Hello Dear Friends,

My site will be temporarily paused beginning September 2, 2024. I started my blogs eight years ago and have enjoyed sharing the Word of God with you and how we can apply His Word to our lives. It is my desire to continue posting on my site soon. Our relationship has been reciprocal in nature. I learned through study, research, and most importantly, about God’s path with you. I have been energized by your visiting my sites. I hope you have deepened your understanding of the Word and how to apply it to your daily life. The Bible is not something to be read like a novel, but rather a guide or manual teaching us how to move beyond worldly thoughts and live like Christ. This has been an amazing and enlightening journey. It is my prayer that we all continue to mature in the Word and walk with Christ every step we take. During this pause, I am taking time to reflect on the past 8 years and the 1,400+ posts I have written.

A CALL FOR PRAYING CHRISTIANS

Walking with Christ is the only way we can survive this world. Loving our neighbor is imperative. The world is in chaos. We are called daily to pray for our families, communities, the nations of the world, and embittered political landscapes.

John shares Jesus’ words, “I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. I pray they will become one.” (John 17:20-21 NLT, Bible.com)

Jesus prayed for unbelievers. In an article on the RedeemerRockwall.org website, they shared, “In his High Priestly Prayer, Jesus prayed for unbelievers – this means he prayed for us. We were unbelievers, yet he prayed for us. We also are called to pray for unbelievers.”

I believe that when we refer to unbelievers, we are focusing on future believers as well. Unbelievers are future believers. According to the Bible, all unbelievers are future believers because we are instructed to continue to spread the Good News to all people (future believers). We are told that God is calling all of his children to him. God wants all people to come to him regardless of their past; all can repent, and all can be saved. Being an unbeliever today does not mean that one will always be an unbeliever. An unbeliever is a future believer who can become a brother believer. We all sinned and fell short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23), yet when we received Christ as our Lord and Savior, we joined his family and became one with him.

I leave this last thought with you – It is important that we, as God’s ambassadors, do not get caught up in the wiles of the day. We should continue to pray for all people and all nations. We must continue to spread the Good News and not fall prey to the evil one’s attempts to shift our love away from our Lord and Savior to him. Satan is a deceiver, liar, and killer who loves to sow chaos and destruction throughout the world. Prayer impacts, weakens, and destroys Satan’s plan to hurt, wound, maim, and destroy.
