“I’m Back!”
I’ve been in hospital for 3 weeks.
Some of you will know that I’ve been fighting cancer this year, however GOD is so Good!
I love Him more and more.
I think He took me to hospital to meet so many lovely people , to tell about His Love!
I will be slowly getting back into this Domain as He leads me.

“The Lord said to ’shout’ today about His Love For You!”
love v. adore, appreciate, cherish, delight in, desire, dote on, enjoy, hold dear, like, take pleasure in, treasure.
Do You fully comprehend how much He Loves You!
He sent His only begotten Son to die for You!
1 John 4: 9,10.(KJV)
In this was manifested the love of God toward us,
because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
Herein is love, not that we loved God,
but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Jeremiah 31: 3.(KJV)
The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love:
therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.
1 Corinthians 2: 9.(KJV)
But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
“He loved us first!”
“Oyez!” “Oyez!”

“Listen!
Mankind is forever yearning for the beauty we see around us.
We are moved by the sunrise, the sunset.
Scenic views, affect us…
we ache for something more.
The hunger is never filled.
People go to scenic places for a holiday,
looking for peace.
It’s homesickness!
We had it really great before Adam and Eve sinned:
The Garden and God!
Genesis 3: 23.(KJV)
Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
Mankind will never be at peace, never stop yearning…
Until we are reunited with our Heavenly Father.
Romans 8: 22,23. (KJV)
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
Titus 2: 13.(KJV)
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.
We are searching the Horizon for His return!
We long for Him and His presence!
When you ask Him into your heart and life, you will find peace!
One day He’ll come back for His children!
People get ready!!

“God has heard your cry!”
Listen to what He says to you.
He sent Jesus from heaven to save you!
Jesus came and suffered for you, He gave up His home in heaven to come and rescue you.
Say not in your heart that God has forsaken you!
He says ‘Never shall I leave you, never will I forsake you!’
He sees your pain.
He has told me to shout this call.
For some this is a crucial moment in your life.
You are very precious to Him.
He does not want anyone to perish!
Deuteronomy 31: 6.(KJV)
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them:
for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee,
he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Hebrews 13: 5. (KJV)
Let your conversation be without covetousness;
and be content with such things as ye have:
for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
God is true to His promises-
He sent Jesus to save you,
Jesus was the suffering servant.
He was afflicted in your place.
Every ache; all the agony; the anguish of Gethsemane;
the misery and ordeal:
He did for the joy set before Him!
The joy?
Yes!
He saw the joy of your salvation!
Hebrews 12:2. (KJV)
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;
who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross,
despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Was the ordeal worthwhile?
He thinks it was!
The pain, the pangs, the torment, the torture!
What was it for?
So you wouldn’t be judged and sent to hell.
Don’t make it all null and void in your life.
When you suffer, let Him support and sustain you.
When you sorrow, grieve, hurt:
remember he experienced it all first.
Hebrews 4: 15.(KJV)
For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities;
but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Don’t give in!
Be strong and of good courage.
Jesus the ‘Suffering Servant’ will uphold you.
He has gone before you.

“Jesus’ Love gives you solace!”
Exodus 15: 23, 24, 25, 27. (KJV)
And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter:
therefore the name of it was called Marah.
And the people murmured against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”
And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet:
there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them.
And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and three-score and ten palm trees:
and they encamped there by the waters.
Jesus sacrifice on Calvary was for your complete healing=
Body, soul, and Spirit.
Those things that have made you bitter, can cause you to murmur against God.
When you arrive before the waters of Marah, when you come to the end of yourself:
then will the LORD cast into the waters the tree of Calvary!
The waters will be made sweet by the sacrifice of Jesus.
The sweetness of Jesus love will give you solace.
He is the LORD that healeth thee…
Then shall you come to the abundance of Elim!
To the sweet waters, to the shade of the palms.
God’s provision was always there!
Drink deeply of His Love.
John 7: 37-39. ( Weymouth.)
On the last day of the Festival-the great day-
Jesus stood up and cried aloud,
“Whoever is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.
He who believes from within him shall as the Scripture has said rivers of living water shall flow.”
He referred to the Spirit which those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not bestowed as yet, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
Come and exchange your bitter waters for the Living Waters!

If you have been ‘kissed and blessed and given to God,’ then you are blessed indeed!
Mark 10: 16. ( Weymouth)
Then He took them in His arms and blessed them lovingly,
one by one,
laying His hands upon them.
If you have been consecrated to Christ and had His hand laid upon you,
remember that Holy touch,
let your life be pure and true.
Maybe you never had parents or grandparents who laid hands on your head and blessed you?
This is your time!
You can receive a blessing!
Exodus 32: 29. (KJV)
“For Moses had said, ‘Consecrate yourselves to day to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.’ “
Consecrate yourself to the LORD, and receive God’s blessing this day!
Ephesians 1: 3. (NIV)
“Praise be to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.”
Be ‘Born-Again,’ you’ll become God’s adopted child! (Ephesians1:5.)
Let Him lay His hand upon you and bless you.
Numbers 6: 24- 26. (KJV)
“The LORD Bless thee, and keep thee:
The LORD make his face shine upon thee,
and be gracious unto thee:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee,
and give thee peace.”

“Oyez! “Oyez!” “Oyez!”
Matthew 6
I stand in the market place of the World
and give this ’shout’,
here where everyone scurries about,
rushing around, they make it their aim…
to attach themselves to monetary gain.
You cannot be servants both to God and to gold,
whatever you grasp for,
that you will hold.
Be certain of this…
your life is more precious ,
of more value to God,
than what you’re made of!
Your Heavenly Father feeds the birds,
much more does He want
to feed you…
stop running with the herd!
Watch the growth of the wild lilies in the field,
they neither toil, nor spin,
to Him they yield.
Don’t be anxious about these things…
what to wear, what to eat, what to drink,
your Heavenly Father knows what you think.
King David said in Psalm thirty seven:
he was young, now is old,
yet never saw he the righteous forsaken,
nor their children begging bread!
Let it be said…
When you make His KIngdom and righteousness your Chief Aim…
the Paradox is…
all the other you’ll gain!

All ye people here this day, stop and listen to the words I say:
“Where are you heading?”
Psalm 37: 23. (KJV)
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.
1 Peter 2: 21. ( Weymouth)
“And it is to this you were called; because Christ also suffered on your behalf, leaving you an example so that you should follow in His steps.”
Prior to this verse Peter is talking about if when you do right and suffer for it you bear it patiently, this is an accepable thing with God.
He then goes on to say Jesus never sinned, he never deceived. When He was reviled, He did not answer with reviling, when He suffered He uttered no threats, but left His wrongs in the hands of the righteous Judge.
This is saying here as recorded in Matthew’s Gospel that we’re to go the extra mile.
This was what a Roman soldier would do: He could compel/force a citizen to carry his goods one mile-Jesus says go the extra mile!
Matthew 5: 41. ( Weymouth)
“Whoever shall compel you to convey his goods one mile, go with him two.”
If we follow in Jesus steps, our lives would be radically changed!
The Church would be changed!
The World would be changed!
Here’s the Challenge to all Pastors and leaders!
If you challenged your congregation to ask in every decision and situation in life:
“What would Jesus do?”
Do you ( Pastors) think that things would radically change?
Do you ( Pastors) think that just maybe a revival would break out?
Why don’t you do it!
Give every member of your church a copy of Charles M. Sheldon’s book=
In His Steps.
Call for a study of it!
A prayer meeting for those commited to follow in His Steps!
Every Christian should read ‘In His Steps.’
“What are you reading by the way?
Revival comes when Christians pray!
Oh, I’ll do all this another day…
No wonder things stay this way!
Wake up, shake up, shape up,
God would say!”

“Oh, if only you could comprehend the Love that binds!”
Romans 8: 35-38. (Weymouth)
“Who shall separate us from Christ’s love?
Shall affliction or distress, persecution of hunger, nakedness or danger or the sword?
As it stands written in the Scripture,
‘For thy sake they are, all day long, trying to kill us;
we have been looked upon as sheep destined for slaughter.’
Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who has loved us.
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither the lower ranks of evil angels nor the higher, neither things present nor things future, nor the forces of nature, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God which rests upon us in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
You may wander off from the Saviour, but He will ever seek after you!
Jesus misses even one, who strays away. (Luke 15)
No mother ever had so many children that if one of them wandered from home she wouldn’t miss it!
Christ’s love is like that!
He doesn’t love us only as a race, but as individuals!
Parents of stolen, lost, missing children never give up looking for them!
Weary, broken-hearted. going from city to city, giving up everything in this one sad search.
Christ seeks the lost one that has wandered away from His home of love.
He seeks ’til he finds! ( Luke 15: 5.)
When He finds, He will rejoice…
Zephaniah 3: 17. (KJV)
“The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty;
he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy;
he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.”
The Love That Binds was what brought Jesus to this earth.
He fulfilled the Scripture in Isaiah 61: 1 (KJV) Luke 4: 18- 21.)
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me;
because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek;
he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of prison to them that are bound.”
