The temple of His chosing Jesus spent many days teaching in the temple among the people. What is amazing is that this in itself can be seen as a fullfillment of the prophesy in Malachi 3 where it says "and the Lord, whom you seek, Will suddenly come to His temple". The temple was where the Holy of Holies stood behind the veil, signifying the way into His presence. The high priest could only venture behind that veil and into the sacred place once a year. Yet Jesus, being fully God in the flesh, "came and dwelt among us" (John 1:4). Jesus who is our eternal High Priest (Hebrews 8:1) not only provided a way into the presence of the Father, but also restored the communion with God that had been lost during the first fall of man in the Garden. Not only did He come to dwell amongst us, He also began building His real temple inside his church who is also His Bride. " in whom you also are being built together for a  dwelling place of God in the Spirit." (Ephesians...

Why Worry?

 With some amazing telescopes scientists have estimated there are around 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe. We do not have the technlogy to even send humans outside our own galaxy, the Milky Way. Imagine that for a minute. Out there are an untold number of unique galaxies that were each designed and crafted by the God of heaven and Earth.  The bible says in Colossians 1:17 that " For  by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or  dominions or  principalities or  powers. All things were created  through Him and for Him "  I think we as christians get so caught up in the world that we forgot just exactly who He is. What reason is there to worry or fret when the God of all creation loves us. Romans 8:37 says: " Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.   For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor princi...

Humility and Prayer

  2 Chronicles 7:14-18 states that " if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 15 Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place. 16 For now I have chosen and sanctified this house, that My name may be there forever; and My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually. 17 As for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, and do according to all that I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and My judgments, 18 then I will establish the throne of your kingdom,           We find a direct corelation between prayer and humility.  God declares, humble your self in the sight of the Lord and He will exalt you in due season.  If we are to reach the altitude promised to us by the Father,  "seated with Christ in hea...

Who's Your Daddy?

THERE IS AN IDENTITY CRISIS IN THE WORLD AND IN THE BODY OF CHRIST.  AS A WHOLE, WE DON'T KNOW WHO OUR DADDY IS.  WHO'S YOUR DADDY?, HAS BECOME A POPULAR STATEMENT.  A VERY TRUE ONE INDEED!  Our Father which art in Heaven, Jesus told us to pray Our Father, He did not refer to Him as His Father although He was his Father.  He is OUR Heavenly Father.  There is an identity crisis in our nation and across the world.  We have entered into the fields of the fatherless.   There is a lack of Fatherhood in our nation.  Everywhere across the board for one reason or another, children are being raised without the blessing and wisdom of their father in their lives.  That is not to say for some, the character and behavior of their fathers, is not worth  the wisdom or blessing that they have to impart .  We are in a time where we desperatly need to know our Heavenly Father .   As a people, we need to find, get to know, an...

How to Be Blessed

Psalm 1 1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. If you want God's blessings in your life, then do not consent with,or follow the ungodly.  God declares if you meditate on the Word of God and follow and obey His instructions, then you will be prosrerous and have good success.   He tells us to meditate day and night, that means ...

Life Happens

So it has been almost a month now since we have been able to post or host the radio show on Blog Talk Radio. Chris and his wife Tracey have been in the process of moving to a new house, and my wife and I have been dealing with just random life stuff. It could also be that we have perhaps gotten lazy, or even that we have become so focused on our own lives we have forgotten why we were doing this ministry to begin with. Let me clarify that last statement. Almost a year ago when Chris and myself began the Prayer International ministry, we were not completely sure where God would take it. We both just knew that God was moving. We also both felt a strong need to have a 24 hour prayer site on the web, where people could go and get prayer anytime day or night. So we created a simple website with that purpose in mind. In the beginning we would get a few prayer requests, which Chris would send responses to, and we also had live video feeds available. However, we soon learned that staffing a ...

You shall know the truth

What is truth? Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life". What did He mean by saying such things? One suggestion is that He is the culmination of everything that has a beginning, when He Himself does not. All things were made through Him, and without Him, nothing was made that was made. (John 1:3). To find out the truth about the reason, purpose, need, and function for any item...you must ask the Creator of that item. Some people wander about seeking out purpose. They search to and fro looking for the satisfaction that only comes from have a reason to exist. Yet few people realize that the answer to that question can not be found anywhere but through and from Him. You see my friends, Jesus is the answer. Jesus is the reason. Jesus is the solution to so many of life's questions. You can read a million books about relationship, and purpose, and destiny. However none of those, while they may be great books, will get you a real revelation about your pur...
