COMMENT FROM AN INTERNET CONTRIBUTOR: "HEY PASTOR BILL, YOU SOUND LIKE YOU HAVE AN AGENDA WHEN YOU PREACH!"
YOU BET I DO! (BUT ONLY ONE!) To teach the Truth! To teach that all roads do not lead to Heaven. Only the narrow road, that leads to repentance! Through Obedience to following Jesus Christ as Lord. All other roads lead to hell and destruction (John 8:32).

PRAYER REQUESTS AND PRAISE REPORTS
Pray & Praise for 14 year old Hope: Thank you for your prayers for Hope!! God is answering! Last week Hope we received the following praises! She is doing GREAT with her walking! What a THRILL to watch her! She is working hard and is VERY motivated! She is starting some pool therapy this week to help loosen and strengthen her ankles, feet, and overall range of motion. She is able to go up and down stairs now. She is making great progress and loves being back with all her friends at school. She is doing well academically, also. Her parents are so thankful for all those who are helping to make this possible! Their hearts are overflowing with thankfulness to the Lord for the great work that He is doing in her life!
Praise the Lord: For our two new church members, Ric and Todd.
Praise for: Phyllis, and her family are home safe in Ohio.
Pray for: The many in and around Valley Farms who do not know the Lord as their Lord and Savior,
Pray for: The many in our families and community who are caught up in the cult of Mormonism. Pray their eyes would be opened to the truth of the True Christ. That Christians would see the area in and around Valley Farms as a wide open MISSION FIELD.
PRAY: The Church would not give in to the pressure from the world for Spiritual Correctness, (that is, not confronting the make-believer who claims to be believers), yet they continue in their disobedience, as if the Lord has given them a License to Sin! (1 John 2:19). Pray that the Church would be Strong, yet compassionate in their confrontation.
Pray for: Carol Adams who is going through some trying times!
Pray for: Carol's son Josh.
Pray for: OUR PRESIDENT and VICE PRESIDENT, THEY NEED OUR PRAYERS!!
Pray that: All who are attending the Community Christian Church, as well as all who have ever attended- The Lord Jesus knows who you are, and He knows your needs. We pray that He will meet your every need. If your need is Salvation, and you have not yet accepted the Lord's invitation to join His family of believers by being born again, I pray that today will be the day you make that decision..
Pray that: all who know Jesus as Lord and Savior would start to live as if they do, and will be willing to pay the one debt we owe for our Salvation; that is the debt of LOVE (Romans 13:8)!
Pray: That all men who are called into the pastorate would know the need to study to gain advanced Training into a deeper and broader understanding of the Holy Bible (2 Timothy 2:15)
Pray for: Pastor Bill as he teaches God's Word (1 Timothy 2:2). Also that the congregation would encourage him, and continue to love and encourage one another ( John 13:34).

Prayers rendered for Laura and Keith.......
ReplyDeleteGot Laura and Keith on my prayer list....
ReplyDeleteWill keep Laura and Keith in our prayers! It's so sad when one is diagnosed with cancer. Love you both
ReplyDeleteYes, we do serve a loving powerful God. PTL We will keep Laura and Keith in our prayers.
ReplyDeletePastor Bill and Kathy,
ReplyDeleteWill be praying for Laura. In August a former MK from Kenya experienced the same thing…driving to church one Sunday, left side went numb, thought she was having a stroke (even though she’s in her late 30’s). Went to hospital, sent her to Tampa and Monday morning she was in surgery for a brain tumor. Her's is the fast growing kind and she’s had a 2nd surgery—still waiting to hear. Knowing all our friend has gone through makes it easier to pray for Laura.
Another winner Pastor Bill, I will be looking forward to sharing this with the chew on Sunday.
ReplyDeletePS/We are starting to see signs of Spring. We have a few early calf crop, maybe a good year! Lord Bless you.
A great message Pastor Bill. Pass the word to your friends from the North that it is still Winter up here.
ReplyDeleteYes, we have had prayer for Laura as well as, Keith.
ReplyDeleteThank You for notifying us.
Happy birthday dad, you made it to retirement age-enjoy
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Uncle Bill- Hope you had a good day
ReplyDeleteLove you
Hi PB,
ReplyDeleteI am almost caught up this week.... had to go to Fargo for 2 days on medical with the VA.
Thank You for the message my friend.
You are so right, the letter kills but the Spirit gives life! The Mosaic law is like grabbing concrete! I truly needs to be with a love for the Lord.
I am so glad - He was willing - to take that bitter cup ....... (Had it not been for a place called Mount Calvary) That songs speaks volumes.
I am so thankful for Grace - To serve out of love and not duty.
My boot came off last Monday and I go back for an x-ray in a couple of weeks, Pray the screws are not coming loose.
Keeping Laura (Todd"s cousin's wife) in prayer.
God's Best to You my Friend
