— “RUN, that ye may obtain” (1 Corinthians 9:24) – Learning to run the right way lest we waste our lives and be found wanting in the end.
Why did the LORD ask this following question to His servant Jeremiah when Jeremiah had complained about the small afflictions he was suffering at the hands of rebellious people who claimed to be God’s people? – “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?” (Jeremiah 12:5) In this podcast we are going to explore the answer to this question and how this applies to us.
It seems the LORD was saying to His servant, prophet Jeremiah: “In order for me to raise you upward to new heights in my will and work, you must first die downward and change, ammend your attitude.”
Like David, during a time of distress, Jeremiah sought the LORD by getting in His Word and was greatly refreshed and reestablished.
“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16
The answer to so many if not most of our problems in this life are solved and/or in the least soothed as we get lost in God’s Word. Personally I like to call the words of God on record in the Bible, His healing oil or the healing oil of Heaven!
No individual will be used of God further than he has allowed the Great Potter to mold and prepare him through a daily walk – the daily cross Jesus commanded (Luke 9:23-24). Greater battles lie just ahead and it’s only those true disciples who prepare themselves now – beginning today – who will be “prepared unto every good work” ahead (2 Timothy 2:21).
“IF (conditional) a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.” 2 Timothy 2:21
Are you submitted to the LORD today? If so, He is making you to be “a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.”
Are you being “prepared” of the LORD today?
For the moment, we live “in the land of peace” and yet great judgments and trials are coming on this sinful land. Those who are “at ease in Zion,” refusing to truly lay down their lives, will be destroyed in the season that lies ahead. Read Amos 6 and Revelation 3:14-21.
“And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.” Joshua 3:5
It’s only as we “sanctify” ourselves today that “to morrow the LORD will do wonders” in and through our lives.
Prayerfully read Ephesians 4 for all it’s worth to learn of the LORD’s plan to mature His blessed body.

“Love Footmen and Horses brother! Good news! Love in Christ.” Dar
“A really interesting thing happened this a.m.. I had opened my tablet to go to a certain site, and as I was navigating to it “Footmen and Horses” popped up on the screen from the sgys site!! So, of course I had to read it. What a blessing! God is good. May the Lord bless you today in extra special and meaningful ways today. ?” Debbie Lord

RECENTLY Vivian and her precious child received the Word of Christ’s Gospel spoken and in print (Jesus tract), and also hot food, hot coffee, and fresh water from a local restuarant as a result of the giving of the saints of Christ. Your love offerings are making this Gospel difference in the lives of many. This giving out of all Christ’s has freely given us warmed the heart and body of this precious family for God’s glory. Oh and this beloved lady, Vivian, was given some cash (pesos).

Thank you for praying.
Abundant ministry to people here in Mexico is transpiring and as a result, there’s the need to print more JESUS tracts in Spanish. This opens opportunity for us all. Perhaps we could print 2500 this time instead of 1500?

God is good all the time as you well know and thank you.

It’s amazing how much God does with so little from us right and how He multiplies it! Remember this? How our unchanging LORD, when He’d multiplied and fed the multitudes with 5 loaves and 2 fishes? Then after He miraculously turned the 5 loaves and 2 fishes into enough food to feed 5,000, there were 12 loaves left over??? See Mark 6:37-44. | NEW: 5 Loaves, 2 Fishes, and 12 Baskets Left Over [podcast]
So that tells us, that reveals that as we give of ourselves – our energies and substance – that God is going to multiply it, in this life and more notably, in glory!
“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:19-21
“Alleluia! All glory to our God who made heaven and earth! Praying everyday for the ministry and His fruitfulness to come forth. And will pray for these new believers who the Lord rescued out of the gates of hell. Praise His holy name!” Karen Cochran

“And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision. 10 Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.” Galatians 2:9-10

Did Jesus come as a celebrity or servant? Read Philippians 2 each morning this week.
“Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.” Matthew 5:42
“Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.” Luke 6:30
“If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. 11 If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; 12 If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?” Proverbs 24:12
FEEDING THE POOR IN SPIRIT AND STOMACH: Because you care, you prayed, you gave….. Cenovio, a homeless man, was treated to the hearing of our LORD’s bless-ed Gospel message, a delicious hot meal, hot coffee, fresh water, and a JESUS tract. It was a super blessed time with this man. Thank God and you!
Would you like to pause and pray for Cenovio? | Mission Mexico
Of Jesus feeding the multitudes, one source notes:
“Jesus fed a large crowd on at least two occasions, most notably feeding 5,000 men plus women and children with five loaves and two fish, and later feeding 4,000 men plus women and children with seven loaves and a few fish. The miracles occurred when Jesus had compassion on the hungry crowds who had been following him, and the food multiplied supernaturally, leaving 12 baskets of leftovers in the first instance and seven in the second.”
