Dear KKIM Family,
May the Peace and the Strength of the Lord be with You and Yours.
As for me, I will certainly not sin against the Lord by ending my prayers for you. And I will continue to teach you what is good and right. I Samuel 12:23
Ceasing from prayer is sin against God.
Pray yourself through bad times.
Let us pray…………
Dear Dewey.
This afternoon I got a call from my friend Bob Wright who lives in Eunice, NM. He told me of a tragic situation wit a neighbor’s child who was attacked by a pit bull. The little girl’s name is Nakita. I would be most grateful if you would ask your audience to pray for this child. Thank you, John Russell
Let us all pray for Nakita.
There are many hurting and dying people everyday……..When a celebrity like Michael Jackson passes away the whole secular media turns that way. The little Nikita’s can be forgotten about.
What consumes the media about the deaths of people like Michael Jackson? CNN was bragging last night on the Larry King show about showing a picture of Jackson being treated after his heart attack in a picture from Entertainment Tonight. How ugly is that kind of thing…..so hurtful to the family!
I was so sad last night with the Michael Jackson story………a very talented man who had so much turmoil inside of him. Let us pray for his soul and for his family. Can you even imagine the turmoil that Jackson had churning inside him?
Also for the family of Farrah Fawcett,who passed away at 62 of cancer.
Not enough who make it to Hollywood come out with a good life in the Lord.
Fame and fortune seem to corrupt most. Let us pray on that.
I have been commenting on how many here in the Duke City have gone nuts over Manny Ramirez coming here to re-hab before he joins the Dodgers and how nuts it is that many praise him…..look to him as a hero……..Well this “Idol” certainly took another step back wards last night.The Feds are now involved and Manny ran from his fans and media……..
Manny Ramirez went silent. Then, Manny left the building.
The Los Angeles Dodgers slugger made himself scarce in the clubhouse and didn’t talk to reporters as he came out for warmups for his final game with the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes on Thursday night.
With the start of the contest delayed by rain, Ramirez left through a back door of the clubhouse, stepped into a sedan and drove away.
There was no immediate word from team officials on why Ramirez departed, but heavy rains hit the ballpark and the first pitch was delayed more than 45 minutes.
Ramirez kept a low profile after it was disclosed that Major League Baseball is cooperating with a federal investigation into where he got the performance-enhancing drug that resulted in his 50-game suspension.
Yes, be careful who you worship and your children look to as hero’s! There is only of to worship and too look up to…………..Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Last night on New Mexico News and Views our news maker of the day was State Rep. Nora Espinoza. She gave us the latest on the New Mexico Dept. of Education’s attempt to change the law regarding the reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance. State Rep. Espinoza says the possible change is under the radar and hardly any publicity has been let out about this change that would not require a student to recite of the Pledge of Allegiance. Nora said most state lawmakers were unaware of the possible change. She wanted to encourage KKIM listeners to call the office of Secretary of Education Dr. Veronica Garcia at 505-827-6661 to voice your concern over changing the law. Dr. Garcia will be making this decision soon. Nora said, “There is no reason to make this change. Many here in New Mexico have given much so that we can say the Pledge of Allegiance.” The State Dept. of Education says they want to bring New Mexico up to federal code. An Albuquerque School teacher, Claudia called the program last night and said this is the first time she had heard of this possible change and called the Education Dept. right away when we announced it. Claudia also encourage others to call. Another attempt by a few to change the fabric of American life.
The way the Federal Government is going…….I don’t know if I want to be brought up to Federal Code!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the Blessings the Lord has given me is companionship of others……..to help me…to help me not do stupid things…….Chuck Swindoll writes……….
We are not designed to be loners. In real life, and especially in ministry, there’s no place for Rambo’s or 007 Agents or spiritual superstars. Not only is that unhealthy; it’s simply not God’s way. When He calls a man or women to accomplish something great, He then brings alongside other individuals who serve and assist the more public figure.
Read slowly through this fine paraphrase of Ecclesiastes chapter 4, of the New Living Translation. Take in the images and ponder the wisdom as you consider the meaning of these penetrating words:
Two people can accomplish more than twice as much as one; they get a better return for their labor.
If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But people who are alone when they fall are in real trouble.
And on a cold night, two under the same blanket can give warmth from each other. But how can one be warm alone?
A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
Esslesiastes 4:9-12
Stanford University Psychologist Philip Zimbardo says, “I know of no more potent killer than isolationism. There is no more destructive influence on physical and mental health than the isolation of you from me and us from them. It has been shown to be a central agent in the etiology of depression, paranoia, murder, schizophrenia, rape, suicide, and a mass and wide variety of disease states.”
Let us reach out to those alone.
Here is a beautiful story passed along by Frank…………
The Future Wife
One night in a church service a young woman felt the tug of God at her heart. She responded
to God’s call and accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior. The young woman had a very rough past, involving alcohol,drugs, and prostitution. But, the change in her was evident. As time went on she became a faithful member of the church. She eventually became involved in the ministry, teaching young children.
It was not very long until this faithful young woman had caught the eye and heart of the
pastor’s son. The relationship grew and they began to make wedding plans. This is when the problems began. About one half of the church did not think that a woman with a past
such as hers was suitable for a pastor’s son. The church began to argue and fight about the matter. So they decided to have a meeting. As the people made their arguments and tensions increased, the meeting was getting completely out of hand.
The young woman became very upset about all the things being brought up about her past.
As she began to cry the pastor’s son stood to speak. He could not bear the pain it was
causing his wife to be. He began to speak and his statement was this: ‘My fiancee’s past is
not what is on trial here. What you are questioning is the ability of the blood of Jesus to wash away sin. Today you have put the blood of Jesus on trial. So, does it wash away sin or not?’
The whole church began to weep as they realized that they had been slandering the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Too often, even as Christians, we bring up the past and use it as a weapon against our
brothers and sisters. Forgiveness is a very foundational part of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. If the blood of Jesus does not cleanse the other person completely then it cannot cleanse us completely. If that is the case, then we are all in a lot of trouble.
What can wash away my sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus ! End of case!!!!
‘Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee
he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved..’
Psalm 55:23
Prayer is your Key
Faith is your Road Map
Let us pray………
Lord, We come to you this brand new day and hold up little Nakita to You Father, We ask You to heal her to give her the strength and peace that You can only give…….we ask the same for her family. Lord we pray for the soul of Michael Jackson…….We pray for his family…….We pray for the family of Farrah Fawcett. We pray for all those who are dying and hurting today. We also pray for all those alone today Father, we pray that we will have the boldness to reach out to them. We pray for Manny Ramirez that he will come to know you. We pray that the State of New Mexico will not take out the Pledge of Allegiance from our schools and continue to take YOU out of our schools. Lord, we are grateful for Your presence. We are grateful that You Lord are God Almighty. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!
In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
