From: jesus_is_lord To: List Member Subject: Rejoice! Date: Wednesday, June 14, 2000 2:42 PM jesus_is_lord [Reminder: this list is not for hellbounds. Repent and get washed in the blood of Jesus and it will be for you.] Dear Christian Friend: Greetings in the name of the ONLY wise God and Saviour Jesus Christ. I'm working on my emails and I plan to answer every email from my siblings in Christ. I may sound like a broken record but I love you and love to hear from you. True words of encouragment, edification, exhortation and rebuke are received. A sister once wrote me a word of strong exhortation and then followed it with an email saying she may have been too strong. She wasn't and the word she spoke remains with me to this day. I do not know if I will ever forget it. It has caused me to force myself to write even as the cares of this life surround me. It was a word from the Lord. I'm pressing and it feels good. Thank you Sis. Teresa. So many like Bro. Luke, Sis. Terry, Bro. Christopher, Sis. Sharon and on and on write and tell me that they are praying for this ministry. Some have been praying for years. Bro. Pat and Bro. Dave have been of great encouragment. Another Sis. Teresa is my Abigail. I'm LOATHE to mention these names because I leave out so many but I want to include a few names so that the saints understand that they have flesh and blood brothers and sisters all over the world that are praying and serving. Saints are praying that people will be saved. For all those that pray, I continually ask the Lord to cause the fruits of this ministry to abound to their account. With all this in mind... Today as I was worshipping, I received an email with the following subject line-- "NOT HELL-BOUND ANYMORE" Amen and hallelujah! All because of the blood of Jesus! Thank you, Jesus! Snatched from the flames and placed in the peace of Christ. The blood of Jesus is STILL saving souls in 2000! It's POWERFUL. Thank you, Jesus! Satan been beat down once again. Keep prayin' saints! Keep on prayin'! Keep on prayin'! Hallelujah! Bro. Michael is our new brother in Christ. He is already ministering by giving me a word of edification that I had never considered-- "I am leaving the Anglican Church after reading some of your articles pertaining to the eucharist and infant baptism. It is **not only the Roman Catholics who worship the eucharist. The Anglicans also do it** and I think IT MIGHT SAVE quite a number of Anglicans if you mention this in your articles on your website..." Already ministering. The word is received. Amen and hallelujah! If any of the saints have a word for Bro. Michael, I have started a thread on the message board at http://www.insidetheweb.com/mbs.cgi/mb946820 *****PRAYER REQUEST***** Our God is a miracle-workin', power-endowing, prayer-answering God. Ask Him anything according to His will and He will do it! He said He would. Try Him and see! After you ask Him, go ahead and walk in faith cause it is already accomplished. You see, He can't lie. Hallelujah! Every man is a liar, but God ain't a man that He should lie. It is IMPOSSSIBLE for God to lie. Read His word and base your life on it and see! When He says sin shall have no reign over your mortal body, He is not lying! If we say we cannot overcome a sin, we call God a liar! God forbid. Instead we should call ourselves weak and disobedient. Then we should start obeying. When we call on the Lord, He answers us. Lord please help us to understand-- Luke 11:5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; 11:6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him? 11:7 And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee. 11:8 I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his IMPORTUNITY he will rise and give him as many as he needeth. If a man will give you your petition because you gettin' on his nerves asking, what about your Father? Luke 11:9 And I say unto you, ASK, AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN YOU; SEEK, and ye shall find; KNOCK, and it shall be opened unto you. 11:10 For EVERY ONE that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh FINDETH; and to him that knocketh IT SHALL BE OPENED. 11:11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? 11:12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 11:13 If ye then, BEING EVIL, KNOW HOW to give good gifts unto your children: HOW MUCH MORE shall YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? Let us hear of the unjust judge-- Luke 18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought ALWAYS to pray, and not to faint; 18:2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: 18:3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 18:4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; 18:5 Yet because this widow TROUBLETH ME, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. 18:6 And the Lord said, HEAR what the unjust judge saith. 18:7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which CRY DAY AND NIGHT UNTO HIM, though he bear long with them? 18:8 I tell you that HE WILL avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? THE FIRST PRAYER REQUEST: Knowing that God hears and answers my prayers, I am asking Jesus to strengthen my brothers and sisters ALL OVER THE WORLD including-- North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, Antarctica, every island, every inhabited place. This prayer includes every single Christian on this list. I am asking Jesus to build up each one and make each one a praise to His name and His doctrine. THE SECOND PRAYER REQUEST: I'm asking for salvation miracles ALL OVER THE WORLD as the beautiful feet carry the gospel to every corner. I pray that every Christian on this list will agree with me concerning these petitions-- Matthew 18:19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching ANY THING that they shall ask, IT SHALL BE DONE FOR THEM OF MY FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN. Isaiah asked "Who hath believed our report?" I have and I know others have too. Jesus said when we ask something in His name HE WILL DO IT. We know that these petitions are within your will. I thank Thee Father for hearing and answering our petition. Ephesians 3:14 For this cause I BOW MY KNEES UNTO THE FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, 3:15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be STRENGTHENED WITH MIGHT by his Spirit in the inner man; 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by FAITH; that ye, being rooted and grounded in LOVE, 3:18 May be able to COMPREHEND with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which PASSETH knowledge, that ye might be FILLED WITH ALL THE FULNESS OF GOD. 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the POWER that worketh in us, 3:21 Unto him be GLORY in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. *****WORSHIPPING***** I was worshipping the Lord as I answered emails and listened to the songs of Zion... BUILD ME UP where I am falling Make me STRONG when I am weak AND ANNOINT ME WITH YOUR POWER, LORD STRENGTHEN ME. POWER to fight Satan on every hand And the ways of this wicked land Strengthen me. You are the potter, I am the clay Mold me and make me, HAVE THINE OWN WAY. This is my earnest plea. Strengthen me, O Lord, I pray. Build me up where I am falling Put my feet on HIGHER ground. O strengthen me. When I hear the men in the choir singing, "Strengthen me" I say, "Go men!" Then the ladies come on in and rejoice too. Praise Him, choir! Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord for His goodness! Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! Hallelujah and amen. When we surround ourselves with the things of Zion, the new Jeruselem, it is easy to get our shout on. I literally do. My soul is so filled up with the goodness of the Lord. I AM HIS TEMPLE. He don't dwell in temples made with hands. My body is where He dwells and His glory fills the temple. Hallelujah! Who can describe this thing? It is too wonderful for me. Acts 7:48 Howbeit the most High DWELLETH NOT IN TEMPLES MADE WITH HANDS; as saith the prophet, 1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that YE ARE THE TEMPLE OF GOD, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth IN YOU? 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, WHICH TEMPLE YE ARE. 6:19 What? know ye not that YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 2 Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for YE ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. [Hallelujah, thank you Jesus!!!] *****THE ALTAR CALL***** On Sunday, there was an altar call at church. I felt that I needed to go, but did not. Then the pastor did something unusual. He made the call the second time and more people went up but I stayed still. When they all left, he got back in the pulpit and said, "Somebody else needed to come up here." So I went up by myself. He looked surprised, came down from the pulpit to the floor, and asked me why I came. The only thing that I could whisper was, "I want to walk in the power at all times. It comes and goes and I want to walk in it at all times." I repeated it thinking perhaps it would come out more specific the next time--it didn't. He prayed over me, annointed my forehead with oil, told the congregation my request and shouted "So be it!" several times as I went back to my seat. Hallelujah! Hallelujah and amen! I know that I have my petition because it is inside the will of God. He wants to hide me and you under His skirt. He wants me and you to walk in His power at all times. Have YOUR WAY, Lord! hallelujah! *****CONCLUSION***** Hebrews 13:20 Now THE GOD OF PEACE, THAT BROUGHT AGAIN FROM THE DEAD OUR LORD JESUS, that GREAT SHEPHERD OF THE SHEEP, THROUGH THE BLOOD OF THE EVERLASTING COVENANT, 13:21 MAKE YOU PERFECT in every good work TO DO HIS WILL, working in you that which is WELLPLEASING in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. for Jesus' sake, tracy -- http://www.jesus-is-lord.com ...I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD. And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
