Grace and peace to you! We pray you are well and taking time to receive all Christ wants to share with you. The Lord is mobilizing His people to affect circumstances and nations with His authority. “Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me’” (Matthew 28:18). Lord bless you!
Our prayers are with the victims of the recent hurricanes, and we’ve been impacted by so many being the hands and feet of Jesus to help those in need. May the Lord restore back to those that the enemy stole so much from, with some losing their family members and their homes. We have also been in prayer for Israel during this time of war, as well as the USA for this election season. Much is shifting in the atmosphere, especially as a result of the “A Million Women” repentance/intercession event held in Washington, D.C. on the day of the Jewish Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). It is a significant time to be a son or daughter of the Most High God! At our children’s school (SCA), our family took part in the National Day of Prayer. The students offered up prayers for the United States and Yissachar led everyone in “God Bless America.” (left to right, Justice (in red) has the Christian flag, Jerusalem the American flag, and Yissachar (in green) played guitar.) Steve closed in prayer.
Steve got to preach at chapel service again at SCA! He shared about the power of God’s Word, Joshua 1:7-11, and that Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil. He also preached that Jesus came to save, heal, and deliver our spirit, soul, and body! At least ten students raised their hands that their families needed healing, so Steve prayed for those families; we are believing to hear good reports! We are also already excited to minister at Celebration Center on December 8th in Marietta, Ohio, Lord willing! May Christ’s Spirit move mightily!
Christ’s Kingdom Come Ministries sent a donation toward the building of the new main River of God church in Ortigas (Manila), Philippines. They are now building in a well-visited mall where there is easy access by public transportation. We also assisted in donating toward flood relief groceries when the Philippines recently experienced massive flooding. We received a note of gratitude from Pastor Rachel Sanchez for the offerings sent to the Filipinos from CKCM. THANK you for all your prayers, love, and donations to CKCM!
While God is definitely on the throne, it is a vital time for Christians to stand for righteousness. You matter and you make a difference for the Kingdom to advance in the earth for such a time as this (Esther 4:14)! The Lord is hearing the cries of His people and emboldening them to rise up in the face of adversity. This is not a time to shrink back, but to move forward in faith, believing God is greater than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4).
There are things that our minds label as “impossibilities” based on what we know of the laws of nature or by our experience. The law of gravity is clear to all of us from a very early age, and yet Jesus walked on water superseding gravity’s effect on surface tension! When Jesus fed the multitudes with a little bread and fish, he overcame the law of division. Normally, when food is divided among people, there is a set amount, and, as it is eaten, it becomes less. But Jesus and his disciples overcame the law of division with the law of multiplication, having even more food than they started with! When Jesus laid His hands on (or simply spoke to) the paralyzed, blind, mute, deaf, and others, all sickness was overcome and reversed by the power of God! Hallelujah!!!
“All things are possible to him who believes” (Mark 9:23). Do we believe that God‘s power can overcome all hopelessness, despair, depression, sickness, disease, horrendous sin, depravity, addiction, and even death? We should, because Jesus has ALL authority! When we do have faith in God, we can see mighty miracles overcome natural laws. Jesus said, “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in Me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father” (John 14:12). Let’s walk in all Jesus purchased for us by seeing what is naturally impossible become supernaturally possible!
Our confidence is in the Lord and His wonderful goodness. His goodness is His glory. When Moses asked to see God’s glory, the Lord said that He would cause all of His goodness to pass before Him. God’s goodness is unmatched! His Word is continually showing us that He is good to all, whether it is through providing necessities, finances, hope, abundance, deliverance from enemies, or restoring what has been stolen. You can have confidence in the Lord because He will perform these acts for you and your family when you believe Him. We inherit God’s promises through faith and patience, waiting on Him to answer in His perfect timing.
When God gives a promise in His Word, it must be united with our faith, or it will not be fulfilled. If you look at it like an equation, it could look like:
Promise in God’s Word + Faith = Fulfillment
Another way to write it could be:
Promise in God’s Word ≠ Fulfillment (because Faith is not added to it)
Let’s have faith that God’s promises will come to pass in our lives! He is perfectly faithful, and we can put our full, unwavering confidence in Him. As we patiently believe His promises, the Lord will reveal His flawless goodness in all areas of our lives. He is truly worthy of all our trust!
Please get out and vote in this important election! We as believers have a voice by our vote, so let’s stand for life, righteousness, and integrity, and freedom! Every vote matters; your role is valuable in this hour! We believe that the best is yet to come for you and your families. The Lord knows the plans He has for you, and He has ZERO BAD PLANS for your life. Grace to the United States! God bless America!
