JUST FOR TODAY: There have been some rough times for some this week. Must say I've had my own share this week. So what are we going to do about it?? We have two choices: we can "give up" or we can "surrender" and these two words DO NOT mean the same thing. When we "give up", we throw our hands up in the air, give in to preoccupation with our problems, and fall into the pit of self-pity. That's when we let the powers of this world overtake us. BUT, when we "surrender" to the Lord Jesus, we "pray without ceasing" and cast our problems and burdens on Him. Praying brings us into the presence of the Lord and in His presence there is also much POWER. In fact, ALL Power belongs to Him. So instead of being overwhelmed and overtaken by the powers of this world, by the mighty Power and Presence of God Almighty we can be lifted up above our circumstances into the realms of Peace!! Will you choose to "give up" and be overtaken today or will you choose to "surrender" to Jesus and be an overcomer?? My prayer for you today is that the God of Peace will set you aside comepletely from all worries and cares and that He will protect and preserve you completely; spirit, soul, and body. Amen. Please Worship at the church of your choice this week-end. ~Pastor Lynn (1 Thessalonians 5:17,23)

Comment by Jan Harbuck, Network Manager on February 21, 2013 at 8:41pm: GOD'S MATH: Whereas algebra dictates that a negative times a positive always equals a negative, God’s textbook, the Bible, dictates that a negative times a positive always equals a positive. When life becomes overpowering it doesn’t matter how much of it is negative. When we put the Holy Spirit of God into the equation the outcome is always the same; we get the help we need to cope and to restore our faith. This is a mystery that flies in the face of earthly logic but it is trustworthy. Sorrow and Affliction x the Holy Spirit = Patience. But God’s algebra doesn’t stop there. Patience x Experience = Faith. It doesn’t seem logical at the outset, but no matter how big sorrow and affliction are, they never come out the winner in this equation.

Comment by Pastor Lynn Kirkland on February 21, 2013 at 7:44am: Heb 13:5 Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, "I will never leave you; I will never abandon you."

Comment by Pastor Lynn Kirkland on February 20, 2013 at 9:06am: 2Co 7:5 Even after we arrived in Macedonia, we did not have any rest. There were troubles everywhere, quarrels with others, fears in our hearts.
2Co 7:6 But God, who encourages the downhearted, encouraged us with the coming of Titus.
2Co 7:7 It was not only his coming that cheered us, but also his report of how you encouraged him. He told us how much you want to see me, how sorry you are, how ready you are to defend me; and so I am even happier now.

Comment by Pastor Lynn Kirkland on February 19, 2013 at 8:35am: Joh 1:41 This one first found his own brother Simon and tells him, We have found the Messiah (which being translated is, the Christ).

Comment by Pastor Lynn Kirkland on February 18, 2013 at 8:44am: Luk 15:18 Rising up, I will go to my father, and I will say to him, Father, I sinned against Heaven and before you,

Comment by Pastor Lynn Kirkland on February 16, 2013 at 7:35am: Php 4:11 Not that I speak as to need, for I have learned to be content in whatever state I am.
Php 4:12 And I know to be humbled, and I know to abound; in everything, and in all things, I am taught both to be filled and to hunger, both to abound, and to lack.
Php 4:13 I have strength for all things in Christ the One strengthening me.

Comment by Pastor Lynn Kirkland on February 15, 2013 at 8:57am: 2Pe 3:18 But grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen

JUST FOR TODAY: Focusing on Jesus who is the author and finisher of your faith is very important today and every day. If you are having a bad day, just remember what Jesus went through on the cross in order to be your Lord and Savior. When you consider how much the Lord Loves you and what He has done for you, your mind will not become weary and you will not faint. Jesus is keeping a Loving eye on you today as He sits at the right hand of the throne of God. Much Power and Strength comes with staying focused on Him. ~Pastor Lynn (Hebrews 12:2-3)
