our world. The newspaper here, the Albuquerque Journal does a fairly good job of covering our state and city. I now take the paper and pray over it, for the light of Jesus Christ to shine in our city and state, and nation. I also pray that FGGAM continues to be a blessing to, one person at a time, one person at a time. We can not just pray…..we have to walk and talk for Jesus Christ and reach out to others. We have to be a people that takes Godly action.
Today I am praying for you to have more Godly discernment.
Yesterday I was able to talk to three of my hero’s in life! My Dear, Dear friend Paul Dokken in South Dakota,(by the way Paul and his wife Rene are supporters of FGGAM, which we thank our Lord for) Jack Kelly and Ron Meyer of Windom, Minn my hometown. You see these three men have made a huge impact on my life that I carry with me to this day. Paul and I went to school together and we reconnected just a few years ago and he has helped me grow in the Lord, he has become a prayer warrior for this Ministry and my family, he and Rene. Jack Kelly was a Coach back home. Jack needs a kidney, please pray for this man and also his wife Marilyn who has cancer. He was not only a Coach, but a teacher, a leader.he still is! He taught lessons to all of us that knew him and we carry that with us today. I will never forget back in the 60’s when a little boy fell into a gravel pit back home and the Fire Dept. was called, My Dad and Jack served together of the Fire Dept, and I can still see the fireman and Jack still digging at that gravel trying to get to that little Van Norman boy. The little Van Norman boy did not make it, but that scene has stuck with me to this day…..to help people, to be of service in a seconds notice, to have a Fireman’s mentality when it comes to serving God, be on call 24/7. be a man of Godly action. Ron Meyer was football coach back home and I served as his assistant. I served him as Eqt. Manager, Locker room attendant, and trainer. Coach Meyer taught me much about tough love. He taught me much about dedication to the task. He trusted me with much, I would even drive his car. I told Ron yesterday that I still remember him introducing me at the Sr. Athletic banquet and calling me Ron Meyer Jr. That touched me so and made me weep tears of joy. I have been so blessed with all the Godly people in my life from the day I was born to where I am at now. Take time today and think back on those who have touched your life in a Godly way, and thank the Lord for them and then strive to serve others, the way you have been served.
Make that call today to someone who has impacted your life, years ago I called my 6th Grade Teacher Clara Rasche to tell her how she helped me so, she passed on shortly after that call. Do not wait any longer to make that call of love.
We just received word overnight on the passing of Pastor Jim Montoya’s Mother-in-law, Amelia. We are praying for you Pastor Jim and Margaret! Our prayers are with the family.
One of the reasons I love the CUP so, is that people gather together here each day and pray for one another. Even thou many of us have never met face to face we know each other. We become family. I love it when I go some where and someone comes up to me and says, “I know you, your Dewey, I read your CUP everyday!” PRAISE GOD!
Yesterday we told you of the passing of Amy. I talked to her hubby Harry yesterday and we had a wonderful Godly conversation. It was a blessing to be able to talk to Harry. He really appreciates your prayers, he is fully aware of all of you here at the CUP!
Heni Nouwen wrote this…….I pray that this will touch your heart, soul, and mind………
Henri leads us to glimpse the reality of our own approaching death, yes our own., but not a death of fear or traumatic., but a “return to the womb of God” Communion with God grows deep inside us and we gradually learn a trust so tangible that we begin to imagine our death as a “letting go” of the swing on the flying trapeze. Henri quotes the trapeze artist Rodleigh , who says, “When I fly to Joe, I have simply to stretch out my arms and hands and wait for him to catch me and pull me safely over the apron behind the catchbar……The worst thing a flyer can do is try to catch the catcher.” Dying is trusting the catcher,” says Henri. “Don’t try to grab Him; He will grab you. Just stretch our your arms and hands and trust, trust, trust.”
I got two notes on Amy yesterday that really touched my heart………….Please read these messages slowly…..such impactful messages from Victor and Sandy.
I am so sad to hear of Amy’s passing. While I never met her in person, I read of her fight on the Cup and had a memorable encounter with her there. One day last year I was the guest Barista for the Cup and wrote about my fight with chronic back pain. In it I referenced Isaiah 41:10 and turned it in to a personal dialogue with God. I don’t remember exactly what I wrote but after reading it Amy told Dewey she would take it with her to upcoming chemotherapy sessions. I am still blown away by this and moved when I think about it. I saw a post from Dewey on Facebook a few weeks ago about Amy’s condition and offered a written prayer for her there, which she “Liked”. Again, there was a small connection. Clearly Amy fought the good fight and is alive “for reals” now with her Savior. But I think it’s okay to be sad and angry over her loss. Satan and this fallen world have claimed another precious life. This is not how it’s supposed to be, but the victory is temporary. Lord Jesus, please comfort and strengthen Amy’s family and loved ones…and come back soon!
Victor G. Martinez
Thank you for sharing Victor………By the way, Amelia is the grandmother of Victor’s wife Pam. We are praying for you all Victor!
Now Sandy Harrington who interviewed Amy on her show 4 1/2 years ago shares this…….
My heart and prayers go out to Amy’s family! What a wonderful and strong woman of God she was. I totally agree with you Dewey that her message on Something About Women that day was not of pity or fear but to educate women on Inflammatory Breast Cancer. Rest in God’s arms Amy … your mission on earth has been complete!
Sandy
Thank you for sharing Sandy………..
As we mourn the loss here on earth of Amy and Amelia let me share more on Trusting our God Almighty……….This is from David Peach! before you read the following please take time to take out your Bible and just don’t read the verse, read the whole text as David suggests. I know some of you read the CUP at work and don’t have time to study, but please do at home.
Here are some wonderful verses about trust in the Bible. Remember that verses have some larger context. Take time to look up in your Bible the chapter where the verse is found to see the events or other verses surrounding these words. Also, don’t forget to take a couple minutes to view the video “Unchanging” by Chris Tomlin that is posted to the right. It reminds us that we can trust God because He is unchanging.
2 Corinthians 3:4-6 “And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.”
Trust God; He is the Stronghold
Psalm 18:2 “The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.”
Psalm 91:2 “I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.”
Nahum 1:7 “The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him. ”
Trust God; He is the Protector
2 Samuel 22:31 “As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.”
Job 13:15 “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.”
Psalm 7:1 “O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:”
Psalm 25:1, 2 “Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.”
Proverbs 30:5 “Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.”
Trust God; He will Deliver as Promised
Psalm 9:10 “And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.”
Psalm 22:4 “Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.”
Psalm 37:5 “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”
Psalm 56:3 , 4 “What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee. In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.”
Psalm 71:5 “For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.”
Isaiah 26:3 “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”
1 Timothy 4:10 “For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.”
Trust God; Nothing on Earth Can Compare
Psalm 20:7 “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.”
Psalm 32:10 “Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.”
Psalm 118:8 “It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.”
Proverbs 3:5 “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
Something the Consider: Are you putting your faith and trust in the Lord? Some people seem to trust God with their eternal salvation, but they have trouble trusting Him for their every-day life. Take comfort from these words of scripture. You can trust God with your needs today.

Holy Spirit Blowout – December 28-29. See announcement below.
November 14, 2012.Are you ready? How is your life representing that you are wisely righteous and not stupid and worldly? I desire and seek faithful ones who will not turn from Me during difficult times. Can I count on you? You have a reputation for being faithful. You are loyal and true to those you love. My love is evident in you as you express the Christ life. I have found you. You are my chosen one. The qualities in your life will become infectious in others. Be confident and very bold. We back you up in your determination to quicken the Holy Spirit in others. The Lord smiles at the sound of your name. You are ready.. Psalm 14:2 (MSG) “GOD sticks his head out of heaven. He looks around. He’s looking for someone not stupid- one man, even, God-expectant, just one God-ready woman.” Ras Robinson Subscribe to “What the Lord Is Saying Today” November 14, 2012. Something you’ve heard is disturbing. This is not your affair to deal with directly. Yes it does affect you but this is not your issue to handle. Your role here is to listen, support and pray for all involved. I know exactly what needs to be done and when to do it. Your prayer is needed but you aren’t to get under it emotionally. You need to keep your emotions cool so you can hear Me about how to pray. Haven’t you been here before in similar situations? First, roll all of this over on Me. Remember past victories. Believe for the best. Have faith. This too will end victoriously. Ephesians 6:18 (NASB) “With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints,”Bev Robinson Scroll down to see “Photo of the Day” from our ministry to children in the Philippines. November 14, 2012. Be about having My friendly presence with you at all times. I came and still come to you in a warm, approachable, and sociable fashion. Present yourself to others as one who has a firm grip on who you are because of Me. When others greet you, represent Me as the one true Lord. I AM the One, who delights in you. I AM the one who changes the atmosphere with just one word. Embrace the fact that My word is within your soul. When you move and speak, let My word inside you transform the air in a positive way. Every moment will be enjoyable and pleasant as I AM enjoyable and pleasant. John 15:11-14 (MSG) “I’ve told you these things for a purpose: that my joy might be your joy, and your joy wholly mature. This is my command: Love one another the way I loved you. This is the very best way to love. Put your life on the line for your friends. You are my friends when you do the things I command you.
