Power of a Testimony!

Trials are testimonies in the making!
if no one says that or repeats that, i still believe it and its true!

our service last night was prophesied that God would really move. the prophesy was there was a black man preaching and the service was just an awesome one! We had a black minister and the service was indeed awesome! God is so awesomely great!!
  • A boy, about 11, received the holy ghost (w/ evidence speaking in tongues!).
  • a girl's foot was healed!
  • 10 (12?) year old Corey Hill was @ Sunday school but not Sunday night. Corey going from no heart function to coming back alive he has an awesome testimony! Pray he gets stronger!
  • Sis. Ford fell & broke 5 ribs BUT through the prayers of the saints shes doing so much better!
  • Sister Mary's Brain collapsed on top her spine, the usual damage for this condition is eyes popping out and seizures BUT she didn't have either! God is restoring her! it was her [step-]son that received the Holy Ghost!
  • another lady has been having trouble with knee-replacements surgery and God is restoring her too!
  • last but not certainly least - Missionary Kid TIMO Simoneaux (click for his blog) who haD spinal meningitis and should be dead is doing so much better - still pray for him though he has balance and he can not hear in his left ear. Timo's aunt tracie has been keeping the world informed of his condition
Healings are for
TODAY'S CHURCH
&
Tomorrow's Church
By HIS stripes we are healed!


with all these testimonies being shared last night it got me thinking of my life and i tried to thank God for everything i could. i was about 10 i wrecked a moped, and hit a tree with a hornet's nest. That nest fell down on me and Today i only have a few scars on my chin, it was through the power and grace of Almighty God that i am here today!

Whats your Test-i-mony?

its not easy being on the Potter's Wheel

I wanted to post this song its a awesome whorship song when you just need to life god up this is a great one. it is sung by Darlene Zschech.


"The Potters Hand"


Beautiful Lord

Wonderful Saviour
I know for sureAll of my days are

Held in your hand

Crafted into your perfect plan




You gently called me

Into your presence

Guiding me byYour Holy Spirit

Teach me dear Lord

To live all of my life

Through your eyes




I'm captured by

Your Holy calling

Set me apart

I know you're drawing

Me to Yourself

Lead me Lord

I pray




Take me, Mould me

Use me, fill me

I give my life to the Potter's hand

Call me. guide meLead me,

walk beside me

I give my life to the Potter's hand




i listened to this because i was going through my notes that i take when peopel preach and a boy my age titled his message


"Its not easy being in the potters hand"


he preached this in like 2004 i think but his text is jeremiah 18:1-6. i started thinking about that message and got that song. that is my cry unto god i wanna be formed by your hands!!


Jeremiah 18:1-6
The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.
Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it. Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.


"potters" is found in: isa 64:8, Je 18:2, Rom 9:21, Rev 2:27


"clay" : "man, as in the hands of god". isa 29:16, 45:9, 64:8, Jer 18:6, Rom 9:21.


----


Isa 45:9 " Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?"


---
Isa 64:8
But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

Thought i would share this,

God bless,

Deny Self, Take Cross, Follow Christ

previous writting: October, 6 2008.
Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Deny self,
Take cross,
Follow Christ.
this is what kept coming to me last night, i read that and it hit me.
  • we are to deny our self.
  • we are to take the cross.
  • we are to follow Christ.
this scripture hit me. when i read it i kept saying it over and over in my mind trying to fully grasp the message there. when Jesus says this it is right after peter told Jesus that he would not go to Jerusalem and suffer many things. He told peter (and rest of the apostles) to deny himself, take up cross and follow Christ.
.
wow what something sticks out to you. here it is in context:
.
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. 22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. 23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
.
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. 26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? 27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. 28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
