Prayers For Those That Are In Need

Dear God, I know that it is Your will to help those that are afflicted, to support the weak, to provide for the widows and orphans and to help those that are in need. Bless Lorraine according to Your riches in glory. Open a window and pour out the blessings of Salvation.

Use my hands to be of service to those in need, and use my voice to speak words of healing and encouragement to those that are afflicted and in distress. Thank You for hearing my prayer. In Jesus' name.

According to Genesis 24, I pray that the Holy Spirit would undertake to bring a marriageable woman into my world, who is a Christian too.

As someone who once served in a church: you can put a prayer request into the offering plate. The Church members pray over them. Let your faith touch God and give thanks until the answer arrives.

Prayer has been removed from school but it's ok to switch genders.

Frightening.

Television is another bad influence as well. Especially Sports! they wants to be a voice and is for all immortality. Social media is now the biggest tool for spreading opinion and views and everybody has one!!

All you hear is your god, My god, The man from above, The Basketball gods. Everybody has one, they're just not made of wood and clay vessels anymore. We build them in our minds!

Entertainment is controlling the culture change especially Hollywood.

With all this bad information at your fingertips, by the time a kid gets old enough to think on his own somebody's thinking for him. Any and everything is truth but the bible.

That's Godless! This didn't happen overnight.

When we pray to God don't ask him to restore things back to our former days, they wasn't good either. Atleast not for everyone. We pray with the humility of Daniel.

He included himself when he prayed for his nation.

It's getting late for me.

I would like to speak some more on this tomorrow.

God bless.

We have the right to vote. We have the privilege to attend open school board meetings.

The Book of Deuteronomy 11: GOD shows us that the burden to teach our children BIBLE TRUTH is on the Believing Parents. We do not get a pass on SPIRITUAL EDUCATION, in the Home. We don't get to edit out "parts" according to politics.

Example: my son said his teacher taught we all came from APES. He was upset because he had a test the next day!

I asked him if he ever saw an ape inside of his public school? Did he see a ape living in a 3 bedroom house with air conditioning, big screen tv with remote, PlayStation 5? A $60,000 car, full refrigerator?

He was in tears. He said teacher was going to give an "F"to everyone who disagreed with her.

I gave him my PERMISSION TO FLUNK THE TEST. I told him there would be science projects he could get an A+ on. He did the work and his grade average Passed Him to the next grade. He learned hard work beats HERESY every single time.

I also taught him in my home_ sex education and Godly morals. He learned the correct names and functions. He grew up having respect for the female sex.

Another time (age 15) I asked if he wanted to marry a virgin? He said YES!! I told him as the man, he should protect his virgin & keep her pure. Proverbs 3

Don't be afraid to teach Bible principals to your kids. Teach Godly knowledge. God made them, to be passed from one generation to the next one. It works.

Hi Chis,

Regarding creation of Jesus: I don't recall a scripture either. I'll try to make my thoughts clearer. When we think of human body (flesh) creations, many may think of God's design of the reproductive system. Or with Adam and Eve, we have the Genesis account. Not so with Jesus (Christ). Again, I believe Jesus is an EXTENSION (creation) of God Who is Spirit. Actually, using JUST the word Christ here might be appropriate, because although names (Jesus) have certain meanings, their purpose is for body (flesh) identification.

Jesus is the Word, meaning Truth. Jesus is the Truth. The Spirit is Truth. Jesus(Christ) is Spirit. Why is He? Because His Creator Is. And much more. God's creations are wholly lovable and loving, eternal, holy, full of light, and unchangeable. These descriptions are all one. God is not a body. If God is perfect and eternal, then by definition anything He creates would also have to be perfect and eternal.

Anyways, just some thoughts.

Peace

Hello Willie. If by your question you're referring to the state of people today, I would direct you to 2 Timothy chapter 3. For many years now (even decades), I see an increasing propensity by folk to go further away from righteous & holy things, towards self-gratification & carnality. Not just found in mature men & women but also children, taking example from their parents & peers.

Governments give more concern to our physical welfare & equality for all but care little for the spiritual & moral decline that permeates society. And add 'political correctness ' & a weak policing & justice system to the mix, you get the recipe for a degraded & continually deteriorating society, all the while believing man has progressed & ensured happiness for all. There have been many worthwhile developments in all areas of personal & corporate life, but when moral & spiritual decay are left to go unchecked, man has very little to crow about.

All people, Jew or Gentile, that have been circumcised in their hearts; that BELIEVE on Jesus for Salvation.

" Ezekiel 36:26 - A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

Psalms 51:10 - Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me."

Book of John 3, also 1-2-3 John at the back of the Bible.

It has nothing to do with religions. It has everything to do with relationship and obedience to God.

Hello Adam,

As a retired public school teacher, I saw this coming into the curriculum about 5 years ago. First they "train" (desensitize, propagandize, indoctrinate) the teachers and staff, then in a year or two, it is introduced into the curriculum. With this insidious sexual education and with CRT, the design is to have this ideology be incorporated into every subject matter so that it is woven into every aspect of the school environment. Gone are the days when a parent could just opt their child out of sex education teaching for that portion of the day. The directives are coming down to the local schools from the state Offices of Public Instruction and the Federal Education department. So, local school districts will lose funding if they do not comply with these directives. And, we all know, it is money that drives the decisions at the local level more than principles.

My suggestion is to urge every parent of school age children to take their children out of the public schools and enroll them in a Christian private school or home school them. This decision is very costly to parents and some just cannot afford these two options. So, for those of us who are led, we can speak up for these children that will remain int he public school by how we vote concerning the ideologies of candidates beginning at the school board level, we can speak up at the school board meetings, communicate to the superintendent, principal, teachers ones concerns (it doesn't matter if one has kids in school or not, we employ them). We can, inform the public about what is actually being taught in classes by gaining access to curriculum materials to review (we have a right to do this). We can help some families by contributing to tuition scholarships.

But, we really cannot sit back and let this happen to the youngest of our population. I got out of teaching when covid hit, and it was very timely as these things became part of the curriculum in the two years I have been out. Pray and act.

*J.E.H.O.V.A.H.= Jehovah, Emmanuel & HolyGhost; Overturned Verdict Against Humanity!*

Gary Myers,

We sleep in death until we are resurrected.

If I may give my understanding.

Luke 16:19-31 First, we must understand this is a parable, and the parables Jesus told he had to explain for his disciples to understand and he did not explain this one. We cannot take this passage as a literal description.

In the context of Luke 16, Jesus is talking to Pharisees and scribes about stewardship, love of riches, adultery and no servant can serve two masters. The Pharisees were covetous, they flaunted their wealth and the seat of authority they had. Is this parable describing a holding place where the redeemed can live in peace but can look and even talk across a vast chasm with the sufferings of the sinners in torment?

The Babylonian Talmud speaks of "Abraham's Bosom" as the place that righteous Jews went after they died. The Jewish people of the time of Jesus had been influenced by Babylonian and Hellenistic Greek cultures, and that influence is still today.

Jesus was probably using a common image from that culture to create a picture that they could relate to their final destination. This parable also does not fit all of the scripture if we receive our reward as soon as we die, as said, we go to heaven or hell.

Many scriptures tell us when we will receive our reward and it is not when we die. Here are just a few and they all agree it is at the second coming of Jesus Christ. Matthew 16:27 1 Corinthians 1:7-8 1 Corinthians 15:22-23 1 Thessalonians 2:19 Revelation 22:12

John wrote this a while after Jesus ascended, he said Jesus was in heaven, "Son of man which is in heaven", John 3:13. Peter said David is dead and buried and his sepulcher is with us unto this day, and he has not ascended to heaven. Acts 2:29-34

The day of redemption, Eph. 4:30 1 Cor. 15:52 1 Thess.4:16 (not descend) and many more.

God bless,

RLW

Thank you all for many good responses.

Beverly and Victoria r correct I think . We should play an active part in the upbringing of our own children and the children of our close family and our fellow church members . If we think that it's ok to just leave it to our schools to bring our children up we r asking for trouble . It's our job to ensure that all the children of our family , physical and spiritual r brought up by us , not paid employees who r not shepherds , they r hirelings and care not for our lambs but have their own agendas .

Lord as we come to your throne today, father, we ask you to watch over Yvonne. God we know that you are the maker and provider lord and we ask that you comfort her heart and put your loving hand in their lives lord to give them comfort and strength in these times. let the spirit move to inspire others to come to her lord and aide her with her needs lord. In Jesus name we pray. Amen!

Love you sister! Keep your faith strong and believe in your prayers. I know times can be so difficult to keep that mind set. But the good lord hears you and he sees you and he will never forsake you!

Hi Adam,

This stuff has been out there for quite some time. Respectfully, I would have to ask, "Where have you been?" Many schools teach that one consider that all people with white skin are racist. Its sad; the hate and fear they imbue upon these young minds.

As far as biblical help; pray for your enemies? Lincoln said,"Do I not destroy my enemies when I make them my friends?" So pray for your perceived enemies that they would become your friends.

What should parents do? Take your children out of the public school system. I taught a 14 yr. old last year and gearing up to start again in few weeks. Its not always easy, but the children are worth it. It is going to worsen and they cannot harm them when they have no one to teach. Perhaps then they will figure it out.

Alex,

What bible are you reading? And where does God tell Moses that His name is Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? I cannot find this any place in the KJV. My bible (KJV) tells me that God told Moses His name is I AM. With all due respect, the things you are saying here make zero sense to me.

Hi Giannis,

I believe those were literal flames but not the flames of Hell. This was Hades. There is no one in Hell yet. I do believe that there will be a future resurrection of the dead. In fact, there will be two, one for the New Testament saints that Jesus comes for at the time of the rapture, and then a future resurrection after the 1,000 year reign of Christ for all those who rejected Christ, and they will be cast into the lake of fire (Hell).

As far as resurrection from the dead goes, what would be your understanding of Matthew 26:52-53? I understand those to be Old Testament saints who were resurrected shortly after Jesus' resurrection. These would have been all the saints who were in Abraham's Bosom. I believe that not only were they were resurrected, but they were also seen by many in Jerusalem.

But as far as the presentation of the rich man and Lazarus given to us in Luke 16:19-31, the theme that I see all the way through is that Jesus is talking about the contrasts between this earthly life and the spirit realm, earthly life and the Kingdom of God. There is no greater contrast than in Verses 19 through 31, the presentation of the rich man and Lazarus. I call it a presentation because it is not a parable as some bibles call it. This is the story of true people. And these two people are opposites. They are in contrast to each other as far as people in their conditions in their earthly life, contrast in their death, and then after life throughout eternity is another contrast.

Blessings to you also!

Brother Jesse:

I agree with your comments.

We have to surrender (die) our life to Christ.

Do we have life, in and of ourselves, NO? Most don't understand this.

1 Corinthians 4:11 For we which LIVE are always delivered unto death for Jesus sake, that the LIFE OF JESUS might be made manifest in our mortal bodies (as well as in our IMMORTAL bodies in the AGE TO COME).

To repent means to change our way of UNDERSTANDING.

To repent would be to agree with God's word.

John 14:6 I AM the way, the Truth, and the LIFE.

Colossians 1:27 ....this mystery ....Christ in you .....

Philippians 2:13 For it is GOD (in you) that worketh both TO WILL and TO DO his good pleasure.

Christ (the first man) UNDERSTOOD this ....THOU in ME....the Father did EVERYTHING through Christ.

Man has to come to TRUTH (Christ in you): Man does EVERYTHING ....I in THEM .....through Christ.

This is the great DECEPTION: No KNOWLEDGE of the WORKS of God.

Hebrews 2:8 .....For now we see NOT YET all things put under him.

Man's time table IS NOT God's timetable.

Ephesians 2:7 That in the AGES TO COME .....

Isaiah 11:9 ....for the earth shall be full of the KNOWLEDGE of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I PLEASE, and it shall prosper in the things whereto I SENT IT.

1 Corinthians 15:28 And when all things (in the ages to come) have been subdued to him, then shall the Son also be subject unto him who put all things under him, that GOD may be ALL in ALL.

God Bless ALL on our pilgrimage to TRUTH.

Not everyone receives the Holy Ghost after water baptism. Many certainly do, yes. But not all. For me it took nearly 3 years. I didn't fully understand it & I was fearful.

Since then I have obeyed the gospel=death, burial & resurrection of Jesus Christ w love & in obedience & following in all his ways.

Jesus said we must be born of water & of the Spirit to enter into the kingdom of God. We must be born again to see the kingdom.

i have a question please on a different topic.

when GOD calls his people back home, does that include Gentiles? or just the original Jews?

Thank you

john

Please remember the Holy Ghost came to the woman and left the same stairstep of Dominion that he had from Gen 3:16 just holy now but in God she is still a woman and have to follow the course of this Flesh. All she do in the lord should be under the man's leadership and not leading him .woman have the zeal of God in love but some is not according to knowledge. They need teaching if they are willing to obey then they need teaching . There is no world where the woman can come ahead of the man . This is Satan

in the Church Thanks Willie

good morning Giannis!!!

john 1 is one of my favorite chapters in the KJV Bible!!!

what a wonderful and fulfilling truth by our Lord Jesus Christ!!!!

thank you for reminding us that Jesus is God in flesh form!!!!!

Amen, and blessings to you and yours!!!!!

God do not contradict himself the holy ghost has nothing to do with the flesh but power over the spirit of the devil .A women and a man have a chores in this word through the flesh and the no male or female is for when we become Angels. A woman still are under Adam and eve law in the flesh and the flesh of a man have the rulership over the woman. The holy spirit will stop a woman for her monthly period nor childbirth nor death . Hebrews 5:1 if a priest is needed and your pastor is dead then then church must

line all qualified males and choose a priest from among men. Numbers 28:1 when god was setting up the priesthood he said call all males from the family of Arron that they may minister to me in the priesthood . God had a women prophetess call Mariam Moses sister. a elder is appointment after one is saved. The holy ghost have nothing to do with putting a woman in authority over a man just over the Devil works. 1Tim 2:11 this was after the holy Ghost had fell Acts 2:1 -2 1Co 11:3-4 this was written after the Holy Ghost had fell. So why now the women liberation is come now it seems that God have a new thing concerning the Pastor position. if you believe anything out of the scripture you are in False Doctrine and the Bible say's if a Angel from heaven preach any other gospel from what we preach let him be accursed . So it is not what God told the woman she could not do...He told her what to do. Thanks Willie

Hello Doug,

I think we would be hard pressed to find someone that understands it all. I know I am far, far from it myself. My thought on remission of sin is that no amount of water can remove the stain of sin. I believe the blood Jesus shed was sufficient, nothing else needed, including water. Personally, and this is just my thought process, but if I were to say that water played some part in the remission of sin, I would basically be saying that the blood Jesus shed on my behalf was insufficient for my salvation.

As for John 19:34, those pockets of blood and water that are around the heart area, some medical experts have said this indicates that Jesus died of a ruptured heart and that water and blood would coagulate in the area around the heart by the way that He died, suffocating.



Here is what I get from reading 1 John 5:6: It says, "This is He, (Jesus), that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth." John is going to present three witnesses. At the Lord's baptism, it showed He had a physical body. But he says and blood, that it was the Lord's physical body that shed blood on the cross. Both of those instances are witnesses to the physical body of Jesus, along with the Spirit that bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth.

Now for Acts 2:38, where Peter says, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins," I have to believe that they would have never been water baptized unless they first repented. My understanding is that repentance is the emphasis, not water baptism. A person must repent, completely surrender their life to Christ for their salvation, and then after that, be water baptized. But it's the repentance and complete surrender to Jesus Christ that removes or remits sin, not water.

Add nor takeaway from the word of God. There is no written word of God where a women was ever to be over a man. A pastor is in a position of authority. I will believe what the bible say's and let women keep silent in authority with all subjection .You know what subjection mean's it don't mean dominion.1C 11:3-4 is the stairsteps of dominion .Our churches is out of order with the women's liberation movement defiled the church of God. It is now a perverted and backward doctrine. I will never be under a woman pastor.That is my conviction and I will die with it and you are no one will change me 1+1= two . End of story Thanks

where we can place in the bible the modern women and men today?

Time speeds increase else man would not survive.

You make more confusion now how can Jesus go up to his Father and his God if Jesus is God how can this be I'm crazy now.

Most Baptist churches recognize two ordinances that believers should partake of, The Lords Supper and Baptism. My question is, since the Apostle Paul is the Apostle to the Gentiles, where does he include Baptism as an ordinance? Being baptized into the Body of Christ is a spiritual baptism not a water baptism and is the only baptism he writes to Gentile believers. Wasnt baptism required only for Jewish believers when Peter offered them the Kingdom Gospel... Acts 2:38? and John the Baptist preaching the Kingdom of God is at hand? It seems that the Apostle Paul stopped baptizing all together when reading the first chapter of 1st Corinthians.

Jesus plainly tells Nic. a Jew he had to be bornagain in order to enter the kingdom of God.....It don't matter how much ppl tell you you are the Children of God....If you don't birth the son of God in your heart you are none of his....Remember what Jesus said unless you Receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child...( the H.G. That Child of Promise ) You will in no wise enter there in.....All of the lords original disciples were Jews and they all had to be bornagain no exceptions....But fear not its his good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.....The H.G. is the Gift of God to anybody and everybody that hears his words....and keeps them..But there has to be NEW BIRTH...OK GBU

When God told Moses that his name was Abraham Issac and Jacob and my memorial to ALL Generations Exodus 3 :15....It was just prophetic that there is gonna be an Israel of God.... Gal 6:16

Via the seeds of the Sower the words of God,.... Being bornagain of an in corruptible seed is gonna make us the ISRAEL OF GOD....That New Covenant...The contents of the book that he wrote with his own blood .

We got to keep in mind that Abraham Issac and Jacob was a picture of multiplcation of Abraham's seed...That earthy Promise.....But there is a heavenly Promise that is the multiplication of very God the seed of Christ Jesus that is gonna be as the Stars of heaven in multitudes.....God Almighty swore by himself when he made that heavenly Promise meaning he was gonna multiply his very self.....Thats y Jesus is saying to whom the word ( that Godly seed ) came it made them Gods plural....Thus this Abraham Issac and Jacob title is just a picture of an Israel of God...
