Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”
John 18:11
March 25, 2013. You received a new heart and a new spirit. Moreover, I put my Spirit in you, enabling you to do what I command. You are not who you once were. All things have changed. I have given you a fresh start with no history for you since the exchange of hearts took place and you received the Spirit. There is nothing from your past to hold you back. Your future is as bright as the noon day sun. I have plans to bless you and not to hinder you in any way.
Ezekiel 36:26-27 (MSG) “I’ll give you a new heart, put a new spirit in you. I’ll remove the stone heart from your body and replace it with a heart that’s God-willed, not self-willed.” Ras Robinson
Thank you all for your prayers for Pastor Steve Freeman of Crestview Baptist Church. I talked to him yesterday and he is to undergo more tests today to see what the problem is, but we are believing Steve is healed! AMEN! As of last night the Doctor’s did not think it was a heart attack.
Please also pray for Robin White as her health is not improving. We are believing in healing also for Robin.
PRAISE REPORTS!
Paul Dokken and Kay Branch let me know they have been so blessed by our Lord. I told them keep walking in the favor of God! AMEN!
Let us all be Obedient to our Lord!
Let us all examine ourselves in preparation for Easter/Resurrection Sunday!
The greatest commandment is to love God by keeping His commandments. Matthew 22:36-38 says, “‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.'”
You ask, “How important is obedience to God?” In the gospel of John, obedience to God is underscored time and time again. John 14:15 says, “If you love me, you will obey what I command.”
We also have this PRAISE NOTE from Rick!
A week or so ago I had to take my wonderful and precious wife Sandy who suffers from extreme fybromyalga and copd to the emergency room in the middle of the night as she wasn't getting enough oxygen and was actually turning blue by the time I got her there... They diagnosed her with a copd 'flair up' and treated her in addition to giving her some antibiotics and steroids to come home with... Several days later her condition worsened again and it was discovered she at this point had developed pneumonia, (which is extremely dangerous for her in her condition), and again was returned home with more steroids and antibiotics... At this point I asked my 'THREE' pastors Marty Cooper, Paulette Cooper and Dewey Moede; (Yep - I got three of 'em!!!); for a special prayer and Pastor Dewey also asked for your prayers through his daily blog "The Cup"... YOUR PRAYERS HAVE WORKED MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND I THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS... While she is still recovering, in less than two days the LORD has seen to it that she is now much more comfortable, sleeping well, breathing well and generally doing much much better !!! Her amazing rate of recovery is unbelievable and if it continues at this rate she'll probably be back in our church this Sunday and back to work sometime next week... THANK YOU ALL !!! rick stambaugh
PRAISE GOD! PRAISE GOD!
I have to say one of my favorite verses in the Bible is John 18:38 where Jesus says, "you are right in saying I am a King. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth
listens to me.
Ravi Zachavias says,"There is a real need for a deeper understanding of who Jesus is and why he is the “light of men.”
AMEN!
That is what FGGAM is all about, bringing the light of Jesus Christ to one person at a time!
Here is something Sharon and I are going through right now…..we are experiencing this first hand………
