Let us stand for God today

A dry noodle can stand up like a stick, a wet noodle is limp, has no strength to stand. Our backbone resembles one type of noodle. What kind of backbone do you have for God. Does anybody know you are a Christian? Are you imbarrased when somebody is talking to another about their souls? It could be the wet noodle syndrom. All Christians are in a battle, but some have decided to hide, and not fight. Get mad at Hell, and make sure your Yes is fresh in God, and stand up.

Praise is something that should be automatic

When a heart is right with God, then praise comes forth automatically. You don't have to prod it out, it just comes out. Word are merely the expression of our hearts.Curse word, negative words, demeaning words, are from a heart far from God. Is your YES fresh today in God. If not, why not. Call on the Lord today, and just go ahead and praise the Lord. Love you.

% of rain around

Rain takes place when the clouds get so full they have to empty theirselves of all the H2O. We get the benifit. It has been dry lately and it is sure good to see some rain a falling. How about comparing that to our Spiritual condition. Dry, so dry were dusty in the prayer closet, so dry it takes a feather duster to clean the Bible? Let us pray for rain, Holy rain, Holy Ghost rain, where the rain becomes fire. Fresh Fire from Heaven. Need an umbrella?

I sure can't point a finger at anybody

I have to answer for me, and you have to answer for you. God knows and that is a fact. I reckon if none of us ever messed up we would be a candidite for "Saint for the day". Let us weigh the cost of living our lives in Holiness, and/or Worldliness. We will only see God in Holy living. If I have offended someone I ask your forgiveness. If the Word offends you, by my or other preachers, I will not ask your forgiveness because it is not my word but God's. Love you each one, and I appreciate your prayer and support. Praise God forever!

What we need is a Soul Filling Station

Some of you Saints that have been around Pentecostal churches have seen the change taking place. Do we not rock the boat, and just let the tide of worldliness come on in. Or do we make a stand and hold to our convictions. We need Fresh Fire of the Holy Ghost. We need some Soul filling stations, pumping that High Octane Super Salvation today. Can you say amen. Talk to me somebody. Rev.ed@att.net.

As for God, His way is perfect:

Only God is perfect. We must strive to be the best that we can be. Slop jar Christianity is a bad testimony. Ps. 18: 30 says " As for God, His way is perfect : the Word of the Lord is tried : He is a buckler to all those that trust in Him. ". God is perfect, the Bible ( I prefer King James ), has been tried and found flawless. God will keep us connected if we trust in Him.
This tell's me our trust in God will keep us together. Fresh Fire is exactly what takes place when we trust in God. No old experiences are allowed in this Buckler business. New or Fresh, and relavant fire from the Holy Ghost is needed Now, and tomorrow. How's your walk with God? Call me we can talk, and pray, and believe, and trust, and love, and grow together. Bind Satan with your trust in God. Whewwwwww!!!!

Let us keep praising our King

Jesus was born King. A 7 way King. King of the Jew, King of Isreal, King of Rightousness, King of the ages, King of Heaven, King of glory, King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords. That is our King.
All of our loyalty should be given to Jesus, all of our trust in eternal things starts and ends with Jesus.
There is stiill room for us at the foot of our King. Come and let us worship Him today, and forever! Amen!

Enjoy the 4th of July

The 4th of July for America is a day of celebration for our freedom from national bondage. All other countries are looking at America to see how we handle our freedom. The president we have and the democratic leaders, and other liberals would have us try to conform to other nations.
I salute our troops, and heroes in uniform, but I would not walk across the street to hear some of these in office today. I will pray for them but I will not support them as far as their adgenda is concerned.
This country needs God back in His rightful place. Fresh Fire today, and forever!

God orders repentence

In Acts 17:30 the scripture says "And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men to repent:". God commands repentence. When God commands something God has a reason for it.
Repentence is being sorry for sin, and turn from it, not live in it. To live seperately in Holiness is something required of us to make Heaven. If you mess up, fess up, and God will pick you up, and get you ready to go up. Love God ya'll. Keep your relationship with God alive.

Freedom isn't free

Freedom has never been free, and will never be free. I want to say thanks to all the Vererans, and their families. My Mom, and Dad, were both WW II vets. I am a Vietnam era vet. My son Eric is a vet. How proud it makes me to know this freedom I love, and enjoy. It has been paid for by men, and women, black, & white, red, & yellow, brown, & black. I salute each one.
God bless America is still our prayer, and so much more as we see the enemy of our freedom roaming to and fro seeking whom he may devour.
Let us never take for granted our freedom, or our blessings, and where they came from, and who paid the price. It starts with Jesus, the author, and finisher, of our faith. If it wasn't for Him there would be no freedom anywhere. God bless America. Amen.

It is time

Have you ever wondered how long will it be before the Lord wraps this Gospel business up? I think it wise for us to know that time is something in His hands, and we just need to hold on to the truth of His Word, and not be anxious for anything. I know it is preached many a time that anytime the rapture could come. It is true, but God knows a whole lot more than we do when it all fall's into His plan. Live each day like it is your last, and enjoy it like it is your first taste of victory. Do you remember your first taste of Heaven? If not, or if it has been a long time since you've tasted Heaven, come back to the altar and confess your sins, and situations to our heavenly Father thru Christ, and by the moving of the Holy Ghost your life will be changed.

Happy Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day to all the Dad's out there. What a responsibility it is for us to be Dad's. How much will we be held accountable for the way we do our duty. To raise a child in God's way's requires someone with a relationship with the God of glory obeying Gos's Word. There is no if's, and's, or but's. Glory!..

Tell somebody about Jesus

When is the last time you shared Christ with someone. If you can't remember there needs to be a refreshing of Soul Burden in you. Hit the altar, pray until something stirs inside of you causing you to burst with enthusiasm to share this Good News. Jesus is awesome. Don't you think so?!!!!!!!

David was known for being a man after God's own heart or the OP factor!!

What an affirmation being called a man after God's heart. A spiritual mind is life and peace. Consider the OP factor in this. O = Obedience, and P = Passion.
Obedience is better than sacrifice. To say Yes to God without desire to say yes is like giving your tithes and offererings grudgingly. Just keep it in your pocket. You will not get blessed unless you do it wholeheartingly. Passion is fire, fire is consuming. To obey with passion cannot help but bless the socks off of you. David served God with a passionate servent heart. How about you. David wasn't the only man after God's heart. You and I can be a part of this if we want to be. Call on Jesus, and get the OP factor working in your life.

Summer Time

June is the beginning month for summer time, and vacations, and school outs, and etc, There is never a time to cool it with the Gospel though. Too many people have included vaction with church attendance. I know it is an easy thing to do is miss church when on vacation. The answer is, I believe, keeping your Yes Fresh everyday. If church is the only time we pray, or read scripture ( or have it read to us ), we are sorely missing the mark. Daily devotions are a must for us. Daily Bible reading, and daily praying is a part of our Christian obligation. A Bible in the back of a car, in full view fried like a french frie at Mcdonalds, is not an inspiration to anybody. In fact it will be the opposite effect. Summer, Winter, Spring, or Fall we have the same responsibility to be real. Something to think about. Love you all in Christ.

God favored the Camp

I thank you for your prayers for youth camp. The Lord blessed mightily, and kids were saved, baptized, blessed, and shown hope. This was Outreach camp, and many of the kids had a situation heavier than a kid should have. Thank God for His power. We praise you oh God. Glory!

I appreciate your prayers ya'll

I will be out of pocket next week. I will be working at church youth camp as a Counselor. I appreciate what God has done in my life, and do want to bless these kid's. I will not have access to a computer there so this blog  will have to be the reminder for where I am. Thanks for your prayers. Love you all.

Love Mondays

I have heard it said too many times " Man it's another Monday, back to work for another week". Good grief. Listen everybody be thankful for the day's the Lord helps us have. Thank God for the ability to work, the health to do, the mind to do whatever it is we are called to do, the heart to do things. Monday is the start of another 24 hours the Lord has given to us. It is His day, we get to be in it with Him. Wow.
Keep your Yes Fresh with God and life will mean so much more to you, and to others that see your Fire for God, and life. Praise God forever!

Went to a funeral yesterday

A funeral is a send off, a ceremony for the dead. Some are more lively than others. The dead cannot do anything for anybody ever again. Of course we know that the body is just the shell the soul lives in. The way a man lives, and for whom the man lives, is the main point. A saved person's funeral can be more of a celebration than a man that is lost without God. The lost that die will ever be lost. There is no salvation available after death. I have seen the rightous die and rejoiced, and I have seen the lost die and was broken hearted because of it. Heaven and Hell are real places, for real people, with never dying souls.
What kind of funeral will you have - Celebration or heartache?

Politicians and the Oil spill

Seems like a big similarity in both. One spews filth, and the other spews filth. Oil is slimy, so is a liar. We need some clean up don't we. It starts in the heart. Oil will burn, and so will a lying politician. Ha. Really. Something to think about  isn't it.

Convictions give us guidelines to go by

Convictions = Strong belief. What do you believe? What are your convictions. The scripture says the Lord convicts us of Sin, of Rightousness, and of Judgement. Sin is anything unrightous; Rightousness is what is right; and Judgement is the final opinion of one in authority. God has spoken to us in His Word. We will be judged by the things we do, and don't do, accordingly. If what ever we do is contrary to God's Word, and His Way ( Holiness ), we should be convicted of it. If were not a trip to the altar is in order. Fresh Fire includes repentance when you sin. I don't believe in onced saved, always saved. I believe this is a dangerous doctrine. There will be a rude awakening for some on judgement day. Pray up and go up. Nough said.

He that overcometh the same shall be ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Rev. 3:5 is a rich verse for us in that it lays out who will win and who will lose. All of us fall short of the glory of God. When we mess up, fess up. Don't take for granted that, like some, say your sins are all done away with from then to when. Responsibility is on our shoulders to live according to Gods instruction book - the Bible. " He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before His angels." Pretty straight word don't you think?

National day of prayer

This America we love is being shot at, and this is often from the inside. The 5th column was an enemy group made to fit in with everyone else, whether it was an army, or a country. We often can't see the enemy because Satan is the one behind this plan to destroy and to kill. Bottom line is WE NEED GOD. Pray and fast for this country, and it's leaders. If we don't pray look out. We will win only if we get cleaned up from our sin. Be serious with God about this, because God is already serious about answering. Love you all in Christ.

Lord give us eyes to see the times we are living in

A blind man can't see what is ahead of him. He walks slowly, often using a cane or stick to help him discern what is in his way. He can't use his physical eyes, for they don't work. Ummmmmmm this is like us. Unless we are in tune with God, we walk in blindness, and have to have some other means of sight to help us. Other means will turn us in the wrong direction. The Word of God is still true. Stick yer nose in it and grow, and let the fire of the Holy Ghost burn.

Last day of May 2010.

One of these days there will be no more days. Eternity is not measured in seconds, or minutes, or hours, or days but just is. Heaven is, and Hell is. There is no purgotory, or any other escape from Hell. If you live a sinners life, you will die a sinners death. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life thru Jesus Christ Our Lord. Is Jesus your Lord? If not why not? It is the best life to live while you live. Fresh Fire today, and forever! Love you all so much. Thanks for your prayers.

Is. 55: 6 - 11

Seek the Lord. Wow. Seek means to search for. Do we take for granted that once we get saved there is no more seeking the Lord? When we eat do we take for granted that we will not need food again? Same case here. Good food equals lots of benifits like good health. Good Word will do the same except in a spirituall  way. If you had a spiritual examination what would be the results? Good, bad, or ugly? Let's get healthy in God ya'll what ya say? Praise God forever!

Have you ever wondered where the time went?

Time does not wait on anybody for anything unless the maker of time is in control. We can pray, and ask our Heavenly Father to help us with time and He will, when we pray in Faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God. Time and Faith will change situations, no matter what they are. Take time to talk it over with the author and finisher of our faith. Author = beginning, and Finisher = end = time. Time is an interval of seconds, and minutes, and hours, and days, and weeks, and months, and years. Eternity is beyond our understanding of time. I believe in the Bible. The Bible mentions eternal life and eternal punishment. Wow. Which way are you headed? Fresh Fire is life or death. Git right ya'll, and stay right.

The calm before the storm

Have you noticed the undertones of a storm coming on. Jesus said Watch and Pray. Signs of this coming storm are everywhere. If we follow Christ from a distance we can't see as clearly as if we could when were close to Him. Let me urge everyone to get close, to draw close, to seek Him with our whole hearts. Make sure your Fire is Fresh. Today. Love you each one.

Refreshing in the Spirit is the best refreshing

Do you remember running, and resting. There is no better time for refreshing after you have wore yourselves out running, and playing, and laughing, and shouting, and witnessing, and worshipping God with all your hearts, and all your souls. Of course if you have lost your enthusiasm, and the excitement of living you just need "Fresh Fire" to get you back on track. I'm talking about a new experience for those that have a need to do your first works over again. Matt. 11:28 - Come unto me all ye that are heavy laden and I will give you rest.

Glorios, Victorious Resurrection day.

Thanks be to God for His wonderful gift. I am so thankful for the resurrection, and promise of abundant life. Thank God for Sis. Gayle and Bro. John Kirkpatrick for this web site, and for all the ones that have signed the questbook, and became a member of Fresh Fire Ministry. Love you all so much.
