A double minded man….

James 1:1-8 King James Version (KJV) 1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting. My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

(To A Double Minded Man)

Greetings to all of my WIFI subscribers, family and friends… I pray blessing to each one of you… Remember to seek the Lord in everything that you do … He will lead you and he will guide you in the right direction and please follow the path that was designed for your life…   Have a blessed Memorial Day weekend! ~ Minister Evelyn Diane, Irvine, California

How many sins have you done in your lifetime so far?
Because we have a sinful heart, we refuse to let God be the Boss of our lives.
You must make two turns: you must turn away from your sins and
you must turn to the Lord Jesus Christ to obey Him

Romans 3:10  (KJV) 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

 

James 4:11-12 New International Version (NIV)11 Brothers and sisters, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against a brother or sister or judges them speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?

The Poor Widow’s Offering

Luke 21:1-4

[1] As he looked up, Jesus saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. [2] He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. [3] “I tell you the truth,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. [4] All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”

“Don’t Look Down On A Man” – The Jackson Southernaires

Greetings to my WIFI subscribers, viewers, family and friends…  This has been one interesting week, but I do know that God is in it every step of the way…   As I thought about the society we live in and how the economy is the way it is, there are a lot of people that are secretly hurting, but you will never know just by the naked eye.   As we open up and talk to one another, we find that most people are alike in a lot of ways… They may not be the same nationality, creed or economic status as you, but they still have the same desires and the same needs alike.. We all want to be loved, we all need to eat and have clean water to drink,  clothes on our backs and shoes for our feet…  With that in mind, all man kind deserves a chance to enjoy life no matter what level you live your life on…  

As I’m reminded of the story in the book Luke about the poor widow woman that did not have much, but she gave out the abundance of  her heart, and that’s all that really matters is that when we give, we give with sincerity and from our heart no looking for anything in return…  As we look at the scriptures below, I want to let you know that no matter how small your contribution may be, God honors it, and will bless you for giving from the depths of  your heart just like the poor widow woman with little..

As I study God’s word on this morning, he began to speak clearly the 23rd Psalms to me.

Psalm 23 (KJV)

1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

 

Luke 20:45-21:4

[45] While all the people were listening, Jesus said to his disciples, [46] “Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets. [47] They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. Such men will be punished most severely.”

[21:1] As he looked up, Jesus saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. [2] He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. [3] “I tell you the truth,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. [4] All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”

More than All the Others (21:3-4)

She gave a very small offering, perhaps, but I’ve known many, many people — much better off than the widow — who put in $1 when the plate is passed and feel good about themselves. But for the widow, this $1.50 is all she has.

“‘I tell you the truth,’ he said, ‘this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.'” (21:3-4)
This $1.50 represents buying her next meal. She is destitute, probably living off the charity of her neighbors. She has just a tiny bit in her possession, but she wants to give it. No matter that she won’t have food for the evening meal. She wants to give it.

People are watching the rich ostentatiously depositing their large offerings. But no one marks the poverty-stricken widow, who reached into her rags to withdraw these two thin copper coins and deposit them into the collection box. No one see the look of joy on her face as she gives to her Lord the little she has. No one sees. No one notices.

But God notices. God’s Son notices. And he says to his disciples — “Did you see that!?” They look over where he is pointing. All they see is a tired old widow shuffling away from the collection box.

“She gave more than all of those rich people put together,” Jesus tells them, and they look at him in astonishment. $1.50 vs. thousands of dollars? They don’t say it, but they must think that Jesus is seriously mistaken. Daft, maybe.

But he continues. “All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.” Jesus is thinking about proportional giving.

The word “wealth” (NIV) or “abundance” (KJV) is Greek perisseuo, “to be in abundance, abound.”[11] It is used in contrast to “need” (NIV) or “penury,” which translate the Greek noun husterma, “the lack of what is needed or desirable, frequently in contrast to abundance, need, want, deficiency.”[12] The word translated “live on” (NIV) or “living” (KJV) is Greek bios, “life” and the derived meaning, “resources needed to maintain life, means of subsistence.”[13] (We get our words “biology,” “biotics,” “biosphere,” etc. from bios.)

 

The Lord is my Shepherd

Proportional Giving, Sacrificial Giving, Faithful Giving

I see three lessons for disciples in the brief story of this simple, pious widow:

1. Proportional Giving. Jesus is teaching us that how much we give is related to how much we have. Earlier, Jesus had taught his disciples, “From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked” (Luke 12:48). This principle of proportional giving is at the root of the tithe (10% giving to the Lord) taught in the Old Testament. Paul reiterates this principle to the Corinthian church: “On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income…” (1 Corinthians 16:2).

2. Sacrificial Giving. Jesus doesn’t tell the woman to keep her money, that God doesn’t really need it. He lets her give and his heart swells with pride for this lady. If he stops her, he deprives her of the blessing of giving to God. So he lets her do it. We don’t win extra points with God when we give sacrificially. This is not a contest. But know that when you make sacrifices for God, he is watching. It doesn’t matter if no one else sees or knows. It is better that they do not. But you may count on the fact that God sees and knows your giving. Jesus promises, “Your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you” (Matthew 6:4).

3. Faith-filled Giving. The third lesson I see here is that we ourselves should not despise our small gifts to God. Sometimes we fall under the worldly spell that “bigger must be better.” That’s not true of our giving to God. We are to give what we are able, whether small or great. If you’ve ever been poor, then you know that it is easy to feel, “My small gift won’t make any difference. It won’t matter.” But that’s not true. It does matter. It matters to your Heavenly Father who loves you.

It is also faith-filled when you give, not knowing exactly how God will provide for you after you give. I’m not encouraging foolish giving, but faith-filled giving, giving proportionately to your income and expecting God to meet your needs, with more-than-enough to be able to give again (2 Corinthians 9:6-11). The tithe is a good guideline for giving, if you are just getting started stretching your faith. And wonderful promises come along with this practice (Malachi 3:6-12).

Motivations for Giving

It is a fact, at least in the US, that the poor give a substantially larger proportion of their income to the Lord’s work than the wealthy? Why is this? I believe that the poor tend to give out of love, while the wealthy tend to give out of duty. The poor give when it hurts. The wealthy seldom give enough so that it ever hurts.

Comfortably wealthy people tend to see their “large” dollar-amount gifts as significant, and can use them as leverage for power. It is common to hear of so-called “church pillars” who withhold their giving to the church until the pastor begins to do things their way or leaves. Wealthy members can use their money to control a church. “After all,” they say, “if it weren’t for my giving….” They try to buy the pastor’s favor and so compromise the pastor’s integrity. But wealthy donors like this are no better than the Pharisees who give and pray in order to be seen by others. Manipulators, power-seekers, they can be a blot on the purity of the Church of Jesus Christ.

Wealthy people can, of course, be a great blessing to others, if they give out of the right motives. If wealthy people give sacrificially, they please God. If they give out of love, they please God. If they give in proportion to their income, they please God.

But if we think that the value of our gift is greater than the widow’s mite because it is a larger dollar amount, then we misunderstand the economics of the Kingdom of God. God does not need you or me to keep his enterprise afloat. He does not owe us. He is not beholden to us. The cattle on a thousand hills are his, and all the riches buried in the earth. He is fabulously wealthy.

On the other hand, don’t withhold your gift, don’t despise your giving just because the amount is so very small. God looks at your heart. God looks at your ability to give. And God desires to be proud of your giving, no matter how poor you are.

We don’t give because God “needs” our contribution. We give in order to honor him with our substance. Whether large or small, we give to worship God.

I remember one other comparison Jesus gave between the wealthy and giving all. Jesus told the Rich Young Ruler to sell all that he had and give to the poor, and then to come, follow Him. The man balked. But the disciples later asked, “Haven’t we given all to follow you?” And Jesus replied that those who give sacrificially will be richly rewarded — in this life and in the life to come. (18:18-30).

How about you, my disciple friend. Have you given God your all, whether large or small? If you have, then you know the racing heart of trusting God for the next step, the next meal, the next project. And you know the reward of loving God with a joy and purity that reward you with his glorious presence.

I need to see that widow giving her two thin copper coins. I don’t want to let her see me watching. But I need to see her. I need to see her to remind me once again what real love for God is all about.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, I am more and more aware that those whom you will reward with the greatest crowns are not as likely to be the well-known Christian leaders, as the faithful men and women who regularly lay their whole life and livelihood on the line for you. I pray that I might someday you might count me worthy to stand among these ordinary Christian heroes. In your Holy Name, I pray. Amen.

Key Verse

“I tell you the truth,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.” (Luke 21:3-4)

You’ll never understand my praise and don’t try to figure it out, but please know that my worship is foreal….

Psalm 95:6 (ESV) Oh come, let us worship
and bow down; 
let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!

Bishop Paul S. Morton- Bow Down and Worship

Greetings to my World in Focus International Subscribers,
family and friends…  “Greetings!!!!!”

I have nothing fancy to say today but “Lord I Love you Lord, and please know that  My worship is for-real  because God is so worthy Lord!!!!    Hallelujah…

All I need you to know is that “My worship is foreal…”  All, I can say is that  you don’t really know my story and all the things that I’ve been through, and I know  that you  can’t feel my pain or know what I had to go through to get where I am today…  Nevertheless,  I “Thank you dear Jesus!!!”  My worship is for-real…  Lord, I love you!!!  I don’t know about anybody else, but God has been so good to me and Jesus Christ  have brought me over hurdles, and continue to make me leap over every circumstance that life presents..  Good, bad or ugly, God, he’s been right there and has never left me
or forsake me like man! All I can do on today is cry out ” Hallelujah” anyhow…

Yes to your will,  yes to your ways because tragedy is common place, and people are slipping away.. I still say thank you Jesus… Knowing that I could have been dead sleeping in my grave, but you made my enemies behave!!!   Your so worthy… That’s why I serve you everyday….  Hallelujah, and I lift my hands to you oh God even when I don’t feel like it because my worship is foreal…

 

You don’t know my cost of my anointing, but this one thing I do know that my worship and my relationship with God is for-real… I don’t mind talking intimate to God, and making love to God because he is my everything!!!  Hallelujah!!!

 

Can I tell you all something?  It really just hit me even harder this morning that one of my friends has really  gone on home to be with the Lord.. Prayers going out to her family and friends…  Nevertheless, I Pray God in Heaven that you continue to give us strength right now to get through all the different trials of life   I know that we all have special people in our lives that have gone home to glory and are no longer here on earth with us, but we thank you for all the precious moments you allowed them to be a part of our lives…. You don’t need “to know”, but  just “know” those eyes saw more than we could ever imagine In the place between heaven and mine .. I Still I hear you when you speak, I can still Feel you near me as my guide, and telling me that the the one’s that mistreat you, they don’t deserve you.. move on and keep it pushing…  That meant everything to me, you just don’t know, and that’s why with the help that you always told me to seek from God, Jesus always stops by and show us his ultimate grace and mercy…  On that note, I know that Jesus is able to heal every broken heart and every pain and misery you feel.  Just hold on to God with everything that you have!   He is able to do anything but fail, and I’m a living witness…

Here’s a song that will bless your soul, and I hope it blesses you like it did me… I’ve even enclosed the lyrics so you can really know that the words to this song is really real in my life on today…  It’s not just a song to me, it’s a true reality!

The verse I started this post out with in Matthew 7:12 is called
‘The Golden Rule.’

Galations 6:7 – Do not be deceived:
God cannot be mocked. A

man reaps what he sows.  No one is exempt!

The scriptures in this post are as  plain as it can get, and I don’t even think I need to elaborate further… Just remember that you

will reap just what  you sow!

No matter what other may do, I told the Lord that “I trust you!”

Born again Believers….

Timothy Wright – Yes I’m A Believer

John 14:6 (ESV) Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth,
and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Hello to my WIFI subscribers, family and friends…

I’m lead to speak to the believer’s for just a minute… This may not be for everyone, but this is the word for the hour from the Lord that was given to me..

First of all let me define what a ‘Born again Believer is… “In Christianity, born again refers to a “spiritual rebirth” (regeneration) of the human soul or spirit, contrasted with the physical birth everyone experiences. The origin of the term “born again” is the New Testament:  In the book of John 3:3 (NIV) says:  Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.

 This term is associated with salvation and being Saved and for folks who has accepted our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as their person savior. Individuals who profess to be born again  have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.  This is the only way to be a born again believer…John 14:6 (NIV)   Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

If you are a born again believer.. We should know where and who to turn to when trouble rises, and when the darkest days come our way..I know you all might say, what is she talking about?..  Well,  if you live this life,  you will have some dark days no matter of your race, color or creed or religion… NO one is exempt…  First of all, we should always pray, so without question, before you ask somebody else to pray, you should already be praying to God and pray that what you are asking God for comes to past off of your faith in God.  I find it odd that the saints of God has turned away from prayer and upright teaching.. It seems as everyone has turned to drugs, alcohol sex, adultery, fornication, homosexuality and anything that defiles the temple,  and then want to make excuses why the world is like it is.. God is not pleased… He is exposing a lot of stuff and a lot of people..  Just like back in the day when we did wrong, we had go before the church and and God and ask for forgiveness, or if you were wrong and you knew you were wrong, you either knew to step down, or be asked by an higher authority which should be your self conviction if you know you aint doing right, and you better not even think about touching the Communion on whatever Sunday it was served…(my God).. I guess I’m old… Let me tell  you..  When I was in my mess, I did not get a gold medal when I committed my sins, I got my just reward from God.. Chastisement in the 1st degree, and it was good for me, because it has me where I am today, in a real relationship with God… No, my life is  not perfect, but God is fixing it as we speak so I can be totally pleasing to God, which is the way we all should want to be..

Take time to study your bible, especially in the  The Gospel of Matthew  where it elaborates on the Kingdom of  Heaven… Where we all are trying to make it to!

To be saved we must:

 

1.)   Hear the “good news” of Jesus Christ (Romans 10:14)

2.)   Believe (Hebrews 11:6; Acts 8:37; Mark 16:16; John 8:24)

3.)   Repent of our sins (Luke 13:3,5; Acts 2:38; Acts 17:30; Mark 10:15)

4.)   Confess faith in Jesus Christ (Acts 8:36-37; Romans 10:9)

5.)   Be baptized (in water) for the forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:37-41; 1Peter 3:21; John 3:3-5; Acts 22:16;
Romans 6:3-8; Colossians 2:12; Galatians 3:26-27; Mark 16:15-16; Acts 8:34-39; Ephesians 4:5)

6.)   Remain faithful for the rest of our lives and carry our cross daily (Revelation 2:10;
Matthew 24:13; Luke 9:23)

 

We become saved (conversion occurs) and we come into contact with the blood of Christ (or enter into Christ)at baptism, after steps 1-4 have been fulfilled.

4 The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the Lord. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves.”

Elisha replied to her, “How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?”

“Your servant has nothing there at all,” she said, “except a small jar of olive oil.”

Elisha said, “Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few. Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.”

King James Version (KJV) And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him; Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. 10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

I “Love you Jesus!”

Matthew 22:36-40 (NIV) ~ 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest
commandment in the Law?”~

37 Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself. 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

 Jesus loves you NO matter what!
~ Jesus loves you unconditionally!

 

Good morning to everyone on today, especially my WIFI Ministry Family, friend’s
and all my dear loved one’s…

On Today, I just lift my hands and voice up toward heaven and acknowledge to my heavenly creator how much I love and adore him because he is truly worthy of all of our Praise!   I dare you to just stop right where you are and begin to lift up you voice and cry out to God and invite him…
