 Do you remember the instructions the air hostess gives when the flight takes off?  One of these instructions is about the oxygen masks coming down.  We are clearly instructed to help ourselves before we can help our neighbour.  This is the same instruction we have to follow when it comes to spiritual things.


Anyone who preaches or teaches can do an excellent job, but only the Holy Spirit can touch the hearts that listen and bring repentance or revelation.  Zechariah 4:6 So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty.  

Preparing for ministry takes a period of time, depending on how much we submit to the precious Holy Spirit of God.  We have to prepare ourselves by obeying the Holy Spirit and studying and meditating the Word of God.  When we are mature, able to divide the Word rightly, then we are almost there.  The Holy Spirit of God will guide us step by step and help us all the way to be what He wants us to be! We are responsible to respond.  We do not run ahead of Him or linger behind.  We walk with Him all the way.

Please see the link here below, of one of the messages, which helped me to get stronger in my inner man.
Sing and pray along with Benny Hinn and carefully receive what the Holy Spirit is imparting to us.

A book I read

The book is titled "The Good Earth" by Pearl S. Buck and is a true story of a farmer in China before the revolution.

The first wife was heart broken and she cried saying she had borne him sons...even though the terr...

Anvil Time

On God's anvil. Perhaps you've been there. Melted down. Formless. Undone. Placed on the anvil for ... reshaping? I know. I've been on it. It's rough. It's a spiritual slump, a famine. The fire goes out. Although the fire may flame for a moment, it soon disappears. We drift downward. Downward into the foggy valley of question, the misty lowland of discouragement. Motivation wanes. Desire is distant. Responsibilities are depressing. Passion? It slips out the door. Enthusiasm? Are you kidding? Anvil time. It can be caused by a death, a breakup, going broke, going prayerless. The light switch is flipped off and the room darkens. "All the thoughtful words of help and hope have all been nicely said. But I'm still hurting, wondering..." On the anvil. Brought face-to-face with God out of the utter realization that we have nowhere else to go. Jesus in the garden. Peter with a tear-streaked face. David after Bathsheba. Elijah and the ...

Defintions of Love

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year olds. "What does love mean?" The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. 1. When my grandma got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toe nails anymore. So my grandpa does it for her now all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love. Rebecca - age 8 2. When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouths.Billy - age 4 3. Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving Cologne and they go out and smell each other. Kari - age 5 4. Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs. Chrissy - age 6 5. Love is what makes you smile when you're tired. Terri - age 4 6. Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to mak...
