Dewey's Daily Cup

Dear KKIM Family,

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

I started a new study yesterday and I wanted to share with you………

Please pray before reading this CUP………Let your mind at ease now and give it all to God……..

Wrong motives are dangerous killers because they’re silent and hard to detect. They can easily ruin something (like your Family, Church or business) they can ruin something that started out so wonderful!!!

Ask God to show you any wrong motives you may be harboring so that you can confess them to Him and take steps to deal with them.

Paul, My hero! I crashed and burned like him! Then gave my life to God!

Paul wrote while he was in prison……….

“Don’t just look out for your own interests, but look out for the interests of others as well. That’s what Jesus did, and you should strive to be like Him not only in your actions but in your attitudes,” Paul stated. “For even though Jesus is God, He humbled Himself and came to earth, willing to take the form of a human. In doing this, He set aside all His privileges and honor as God’s Son. Even though Jesus knew that His actions would mean suffering, being mocked, being misunderstood, and eventually being killed, He did it anyway. he didn’t do it for personal gain. Instead, He did it for us. He did it out of love.

“Therefore,” Paul concluded, “since Jesus, being God, could humble Himself to become a servant, do we dare to think that we’re somehow above such things? may it never be! Let us not do things from selfish ambition, wrong motives, or for our own personal comfort or gain. Instead, let us have the same attitude as Christ Jesus our Lord——the attitude of humility.”

This new study I am doing is from Jackie Perseghetti’s, “Faith Factor”

By the way what Paul is speaking about is such a problem in our society today….even in the Church!

Chuck Swindoll on KKIM this morning quoted Fmr Notre Dame Football Coach Lou Holtz who said, “Twenty five years ago people talked
about fulfilling their obligations……..today all people talk about it seems in their rights!”

There is a lot of TRUTH in that!!!

This past weekend, at the Weekend To Remember, I had a lot of honey poured into my soul by many…….Thanking me for KKIM and the CUP……..It is not me……..it is not me……..I am just trying to do what the Lord has told me to do……..I am just trying not to do anything stupid each day……..Sharon and I are here to serve..not to be served………I pray to the Lord each day as to what He wants me to do…….How I try to live my life is just what Paul wrote about………serving……..

Wrong motives ruin great things………..

I have to say after talking to so many of you…..there is a strong disconnect going on in our State Government here in New Mexico with the Majority of the State Legislators.They can not identify or feel the pain of the common folk like you and me! The majority of the State Legislators have the wrong motives in life. Most of Today’s Politicians are disconnected from the common folk! They don’t feel the pain……..wrong motives…….Look for the ones that feel the pain and have a plan……..and are Godly!

Most Politicians look for the friendliest crowd……..a Pep rally……..they do not want to face the real people and our hurts!

I want to just mention this….there is a lovely lady from Brazil who lives in Albuquerque and she listens to KKIM everyday and reads the CUP……..She told me that she took the CUP on Responsibility of Men and re-wrote it in Portuguese and sent it to her brother in Brazil.

We never know what the Lord is going to do with our messages we put out……..that is why we must pray for His Will to be done in all that we do. In all that we do…..We must have Godly motives!

Thanks to you all who came up and introduced yourselves………very thankful for your fellowship!!!

Let me leave you with this funny bone that Karen Rowe tweeted to me today…….about her son Daniel……..

Daniel came to tell me of his mischief, “mom, remember, love is patient and love is kind, now I need to show you something.” : ) 1 Cor 13

LOL! LOL! LOL!

Let us pray…………….

Lord, Thank you for all those who attended the Weekend To Remember marriage Conference……We pray for their marriages……..we pray more will even come next year.In the name of Jesus, AMEN!

I am going to meet with Doug today of Family Life Today and we are going to go over this years conference and start planning for next year. If you are willing to help with this project just email me.

In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and Family

Dear KKIM family,

Dear KKIM Family,

Happy Valentines Day!

Stand against that which is wrong, show why it is wrong, overcome it and plant truth in its place. (A.W.) Tozer

“So, couldn’t you stay awake with Me one hour? Stay awake and pray, so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matt. 26:40-41

Here are the words of President Lincoln….this was found in his personal notes…….in his own hand writing………

“It is more pleasing to God to see His people study Him and His will directly than spend the first and chief of their efforts attaining comfort for themselves.”

When you deeply study the life of President Lincoln you find that he was a man who prayed as though he knew God heard him.

He was no sentimentalist—–he was a man’s man right down to his boots. After he committed something to his Father in heaven, that was it. It didn’t seem to trouble him anymore.

He trusted God and got on with things.

More on President Lincoln and prayer here at the CUP later……….As we as a Country celebrate Presidents Day tomorrow.

We have over 500 folks here at the Weekend To Remember! PRAISE GOD Thank you for praying for these friends who are focusing this weekend on their marriage..your prayers mean so much!

It is so AWESOME to visit with the members of the KKIM Family that are attending! PRAISE GOD!

Let us now go into prayer……….

PRAISE NOTE!!!

Dewey,

Yesterday afternoon, the Dr. decided to removed the ventilator, and all mouth and nose tubes. Brooke is breathing on her own very well, with a very tiny face mask for oxygen. Now that she is awake, she is coming off the heavy sedation drugs and will probably have a form of “withdrawal”. Please pray that this does not take too lone. We are so glad she is doing better. There is no word on how much longer she will have to be in the Hosp. I’m guessing at least another week. The next few days will be critical. Her lung is still healing, as long as she breaths well, she’ll be able to stay off the ventilator. Thanks for all your prayers. Our God has worked another miracle in her life. Praise be to Jesus, for God’s Glory Alone!!

Praise God! please keep praying……….

phase of their building project.
Pray for his healing and completion of the project.
God Bless, Pastor Jim

Our Friend Ed Moore of www.wfrn.com wanted to share this letter sent to him…….

Excerpt from the YWAM leader who ministers in St. Marc, Haiti

“We feel strongly to call the nations to pray and intercede for Haiti during these 3 days of prayer, repentance, and fasting that started this morning. We feel it will be the deciding factor for Haiti ’s future; will they choose repentance and God or go back to their old ways and not heed the call and the warnings. I would not like to think about what would happen if they did choose the latter…

“Everything is closed today and people are all working their way to the park!! It is so full that you can no longer get in. All the roads around it are filled… They are worshipping and praying; pastors are leading them but…could not hear what they were saying as there are so many people there. They have set up a stage to the right of the pavilion and have a worship band there.

“… (at) the corner by the arena (is) where the witchdoctor lives. He was dragging all his voodoo stuff out; he had dug it up in this yard and collected it from around his house, and was dragging it with him to the park to get rid of it all! He was telling people who were watching that he was going to give it all up.”

Excerpt from an American radio engineer who has visited Haiti many times:

I think that I will remember this day as one of the most significant in my life, not because of what I did, but for it’s meaning. In fact, what I did today was insignificant, and may have even distracted from me fully engaging in the day.

Today was the one month anniversary of the great Haitian earthquake.

About 3 days ago the Haitian president announced that there would be 3 days of holiday from work for the purpose of fasting and prayer. This is absolutely historic. If you have ever been in Haiti as a visitor or missionary, could you ever have imagined such a pronouncement? Could you image such an announcement from the U.S. president. This morning I saw a young Haitian-American woman, the leader of a work team, crying because the Americans could not understand the incredible importance of this day and wanted to go about business as usual. Remember, it was only about 6 years ago that a former Haitian president called the nation to come together to rededicate the nation to Satan.

This was not “a minute of silence for the deceased” or something as equally insignificant. Whatever the president might have originally intended, this because a real commitment for the Haitian people. As I sit here this evening, I can hear the preaching coming from a nearby church. Services have been going on all day.

Peniel and I had planned an inspection trip up to the Artibonite Valley today. Right or Wrong, I don’t really know, but since it was the only opportunity, we went ahead with the trip. As we left the guest house about 7:30 am, we were met by throngs of well dressed people headed to various churches. The sounds of Christian music and worship filled the air everywhere. The next observation was that there was NO traffic. Port-au-Prince streets are always clogged and overflowing with bumper to bumper traffic. This morning there were only a few vehicles on the roads, a few small buses (tap taps), some UN and military vehicles, and a few private cars. We had clear sailing through town. The same was true of foot traffic. Usually the streets are clogged also with people walking. Today there were only a few and many of them dressed for church. The only place that there were traffic blocks was in front of several churches where the congregations had overflowed the buildings, and the yards and had moved out into the streets as well.

The next observation was that EVERYTHING was closed! We could not find even one business or gas station open. There were no intercity buses running. Whereas the sidewalks are usually overflowing with millions of street venders, we only saw a few here and there. The huge outdoor market near the wharf where thousands work each day and spread out to cover most of the street, was EMPTY.

Where were all the people? They were in churches and makeshift meeting sites. Every church (except a JW church) had services going on, almost always overflowing into the streets. Beside broken down churches, services were taking place outside. In homeless camps, there were services. Everywhere the nation was gathered to worship and pray. No, I did not see any voodoo, Islamic, or buddaist services. This scene was repeated in every town and hamlet that we passed during the day.

Tonight, Pastor Ignace, who is sharing the room with me, asked this question: “Can people still say that Haiti is a voodoo country?” What has been happening and is continuing to happen in Haiti did not happen because of the earthquake. It has been happening because the Haitian people know how to pray. This is a tremendous outpouring of God’s power as the result of prayer. Twenty years ago I started praying for the Gospel to change the Haitian culture. I think that I am seeing God do that work.

The only sadness that I feel today is for our own nation. While a nation that has long been under Satan’s domination is turning to God with total commitment, our nation, founded on Godly values has rejected God and rapidly trying to forget that his name even exists. Let us pray for revival.

Jerry

We are praying for Revival!!!!!!!! We also are praying for Revival in the United

States!!!

Pastor Leonard Navarre who just recently returned from India passes this need of prayer to us………

Dear Leonard,

I received the following message from Ajai regarding the death of CICM evangelist Emmanuel Namro.

“I have talked to one of the preachers who has been working closely with Emmanuel Namro. Emmanuel was killed yesterday in a road accident as he was traveling with his family to visit his in-laws. There were 4 others who were killed with him as the truck he was traveling in hit a tree and the driver was driving with an extreme speed. His wife and one of the children had minor injuries. This morning his funeral took place around 11 a.m.”

You may remember Emmanuel from your visit to India. He usually gives his testimony to the American visitors. Here is a link to a video of Emmanuel sharing his testimony: https://www.box.net/shared/nehgzk8ghl. We want to thank Tim Liston from New Hope Church for recording the video and providing the narration.

Please be in prayer for Emmanuel’s wife and his children as they cope with the loss of their husband and father.

Serving Him,

As we recall how President Lincoln, and President Washington led our Country………………and the prayer life of both………..let us close with this scripture………

The steadfast in mind Thou will keep in perfect peace, because he trusts in Thee. Trust in the Lord forever, for in God, the Lord, we have an everlasting Rock. Isaiah 26:3-4
