  • “Reproving Warnings”

    10 1 2019 Jonah 3 5
    Praise the Lord Beloved. Happy New Month. 😀

    Allow me to give you a little backdrop about our morning’s verse: Jonah had just been spit out of the mouth of the massive fish and God has called him a “second” time. This time Jonah responds and obeys God’s call. He travels to Nineveh and speaks the message that God has assigned him with. Now, it wasn’t one of those messages that are easy to hear either. It was a powerful message with a strong warning from God for the people of Nineveh, “REPENT or BE DESTROYED.” Wow!!! That’s a really disturbing message, wouldn’t you agree? But it was precisely what the Ninevites needed to hear.
     
    Beloved, sometimes in life we need to hear those powerful reproving warnings in order for God to actually get through to us. It’s never easy, but sometimes it’s precisely what we need to hear and act on. Amen? Aaamen. 😀
     
    Let Us Pray:
    Dear Heavenly Father, I know that You love me. I pray that You speak to my mind today. Give me the words I precisely need to hear and then help me to act in accordance with them.
    In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
     
    Beloved, life is very short. It comes and goes like an unannounced gust of wind. None of us know the hour or day when that gust of wind will be permitted to enter our room and blow out our earthly light. So today, reach out and touch someone and tell them you love them, BECAUSE TELLING THEM LATER JUST MIGHT BE TOO LATE – I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
     
    Have a blessed October and a pleasant Tuesday Everyone.
    😀

  • “A Bundle of Joy”

    Mother's day 3 mothers
    CHOF Ministry’s – Walk with Me

    Happy Mother’s Day!!!

    My Sunday Message this week is called
    “A Bundle of Joy”

    Because it is a very special day, I will post it in it’s entirety in all the social media sites we are affiliated with.

    Beloved, Exodus 2:3 says: “But when she couldn’t hide him any longer, she got him a wicker basket and covered it over with tar and pitch. Then she put the child into it and set it among the reeds by the bank of the Nile.”

    Just think about that!!! This was a crying baby in an ark that is bobbing along the banks of the Nile River filled with crocodile!!! The child could have been a tasty treat for the crocodiles. This was not an easy choice for Jochebed. A portion of her mind and emotions walked outside of her body for four decades.

    But it’s here we see her faith in God come to life. Freeing Moses into his calling launched one of the most powerful weapons known to man. “THE PRAYING MOTHER.” Beloved, if you are blessed with one, then you already know.  These “soldiers” are a force to deal with. They keep praying when others stop. Will fast when others won’t. Will stand up when others sit down. Just think, there have been many lives that have abruptly been turned around by the remark, “I had a praying’ momma.” And you know, these strategists are doubled in power if the grandmother’s involved.

    2 Timothy 1:5 says: “For I am mindful of the sincere faith within you, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am sure that it is in you as well.”

    Beloved, the apostle Paul understood the spiritual legacy of the maternal vine that reaches deeply into succeeding generations. Rooted faith from praying women who understand the secret things of God. These silent warriors activate the “Moses” in us, so that we have the opportunity to achieve greater things for God’s kingdom, by offering prayers with confirmed results.

    Like Ezekiel and Paul, I have recognized the inspiration of the gift that my praying mother and grandmother have blessed me with. My mother cemented my way to be born a second time into the Kingdom of God. Her personal legacy was to plant goodness and mercy into the lives of not just her children, but also inserting the love and compassion to others also.

    Beloved, God keeps His promises to mothers who in turn blesses the life of her bundle of joy with life and posterity which will powerfully live on though out the child’s life.

    To All the Mothers in The World I Salute You:
    Happy Mother’s Day!!!

  • “A Message to The Transformed

    Exodus 19:4-6 (NLT)
    4 ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians. You know how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. 5 Now if you will obey me and keep my covenant, you will be my own special treasure from among all the peoples on earth; for all the earth belongs to me.
    6 And you will be my kingdom of priests, my holy nation.’ This is the message you must give to the people of Israel.”

    Beloved, now that you’re no longer subjugated by immoral desires that’s in this world and you’ve been Transformed by the renewing powers of The Holy Spirit, the next phase is to start obeying the words of Jesus and it will assist you by directing you away from the people, places and things that captured you and held you as a slave.

    Beloved, many don’t understand or have been hoodwinked that just because they have walked the path of immorality they can’t preach, teach or give moral advice or instruction.
    “WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!” You are the one God desires to use to spread His message(s). As a people free from the things that dominated us in the world, we “YOU” can be priests to the world. That was God’s intention. He wasn’t just building a little social club. Instead of becoming inwardly focused on themselves, they were placed on the trade routes of the world to be an example of what a nation led by God looked like.

    Beloved, God was about to give them (the Israelites) The Ten Commandments. But first, He asked if they wanted to accept the call. Then He instructed them, through the Law, how to be that example the world needed to see. If they could live that way, they would be priests to the world. Now look at who I said asked- “G-O-D!!! NOT A MAN OR A WOMAN!!! In the days of Joshua and some of the reign of David, that was how they were instructed. It was David’s conquest of Israel’s neighbors that brought the influence of the Law to the surrounding nations.

    Beloved, if you have been transformed by the renewing powers of the Holy Spirit then you’re no longer under the direction or supervision of the people, places or things that were keeping you as it’s slave. Now, that you’re free doesn’t mean that you can just hang out in your church’s or ministry’s social group. You were freed to go out and affect the world around you. 😀  It is true we’re not under the Law as our guide anymore. But, today we have a more intimate Instructor, The Holy Spirit. 😀

    Beloved, if you have dedicated yourself to become the LORD’s vessel in every area of life, “you will” need His constant instruction to be the example the world needs. You become a priest to those your life encounters, directing them to the Word of God and showing them an eternal perspective. 1 Peter 2:5 (NLT) says: “And you are living stones that God is building into his spiritual temple. What’s more, you are his holy priests. Through the mediation of Jesus Christ, you offer spiritual sacrifices that please God.”

    Beloved, you’re an heir of this promise through the indwelling Holy Spirit. So, obey Him (not man or woman) fully. The world around you needs the loving influence of the priests of God.

    “To God Be the Glory!!!”

  • “It’s All About The Message”

    Praise the Lord Beloved.
    Jesus came to this earth and lived His earthly life as an everyday down to earth person. He didn’t wear the fancy head wear nor the pompous attire the Pharisees and the Sadducees wore. He’s not recognize by the fancy high dollar suites and ties nor the high class living conditions.

    Today, Jesus is recognized for His love and compassion and the Good News He brought and spread all across the world.

    Have a blessed day Everyone.
    Jesus and Bishop
