Get Mad if You Wish – I am Simply
Warning You Before it’s too Late!
“This is exactly one very important reason I left the last church I attended faithfully for almost one year. I was on the verge of being homeless and the church knew about this. Not one single soul offered a place in many of their homes for my little girl and I. Much less helped us financially. Of course they were more than willing to pray, but that was it. Now one sister who I was very close to was very close to the pastor’s wife. She had money saved up in the thousands and was getting ready to purchase a cow for the pastor’s wife’s residence as they lived in big houses with lots of acreage like farms. She often came over bragging about how much money she had saved up and what to do with it. She never once offered to help me and my daughter. By the grace of God He answered my prayers for housing and we were not homeless, BUT it was not from any Christian/s or this church that our prayers were answered. It was through a secular, unsaved couple that I did not even know!!! Needless to say I lost all hope and was so hurt by the people of that church and so left. To this day it still hurts and stings. But I can forgive. I just don’t have a desire to be part of that church. I have seen God use the UNsaved to help christians and i believe this is because that is a true sign to the life of those professing God their hearts are hard and stingy that even an unbeliever’s heart is softer sometimes? What do you think? I have seen more help in my life from UNbelievers than believers. It really is a sad thing when UNbelievers are the ones opening up their hearts and pocket books to the saints and christians today. It really is a wake up call isn’t it?” T.S.
Response:
Hello and thank you for sharing this although I must say that this makes me livid. God is going to eternally punish those who aren’t generous with what He has allowed for them to steward and for which they shall be judged. Riches unused for God’s glory will be accounted for by He who sees all. In fact, the LORD told us that those riches are going to testify in court – in the Supreme Court of the Universe before the Ultimate Judge – against those who do not use them for God’s glory (James 5:1-7).
In His Word, the Almighty directly ties together the destiny of our eternal souls with our stewardship. Hell awaits those who aren’t givers – which simply reveals that their hearts and lives are not given over to Christ in a saving relationship. Hell awaits. That is crystal clear in His Word (Luke 16:19-31; Matthew 25:40-46). Remember the man who fared sumptuously (deliciously in comfort and luxury-like 99% of Americans) while Lazarus lacked and yet the man refused to lift a finger to help Lazarus? Where did Jesus say that man went and is today awaiting his appearance at the Great While Throne Judgment where he will be terminated into the very “lake of fire”? (Revelation 20:10-15)
People who can help and refuse are literally going to spend eternity in hell for their evil withholding. They will literally for all eternity wish they had done things differently. This is unbelievable – how little people sell their souls for, thinking they have security in their temporal goods and bank balance. Jesus told one man he had to give it all up – all his wealth (whether much or little) – to follow Christ. Why? – Because the LORD saw that that man’s trust and security was in his money.
In Jesus’ name, I refuse to be quiet about this because it’s all over God’s Word, and, I must preach this part of the whole counsel of God Word so that there is no blood on my hands for not warning (Ezekiel 33). The LORD told us to “Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; 1Ti 6:18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate; 19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.” (1 Timothy 6:17-19)
Regrettably, most who hear this Bible message and warning preached straight from God’s Word, will sadly crassly pass it up as if it didn’t personally apply to them and will stand before God undone. The LORD told us plainly in Luke 16:19-31 that all men “have Moses and the prophets” which simply refers to the written Word of God. The LORD said that’s all we need and that all men are fully accountable to know and obey it or perish. WHAT is the reason for that man going to hell? Go read Luke 16:19-31 and see the exact reason he went to hell and will never again feel comfort for all eternity. The written Word is the final authority of God (Psalms 119; John 10:35; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:12-21). Many will say in their darkened hearts “Well, I really don’t have a lot of money. I’m not as rich as some people and so, I am excused.” Nonsense. These same exact people waste dozens or even hundreds of dollars monthly on any number frivolous things while claiming to have nothing to help others with. God sees right through this evil refusal and when they die and cry out to Him, it will be too late. Read Proverbs 1:18-29.
These same people who claim that they have nothing to give find it very easy to impulse buy and to commit to 40.00 month for the gym membership, 50.00 month for cable or satellite TV, perfumes, accessories, clothes they don’t need, entertainment budget, and little or nothing to help Christians in need or the work of Christ. God sees all of this and will repay (Proverbs 11:24-26).
“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
Now, read this. Could it be any clearer?
“Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. 17 But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? 18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. 19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.” 1 John 3:16-19
“What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.” James 2:14-17
Those who are not generous with what they do have, do not possess saving faith.
Inasmuch as we turn a deaf ear to the needs of God’s children, we are turning away from Christ Himself and plunging headlong into eternal damnation – “Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” (Matthew 25:45-46)
Those who truly belong to Jesus – who came and gave all – are without exception, generous, liberal givers.
“There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. 25 The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. 26 He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.” Proverbs 11:24-26
Empty Your Barn or Go to Hell – The Choice is Yours
“And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. 16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: 17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? 18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. 20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? 21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” Luke 12:15-21
Mad at me? Go for it. You won’t be the first or last. My desire is to please and obey God and to keep you out of hell. If you will choose to repent, worship Him in spirit and in truth, and obey Him, you will reap blessings untold both now and forever. Otherwise, you will pay for your own sins forever in the lake of fire for rejecting the only sacrifice for your sins. Rejecting Christ means you didn’t abide in faith with Him which always – without fail – yields obedient serving.
People who get nervous about the preaching of stewardship reveal that they are serving money and not God. Their money is what they trust while they feign to be trusting Christ. But Jesus said: “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! 24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” (Matthew 6:21-24)
Is the LORD you claim to love and be saved by worth giving Him the first portion of your income? You have contracted to pay and scheduled in your mortgage or rent payment and other things, so ask yourself if God is less or more important than those things. Consider putting God first place in your stewardship and watch what He will do.
“Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: 10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.” Proverbs 3:9-10
FEEDBACK: WOW More Emails About This! This is Staggering!
“Unfortunately, this is too common and is an indictment upon many who claim to be believers.” Edmund A.
“WOW … How sad! I think that people who do not have as much overflow are more willing to give away what they have because they live by faith! So heart breaking when we can share a portion, God would meet that portion and multiply both portions when done with a right spirit.” Cheryl
“The ‘Lake Of Fire’ is Going to Be None to Pleasant for those that had, and refused to Give…Friends.” Nancy L.
“I can RELATE because I was in this lady’s shoes. I belonged to a BIG CHURCH here in Portland OR! I was homeless, living in my car with my 5 year old son at the time…now is 18. They told me that I could sleep in my car in the ‘churches’ back parking lot but I was to leave before the sunrise in the morning. No church would offer any help! Then there was another time I went to the church asking for help…no the pastor told me when I did these 3 things he would help me. 1. get a place to live, 2 get a job 3. come back to church! Well since then I have done all that. I have been on disability since 2008 — I returned to that church to let him see that I have done all of those things. HE wouldn’t even recognize that I was there in the front pew. Woe be unto those pastors that led us astray. Oh Lord have mercy upon them. Since then the Lord has made provision for me. No church has been able to help me or my family. My 18 year old son told me last night that the churches that I raised him in were ‘FAKE’! I didn’t raise him to feel this way BUT I have many, many stories that I can tell about how churches have treated me and my son. I am Caucasian and my children are malato. Tell me what’s wrong in this story?” Deborah S.

Weeping Men Win Men [podcast]
“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves (harvest, eternal reward) with him.” Psalms 126:5-6
“The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.” Psalms 34:18
“The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.” Psalms 51:17
“Blessed are the poor in spirit (desperate for God): for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3
“Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4
The words “mourn” and “mourning” appear 96 times in God’s Word. Ever heard a message on it?
“Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:9-10
“Excellent message/podcast! Thank you. Makes me think of Matthew 5:4 “Blessed are those who mourn: for they shall be comforted.” We mourn as God shows us our evil wicked flesh. And see how much we are not like Him. As He begins to transform us into the image of Christ, all of the sudden, we begin to be filled with the compassion of Christ. And we see through the eyes of Jesus that the lost are without a shepherd! And need Jesus. Anyone who calls themselves a Christian and has not died to self will never have the eyes of Christ because they are still looking through the lens of self.” Karen Cochran
“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Matthew 5:6
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16
“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10
“Sowing in tears suggests a time of hardship or distress, possibly due to famine, exile, or personal trials. The imagery of sowing is often used in Scripture to represent the act of investing or laboring in faith, even when circumstances are difficult. This can be connected to the Israelites’ return from Babylonian exile, a period marked by sorrow and uncertainty. The tears symbolize the pain and suffering endured during such times, yet they also imply hope and trust in God’s promises. The act of sowing, despite tears, indicates faith in a future harvest, a theme echoed in Galatians 6:9, which encourages perseverance in doing good.
will reap with shouts of joy
Reaping with joy signifies the fulfillment of God’s promises and the reward for faithful endurance. The transformation from tears to joy highlights the redemptive power of God, who turns mourning into dancing (Psalm 30:11). This phrase assures believers that their labor and suffering are not in vain, as God will ultimately bring about a joyful harvest. The joy of reaping is not just personal but communal, reflecting the collective celebration of God’s people when His promises are realized. This concept is seen in the return of the exiles to Jerusalem, where their restoration was marked by joy and thanksgiving. The imagery also points to the eschatological hope found in Revelation 21:4, where God wipes away every tear, and eternal joy is established. The phrase can be seen as a type of Christ, who endured the cross for the joy set before Him (Hebrews 12:2), illustrating the ultimate sowing in tears and reaping in joy.”
“Psalms 126:5
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy – This is either a maxim which they gather from their own history, or it is a fact which they are now witnessing. We see the benefit of humbling ourselves under the mighty hand of God; we have now a sweet return for our bitter tears. Or, We have sown in tears; now we reap in joy. We are restored after a long and afflicting captivity to our own country, to peace, and to happiness.” Adam Clarke
“126:5, 6 The first year after their return would be especially difficult. There would be no crops to harvest right away. They would have to make a fresh start by planting their crops and waiting for harvest time. It would be a period of austerity, of doling out the meager food supplies as frugally as possible.
There would be a certain sorrow or frustration about sowing the seed for that first crop. Here is a farmer whose barrel of grain is low. He can use the grain to feed his family now or he can sow most of it in hope of an abundant supply in days to come. He decides to sow it, but as he dips his hand into his apron and scatters the seed over the plowed land, his tears fall into the apron. He is thinking of his wife and children, of the skimpy bowls of porridge, of how sacrificially they will have to live in the days till harvest. He feels as if he is taking food out of their mouths.
But a cheering word goes out to the returned exiles:
He who continually goes forth weeping, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him. So they go forth and sow the seed. Their present anguish will be more than compensated by the joy of bringing their sheaves of ripened grain to the barn.
The principle applies also, of course, in the spiritual realm. Those who live sacrificially for the spread of the gospel may endure present privation, but what is that compared to the joy of seeing souls saved and in heaven worshiping the Lamb of God forever and forever?
It is true also in the matter of soul winning. Someone has wisely said, ‘Winners of souls are first weepers for souls.’ So our prayer should be:
Let me look on the crowd as my Savior did,
Till my eyes with tears grow dim.
Let me view with pity the wandering sheep
And love them for love of Him.”
—Author unknown” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.” Proverbs 11:30
“Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.” Psalms 2:8
You are the LORD’s—”Ye are bought with a price”
“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Many who were bought by the precious blood of Jesus are now serving mere men – they are serving men who are building their own kingdom instead of Christ’s kingdom.
“Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.” 1 Corinthians 7:23
JESUS did not come and die on the cross and rise again from the dead to make you a “good church member” or so you could squander your one life on politics. “Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God” (Luke 9:60). If you are not actively seeking His face for and participating in executing His Great Commission mandate, you are out of the will of God (Matthew 28; 18-20; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 24:47; Book of Acts). Read that again. Share.
All who committed to Christ are absolutely committed to His stated will—the Great Commission.
“Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.” Luke 9:60
Jesus repeatedly declares to us the commission He’s sent us on and for which we shall all give personal account.
“Go thou and preach the kingdom of God.” Luke 9:60
All who committed to Christ are absolutely committed to His stated will—the Great Commission.
Those who have forgotten, and are not obeying Christ’s Great Commission command, clearly reveal that they have forgotten and departed from Christ. Matthew 7:21
“And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. 4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” Daniel 12:3-4
“It seems the remnant is sensing the urgency of responding to God’s call as they see the hour is late. They are seeing the need to invest in things that are lasting and eternal not temporal. Satan knowing his time is short is coming down with great fury and wrath and will manifest himself with great intensity (Revelation 12:12). As we are beginning to see, Satan wants to take as many souls with him into the eternal flames as possible. Be awakened to the Great Commission that the Lord has called us to (Matthew 28:18-20). Win souls to Jesus so they can be in Glory with Him forever and not burning in the eternal flames of fire from which there is no escape.” Karen Cochran
The Harvest Is Plentiful, the Laborers Few
“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. 36 But when he saw the multitudes, HE WAS MOVED WITH COMPASSION ON THEM, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:35-38
Jesus’ compassion that HE puts in us immediately causes them to respond to Him… endears them to Him as their hearts are crying out for Him and His mercy. Amen.
ARE THOSE not engrossed in the Great Commission mandate of Jesus, wasting their one life on earth? Read that again and repent. Obey God. Read the end of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Then Acts. Now.
Let’s roll saints! Ministry updates.
“People are more sold out and supporting politics than surrendering to Jesus Christ and supporting sharing the Gospel. Temporal over eternal is wrong every time.” Dana Phyllis Carter
IF you are not participating in the the “Father’s business,” the Great Commission, it’s because you are full of your self, evil hearted, self-centered….. and in need of true repentance before it’s too late—which will always bring forth the fruit of obedience, of good works, of Great Commission action (Matthew 3:7-10). Repent now and when you do, for real, you are going to scamper, hasten, to fervently seek the face of the Almighty and be all about HIS business, not your own. The reason you’ve been doing your own business and not His, is because you do not know Him (Matthew 7:21). The Great Commission mandate is seen here Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 2:49; 24:47, 49; Book of Acts.
When God matters to you, when you love Him, truly, His work, His mission matters to you.
IF you claim to be saved and aren’t doing YOUR part in the Great Commission…. it’s time to repent. Anyone not doing the mission of Christ is lukewarm at best.
The true remnant body of Christ is about the “Father’s business” of edifying the saints and winning the lost—not their own or any other business. While on earth Jesus said “I must be about my Father’s business” and those who are truly following Him are doing the same (Luke 2:49).
May all who are godly pray for increase in order to increase Christ’s kingdom and not their own standard of living in this fleeting sinful world but rather their standard of giving to His work so others can be saved and the saints of Christ equipped, nourished, fed, fruitful and blessed (2 Corinthians 9:6-11; Ephesians 4:28).
“But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.” Deuteronomy 8:18
The Great Commission is the Father’s Business and all who are known of Christ are participating. Notice how if you are truly a member of Christ’s bride, you are busy about HIS business—“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely” (Revlation 22:17).
All of God’s people are LOSERS …. We lose, we give up our own lives in this world to gain HIS—resurrection life now and forever.
As God is stripping us through the daily cross life, the persecutions, the fruit-bearing resurrection victory is going to transpire in our lives!
“As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” Romans 8:36-37
“I welcome His stripping. Throw me in the fire of affliction dear Lord. Because the more of His resurrection life is breathed into you the more you want!” Karen Cochran
The Great Commission: Jesus is Holding YOU Accountable to participate with the other members of His remnant body.
Weeping Men also Protect Others, Protect Christ’s Body
Here’s the passage—please read this carefully:
“(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) 20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.” Philippians 3:18-21
The 3 Ways God’s People Participate in Christ’s Great Commission
1. Praying for Christ’s labourers (Matthew 9:35-38).
2. Witnessing, sowing and communicating the Word (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15; Luke 8:11).
3. Supporting, supplying those of God’s people who are doing His Great Commission, preaching the Word (Matthew 6:1-21; 2 Corinthians 9:6-11; Philippians 2:25; 4:16-20).
YOUR PRAYER
Father, in Jesus’ name, please grant Your people that heart of flesh to be “moved with compassion” upon those who do not yet have You as their Great Shepherd. Break me dear LORD, please. Use me for Your glory in this last hour as we are on the precipice of Your return dear LORD, Master Jesus! In Jesus’ name.

“Lord, I Believe; Help Thou Mine Unbelief” [podcast]
“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. 24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.” Mark 9:23-24
God wants us to depend on HIM, not self. What a prayer from this father who was seeking Jesus for his possessed, embattled son!
“And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.” Mark 9:24
Now that is a great prayer for us today—“Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.” Mark 9:24
Is this not kin to the prayer Christ’s disciples prayed to Him—“And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith” (Luke 17:5) ?
Some ask “Lord, how can I increase MY faith?”
Read that again.
It’s not how I can increase my faith! No. That is all self-centered. We pray as did the apostles, “Lord, Increase our faith.” In other words, You do it please dear LORD!
There are two ways the Word prescribes that we walk in more faith:
Asking for it (Luke 17:5)
Reading and heeding the Word for it—“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17).
“9:24 The father expressed the paradox of faith and unbelief experienced by God’s people in all ages. ‘Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!’ We want to believe, yet find ourselves filled with doubt. We hate this inward, unreasonable contradiction, yet seem to fight it in vain.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
Another person commenting on this text writes:
“Help thou mine unbelief – That is, assist me against it. Give me a power to believe.”
“[Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief] A prayer that all can pray with great profit.” Dake
“VII. The profession of faith which the poor man made hereupon (Mrk_9:24); He cried out, ‘Lord, I believe; I am fully persuaded both of thy power and of thy pity; my cure shall not be prevented by the want of faith; Lord, I believe.’ He adds a prayer for grace to enable him more firmly to rely upon the assurances he had of the ability and willingness of Christ to save; Help thou my unbelief. Note, 1. Even those who through grace can say, Lord, I believe, have reason to complain of their unbelief; that they cannot so readily apply to themselves, and their own case, the word of Christ as they should, no so cheerfully depend upon it. 2. Those that complain of unbelief, must look up to Christ for grace to help them against it, and his grace shall be sufficient for them. ‘Help mine unbelief, help me to a pardon for it, help me with power against it; help out what is wanting in my faith with thy grace, the strength of which is perfected in our weakness.’ Matthew Henry
Learning to trust and depend upon our LORD:
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:5-8
“I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.” John 15:5
“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11:6
“And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.” Mark 10:27
“All it takes is a mustard seed of faith to move mountains. Meaning even the smallest of faith can do miracles. It is belief in God not in self that matters. Mark 11:22 says ‘Have faith in God.’ He will provide the increase. Even the disciples prayed for more faith! And we know them to be men of great faith!” Karen Cochran
LET’S PRAY: Holy Father, we come to You now, because we know You are our Source for all blessings and answered prayer. Yet, we lack faith and ask You now to “Increase our faith” and to “help thou mine unbelief.” Please fill in dear LORD where we lack, where we are weak. We know You are all powerful, loving, and desire to and are ready to answer our prayers. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
