Dewey's Daily Cup

Dear KKIM Family,

Nearly 500 new visitors to the web site in October!!! Praise God!!!

If you have ever wanted to give something to the Daily Cup………..may I suggest you please give to the effort we have going on to support the poorest of the poor, Orphans. Please go to http://www.mykkim.com/ and prayfully consider helping in this HUGE effort. No matter where you read this you can help with this effort.

Before we start……………….a word from Oswald Chambers……….

We have to get out of the old pagan way of guiding ourselves by our head and get into the Christian way of being guided by faith in a personal God, whose methods are a perpetual contradiction to our every preconceived notion.

The LORD is my strength and my shield, my heart trusted in HIM, and I am helped. Psalm 28:7

Please pray for all those in Albuquerque that worked at Eclipse Aviation and did not get paid yesterday. About 1,100 were told yesterday that the company did not have the money to pay them for their last two weeks of work and the State told them all to go home and await word about the companies future.

Let us all put our feet in the shoes of all those losing their jobs. Can you imagine how it felt to go into work and being told you will not be paid for your last two weeks of work?

Today call some one you have not heard from and ages.

Today tell a stranger hello.

Today give someone a nice surprise………make their day!

Let us all turn to Our Father in Heaven!

I had State Rep. Janice E. Arnold Jones on New Mexico News and Views yesterday talking about the Eclipse situation and when asked about the situation, Janice was not quick to answer…….as she said sometimes we do not have the answers…..she is so right on……Man can try to solve the present economic condition of this country……..but our TRUE answer in life is in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Here is note from one of our dear friends, Joe Page. Joe and Linda of Car Pro’s Auto Sales have been a strong supporter of KKIM since I came to be with the Radio Ministry. We are teaming with Joe and Linda’s Church Montgomery Church of Christ to help get the word out about their free Thanksgiving meal for those in need. More information on this posting………..But I wanted to share with you a note that Joe sent………

Keep up the good work Dewey! We’re in the trenches everyday. We recently had a men’s breakfast honoring veterans; when asked what branch of the service that I was in, I responded- ” The Lord’s Army”, so that what they wrote on my name tag. JP

Joe is so right about being part of the Lord’s Army! Remember that old time song……….Onward Christian Soldiers? I miss hearing that………that is the type of song we need to be playing today as things get very tough for many. We are all part of God’s Army…….Let us all reach out to those in need. Let us all stick together in Christ.

A special hello to Vickie and Lew of A-1 Travel, John Chitwood of Southern Blvd. Automotive, Bob Daniel, Robert Gibson all long time sponsors of KKIM!!!! God Bless you all!!!! To all of you who help sponsor KKIM, thanks so much for being with us!!!!

News from Kyle Martin, Jason Samuel, Goshen College Indiana……….The Indiana Connection!!!

Talked with Kyle Martin yesterday. You hear Kyle Sunday mornings at 8:30 on KKIM, he led Revive Santa Fe. The Goshen newspaper is doing a write up on Kyle. Kyle’s hometown of Middleburry is right outside Goshen. Goshen is the home of the famous Goshen College, where one of my former staffers of WFRN, Jason Samuel is the manager of the College Radio station. Anyhow I still have many ties to Indiana as you can tell. I was asked by the reporter of the Goshen News why I put Kyle on KKIM. Simple…..God told me to. He is young, very passionate about God and God’s word…….he has a message that needs to be heard, and we need new blood in Radio Ministry across the world. Listen to Kyle at 8:30am Sundays right after Pastor Vic Tafoya.

Just one more thing……When you go to http://www.mykkim.com/ and go to our program guide you will find out more about Kyle and his Church the Dallas Bible Church.

More thoughts from Oswald Chambers…….

JESUS NEVER MENTIONED unanswered prayer, He had the boundless certainty that prayer is always answered.

Here is a question to reflect on……….

What prayer am I trying to answer in my own strength?

Wow, what a question!

Okay now here is more details on the Montgomery Church of Christ Thanksgiving meal for the needy….they also need help serving. Can you help?

For those who may be struggling to have a good Thanksgiving meal, the Montgomery Church of Christ will be serving families within our community on Thanksgiving day, from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm, at no charge. The church is located at 7201 Montgomery NE, two blocks east of Louisiana on the north side of the street. A delicious traditional meal will be available. A phone call to the church would be appreciated (but not required) just to let them know how many will be with you. Call 884-7926. Again, Montgomery Church of Christ, 7201 Montgomery NE, lunch from 11:00 to 2:00 on Thanksgiving Day, no charge. Come. Be the guest of our Lord.

Let’s check that mailbag………I love mail! I would love to hear from you! Drop me a line…..Sharon and I would love it!

Dewey, Thank you for the wonderful encouragement in today’s Midweek Cup. What sweet, sweet stories and words of wisdom that we need to hear. Glad Pastor Don is doing well. We are so blessed to have the power of prayer as such a vital part of our healing process! How could we ever go through life without Jesus! I am so blessed that my mother exposed me to Christ when I was young instead of “letting” me decide for myself as an adult as so many do today. My mother at 95 is suffering from dementia and has lost a great deal of her memory. BUT, she remembers her faith and sings old hymns over and over for comfort from her fear of not remembering other things.
Will be praying for you and Sharon today too. Love in Christ, Cherie Snow

Hi Dewey,

Great stores Dewey, especially the little boy and the shoes and the other little boy “helping the old man cry”. Made me weep. Thanks, Frank (The Old Texan) Haley cjf Isa. 9:6″When the sunshine of God’s love meets the showers of our sorrow, the rainbow of promise appears.”

Dewey, PLEASE watch this……KKIM sure helped me get through this election, what a wonderful job you all did…..THANK YOU, Jan

Dewey, there’s a rumor going around that “God owns the cattle on a thousand hills.” Think He might sell a few? You’ll enjoy this illustration I used recently on one of my programs, in that regard:
“Shortly after Dallas Theological Seminary was founded in 1924, it almost came to the point of bankruptcy. All the creditors were going to foreclose at noon on a particular day. That morning they met in the president’s office with Dr. Chafer for prayer that God would provide. In that prayer meeting was a man by the name of Dr. Harry Ironside. When it was his turn to pray, he prayed in his characteristic manner:

“Lord, we know that the cattle on a thousand hills are Yours. Please sell some of them and send us the money.”

While they were praying, a tall Texan with boots on and an open collar stepped up to the business office outside and said, “I just sold two carloads of cattle and I feel compelled to give the money to the seminary. I don’t know if you need it or not, but here’s the check!”

A little secretary took the check and, knowing how critical things were financially, rushed to the door of the prayer meeting and timidly tapped. When she finally got a response, Dr. Chafer took the check out of her hand. It was exactly the amount of the debt! When he looked at the name, he recognized the cattleman in Ft. Worth, and turning to Dr. Ironside he said, ‘Harry, God sold the cattle!'”

Dewey, any cattlemen out there in the KKIM family”

Here is a great story from our AWESOME FRIEND NIK…………..

May His Son bless you from today on out!

Why do I always have to be the one that starts to do laundry and there’s no detergent? I guess it was time for me to do my ‘Dollar Store’ run, which included light bulbs, paper towels, trash bags and Clorox. So off I went.I scurried around the store, gathered up my goodies, and headed for the checkout counter only to be blocked in the narrow aisle by a young man that appeared to be about sixteen years old. I wasn’t in a hurry, so I patiently waited for the boy to realize that I was there…This was when he waved his hands excitedly in the air and declared in a loud voice, ‘Mommy, I’m over here.’ It was obvious now, he was mentally challenged, and also startled as he turned and saw me standing so close to him, waiting to squeeze by. His eyes widened and surprise exploded on his face as I said, “Hey Buddy, what’s your name?””My name is Denny and I’m shopping with my mother,” he responded proudly.”Wow,” I said, “that’s a cool name; I wish my name was Denny, but my name is Hal.””Hal like Halloween?” he asked.”Yes,” I answered. “How old are you, Denny?””How old am I now, Mommy?” he asked his mother as she slowly came over from the next aisle.”You’re fifteen-years-old Denny; now be a good boy and let the man pass by.”

I acknowledged her and continued to talk to Denny for several more minutes about summer, bicycles and school. I watched his brown eyes dance with excitement because he was the center of someone’s attention.He then abruptly turned and headed toward the toy section.Denny’s mom had a puzzled look on her face and thanked me for taking the time to talk with her son.She told me that most people wouldn’t even look at him, much less talk to him… I told her that it was my pleasure and then I said something I have no idea where it came from, other than by the prompting of the Holy Spirit.I told her that there are plenty of red, yellow and pink roses in God’s garden, however, ‘Blue Roses’ are very rare and should be appreciated for their beauty and distinctiveness. You see, Denny is a ‘Blue Rose’ and if someone doesn’t stop and smell that rose with their heart and touch that rose with their kindness, then they’ve missed a blessing from God.She was silent for a second, then with a tear in her eye she asked, “Who are you?”Without thinking I said, “Oh, I’m probably just a ‘daffodil or maybe even a dandelion,” but I sure love living in God’s garden.
Be blessed, Be safe, Be Alright.
Help Others and God will take care of you.Life is a mystery to be lived, not a problem to be solved.
God Bless you all, Dewey Sharon and family
Please keep praying for each other and our families.

PS…….I will be speaking at Immanuel Baptist Church in Milan, NM this Sunday, please keep this in your prayers.

Dear KKIM Family,

Go check out www.mykkim.com we have a special effort to aid orphans starting next week with Cross International. Please go check out the info and please pray about taking part in this HUGE effort. You can take part no matter where you are at……Minnesota, New York, California, wherever……..just make sure and indicate you are part of the KKIM family. Thanks so much.

The first person to email me get’s a free copy of the Christmas book, “A Shepherds Prayer”

Reflect on this and spend time in prayer…………

Am I depending on myself to do what only God can do?

Am I depending on God to do what HE expects me to do?

Those are very impactive questions! WOW! think about it and pray about it.

I think that is why a life of prayer is so important…….to seek the Lord’s Will in everything to sort through the challenges we face everyday. Life get’s crazy at times and we may get in a hurry and act impulsive.

Today I post a note from our dear friend Pastor Don Kimbro who is out of the hospital! We should be hearing any day now on the test results of Pastor Vic. Please keep this matter in your prayers.

Hi Dewey,Thank you so much for speaking to our Seniors yesterday. Mark tells me it was a wonderful message and event to honor our older generation. I am back in the land of the living. I was freed yesterday morning, too late to make it to church but thankful for the healing. My diagnosis was gastrointestinal bleeding from a diverticuli. It was painless but a lot of blood loss. Doctor said this type of bleeding usually clears up on its own in 48 hours. Dewey, we prayed (and so many others with us) that Jesus would do to this older man’s body, what He did to the woman with an issue of blood. In less than 18 hours after being hospitalized, the blood flow stopped and has not reoccurred. Praise His wonderful Name! Thank you for your calls and prayers and those of your faithful audience. My church family surrounded me with many, many prayers, as well. Prayers and our LORD get it done, don’t they?. God bless.Pastor Don

Yes, KKIM Family prayer is so AWESOME it is our communication to our FATHER. We can talk to our FATHER all the time!

The Lord told me years ago to pray and care for many. Thank you for being part of it…………here is another thought on prayer from Oswald Chambers……..

Impulse in anyone but a child is dangerous; it is the sign of something unstable and unreliable. Determination means to fix the form of our choice, and God demands that we use this power when we pray. The majority of us waste our time in mere impulses in prayer.

I was talking to Pastor Don about seeking the Lord’s Will and he sent this………

Dewey, keep this scripture in mind as you ponder and pray for God’s will:Trust in the LORD and do good.Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.Delight yourself in the LORD and He will give you the desires of your heart.Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He will do it.He will bring forth your righteousness as the light.And your judgment as the noonday.Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him. — Psm. 37:3-7 (NAS)

Thank you Pastor Don!

Today think the Lord ordered this up for all of us………..

These are such GOODIES!!!! Thanks for passing them along Nik!
Future leaders in the true Faith and Optimist Club…

Blessings

Every once in awhile someone sends me an Email that really hits me. This is> one of those:>> Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked> to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.>> The winner was:>> A four-year-old child, whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman,> who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went> into the old gentleman’s yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.> When his mother asked him what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy> just said, ‘Nothing, I just helped him cry.’>> *********************************************>> Teacher Debbie Moon’s first graders were discussing a picture of a family> where one little boy in the picture had a different hair color than the> other members. One of her students suggested that he was adopted. A little> girl said, ‘I know all about adoption, I was adopted..’>> ‘What does it mean to be adopted?’, asked another child.>> ‘It means’, said the girl, ‘that you grew in your mommy’s heart instead of> her tummy!’>> *********************************************>> On my way home one day, I stopped to watch a Little League base ball game> that was being played in a park near my home. As I sat down behind the bench> on the first-base line, I asked one of the boys what the score was ?>> ‘We’re behind 14 to nothing,’ he answered with a smile.>> ‘Really,’ I said. ‘I have to say you don’t look very discouraged.’>> ‘Discouraged?’, the boy asked with a puzzled look on his face…’Why should> we be discouraged? We haven’t been up to bat yet.’>> *********************************************>> Whenever I’m disappointed with my spot in life, I stop and think about> little Jamie Scott.>> Jamie was trying out for a part in the school play. His mother told me that> he’d set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be chosen.>> On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after> school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement.> ‘Guess what, Mom,’ he shouted, and then said those words that will remain a> lesson to me…..’I’ve been chosen to clap and cheer.>> *********************************************>> An eye witness account from New York City , on a cold day in December, some> years ago: A little boy, about 10-years-old, was standing before a shoe> store on the roadway, barefooted, peering through the window, and shivering> with cold.>> A lady approached the young boy and said, ‘My, but you’re in such deep> thought staring in that window!’>> ‘I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes,’ was the boy’s reply.>> The lady took him by the hand, went into the store, and asked the clerk to> get half a dozen pairs of socks for the boy. She then asked if he could give> her a basin of water and a towel. He quickly brought them to her.>> She took the little fellow to the back part of the store and, removing her> gloves, knelt down, washed his little feet, and dried them with the towel.>> By this time, the clerk had returned with the socks. Placing a pair upon the> boy’s feet, she purchased him a pair of shoes.>> She tied up the remaining pairs of socks and gave them to him.. She patted> him on the head and said, ‘No doubt, you will be more comfortable now’>> As she turned to go, the astonished kid caught her by the hand, and looking> up into her face, with tears in his eyes, asked her,>> ‘Are you God’s wife?’

God Bless you all and please keep praying for each other and our families, Dewey Sharon and family
