I Am Worthy

I am worthy, I am worthy to be a child of God

You are worthy, you are worthy to be a child of God

He has made us to be worthy to the serve Him here below

If were willing, He will use us to heal and to restore

If were willing, He will use us to teach His Word here on earth

If were willing, He will use us to share His saving grace

Recently I heard a Pastor tell us that we were worthy to be used to serve the Lord. He said that each one of us is here to do a special work. I thought of the above song and asked a friend setting beside me if there was a song about being worthy. I started to sing it, but she said that she had never heard it. I went home and looked for it but couldn’t find it. I got all the songs the Lord has given me and there it was. I didn’t put a date on it, so I don’t know how long ago it was. I don’t have any idea of what prompted Him to give this song. He always gives me a song when I have doubts about having the skills to do what He wants me to do.

Thanksgiving

Let us take time to give thanks unto the Lord by spending time in the house of God. Many churches have stopped having services because of poor attendance. They tried to have services on Wednesday nights put few or none at all came. So they thought what is the use! Pastors keep on doing it for you will be in the will of God; and that is the important thing. It is a Thanksgiving service, so give Him thanks for everything by making a list of all the things that our country is founded on.

To praise Him for:

  • For our constitution that is based on God’s Holy Word.

  • For the sanctity of all life.

  • For the miracles that He has blessed our country with.

  • For the miracles that He has blessed us and our families with.

  • For being able to vote for our government officials

  • For the right to speak out on the issues that we believe are right or wrong for our country.

Many of our businesses are supporting gay rights and are sending pornography throughout the world; as well as other things that do not line up with God’s Word for our lives. I wrote about it some years ago. At that time they did it secretly. Today our courts are legalizing sin. And now people in all walks of life are sanctioning every kind of immoral behavior. Some of our churches are not preaching the true Word of God. They are saying that God loves all people; and therefore have put them in leadership positions. I’m not saying that they should not welcome them into there churches; but that they will need to be taught that sin is sin and that he who deliberately lives in win is not saved. We need to listen to the Word and turn from living in sin. Yes, we will always have to repeat it time and again, thanking God for sending His Son Jesus to pay the price for us. There are many scriptures that teach about the consequences and every country must pay when it turns away from upholding God’s order for our lives. Israel is still paying the price for their disobedience. I’m sure if God’s chosen people have to pay the price that every other country will also pay it.

Remnant

We Christians are the remnant and we must pray to restore Godly principals in our nation. We will pay the price for our disobedience. There are many scriptures that tell how countries throughout history have paid that price before being restored.

We are to uphold all those in authority, in every walk of life, from the lowest to the highest office of our country, the office of our President Obama and the Supreme Court. We do not know their hearts or what they believe, but our Lord and Savior does. He hears our prayers and He always answers them, doing what needs to be done to restore our country.

Wisdom for life: Proverbs 4: 20 My son attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine hear. 22 For they are life unto those that find them. and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out if it are the issues of life. 24 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee. 25 Let thine eyes look right on, and leteyelids look straight before thee. 26 Pomder the path of thy feet, and let sll thy ways be established. 27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.

We need to continue to do what we always do; to feed and cloth the poor and lift up those who have fallen. We’ve all been in that state at one time or another and know how it feels; We use our own experiences and God’s Word to guide us and remembering that we all fall short of the glory of God. It needs to be done year round, not just at Christmas time. The needy are always with us.

Recession

Continue to pay your tithes and also the offerings that the Spirit leads you to give.

We are living in hard times. They say that we are headed for a crash like we had in 1929. People are losing their homes. They are out work. Businesses are unable to get loans and having to lay off employees. There is little money to buy their products or to buy food. Many stores make most of their profit at Christmas time. They hire extra help to keep up with the shoppers. Many plan on that part time work to pay for their Christmas gifts and to stay out of debt. Please continue to tithe and to give offerings as the Spirit leads you. This is the commandment of the Lord. There are 5 scriptures listed in the Bible; but only one that says to you to test Him. Malachi 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house and prove me now herewit, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. Tithes are what belong to God. Offerings are what we are led to give to help others in need. They are to be given to those who are hungry to help those who are doing good works. They are not to support wrong works that supports sinful living.

I don’t know why it is that for some everything is restored immediately and for others it is a slow process. I’m one of those that had a bear cupboard. I’ve become a very creative cook and have combined foods together that I would have never dreamed of. Some of it turned out to be real tasty.

I’ve always been able to take care the expenses of what the Lord has called me to do. Oh, I held my breath at times and had to delay some of my mailing until the next month; through it all my faith has grown stronger. I’m happy wherever I lay my head and for the roof that protects me. I’ve also learned to do whatever He tells me, even when I can’t believe He said it until He repeats it many times. Do you suppose that I just answered the question? Hum!

If you haven’t asked the Lord to be ruler over your life why not do it now. You will never be the same. If you have backslidden He is always willing to restore you. Accept Jesus and the Holy God who created this wonderful place for us to live. Just look out your window and see the wonder of it all.

Say this prayer

Dear Lord I am a sinner

I don’t want to live this way any more

I ask you to forgive my sins (list them out loud)

I want you to be the ruler of my life

To live in my heart forever

To guide me in all righteousness

I thank you for coming into my heart

Please fill me with the Holy Spirit

And give me the gift of tongues, Amen

Read the Bible everyday. Start with the Book of John. Read the Psalms and the Book of Proverbs. Find a church that will not compromise God’s Word. Upon arising in the morning ask God to guard your mouth that you will only speak and do what He leads you to do.

You must ask to speak in tongues in order to receive this gift. It is a way of praying the perfect will of God for the situation. Satan cannot understand what you are saying so he can’t try to stop your prayer from being fulfilled. You can ask the Spirit to reveal the prayer to you. He sometimes gives someone the gift of tongues without them asking for he has a special purpose for them to fulfill.

I believe that we are living in the end times. I may be wrong, but I feel that the upheaval of the earth all over the world is the beginning of the end times before the return of Jesus to the earth. I am once again reading The Left Behind series, written by Tim Lahaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. It is their interpretation of the book of Revelations. Some take issue with it. They do not believe in the rapture. That’s okay, but if there is a rapture and they have said the sinners prayer they will be caught up, but if not, they will be left behind and will go through all that Revelations says will happen. In reading their books you will receive insight as to what will befall you. The most important insight is that people asked those who realized their mistake and repented, asking the Lord to rule their lives and were transformed. Those that saw the difference in them wanted to know what their secret was. They were given the opportunity to explain the salvation message to them. Many received it and were saved. They saw their peace even though they knew the trials they were going through.
