I was reminded, by someone I consider a friend, that as we go through storms we must remember that there are many in positions of authority who live Godly lives. They walk upright, and they serve GOD in the beauty of holiness. From a careful study of the Bible, we know a tree by the fruit it bears. The majority of Bishops, Pastors and Saints of GOD are to be commended for their walk. To these men and women, I praise GOD and pray for. I ask that you pray for me, my desire is to live the Psalms 91 life, “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my GOD; in Him will I trust.” Psalms 91:1-2. We must all remember, the battle is not ours, it is the Lord’s. I also remember being reminded of Jerimiah 12:5 ” If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan? ” Saints, no matter what we go through, remember, GOD is in control, He has not been surprised so let us rejoice because GOD, the righteous judge said vengance is mine said the Lord, I will repay.
1 Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide. 2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. 3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth 11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me. 12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD. Psalms 26:1-3,11,12
Father, I pray thee bless the Church of God in Christ: I have given GOD the glory, and I won’t take it back.
Another Emmanuel?
I have recieved information, there is another Emmanuel, where the cases are so simular it is amazing. Although this case was in May of 2003, it appears the pattern was established, if you want the court to take jurisdiction, make it a property rights issue. See for yourselves http://www.marciaoddi.com/cgi-local/blogdocs/Prayer.pdf . On a previous blog I had stated we Pastors and members were caretakers, it looks like the term should be sharecroppers. On one occasion a brother told me “I was Jim Crowed in the south, I didn’t join the church to be Jim Crowed”.
Psalms 83:1-3 1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. 2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. …
Psalms 83:9-12 9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison: 10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth. 11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna: 12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of GOD in possession Psalm 83:1 -3, 9-12
