April 13, 2010 Jesus and His Disciples 2

"Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you."

Good Schools Day Tuesday Morning, my dear brothers and sisters, what a great start to a day here at the Southern Location of the North Pole. Yes, it is ALWAYS a great day when you can rise up and go to work for God. So I know you have risen up today if you are reading this. My question is, are you working for God? Remember today to pray for our schools, all of them, and the ones that I think need the most prayers are our schools of higher education. Also Vicki has had a few setbacks, so please keep her in your prayers. Also pray for "Tim" for health healing (no last name given, and it is not Courier singer Tim Beitzel); however, he would welcome your prayers also as he is working on schooling to become an Assembly of God pastor. Also pray for the Saylor Family and pray for Brotherhood Native American Outreach...

Jesus and His Disciples 2: John 20:21 - Again Jesus said, "Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." (NIV) NIV=New International Version of the Bible!

Hebrews 13:8 - Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." (NIV)

Ok, it is time I straighten out something, for I did find one thing that would be different about Jesus... The Bible tells us He is the same today as He was yesterday, but He is a tad different from when He started His ministry and when He was risen from the dead... He has nail scars in His hands and feet and He has a scar and hole in His side. The scripture tells us that Jesus never changes, and that is fact, He never ever changes in the way He deals with us. I am looking forward to seeing Jesus face to face. Let's face it, folks, we have a vision in our minds what He looks like, we have seen paintings and I would think we might all envision His looks a little different, but it is what He is when we have in Him in our hearts when we invite Him in to our lives. When we bring Him into our homes and when we walk with Him daily, that is so important. I like to picture Jesus holding the lamb, for I picture me in His arms as that lost sheep. I also like to picture Him leaning on the rock and praying the night before He was put to death. I picture Him also standing at the door and knocking. I picture Him giving out food, and healing others. And yes, I picture Him holding me up on many, many days. Today I am sure will be another one of them. God is Good! How do you picture Jesus? Sometimes I picture Him on the cross, and the blood running out... That blood was shed for us, folks... again, how do you picture Jesus?

Wow, I got off my subject some today, so let me jump back for just a minute... "As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." Folks, I want you to think about this till tomorrow, what does it really mean to you? You see to me it means... Oh, I guess you will need to wait till tomorrow.

Dear Father in Heaven, Please know that I appreciate You waking me this day and that You gave me a message to send. I seem to have drifted some, but Lord, I pray I am doing what You want me to do as I listen to my heart. Bless this message today, Lord. Today I picture You with Your hands around me helping me. Oh Lord, how I love You. Lord, be with those on the prayer line and help those on our prayer list, and yes, Lord, go to those schools and bless them, please Lord, pay no attention to those who don't want You in our schools for we indeed want You there. Now help us this day in all we do, and may we do it for you. Please, help us repent from our sins and forgive us please of those of yesterday and even this morning. In the name of Jesus, I pray... Amen, and Jesus, "I love You".

Now go forth loving on Jesus and walking with Him and sharing His love and your other blessings with others... Love ya, Pastor Dan.
