"The Offended"

The lesser is always offended by the greater.
The unsuccessful is always offended by the successful.
The hypocrite is always offended by the person of integrity.

What? The "offended" has to justify their lifestyle so they are always whining about something. The person that has inner peace, that speaks the truth and lives for God can sleep at night because they don't have anything to prove. "Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them."(Psalm 119:165) The Book that we base our beliefs on is called the Bible, the Inspired Word of God, it is the foundation upon which we stand therefore we always win!!

Christmas

Tonight as the Scott Boatner Family beds down on Christmas Eve, our whole family is under one roof. Matthew, Allison, William, John Scott, Micah, Jodi, Joseph, Kari and myself are all spending the night together to celebrate the Birth of Jesus Christ. Allison read the Christmas story to us about Jesus Christ being born and I prayed a Prophetic Prayer of Blessing over my family before going to sleep. We had a wonderful evening of food, fellowship and the sharing of gifts which represent the greatest gift of all, The Son of God!! In a few days we will step into 2014 and we anticipate great Blessings from God!!! It is our prayer that God will "open the floodgates of Heaven and let it rain" on us in the coming year.

"A place called Time"

You are either trapped in time or on a journey through a place called time. Time exist in our past, present or future. In which one of these places do you live? Are you moving forward? In your past there are moments that contain memories, good and bad, they both exist in all of our lives. Are you getting older but you still live in the memories of yesterday because you can't let something go? Maybe you live in the past because it looks better than your future? Your future should be filled with dreams, hopes and visions. Time just keeps, tick ticking away, so it may be about time to do an "about face" so you can move forward!

"Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended; but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,"(Philippians 3:13)

"God will get it done."

Whatever it is that you are struggling with, struggle no more, because God will do it for you. We must only trust Him and that compete trust in Him will call forth His supernatural power on your behalf. It's a done deal!!

"Does your future have a name?"

If you haven't named your future, then there's no telling where you will be in ten years. When you have children, you name them and you always call them by their name because its their identity. You could name your future BLESSED, HEALED, ANOINTED, JOYOUS, LOVING, USED BY GOD TO CHANGE THE WORLD!!! You need to name your future or someone else will with their criticism and they will not have your best interest at heart. God told Adam that the animals would be called whatever he CALLED or named them, that's why we call cows, cows still today. "even God, who quickeneth the dead, and CALLETH those things which be not as though they were."(Romans 4:17b)

Held captive by Fear and Anxiety !!

I don't know what you are facing but you feel like there is no way out!! The walls are closing in on you due to your fear and this is causing anxiety. Anxiety is a physical manifestation of a fear within your Spirit and Soul, your inner man. Have no Fear, God can bring you into a large place where there is new hope and plenty of breathing room!! Grace and Peace to you!!

Happy Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving Day, it's inception is rooted in a 3 day feast as the Pilgrims gathered to give thanks to the Almighty. They were in pursuit of freedom of religion while escaping government taxation and tyranny. I'm afraid we are electing people that are taking us back to what our founding fathers were fleeing. I am an American Christian, I have much to be thankful for, so I will give thanks in expectation that my God will have mercy on my country, family, friend and foe!!

"And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."(Joshua 24:15)

"In whom YE also trusted"

"In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise,"(Ephesians 1:13)


"In whom ye also trusted" "Whom" did you trust the day you got saved? Was it a certain kind of experience that you were seeking to please the religious group you were with? Was it the Preacher that preached that day? Was it the Water Baptism with the correct words spoken by the "right" person at the "right" location? Just exactly what happened the moment you met Jesus? Did you actually meet Jesus or did you just begin a journey of adapting to a lifestyle that was in the unwritten manual of the church group you were raised with from a child. Did you just go to a service with some friends and since they cried, you cried and called it salvation??? Salvation is when heaven and earth collide in the heart of man, when you put your trust into Jesus, not something or someone else but Jesus Christ Alone!! "After you heard the word of Truth", did you hear truth or a compelling to perform in the church circus? Did you need Jesus or did you just need to feel accepted by the people present? Salvation is a spiritual experience that puts you in the family of God and the Holy Spirit comes to live in you forever. "Sealed" in the Greek means to "stamp for security and preservation", by the Holy Spirit of Promise!! "Promise" means a pledge of divine assurance, do you have that? If you don't have that, I suggest you give your salvation experience a good looking over. You only get saved by Jesus, not 1-800- something or www. something but by Jesus Christ and by no other means can you be saved. "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else."(Isiaah 45:22) Just look to Jesus today, He is the Savior of the world. "Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,"(2 Timothy 1:9)

Veterans Day

Veterans Day is a day to honor America's Veterans for their patriotism, love of country and willingness to sacrifice for the common good of our country, the United States of America. We have two words that we use to express our gratitude, Thank You, but these words seem to fall so short of what's needed to honor this wonderful group of people that serve In our armed forces. May God Bless each one of you and your families in a way that only God can by His Supernatural Grace!!

"Lonely and looking for Love?"

If you can't save a relationship, you may just have to try and save yourself. Some people can't love at the level that you need to be loved. You need commitment, accountability, responsibility and tender, loving care but you are not important enough to he or she for them to give that to you. They are just to self-centered to give that much of themselves, sad but true! Don't sacrifice your dignity just to have someone in the house with you when you know deep down they don't have you in their heart. There are worse things than being alone.

"A Prayer for Mercy"

"That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith."(Galatians 3:14)

I believe that I am Blessed through JESUS CHRIST by faith in God's promise to save all that call on the Name of The Lord. I am in covenant with God the Father by the shed Blood of Jesus Christ therefore I am blessed and everything I do prospers!! (And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.(Psalm 1:3) I believe that God Almighty has an unique purpose for each one in His Kingdom! I ask you to join me today in calling that purpose forth into manifestation. We need a manifestation of the MOUNTAIN MOVING POWER OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD IN OUR NATION!!! We are created in the Image of God, to create He spoke, so lets speak... Our leaders are blind therefore they cannot see God's Vision for our country, they are deaf therefore they cannot hear the Voice of God!!!! We must call forth God's Purpose for America. "As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and CALLETH THOSE THINGS which be not as though they were;(Romans 4:17) "Our Heavenly and Holy Father, please forgive us of all our sins, they are far too many to list and they are great! Please wash us in the Blood of Your Son, Jesus, forgive us and Baptize us in Fire from Heaven!! Let the Power of The Holy Ghost flow through all of God's people to change the course of our nation. Have mercy upon us, our children and our future generations!! Our only Hope is in Your MERCY! "We believe there we speak", (2 Cor. 4:13) In the Mighty Name of Jesus we call forth Your Mercy, Grace, Power and Purpose today!! And God's people said, AMEN!!!

"The Hand of God"

"But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the hold."(11 Samuel 5:17)

God's touch made David a successful warrior because he had been anointed to win!! To anoint means to "rub in", God has touched you with His Divine Power!! Oh, satan's going to check your anointing for you to see if you know it's power. If you do not know its power, then how can you possiblely use it to bring Glory to God and Blessing to God's people. "For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries."(1 Corinthians 16:9) If you really think that you're not going to be tried and tested once you get God's Anointing on your life, you are sadly mistaken. Satan only fights those that have the potential to crush his kingdom of darkness, those that are a threat to him and his hypocritical phonies. People are only jealous of you when you have something they don't have nor will they ever have because their hearts are not in submission to God. To them it's just a game, a competition, something to make them look and feel special. Are you anointed for God and by God? Do you have any faith that can be tried or is church just something on the "good list" that you do? If you have the Faith of God in your heart and the Anointing of God on you, our enemy is coming to see what you've got, "because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world."(1John 4:4b) We must always remember that God is Greater than any enemy we could ever have at any time in our life. "Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil."(Matthew 4:1) Let him come, but he will drag away naked and empty handed-"Devil, You're not getting anything here!" "And the God of peace shall bruise satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen."(Romans 16:20). Devil, you've lost, it's over and you have LOST!! "And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded."(Acts 19:15-16) Satan came but he couldn't stay, he had to go in the Name of Jesus!! "The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways."(Deuteronomy 28:7). If we are to remain successful in the Kingdom of God we must go to bed with the blood of our enemy on our sword each night. God has special plans for those that serve Him faithfully. Your day will come!!!!

" No Worries"

"Be careful for nothing: But in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God. And the Peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."(Philippians 4:6-7)

Be careful for nothing: Don't be anxious about anything:....Hmn... Seriously, Can we do this? I mean this is the time of stress and anxiety!!! How is this even possible? Before you freak out on me, let's continue reading, "But in everything by Prayer". Have you really prayed about everything? Wait a minute, Have we prayed with a thankful heart? Are we thankful for what we already have or have we just taken it for granted. The verse commands us not to worry but to make our request known to God with thanksgiving and the Peace of God will keep (guard) our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. In the Bible, the Word Peace means whole, nothing missing, complete, etc.. Peace from God is more than a warm fuzzy feeling that we get when something happens to go right. Our hearts and minds are Protected by Peace, completely clothed by God Himself when we pray with thanksgiving. Whatever you are worrying about today, let it to go, lay it down and walk away from it. Cast all your care upon Him for He cares for YOU. (1 Pet. 5:7) Thanksgiving is an offering to God. You don't have to come before Him empty handed, bring Him the Gift of Thanks!!! Train your Spirit to "In everything give thanks" and the Garments of Peace will fall upon you from Heaven and take you beyond your natural understanding. STOP whatever you are doing right now and give God an offering of Thanksgiving and He will Bless you more than you can ever imagine. "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, (Ephesians 3:20) Have a Blessed Day!

"I can do"

"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."
(Philippians 4:13)

"I can do" Most of the time we read this verse in the Spirit of defense, after we've been attacked by some negative event that challenges us. What about using this verse in an offensive context? After all it's the offense that puts the points on the score board. We spend most of our lives in the defensive state of mind. We are always reacting to something instead of creating the initial action. You know, cause and effect, we are always reacting to something the enemy has hit us with. Why don't we start the day by declaring the cause, taking action to get our day off on the right foot. Let's get ahead of the curve by allowing the Word of God to control our Mind, Emotions and Spirit when we start our day. If we choose to leave the house and start our day without arming up with the Peace and Power of God, then we can only react because we have set ourselves up in the position of defense. We automatically loose the coin toss by choosing to play an out of balance game by only playing defense. We may manage to hold on to what we have but we never gain any ground. It's not likely that the defensive players will score points, unless the other team makes a mistake and I wouldn't risk my future on someone else's mistake. Train your mind to begin speaking the Word at the very second you are awake in the morning. To keep from waking your spouse, keep it silent and simple. "The Lord is my Shepard..."
(Ps. 23) Just commit some verses to memory, Ps 23, The Lords prayer, our devotional verse for today and when you wake up start whispering verses to put yourself on the offense. To start the day on the offense means that you have the ball and can make something happen. I call it "Can Do Christianity", you can do whatever you believe you can do. If you believe, you can achieve!! In the Name of Jesus, lets make something happen today.

We say we are hungry for change in our lives but the real question is;
"How sick are we of this moment we are trapped in, where nothing seems to ever change?"

"Looking for Hope"

"Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the Great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;" (Titus 2:13)

The Coming of Jesus!! As you read the New Testament you will notice that we are exhorted to look for the coming of Jesus. If you read the passage of scripture in which this verse is placed you'll find that we are reminded that the Grace of God has appeared to all men and we should live righteously in this present world. But in verse 13 the focus changes to an upward look. We are constantly looking within or without trying to make it through the day with some form of peace and sanity. I think we all agree that our lives are filled with stress and more unforeseen challenges than we care to mention. "The Blessed Hope and The Glorious Appearing!!!" Jesus could come at any minute, Rejoice! I have challenged myself to start my day by looking up instead of around, because today could be the day that the trumpet sounds and we meet Jesus in the air. When the trumpet sounds, we meet Jesus in the air, we get a a new body like His, then the judgement seat of Christ, the marriage supper of the Lamb and return to earth with Christ, after the 7 year tribulation period, at the actual second coming of The King of Kings to planet earth!! Looking for Him every morning will start my day with Hope, Peace and Joy. Because I've accepted Jesus as my Savior, I'm ready to meet Him, Are You?? Something to think about as you start each new day. If you don't know Him...
"Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else." (Isaiah 45:22)
If you do know Jesus, look to Him to calm the storms in your life!!

"Today"

Today is the first day of the rest of my life!!!! The word "Salvation" references our eternal salvation in its root meaning but it blossoms from there; It also means healing from sickness, deliverance from bondage, from hopelessness to hope, etc.... It means that we have been given by God Himself, an assured and gracious welcome into His "world without end"!!! All that is His, is ours, so today I believe and receive all that God has for me in my future. TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY IN THE REST OF MY LIFE!

"Transformed"

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2

" Be ye transformed". If you want to change something in your life then you'll have to change the way you think. Sometimes we say that we act or speak before we think but we really can't. Your thought process is what controls your words and your behavior. If you want to change your life, you have to completely change the way you think. Transformation begins in the mind. Paul said
"For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace." (Romans 8:6) If you think death, you will talk death and if you talk death then you are not only killing yourself but those that are around you. If you want life and peace then you will have to think life and peace. Do you want change the mood in your house? You'll have to change the mood in your mind. God created the earth by speaking, what are you creating with your words? We are created in the image of God, so what we say, we have and we speak what we think. The only way you can change your thinking is to re-program your mind with the Bible. You may need to change your intake, the Information that you allow into your ears and eyes. What are you putting into your mind that is controlling your mood and attitude? "Take heed what you hear"(Mark 4:24)
We are accountable to God for what we hear. What's the first thing you allow into your eye gate and ear gate in the mornings? Is it the hopeless, negative news broadcast or the powerful, pure, life changing Word of God? Take control of your life, it starts with your mind or someone else will continue controlling you. Who's in charge at your house and what is God's will for your life? If you want to know the will of God, you'll have to renew your mind to find that out and knowing God's will brings spiritual peace into your life.

"Power to the Faint"

"He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength." Isaiah 40:29

"He giveth power to the faint". Aren't you glad you're not on you're own? What if you had to walk life's journey all by yourself? Jesus is always near, when you whisper His Name, He says "Here I Am". (Isaiah 58:9) He is never far away because we have been "made nigh by the Blood of Jesus". (Ephesians 2:13) When the Apostle Paul was facing a very hard time in His life he received the Grace that He needed to keep moving forward. Are you facing issues that have worn you out, drained you of all your strength and you don't feel like you can make another step? Paul prayed three times about His "thorn in the flesh" and He passed the answer on to us.

"And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.". (11 Corinthians 12:9) The power of Jesus rests upon us to give us strength when we don't think there is any way we can conquer the problems we are facing. In the verse for today Isaiah is talking to those that "have NO might", no strength left within them. "Let the weak say, I am strong". (Joel 3:10). During the weak times in our life we must learn to confess that Jesus is our strength. Just like the day you got saved, you confessed Jesus to be your Savior and He saved you. Today if you will confess that He is your strength, He will be all you need Him to be. We need to get a revaluation that we can't always be the "hero"of the latest problem. We are worn out from straightening every picture on every wall. Some walls and pictures are not that important to life!

"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me".(Philippians 4:19) True Christianity is not always about what you do for God but what He does for you. It is not possible to be a Christian without Christ and it is not possible to stay strong without leaning on the giver of supernatural strength!!

"Diligent in Business"

"Diligent in Business"


Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men. Proverbs 22:29

"Diligence" Choosing your path and staying the course! There is nothing better that doing the right stuff and doing it consistently. Make God choices and stay the course. God has a plan for each of us, it basically will bring Glory to God and build us up. When we are faithful to Gods will for our lives, He will open up opportunities for us. First of all we need to expect opportunities, not walk around saying that good things will never happen to me. I hear people say all the time that all they have is bad luck, quit blaming your messed up life on everything that didn't go like you wished and people that didn't do as they should. (BTW, luck is not in the Bible and most people are human beings thereby being unreliable) As the verse says "Be diligent in your business", in other words, find out what your gifts are and do them. If you want great opportunities, start acting like you want them and believing for them to come. Let the walls come down that you've put up to protect yourself from being hurt, everyone is not out to get you. I know we've all been hurt at one time or another and we build protective walls. You know what, if we are not careful those same walls will keep opportunities out and begin to define who we are. Please don't let your hurts define who you are, sure they influence us, they change us, but we should let them make us better, not bitter. Bitterness is a wall built by past hurts that will stop us from seeing the great opportunities God has for us and bitterness is like a cancer that will eat you alive! Quit looking back and start looking ahead with hope and faith to the great future that God has for you. There are many passages of scripture that openly declare that our God can transform us from being last to first, dung hills to the palace, no more the tail but the head and make a desert become standing waters. Let your past go, get dressed for greatness because YOU are about to stand before Kings!!!

"The Will of God"

"And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."(Romans 12:2)



Don't allow your image of yourself be shaped by others. We need to allow God to shape us so that we become a product of "Divine Design". We must pursue His approval and by doing so, the disapproval of others won't have a negative impact on our lives. We are transformed by changing the way we think and as we are being transformed the Will of God will become clear to us. Follow Him, not them!!

"Labor Increases"

"Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase."(Proverbs 13:11)

Unfortunately, Charity to the wrong people enables the cycle of need. A lot of people in America have learned how to "work the system" to their benefit, the small business owner and the workforce is being worked by the "system" to support those that "work the system". Our forefathers would roll over in their graves if they knew we had become what they died to build. Please don't forget that we still have men and women dying for our country to protect our American Philosophy of Life.

"For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat."(2 Thessalonians 3:10)

"Women which Labored"

"And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life."(Philippians 4:3)

"A woman's work is never done". Truer words have never been spoken!! Where would the church be today without the power, determination and dedication of women? Since I have been preaching for 31 years, I can tell you where the church would be, way behind on its purpose and pretty empty on Sunday mornings. Our nursery ministry would be almost non existent, Sunday school would suffer a devastating blow and if you think about it, JESUS was born of a WOMAN!! Ladies, I salute you today for laboring in the Gospel ministry because it would not function to its fullest capacity without you. Our Media Ministry Director is a women that's labors in the social media world to enable our sermon videos to be watched all over the world as well as our devotional ministry. We get emails from all over the world from people that watch the sermons and comments on the devotions. She doesn't just post on FB but Twitter and other blog spots in the social media world. The potential reach is endless!! I thank you for watching the sermons and reading the devotions. A couple weeks ago I had a nice lady ask me if she could do anything to help with our ministry. In her email she shared that she didn't have any money to help support the ministry but she would love to do something for God in association with our ministry. I responded to her by making her aware that God would bless her desire to serve. I told her that she could sit at her computer and by sharing our ministry devotions, videos, etc...with her friends, she could change the world. It is a very subtle way to comfortably share the Gospel with the people that need to be saved, healed, encouraged, etc.. If you would like to join the ministry team just share our ministry each time we post something new, ask your friends to like our ministry FB page and ask them to put our app on their phones. Our FB page is, "Scott Boatner Ministries International". God is using our many ministry arms that flow from God's House/America to change our local community and many countries in the world. Our biggest influence outside the United States is in India where we have 35 Preachers/Pastors/Evangelist that are enabled by the God's House Church Family to preach, teach, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, etc... We praise God for every person that is involved in these life changing ministries. May God Bless each of you, male and female. (Links to smart phone app below). We need your prayer covering more than anything because the Spirit of God is using us in some very dark places. Thank You!!

"No Condemnation"

"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."(Romans 8:1)

"No Condemnation". If you are "in Christ" then you are a child of God, saved to the bone, washed in the Blood and sealed by the Holy Spirit!!
"In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,"(Ephesians 1:13) If you have believed the word of truth then you are a recipient of Salvation and Sealed by the Spirit!!! Bro Scott, what do I do when I fail God? First let me tell you what most people do, they condemn themselves, hate on themselves, beat themselves to a pulp until they are so distracted with a past failure that they can't focus on God's purpose for their lives and the devil has won! Does God's Word instruct you to do all that foolishness to yourself, to self-inflict punishment upon yourself for your sin? Jesus was punished for your sin so you are instructed in the Bible to REPENT OF YOUR SINS, not replay them over and over until your batteries run down in your mind. "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to FORGIVE us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."(1 John 1:8-9). If you feel like a failure today, get up on your feet, dust yourself off and believe that you are a child of the King with a purpose!!
God has great plans for all of us so lets not let self-condemnation take the joy out of serving God. If you sin, I promise you that the Holy Ghost will let you know in a very clear voice so you will not be in the dark but be able to repent with understanding so you can move on with your life in Jesus!!

The Eighth Month, the birth month of my wife and two sons.

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."(2 Corinthians 5:17)

If you study the Bible from cover to cover several times you will begin to notice that God puts emphasis on certain numbers. For instance 5 is the number of grace, 6 is the number of man, 7 is God's number for perfection and 8 is the number of new beginnings. August is the 8th month and 8 being the number of new beginnings is so true in our lives. Kari and I were married on Saturday the 15th of August 1981.The electricity went off that day about 20 minutes prior to the service. It got so hot that the wedding flowers begin to wilt and the candles started to lean over due to extreme heat in the church. We got ready to leave on our honeymoon and her new mustang wouldn't crank so we went on our honey moon in my brothers hunting/fishing long wheel base ford truck with a camper shell on back to boot. The saying, "Born in the Fire and can't stand the smoke" is very fitting for our beginning. Eight days after our first wedding anniversary on the 23rd of August 1982 Matthew was born and at his first church service, September the 9th, I surrendered to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Then 5 years later on August 17th, 1987 Micah was born and Kari's birthday is today, August 26th. Happy Birthday, Kari, I love you more each day!! May your birthday be filled with many blessings and may the cycle of new beginnings that God started in 1981 continue this month. It is our month of new blessings and as your husband I speak blessings to you on your birthday!!

And the enemies flee;

The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. Deuteronomy 28:7

They may come, but they can't stay!!! The Lord will smite all our enemies before our face. When the devil comes against you, he better be looking for a way out because he has got to go. We are MORE than conquerors in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:37) In other words, we are not going to just win, but we are taking the game ball home. Game over! The wicked will fall and the Righteous shall Rise. It's time we start acting like winners instead of losers, victors instead of VICTIMS. Memorize the verse of the day and gain some confidence about your life. You get confidence by knowing that God is on your side. "If God be for us, who can be against us" (Romans 8:31) Read the prophetic scriptures and compare today's headlines, the Bible is being fulfilled before our eyes. All the nations of the earth are ramping up their military not even knowing that they are getting ready to march to Jerusalem. After the Blood Washed Church of Jesus Christ is caught away to meet Him in the air, this momentous move by Jesus will mark the onset of the 7 year tribulation. At the end of that time period, the armies of the East, North and South will start marching to a valley where they will meet the King of Kings. Jesus Christ will meet them there as He steps down on the Mount from which He ascended. We will be with Him riding white horses and our Savior will set up His kingdom for a thousand years. All of our enemies shall be smitten before our face and a table shall be prepared for us. (PS 23:5) Jesus is not only a Warrior in our future but our Warrior for today. He lives in us today and will win every battle we face. Believe it, it's a done deal!!!! "In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:"(Ephesians 1:11)

A Statement of Vision and Purpose!!

"Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations."(Jeremiah 1:5)
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."(Jeremiah 29:11)

Let this be your declaration today!
Father God of Heaven and Earth! By Faith I believe that you have called me according to your divine purpose. I believe that, before I was conceived, I had a planned purpose in Your kingdom that must be fulfilled. As Jesus prayed two thousand years ago, "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."(Matthew 6:10) I believe that today is the day for which I was born, there is a rumbling in the heavens and a breath from God in the earth! I, the called of God, will change the world by the power of the Holy Spirit in the Name of Jesus Christ. It was spoken by Christ Himself that I would do "greater works" in the earth. (Jn 14:12) The true Church is hearing the sound of rain in the land and I am thirsty for all of YOU, God! I am not interested in religion but a movement of God such as the world has never seen. I will be a part of the latter rain in the last days harvest of mankind. I will be provided the resources to help fund this movement in all nations. All nations will see Your glory and know that You are God!
"And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it."(Isaiah 40:5)
God, You have promised manifested power for this time and I will be in the midst of the outpouring of Your Glory. Let it begin today, remove all hindrances that are blocking my path, let them be ground to powder at this very moment. I declare this in THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, AMEN!! "They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the LORD, but he answered them not. Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets."(Psalm 18:41-42)

"Honour to whom Honour is due"

"Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour."
(Romans 13:7)

The pictures we posted yesterday were pictures of children that live in mud huts along the river in the south eastern jungles of India. After spending several days in the jungle with our lead Pastor I gave him permission to follow his spirit as to the use of any money we send him. You may ask how I could feel comfortable giving him that kind of freedom. I've sat where he sits, ate what little he eats, slept where he sleeps, preached where he preaches and walked in his shoes for several days, believe me, the sacrifice they make for Jesus Christ is beyond human comprehension. The people that live in the mud/thatch huts by the river lose everything they can't carry in their hands once a year during the rainy season when their homes are washed away. I know you are wondering why they build the mud huts back every year. It's the only place they have to call their own. It's not really theirs but since it has no value or use of any kind due to the rainy season, they get to live there except during the rainy season at which time they are displaced or wandering homeless, hungry and hopeless with nothing but the clothes on their back. Now I ask you, WWJD? We wear shirts, jewelry, etc with that acronym on it but how often do we give the only money we have to those that have less than nothing. Most of our pastors have some type of housing. Let me explain housing in this part of India. If you are blessed enough to have a home, it has no water, no refrigerator, no stove, no a/c, just a single light bulb dangling from the ceiling but you can go outside, pump some water in a bucket and take a bath if its not during the drought, at which time the well has no water. Your home there would be about 20 feet by 20 feet with four generations living under one roof sleeping on the floor. Since its not a Christian nation, preaching the Gospel is not exactly the safest thing you can do. According to the "Voice of the Martyrs" web site 171,000 Christians per year are brutally murdered in the world because they call Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior. The area in which we minister, the area in which these pictures were taken, is called a "hotspot". A hotspot is a geographical location where people are killed for believing in Jesus Christ. Please go to "Voice of the Martyrs" website and search India, you will need to be emotionally prepared for what you are going to read. As I stated earlier, I have been there, moved from safe house to safe house, walking through the jungle in the dark for safety, you have no idea how you need to pray for these amazing Heroes of Faith!!I. If you will go to my ministry Facebook page, Scott Boatner Ministries International, you will see a pic of me in dark shades with a thatch hut behind me. In this picture I was staring down a group of very unfriendly non-Christian people that were not thrilled by our baptismal service. (People have asked me about my solemn expression in this photo, thats my "Intimidate the enemy face") The hut behind me is a hut that is now washed away by the floods. When God's House wired money to the Pastors in India last week we sent them extra for their children's school supplies but once they received their money all the Pastoral families voted unanimously to buy food and clothes for the river children. It's amazing how people who have nothing, gives what has been given to them, to those who have less than nothing!! I'm blown away by my faith heroes in India. To the 35 Pastors in India that I personally ordained to preach the Gospel, I honor you! You are once again shining lights in a dark world. But Bro Scott, what are you going to do about the Pastors children's school supplies that are under your watch care? We will send them some more money, God will provide!!!

"My Sin"

What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

For my pardon, this I see,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For my cleansing this my plea,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Nothing can for sin atone,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
Naught of good that I have done,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

This is all my hope and peace,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
This is all my righteousness,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Now by this I'll overcome—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
Now by this I'll reach my home—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Glory! Glory! This I sing—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus,
All my praise for this I bring—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Robert Lowry 1876

"A Prophetic Word to the Body of Christ"

This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.(Psalm 24:6)

"The Psalm 24 Generation" As God Almighty looks upon us, because of our religious upbringings, we assume he's looking at our church buildings, our church clothes or maybe listening to our church lingo and that He is so impressed by our "churchy ways" that He's going to give all of us the blue ribbon. He is urging us to look at ourselves, too look within, to look at our present location and where we are headed as a nation of people. He desires that we pray, "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as I is in heaven". How often do we pray those exact words as commanded by Jesus Christ Himself? The prophetic looks to the future, so please join me in the Spirit for a moment, what do you see? Where will we be in ten years? The choices you make today, while your child is 8, will have an extreme impact on your child over the next ten years of life's journey because they will be 18 in 10 years. Who will thy vote for in our government elections? What will those elected officials believe concerning righteousness and where will our choices today ultimately propel us in just 10 short years? I ask you, "Do you want to see God"? "Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation."(Psalm 24:3-5) Are we ascending up the holy mountain of God or are we declining into moral decay while sitting on church pews in a building that is clean swept but empty? Are we hoping that our dramatic tears will soothe our rotten lifestyles as we attend one our traditional gatherings we call church? Is God's Spirit touching us deep within by His Word or do we just like the emotion that is brought forth by our favorite song ? We must desire to be the GENERATION THAT SEES GOD do things that will reshape our lives forever not just an emotional moment that is fleeting. "Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in." (Psalm 24:7-9)
Our Heavenly Father, Let us see what you see, let us feel what you feel, let us know what you know and most of all, "Be the KING OF GLORY and COME IN", into our days, nights, hours and moments of time that we may know you in all of your power, glory and honor forever, AMEN!!

"Overcoming the Guilt of not Trusting"

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11

We are in a war!!! Good vs evil, Light vs darkness, God vs satan... From time to time, we feel like we are in a battle for our lives. It seems like no matter what you do, there will be attacks that we don't see coming. Being in the ministry, I feel like I go from one battle to another..... It's tiring.... I was sharing my heart with The Lord that I was trying to trust Him BUT I was struggling to find that "Trust in Him" I needed. I beat myself up with guilt because I felt the guilt of not trusting. Jesus sweetly spoke to me" Scott, your not doubting, just tired ". When I hear a word in my Spirit, I always go to the scriptures to find it there to validate it.
Follow this with Paul and young Pastor, Timothy.
Paul references Timothy's stomach issues in 1 Tim 5:23, his fear in 2 Tim 1:7' then assures Timothy in 2 Tim 2:13 that even when we are not "all that"' God is always " ALL THAT"!!!!! Paul was about to be martyred, Timothy was sick, anxious and tired. Don't beat yourself up today for not having it all together, you may just be tired. Today is the first day of the rest of my life and I've figured out that I'm not going to always have it all together so I'll do my best to lean on Jesus. I suggest you do the same.

"Not many Fathers".

"Not many Fathers".


For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.
1 Cor. 4:15

" not many Fathers"... Apostle Paul's concern in this situation is that we have a lot of "instructors", people telling us what to do but they may not be sincerely passionate about our welfare and since are not sincere they could not possibly know what's best for us in the future. I agree, there is always plenty of people that can tell you exactly how to handle whatever you are dealing with, even though they have never been where you are. Now Fathers on the other hand, love their children, they care, they feel the pain and sorrow of their sons and daughters. But when a nation, church, business, etc.... Has leadership that care more about themselves than their followers,......HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!!!
When Paul visited the churches he comforted them as a Father comforts His children. (1 Thess. 2:11). We need leadership that will nurture us, lead us, stand for us as a Father would instead of burdening us down with more HOPELESSNESS, FEAR AND NEGATIVITY, trust me, we have plenty of that junk!! Our pulpits are filled with a Religious Version of the latest braking negative news story. Our only Hope is the Word of God,(Ps 107:20), it needs to be presented from the White House to the Church House!!!! Forgive me for my worldly analogy, but we need to get back to the BASICS of LIFE. (Waylon &Willie) May the Spirit of The Heavenly Father be upon all of us so we can begin to nurture one another back to health, peace and blessing. Let's change the direction of our Familys, Churches and Nation, one house at a time, by starting at our own doorstep. If we start today, I wonder how far along we will be in one year, I will if you will.....

"Work with your own hands"

"Work with your own hands"

"And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing."(1 Thessalonians 4:11-12)

"work with your hands". The work ethic is something that is very important for you to practice and pass on to your children. I am aware that there are a lot of hard working people in our country that have helped make it great. But I'm also aware that there is a certain group of people that have figured out how to mis-use the system and get the Government to pay them for not working when they are actually able to do so. When you take from those that work (taxes) and give to those that won't work, when they are able to work; Houston, We have a problem! As a matter of fact, Apostle Paul said if you don't work, you don't eat. "For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat."(2 Thessalonians 3:10). God will bless you if you get a job and make your money by working with your hands. "Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase."(Proverbs 13:11)
If you goof off at work on your boss's time then you are stealing his money. You may say, Bro Scott, he doesn't pay me what I'm worth, well get you a job that pays you what you are worth but until then, quit stealing money from your present place of employment. If they are good enough to give you a job then be good enough to give them an honest day's work. If you are at a low paying job then be faithful and I promise that God will honor you by giving you a better job. My work philosophy has always been that some money was better than no money. Have you ever thought that your skill sets may not be as valuable as you think? Has it ever occurred to you that your attitude of " I'm invaluable" keeps you from finding the job that suits you. I know a lot of you think that all business owners are rich and can afford to pay you double wages. That may be true in some cases, but I promise you that all business owners are not rich, some are barely keeping their doors open. In order to get this country back on track we must start with the foundational mentality of get a job, go to work faithfully, tithe your payday and Trust God to Bless your efforts. As an American Citizen, I plead with you to do whatever job you have with a good attitude and we will see God start to turn our country around. The backbone of any economy is it's work force, join the team today. "In all labour there is profit;" (Proverbs 14:23)

"Go YE Therefore"

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:"(Matthew 28:19)

"Go" To all the Preachers and their families that have left their homes to go to a foreign land to tell people about Jesus; To the unknown serving in forgotten places where without you they wouldn't have a witness. I don't know what to say to you but I wish you could see through the wireless world of technology and see the tears that are flooding down my face in your honor!! Ladies and Gentlemen, The Boatner's salute you because I know how forgotten you must feel at times, how you must miss your families, how you privately cry yourself to sleep some nights because you miss your homeland. You have a call on your life that others don't have, a call that you love, but sometimes, not so much, because of the pain of loneliness. I know I'm being brutally honest but I want you to know that there is a group of people in Philadelphia, MS-USA called "God's House" and the Scott Boatner Ministries International Family salute You!! We love, respect and honor you today for what you do for Jesus. Having been to a very "hotspot" in a third world country, so I know a little bit about how you feel. I'm personally sorry for not praying enough on your behalf, please forgive me? Before long I'll enter my 4th decade of ministry and I want to have a better grasp of the world not just the 4 walls of our comfortable American churches. Although I feel I'm called to the American church to inspire them to rise to the challenge of the moment. I fully believe there are enough resources in America to evangelize the World. Don't worry I'm not asking you for your money, I'll let God do that work in your life and I know you'll listen to His Voice. It's just my prayer that God use me and put the resources in my life that I need to do my part. Scott Boatner Ministries International has invitations from cities in Pakistan, Uganda and Kenya, Africa, the needs are overwhelming. They are hungry for help to get ministries birthed in their countries. I want to believe more, do more, be more and help enable other ministries to see the call of God on their lives fulfilled. Jesus is coming soon, we have a lot to do but if we all come together as one, I have no doubt that all of God's Plans for us will be done on time. So give yourself a knuckle bump from our ministry to yours, you deserve it and today we honor you for your great service. We love You!

I Believe,
Scott L. Boatner
Please share with the people you know serving on foreign soil.

"Rejoice"

"Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice."(Phillipians 4;4)

"Rejoice". It's a choice! I strongly suggest that you make it everyday of your life. The only way you can enjoy each day to its fullest is to choose to Rejoice "in the Lord". We must be aware of the Biblical Truth that our Joy comes from the Lord. The word in the Greek means "to be cheerful and calmly happy", very good stuff that we need on a daily basis. BTW, if you read the verse in context, you'll notice it's not a suggestion but a command. So choose to obey the Bible and "Rejoice in the Lord", because that's what the followers of Jesus Christ do. Earlier in this book the Apostle Paul tells us to; "Do all things without murmurings and disputings:"(Phillipians 2:14) As a Preacher, I'm very confident that if we "followers of Christ", did less complaining, whining and more Rejoicing, things might be better around the home front. As a Christian, I know beyond any shadow of a doubt that recent events in my life have made very ashamed of all my murmuring. I willingly choose to "Rejoice in the Lord". It's an active choice of my human will that God Himself gave me when He formed me in my mothers womb. God has Soveriegnly designed plans and purposes for all of our lives but He included a feature that allows us to participate in those plans to bring an expected end. "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."(Jeremiah 29:11). The Apostle Paul, in very trying circumstances, said, " I think myself Happy", unless you have ever been faced with the possibility of loosing your life simply because you believe in Jesus, you cannot possibly understand to the fullest of what Paul was talking about in Acts. But even though most Christians have never been in that situation, you still face challenges each day that steal your JOY! Well, for now, "It is what it is" and you might as well choose to Rejoice "IN" the Lord until He changes you or your circumstances. All things that God is involved in, change, so just TRUST HIM for a little while longer and you will see Him move on your behalf. "REJOICE"

"The Path to Honour"

"The Path to Honour"

"Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured."(Proverbs 13:18)

"Regardeth Reproof" Learning to listen is a very valuable lesson in ones life. Admittedly, we hear things that sting a bit but it's up to us what we do with the new revelation in our lives. If the people in our lives really love us, they will tell us the truth. I'm sure some of our friends that we receive councel from could use a little more tact in their speech at times. The word "Reproof" in this text means to correct, so we must categorize the people in our lives that are wanting to correct us in love or those that are simply just judging us. If you are going to grow in Christ, you will have to make an active choice of your will to allow your spirit to be reproved. There is one safeguard that I would suggest you put in place in your spirit before you go and get all submissive. Beware of people that feel they have been placed on earth as God's gift to correct humanity, especially you. But please be aware that God rewards those that respond to His reproof by way of His Word, His Spirit or by one of His servants. "Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you."(Proverbs 1:23) When God calls us to turn back and we turn, we will be blessed!! If we refuse to listen to His counsel and do not heed His warning we are headed down a destructive path that will have consequences beyond anything you can imagine. "They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices."(Proverbs 1:30-31) In our verse for today we are promised honor if we regard His reproof. The level of reproof is based upon the level of correction needed. Sometime a parent may yell loudly at a child if they are stepping in front of a car but only whisper in other circumstances. God has been speaking to the Boatner Family about our future and revising our vision. God does this by revealing things to us by His Word, His Spirit and sometime circumstances can speak to us to tweak our course. Please don't refuse His instruction but listen to Him thereby being honored and blessed!!

"It's been long enough"

"The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: Turn you, and take your journey, and go....."Deuteronomy 1:6-7a

There are times when God challenges us to move forward in our spiritual journey. It's a moment in time when a life choice must be made by simply saying, OK. God, I'm all yours and I agree, we've looked at this mountain long enough!!

"Whosoever Hath"

"Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have."(Luke 8:18)

"Whosoever hath" In this verse there are two different groups of people represented, those that have and those that have not!! Jesus says that if you have, then you will be given more but if you don't have, what you don't have will be taken away. If you will look closely at the verse you'll see the words "seemeth to have", because we assume people have a good heart because they look good on the outside. We make the mistake of thinking that just because someone has something in their hands that it's in their hearts to use it for God if they attend church. Jesus makes it very clear that He knows the difference between service with heart and service without heart. If God has blessed your hands with talents and gifts to use for Him but you don't have the passion to do so, you will have it taken away. You will look down one day and what you once had will be gone because you never had the passion in your heart to use it for the Kingdom. "Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath."(Matthew 25:18-29). You will look up one day and what you once did for the advancement of the Kingdom of God, someone else will be doing, because you didn't appreciate what you had!! You will be lonely, empty, and regretting the years you missed. Those of you that have your hands to the plow and you have plowing in your heart, to you more will be given in ABUNDANCE!! The God of the harvest will make sure you are blessed by the harvest when the crop comes in and it WILL come, just keep plowing!! GOD IS FAITHFUL!!

"Deliberate or Random"

"The hand of the diligent shall bear rule..." Proverbs 12:24a

What if sunrise was some random event? It was just random everyday, rather than a consistent Law of the Universe that we can count on every morning of our life. So many of us just live our lives in "Random Mode", just wherever the winds of life take me today. Have you ever thought about the word deliberate? I mean, you take charge of your day, by simply being aware that one of your actions causes a reaction somewhere else on the planet that will involve the lives of others. Let's do deliberate not random!!! Now don't get all out of balance and legalistic which will remove all the joy out of your life. Always be deliberate in "LIFE CHOICES!! However deliberately set aside some time for yourself, you'll be amazed at the power and self-confidence this will give you. Smart, Succesful, Super Accomplished People never do random, they always do Deliberate!!! Are your days deliberate or random?? Do you have a plan for your life? What will you be doing a year from now? Rearrange the furniture of your mind from random to deliberate and I promise you that twelve months from now the quality of your life will be better than today!!!! God has plans for you, otherwise you wouldn't be reading this...... He doesn't do random!!!

"Know what is Good"

"Know what is Good"


"For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat. Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good."(Job 34:3-4)

"Know what is good". We should be raised in a church that teaches us to know good but in many cases the definition of "good" is confusing, especially in the religious world. In the "World of Religions", good is defined by what someone says you have to do or say this year to be a part of their group. Some people want acceptance so bad that they will almost do anything they are told to be allowed into the "click" or just simply acknowledged by certain people. After being in ministry for several years you begin to notice that religious people go through fads just like the secular system. True Christianity is not a passing fad that changes every few years but a constant and consistent relationship with Jesus Christ that is eternally secured by the Blood of Jesus Christ. "Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us."(Hebrews 9:12)
Please notice the word "eternal" in this verse, if its eternal, it last forever without changes of any kind. In order to "know good", you must know the Word of God. I'm amazed at the things people do in the Church at large and call it good. You can call a butterfly a billy goat but it doesn't make a butterfly a billy goat. The Bible clearly defines what is good and we should obtain our knowledge of good from the Word. If you are taught to do certain things to please your religious group then you change groups and they tell you something else is good, in fact what they told you was bad, if you do not know your scriptures, you are going to be as confused as a termite in a yo-yo. Elihu, in the book of Job says we need to know good ourselves!! The unfortunate conclusion of this type of "bounce around" church experience is that you will not have a clue what God expects of you. I talk with so many people that assume they have completely failed God because someone told them so. Are you going to let someone else dictate your life or you going to let the Bible speak into your life?
"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."(John 8:32) The choice is yours......

"Our Children"

"Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth."(Proverbs 7:24)

"Our children are coming to Jesus". God's House is a church where our children feel the drawing of the Holy Spirit and are coming to Jesus. It's amazing to watch each child's personality come into play as they ask Jesus to be their Savior. A CHILD CAN HEAR THE VOICE OF GOD!!! Their lives are free of baggage, so they are easily introduced to Jesus. I'm very honored to be the Preacher at a congregation where children so freely come to Jesus. Most of them have heard me preach since they were babies and I've, with much simplicity explained to them, that it is Jesus that saves them. They know that it's not a church building, a walk down an isle, not water baptism nor a host of other complicated things that some poor children are told they must do to have Jesus in their hearts. It's sad that some children sit in church, Sunday after Sunday, listening to dead men preach dead sermons that does nothing but confuse them. It is Jesus alone that washes our sin away. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."(Acts 4:12) We have several under the age of 15 that are anxiously awaiting their day of water baptism. Thank You Jesus for Your Presence that is stirring our young people.

"Jesus Wept"

"Jesus wept."(John 11:35)

"Jesus Wept". I've often wondered what all Jesus was weeping over on this very sad and emotional day. It is obvious the He was very upset over the death of His close friend Lazarus but He had prophesied that his death was for the Glory of God. "When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby."(John 11:4) Since Jesus was the Son of God, Virgin born - God in the flesh, the manifestation of The Mystery of Godliness, Emmanuel-God dwelling among us!! What did He feel that day? "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory."(1 Timothy 3:16). I'm sure He saw more that day than the death of one friend that troubled Him given the truth that He was the All-Knowing, All-Seeing God among men. Did He see the sin curse in action, was He troubled by the consequences of the spirit of death among the whole human race? We make choices daily, these choices produce life or death spiritually. The choices we make may bring immediate results and some may take awhile to manifest but they too will rise to the light. "I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: "(Deuteronomy 30:19) Jesus wept over us that day, He wept over our pain, our hurts, our toxic memories, our selfish decisions that affect others. He saw all things that day that would cause us to suffer, whether it was a product of this sin cursed earth or a product of our own depravity. Jesus Christ saw US that day and HE WEPT over us!!! Jesus lost a friend that day, have you experienced a loss lately of any kind? It doesn't have to be a death, loss comes in many ways but it always brings pain, emotional trauma and suffering of some kind. Is it bankruptcy, divorce, a rebellious child or maybe a spouse that doesn't see what he or she is doing to your wonderful family? The news of Lazarus was an event in Jesus life, what news have you gotten lately that has blown you out of the water? What are you troubled about at this moment? What are you weeping over right now? Always remember that Jesus is weeping with you!!
He loves you more than you will ever know!

"In the Distance"

"Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you THINGS TO COME."(John 16:13)

It's dark out but I've got the light so I'll find my way through the jungle of danger and demons. They do exist but God is greater than all the monsters under my bed!! Occasionally a skeleton from my past pops up his head up but God handles them too!! To have No fear is my desire and that's going pretty well but being confused by the human race that my friend Jesus died for is a never ending process. Talking about Jesus one moment and drinking a Budweiser the next is confusing to me. Hypocrisy in the House of God is epidemic in our game we call Church in America. May I say we have taken our freedom and wealth for granted so it is ever so slowly destroying us. I don't want to finish the race old, cold and cynical. God keep my vision and mission clear, blind me from all the distractions. I must finish the race, complete my course and finish the work given me.... So I will continue into the distance till journeys end!

"Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;"(1 Peter 1:13)

"The Difference"

Luk 11:52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.

Know it Alls!!! Your not going and you don't want anyone else to go. It appears to be the goal in your life to hinder not help. It's a type of insanity, a spiritual, religious insanity, if you please!! Something about you feeds on this type destruction because you do not have a relationship with Jesus Christ. Your relationships with other people are just for the perverted purpose of draining the spiritual life out of them so they will be degraded to your level because you know deep down that you cannot rise to theirs.... If you do help others it's actually for show to cover up the real you. You can be so entrenched with this evil spirit that the only thing that makes you uncomfortable and nervous of discovery is the Un-cut raw VOICE of God!! The Voice that shakes mountains, it, you cannot be around. You must destroy the messenger to stop the Voice before it exposes you for what and who you really are, you fear that happening constantly.

"Blessed are they that Mourn"

"Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted."(Matthew 5:4)

"They that Mourn". The word "mourn" means to grieve due to loss, most of the time, the loss of the life of a loved one. We are created in the image of God so therefore we love deeply and we are very connected to those in our family/friend circle. We are so much like our Creator that we are emotional over the pain and suffering of people we hear about that we don't even know personally. Unfortunately mourning the loss of loved ones is as much a part of life as life itself. As a Pastor, one of the things that goes with the calling of Ministry, is trying to comfort those that are mourning the loss of a loved one. From the standpoint of a Minister, it begins with a phone call, the news of an elderly person has passed but is in a better place, or someone that has poor health has had a heart attack and didn't make it. The worst possible phone call you can get as a Pastor is that someone in your church has lost a child. The sadness associated with the loss of a child is beyond my personal comprehension because I've personally never lost a child. Since I am a Pastor, I comfort people that go through all kind of hardships, tragedies and loss. My wife and I have two sons that have given us two wonderful daughter-n-loves and three angelic grandsons. We have never experienced such a horrific loss as that of a child, so to help us better comfort those that have lost children, we sat and talked with two families that had each suffered this horrific experience. The two senior citizen family's that we talked to, even though it has been many years since their loss could recant every detail. As we listened to their stories unfold we realized that all we could do to comfort those that lose children unexpectedly, is cry with them, pray with them, embrace them and let them feel our love. Mourning the loss of someone that you love more than life itself is a process that we can only get through with the mercy and grace of God. It is during these times that we, God's children, should stand so close to our friends that we can catch them if they fall. "Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy."(Matthew 5:7). The Mercy of God is what gets all of us through the dark days of life and if you live on this planet long enough, you will need mercy from God and your fellow citizens. When we find ourselves in these dark times, the more people we have around us the more strength we feel because there is strength in numbers. "Two are better than one; For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up."(Ecclesiastes 4:9a-10) If someone near you is hurting today, reach out your hand, you never know when you may need theirs. And may God protect us all in Jesus' name!!!

"Jesus is the Savior of the World"

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."(John 14:6)

"The Truth" A great man said, "Bury a lie and it will rot but bury the Truth and it will Rise"! God is moving in the earth and the momentum of the Latter Rain cannot be stopped because it is by divine design. There are politicians that bring about unjust laws in our land but God's Law is eternal and cannot be governed. There are religious people that try to hinder the work of the Holy Spirit but they too shall fail. "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves."(Matthew 23:15). Jesus is the King of Kings and The Lord of Lords, every knee shall bow and every mouth shall confess! "For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God."(Romans 14:11-12). The Truth will always rise to the top and every lie of the devil shall rot. You can't stop the movement of Jesus because He is the Way, The Truth and the Life! I'm told that between 20,000 and 30,000 people get saved in China every 24 hours. In India, just south of China in April I personal saw thousands get saved, healed and delivered. In the church that I Pastor, we are seeing our children come to Christ as the Holy Spirit draws them to Christ and are being Baptized!! The movement of God is too great and you cannot stop it, you will just be run over by its power. "And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder."(Matthew 21:44) The Warriors of God cannot be stopped, take one down and 10 more will take his or her place. It's a good feeling to know that your team cannot be defeated!!! The Truth marches on to victory!!! I suggest you join the winning team today, by calling on Jesus!! He awaits your call....

"Spiritual Warfare"

"Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."(Ephesians 6:13)

"The Evil Day". The Bible is filled with reasons bad things happen to good people. I know, you have been taught all your life that we don't know why and God has a reason for "allowing" bad things to happen. Some time ago I preached a series of sermons on "Why bad things happens to good people". My text verse was; "As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come."(Proverbs 26:2) The "curse causeless shall not come", in other words, there are reasons for every action on the planet. For instance, sowing and reaping, satanic attacks, speaking death over your life with words of hopelessness rather than words of hope and life, etc... "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."(Proverbs 18:21) The list of reasons is quite a lengthy one if you will actually read the Bible for yourself rather than just listening to someone else's opinion. It is what it is, we live on a sin cursed earth that is filled with darkness and evil people that are controlled by an evil spirit. "The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good."(Proverbs 15:3) We are faced with both, evil and good, on the earth at all times. We must be wise and avoid evil if it's obvious but sometime we just don't see it coming. What can we do about surprise attacks? There are some things that we have no way of knowing about, so avoiding them is not an option? "The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul."(Psalm 121:7). We walk by faith and not by sight so we must trust The Lord at all times, even on the good days. In an instant, you can be blindsided and a good day can turn into a nightmare before you know what has happened. It can happen so fast and tragically that regaining the loss can almost be impossible. According to the Apostle Paul, we need to be clothed in God's armour at all times for protection from evil. The Psalmist declared that " There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways."(Psalm 91:10-11). Give your ways and days to The Lord, He has you in His hands!!
