Author of The Meaning of Life, Living Hope, Understanding Changes, I Can Choose Myself --
Most of us are always pursuing the best for ourselves, our families and our “Life”.
We sometimes think about and even consider the “religious” way of life, but are challenged by the seemingly odd or rigorous traditions, fanciness, reactionary and emotional behaviors we see going on in church, on television and even from folks standing on the corner or knocking on our doors.
In today’s world of technology and information, we can easily educate ourselves and make our own decisions. Which we enjoy, and we should!
If you are thinking about how religion, or in an easier term to understand, a spiritual life can help you, start with the simplest (and absolutely most important) information.
His Message for You is here and ready for you now!!!!!

Our lives have plenty of challenges and God promises to bring us through them when we are “in faith”.
Do not waste precise time and emotion on creating, embellishing, or exacerbating strife or malice or have an intent to persecute or revenge. It has no value and places you against God and His Word!
Do not be caught up in talking about others, gossiping, stirring up strife or malice against another, especially a friend or a neighbor. In spite, it only serves your own pride and self gratification.
Do not continue to attempt to prove a point though such actions, especially after reproof has occurred by repentance, apology and forgiveness, as Christ clearly tells us how we should handle situations of offense or mistreatment.
and I could spend considerable time sharing my thoughts, but is suspect some may consider my words as only, my words. So I declare God’s Word on this issue and I pray you consider His Message on this very serious matter:
"Listen carefully and understand"1 Timothy 5:13 – “Besides, they get into the habit of being idle and going about from house to house. And not only do they become idlers, but also gossipers and busybodies, saying things they ought not to.”
Romans 3:14 “Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.”
Proverbs 29:22 “Anger and malice produce disunity and discord… An angry person stirs up strife, And a hot-tempered person abounds in transgression”
Paul explains:
Romans 1:28-32 “28 ….. God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; 32 and, although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.”
Galatians 5:19-21 “19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, 21 envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you just as I have forewarned you that those who practice such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.”
Understand God’s Message:
Ephesians 4:29 “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths”
Ephesians 4:31 “Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.”
Psalm 37:8-9 “Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil. For the evildoers shall be cut off”
Colossians 3:8 “But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
Leviticus 19:16 “‘Do not go about spreading slander among your people. Do not do anything that endangers your neighbor’s life. I am the LORD”.
Psalms 34:13 “Keep your tongue from evil…”
Psalms 101:5 “Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, him will I put to silence; whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, him will I not endure.”
Proverbs 6:16-19 16 There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: 17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood 18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, 19 a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
Proverbs 10:18 “He who conceals his hatred has lying lips, and whoever spreads slander is a fool.”
Proverbs 11:9 “With their mouth the godless destroys their neighbor…”
Proverbs 16:28 “A perverse person stirs up dissension, and a gossip separates close
friends.
Proverbs 17:9 “One who covers over an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.”
Titus 3:2 “..to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and to show true humility toward all…”
James 4:11 “Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it.”
1 Peter 2:1 “Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind.”
1 Peter 3:7-9 “To sum up, let all be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; not returning evil for evil, or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing.”
Truly God’s Word is clear, concise and in Authority. Thank you Christ Jesus for the blessing of receiving and understanding Your Word, Amen
"Love, yes Love"John 13:34-35 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. ”
Romans 12:9 “[Let your] love be sincere-a real thing”
1 John 3:18 “…Let us not love [merely] in theory or in speech but in deed and in truth…”
In my Love for You Christ Jesus my Savior I share Your Word of Love with those I Love, with all. Amen
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
Father, because love is patient…
Help me to be slow to judge, but quick to listen. Hesitant to criticize, but eager to encourage, remembering your endless patience with me.
Because love is kind…
Help my words to be gentle and my actions to be thoughtful. Remind me to smile and to say “Please” and “Thank You” because those little things still mean so much.
Because love does not envy or boast, and it is not proud…
Help me have a heart that is humble and sees the good in others. May I celebrate and appreciate all that I have and all that I am, as well as doing the same for those around me.
Because love is not rude or self-seeking…
Help me to speak words that are easy on the ear and on the heart. When I’m tempted to get wrapped up in my own little world, remind me there’s a great big world out there full of needs and hurts.
Because love is not easily angered and keeps no record of wrongs…
Help me to forgive others as you have forgiven me. When I want to hold onto a grudge, gently help me release it so I can reach out with a hand of love instead.
Because love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth…
Help me stand up for what is right and good. May I defend the defenseless, and help the helpless. Show me how I can make a difference.
Because love always protects and always trusts…
Help me to be a refuge for those around me. When the world outside is harsh and cold, may my heart be a place of acceptance and warmth.
Finally, because love always perseveres…
Help my heart continually beat with love for You and others. Thank you for this day when we celebrate love, and for showing us what that word really means.
Amen
"As I do for you, forgive and forget"
Philippians 3:13-14 “But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen

"I am the Word"John 1:1-5 “1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
In the world there are many people, some who are over us in authority and others who appear successful, educated and well respected at our jobs, in the local churches, as well as, social groups who have strong ideas on the way we should live. Many of them declare the way we should pray, where we should go to church, how we should practice our religion and that our eternal destiny is defined by our method of human works and acts.
Now, for sure, our Lord has placed His chosen among us who in fact can and should have their positions of leadership and share these ideas with us.
Each of us, individually, can have the ultimate knowledge and Spiritual understanding that all of this is from Christ and recognize those who know Him. We can receive a Divine ability to discern those that are leading by His Spirit from those who lead with pride, often defining their positions of righteousness, social standing or authority because of wealth or human influence.
We can easily receive the ability to understand what is Right and what is the absolute Truth and you can have this knowledge and Spiritual understanding now! Given to us by His Grace, without any deserving act, work, or way of life at all. Just by knowing Christ!
Yes, knowing Christ is very easy and is the only way to really understand His Message for You and to receive your eternal destiny.
God, bless those who have Christ revealed to them and who know Jesus!
We know those He has revealedHimself to by the bold testimony of Truth and Word they share and when He has revealed Himself to you, you too will know!
Seek Him, know Him and understand His Message for You!
Yes, it is that simple:
"I tell you the Truth"Matthew 11:25-30 25 “At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure.”
27 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

We pray you bless her family and friends with the comfort and understanding on Your Holy Spirit can provide.

“You are free from your past.”Psalm 34:5 “Those who look to Him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.”
As we grow through seasons of “Life“, we carry more and more concerns and emotions over our experiences, thoughts and things we have said and done. When you look to Christ, He immediate forgives and blesses you. He sees you as the beautiful young and innocent child He created.
Father, thank you for removing our grief, guilt, regret, emotions and concerns over the past and we praise You for this new day, this new start. Yes, our faces glow in radiance as we delight in Your blessings.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen

Prayer request for Richard Colombo’s son from his father. His son, 19, suffers from a life time of heart problems and is now going through a series of examinations. Richard’s son was blessed at an early age, as some of us also were, with the wonderful experience of seeing His face, the incredible bright light. Yes, with this we know Richard’s son, and those of us who have seen His light, are living for Him and all the comes through our lives is by and for His good:

1 An oracle concerning Egypt. Behold, the Lord is riding on a swift cloud and comes to Egypt;and the idols of Egypt will tremble at his presence,
and the heart of the Egyptians will melt within them.
2 And I will stir up Egyptians against Egyptians, and they will fight, each against another and each against his neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom;
3 and the spirit of the Egyptians within them will be emptied out, and I will confound [1] their counsel; and they will inquire of the idols and the sorcerers, and the mediums and the necromancers;
4 and I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a hard master, and a fierce king will rule over them, declares the Lord God of hosts.
Father, we pray Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. We pray for peace and love, yet we are patient and wise to Your signs. Bless us, Your chosen, with an understanding of these times and lead us to share Your Word and guidance by Your Will.

It seems to be a fact of life that when we want to do what is right, we inevitably do what is wrong. We love to do God’s will; but something else deep within us, in our lower nature, is often at war with our mind and draws us to the sin that is still within us. In our minds we want to be God’s willing servants but instead, at times, we continue to struggle with sin.
Romans 8:7 The old sinful nature within us is against God. It never did obey God’s laws and it never will…
So you see how it is: our new life tells us to do right, but our old nature, still inside us is drawn to sin.
We are in a difficult predicament. Who can free us from this lower nature? From this struggle where we are so……
Romans 7:25 Thank God! It has been done by Jesus Christ our Lord. He has set us free.
Romans 8 has wonderful news: So there is now “no condemnation” awaiting those who belong to Christ Jesus. Through His life-giving Spirit – and this power is ours through Christ Jesus – has freed us from sin.
Romans 8:1-4 ……So now we can obey God’s laws if we “follow” after the Holy Spirit and no longer obey the old evil nature within us.
Wonderful! The Holy Spirit supplies power for us to live as a “Spiritual” person. A Christians life is not established through “our own” efforts but by His power in us!
If you understand this, at this point, you are ready to understand “The Meaning of Life“.
Now we can trust Jesus to live His “Life” through us. He alone will enable us to live a supernatural life, through the power of the Holy Spirit, the “Christian” life.
By faith we can experience God’s love and forgiveness and live as a spiritual person. Faith pleases God. Faith built on the truth and knowledge that Jesus lives in us. We place your faith in our trustworthy God and His Word.
By faith we can declare “the truth” in what Jesus Christ has said and done for us. By faith we can view ourselves as God views us, as His children – loved and forgiven. By faith we can confess and change and by faith we accept God’s forgiveness.
Faith that the Holy Spirit is God. He is a person possessing a will, intellect and emotions. He is the third person of the Trinity – co-equal with God the Father and God the Son. There is only one God, who manifests himself in three persons, the Trinity.
Now we have declared that Jesus lives in us, we have faith that Jesus is God. The Holy Spirit is God. God is God and lives in us. With the Holy Spirit, we now can live a Spiritual life!!!!
The Holy Spirit came to glorify Christ and to “lead” believers into “all truth”.
Now this is where it can be difficult for many of us unless we have an understanding and a solid faith in the last three paragraphs; hearing His Word, understanding His Spiritual guidance and knowing we are living in His Spirit. We must stand firm in this!
The pace at which many Christians mature in this understanding varies and most are still overly burdened by carnal and worldly influences and control. We who understand (by God’s Will) should now have patience with our Brothers and Sisters as they mature, and with humility we should nurture others on their path to understanding and continue to “let Him” lead them through us. We are His servants.
We receive and live a holy spiritual life only from the help of the Holy Spirit for, “the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.”
To be filled with the Holy Spirit is to be filled with Christ. The Holy Spirit came to glorify Christ. Therefore, we are filled with the Spirit and abiding in Christ. We are walking in the light as He is the light. The word “filling” means to be controlled, one who is led and empowered by the Spirit – the Lord Jesus will live His resurrection life in and through us.
The standards of the Christian life are very high and impossible for us to fully achieve. According to the Word of God, only one person has been able to succeed. That person is Jesus Christ. Now, through His indwelling presence, He will enable all who place their trust and faith in Him to live in His supernatural life.
Letting Jesus Christ live His resurrection and life in and through us, we will bear spiritual fruit as naturally as a healthy vine will bear an abundance of fruit.
Jesus said:
John 15:8 “By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be “My” disciples.”
In Jesus’ name I declare what I share with you to be from His Holy Spirit that lives in me, and I am thankful to be His servant.

“This is my command.”1 John 4:16 “…Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.”
1 John 4:19-21 “We love because He first loved us. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen
"Believe when you hear!"Ephesians 1:13-14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation.

In Jesus Name’ Amen

We pray you touch the heart of his father to return Jacob home and that You will redeem his father of the issues that led to this situation and any power or influence the enemy may have over him.

Have you decided to stand firm in your Faith? If you want to establish your Faith you can do it now !!
Are you realizing many around you are not comfortable with your new way of life? It’s true, they will notice the change and they will say things that may cause your emotions to control your thoughts in a negative way. You may suddenly feel as if you are looked down upon or at least different from those making you feel down.
This is a real situation. This will actually happen, but you can make sure you understand the “Truth” and know what is “right” and correct by God’s will.
Many people you know have worldly eyes and thoughts that are not “right” or correct in God’s Spirit, not in “Truth” – not yet ;-).
They will question you; “Who do you think you are?” They will judge you; “You are not perfect.” “You are doing this for selfish reasons.” Then they will question you again; “So why do you think you can speak about God and Christ Jesus, about His way of Life, about His Word?”
Well, today you can stand firm in your Faith. Take care not to embellish or generalize your knowledge to explain your decision to be a Christian and to share His word, to start a prayer group, to hold a fundraiser to raise a church, to live a “Life” following His Word. Use God’s Word ! John tells us why and how to do this, and when we understand and use God’s Word (bless you Lord for Your Word) we stand in truth, firm in our Faith.
1 John 1
The Word of Life
1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. 2 The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 4 We write this to make our joy complete.
Walking in the light
5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
So, He is real and is Truth and He is the Light, which we can rightfully fellowship in and share with others and “Live” in.
1 John 2
3 We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands. 4 The man who says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But if anyone obeys his word, God’s love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: 6 Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.
7 Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old one, which you have had since the beginning. This old command is the message you have heard. 8 Yet I am writing you a new command; its truth is seen in him and you, because the darkness is passing and the true light is already shining.
9 Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness. 10 Whoever loves his brother lives in the light, and there is nothing in him to make him stumble. 11 But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness; he does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded him.
If you have people around you, relatives, friends, social leaders and others that are talking about you and not supporting you, when you are standing in and on the Word of Truth, the Light, and they are not backing their positions with scripture, then there are at least two things in the works.
1.) A spiritual separation (which is a natural and physical separation in the world) is occurring because you have moved into the “Light”. You have placed God at the “Head” of your Life.
2.) or as John continues: 1 John 2
19 They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us.
Be prepared for this change and understand it is by His Divine plan for you! If you feel you are loosing someone who is close to you in your life, and this does hurt (God knows this) and you want them to remain in your Life, pray and God will bring them back to you. If you are in His Spirit and they mature into His Spirit, your relationship will be blessed by God and you will come back together. God may even use you to bring them into Him!!
Be ready to do this, as well be careful!!
1 John 3 – 7 Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous.
Then, when in His Spirit, we can love one another.
1 John 3
16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. 17 If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? 18 Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. 19 This then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence 20 whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.
21 Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God 22 and receive from him anything we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him. 23 And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. 24 Those who obey his commands live in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.
Confidence happens with maturity and growing in His Spirit. This occurs with understanding His Word. His Word is only understood when you accept Christ Jesus in Faith for Gods Grace and Mercy. AMEN ?? !!!
So when you notice and feel a separation from people close to you, understand His Word. As well, when He leads them to you, share this Word:
1 John 4
13 We know that we live in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 15If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God. 16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. 17 In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. 18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
19 We love because he first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. 21 And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.
John gives us more direction, and in 2 John, a sound and direct message to those who are struggling with the “Change” we are discussing and the potential emotional driven thoughts some of us will go through. Because in this world we are subject to a power greater then us, unless we have Christ’s power:
1 John 5 – 19We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.
Now, in those days, men were often (not always) the ones to take on the role of sharing His Word. Today, all of us can share His word (and we should), but at that time (and the message still applies to everyone) John issued a strong message to wives and mothers regarding those He (God) has chosen to spread His word:
2 John 1
1 The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth—and not I only, but also all who know the truth – 2 because of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever:
8 Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. 9 Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or welcome him.
Be confident in full knowledge that God knows what is going on:
3 John 1
10 So if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, gossiping maliciously about us.
The message here is to support the one in your Life that is sharing God’s Good News, His Word. If others say anything, ask anything and it is not in line with His Word or teachings, be very discerning, in fact, do not listen to them at all, in fact, share the teachings you know and understand, or have the one in your Life that is teaching and sharing His Word to share with them. This is the way of Jesus – AMEN !!
You that have accepted Jesus, accepted the change and are sharing His Word, know this:
3 John 1
2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and that you keep well, even as your soul keeps well and prospers.
5 Beloved, it is a fine and faithful work that you are doing when you give any service to the our brethren, and especially when they are strangers.
7 For these teachers have gone out for His Name’s sake and are receiving nothing from the strangers they teach.
8 So we ourselves ought to support such people and provide for them, in order that we may be fellow workers in the Truth and cooperate with its teachers.
Isn’t His Word so simple!! With all the explanations (and the lenghthy sermon above) that seem to be required to help us understand what goes on in this world, with people of this world, influenced by what is not “right”, God makes it so easy to understand. Simply, do not listen to them, Listen again to the Voice of Truth, believe in Jesus Christ, have faith you are making a good choice, sharing His Word, and you will overcome every attack, every challenge standing in your path, and you will receive all of His blessings for you today, and you will Live Forever!
Father, we have faith in your Healing Word and that Your Will shall be done on earth as it is in Heaven. We believe, in the name of Jesus, that Rita will be comforted while in the hospital and blessed with fast healing. We pray you bless her with Your Healing power, according to 1 Peter 2:24. Your Word explains that Jesus Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses.
Therefore, with great boldness and confidence we say on the authority of Your written Word that Rita, in faith, is redeemed and will be covered by You at this time.
We have the assurance of Your Word that Your Holy Spirit encamps around us and by Your Plan delivers us from sickness and injury. No evil shall befall us, no plague or calamity shall win over us. We confess Your Word abides in us and delivers to us perfect soundness of mind and wholeness in body and spirit from the deepest parts of our nature in our immortal spirit even to the joints and marrow of our bones. Your Word is medication and “Life” to our flesh for the law of the Spirit of Life operates in us and makes us free from the law of illness and injury.
We wear the armor of Your Word to protect us from all the fiery darts sent towards us. Jesus is the high Priest of our confession and we hold fast to our confession of faith in You and Your Word. We stand immovable and fixed in full assurance that Rita will be healed.
"An Angel with a Message"Prayer request by His Message for You for Noah Jones and his family as they take action to bring awareness to the world about CFC – Cardio-Facio-Cutaneous. Their little Angel Sidney Jean Blackwood Jones was born with CFC and our Lord rescued her.
Message from Noah:
We were often asked throughout our journey with Sidney what she had. No one ever knew. All we could tell was that she was special. “One in a million special” to be exact! We found out yesterday that Sidney had a very rare syndrome called CFC. There are only 300 cases WORLD WIDE. It is not hereditary and that’s what makes it even more crazy! It blows us away that we were chosen to carry this Angel and to give her life.
Father, we know part of Sidney’s short life with us was to deliver Your Message. Bless Noah, his family and all those who are sharing Sidney’s message with this world. We pray for Your gifts to be upon our Scientist, Doctor’s and medicine to understand CFC, help those who are born with this syndrome and everyone who is supporting the effort to overcome CFC.
In Jesus Name we pray together in faith, Amen
Prayer request by His Message for You for Lizette Veyna and her Grandfather as her Grandmother and his wife of 50 years prepares to go Home.
Father, we understand you are preparing Lizette’s Grandmother to come Home at Your time. We have faith Your Will shall be done on earth as it is in Heaven. We know Your Angels are with her and at the right time will carry her directly to Your open arms to welcome her home and she will rest in Your light and peace while she awaits, with the rest of us in faith, for the day You call us all to be with You as a whole.
We have complete faith in Your Word:
Ephesians 1:9-11 “God has now revealed to us His mysterious plan regarding Christ, a plan to fulfill His own good pleasure. And this is the plan: At the right time He will bring everything together under the authority of Christ — everything in Heaven and on earth. Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything workout according to his plan.”
1 Corinthians 15:51-57: “Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye….we shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed…and this mortal shall have put on immortality… thanks be to God, which giveth us this victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Bless Lizette, her Grandfather and her family with the comfort and understanding only Your Holy Spirit can provide.
