Dear Family Of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Thank you all for stopping by for a CUP! Please visit us at www.fggam.org !

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. James 1:5

Talk of spiritual things in your homes just as you would talk about anything else. That makes your Christianity authentic. Chuck Swindoll

This morning, as always I am praying for the United States of America. I am sadden by all this money being spent on this election and really, just a lot of nothing noise. Did you know that there is a Tent Revival going on the White House lawn?

WASHINGTON – As America prepares to select a new president, a group of Christians has been praying on the White House lawn.
They have actually pitched a tent, called David’s Tent, and have been praying 24 hours a day since late September in hopes of turning America back to God.
During a time of fasting and prayer, founder Jason Hershey asked the Lord how he could intercede for America in 2012.
“And I felt like He said, ‘Do what King David did. Get the presence by the palace in the capital city,” Hershey said.
But even Hershey didn’t have faith they’d be within shouting distance of the White House.
“But when we went to get the permit, the Parks Service actually suggested, ‘Have you thought about the White House Ellipse?'” he said.
According to protocol, President Obama would not be unaware of their presence.
“The Parks Service has assured us that this close to the White House they absolutely are required to report to the president everything that happens here,” Hershey said.
Hershey said the goal of the prayer tent is not political.
“In a time of great debate about which way is this country heading. We want to put a big target on Jesus and say, ‘Seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness and all of these things will be added to you as well,'” he said.
Just as King David danced for joy in the Bible, organizers said joyful worship on the White House lawn is the key that will turn the nation around.
“The shouts of joy and victory resound from the tents of the righteous, so we believe this tent is to have a sound emanating from it of joy and victory,” Hershey said.
People from all over the world have joined this effort to worship and pray for America, including a group of young people from Youth With A Mission, based in Hawaii.
“It’s seriously incredible. I’m just so happy to be here,” worshipper Emily Cole said. “My hope is just to see people come back to God.”
“I just really feel like the Lord called me here and He’s like, ‘Hey, you have a heart for me and love to worship me and be joyful.’ And I just felt like He said it’s time,” Gabriel Villahermosa, another worshipper, said.

Hershey said it’s very significant to be this close to the Oval Office.
“I think it’s a prophetic statement from the Lord Himself, speaking to the Church, speaking to America, that He should be at the highest place of every area of our lives,” he said. “I absolutely believe that the presence of the Lord is the strategy. Where He is, everything changes.”
David’s Tent will be set up on the White House lawn through Election Day, Nov. 6
When James Robison spoke at Legacy Church in Albuquerque .a few weeks back he said,” I am tired of politicians saying,”God Bless America! why not, AMERICA BLESS GOD!!!!!!!!!!”
AMEN to that!
I just love the BOLDNESS in our LORD this group has to pitch the tent right there on the lawn of the White House! AMEN! Hallelujah!!!!

Billy Graham Looks Forward to 94th Birthday, The evangelist never thought he would live this long

Nov. 2, 2012. As evangelist Billy Graham prepares to celebrate his 94th birthday on Nov. 7, he has been reflecting on the previous year and preparing for what God has in store for him during his 95th year on the planet.
“I never expected I would live this long, outliving my beloved wife Ruth as well as many friends and loved ones,” Mr. Graham said. “I believe God must still have a purpose for keeping me here, and I look forward to seeing what that might be.”
Mr. Graham continues to be called upon to provide perspective on world events and the spiritual state of our nation, especially heading into a presidential election. He has encouraged all Americans to join him in praying for our country and its leaders during this critical time. He regularly prays for the President, those who are currently in office, and those who are seeking to lead our nation into the future.
This includes presidential candidate Gov. Mitt Romney, who recently visited in the evangelist’s western North Carolina home while on a campaign stop in nearby Asheville. During their 30-minute meeting, which also involved Mr. Graham’s son, Franklin, the men discussed a wide range of topics, including broad issues of faith, the moral decline in our country and the importance of emphasizing biblical values amidst the cultural shift of America. At the close of the meeting, Mr. Graham offered a prayer for the Governor, his family and our nation and committed his ongoing prayers and spiritual support for him and his family.
With the election falling one day before his birthday, Mr. Graham will be watching the results closely, as well as praying for those who are elected. He keeps up with world events and has a great concern for our nation as he’s observed a decline in respect for biblical values.
Currently, the evangelist is working diligently to finalize the manuscript for his 31st book summarizing the Gospel message of God’s love and forgiveness that he has faithfully preached for more than 60 years. Mr. Graham is excited about the book’s release sometime next year and is considering additional writing projects as there is still much on his mind that he would like to share.
Other ministry endeavors include the forthcoming nationwide evangelism campaign, “My Hope,” to be launched by Billy Graham Evangelistic Association in conjunction with Mr. Graham’s 95th birthday in 2013. He fully supports the project and hopes to be able to participate in some way as the date draws closer.
Earlier this year, Mr. Graham authorized Chicken Soup for the Soul to create a special hardcover anthology documenting his life and legacy, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Billy Graham & Me, to be released February 2013. This compilation will contain 101 personal and impactful stories from influential leaders – including the last six presidents – as well as Mr. Graham’s friends and family documenting his influence on their lives and the impact of his worldwide ministry over more than six decades.
As in years past, Mr. Graham plans a quiet birthday celebration at home with his family, and looks forward to spending time with his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. “I love them all and can’t wait to see them again,” he said.

Just love Billy!!!!!

Below is a picture of me and Rick Griffin, my guest this Saturday night on KAZQ CH 32, Dewey and Friends, a Presentation of FGGAM. Rick shares his testimony of his son becoming addicted to heroin and how God and family turned the situation around. Heroin has become a severe problem here in New Mexico. Rick’s son had two high school friends die from heroin.

Please also visit us at www.fggam.org for more commentary on our podcasts and take a listen to our TV programs.

The following Saturday right before Veterans Day, 88 WWII Vet and retired APD Police Officer Chuck Martin is my guest. Chuck will share about when he was captured by German Soldiers, but also share his poetry with us, man, God has gifted this man with the ability to write such beautiful poetry.

I interviewed Chuck a few times on radio, this is my first with him on TV.

Dewey and Friends is gifted by friends of FGGAM! PRAISE GOD!

Let us pray over this!

Pam writes……….

I saw a woman standing in a field with her crumpled house from Hurricane Sandy… Someone told me today, that it wasn’t so bad. Hmmm…
And yet, one lady said they are still finding bodies. Another wept at standing in knee deep water. A man sat with his head in his hands. Another lady held her 89 year old mother as she drowned in their home.
Then I saw on TV this 62 year old lady who wanted to go home, but HAD no home. She stood in splintered debris in a field a mile from where her home once sat. The house had landed there…she held her mother’s picture.
I cried…I so wanted to go get her and put her in my bed, and wrap her in my warm blankets. I pray for the assistance to come … for hearts to heal

Let us be in constant prayer!

Pastor Derek of Legacy Church has this to share………

1) I will vote for the most pro-Israel candidate, because God promises to bless those who bless Israel & curses those who don’t (Gen. 12:3).
2) I will vote for the most pro-life candidate, because God hates the shedding of innocent blood (Prov. 6:17).
3) I will vote for the most Pro-marriage candidate because God is for marriage as defined in (Gen. 2:24).

4) I will vote for the most pro-debt reduction candidate, because the borrower is servant to the lender. (Prov. 22:7).
5) I will vote for the candidate that most closely believes that government’s purpose is to reward the good and punish the evil (Rom. 13).

6) I will vote for the most pro-work candidate because God says if a man does not work he does not eat (2 Thess. 3:10).

7) I will vote as closely as I can to God’s Word because God’s Word is inspired. (2 Tim. 3:16)

This morning I introduce to you a new friend of FGGAM, Leslie Montgomery, she has been a Counselor for hurting people for over 20 years. She has written books, lives in Lake Norden, South Dakota. She loves Jesus Christ and loves to share Him with hurting people.

This is from Leslie

“But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another,
and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.”
1 John 1:7

Relationships are vital to our walk in Christ. It is through fellowship with other people that our biblical convictions and God’s commands are either evident or absent. It is with others that we literally “practice” living out the life of Christ and shed the layers of the “old man” that keep us in bondage.
Every once in a while I’ll hear a believer say something like, “I don’t need to go to church. I worship God in my own way at my own home.” These individuals are missing out on the opportunity to challenge others in their walk with God and vice versa. The Bible calls this process “Iron sharpening iron” (Proverbs 27:17). If you dig a little deeper in your conversation with these individuals they are usually believers who are hurt, defensive, and shallow in their growth and maturity. Additionally, they are often beat up by the world and the enemy – that’s because lone sheep get eaten!
We can’t always control who we have a relationship with, but the one choice we do have concerns how we respond to others. Our goal is to represent Christ Jesus in all we say and do. God knows we can’t be perfect and that’s the reason Jesus died for our sins, but we still strive for excellence. A believer I’ve been counseling recently told me he was being held captive to a specific sin in his life and that he couldn’t find freedom. As a result of his sin, he is tearing apart the lives of many people. His mentality of being held captive is a lie we often convince ourselves. We are not victims of sin – we are conquerors of it in Christ Jesus.
Ultimately, when the rubber hits the road in our fellowship with others we are responsible for two things; taking care of ourselves while representing Jesus to others. We can do this with integrity in Christ by doing what I call a “moral inventory” in relation to how we have behaved in front of others. Is there someone you need to confess a sin to and ask forgiveness from but fear and pride are keeping you hostage? Is there someone in your life you need to “detach” from who is leading you astray in your daily walk? Is there someone you need to confront in love but your dislike of confrontation is holding you back? Is there someone you’ve been avoiding because of a disagreement from long ago? Is there someone you need to reach out to but you fear rejection? If the answer is “yes” to any of these questions, acting on them could be one of things holding you back from maturity in Christ as well as growth and intimacy with Him.
If you are unsure of the answers to these questions, pray about them. God is always faithful to reveal to me where I lack integrity, character, or am dwelling in sin in my relationships. Do you know that statistics show that the number one reason unsaved people don’t attend church is because of hypocrisy? They don’t see Jesus in the lives of Christians around them. Remember, whether it’s a believer or a non-believer you’re fellowshipping with, you may be the only representation of Jesus in the flesh to them that day.

Now here is another post from Leslie………

Today’s transformational devotion is Healing Father Wounds. If you grew up with an unhealthy or abusive dad, today’s post is a must to read!

“A father to the fatherless…is God in his holy dwelling.”
Psalm 68:5

I’ve been counseling people for twenty years; seventeen of them as a believer, and without a doubt, the number one issue I’ve had to address with my clients is FATHER WOUNDS. As a resul

t, many men and women have struggled with their identity, their esteem, and most importantly, their relationship with (or lack thereof) with God.

To understand how we come to view God, let me explain something to you. As we grow up we develop core beliefs about God, ourselves and others in two ways; one is called prevailing circumstances, which have to do with the day-to-day relationships we had with people like our family, friends, teachers, church, etc.; the other one is called traumatic circumstances, which include, but are not limited to; neglect, abuse, trauma, divorce of our parents, death of a friend or loved one, etc. Once again, the combination of these two circumstances make up what we really believe about ourselves, God and others.

If you were raised in a home where your father was abusive, neglectful, absent due to divorce, sickness, death or excessive work, or a dad who was present physically, but had an addiction that made him emotionally and mentally unavailable, or other similar circumstances, then you grew up with a dad-size wound in your heart that only a healthy, loving, physically and emotionally present dad could fill. As a result, not including any other issues within your family, you likely have fear of being rejected or abandoned. Because children learn what they’re taught by example and not what they’re told, like your biological father, you probably struggle with intimacy, esteem, identity, and more. But how does all of this fit into your relationship with God?

When we pray to God, we are actually thinking, “Dear heavenly version of my earthly father.” We naturally transfer our experience with our biological father into our relationship with our heavenly father. As a result, we see Him through the same lens that we see our biological father. So, God must be distant and unapproachable. “He must not love me,” or, “I’m not worthy of His love” and “He will abandon and reject me just like my dad did.” If your father was an angry, physically abusive man and someone who expected perfection from you, you will likely see God as a taskmaster, ready to punish you for even the slightest offense, and you’re sure, even though you don’t know why, that He’s angry with you all of the time. Issues like the ones I mentioned above make it pretty hard to develop and retain an intimate relationship with God where grace flows like a river, and love is unconditional. The truth be told, you believe other people can have relationships with God like that, but you’re simply not worthy of it.

We all have legitimate needs that we need a father to fill. For one, we need to know we are loved unconditionally by him. We need to be heard and we need to know it is okay to exist; that we matter. Children need to be told they are special, unique and irreplaceable, and that there is a purpose and plan for their lives that only they can fill. Without those affirmations the child grows up through life on auto pilot and eventually lands in a location called Emotionally Unknown; they don’t know who they are; how to relate to others; how to find and retain intimacy; and how to express their needs. So how can someone with such a wound begin healing?

Depending on the severity of the wound, you may need to begin your healing with a professional, Christian therapist. At the same time, I would encourage them and others to begin a good study and workbook that specifically addresses father wounds. Another avenue may be to find another Christian who can mentor you through a workbook on father wounds or find a conference who offers references and teaching on the topic. Ultimately, when it comes to God, no matter which route you go, you will at some point come face-to-face with faith (belief + trust) and have to crawl up into His arms and onto His lap and let Him pour the healing Balm of Gilead over the wounds in your heart. No matter how much healing you get from counseling, mentorship, or a workbook, only God can do a complete healing.

Sometimes the healing of a wound hurts more than what caused the wound in the first place. Healing a father wound can feel like that, but you must continually remind yourself that God is not your earthly father, that He will never leave you or forsake you, that you are the apple of His eye, fearfully and wonderfully made, and sanctified, that is, set apart for a special purpose. His love for you surpasses all understanding for every believer, but especially for those with father wounds.

I would also encourage you to make time daily just for you and your heavenly father to talk to Him just like you’d talk to me. Begin by just talking about day-to-day things until you feel comfortable in sharing the pain in your heart. Learning to pray to what you feel in an unapproachable God takes time and effort, but out of all the treatments available, I guarantee it’s the most successful! If you need help in this area, contact me. It will be my pleasure to walk you through how to pray through a wound. I had severe father wounds growing up, however, today, spending time talking to my heavenly father is my favorite thing in the world to do. It will be that way for you too someday.

In closing, I just want to say that your heavenly father loves you in a way your earthly father could never do. And because He loves you He is patient, kind, does not envy, does not boast, is not proud, is not rude, self-seeking, is not easily angered, keeps no record of wrongs, does not delight in evil and rejoices with the truth. He always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. Thankfully He is the same today as He was yesterday, and yesterday, the same as every day before that. In the twenty years that I’ve known Him, he has never let me down. He’ll be the same for you, I promise – I give you my word.

God Bless you Leslie!!!!

Thank you for giving so we can give to the children at Christmas. Some of our sponsored children have never received a gift of any kind for Christmas. Your gifts bring smiles, laughter and sometimes tears of joy. See below for how to be a part. November 2, 2012. Finding the right companion is vitally important. In creation, God admitted that man was incomplete and needed a companion to be whole and blessed. It truly is not good for man to be alone. Making a lifetime commitment to love and care for a companion is a very serious consideration. 55+ years ago, I found mine. After all these years, she is still as beautiful and full of life as she ever was. My commitment, when joined by hers, has produced two children, four grandchildren and four great grandchildren to date. All of us have the blessings of Abraham our faith father and are assured those blessings will continue. In good times and bad times, God is at work to bless and multiply.

I will make a helper who is just right for him.” Ras Robinson Subscribe to “What the Lord Is Saying Today” November 2, 2012. You didn’t fall apart even though you felt like it. You didn’t overreact and speak out of your emotions and I am pleased because you held your tongue. You see now it was not as you thought it was. And you too are pleased you didn’t overreact. When I said wait on Me, you waited. Aren’t you glad you listened and obeyed? Learn from this and don’t react so quickly when your emotions and attitude feels cranky. Ask Me what to do. Resist the thoughts the devil bombards you with. Hide yourself in Me like you did this time and life will be much more peaceful. Precious, I am teaching you.

You’ve allowed your mind to become entangled in Satan’s snares and traps of hostility. Stop allowing Satan’s ploys of division and separation among you. He’s dishonest toward you because he was cast out of heaven for not getting his way. Similarly, you’ve allowed your difference of opinion and belief structure with others, to interrupt and steal My infinite blessings toward you. You’ve selected who and what you’ll include and exclude. Splitting up and strife proves you’re self-seeking, not knowing who and whose you are. You’ve observed discriminating behavior in others and responded antagonistically. Move beyond your immature and childish playground mentality. Love Me, and love your neighbor as yourself. Philippians 4:8-9 (MSG) “Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious-the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse.

PRAY WITH ME, PLEASE… Very serious…

My producer’s wife, Melissa Bowen, has been hospitalized. She is a recovering breast cancer patient who has had numerous surgeries in the past 18 months, including dbl mastectomy and hysterectomy. She is now in hospital with heart condition and every test has come back abnormal. They will perform an angiogram tomorrow at 11am.

But please read on….

Jim is unable to be there with his wife because today is the final day of home nursing care (medicare dropped all nursing benefits) for their daughter Miranda who suffered a traumatic brain injury 15 years ago and has required 24 hour nursing care since. She seizures many times a day and is fed by tube. Jim needs to remain by her side.

But that’s not all….

Jim, himself, is unable to lift his girl because he is scheduled to have back surgery himself! But now, he has to care for his daughter AND extend care for his wife, who is just recently recovering from cancer surgeries and treatment and will have another breast surgery soon.

There is seemingly no help in store because the nursing benefits for Miranda have been dropped… but they are a family who prays and prays and they believe!

I will be with Melissa at the hospital tomorrow, but this family needs serious prayer. Will you pray? They are in GREAT need for God’s help. I have never known a family to suffer for such a sustained period of SERIOUS, traumatic health problems with EVERY member of this family.

My heart breaks. ECM – Please, let’s mobilize.

Hello. My Name is
Shari… and I’m a God Addict

I Corinthians 16:15-16 ~ I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth.
Hello. My name is Shari, and I’m a God addict.
Over my almost 50 years I’ve been addicted to a variety of things. Most of them not healthy, but following my salvation in 1996, I became addicted to the things of God. I literally became addicted to Him. I couldn’t get enough of Him, His people, His things, His Word. If it was of Him, I wanted it. I don’t want to sound pious and self righteous, because that is the furthest thing from the truth. I’m not saying that I am “soooooooo right” with God. Believe me when I say I have issues. But I’m still an addict, so I understood Paul when he said the house of Stephanas had addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints. What an awesome thing to say about someone!
Addiction: [uh–dik-shuhn] (noun) to abandon oneself to something compulsively or obsessively.
Abandoned Faith
Abandoned faith is not walking out on faith, but walking out on the world to faith; abandoning those things in life that we clung onto in hopes of it making us happy and complete, only to realize that without God, it was nothing. There was no hope in the things that I clung to. I worked to please people, only to discover you could never please them enough. I longed for status, only to realize that for every plateau I achieved still left me longing for something. It was never enough, regardless of what it was. Until I found Jesus. And when I worked for Him, it was enough. He was well pleased. And it became not about status, but about John 3:30 “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
Compulsive Faith
That inability to control yourself! It’s not a good thing generally to lose control of oneself, unless it’s in the spiritual realm. Then by letting loose of your control, you’ve allowed God to have control, and life is in much safer hands. I recently attended a service at another church where just that happened. If God wanted them to sing, they sung, if He wanted them to speak, they spoke; some just wept. When the preacher preached it was straight from the heart. I’ve been a few of those services, but I’m not sure I’ve ever been in one quite as intense. A sixteen year girl stood and spoke without reservation that we needed to do something with what we were feeling, she pleaded “Please don’t let it stop here.” That’s Godly compulsiveness!
Obsessive Faith
Fanatical! ~~ My friend Doyle Ballengee used to say, “Go ahead and call me a fanatic, if you get a bad diagnosis, you’ll be lookin’ for a fanatic!”
Obsessive Christians talk about Jesus all the time. They drive the backslider crazy, and the heathen into a rage. I’ve witnessed both, likely caused both. Yes I’m a tad fanatical… okay maybe more than a tad. Because I know what I have a hold of….
Unconditional love. Peace. A 24/7 friend.
Hello, my name is Shari, and I’m addicted to Jesus!

Dear Family of Jesus,

We have a Praise report on Carmen and also prayer needs this morning for Pastor Larry Moss who was in an ATV accident and is in ICU and Pastor Don Kimbro’s daughter Karen. Just got an update on Larry Moss it is posted below.

Daughter Gretchen left for Portales this morning, we had good talks while she was here. Gretchen has such good insight into life. We were talking and praying for soften hearts in the world………let us all soften our hearts this day and all days in the ways of Jesus Christ.

In lower Manhattan a failed back up generator forced NY University’s Langone Medical Center to relocate 20 babies from neonatal intensive care. Dozens of Ambulances lined up in the rainy night and the babies were gingerly moved out, some attached to battery powered respirators as gusts of wind blew their blankets……Angels came to rescue the babies……..just one of the stores emerging from the storm………Let us continue to pray for all.

Time is short for all us of…………The Lord led me to these words this morning in James 4:14-17

Yet you do not know (the least thing) about what may happen tomorrow. What is the nature of your life? You are (really) but a wisp of vapor (a puff of smoke, a mist) that is visible for a little while and then disappears (into thin air)
You ought instead to say, if the Lord is willing, we shall live and we shall do this or that (thing).
But as it is, you boast (falsely) in your presumption and your self- conceit. All such boasting is wrong.
So any person who knows what is right to do but does not do it, to him it is sin.

AMEN!

PRAISE GOD Carmen is home!

TO ALL MY WONDERFUL FRIENDS: I AM NOW HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL, FEELING TIRED AND STILL SOMEWHAT WEAK. I AM JUST TRYING TO GET BACK ON THE COMPUTER FOR A SHORT TIME. JUST A SHORT NOTE TO UPDATE YOU.

Pastor Don and Dorothy

Pastor Don we are praying for Karen, yes we are, praying for healing! AMEN!

Don also let me know that Pastor Larry Moss was in an accident on Monday. I talked to Larry’s wife Lou early this morning 5am NM Time, Larry and Lou are now living in Kentucky and Larry was injured in this accident and Lou said that he was lying on the road with cars passing him and Larry thought his time had come to go home! He was taken to the hospital and is still in ICU. He hit his head very hard and has broken bones around one eye. I did not get to talk to Lou very long as the Doctor was coming into the room and she needed to talk to him. Please keep Larry in your prayers, we love this man so much!

Here is an update on Larry Moss, I just talked to him at 6:15am, he was testing driving an ATV and was turning around and going back to the shop and his foot hit the accelerator and brake at the same time and the ATV spun onto the road and was hit by a car and Larry was thrown into the air and landed face first on the road. Larry has 25 staples in his face. No skull fracture. As I said he is in ICU and has broken bones around one eye, no vision problems. Let us pray for this Giant Man of God!

This was the first time I got to talk to Larry since I left KKIM and formed FGGAM, Larry is my Spiritual Father and he had told me 4 months ago the Lord told him that He wanted me out of KKIM and not concerning myself with the day to day duties of a radio station manager. Larry said the Lord wants you out Preaching the Word! Larry choked up when I told him that I am out Preaching the Word and doing what the Lord had told you for me to do! Larry said he was very happy for me but very happy for the Lord! AMEN!

Larry Moss is one of those guys that comes into your life and changes it through our Lord! AMEN!

Let us all gather and pray at this time for healing for Karen and Larry.

LifeWay Christian Resources (owner of Glorieta Conference Center) has reviewed the report from the National Association of Evangelicals, and decided not to go forward with the sale of Glorieta Conference Center to Olivet University. The conference center is located in Northern New Mexico, outside of Santa Fe. Please pray this 2,100 acre retreat will continue to be a beacon of light to the people of New Mexico.

Here is a note from pastor Leonard on yesterdays CUP…….Word’s of Godly Wisdom pour out of Leonard’s mouth………He really states the purpose of yesterday’s CUP……Let the Body of Christ Minister to each other! My purpose each day is to share my testimony, my letter to you each day……

Loved the Cup. especially the testimony of the car repairs. Great faith building for all of us. as I told you and others have told me, “Where God guides He provides”. Our needs becomes someone else’s ministry. It happened all through Paul’s ministries. When he had a need God provided other partners in the gospel to meet his needs. Love this verse in the Cup:

Psalm 34:7

The Angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him(who revere and worship Him with awe) and each of them He delivers.

Also, Dewey, in my daily Bible reading yesterday, this verse popped up at me and reminded me of you but should be for all of us who proclaim the good news of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I Kings 22:14: “But Micaiah said, ‘As the Lord lives, what the Lord says to me, that will I speak”.

That is our commission. Be in prayer! Be in the Word of God! AND what the Lord says to us, that will we speak.

praying for you, Sharon, FGGAM!!!!

luv ya

Here is a devotional that Darlene Fick Quiring wanted to share with us……..

October 30, 2012 When You Feel Like You’re Not Enough By Renee Swope

“When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'” (John 8:12 NIV)
I had that awful yucky feeling of not being enough … not smart enough or good enough. For weeks I felt inadequate and incompetent about everything–from the way I parented to the way I served God in ministry to the way I organized my time and my life.
I had begged God to take away my feelings of insecurity. Though He didn’t answer the way I hoped, He showed me what I needed to see in the most unexpected way.
One afternoon, I was putting on make-up in my bathroom when I noticed a huge nine-foot shadow on the wall behind me. And as I stood there looking at the humongous shadow, it dawned on me: all of my insecurities were creating a huge shadow over my soul–a shadow of doubt.
That day in my bathroom, I came to two important realizations. First, I could only see the shadow when I turned away from the light. And second, I was creating the shadow by blocking the light from the wall.
Shadows are created all around us when something blocks light, and so it is with the shadow of doubt.
When we focus our thoughts on ourselves and how inadequate we feel, or what others think about us and how we’re performing, we cast a shadow of doubt in our minds by blocking the light of God’s Truth in our hearts.
But we were not designed to block the light. We were created to live in the Light by focusing on what God thinks about us instead of what we think about ourselves.
Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12b NIV) When we follow Jesus closely and completely in our thoughts, turning away from doubts and lies, we can find lasting security and confidence in Him.
That afternoon, I realized my self-doubt wasn’t going to just go away. I had to purposefully shift my focus from my feelings of inadequacy to God’s promises of His all-sufficiency and grace in my life.
I had to choose to focus on truth {the Light} so I could exchange my feelings of low self-confidence with lasting “God-fidence.”
Feeling paralyzed and stuck in a place of insecurity is not where God intends for us to live. When Jesus spoke to the people in John 8:12, He called them out of darkness.
Now He’s calling you – to step of out of the shadows of doubt so that you can become the God-fident women He created you to be. A woman whose assurance and soul-security is found in what He says and thinks about her.
And, the next time you feel your heart dwelling in the shadow of self-doubt, ask God to replace your lack of self-confidence with lasting soul-confidence as you turn towards the Light and focus your thoughts on His truths:
When you feel inadequate, God says: You are CHOSEN. “‘You are my witnesses,’ declares the Lord, ‘and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he.'” (Isa. 43:10a NIV)
When you feel unstable, God says: You are ABLE. “The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights.” (Hab. 3:19 NIV)
When you feel unworthy, God says: You are PRECIOUS and LOVED.“… you are precious and honored in my sight, and … I love you.” (Isa. 43:4a NIV)
Dear Lord, You say I am a chosen woman, a royal priest, a holy daughter, a woman belonging to You. Help me believe that and live beyond the shadows of my doubts as I follow and focus on the Light of Your truth today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Some pastors who care for the sponsored children told us of them going to school with empty stomachs and not being able to do well. With your help we are doing something about it. You can be part of the solution. See below. October 31, 2012. You have a choice. You can be part of the fellowship of the blessed or you can choose to be in the gathering of the poor. It is frightening to learn of once blessed families who are now unemployed and being evicted from their beautiful well deserved homes. More and more people in your nation are becoming poor. Some think of themselves as bottom feeders, living on the least means to survive. You know it is wrong to think only of the negative and the reality of lack. Your mind has been chained to the demonic of failure and living on barely get-along street. Choose to believe and remember your eternal promise from God to be blessed and to bless other families and nations. Be who you really are, the blessed and the blessing of a loving God. Genesis 12:2-3 (NLT) “I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you.” Acts 3:25 (NLT) “You are the children of those prophets, and you are included in the covenant God promised to your ancestors. For God said to Abraham, ‘Through your descendants all the families on earth will be blessed.'” Ras Robinson Subscribe to “What the Lord Is Saying Today” October 31, 2012. Many needs are beginning to converge at the same time and it seems overwhelming. It won’t actually be overwhelming, but for a time it will feel like it. Don’t be overtaken by your feelings; be overtaken by Me. I will guide you through this maze one step at a time. Neither look to the right or the left, and don’t get bogged down by feelings of things cascading. The last in the list of fruit of My Holy Spirit is self-control. Record all that is happening in order to get all the needs from tumbling in your mind. This will sort it out and you will feel in control because I will be directing each step you take. Galatians 5:22-23 (NLT) “But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!” Bev Robinson Scroll down to see “Photo of the Day” from our ministry to children in the Philippines. October 31, 2012. I AM resisting your proud and haughty spirit. A big dose of humility will work very nicely for you. Put away your foolish pride and let Me chaperon you. Arrogance has also entered the equation and others are keeping their distance from you because of it. You cannot even begin to see how mired you are in mud. Denial has been your worst enemy. I have heard your cries of distress. Let Me help you. I am the Helper. Let Me bring aid and support in the way I choose. It has taken awhile for you to get into this fix. Give Me your attitude and allow Me and others to help you. Hebrews 4:16-18 (MSG) “Now that we know what we have-Jesus, this great High Priest with ready access to God-let’s not let it slip through our fingers. We don’t have a priest who is out of touch with our reality. He’s been through weakness and testing, experienced it all-all but the sin. So let’s walk right up to him and get what he is so ready to give. Take the mercy, accept the help.
