Tuesday 1/19/16 The Big Trip (29)

Dear Father in  Heaven: I love You. Please forgive me of my sins. Lord, I give You praise and honor for waking us another day, to spend another day on Your Earth, and I pray I use it wisely for You in all I do. Lord, please be with and heal Myliana Faith and watch over her. Please also be with the family of Dr. Robert Everhard, DDS, as he is now in Your care and with You. Lord, please watch over those who use this line and protect them from evil and protect the computers from those trying to hack them. Father, I pray today for our veterans and all of our current military and ask You keep them safe. I pray for the families of those Marines who are missing after their choppers hit each other. Lord, the training is sometimes as dangerous as the war. Lord, please protect our police, as more and more people want to ambush them, and Lord, please protect our firefighters, those running into buildings, Lord, as others run out. Lord, also protect all first responders and others who work  hard to keep us safe until You return for all of us who love You and are saved. Please, Lord, bless me now with another message and then please help me to get it dispatched. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Dear brothers and sisters, please pray for Myliana Faith. Her grandfather's prayer request is listed in full. Tomorrow is Salvation Wednesday and the day we work even harder to bring the lost to Jesus. I started calling Wednesdays this for when I was growing up my Mamma would take me to Wednesday Evening prayer meetings. At one time most churches were open for mid-week services and I do not know if they are now open or not. However, I want to be sure we have some sort of mid-week special messages. Some Wednesdays I don't get to the computer and tomorrow might be one of them as I have back-to-back doctor appointments. Just trying to keep you informed and we do appreciate your prayers.

Please pray for my granddaughter Myliana Faith Sansoni (20 months old) as she has been hospitalized for the 2nd time in a week for breathing treatments due to pneumonia-like symptoms: fever and 85% O2 intake levels. She has been in the pediatric ward at Fairfax VA Hospital. Thanks. Tom Sansoni.

Now let me get to the message, The Big Trip.

Tuesday: January 19, 2016: The Big Trip (Day Twenty-nine)

Tempting Jesus, Day three

Matthew 4:8-11 New International Version (NIV)

8 Again, the devil took Him to a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 9 "All this I will give You," he said, "if You will bow down and worship me." 10 Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve Him only.'" 11 Then the devil left Him, and angels came and attended Him.

Dear brothers and sisters, what nerve, what nerve this old devil has by offering Jesus something that He already has control over and made. All this I will give you, Satan said, and brothers and sisters, this is what Satan can be telling us if we are not careful. I will give you all these things if you just bow down to me, and while we might not think we are bowing down to him, if we are piling up things on earth, it might be just that. All my life I had a lot of cars and trucks. I just love vehicles, and yes, before I got to some to fix them up and resell them, some of them rotted away. This past summer when I was at a low point, one thing that was running through my mind was just this. I was for a long time not a good steward of what God had blessed me with. I mean I was really thinking of how this is really sinful. Even after I came to Jesus to be saved, I still purchased vehicles to fix up and I did well on some of them, and amazing how He works, junk prices were up here the other year and I did well on selling some of the "junk." Now, I am storing up my treasures in Heaven and still working to clean out some earthly stuff.

So if you are like me, and I know some of you are, please give to God and you will have more to share with others. It is time to say what Jesus said: "Away from me, Satan!!!" Out of my life. Now I want to bring this to  you today. There might be a time coming, and real soon if we don't bow down to a false god, we will be killed. It has happened all over the world, including right here in America. Stand strong, brothers and sisters, and pray for each other that this does not happen to you. Dolores and I have already talked this over and if it would cost us our lives, WE SHALL NOT BOW DOWN TO ANY OTHER god, ONLY TO OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ... Amen.

This has happened to our missionaries all over the world, and one just this week someplace in Africa one was murdered and they called out they were killing all those who worshiped the Cross. Here is a song that tells you more.

Seek Ye First (Karen Lafferty)

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness
And all these things shall be added unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah.

Ask and it shall be given unto you.
Seek and you shall find.
Knock and it shall be opened unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah.

Dear Father in Heaven:  Help us all not to bow down to anything other than our Lord God, our dear Jesus. Help us each day to live up to that. In Jesus' Name, I pray. Amen.

Now go forth serving Jesus and honoring Him more and more. Love ya.

Pastor Dan

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness
And all these things shall be added unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah.

Ask and it shall be given unto you.
Seek and you shall find.
Knock and it shall be opened unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah.
