Pray unceasingly...and remember it!

As a Christian, there is a very important right we have towards God and that is....we pray and He answers. I have had many times where I have prayed and felt that I had not received an answer (or didnt receive the answer I wanted), or kept praying and never received an answer (though, my patience eventually grew thin). I then realized that I had prayed so many times, that I forgot almost all my prayers! Or I had sought after a specific answer and had not gotten what I wanted because of my shallow thinking, not realizing that the real answer was given and it was according to God’s unfathomable wisdom. After a time, I eventually gave all to Him and accepted all His answers since..”How could we know what’s best for us when it is the Almighty God who created us, sustains us, and gives us all we need?”


Thus I spent the time to remember and even write down what and who I had prayed for, I began to see how many prayers the Lord had answered and I became so encouraged! We are so quick sometimes and have little faith, but the most faithful Lord lives within us (or He can live in you! Just believe as you call out loud..."Oh Lord Jesus!"). The Lord gives us a parable in Luke 18 about a woman and a judge (which typifies us and the Lord) and He tells us to always pray and not lose heart!


Be encouraged, pray unceasingly, remember your prayers,


and you will see just how faithful He is!

Diving into God...

Right now I am in spirit! To be caught up in the flow is so, so, so, wonderful! I am singing, enjoying, just dwelling....Saints, music is a vey powerful tool for us to enjoy the Lord. He enjoys so much when we sing to Him in our personal fellowship with Him. It doesn't matter if you dont have a beautiful voice. All that matters is that you make a joyful noise! Praise the Lord!


What I'm singing: "I've found a boundless store of, grace upon grace in Your name, God's greatest gift to me is You dear Lord.....Oh Lord Jesus Your name saves, by calling, I receive life. From the beginning of my life -until now...Amem!"

Blending and Traffic among the Churches

Wow, what a time I had when I visited the churches in Brazil! My vision was enlarged so much. I encourage all of you to pray and go! Not only to Brazil but to all the churches so that all the positive things could be blended together and all the negative things would be blended out.


I was very impressed with the simplicity of the saints and their exercised spirits, especially the young ones. I believe God is very happy when we are able to fellowship beyond borders and cultures. Thank you Lord, we love You for you glorious Body!

How important is the Word of God?

Well, the Word of God (as the Bible) is the Bread of Life and the Light of Man! How about that? I've experienced being away from the Word lately and I lose direction and light when I'm away too long. Thank the Lord He reminds us to get into His Word! Don't be without the Word of God too long. Daily we need this Bread. Thank you Lord for the Daily Bread!


As I turned back to the Word....Oh what light!!....Oh what life!!! God can speak to us through any verse if we approach His word with an open heart and an exercised spirit. Praise the Lord!
