While out visiting my Sunday school class, I saw Kaiden standing outside and stopped the car to go talk to him. He told me he kind of quit on church because some tough times. I asked him about whether he would go to Heaven and he said he just wasn't sure. I was able to share the Gospel with him and he accepted Christ as Saviour. After he got saved, he shook my hand and promised me he'd be in church on Sunday. Always exciting to be able to go and show the Gospel with anyone. If you keep your eyes open, you'll find them. #divineappointments #mswga

Have you invested in someone only to be discouraged by the results? Isaiah 5:2 speaks to the heart of those who labor to help others. oldpathsjournal.com/post/i-v…

The worldliness of a believer is a direct result of their lack of time in prayer

Why was it that the church in the book of Acts was so impactful? You see, we are looking today for people who are influential, whereas God is looking for someone who will make an impact. When you're worried about being influential, you must compromise what you believe in order to be influential. However, if you're going to make an impact, you've got to do something that will change the status quo and that will change the heart in order to make an impact. The reason this church made such a great impact was because they did not just do what they were supposed to do in witnessing to the lost at an appointed time, but they did it daily. This church had a daily witness, and the Lord used them daily to see people saved. Imagine if people today witnessed on a daily basis. Imagine if today people realized that you don't have to wait until a certain day to get a concern for the lost, but had a concern for the lost on a daily basis. My friend, one of the greatest reasons this generation does not make an impact is because it is not willing to be a witness on a daily basis. One of the things I often hear is that we put too much pressure on people to go soul winning. Well, let me ask you a question: Do you think when someone goes to Hell that they will wish that we had not pushed so much and had not put so much pressure on people to go soul winning? Let me ask you, do you think that when someone gets to Heaven because someone witnessed to them that that person, when they get to Heaven, will say that you witnessed too much and you put too much time into being a soul winner? My friend, we will never make an impact in our society if we do not get the mindset of daily, as the church in the book of Acts had. It is a daily mindset to live for God, a daily mindset to reach the lost, and a daily mindset to be concerned about the souls of mankind that will absolutely allow you to make an impact on the lives of those around you. I want to challenge you to start today getting that daily mindset in your mind that you will go after the lost and try to reach them for the sake of souls going to Heaven. That is the only thing that will allow your life to make an impact on your world around you.

The Secret Ingredient of Successful Marriages nitter.gq/i/broadcasts/2EmPrVvAM…

You will not have fruit if you are not willing to take root where you are.

There is a wonderful phrase in Jeremiah 18:3 that ought to encourage every believer. This verse says, “he wrought a work on the wheels.” In other words, you could say it this way: He was working a work on the wheels. Jeremiah was saying that the potter was working with that piece of clay despite the piece of clay becoming marred in his hand. It's exciting to see that though the clay became marred in the hand of the potter, he kept working with that piece of clay. My friend, this should encourage you that God has not stopped working in your life. I'm thankful that though we become marred because of our foolish decisions, God does not give up on us. Oh, my friend, you have to understand that God loves you far more than you even love yourself, and though you may have become marred in His hand, He is still doing a work in your life to make out of you a beautiful vessel. Moreover, to those who want to criticize those who have become marred, may I remind you that God is still doing a work in their lives? Just because the clay became marred does not mean that God stopped working. In fact, because he said, “he wrought a work on the wheels,” that means He is still working a work in the life of the one who has marred his life with sin. Oh, those mars were his own personal choices, but God still has not given up because he is part of His creation. Let us all be a little bit more understanding of each other, knowing that we all are marred in the hand of the Potter, and God is still working in all of our lives. If we can understand that God is still working despite the flaws that we find with each other and with ourselves, we can keep serving God with encouragement and hope, knowing that God is still working on us.

The Spirit-Led Life nitter.gq/i/broadcasts/2lgQpavXy…

How you can recognize the Holy Spirit’s leading in everyday decisions oldpathsjournal.com/post/spi…

The old paths are not merely where God's people used to walk; they are where God still commands His people to walk.

One of the big reasons people don't know what to do is because they don't get up early enough when God is speaking to them. God said through Jeremiah that He spoke to the people, and notice, "rising up early and speaking." However, the next four words are tragic words when it says, "but ye heard not." I don't know why they did not hear, other than they were not there when He began to speak early to them. Could it be that many people do not know what God is saying to them because He wants to speak to them early in the morning, but they cannot hear Him because they either sleep in, wake up in the morning and never open the Scriptures, or are just so backslidden that it doesn't matter what God says, they are not going to listen? My friend, God can speak to us today through His Word, but we have to be there for Him to speak to us. I know that I may be a dinosaur in this area, but I still believe it is good to wake up early before everyone in the house is moving around and spend time in the Scriptures so that God can speak to you. God speaks more in the silent times when no one is around than He ever will when there is noise around you that will distract you from what He truly wants to say. If you truly want to get God's wisdom for the day, then you would be wise to stop worshiping your sleep time and wake up early so that you can spend time with God and hear Him speak to you early, and receive the wisdom you need for the day.

Meet Lakizzie. Her door was the last one I knocked on tonight. Come to find out, she came to our church one year ago and wasn't able to come back. After getting her signed up to come on Sunday with her grandchildren, I then asked her about whether she knew if she would go to Heaven. She told me she did not know. I was able to share the Gospel with her and she accepted Christ as her personal Saviour. You will find if you just keep on going God will lead you to the people who want to get saved. #divineappointments #mswga

Miserable Comforters nitter.gq/i/broadcasts/2vylRzdqy…

Quitters never fulfill God's will for their lives. To start God's will and not finish it means you have not done His will at all.

One of the clearest presentations of the Gospel that shows how a person can be saved is found with the thief on the cross. Notice that the thief on the cross never got baptized. Notice that the thief on the cross never had any good works to show for himself. Notice that the thief on the cross did not go to church. Notice that the thief on the cross did not have a chance to clean up his life first. Notice that the thief on the cross did not even have a chance to show that he desired the change that God brings. The one thing that is very clear is that there was one thing the thief wanted, and that was to be in paradise with Christ when he died. He did not want to go to Hell, and that desire of not wanting to go to Hell is what caused him to look to Christ to save him.The only way he could guarantee that desire was to call on Christ, and his call was simply these words: Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. I am afraid that too many have made salvation too difficult, and thus they have perverted salvation. Too many people want to judge whether a person is saved or not because they believe a person needs to make all these changes before getting saved, and that is nothing more than works salvation. The only thing a person needs to do to get saved is to turn from believing in anything else other than Jesus Christ to Jesus Christ alone, and the moment they turn to Christ alone, they have repented. The only sin that will send a person to hell is the sin of not trusting Christ. You will notice in Romans 6:23, it says, For the wages of sin is death. You will notice that the word "sin" is not plural, but singular. In other words, there is one sin that will cause us to die and go to Hell; that is the sin of not trusting Christ. My friend, if a person is willing to turn from trusting their own way to trusting Christ alone and calling upon Him, then they are saved. The thief on the cross and his salvation are one of the clearest examples that show us what Christ expects for a person to be saved. Did the thief on the cross know he was a sinner? Yes, he did. Did he call on Christ as Romans 10:13 tells us to do? Yes, he did. Because he called on Christ, trusting in Christ alone and nothing else, he is in Heaven today. Let's stop trying to make salvation too difficult and keep it as simple as Christ did, understanding that the change comes after a person gets saved and not before they get saved. Anyone who tries to make the change come before salvation has added works to salvation, and thus they have made themselves a heretic.

God Blessed AGAIN! 11 saved, 2 baptized, and visitors in attendance again. The attendance was excellent; well above last year’s on the same day. Thank for God’s blessing on #MBCBethany and for His continuance of “The Miracle of Maranatha”
