PASTOR LAZARUS WROTE:
Dear Brother,Pastor Hello Pastor Lazarus, Thanks for taking time to WRAP with us. I will pray for you; but more importantly, I want you to enter into your prayer closet each day with the following Scripture in mind.
If you will do this, I'm satisfied that the Lord Jesus will not only teach you to pray; but that he will also meet your most pertinent need. He always does this for me and I am sure that He will honor His Word for you as well. However, from your list of "needs," a word of caution is in order. Please do not be impressed by the churches and the religious organizations in the USA–unless you first consider the following Scripture.
So, Jesus said that we are known by our fruit; and the fruit of most churches and organizations in America is not the winning of souls. Furthermore, if the main goal of a religious organization is not the salvation of souls; then a wise believer would do well to avoid such less he or she get caught up in their fruitless programs and have to go empty handed when it is for them to stand before their Savior. Remember, the goal and the fruit of any beginning ministry should be souls converted to the Kingdom of God. Not only is this God's will, but it is the way that His Church is built and the way that godly churches are built. If you will look at your lists of "needs," you will see that any of them that are genuine would be met as you "walk in the Spirit" and allow the Lord to use you in the saving of the lost. As souls are saved and they in turn bring their friends and loved ones to the Lord, the congregation grows and you will have others who love the Lord that will help you in your endeavors. As a consequence, a list of needs may grow, but the Lord will then meet your needs as He has promised. Brethren, do not be deceived. You do not need a list of "things" to do the Lord's work. In fact, everyone that answers the call of the Lord has all that they need for they have a mouth and a heart full of the Love of God. If they then learn to walk in the Spirit and trust God–He will add the increase. As per the words of one of B'Ann's songs. "Go with God, and He will go with you!" Don |

TO OUR CYBER-VISITORS:
Our good friend and Christian brother, Marvin Lacy, forwarded an E-mail to us that we would like to share. (Marvin's web site is one of our favorites. You can find it on our site by clicking on THE SINGING MAILMAN button.)
THE STUMP DON WROTE: I would like to add some additional truths that helps me in my walk of faith.
Think about it! We are in Him and He is in us; and our faith is so important to Him that He did not leave us on our own. Faith is a gift from Him and a fruit of His precious abiding Holy Spirit! Saints, without faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6); but He has made it so easy that "all" may please Him. Isn't God good? |
