Men Prepare Sermons; God Prepares Men

2nd Timothy 2:15

"The proper place for a ship to be is in the water, but if the water gets into the ship, the ship will sink. The proper place for the church is in the world,

BUT IF THE 'WORLD' GETS INTO THE CHURCH,

THE CHURCH WILL GO DOWN IN DISGRACE!"

Thank you for taking the time to view our blog;we look forward to reading your comments. DVDs of our services are available upon request. We covet your prayers and friendship. In His Service and For His Glory, Pastor Bill & Kathy ...
"Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness...But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve...But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."-Joshua 24:14-15

Is God Calling You to be a Pastor?

The right kind of education is essential to the man who has answered God's call. No army dare send a soldier into battle without proper training. The results would be devastating, not only for the warrior, but for the war.

PRAYER REQUESTS AND PRAISE REPORTS


Pray for: Todd Ovitt as he takes the rains as Pastor of the Community Church; pray that the Lord's will to be done concerning the direction leadership takes the Community Christian Church into the future.

Pray for: Pastor Bill and his wife Kathy as they set out on a new adventure the Lord has called them to.

Pray for: Lori King who will continue radiation treatments this week to make sure that the tumor that was in her brain is all gone. She will have treatments 5 days a week for 6 weeks. Pray for her husband Doug and her children Miles and Violet and parents Dal and Carrie King as she goes through these treatments.

Pray for:  Pastor Bill and Kathy for our health and the Lord's will as we seek His continuous leading for our life.

Pray for:  For our nation that once more we would truly be "One Nation, indivisible, under God with liberty and justice for all."  But God cannot bless sin.  We must understand that.

Pray for:  Our Churches, the Kingdom of God, that all who claim the name of Christ return to the Church.  Apart from God, politicians will never get this country back on track.  Repentance is necessary.

Pray for:  Todd, as he continues to visit Mayo Clinic regarding his health.

Pray for: Our Missionaries, as they labor for the Lord.

Pray that: It would be understood, that alone, as an individual, you are not the Church, not Until We, as Believers, Gather Together in His Name, as a Congregation, do we become a Church; the Bride of Christ! COME TO CHURCH! Hebrews 10: 24-25.

Praise for: The fear has subsided in our land; in our nation, state and city, as our trust once again is turned to the God of all creation.  FEAR NOT!  For I am with you says the Lord God! 

PRAY FOR: The many that are unsaved, in and around Valley Farms. Rebuke, and hold back the ungodly cult of Mormonism. These people who have turned their backs on the true Jesus, and there-fore are by no means saved, but are on their way to an Eternity in HELL!

PRAY FOR: Salvation for OUR PRESIDENT and VICE PRESIDENT.

PRAY THAT: All who claim to know Jesus as Lord and Savior would start to live as if He is Real in their lives and will be willing to pay the one debt, we all owe for our Salvation; that is the debt of LOVE to the Lord Jesus (Romans 13:8)!

PRAY FOR ALL CONCERNED: As Pastor Bill teaches God's Word (1 Timothy 2:2). As he teaches the Truth of God's word and rebukes all false gospels. Pray that many would respond to the Truth of God's Word in love and truth.

FYI

SALVATION: Not only to Eternity in Heaven, but from Eternity in Hell! You MUST, first of all: Humble yourself and Admit You Are a Sinner in Need of a Savior:

* Mark 1:15 "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."

•James 2:10 “For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.”

•Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

•Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Accept God’s Love through the/Sacrifice in His Son Jesus
•Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

Turn to God in Repentance
•Acts 20:21 “solemnly testifying to both Jews and Greeks of repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Trust the Fullness Jesus Christ!
•Romans 10:9 “that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;"

•Romans 10:13 “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

•Romans 10:14 “How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?"

•Romans 10:17 “So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ."

•Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me (God) and find Me when you search for Me with all your (being) heart.”

It may not be easy to give up your old sinful ways and turn in faith to Jesus Christ; but it is the ONLY way to SALVATION, AND IT IS WORTH IT!


 CALL UPON (THE FULLNESS OF) THE NAME OF JESUS AND YOU WILL BE SAVED!

Dr. William Perry is a prolific writer of outstanding books. His titles for Newburgh Press thus far are Christians Helping Christians, Christian Counseling for the 21st Century and Theology for the 21st Century. Each book is a must for every reader of solid Christian material.
I am happy to endorse Dr. Perry’s latest treasure, “A Journey Through The Gospels.” Every student and preacher/teacher of the Bible needs this book for the desk or the bedside table. You will enjoy reading insights  and valuable lessons that many casual readers of the Bible will miss.

While this book is not lengthy you will find a delightful study of each gospel that will make you appreciate the wonderful gospel stories and love Jesus even more.

  6. Once more pushing this rig across the nation, over the Rockies, through the night. Blessings for an affirming message. When I'm home we all attend our local church. My wife and young'ns' go to church for the 10:30 service. Blessing for keeping me company through this long ride.

    More weather is upon us. I don't go outside much anymore any way. But, it would be nice to see some sunshine. Wonderful message! We are, some of the ladies, and one gentleman in our building gather in the common area of our building and hook up to the TV and internet, I'm not sure how they do it, but it works, so far. We talk about our times of being involved in our church, your teaching is good for us. It would be nice if we could encourage a local pastor to drop by once in a while, but none seem to be interested. Blessings to you- If you have a nursing home close by, perhaps you might see if you can have permission to drop by once in a while. I'm sure it would be apricated. Blessings to you all.

  9. To All Concerned Citizens of this Great Nation: the United States of America,

    As I was up in my quiet time, my heart is heavy, yet encouraged. I have come to the conclusion that this Nation will never get back on track until we as the Church, the ones that are called by His Name "Christians" "will humble our/themselves, repent of our/their wicked ways" (2 Chronicles 7:14) and fill the Church on the Lord's Day, which is Sunday, put Jesus Christ on the throne, let Him lead as was the case of our founding fathers in the creation of this Great Nation. Until that happens, and it can happen, and I believe it will happen if we who know this will humble ourselves and pray for revival, and starting with "me" "us" acting as if it is, and knowing it is the most important thing we have ever done apart from salvation. To pray as an individual, as a family, and absolutely yes, join with other like-minded Christians in corporate prayer. Then the Lord will hear from Heaven and heal our land.

    Today is the day... we need to get the word out... Time is of the essence...

  12. Jim - Response to "Our Nation"September 20, 2023 at 9:18 AM

    I agree - the church should be setting the example and leading out on this. Unfortunately the “church” the public sees are the big mega churches that tend to cater to public opinion and current trends to be popular and to be liked in order to draw more to themselves. Hillsong, Bethel, etc,…. The smaller more scripturally committed churches are overshadowed by these Goliaths.
