Our Greatest Regret....
Our greatest regret will be the one we could've fixed but we let time slip away! It usually involves someone we were once very close too, but NOW they are gone. NOW you stand at the grave until the last prayer is prayed, the coffin is carefully lowered into the earth, the last shovel of dirt is placed and the dirt is nicely dressed. To the men that handle this task ever so gracefully it's another sacred moment finished. But to you, it begins a new era of life. You ask yourself how am I going to live with this all alone because that person on this one way street is gone from the life we shared in which you NOW reside, alone.
As they say "Life goes on" but not really???
NOW the words "I'm sorry" just sit like a heavy weight on your chest, a fog that lingers!!! The weight of this unique Fog has a smothering sensation because you never spoke those two simple words!!!... "I'm Sorry"......or let's talk it out all the way until it is done!!
The weight will not die with that person, it will just get heavier!! Forgiveness is actually for you, not them. If someone hurts you but they never acknowledge your pain, you have to just release them in your Spirit and push through the pain.
"Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad." (Proverbs 12:25 KJV)

No Fear!!!
A messenger comes into the crowd with haste and says to the ruler of the synagogue;
"Thy daughter is dead, don't trouble the Master"
In a fraction of a second Jesus turns and says;
"Be not afraid, Only Believe."(Mark 5:36-37)

NOW......the Word for 2021......
Every year I seek the Lord for a verse of scripture for the year!! A verse that we as a church and ministry family can read and agree on United as one!!! This year God didn't give me that special verse until today. It came in one word, NOW!! The word "NOW" has been in my SPIRIT for a few weeks but today God spoke it solid and strong to my SPIRIT!!
The word "NOW" is used in the Bible 1356 times in 1321 verses, Old and New Testament combined. The main verse that I feel led to use for our verse is;
"NOW FAITH IS the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."(Hebrews 11:1 KJV)
Our Faith is more powerful and real than we are aware at times. Our present trials can impair our vision depending on the variables and the factors that control those variables. This year, 2020, has been one of the most unique if not the most unique of my lifetime. It has been a trying year for most to the point that you can feel the heavy weight of the painful uncertainties that seem to have been unleashed in our country and the entire world.
John the Baptist Mother, Elisabeth, was barren but she and her husband, Zacharias had believed God for a baby. Unfortunately many years passed and still no baby but one day Zacharias was in the Temple of God fulfilling his duties as a Priest when an Angel appeared unto him.
"But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: FOR THY PRAYER IS HEARD; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John." (Luke 1:13 KJV)
Even though the Angel said "Thy prayer is heard" Zacharias ask "How"? Zacharias and Elisabeth had agreed, prayed and believed somewhere in their past because the Angel said "thy prayer is heard"! However Zacharias allowed the time lapse from that moment of solid faith to cause him to question his faith and purpose. If God's Angel that stands in the Presence of God says "John" is coming, you better get the nursery ready. God pulled a prayer from the past into the "NOW" even though his "NOW" had some questions their prayer was anchored solid in the purpose of God.
God is about to pull the cry of your heart from days gone by into your "NOW"!
The Word for The Year of our Lord, 2021 is NOW!!! I ask all of you that read this to come into agreement with the God's House Church Family and Scott Boatner Ministries International on the word "NOW"! We are one Body in one Kingdom with one Faith so "NOW FAITH" is going to get real in 2021!
Today (12.31.2020) at 2:00 pm CST/MS/USA I received a phone call from the other side of the world. It was 3:00 am 1.1.2021 there because of the Time Zones. It was our God's House Lead Pastor, Josh Paul. He called to pray for us and me for them. I have received this same call every year since New Year's Eve 2010. It is not like all of the other conversations we have during the year because of its significance concerning the changing of the calendar date. Pastor Josh prays for us as we are about to transition from one year to the next in a few short hours and I pray for him as he has already made the transition in real time to the new year. It almost feels like time travel because our words travel in a split second even though he is hours ahead of me in a new calendar year and I am hours behind him still in the final hours of the old calendar year. But we are both in God's "NOW"!
NOW IS THE TIME TO STAND, BELIEVE and PROCLAIM the NOW WORD of God!! The Word of God is Eternal Spiritual Truth. It is not just a compilation of facts but it is TRUTH and there is no possible factor than can change it in any way!
"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 KJV)
"NOW" is a time of Blessing and Favor to enable us to fulfill all the purpose of God because the Coming of the Lord is at hand. Please make the necessary choices and commitment to get in line with God then STAY THE COURSE!!

TRUTH IS NOT HATE!!
"These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum. Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, THIS IS AN HARD SAYING; who can hear it?" (John 6:59-60 KJV)
"When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, DOTH THIS OFFEND YOU?"(John 6:61 KJV)
"From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him."(John 6:66 KJV)
"I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins." (John 8:24 KJV)
Jesus was not mad or hating on this group of religious unbelievers, just simply telling them they would die in their sins if they didn't face the TRUTH of being an unbeliever in need of the Savior!!!
"And ye shall KNOW THE TRUTH, and the truth shall make you free."
(John 8:32 KJV)
You can count on TRUTH staying the same, year after year, without any variation! However facts can change as they are susceptible to present tense discovery of knowledge relevant to any particular fact. There are exceptions to this rule as some facts will never change because they have no possible factors that are susceptible to any form of change!!! Once again, Truth is eternal therefore it is unchanging because it originated in the MIND OF GOD! Jesus Christ is the embodiment of TRUTH! He said;
"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 KJV)
This is not HATE but the TRUTH!!! If you do not know Jesus Christ as your Savior then call on Him at this very moment!!! He is willing and waiting to bring you into The Family of God!

I speak a Blessing over you......
Peace, Love, Prosperity and Protection to you and all those you love!!! (Psalm 91:1-16)
I know many of you have new unexpected unprecedented fear at this moment. I know many of you have old fears that you wish you could forget but you can't.....because the older is greater!!! You can now hide your old weathered anxiety under the COVID-19 BLANKET but your real fear Is far deeper..... you often wonder how you ever got here!!! You dream of a time when you were free and full of hope, peace and dreams!! You long for that to be possible again but......you doubt it will ever be......
There is a way out!!! One way out.....

Friday 13, 2020!!!
At the age of 17 years old my daddy's oldest brother, George Huland Boatner, was drafted into WW2 on a Friday the 13th!! He was taken to the bus station in an old log truck by Uncle OB Boatner!! (OB Boatner was actually my daddy's first cousin but I called him Uncle OB)
Uncle Huland went into live combat on THE NEXT FRIDAY 13th!!! HE CAME HOME WITHOUT A SCRATCH!!!
So as Uncle Huland told me all my life Friday the 13th was a GOOD DAY!!!!
We've made our choice so we must STAY THE COURSE!!! We will come out of the "Den of Lions" without a scratch!!!
"My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: "Daniel 6:22 KJV"
Fear has come to claim the children!
Heavenly Father!!
Please cover the ears and eyes of the children because they are hearing that Daddy and Mama may lose their jobs. They are hearing that they may not have enough food! They are hearing this over and over because the parents are consumed with fear!! They trust their parents and grandparents with all their little hearts!! They are afraid!! Fear has come to claim the children!!! I pray my loving Heavenly Father that you let this Fear roll off the children of the world like water off of a ducks back. MAY THIS BE THE GREATEST GENERATION!! Please don't let this fear into their little minds and hearts because it will stay with them all the days of their lives!! God please speak to the adults that maybe they should turn the news off or kindly close their mouths because they are becoming a delivery system for the spirit of FEAR!!! God let the Angels wrap their STRONG ARMS around our babies!!!
Fear is a spirit but I also am a Spirit because I'm created in the Image of my Creator and My God so I say unto you fear, you have to leave the children alone!! Satan you have come to claim the children but you will leave a failure! Fear, you cannot have access to them because I have submitted myself to God, I have resisted the devil, he has to flee from the children!! So in the Name of Jesus Christ, The King of Kings and The Lord of Lords I say unto you spirit of fear, you have to bow your head to Jesus Christ the Savior of the World! You cannot and you will not take control of my babies nor our babies for the rest of their days!!!
God you walked in our midst at God's House on the Lord's Day, You sat with us, You stood with us!! We worshipped you, We gladly heard your Word preached by a young man of just 17 years in age but He had heard Your Voice!! He preached on being fully restored!! God forbid as the "Watchman on the Wall" at God's House that I should let fear into our midst!! God forbid that I should let fear into the minds of those Pastors, Prophets and Apostles that I mentor around the world!!
NO, not TODAY, not TOMORROW not ANY DAY because JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME TODAY, YESTERDAY AND FOREVER!! (Hebrews 13:8)
"Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven."(Matthew 18:4 KJV)
....that's all....for now....
God Bless,
Pastor Scott L. Boatner
