1 Peter 2:24 ( NIV) “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
No matter what we go through or what we’ve been through, you can rest assure that you always have to keep your hands in the Master’s hands! I have NEVER, nor will I EVER turn my back on God! If anything, I’ll draw nearer to thee! It’s a must, because there will be a blessing waiting for you at the end of the storm! God will also provide you with the proper peace and joy you need for the journey and a way of escape.
In this Lenten season, as we lead up to Good Friday, where our Jesus endured way more than you and I, and he uttered: Forgive them! For they know not what they do! I’m so glad that he did! Jesus bore that old rugged cross so that we could be free and a sinner like me could be saved, set free and made whole! Thank You Jesus!
Through it all, I’ve learned to trust in Jesus, I’ve learned to trust in God! THROUGH IT ALL! #keepgoing #JESUSCHRISTISLORD #Jesusdiedforme #YESLORD
Luke 23:34 (KJV) – “Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.”
1 John 1:9 – If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Life is a teacher ALL BY ITSELF!
Life has taught us so many things in general and in depth after the passing of our Father in 2013, way before COVID-19 that made getting through this pandemic a breeze.
I was already use to being in the Valley isolated all by myself, keeping to myself and pushing through big situations dang near alone!
Where I reside, it’s pretty much every man for themselves! Not much kindness here, but every now and then you run across a God given soul or organization that changes your mind/life and way of thinking and makes you believe again that kindness does exist and despite the fact of your strong beliefs knowing that our God is real and he walks with you every step of the way no matter how the situation may look or feel!
Sometimes, the trials of life will make you change your perspective on life and how you use to operate! The things you use to do, you don’t do no more! It’s like repentance. You’ve turned away from things that are not good for you and use to matter, that doesn’t matter now!! What we use to deem important, are no longer important anymore and we found out we can live without a whole lot of things and individuals, including a lot less DRAMA!
In actuality, minus the sickness and death, this past year we’ve seen, it’s actually been a blessing in disguise if you’ve managed to have survived and made it to this new season. I’m not changing nothing! I feel so much better! I feel healthier and happier than I have in a while and it’s truly a blessing in spite of everything that’s going on around me! Nope, life is far from perfect, but I’ve learned to find the GOOD and God in every situation no matter what! I’ve learned to manage my time better. Spend quality time with the ones I’ve identified are here for me and are in my corner. I’ve actually learned to manage money much better and LOVE in general on a whole new level and many new skills and professions acquired in ONE YEAR during a Pandemic in the 21st Century!
Be blessed and know that your change will come!!
Praise The Lord!

•

Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance.
Matthew 10:16 (KJV) 16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
The whole point this passage of scripture is trying to convey is that you must be WISE!
Matthew 10:15-17
King James Version
15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city. 16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. 17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;
Even back when, there was deception and all types of acts of sin going on in the camp, and God’s people were being falsely lead by Men of God that represented one way but was living another way! Lies and deceptions are nothing new! It existed back when and truly exist now; however, you must be WISE, study your BIBLE and know God’s word for yourself, stay prayed up and develop a closer relationships with God! It sounds complex, but it’s a daily process that can be accomplished as we grow together!
On this journey, there’s always going to be someone that will misrepresent and try and take advantage of innocent people. Then on the other hand, there are some upright, Men and Women of God working for the Kingdom of God, spreading God’s Word, Feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, housing the homeless, taking care of the widows and doing all sorts of charitable acts of kindness that should be recognized and these Great leaders should be put in a category of their own or at least not be looked upon as everyone is the same. We are not! We all have the opportunity to change and want to be upright and a better person in Christ. We must pray and ask God for guidance and help along the way because everyday are brand new mercies and we serve a great God who sits waiting with his arms stretched wide open with the ultimate plan of salvation which is always on the table for all people no matter what the situation is!! God is FAITHFUL and he is a Just God!
It’s too often that one or two bad wolves in sheep clothing misrepresents in front of the world, and the world tend to have a misperception of what the CHURCH really is and what Men and Women-of-God are really about! No matter how you look it, We as individuals are the church, so therefore we must act accordingly because the world is watching and there are those that are sitting around waiting on the next mess up instead of staying prayed up!!
This COVID 19- pandemic has taught us a lot as each one of us has had to dig deep within ourselves and we’ve actually come to realize that our body is our Temple, just as us seasoned Saints of God has known all the time as we’ve been taught by the word-of-the-Lord. We’ve found things within ourselves that we didn’t know existed. Some of us have gifts inside of us that we’ve been able to use and share with our family and friends from right where we are and you never left home, but you still felt that connection to God!!! If you hold on I’m going some where!!
Some of us have been believing all these years before COVID-19 that we needed to be in a “church building” to seek, find and accept God and do his will. Not so!! We have found out that you can have a RELATIONSHIP with God and do his will right from where you are, AND NO four wall experience is necessary!! Although, the Bible does say in:
Hebrews 10:25 (KJV)
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
www.wifiministries.org
However, God still made a way through technology for some of us to come together as usual and never miss a beat!! Some churches were in full swing and we were yet having faith and praying for God’s protection over his people. Nevertheless, we should be thanking God for technology!!!
When I heard man say that Church was not essential, that’s where we knew as Saints of God where to draw the line. What the people of today didn’t realize is that most of our churches/ bible studies and prayer meetings started in our Grandparents, or somebody’s living room, way before we ever got to a four wall church edifice experience.
Church is in us, and the harder the time, the more creative we will become to get to God and to get God’s word out to God’s people and that alone should be celebrated and counted as WISE!
Then there’s that one person that you must look out for and be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
Ecclesiastes 9:11 (KJV) – I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
Look where God has brought us from!!
We started our nonprofit journey coming up 25 years ago in October under the jurisdiction of Southern California in the Lord’s Church of Jesus Christ and the covenant with God has NOT been broken! Yes, to be clear, I am Bapastolic which is a mix of Baptist and Apostolic. Lol 😂 Can somebody say Hallelujah! As the old folks would say; “ain’t nobody mad but the devil!” As Saints of God, we are here to to tear satin’s kingdom down because it’s all. ABOUT JESUS!
We are spiritually active and going strong changing one life at a time starting with our own!! That’s why you should stay Connected to God!! This our sole purpose for this ministry and our only intent that lives are changed, and souls are saved by rightly dividing the word of truth which is the Word-of-The-Lord! We thank you all who have been rocking with us on this journey. Our subscribers are the best, and please know that your feedback and comment are important to us!
We are going to continue to run this race and fight the good fight of FAITH through Jesus Christ, so one day we can see what the end is going to be!! We desire to hear these precious words from God: “Well Done, Though Good and Faithful SERVANT!”
Believe it or not, we have lots to be thankful for! Some folks are wanting information on where do they begin or how can I… Share your knowledge if you know. I read a law book on incorporating 25 years ago and we’ve been set every since. Yes, ministry is a business! God’s business and don’t get it twisted!

The Bible says in: Proverbs 22:6 – Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
The Bible says in Isaiah 11:6:
6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.
Greetings to all of our WIFI visitors, subscribers, family and friends. We would like to take the time to thank you in advance for your support in patronizing our blog by hitting that like button or sharing our inspirational messages with a family member or friend. As we know, the spirit is always willing to do right, but this old flesh of ours, we have to continue to work on daily. So, today I want to share a few highlights on the beautiful Queen Esther.
You all be encouraged and be blessed and as it says in : Galatians 5:16
“So I say, walk by the Spirit,l and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.”
Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king’s wrath pacified.
Paul says in the opening words of the eighth chapter of Romans, “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death,” (Romans 8:2 RSV). A new law, a new edict, has gone into effect. “It is no longer I that live,” he says, “but Christ liveth in me,” (Galatians 2:20a KJV). The law of his life in me is able to counteract the effects of sin and death. It is no longer I that work, but it is he who works through me and so I live his life. It is still I who live it, but “I live it by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me,” (Galatians 2:20 KJV). And when I count on his indwelling life to work through me step by step, he turns even my failures into victories! That is what he is saying.
“Your sorrow shall be turned into joy” (John 16:20), the Lord Jesus said to his disciples before he went to the cross. Notice he did not say, “Your sorrows shall be replaced by joy.” He said that the thing that causes you sorrow shall itself be translated, transmuted, turned into joy. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus turns adversity into adventure, and affliction into praise. It does not always change the circumstances. But it uses them, overpowers them, reverses their effect. The strange thing is that it works best in weakness and in defeat.
This is what Paul discovered when that thorn in the flesh, that raw, grinding, nerve destroying thing kept eating away at him.
We don’t know what it was — something in the flesh that bothered him like a thorn continually pricking him in the side. He prayed three times that it might be taken away, but the answer came, “My strength is made perfect in weakness, my grace is sufficient for thee,” (2 Corinthians 12:9 KJV). So the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus sets you free from the law of sin and death. There need be no defeat for your spirit. There need be no discouragement, no terrible crushing sense of despair even though the circumstances remain unchanged, his indwelling life in you is sufficient to meet everything that comes.
The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, working in a shepherd lad named David, took hold of the very situation that was causing despair and pessimism in the camp of Israel and turned the very threat itself, Goliath the giant, into triumph for Israel. David’s faith in an indwelling, all-adequate God was the only new factor added to that situation. Gloom and despair had spread like a cancer throughout the whole camp of Israel and one man, a mighty man of towering stature and strength, was holding the entire army of God immobile and helpless. Then David came along saying, “Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that dares defy the armies of the living God?” (1 Samuel 17:26). Though his sight, like the others, is fixed upon Goliath, his faith was fastened upon a living God who was able to meet every circumstance no matter what it was, when it came, or how it occurred. And he said, “In the face of those resources, who is this?” That quiet faith worked the miracle by which the very one who threatened became the ground of victory, triumph, and blessing.

Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
We can script it, we can comprehend it, and we can surely articulate it and drop the mic on any platform we are given. We are certain about who we are and who’s we are and we truly know who we belong to! (Jesus Christ!) This is personal right here and we are certain on this one thing: that I was Chosen from my Mother’s womb and I freely accepted my call to the ministry to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and it has not been an easy task but I use whatever vehicle and platform God has given me to deliver God’s word and do outreach ministry and we have never been stopped!
Galatians 1:15

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
◄ Philippians 4:7
Philippians 4 King James Bible
Stand Firm in the Lord
Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord. And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.
Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Think on These Things
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
Philippian Generosity
But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity. Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only. For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity. Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account. But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God. But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Final Greetings
Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you. All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar’s household.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. {It was written to the Philippians from Rome by Epaphroditus.
