I AM ONE -- HERE I AM LORD, SEND ME


Dear Lord, I do not wish to fail a single person you place in my path. Please give me your forgiveness, mercy, grace, compassion, wisdom and discernment that I might be an encourager to others.
Each life you bring or send my way I LEARN AND GROW FROM;
be it the patient in the hospital,
the parent of the disabled child,
the family of someone suddenly put on hospice,...
the call from the depressed drunk in the night,
the old man in the café who speaks of the death of his handicapped wife,
the 90 year old who struggles to keep on keeping on in her own home alone,
the young single mother who feels overwhelmed with her multiple struggles and expenses,
the letter from the prisoner in jail searching for a new path,
the call from the married woman who had an affair,
the young man who's mother just died of cancer,
each in need of personal one on one prayer, hope, encouragement in their own unique way.
Help me to be a good helpful listener to others who struggle with life issues. In Jesus Name I pray, amen.



James 1:2 Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. 3 Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. 4 And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing.

1 Peter 1:6-9 (NASB) "In this you GREATLY REJOICE, even though now for a LITTLE WHILE, if NECESSARY, you have been DISTRESSED by VARIOUS TRIALS, so that the PROOF of your FAITH, being more precious than GOLD which is PERISHABLE, even though TESTED BY FIRE, may be found to result in PRAISE and GLORY and HONOR at the REVELATION of JESUS CHRIST; and though you have NOT SEEN HIM, you LOVE HIM, and though you do NOT SEE HIM NOW, but BELIEVE in HIM, you GREATLY REJOICE with JOY INEXPRESSIBLE and FULL of GLORY, obtaining as the outcome of your FAITH the SALVATION of your SOULS."

Keith Green: Here Am I... Send Me

Isaiah 6:1-8
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.
Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

BODY MINISTRY -- OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD - THE MIND OF CHRIST



Dedicated Service

Romans 12: 12 Therefore I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies [dedicating all of yourselves, set apart] as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing to God, which is your rational (logical, intelligent) act of worship. And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you].


For by the grace [of God] given to me I say to everyone of you not to think more highly of himself [and of his importance and ability] than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has apportioned to each a degree of faith [and a purpose designed for service]. For just as in one [physical] body we have many parts, and these parts do not all have the same function or special use, so we, who are many, are [nevertheless just] one body in Christ, and individually [we are] parts one of another [mutually dependent on each other]. Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them accordingly: if [someone has the gift of] prophecy, [let him speak a new message from God to His people] in proportion to the faith possessed; if service, in the act of serving; or he who teaches, in the act of teaching; or he who encourages, in the act of encouragement; he who gives, with generosity; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy [in caring for others], with cheerfulness.
Love is to be sincere and active [the real thing—without guile and hypocrisy]. Hate what is evil [detest all ungodliness, do not tolerate wickedness]; hold on tightly to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another with [authentic] brotherly affection [as members of one family], give preference to one another in honor; 11 never lagging behind in diligence; aglow in the Spirit, enthusiastically serving the Lord; 12 constantly rejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast and patient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength], 13 contributing to the needs of God’s people, pursuing [the practice of] hospitality.
14 Bless those who persecute you [who cause you harm or hardship]; bless and do not curse [them]. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice [sharing others’ joy], and weep with those who weep [sharing others’ grief]. 16 Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty [conceited, self-important, exclusive], but associate with humble people [those with a realistic self-view]. Do not overestimate yourself. 17 Never repay anyone evil for evil. Take thought for what is right and gracious and proper in the sight of everyone. 18 If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for God’s wrath [and His judicial righteousness]; for it is written [in Scripture], “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.






 20 But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for by doing this you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21 Do not be overcome and conquered by evil, but overcome evil with good.



David Wilkerson - The Mind of Christ | Full Sermon

Be Like Christ

Philippians 2: Therefore if there is any encouragement and comfort in Christ [as there certainly is in abundance], if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship [that we share] in the Spirit, if [there is] any [great depth of] affection and compassion, make my joy complete by being of the same mind, having the same love [toward one another], knit together in spirit, intent on one purpose [and living a life that reflects your faith and spreads the gospel—the good news regarding salvation through faith in Christ].
Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit [through factional motives, or strife], but with [an attitude of] humility [being neither arrogant nor self-righteous], regard others as more important than yourselves.
Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this same attitude in yourselves which was in Christ Jesus [look to Him as your example in selfless humility], who, although He existed in the form and unchanging essence of God [as One with Him, possessing the fullness of all the divine attributes—the entire nature of deity], did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped or asserted [as if He did not already possess it, or was afraid of losing it]; but emptied Himself [without renouncing or diminishing His deity, but only temporarily giving up the outward expression of divine equality and His rightful dignity] by assuming the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men [He became completely human but was without sin, being fully God and fully man].
After He was found in [terms of His] outward appearance as a man [for a divinely-appointed time], He humbled Himself [still further] by becoming obedient [to the Father] to the point of death, even death on a cross.
For this reason also [because He obeyed and so completely humbled Himself], God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow [in submission], of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and that every tongue will confess and openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord (sovereign God), to the glory of God the Father.

HAVE FAITH IN GOD -- NOT IN MANKIND

"The ways of God are mysterious and profound beyond all comprehension. 'Who by searching can find Him out?' God only knows the issue of this business. He has destroyed nations from the map of history for their sins. Nevertheless, my hopes prevail generally above my fears for our Republic. The times are dark, the spirits of ruin are abroad in all their power, and the mercy of God alone can save us."
President Abraham Lincoln
“What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one which is lost, [searching] until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he gets home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, because I have found my lost sheep!’ I tell you, in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance.
“Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins [each one equal to a day’s wages] and loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? And when she has found it, she calls together her [women] friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, because I found the lost coin!’ In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents [that is, changes his inner self—his old way of thinking, regrets past sins, lives his life in a way that proves repentance; and seeks God’s purpose for his life].” Luke 15: 4-10

THE GOSPEL
Moreover, brethren, I DECLARE UNTO YOU THE GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
BY WHICH ALSO YE ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES;
And that HE WAS BURIED, and that HE ROSE AGAIN THE THIRD DAY ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
After that, HE WAS SEEN OF ABOVE FIVE HUNDRED BRETHREN AT ONCE; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
1 Corinthians 15:1-7
Robin Mark - Days of Elijah (Lyric Video)
In Days of Elijah, other Old Testament figures are mentioned.
• Moses, who restored righteousness to the people of Israel by reintroducing them to relationship with God and who established, by God’s finger, the law that would serve as a covenant between Him and them.
• Ezekiel, who prophesied over a valley of dry bones, and watched as God brought them together — bone to bone — and then filled in with tendons and flesh and, finally, breath. God declares to Ezekiel that, like ...the bones, his people Israel will be restored as a nation and as His people.
• David, the developer (though not the builder) of the first temple in Jerusalem, never-the-less returned the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. But David’s “temple of praise,” as stated in Days of Elijah, is the temple inside you and me, where the Holy Spirit dwells.

PRAYER FOR THE DECEIVED YOUNG PEOPLE IN AMERICA




Heavenly Father,
This morning I come to you on behalf of the young people in our nation who trust in the system without becoming involved or aware of all the deceptions around them.
They have been deceived in so many ways be it abortion, student loans, marriage contracts, childhood education by our government eliminating God from history and closing him our to the school systems and so much more.
It seems like they are blinded -- sheep following the wolves.
I believe they ha...ve an amazing amount of trust in illusions and propaganda (what is wrong and believing it is right).
Help them to spend time in the house of worship and in your Holy Word and with the elderly to gleam wisdom and discernment.
I see the little hand held devises and gadgets as being their God which will fail them. It is merely a counterfeit of what the Holy Spirit can do in their lives if they would only open their hearts to His supernatural leadings.
I pray for deliverance on their behalf from apathy and the evil through out our land that is blinding them of the deep debts this nation has robbed their future pocket books of before they or their children are even born.
We need miracles NOW (please hear my prayer) for the children and grandchildren of this generation.
We need your guidance for the young families to not suppress the wisdom within themselves and constantly second guess their own instincts because they are trusting in the media, the government, and the false prophets among us. May they trust in you is my prayer.
Lord, please be with them and guide them; they hold the future in their own hands and hearts in so many ways -- help them to become active, accountable, and mature citizens in regard to what is taking place in our land.
Align their God given thoughts, visions, dreams, give them hope and voices to speak what is on their minds and hearts.
In Jesus mighty name I pray, Amen
