A.C.T.S church

We know according to scripture that false teachers, false preachers, and false apostles would arise. We are living in a danger zone of lies and greed. Truth is being attacked daily. The Lord is looking for a church( a people) who is label as an ACTS church.

A- authentic
C- compassionate
T- transcendent
S- Spirit-filled

I believe in these last days we need to function inside this banner.

A authentic people in Word, Action, and Duty
A compassionate people willing to hold the truth and to tell the truth no matter what happens to them
A transcendent people reaching beyond our knowledge and capturing the knowledge of Jesus Christ
A Spirit-filled people letting the Holy Ghost lead us not us leading the Spirit

THIS IS ONLY A SNAPSHOT OF WHAT THE LORD HAS SHOWN ME FOR THIS GENERATION OF SOULS.

"The Song" For The Ages

There has been one song throughout the ages that is a constant reminder of the GRACE of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

LET THE SONG COME FROM YOUR HEART TODAY!!!

AMAZING GRACE!

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,That saved a wretch like me -I once was lost but now am found,Was blind, but now, I see.
T'was Grace that taught -my heart to fear.And Grace, my fears relieved.How precious did that Grace appear -the hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares -we have already come.T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far -and Grace will lead us home.
The Lord has promised good to me -His word my hope secures.He will my shield and portion be -as long as life endures.
When we've been here ten thousand years -bright shining as the sun.We've no less days to sing God's praise -then when we've first begun.
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,That saved a wretch like me -I once was lost but now am found,Was blind, but now, I see

Just remember where we came from and where we are now!!!!!!

GLORY TO THE LORD FOR HIS GRACE!!!

WHEREVER YOU ARE JUST START SINGING HIS AMAZING GRACE!!!

Wings of Hope

More than often our lives are push to the max. We catch ourselves saying not again or why me Lord. Remember these words we find in Isaiah 40:31 "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. The whole purpose of our walk is to finish so we can be rewarded. The prophet Jeremiah also reminds us that the Lord has a good plan for us not one of evil. He provides HOPE that will sustain us until the end. We can soar with the wings of hope that our Lord provides. Fly within the watchful eye of our Lord today!

Psalms 31:24 "Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that HOPE in the Lord."

Psalms 38:15 "For in thee, O Lord, do I HOPE: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God."

DON'T EVER GIVE UP HOPE! NO MATTER WHAT!

The Call of Holiness

We must remember today that we have been called to a life of holiness. Hebrews 12:14 "Holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." Holiness is of deep importance for the church today. The verse suggests a question which demands our attention. Are we holy? Shall we see the Lord? This question can never be out of season for us. Holiness in today's age is not one of popularity. However, it is the most profitable to our souls. We must be holy for it is COMMANDED of us. The Lord Jesus told his people "Except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven." The Pharisees seemed holy on the outside but in fact their lives where greedy and selfish. I pray that you will go and study about the Pharisees and scribes to make sure you are not in the same mode. Another COMMAND we find is in 1 Peter 1:15,16 "As He which has called you is holy; so be ye holy in all manner of conversation, BECAUSE IT IS WRITTEN, be ye holy, for I am holy." Church a life of holiness is the only sound evidence that we are children of God. In these last days souls weigh in the balance of our lives. You see the bible speaks about a great falling away that would happen from the faith and doctrine of the gospel. A soul in darkness cannot see the light until someone with light shines in there eyes. Holiness way of life proves to a darken soul that there is a holy God. There is more harm done today through unholy and inconsistent children of God. Will we not become part of the great falling away and choose to stay holy before the Lord. For Satan and his demons want to destroy our testimony of holiness. The Lord is calling the church to stand and be counted in this day of perversion. My prayer is that by His grace we have the courage to stand and be counted for the pure unadulterated gospel. AMEN! Hear the call TODAY! and remain HOLY!

The Secret of Happiness

The secret of happiness is to have the Holy Ghost in your life. The Holy Ghost provides many elements in our daily lives. I can say without a doubt if I did not receive the gift of the Holy Ghost I would not be happy nor would I be standing for the gospel of truth. Happiness today is perverted. For one to feel happy it is based upon the material world. The definition of happiness means enjoying, showing, or marked by pleasure, satisfaction, or joy. I encourage you today child of God to remember that your joy resides in the Holy Ghost. Romans 14:17 "For the kingdom of God is not meat or drink but righteousness, and peace, and JOY in the Holy Ghost."
The secret of happiness is to let the Holy Ghost reside in your daily lives. A lot of saints have the Holy Ghost but do we allow it to work within us everyday. The song says I have the joy, joy, joy, joy, down in my heart where down in my heart. The Holy Ghost will produce happiness in us because it will lead and guide us into all truth. People can hurt us and lie to us but not the Spirit of the Lord. It will comfort us in the time of need when no one understands nor can help us. My joy is not in this world or the things of this world. My happiness comes from knowing that I have been given the gift of the Spirit. Church remember that when we allow the Holy Ghost to teach us and revel what the Lord wants us to do then we will achieve happiness. SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD. The Holy Ghost is the secret to the world's happiness they just don't see it. We need to be marked by the JOY we have in the Holy Ghost so others can taste and see that the Lord is good. Acts 1:8 says we shall receive POWER after the Holy Ghost is come upon us. Let the power of the Holy Ghost flow through you and into someone else today. Let the joy come out today and express your worship and praise in front of someone who is not living for the Lord. The flu spreads so fast that it effects large numbers of people. I wonder why can't the Holy Ghost spread like the flu. Spreading like wildfire. Let's pursue to show the joy of the Holy Ghost until the Lord returns for his bride.

"Keys" To Life

I was getting into my van today I noticed how many keys I have. Some of the keys are to nothing and some are important to my everyday life. I remember my grandfather having a huge key ring with tons of keys on it. I have noticed around me that some people have alot of keys and some don't have that many keys. Then the Lord used the keys to remind me that there alot of "keys" out there that seem to unlock the right door. Those "keys" are just like my six nothing keys.

Remember church only one Key can unlock the DOOR to life. The key is Jesus Christ. Not all keys will open the "door" nor will all paths lead to salvation.

ONE NAME UNDER HEAVEN where we MUST be saved!

Acts 4:12 " Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."

The goal of Satan is to have one big HUGE key ring where it seems all "keys" are the right one.

But we know through Eph. 4:5 there is only ONE.

Pastors, evangelists, teachers keep upholding the one true key JESUS CHRIST.

The Ultimate Challenge

Brothers and Sisters in the Lord I must give you a warning in this post. In the months to come we will face a challenge, one that will push every ounce of faith we have. I would like to call this the " ultimate challenge". I have heard prayer request coming in like a flood lately. Child of God, I believe just as Job faced a challenge about his faithfulness we will as well. Let's take a brief look at his "challenge" which was a gauntlet of many "tests". Oxen and donkeys slain. Fire destroys sheep. Camels stolen. Children killed( 7 men, 3 women). Covered in boils. Wife abandons God. Friends come to comfort but accuse. I would say that classifies as a ultimate challenge. We are going to face the same thing child of God. Everything that can come will come. So how did Job get through this challenge? By extreme faithfulness. You and I will have to become passionate about living in the will of God than ever before. The "tests" will become more intense as the enemy raises up. We must STAND in faithfulness no matter what storm comes against us. There is an old saying fight fire with fire. It is time church that we pull out our swords and defend our walk with the Lord.

This ultimate challenge will push us like never before church. It will take every ounce of energy we have to remain faithful unto the Lord. Can we be like Job who stay faithful beyond all the suffering he had to face. Faithfulness will produce the victory in this ultimate challenge. Faithfulness in prayer, faithfulness in fasting, faithfulness in reading the word, faithfulness in every aspect of our walk.

Let's run the race that is before us and be faithful unto the finish line.

Philippians 4:13 " I can do all things through CHRIST who strengths me."

Remember the words of the Prophet Jeremiah " Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find REST for your souls.

Let's become extreme in our passion to remain FAITHFUL unto the Lord.

Take a hard look at the picture and burn that image into your soul. You can see the intensity that the hands make by gripping together.

The Ultimate Challenge awaits us are we ready!
