WHEN there’s a crisis, Christ is at hand to pour out His love and mercy. – “grace did much more abound” (Romans 5:20). Where there’s true repentance and faith, there will always be divine grace abounding! The darker the day, the crisis, the season, the brighter Christ’s light shines!
When the light of divine truth fills our own lives, it will be resident to be shone unto others.
“Let Your Light So Shine.” Matthew 5:16
GOD didn’t send us to marvel at all the increasing darkness of this world. No, in fact, He warned us it would be this way before His return, and yet, commanded that we “Preach the gospel to every creature” as we eagerly await His soon return (Mark 16:15-20). Why curse the darkness when we can obey Jesus by shining His light into the midst of it?
TELLING THE TRUTH THAT OFFENDS AND UPENDS HYPOCRITES IS PURE CHRISTLIKENESS! (Matthew 21; 23; John 2, 8, etc.) IN FACT, YOU KNOW THE LIGHT OF TRUTH HIT A DARKENED HEART WHEN THEY ATTACK YOU!!! REJOICE! Matt 5:10-12
“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.” Matthew 5:10-12
“There is a glow and a spiritual fragrance about the life of a person who is Spirit filled that is unlike anything found in natural man. The beauty of divine holiness ought to be radiated from all Christians. It is always seen in the lives of those who are truly controlled by the Spirit.” G. Christian Weiss, Insights into Bible Times and Customs
YOU are called to expose darkness! Obey Jesus now! (Ephesian 5:11) DID GOD ever tell you to have mercy on Satan or go easy on him? NO! And He never will! Shine the light of Satan’s human agents! (Ephesians 5:11) Turn the light lose on the prince of darkness and watch him run like a roach!
ANYthing and ANYone being used of Satan to deceive this generation is fair game for the body of Christ to expose – in ANY realm of society! Turn on the light saints – by preaching the light of holy truth! Unleash the power of the convicting Law and saving Gospel of Christ! “Preach the Word” and “rejoice” when you are persecuted for it! (Matthew 5:10-12; 2 Timothy 4:2)
YOU will never discern and overcome the prince of darkness as long as you remain in darkness! (John 3:19-21; Ephesians 5:7-12)
May God vanquish all darkness in our own hearts, filling, flooding us with His holy light.
“Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!” John 1:47
“HAVING NO PART DARK”
“If thy whole body therefore be full of light, HAVING NO PART DARK, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.” Luke 11:36
WHERE EVER you see Satan’s agents, expose them!
“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove (expose, shine the light on) them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. 13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.” Ephesians 5:11
WHENEVER you shine the light on the devil and his deeds of darkness and dark human agents, it’s a divine mission of mercy to help those who choose to have eyes to see what’s really going on! It’s time to turn on the flood lights!
It’s to Satan’s advantage that his human agents are kept hidden. What will you do about that? (Genesis 3:1; 2 Corinthians 2:11; 1 Peter 5:8, etc.)
You are here in part to expose the works of darkness in order to help those trapped in it to be delivered! Ephesians 5:11
Satan’s agents are simply those doing his work-stealing, killing, destroying! John 10:10
—– SO, is God more glorified when His children (or those claiming to be) protest paganism OR when they use this time of the year when there are many gatherings, to shine the light of Christ’s Gospel into the hearts of fallen men? … In the divine economy, is it holy to 1) protest Christmas, or, 2) to be the “ambassador” all new creatures in Christ are to be? (2 Corinthians 5:17-20)
Are you baptized with the Holy Ghost? (Acts 1:8) If not, you are not YET equipped by God to do His work. The LORD desires to baptize with his holy Spirit. HOLY GHOST BAPTISM
Is God proud of us when we protest Christmas? OR, is He angry with us when we are not using this as another occasion to shine His light into the darkness?
GOD alone pulls back the veil that blinds when the individual turns his heart to the LORD in repentance – 2 Corinthians 3:14-18.
So you see that most of Christmas is pagan? That doesn’t make you smart because such is obvious. In fact, all the world is in wickedness and paganism – 24/7/365 – not just in December!
There is no hint of justifying or condoning or partaking of sin. No, darkness is to be exposed – God’s way! The way of Heaven’s Chief Ambassador – the very Captain of our salvation! (Hebrews 2:10) …. Oh and actually, perhaps the worst sin is when God’s own people refuse to obey Him and get caught in the trap of simply protesting everything…. and do nothing to bear fruit by getting sinners saved. That’s what we call the Great Commission.
Could there be in us an evil sense of self-righteousness when we condemn others, vainly believing that makes us righteous or holy?
Did Jesus come to the earth to condemn and protest sinners OR did He come to save them?
“For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:17
Jesus saves. That’s exactly what He came to do. That’s exactly why He saved and sent us.
“As my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” John 20:21
Did Christ come and curse the darkness? Or, did He come as “the light of the world” to shine His holy light into the darkened hearts of men and save them into His eternal family?
Is the Son of God surprised at a world of sinners He personally came and died for? Did Jesus protest paganism when He came?
If Jesus didn’t, could this not be a message to us? Could this not reveal that protesting can be counter-productive?
“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10
Are we surprised that sinners sin or live in perpetual sin? Well that’s all sinners can do is sin … until a saint communicates Christ’s glorious, saving Gospel so they can repent and believe on Him.
Why would any mature disciple of Jesus be surprised at sin in this fallen world? Don’t we live in a world of sinners and are we not here to give them the only Solution?
Food for thought: Do you know of anyone who ever got saved due to the protesting of Christians?
Please pray and listen to our LORD’s message here below. What is He seeking to convey to our hearts in these words?
“Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:13-16
Many today boast in what they DON’T do. Yet, we must ask ourselves, JUST WHAT am I DOING in obedience to the LORD I claim to serve?
“And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” Luke 6:46
Did Jesus ever say anything like, “Go ye into all the world and protest sin and sinners”? No.
Instead, Christ came and died for us – sinners – and then sent us to reach our world of sinners.
It is astounding how many professing Christians have nothing more than protests in their hearts and lives. They judge and condemn others and yet do nothing to seek out and get saved those who are lost. This is very ugly in the eyes of God. Their “righteousness” is completely false and self-centered. If they were truly in Christ’s cross, a resurrecting power from on High would be impelling them to do what Jesus sent His people to do – “GO ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” (Mark 16:15)
Do we call Jesus’ command the Great Commission or the Great Protest?
If Christ would have protested sinners and a sinful world, He would never have come to pay the price to make saints out of sinners. If He had protested He’d have done nothing to solve that dilemma. Do we produce any fruit by protesting? OR, are we fruitful when we obey Christ and “Go”? (Mark 16:15-20; John 4:35-38)
Have you led anyone to Jesus lately?
—- Protest or Preach? Did the earliest saints protest or preach Christ, His Word, and His Gospel? It’s sad to see that so many are identified by what they are against instead of being identified with Christ by preaching Christ and His glorious Gospel. Preaching, not Protesting!

Lay Up For Yourselves Treasures in Heaven [podcast]
“LAY UP FOR YOURSELVES”
The only wealth that will last, forever, is that which is gained by obeying God in this life – thereby laying up treasure in Heaven.
Money Has Wings
“Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Proverbs 23:4-5
- Instruction: “Labour not to be rich” v4
- Instruction: “cease from thine own wisdom” v4
- Question?: “Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not?” v5
- Wisdom to ponder: “for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven” v5
Note this phrase in v5 (please read carefully) – “riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Now watch this – “they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” What does that mean? Simply, the way we spend our money on earth will testify about our lives on Judgment Day and we will thereby be rewarded or stripped of rewards or even kept out of the kingdom (Lk. 16:19-31; James 2:1-7; 5:1-6; etc.). The usage of our money is a direct reflection of the priorities of our hearts (Matt. 6:21).
Treasures In Heaven
IN previous generations, young men and women gave up their whole life of luxury in America to go to a foreign land to preach the Gospel of Christ. Today we have a generation of professing “Christians” who won’t so much as give up a penny to support the preaching of the Gospel of the glorious Savior they claim to be saved by.
How important is Christ and His Gospel to you? Jesus told us exactly how important we count Him and His Gospel….
People spend, waste money on every frivolity under Heaven and seldom lay up treasures in Heaven using their temporal coin (Matthew 6:19-21). Read Jesus’ teaching recorded in Luke 16.
Our LORD instructs us to lay up treasure, but in Heaven not here in this temporal world where the dollar will soon be obsolete, superseded by rewards earned during this earthly life.
“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures (lots) in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:” Matthew 6:19-20
Saint of the Most High, are you going to look back in eternity and deeply regret the opportunities God gave you in this fleeting life that you passed up? – to bless another believer or to support the work of Christ and send forward eternal rewards?
“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:21
WHERE are you laying up treasure?
Your investments into God’s kingdom work in this short life are truly safe, secure, life-giving, and eternal. No one can take them away.
DISCIPLE OF JESUS, Jesus Christ is all-knowing and sees everything and will reward every good deed or work done in His name and love.
“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” Hebrews 6:10
Tithing is not commanded under the New Testament. Yet giving and putting God first is commanded and is the privilege of the saints of Christ (Proverbs 3:9-10; Matthew 6:33; Luke 6:38).
LET’S LEARN GOD’S WORD TOGETHER – ONE TRUTH AT A TIME: Are you tired of reading Scripture or hearing a good message from the Word and not retaining it for yourself and to help others? We can help you. This message was sent out to each person who is on the Moments For My Master e-mail devotional list. In supplementation to your personal daily study of God’s Word, we would love to add you and have the privilege of nourishing your heart with God’s Word (Jn. 5:39; 1 Tim. 4:6, 16; Heb. 5:11-14; 1 Pet. 2:2).

Mission Mexico Update Part 34 [video]
Mexico Army Personnel Ministered to [podcast]
“Love this walk around ministry here in Mexico. Handed a fella a tract and about 3 minutes later I passed by him and he was still reading it.” Mark
Brother Mark is a studious, diligent disciple of Jesus. Diligently doing the ultimate mission for our Messiah which is eternal. Thank you for lifting our brother in prayer (Colossians 4:12).
Mission Mexico – This is brother in Christ Juan. After ministering to him he lit up and informed me that he is a born again Christian. He is now distributing the JESUS tract on a very busy street where his shop it (the one he owns). God is good. Satan is a liar. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. More Mission Mexico updates here.
“You mentioned our prayers are golden with God. How true this is according to Revelation 5:8. They are ‘golden vials’ (prayers and praises). That go upward to heaven right to the Lord! Carried up to the throne of heaven. And are received as a sweet odour to God! If done out of a pure heart. Because we know He hears the prayers of the righteous (Proverbs 15:29). If we are clothed in humility, our prayers and praises will be a sweet-smelling aroma to our Lord Jesus!” Karen Cochran
Regrettably, most professing Christians will never love Jesus enough to give up this fleeting world for Heaven’s coming King (Luke 14:33; 17:33).
When asked if she desired Christians in the USA to lift her in prayer, Maria immediately responded in the affirmative. Thank you for lifting the people in Mexico in your prayer, right now if you wish to pause.
Last evening brother Mark and I met up again with the dear pharmacist man. Gave him a big hug, warmly interacted with him, and gave him a fresh supply of the JESUS tract to continue to distribute from his pharmacy which is on a very busy corner here in Mexico and has daily walk in and walk by traffic.
A few days ago…. TONIGHT …. Another 50-60 JESUS tracts distributed and God’s Word spoken to many. 99% reception rate. God is good. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. Mission Mexico underway. Your prayers and support are vital.
The receptivity of the Mexican people to our LORD’s Gospel is staggering, utterly dumbfounding.
“Truthfully amazing. I don’t think we here in in America can even begin to comprehend what God is doing in the hearts of the Mexican people. The book of Acts is the closest thing we have to understanding. I just read Daniel 12:3 “and they that the turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.” You and Mark’s lives in Christ are a shining testament to so many as you lead them to salvation and the righteousness only found in Christ.” Karen Cochran
Recently it was made known that a new batch of the JESUS tracts in Spanish was a need. A dear disciple of Christ funded that. God is good. 1,500 JESUS tracts! Done! appr 7,000 distributed thus far!
After the last newsletter, a dear sister in Christ jumped in and sent the money for us to print 1,500 more of the JESUS tract in Spanish. So now to date 9,000 have been printed during Mission Mexico. Appr 7,000 already distributed! 7,000 souls heard and read the Gospel of our LORD thus far and your prayers and support make this possible!
Jesus the Great High Priest
“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrew 4:14-16

“NEVER take a Vacation from God” [podcast]
Jesus is coming saints – we going home soon to His forever home (John 14:1-6).
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.”
Heaven in the greatest investment – it’s forever. In Jesus our LORD
todd
God be praised for those who are financially supporting this outreach. We will continue to do with that which comes in. Here are some things that can be done….
More support to others doing ministry in the USA.
We support Allan Abayon, who is a sound disciple and now ministering in the Philippines.
More support for requested books by Jay, a chaplain who ministers to 800 inmates in Texas, on the border. He’s the brother who contacted me after he got a hold of one of the Authentic Disciple of Jesus books (Spanish) in the jail he ministers in. He loved it and asked for more. We’ve only sent him a few dozen as that’s all the money that was given for such…..
Roger (pictured below) is a brother in Christ and after we talked he took some JESUS tracts to distribute. Amen LORD. Roger was asked if he’d like Christians in the USA to lift him in prayer and he eagerly said “yes.” Would you like to pause now and lift up our brother in Christ to the Father in Jesus’ name?
Dear saints in Christ, thank you for agreeing that it is our privilege to help these beloved people, to take out of what GOD has put in our hand to help HIS work.

The Killing Power of the Holy Ghost with Judge Travis Bryan III [podcast]
“For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.” Romans 8:13
“Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.” 2 Corinthians 4:10-12
“The cross of Christ is the sweetest burden that I ever bore; it is such a burden as wings are to a bird, or sails to a ship, to carry me forward to my harbor.” Samuel Rutherford
Momentum in the power of the Holy Spirit comes from a continual perpetual downward dying motion, being then raised up reciprocally in the resurrection grace of Jesus Christ.
“The flesh loses its power over you when it is crucified. Christ’s power begins to reign. The worries and stress of this life leave. And you begin to have the peace that passes all understanding. Philippines 4:7 Amen! A crucified life! Hallelujah all praise to Jesus.” Karen Cochran
God’s plan for your life….here it is:
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20
The ministry has put together 3 volumes sure to deepen your life in Christ, in the crucified life. 3 volumes to boost your life in Christ, in the cross He commanded us to take up – and by which He raises us upward in His glorious power and grace (Luke 9:23-24).
