Hundreds Die in Powerful Peruvian Quake

The news is gut wrenching, specially for someone that lived in a temblor zone growing up!

The news headline says: "Hundreds Die in Powerful Peruvian Quake" and the link is at:

Let's pray for survivors, the injured, the families with loss of relatives... also for God's protection against epidemics due to amount of dead, heat, lack of sanitation facilities...

How do I know if it's God?


Greetings,

received this email today that helps in times of uncertainties of what is what... here is copy with Dr. Ollison's permission, may it be a blessing to you too:

How Do I Know If It's God? by Dr. Larry Ollison

For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. (1 Corinthians 14:33)

As a pastor, I continually have people bringing problems and circumstances to me for counsel. Usually, after they have taken some time to explain the situation, they will give the solution that they feel they have for the problem. Then they look at me and say, “Is that what I am supposed to do? Do you think God gave me this answer? How can I know if I heard from God or could it be the devil trying to trick me?”

The answer here actually is quite simple. Follow peace. Over the years I have discovered that God always works through love, goodness, and peace.

When Loretta and I were first married, a man approached me about buying into an oil well. I was so excited. I had plans of being an oil tycoon. I read about oil. I studied about the oil industry. Only two things stood between me and the investment -- money and Loretta. Something didn’t seem right deep inside, but the mental thrill of being a millionaire overpowered me.

I sold my new Camaro and talked Loretta into allowing me to make this venture. In a few short months, the oil man left town with my money and I was faced with two major tasks. First, I had to swallow my pride and ask Loretta and God to forgive me. Secondly, I had to buy another car because I had no transportation.

All of this could have been resolved if I would have just allowed myself to have been led by the Spirit and followed peace. Instead, I was head-lead and ended up being a “lead head.” I learned my lesson.

So the next time you are wondering if something is God or not, ask yourself these questions. “Do I feel inner peace and I am I being led by the Spirit?” If you can answer these questions honestly, you have your answer.

I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh (Galatians 5:16).

Feeling under attack lately? Rejoice when you are obedient to God... now fight the devil wiles!


Greetings,

I always say that why to invent the wheel... so instead of trying to compose my own message I am printing the message posted by a dear sister that is right on target on demonic attacks and how to defeat the devils purpose to make us give up and be ineffective in ministry...

Under attack lately? Rejoice when You are obedient to God... now fight the devil wiles!

Everyone that is under demonic attack and oppression thinks they are the only one... what a lie... every Christian walking in obedient to Jesus directions is under attack at one time or another...

Here is a very good message and prayer on taking authority as believers against the devils lies and wiles trying to tell you that God does not care for us, does not love us, all all his evil wiles:

Subject: PRAYING FOR ALL OF YOU - LIFTING YOUR FAMILIES UP FOR DELIVERANCE...
Name: SHERRY
Date Posted: Aug 12, 07 - 8:58 AM
Message: Jesus gives his authority to his followers. His disciples long ago, and still today, have Christ's authority to be free and to be bless. The following prayer offers a model for us.

In the name of Jesus Christ,
and by the power of His Blood and His Cross
I bind all spirits in the air and the fire,
in the water and the ground,
in the underground and in the netherworld.
I bind all satanic forces in nature.
I bind all curses, hexes and spells,
witchcraft and occult activity.
I bind the interaction and interplay of all spirits.
I claim the protection of the shed Blood of Jesus Christ over... (name persons or places - including your own if needed!)

I now call Michael the Archangel
and his army of angels to surround, fill and protect this place... (name any locations where there is need)
I praise God for all of His heavenly angels.
I call them forth now and release them
to surround and fill us
with God's power and blessings,
in the name of the Father, and the Son,
and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Praise Report on what God is doing in Iraq and souls receiving His salvation!


Greetings everyone,

from time to time I post in different links messages of Praise on God's blessings to outreaches around the World witnessing His good news to souls in every language, nationality and race. The reason I do that is to enlarge our own vision of God's blessings through our witnessing efforts and ministry to others in our small limited ways and to share praises of God's 'total picture' of His harvest. So, here is another Praise report from what God is doing in Iraq through World Missionary Press. As I shared here before all literature are sent free of charges -sometimes even they pay for postages when the ministry cannot afford the expenses too...

*** Awesome news!

This past Monday we were blessed by a visit from Pastor Ghassan Thomas from a dynamic church in Baghdad, Iraq. He shared about his 1,000-member growing church--10-15 people are accepting Christ each week!--and that there are 17 new churches in Baghdad and 30 throughout the country of Iraq. (There were just two churches in Saddam Hussein's day.)

He reported that all the literature from the 20-ft. container WMP sent three years ago has been dispersed.

World Missionary Press materials are passed out to disgruntled drivers who have to wait two days to fill up their gas tanks! They are distributed in Samaritan Purse's gift shoe boxes and at clinics and through churches as members go door to door. Even people of the M faith accept our green Arabic New Testaments with respect. When asked if he needed more booklets, Ghassan said with his heart-touching smile that they are out and he would "wish" for more.

This is an answer to prayer--we have been praying for another opportunity to ship a container of God's Word to Iraq. Plans are now underway to send a 40-foot container with 2,000 boxes of Arabic New Testaments, 1,950 boxes of Arabic Scripture booklets, and 200 boxes of Arabic salvation coloring books to Iraq. We need to produce this literature quickly because Brother Ghassan would like the container in Baghdad by early November. (So we must ship it by early September.)

He has requested to keep the container itself, both for storage and for added protection from car bombs!

In a miraculous and amazingly quick way, God has funded this entire project--at a cost of more than $80,000--through a sensitive-spirited and generous couple who "happened" to be visiting WMP the day that Ghassan Thomas came to share with us. They were touched by this urgent need and wonderful opportunity.

Please pray for production to go smoothly through July and August for this Iraq container, and pray that the container will safely reach its destination early in November. A youth pastor who heard Pastor Ghassan's chapel talk eagerly offered his 115-member youth group to volunteer with extra production. Other groups have expressed willingness to help as well.

God is at work in thrilling ways to reach hurting people with the healing power of His Word.

Thank you so much for your interest in the worldwide ministry of World Missionary Press.

Your friends in Christ,

Jay and Vicky Benson

What the devil intended to use to destroy a community, the Lord is using for new life and faith!

Greetings,

Be blessed too reading this message on what the devil intended to use to destroy a community, the Lord is using for new life and faith renewal! Read the news:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
** TORNADO DESTROYS AG CHURCH, BUT OPENS MINISTRY DOORS

Last year, Pastor Christa Zapfe called the 45-member congregation of Lighthouse Worship Center Assembly of God in Greensburg, Kansas, to 40 days of fasting and prayer. Afterward, she encouraged the parishioners to write what the Holy Spirit had spoken to their hearts. They wrote words such as "healing," "transformation," "restoration" and "protection."

Just as the biblical Joshua instructed the priests to gather stones to build a monument after crossing the Jordan River, Zapfe transferred the congregation's words to bricks and placed them inside the church. "We did not worship the bricks," she says, "but they were a reminder of God's faithfulness."

When a 205-mph tornado ripped through Greensburg on May 4, about 95 percent of the town was destroyed, including the church. But the bricks remained untouched.

Zapfe says the bricks will be used when the church is rebuilt - as a symbol of the Lord's protection. "We know God was with us," she says. No members of the Assemblies of God church in the town of 1,500 perished.

Lighthouse Worship Center plans to erect a tent on the church's property as a temporary sanctuary, while a new facility is constructed.

The Kansas District of the Assemblies of God, led by Superintendent Terry Yancey, responded quickly to the disaster, along with ministries such as Convoy of Hope plus teams of workers from across Kansas, Mississippi, Louisiana and elsewhere. A large tent was erected to serve as a feeding station for the community. More than 800 hot meals a day were served.

As residents descended on the feeding station, members of Zapfe's congregation ministered to them. Meanwhile, church-based clean-up crews, coordinated by presbyter Dwight Dozier, helped with the removal of debris.

When Steve Irwin and Paul Coroleuski, Convoy of Hope's disaster response coordinators, first arrived on the scene they saw complete devastation.

"Telephone poles and trees were snapped like toothpicks, cars were overturned and thrown everywhere, and virtually no buildings were
standing," Irwin says. "It was a city of rubble.

"God has given the church here and Pastor Christa great favor," Irwin, fighting back tears, relates. "We've gone street by street passing out drinks and sharing the love of Christ with people who were rummaging through the debris that was once their homes. People are so thankful."

Irwin is heartened by the cooperation across denominational and ministry lines. "No one is trying to bring glory to their own organization or church," he says. "They're working to lift up the name of Christ." An estimated 1,800 people gathered for a
nondenominational community church service on Sunday, May 13. The service included clergy speakers from various local congregations providing optimism and encouragement in the midst of calamity.

"We are a scattered, dispersed community," said Gene McIntosh, pastor of First United Methodist Church in Greensburg. "But the Lord Jesus is our Redeemer and is with us. 'Do not fear for I am with you,' says the Lord."

"Trust in the Lord with all your strength," said Tim Henning, pastor of Peace Lutheran Church in Greensburg.

Zapfe reminded residents and relief workers of God's promise in Jeremiah 29:11: "'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'"

When Zapfe looks across Greensburg, she sees more than rubble and a town that needs to be rebuilt; she sees an opportunity to rebuild lives.

"We need to pray that people's lives will be transformed for Jesus," Zapfe says.
