Comfort in the Arms of My Savior	Sep 20, 2010 8:58 pm 1119 Views
Music is my solace and God speaks to me strongly through the lyrics of christian music. To be safe in the arms of my Savior is my need just now. This song really speaks to my needs and how Jesus's Love will always be there for me. THE ARMS OF MY SAVIOR by Lincoln Brewster When I'm all alone And the weight of the world Is more than I can bear on my own When all my plans have failed And I've suffered defeat I'm down on my knees I can't get to my feet Your love breaks through And reminds me of the hope that I have in You There's no other place that I'd rather be Than safe in the arms the arms of my Savior There's no other place where I can be free So I run to the arms the arms of my Savior When I'm feelin' overwhelmed Like I can't take anymore I've thrown up my hands All I see is the floor I look to the north the south west and the east But as far as I can see I can't find any peace Then Your grace breaks through And reminds me of the hope that I have in You Life shouldn't feel like something to dread I know You still know how many hairs are on my head And so I run to You and so I run to You There's no other place that I'd rather be Than safe in the arms the arms of my Savior There's no other place where I can be free So I run to the arms the arms of my Savior

VENGEANCE? Koran Burning? GOD'S WORD	Sep 12, 2010 1:09 am 1128 Views
"It is mine to avenge; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; their day of disaster is near and their doom rushes upon them." Deuteronomy 32,v35. "Do not say, "I'll pay you back for this wrong!" Wait for the Lord, and He will deliver you." Proverbs 20,v22. "Because the Philistines acted in vengeance and took revenge with malice in their hearts, and with ancient hostility sought to destroy Judah, therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am about to stretch out my hand against the Philistines...I will carry out great vengeance on them and punish them in my wrath. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I take vengeance on them." Ezekiel 25,v15-17. "THE LORD WILL FIGHT FOR YOU; YOU NEED ONLY TO BE STILL." Exodus 14,v14. "Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord. Leviticus 19,v18. "Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friend, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay, says the Lord. On the contrary: If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he thirsty, give him something to drink In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Romans 12,v17-21. "Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else. Avoid every kind of evil." 1Thessalonians 5,v15&22 "Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a Blessing. Even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. In your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. and respect 1Peter 3,v9&14-15. "Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else. Avoid every kind of evil." 1Thessalonians 5,v15&22. "But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. Matthew 5,v44. "At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other...Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved." Matthew 24,v10&12. THE HEAVEN’S ARE CALLING by Sacred Warrior Behold Jesus said that the road that leads to destruction is broad And the gate to eternal life is narrow And satan seeks to destroy this world And many do follow him mocking and scorning the name of Jesus But it is written Vengeance is mine thus sayeth the Lord of hosts As the voices of the heavens are calling Our God is calling for the time He comes is near When He will rule throughout the land Then the confusion in your head will soon be clear As the voices of the heavens are calling Ohh the heavens are calling Ohh so give glory to the King Everyone shall see Him open up the clouds Even those who pierced His name Then all the people of the earth shall mourn Because they'll see that He is the One Ohh the heavens are calling Ohh so give glory to the King Won't you join us all you people Behold He's coming from above Father's wrath upon His hands All the kings shall bow and all authority shall fall For it is said that your worldly possessions shall fade away But in His kingdom what you'll have is here to stay See the lights shine on the shadows of the world Seven scrolls of wrath are poured upon this land forevermore Our God is calling for the time He comes is near When He will rule throughout the land Then all the people of the earth shall mourn Because they'll see that He is the One Ohh the heavens are calling Ohh so give glory to the King

Spiritual Growth in Christ	Sep 8, 2010 7:32 pm 1155 Views
The variations of our spiritual life. Wanting growth, fighting stagnation; Wanting Holiness, fighting temptation; Wars of the spiritual kind... For our very souls. Oh what turmoil and strife Can try to consume and discourage Our spiritual life- God is patient, He is unchanging and Faithful to carry us When we feel unsure. He is our strength Our rock and fortress, The Redeemer of our souls. He is an awesome God Of love and forgiveness. The Holy shed BloodOf Jesus Saves my life. He lifts my head, When sadness and sorrow I am feeling. His love fills my soul With spiritual gladness and joy. Oh, God of all Comfort And Holy Wisdom; Instill in me today The Hunger and Thirst, The Yearning for Your Holy And Powerful Way. "And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not journey on it; it will be for those who walk in that Way; wicked fools will not go about on it. No lion will be there; they will not be found there.But only the redeemed will walk there, and the ransomed of the Lord will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads.Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away." Isaiah 35:8-10.

Pray for Meow(Pete)	Aug 30, 2010 9:31 pm 1328 Views
I feel the Holy Spirit guiding me to ask all believers in Christ to pray fervently for Pete(Meow). Pete is a man who blessed the blogs and made use search ourselves and he challenged us to be ever growing in our relationship with the Lord. Pete is hurting! Pete is depressed! Pete feels he has no purpose! He wants to go to his heavenly home. Read his current blogs. Read his past blogs. He has contributed faithfully at BC for years.Let us be of one accord and help Pete. GOD IS NOT FINISHED WITH HIM-GOD STILL NEEDS HIM TO BE LIGHT IN THE WORLD! PLEASE BC, LET US UNDERGIRD AND LIFT THIS MAN UP IN PRAYER THAT HE WILL FEEL REVIVAL WITHIN HIS SOUL. Burying ? Watch Post \| Post a comment meow33744 1/4/2009 4:25 pm [post a] Last Read: 1/5/2009 10:06 pm Will at least one life change because of what you will allow Jesus to do through you this year sometime ? Do you expect God to change the life of someone this year, through you? Do you expect God to influence quite a few people this year through you? Will you allow God 100 percent access? Can God work with less than 100 percent access? Can God bless you less than 100 percent? Does God work this way? If we gave God less than 100 percent, what could we expect? Especially since we purposefully held back? What does God not know? Can we hide talents in the ground and expect anything good of it? Say we buried our God given gifts, talents, skills, possessions, money and sundry of other things, using less than 100 percent toward His Kingdom, what would our return be? Good and faithful servant, and or much less? God does not need us. God loves us. God wants. Obedience. Every day. 2009 too. Know ? Yes ? ? . Observing Meow ? Meow? Fail as I may, attempting to be consistent, saved by grace unto good works, are you? When we were redeemed, we were called to make disciples, raising them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord, so they in turn may do likewise. Without Absolute Truth, there are only lies disguised as truth, if you know not the Absolute Truth and it is NOT within you, you will embrace a relative truth that fits your eternity, that is now presently before you. Saying I am sorry is WORTHLESS without real repentance. True or FALSE ? Without a personal and intimate relationship with God, how can you ever realize the true identity and person of God? Continue to be faithful, deliverance is near, obedience must be seen, be an unconditional blessing as He continues to bless you. This time is short, serve Him well, serving all. No exceptions. Know ? Yes ? ? For me to live is Christ and to die is gain. Meow? See this actual post from the post at: Burying ?

A Tribute for Pam--an encouraging Light for God	Aug 30, 2010 8:19 pm 911 Views
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints. O Lord I am your servant...you have freed me from my chains. Psalm 116.15-16. A precious Godly saint of God will join our Heavenly Father very soon. SOMETIMES HE COMES IN THE CLOUDS by Steven Curtis Chapman These are the places I was so sure I'd find Him I looked in the pages, and I looked down on my knees I lifted my eyes in expectation To see the sun still refusing to shine, But... CHORUS: Sometimes He comes in the clouds Sometimes His face can not be found Sometimes the sky is dark and gray But some things can only be known And sometimes out faith can only grow When we can't see So sometimes he comes in the clouds Sometimes I see me, a sailor out on the ocean So brave and so sure, as long as the skies are clear But when the clouds do gather I watch my faith turn to fear, But... Sometimes He comes in the clouds Sometimes His face can not be found Sometimes the sky is dark and gray But some things can only be known And sometimes our faith can only grow Sometimes he comes in the rain And we question the pain And wonder why God can seem so far away But time will show us, he was right there with us, and... Sometimes He comes in the clouds Sometimes His face can not be found Sometimes the sky is dark and gray But some things can only be known And sometimes our faith can only grow WE LOVE YOU PAM! I am a oncology nurse of 30 years and am so thankful that God chose me to be a servant in such a raw and intimate time in a person's life. My patients fight cancer with great bravery and I receive so many Blessings from them. I learn so much about God and His love through my patients. Praise Be To God-All Glory and Honor to Him Who Reigns On High!

ARE WE SEEKING THE LOST LAMB	Aug 28, 2010 6:57 pm 1037 Views
Are we being light amidst the darkness of this world? Are others drawn to Christ by the Christ they see in our life? Are our actions and reactions Christlike? Are we truly seeking the lost, not wanting anyone to perish? "Do you understand what I have done for you?" he asked them. "You call me 'Teacher' and 'Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now tha I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. I tell you the truth, no servant is greather than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them." John13:12-17 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. Colossians3:2-3 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. 2Peter 3:8-9 Be merciful to those who doubt; snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear-hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh. Jude 1:22-23 "Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep. I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent." Luke 15:6-7

Giving All To God	Aug 26, 2010 1:17 am 1163 Views
Obedience in all areas of Life. Is all in my life dedicated and submitted to the Will of God? If I hold back any part, not giving ALL to God.... Then I can expect some separateness from God and miss out on the Blessings he intends for me? My human nature wants to be in control, I can do this.... Have I asked God if it is okay, and in his will? If God reigns supreme in my life, I will want him involved in ALL things of my life. God help my heart and soul to be consumed by your presence, your guidance, your faithfulness, your Holy Word and the peace that comes from all of this. May you reside in me, and may I live my Life for your Holy Purposes.

PEACE	Aug 23, 2010 1:17 am 1156 Views
PURSUE PEACE "Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it." Psalm 3,v14 "Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification." Romans 14,v19 "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God." Matthew 5,v9 Work hard at being a peacemaker. Take the initiative to be a peacemaker even when you are wronged. EMPATHIZE WITH THEIR FEELINGS "Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of suffering." 1Peter 5, v8-9 "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider other better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interest, but also to the interest of others." Philippians 2,v3-4 Focus on the needs of others. Listen without lecturing. Make an effort to understand. ATTACK THE PROBLEM, NOT THE PERSON "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. Be kind compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Ephesians 4, v29,32 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven." Luke 6,v37 "'Everything is permissible'--but not everything is beneficial. 'Everything is permissible'--but not everything is constructive. Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others. Do not cause anyone to stumble." 1Corinthians 10,v23-24,32 "Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. Galatians 6,v10 Don't compare. Don't condemn. Don't threaten or command. Don't condescend. Don't contradict or interrupt. Don't confuse. Stay on topic. Consider Compromise "But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness." James 3,v17-18 "We have different gifts, according to the grace given us." Romans 12,v6 Use the wisdom of God, when considering compromise. EMPHASIZE RECONCILIATION, NOT NECESSARILY RESOLUTION "Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as membersof one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom." Colossians 3,v15-16 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation." 2Corinthians 5,v17-18 "Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace." Ephesians 4,v3 Reconciliation is, to be a peacemaker and re-establish the relationship. Does not mean all issues have to be or are resolved.
