"Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. John 20:17"

When Jesus Christ died, His disciples were disappointed because they thought all their hope was lost. After three days, during the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb to attend to Jesus Christ's body, but He was not there; He had risen. Jesus Christ found her and told her He was ascending to His God and to her God, what a wonderful family we have! God is part of our family; in fact, He is the head of the family, and Jesus Christ is our brother. This is the intimate relationship we have with God and our Lord Jesus Christ. If we learn to discern, appreciate, and nurture this relationship, we will enjoy God and our Lord Jesus Christ, and it will be easy to obey them and serve them because we are one family. Dear beloved, let this mind be in you so that you can enjoy God, our Lord Jesus Christ, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit on Earth. Hallelujah!
Tomorrow may not come, your salvation is paramount, and the Rapture is real.
God loves you and so do I.
Have a joyous Sunday, the Lord's day, and Sabbath day to worship and to give Him all of our praise.
God loves you and so do I.
Deacon.

There is not a righteous man on earth who does what is right and never sins.—Ecclesiastes 7:20
We're all broken, flawed, and tainted (Romans 3:9-11, 23-24). Or, at least, that is what we were before God saved us, the Spirit sanctified us, and Jesus brought us into his family (1 Corinthians 6:9-11). Praise God! Praise God because of his grace. Praise God for the work of Jesus. Praise God for the presence of the Holy Spirit. Because of these, we can stand before God holy, without blemish, and free from accusation, Hallelujah (Colossians 1:22).
Forgiving Father and Holy God, thank you for redeeming me from my sinful ways through the loving self-sacrifice of Jesus. Thank you for empowering me to become more like him by the transforming power of your Holy Spirit. Thank you for helping me become more than I could ever be through your grace than I could ever be through my own efforts. Thank you, dear God, for saving me from sin, ransoming me from guilt, and redeeming me to share in your glory. In Jesus' name, I praise you. Amen.
God loves you and so do I.
Deacon.
Happy, God is faithful, Wednesday.

Broken!
I was in Dollar Tree last night, and there was a lady and two kids behind me in the LONG line. One was a big kid, and the other one was a toddler. The bigger one had a pack of glow sticks, and the toddler was screaming for them. The Mom opened the pack and gave him one which stopped his tears. He walked around with it smiling; but then the bigger boy took it, and the toddler started screaming again. Just as the Mom was about to fuss, the older child bent the glow stick and handed it back to the toddler. As we walked outside at the same time, the toddler noticed that the stick was now glowing; and his brother said, "I had to break it so that you could get the full effect from it."
I almost ran, because l could hear God saying to me, "I had to break you to show you why I created you. You had to go through it so you could fulfill your purpose."
That precious child was happy just swinging that "unbroken" glow stick around in the air, because he didn't understand what it was created to do - which was "glow".
There are some people who will be content just "being," but some of us are chosen... we have to be "broken."
We have to get sick.
We have to lose a job.
We go through a divorce.
We have to bury our spouse, parents, best friend, or our child...
In those moments of desperation, We were broken. But... when the breaking is done, then we will be able to see the reason for which we were created. So when you see us glowing, just know that we have been broken.

Copied and Pasted! 🥰

Praise the Lord everybody. Praise the Lord, Facebook family and beloved of God. First of all my heartfelt prayers and condolences goes out to the family of the victims at Trump rally. And for those injured. Secondly, I have watched the aledged assassination attempt on former President Trump life. And my conclusion is it was staged. Planned. A sad attempt to stir up his supporters. To increase his base and platform heading next week to the Republicans convention. Was it a lucky miss.A close call. Or a staged production. Either way as always, Trump is taking advantage of it. Really assassination attempt or political ploy. You decide.
God loved you and so do I.

On this Grateful Friday, I have a praise report. Praise be to our God for bringing my A1C blood sugar down from a high of 14.9 to an 8.3. Wow.
6.6. Won't He do. Thank you Father. In Jesus name. Beloved of God, what are you excited about on this Grateful Friday.
God loves you and so do I.

Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord, on this brand new day, right now, right where you are. Yes it is true as a Baptized, born again believer and follower of Jesus Christ, and the word of God, through His Holy Spirit, we all should be waiting for the sound of the trumpet, signaling the return of Jesus Christ for His people. Oh what a great day. BUT, until that day we remain citizens of these great United States of America. And what happens and changes in the government does affect our daily lives as well. Beloved of God, the Word of God tells us that we parish from a lack of knowledge. How can that be in this age of technology and social media, information is all around us, but we must know that we need to gain this information for ourselves. Not letting others tell you and I what is good for us, or as followers of Christ we show not be concerned with political and social and community issues. That we should not vote. Yes we are to obey and live according to governmental ruling and recognize its authority, but the Word tells us to be watchful as well as prayerful. To inspect their fruits to find the truth. To not lean on our own understanding, but attain wisdom that leads to knowledge, that leads to power.
Beloved of God, take an interest in finding out more about Project 2025. It is real. It is a threat to all of humanity. It will separate down the middle of the fabric of society. With you and I losing health benefits, losing jobs, cuts in teachers just to name a few of the serious dangers ahead. Taking us back to the Ronald Reagan administration. This project will give Trump, if elected all the power he would need to implement many of his campaign promises and reverse the direction and accomplishments that this country has been proud of for generations. One example to make changes the Constitution. To give accessive power to the president. It will certainly be hell here on earth for us if this happens.
Gird of your loins with information, and knowledge which leads to power. Having the right to vote is power. That's why they are trying to take that right away, from you and I. Put yourself in the position to make the right decision and choices for you and your family, their family. Lack of knowledge keeps us in the dark. Wisdom and knowledge sheds light on the truth. You decide which side of the fence you will be on. Stand strong. Stand for what's right. A vote for Trump will not benefit you and I.
God loves you and so do I.
Deacon.

Project 2025. What does it mean to the real American people? You and I. Wake up. Read. Be aware. And vote no to Trump. Yes to Democracy.
God loves the USA, and so do I.

Posted by Keith Glendenpage:
Having read my way through a fair bit so far, and sought to understand the plans underway by a well-orchestrated machine of non-democratic revisionism….

My impression thus far is that if this ball is started rolling, the United States will no longer be a place even theoretically aimed at equal rights, at prosperity for all, at the right to the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness - except for those with the ‘right’ sets of beliefs and / or those willing to comply.

If only there were such energy and focus being put forth to build an America for All and to honor the values and the vision that so many have toiled, fought, and given their lives for.

I do think this country needs a return to bipartisan cooperation and absolutely there are areas in which conservative policies are needed.

But this… this is an entire dismantling of our nation’s core and a transformation into something we will never recognize as the United States again.

Every voter should understand this….. because this is what is truly being voted on in November. And this is only what’s being shared publicly…..

O Lord my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me...—Psalm 7:1
Who or what is pursuing you? Is it a past mistake? Is it an old enemy? Is it an addiction in your life that is dragging you down? Is it your conscience? Is it a nagging sense of guilt? Is it someone who wants to do you physical harm? Is it a physical illness? Is it a lingering sense of dread or an uncertainty about your future? We have many things that we can fear and feel — a lingering sense that these things we dread are pursuing us. So the bigger question is: Where do we go to find peace and security amid all the storms and struggles of life? There is only One who can be a true and lasting refuge. Just One: The Lord God! And this One Lord longs to deliver and save you if you take refuge in him!
Father God, you are my refuge and source of strength. This is especially true when my courage is gone, and my soul is weary. Please, dear Father, destroy all the forces and powers and enemies that pursue me and seek to take me captive and draw me away from you. In Jesus' name, I confidently pray that you are my refuge. Amen.
This is one of the opportunity you have to give your life to Jesus Christ, tomorrow may be too late
Welcome to a Glorious New month of July, and the beginning of a brand new week, serving and rejoicing in the same God.
God loves you and so do I.
Deacon.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.—Romans 6:23 If we get paid what we deserve as flawed and sinful humans, we're not going to like our wages when we stand before God, trying to plead our case. On the other hand, God, who is rich in mercy and grace, gives us his gift of salvation because of the sacrifice of Jesus and our faith in him. We won't get what we deserve or receive the cruel wages of sin if Christ is our Lord and Savior. He died to pay that debt, that wage of sin and death. Instead, we will receive the gift of eternal life in the glorious presence of God and his holy angels. I don't know about you, but that makes me want to serve him more passionately and faithfully!
Glorious and gracious Father, holy and perfect in every way, thank you for your sacrificial grace, which bridges the great gulf between your perfect righteousness and my imperfection and sinfulness. Thank you for the gift of eternal life. May my mortal life be holy and pleasing to you. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
God loves you and so do I.
Deacon.
Happy, Sunday, the Lord's day, and Sabbath to keep it Holy.

Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.—Ephesians 6:4
In Malachi 4:6, God promised that fathers and children in God's coming Kingdom would be reunited in heart. Let's make that real in our homes today by nurturing and correcting our children, using a balance of nurture and correction. Let's not make our faith so full of rules and restrictions that it becomes impossible for our children to obey or hear that they are our beloved children, with whom we are well pleased! Let's not grant so much freedom, however, that our children feel neglected and uncertain about how to live in today's morally chaotic world. Let's turn our hearts toward them and pray for God to turn children's hearts toward their homes with us and our Father in heaven!
O Lord God Almighty, Abba Father, our land lies under a curse because many Fathers have spiritually and physically abandoned their children. Please raise up parents, especially fathers, daddies, who will balance the challenging tasks of love, nurture, and correction and heal our families so our children may know your love and grace. In Jesus' name, we beg you to help our fathers. Amen.
Father, teach your children to obey Your Commandments and to follow the examples Your Son, Jesus Christ, taught while He was on earth.
God loves you, and so do I.
Deacon
Happy, "Don't worry, Tuesday."

Peter continued the apostles' defense for proclaiming Jesus as Messiah and Lord. "The God of our fathers raised Jesus from the dead — whom you had killed by hanging him on a tree."—Acts 5:30
Peter is making clear that his faith in Jesus didn't just begin with Jesus. It began with God's promise to the Patriarchs, the great Jewish fathers. The God who blessed them also raised Jesus from the dead! These Jewish opponents threatening the early believers had made sure that Jesus had been executed in the most heinous and degrading way possible for a faithful Jew — he was nailed to a cross, hung on a pole in front of a jeering mob, something that was both illegal and a sign of being cursed under Jewish Law (Deuteronomy 21:23; Galatians 3:13). But God raised Jesus from the dead and exalted him and made him our Savior and our Lord (Acts 5:31). Praise God! No wonder Peter was bold in his defense.
Thank you, Father, for showing your power over evil, sin, hate, jealousy, scandals, curses, and death. In the name of Jesus, my Lord and Savior, I offer my praise and thanksgiving as I commit to boldly proclaiming Jesus as my resurrected Lord and Savior. Amen.
On this Thankful Thursday, I am thankful for Jesus Christ and His faithfulness to His chosen and beloved of our God.
God loves you, and so do I.

Peter and the other apostles replied [to their religious critics among the Sadducees, priests, and Sanhedrin]: "We must obey God rather than men!"—Acts 5:29
Against a stern warning from the ruling council in Jerusalem, called the Sanhedrin, Peter and the other apostles proclaimed Jesus as Lord. This Sanhedrin is basically the same group that presented Jesus to the Romans to have the Savior crucified! However, Peter and the other apostles knew that Jesus had triumphed over the attempts of his enemies to extinguish him and his ministry. They chose to blatantly disobey the orders of the very same people who had Jesus crucified. By any standard, that is faithful courage. Their reason for this boldness? They had been sent by God, through Jesus, to proclaim the truth throughout the world, beginning in Jerusalem (Acts 1:8). Their actions challenge us to ask ourselves a question: How are we doing in standing up for Jesus in a culture dogmatically set against his will?
Lord God Almighty; please empower me through the work of your Spirit to be courageous in proclaiming the glorious truth about Jesus. I do not want to back down from my convictions or renounce my faith in Jesus, in whose name I pray. Amen.
"Let us all go tell on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born. And that He lives, so that I sins may be forgiven. Some believe in horses and chariots, but as for me, I will trust in the Lord.
God loves you, and so I.
Deacon.

But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.—Matthew 5:28
Living in a sexually supercharged world and facing the prevalence of po*******hy on the Internet and in today's media, how are you doing with this issue? Jesus challenges us to recognize that sin starts in our hearts and begins when we longingly seek what is not ours to have. While the world may think such rigorous guarding of our hearts as impossible or ridiculous, Jesus wants us to know he hates sexual sin — and the place it begins, the lust of our hearts — seriously.
Loving Father, give me the strength to resist sexual temptation, the wisdom to stay away from it, and the character to triumph over it. Purify my heart, O God, and make it yearn for what is holy and life-giving. In the mighty name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
"Find a good spouse, you will find a good life. And even more: the favor of God!"
God loves you, and so do I.
Deacon.
