Can you imagine when we shed this earthly skin tent, being in the presence of God will be just as jaw dropping 25 hundred years later than when we first crossed over? Jesus can't return quick enough. The insanity is getting stupid we all know.....but God wants more souls. Have a blessed day.
I cannot wait my brother! Be blessed, pray for souls into the kingdom and shed all the meaningless pursuits of this fallen kingdom (money, lust, power, personal accolades/ titles, harmless worldly distractions, etc....). May the zeal for our Father's house consume us as we accomplish ALL that Christ has destined for us to achieve!
You got that right brother, God gives us things richly to enjoy but the longer you serve God the things of this world outside of Bibles and the Christian life fade into the unimportant file! Bless you Tom.
It's so disheartening to see how the devil has infiltrated so many people and places . Smiles and greetings have been replaced by frowns and grumbling. The grocery store clerk is no longer courteous, the people you pass while walking outside always look so downtrodden, beaten down, trust has become a thing of the past. What was right is wrong and vice a versa. I am anxiously waiting for our saviors return. I can't wait to meet all my brothers and sisters with bright smiles on their faces and warm hearts. Let's pray for all to join us. Thank you Pastor Evans for all the information we so desperately need during these times. God bless you.
So true Beth. Just yesterday I was kind to someone in line at the Pharmacy and they actually made a point of saying how refreshing it was to have an interaction with someone that is kind! How sad that a small act of kindness actually made that much of an impact.
"All those other bad actions—pride, blasphemy, disobedience, unthankfulness, unholiness, slander, lack of self-control, brutality, hating goodness, betrayal, stubbornness, haughtiness—share a close connection. They all operate as if I am the most important person."
Many years ago now the Holy Spirit asked me this question. "Why do people capitalize "I" while all other pronouns are lowercase?"! His second question was "What's in the middle of the sin of "pride?" p r "I" d e? As a result capital "I" has now become lowercase "i" to me. And when thinking about pride in my life "i" ask myself what is in the middle of pride and that lowercase "i" becomes capital "I!"
When I was first found of the Lord someone shared how to have JOY:
Carol, do you remember the Sunday School song “Jesus and Others and You?” Think you’ve posted this “formula” for joy before. And every time you do it causes me to sing it in my head. Thank you for the lesson this morning!
That’s funny, Jacci! I won’t even share a link for it but there’s a really creepy video of a Russian man coming from behind a screen singing. Made many years ago.
Well, I suppose as God would have it... I went to Church online today, after reading Jimmy’s post this morning, and got the follow-up sermon on how God wants us to love in today’s culture! Gary Hamrick, at Cornerstone Chapel, in Leesburg Virginia, has an amazing command of Biblical Truth from the Bible as a Pastor, and today he really outdid himself, with his sermon from John 13. He tackled: Why we should love, What is love, and How are we to show love in the world today. There are sermons and there are sermons. This one you can fold up and put in your pocket and refer to often; it was that good. I don’t do links, but it is up on YouTube at Cornerstone Chapel right now, if you feel led to supplement, or use it for your Church today, I highly recommend it. Blessings! 🌻
Hey Kris, thank you. We had church cancelled today because the weather is snowy and windy here. I was a little bummed but this sounds like a good alternative. Thanks for sharing.
Kris.... you're my TP sister so I want to help you share links :)) It's super easy. Every single post, article and sermon you watch there is a link on the top of your screen. You can share simply by double clicking on it and copy [command c]. It will turn it blue and that's what you share with us. It's called the "https" and kinda like a link address. Then you paste it [command v] - " https://jamesriver.online/sermon/over-what-youre-under/ " BTW this is a great message on JRC today lol I'm not techy savvy at all, but that's how you share a link. Try it..... 💛
Thanks so much for that Ps Jimmy - as always 😊🙏 It’s interesting how today I walked past an Apple mobile phone and tablet store. It was busier than KMart or Target combined- filled with people taking selfies, seeing which phone or device they could purchase to best glorify themselves!! I thought ‘what has this world come to?’ Feeds right in to what has been outlined in this article I recon.
Lare…I just saw your post. I’m praying for you. Father God in Jesus Name I bind the pain in Lare…And in Jesus Name I loose healing immediately.
Lare hold onto Jesus. He’s our Great Physician. I will continue praying for you and all my siblings in Christ Jesus. Satan knows his time is short. The battles are fierce but Greater is HE THAT IS IN US THAN he that is in the world 💖💖💖
Jesus, we pray for Lare today, and ask you to stop the pain in her abdomen and head. Lord Jesus, go to the root of her pain and heal the source of her pain. We ask for miracles for her body, Lord, in Jesus name, and ministering angels to be at her side that she would not be alone. We ask it in Jesus name, and give You thanks and praise! 🌻
Oh Lord, please heal Lare so she can focus on worshiping you without the agony of bodily pain. She loves you so much and I know that her healing will be a wonderful testimony for the people in her life. To show them you are the one and only true God. Amen.
Yes and Amen! Thank you for this message today Ps Jimmy! You nailed it ... I am constantly checking my motives and my heart in regards to money and pleasure.
It is so sad to me to watch those who you know and love fall away from the faith and medicate themselves with the things of this world. I agree with Rachel below ... prayer is powerful! Pray, pray, and keep praying ... Our sweet Lord sees ALL! ❤️✝️
Being surrounded by people who aren't following Jesus at this time, I found this encouraging. The Lord is so wonderful giving us a boost when we need it. The perfect scriptures. Always the right words. His timing is perfect. All praise, glory, and honor, to you forever and ever Lord Jesus Christ .
It is really sad, and frustrating to see people who you thought were strong Christians fall for and embrace what God calls an abomination. We have to continue to pray for them. Come Lord quickly. ❤💔🙏🏾
Jesus can’t come soon enuf. The pain of watching my uncle almost pass this weekend was intense. Also getting another threatening foreclosure letter. The world getting more evil everyday. Forgive me for being selfish in sharing my burdens. I know many of us are fighting health issues, broken relationships/family, and loneliness. Until Jesus comes back for us, I pray His peace and mercy will sustain you. Maybe even some victories in those who are in a deep valley like me. Come Jesus, come quickly. God bless my brothers and sisters in Christ. I love you all.
Jesus, please help Art and his uncle with all of their needs and many of their wants in every aspect of their lives. They are your children who loves you so much. I pray for peace and joy in their lives as we all wait patiently for your return. Amen
I learned some hard truths today that broke my heart. They mostly reflect on me and why I’m in the situation I’m in. Poor choices. Poor decisions. My past continues to have consequences. While God is working on me in this season, I need to shut up and listen and learn what He wants me to learn. Please forgive me for not being more of a light in this darkness. I either trust Him or don’t. If I truly want to share the gospel, people need to see something in me they want. That’s the guy I want to become. Thank you for your prayers. God bless my friend.
I generally tell people that the doorway called tolerance was an abuse of our loving nature and now we have ushered in immorality where criminals get more rights than victims and death is everywhere by unnatural causes with no one even blinking an eye at some of the most Heinous crime stories that have come out. God was right to warn us about what He does not accept as righteous and how it becomes our own downfall.

J ESUS first
O THERS second
Y OURSELF last
Carol, do you remember the Sunday School song “Jesus and Others and You?” Think you’ve posted this “formula” for joy before. And every time you do it causes me to sing it in my head. Thank you for the lesson this morning!
I don’t know that song. Maybe I can YouTube it. Praying you have a wonderful Sunday.
Justin and Carol, here is the song. Wish there were a less slightly creepy version on youtube:
https://youtube.com/watch?v=uTfbnQ1t1M0&feature=share.
Hope this link works
Hahahahaha, I just watched it on YouTube.... it reminds me of the creepy toddler show, Teletubbies. 😳
That’s funny, Jacci! I won’t even share a link for it but there’s a really creepy video of a Russian man coming from behind a screen singing. Made many years ago.
Yikes!
BTW, just because the song was written in 1951 doesn’t mean I was even born yet 😄
I wii ok my make any assumptions 😉
Yes..... the I'm third life!!! 💛
Wonderful wisdom Carol.

Kari, you are so fun!!! I love your super caring heart!! Trust me, it never works when I try it, but I’ll keep trying!! 🌻
LOL keep trying — u watch super cool stuff to share. 😁
Thanks so much for that Ps Jimmy - as always 😊🙏 It’s interesting how today I walked past an Apple mobile phone and tablet store. It was busier than KMart or Target combined- filled with people taking selfies, seeing which phone or device they could purchase to best glorify themselves!!

Thanks so much once again Ps Jimmy 🙏😊

Lare…how are you doing??? I’m still praying for you!!!
Yes and Amen! Thank you for this message today Ps Jimmy! You nailed it ... I am constantly checking my motives and my heart in regards to money and pleasure.
It is so sad to me to watch those who you know and love fall away from the faith and medicate themselves with the things of this world. I agree with Rachel below ... prayer is powerful! Pray, pray, and keep praying ... Our sweet Lord sees ALL! ❤️✝️
The message is and always has been, surrender to God, his word in thought and action. Then ask the holy Spirit to show you his truth on all topics!
Pretty simple, just difficult to apply!
Being surrounded by people who aren't following Jesus at this time, I found this encouraging. The Lord is so wonderful giving us a boost when we need it. The perfect scriptures. Always the right words. His timing is perfect. All praise, glory, and honor, to you forever and ever Lord Jesus Christ .
It is really sad, and frustrating to see people who you thought were strong Christians fall for and embrace what God calls an abomination. We have to continue to pray for them. Come Lord quickly. ❤💔🙏🏾
Thank you that was good reading I learned some things

We, as sisters and brothers in Christ, should be praying for each other. GBU

Thank you for the encouragement! The self-centredness of humanity is awful to behold. Praise the Lord, He will return to make everything new!
Thank you so much. Blessings
