Why Do Some People Only Go To God When Things Go Wrong

It's amazing how people can talk about God when they are going through things. An associate of mine just lost a family member. This person WON'T EVEN step foot in a church for NOTHING and all of a sudden they get so religious like pray for me and keep my family in your prayers, then write stuff on facebook I did pray for this person and her family, regardless of her religious activity. But this is like the ONLY time God, prayer, or anything of the sort is mentioned.IT JUST BLOWS MY MIND, how people can call on the Lord only when they are going through something, and act as if he doesn't even exist the rest of the time.Well, I am not one to judge but I am glad that I have a relationship with the Lord daily no matter what I am going through depressed,good, bad ,sad, happy,…

A Message For The Syrian People

Last night, as I slept, I heard a voice say, Take this very seriously. Then, A message for the Syrian people.Where we are now is vaporised.This very brief, cryptic message reminded me of a prophecy which was given to Jonathan Hansen in 2003, so I'll repeat it here.Syria oh Syria, a country of blood, deception, mystery, brutality and barbarism. You have lied to the world, you have lied to my people. You speak words of delay and words of death. Trickery and mockery are your wiles and devices. You plot the death of your enemies and the enemies of your gods, while at the same time speak words of purity and holiness.Yes, you are a deceptive snake, a venomous viper, who I will bring to naught. Your time of exploitation is quickly coming to an end. Damascus will be destroyed and the world will know your true intentions were evil,…

#538 – Accept People For Who They Are

ourchristiancountry — Sun, 13 May 2012 05:44:53 +0000

It’s easy to focus on others’ faults and what we would like to change about them. But, God is the one that put the talents, creativity and strengths into each person.

Isaiah 64:8 says, “We’re the clay and you’re our potter: all of us are what you made us.” (The Message)

Our job isn’t to change people. Learn to accept that God is the one directing their steps, making them and molding them into who He wants them to be. If you’ll learn to love, honor and accept people for who they are right now, your relationships will go to a whole new level.

#537 – God Loves Imperfect People

ourchristiancountry — Sun, 06 May 2012 05:44:44 +0000

God loves and uses imperfect people. We all make mistakes. But because Jesus died and rose from the grave, every mistake we will make or ever make has been paid in full. Don’t let shame and guilt keep you from receiving God’s love any longer. Psalm 103:12 (NIV) says, “As far as the east is from the west, our sins are removed from God’s memory.” Since God has removed them from His memory, it’s time we do the same and move forward with God and receive His love and mercy.

You may have made mistakes, but God still believes in you, loves you and has an amazing future in store. Keep your heart toward God, and He will show Himself strong on your behalf!

Are People In 3rd World Countries Going To Be Judged By The Bible?

Many times on television I have seen programs trying to raise money for the impoverished people in the world. These same pictures have been throughout my mind ever since I was a child. It saddens me that people have to live like this, I continue to pray for them everyday.I always wondered what happens to people who have never had the chance to know what the Bible isa chance to read it and study it. Are these same people going to be judged the same as people like you and I who had the opportunity to read and study the Bible all of our lives.People in America who are so blessed being judged the same way as people in some foreign countries, who are doing all they can to survive living in slums not knowing where their next meal is coming from, just doesnt seem fair.

Gods humble people are the onesWho take the time to prayWhose words to Him are silent onesThat they sincerely sayWho make no spectacle in churchFor everyone to seeHow saintly and devotionalTheir actions seem to beWhose prayers are not just Sunday prayersThat everyone can hearAs voices echo through the churchAnd tones are loud and clearBut who remember God at homeIn town and everywhereWith never an audienceTo heat their fevernet prayerAnd every morning, noon and nightThey surely are sincereBecause their thoughts and prayers are thoseThat only God can hear.By: James J.

How Does Suffering 3 Hours on a Cross Deliver People From Eternity in Hell?

ourchristiancountry — Sat, 07 Apr 2012 12:58:50 +0000

The answer is that the degree of suffering, indignity, reproach, degradation, and fall that Jesus endured is not simply determined temporally. And it’s not simply determined by the exquisiteness of the pain of a nail cutting through a nerve in your wrist.
