A month has gone by and you note that
nothing has changed, except you are older.
One month is a small increment in life's journey
A deceptive movement forward in your life.
Make sure you are not deluded in thinking you have
plenty of time to get what God wants you to do
so you put off getting God's work done.
As you read below articles you know that I have had a
battle in this area procrastination, which is a curse.
You and I will run out of time.
unless
if right now you do God's work.
Then you are not tooooo late
Great.

Life does get away and I am happy to say
the Lord has brought me into line.
I thank him for that.
During the week I have been looking at Psalm 65 where
we can be extremely happy if the Lord has brought.
us close to him and enjoy the goodness in his house
Also in Psalm 66 where David said, "Truly God has listened to me"
That is something when in your heart you can say God has truly, truly
listened to me and answered my supplication
I can honestly say God has brought me close to him.
I still get up about 2 am and spend about 1 1/2 hours
looking at new sections of the Bible. This time has become
precious in every way. I sense that I move into his sanctuary.
The sanctuary where the great God lives and my wonderful Father.

I have been celebrating that
my site has reached new levels of you visiting.
A super great thank you from me.
......................
In life there are two things I believe is important.
All your power and strength come from these two points.
1/ Have a daily close walk with Jesus Christ.
Do all the things you normally do
but remember where your strength comes from, which is Jesus.
2/ Your Bible is where you find out about God/Jesus/Holy Spirit.
God uses your Bible to direct you.
The better you know your Bible, I think you are better to cope with
life.

If you are battling a problem, the one person
who can help you is Jesus Christ.
You might being told that you need a person to help you
to sort out your problem.
That is completely wrong.
.......
Stop fighting your self, trying to fix the problem
Rest in Jesus Christ.
Give your problem to him
He will surprise you as he has been doing for me.
He fixes your problem in the most unexpected way.
Jesus will help you
I guarantee it.

This confession that can help thousands
of Christians who are battling a problem.
If you are battling a problem you are not alone.
I am battling daily in my life.
You can also be battling.
God knows you are battling a problem.
He will help you.
Often a Christian can have a problem that is with God and him/her
That means God will deal with you because God is real
He wants you to repent, if you do, then he will
find a way to help you overcome what ever the problem is.
Take heart and praise God's word.
A loving wife caring about a husband.
A wonderful statement

As you wonder about the allegations concerning the Senior Pastor in
America
it is a good time to consider your own walk with Jesus/God
Millions of Christians have something in their lives they need to
repent.
But they do not.
You do not
I do not
If you/I do not, then God can and often does
bring you/I into line.
This is particularly true if he wants you to do a job.
He wants you to sort out the problem first,
then he will let you do the job he wants you to do.
Through my own experience I know what I said above is true.
Stay close to Jesus Christ, he is a wonderful Saviour
He cares about you.

What stops you from obeying God is yourself.
If you feed yourself you will always fall into the same trap.
So, set up a brand new environment for yourself.
A radical change.
That is clearly: a completely different plan for yourself.
Try something you never did before.
A radical change.

Repent now/ that is tell God you are sorry/ God has listened to you.

If you tried to fix a problem with a person and after 13 years he/she
still had the problem.
What would you do?
You would probably give up and tell that person you cannot support
him/her any longer.
That is not God.
God's patience is way longer then us.
Note, God spent 1000 years asking the nation Israel to change its habits
and obey God.
The lesson is that your life which is usually less then 100 years you
can see God can be patient
to you for 100 years.
Unless he wants you to get a job done, now, but you are not obeying
God's voice,
then maybe he will pick a time shorter, to bring you into line.
If you keep disobeying God, he will eventually bring you into line.
There is a reason he wants you to do the job he has given you.
So
obey God's voice, even if you have spent 13 years of disobeying.
Repent now/ that is tell God you are sorry/ God has listened to you.
So now/ run your life/ God will help you

How long will it be before you listen to God.
He has dealt with you, for years trying to get you to toe the line.
He has told you/me to obey his voice.
I will obey.

Have you understood the significance of yesterdays statement that you
asked God to EMPOWER you.
He has answered your call.
All you have to do your calling is do it.
Well!
Do it!
The improbable, the unexpected will happen to you/me
10-08-006
Let me ask you this question.
Do you have a job to do and every thing is ready?
But you cannot get the job done.
Circumstances and yourself is stopping you.
If that is you or me, there is only one answer to the problem,
because our enemy wants you not to get the job done.
God wants you to do it so it makes sense your enemy is trying to destroy
your work and you.
Luke 11 talks about how to pray to your Father.
All you need to do is seek, ask, knock.
Jesus said, `If you ask you will receive your request
because God wants to give you the good things you ask for.
The good things for you or me is that you have a job to do, that God has
organized for you.
Ask him and he will EMPOWER you or me.
God's authorization is all you need. He (God) has said, `Do it!'
'Do it!'. Simply 'Do it!'
God has prepared the way for you or me. He will make the road straight
so the obstacles will be demolished.
Ok.
Head down.
Work hard and be determined.

It is important for you to not waste anytime in your life.
As you live your daily lives you cannot redeem time.
Your life is not finite on this planet. Each day you are closer to the
end plan. The end plan is when you find your health is fading and you
are fading out.
So , be determined to use every minute of the day.
Easy to say, but not easy to do.
You must. I must.
You will have regrets if you do not.
Train yourself, to use time efficiently.
You can be trained to not waste anytime in your life.

As a Christian , if God is bothering with you trying to get you to toe
the line, be happy.
God has a job for you to do. He decided you have to get something done
in your life that he considers not appropriate and wants it gone.
You know what that something is.
You will not get rest until it is fixed.
If you never sought it out, as a Christian you will still be a child of
God,
but you will not enjoy an overflowing life in your life and you will not
accomplish your complete destiny.
The choice is yours.
It would be a tragedy if you find yourself saying, "I wish I could have
sorted out this problem,
but I did not"
So let you and me toe the line.
We are dealing with "The might one. God the Lord." Psalm 50 v1

Now run with determination to get your dreams accomplished or habits in
line.
Try not to spoil this second year.

You and I will be able to do God's work finally.
Great news.

We all have a journey before God. I definitely do.
Think about this:
God has given you a promise.
Go has trained you.
Go has given you a work to do.
God has given you what you need, resources.
He has done all this for you and me in spite of yourself/myself.
So, he has got ready, but you cannot run for some reason.
A blockage.
God has wanted you to do something, but you have not. A pre-requisite.
Wellll....you know what the problem is. I know mine, so you know yours.
Put it before God again, even if it is the millionth time.
Confess the problem.
Try something new to overcome the problem.
Now
Look forward, forget the failing.
Now Runnnn.
Do not stop.
Runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. Oh boy, Runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
That is better.

Probably the greatest miracle is that even though you are 1 person
amongst millions and millions of Christians
to God you are important and he has a personal relationship with you.
Do you sense that one to one relationship?
The Holy Spirit is a stream running in every Christian that connects us
with each other and God.
So it is true God lives in us and he talks with us.
If you feel that God is away from for some reason, come before God,
spend time with him and his word.
God has promised, every one who seeks, talks, knocks will be answered,
unless you are deliberately disobeying God.
If that is you he probably will stay away from you till you repent and
ask forgiveness.
God wants you to have a close relationship with you.
You can have it

God
said to the Israelites, if you do not obey me you will chase shadows.
If you or I do not obey God you and I will also be chasing shadows.
Are you as stubborn as I am.
God has told me for 14 years to do things, but I still do not listen
seriously.
Think about this
Too late
Procrastination is a terrible curse because one day it will be TOOoo
late.
TOOoo late is when your health fails or you are in the box dead. Then
you cannot do God's work
SOoo resolve once again to find a way to overcome the problem that is
stopping you do God's work.
I guarantee you, if you or I do not obey God's voice you and I will
never be able to do what God wants you to do.
That is a pity.
This is the 10th day the 6th month of 2006 my time Australia Eastern
time 2 am. Early boy.
Now, you and I have asked God to forgive our mistake by not obeying.
Do you and I mean it when you or I say we/I will obey.
A fresh start is great.
Read below note 08-06-006.
Now get to work
Runnnn. Runnn. Runn. Now keep your head down and
Runnnnnnnnnnnnnnn your race.
You will be happy if you do.
I will be happy if I do.

I have only made this note because some of you,
and that could be you are on the same journey even though
circumstances will be different.
God wants you to do a job but you cannot break through to get it
done.
God has a prerequisite for you that you cannot meet, or do.
Remember.
God has told you to do certain things. But you know that your journey is
by faith not works. Yet God has been placing his hand on you.
The fact that God is telling you to do something that other people do
not need to do, means he has a special job for you.
God has singled you out to do a special job.
You know what it is. It is between God and you.
In the same way it is between God and me.
Start fresh right now before God. Place your 100% self before him. Leave
everything to God/Jesus/Holy Spirit. You, me simply get to work and do
what He (God) wants you to do.
Do not look back . Do not look back
Right now look forward and victory will be yours in the power
of God.
Get to work. Get to work.
It is a miracle that with the millions of his people on this planet,
he has singled you out.
Get to work. Get to work.
Be strong in the power of God.

I know a person who has been balancing with God.
God has given him wonderful promises. God has also asked him to obey
God's voice. God has told him to do 2 things in his life. For 15 years
he has been talking to this person.
I have asked this person to remember, God is a gracious God. He cares about you.
But he must obey God.
Is this is you?
Is this person you?

Remember, God is a gracious God. He cares about you.
What ever your failings, what ever your stubbornness,
he has been sticking by you,
waiting for you to toe the line,
waiting you to do his will.
Find a way to overcome yourself, that part of you that is stopping you
for doing God's will for you.
If you succeed overcoming yourself in God's power you will be the
happiest person in the world,
because you are doing what God wants you to do.

How are things going?
Is your relationship with Jesus stronger now then it was a few weeks
ago?
Have you managed to spent a part of your day with him?
If you have, then you
would be the same as I am. The Lord is a wonderful Lord a loving
father. The better to get him the better your relationship is with him.
That makes sense because the same as a son and daughter to spend time
with your father really builds a great relationship. A great
relationship means you can share
in confidence each other.
That means Jesus has his ear towards you when you talk to him and he
listens and he (Jesus) said that if you seek you will find. Ask
you will receive and if you knock he (God) will open. Jesus added by
saying every person who Seeks, asks and knocks will receive. A wonderful
promise.
A reality

I
am going to ask you this question. God/Jesus/Holy Spirit has a job for
you to do?
But you cannot get it done for some reason.
Could the reason be, that God/Jesus/Holy Spirit has asked you to do
something in your life first. A pre-requisite.
But that pre-requisite you also cannot get it done, whatever it is.
Do not be fooled.
If you do not get that pre-requisite done your Christian work is
seriously injured. You will be doing what you think is God's will, you
are doing Christian work,. but you are not doing the first choice that
God wants you to do that has 100% blessing.
If this is you, you will know what I am talking about, because it is
personal, God is dealing with you. He has his finger on you.
What a privilege, God is thinking about you.
Praise God for it and set about getting the pre-requisite done.
You will find that if you break through, nothing is impossible for you.

About
4 people have died in the last few months in my district.
They were not Christians or they may have thought they were Christian.
Our Media Baron died Boxing Day 2005 and Senior Packer (said after he
recovered from a heart attack, had died and was brought back, there
was nothing there when you die)
and was buried.
For the family there is no hope for a person when a person dies.
You have ask the question, Why did Jesus Christ come into the world? We
are told in Matthew chapter 1 Jesus came to save his people from their
sins. Why did he do that? Why did he die for us?
Clearly as Christians we are told in our Bibles we had to have our sins
forgiven so that we would be accepted into God's family and we told that
when we come to Jesus and have our sins forgiven we have eternal life.
There are dozens of sections in our Bible that tells us when we die we
are not dead at all.
If you like the Bible was given to us so that we could see what God has
planned. We are in his plan.
If you spend time in the New Testament you will come to the conclusion,
that as we get old, as we die, we are with God/Jesus.

The first comment in the new year.
I know, and other Christians know that God is a reality.
I know God exists because he is dealing with me. The fight between the
Spirit/ new man is against the old man/flesh.
God wants me and for you, he wants you to do things. Things that God
wants you to do, but the old man is going to stop me, or you.
Should you fight. I mean, should I/you fight, use my flesh to fight,
help God
If I/you try to fight I/you will lose the fight.
I believe that even if I tell God that I/flesh will fight and help God
in his battle I/you will fail. Sometimes I/You will succeed but in the
long run I/you will fall somewhere on the journey.
What God wants, I believe, is that God wants I/you to give up
my/your life. That leaves no flesh left to fight because I/you have
given it all to God.
So that means in a sense I/you simply give up the battle,
surrender I/your whole battle into God's hand. He will fight for you, he
will be I/your rock, he will be I/your refuge and I/your fortress.
That leaves I/you to cling to God, look to him.
I think that is the way.
Completely give my life to God, leave things to him and I/you simply get
to work and do the things that God has given you/me to do.

Now God is putting pressure on me.
You might think I am insane but as you look at my journey before God
(You cannot see my journey because only God and myself know what is
happening) that I am deluded myself.
The answer is know I am not insane or deluded. God has a job for me. God
has been training me and he is teaching me to obey his voice.
I will listen to God.
The fact that God is bothering me and not giving me the boot means he
has serious work for me. I thank you for that lord.

3 months, what has changed?
The Lord has been dealing with me every day. I have not slipped in my
area of spending time with Jesus. If any thing I spend more time
with Jesus and his word. Usually I get up about 2 am and spend about
90 minutes to 120 minutes each day. This time has become precious to me.
I hope you are finding that true for yourself.
God has never let you down. If you are going through a barren time you
are the source of the problem.
If that is you come before God and ask him for a fresh start. He will
wipe out your mistakes and give you are clean slate.

Time is flying. The Lord is still dealing with me in a real way.
The Lord pre-empts. He tells me what I am going to do before I do it.
I wonder if you understand what I am saying?
I guess that is why God did, through Moses and Joshua, as an example
tell the people what they would do in the future. The blessing and the
curses.

Have you thought about the fact that you can do what ever you want to
do.
Eliphaz in Job is right in saying your fear of God is your
confidence. That is...you do not do what you want to do
because you have a healthy appreciation that God exists.
That is what this Christian section is all about. You know God exists. A
true reality and one day you will meet Jesus, you will be with all other
people who love their God, your God, my God.Have you
thought about the fact that you can do what ever you want to do and you
can destroy your Christian walk/work. I would say, it is easier to
destroy your Chrisitan walk/work then to stay true to your calling.
Repeat. That is what this Christian section is all about.
You know God exists. A true reality and one day you will meet Jesus, you
will be with all other people who love their God, your God, my God. Repeat.
To stay true to your calling/ walk/ work you need to keep reminding
yourself who you are and what you are trying to do.
That is what this Christian section is all about.
From a fellow Christian Hendrik

In Job, Eliphaz said to Job, your confidence exists, you fear God, Does
not your integrity really supports that fact, that God is real to you.
It is a real fact that we have a healthy respect of God/Jesus
Christ/Holy Spirit.
A fear of God that most of the world citizens do not have.
But as a Christian you have it.
It is like Hebrews 11:1-3. The fact that we have Faith in God is the
assurance that what we believe is real.
Our faith...our faith in God is the proof that we belong to God and what
God tells us will happen.
Spend as much time as you can with Jesus and his word so that
you get to know God/Jesus Christ/Holy Spirit better and
better.

It is 1 am, so I decided to talk to you who visit my site regularly.
Have you managed to slot in your time with Jesus regularly.
I believe the most important decision you can make is to realize that
God/Jesus/Holy Spirit is your personal teacher. He leads you and he
prepares you for work. God's work.
Certainly you go to your Church, you attend weekly and often you do
other things for the church. That is great.
Do that, and also develop your relationship with your God, you will be a

This morning I had one of those times where God was talking in a real
way to me. And I will add, God was talking to me through his word. You
will note that I always suggest to you spend time with Jesus and get to
know his word better and better.
As my practice I am not going to quote text. As I pen these words and as
you read I hope you are saying, `Yes I recognize these words or ideas.'
As Jeremiah stated, `God, you know me, remember me and visit me.'
That is true for you and me. God does know you, but you definitely want
God to remember you and come and visit. Often visits can be in your
church, it can be insights which come to you. God often visits, but
often we may not recognize God's calling card.
God visits then he is gone, and often we can be hardened so that we do
not appreciate that God has come to you.

If you are similar to me, and God wants you to do a particular
job, then you will be attacked from your enemy. The enemy can be
yourself. Something that you have to put right or do. It could be that
the enemy could be a person or persons.
You can be sure, you will be attacked.
The effort will be made to destroy your Christian work.
So. be strong and stay close to Jesus Christ.
To be strong you need to grow stronger and stronger each day.

Well, how was your week?
Did you manage to accomplish your goals with the God you and I serve.
The younger you are you feel that you have plenty of time, so you can do
things tomorrow.
I would suggest to you strongly, find the key that motivates you to
act.
Now!
I know and you know
the decision is yours alone.
A statement made by William D. Mounce in his book Basics
of Biblical Greek, Zondervan Publishing House, Michigan, 1993.
I think is important.
He is talking about Greek studies, but the
application of this edited statement for other uses is obvious.
Look for the key. Now!

I decided to spend my time with my Lord to talk to you about absolute
16-5-005
Last night, Sunday night I was at a Growth Group (Or Bible Study), 14
people came. It was interesting to talk about how God wants you to walk
with him.
So before Sunday 22nd, lets have a talk about it.

The interesting question would have to be: What does God require you to
do or not to do when the Bible does not really tell you?
Some people say that if the Bible does not tell you, then you are in the
clear, you can do it.
Is that true?
Is it possible that your relationship can be so close that he is talking
to you personally. We know the Holy Spirit is living in you. He does teach
us, and he guides us.
My experience is such that God does talk to you personally. The
big problem is, will you listen to him.
He could be dealing you with simple things such as,
TV watching. If God gives you insight
concerning it, are you willing to listen. I would say from experience,
you will not listen to him, probably.
In a sexuality area. Do you listen to his voice? Once again the chances
are you will not listen.
In drinking alcohol, in area of smoking, in gambling, the list can go on
and on.
Do you listen to his voice? Once again the chances are you will
not listen
I have only mentioned a few items but you know your own circumstances
and God can be dealing with you in a way that I cannot even imagine, or
know.
Please note I am talking to you as a Christian.
For me, I find that in spite of being a Christian who loves his God I
never ever truly listen to God because he is dealing with one of my
weaknesses that I like to be part of my make-up. So I keep it and I hold
onto it.
That is me.
It is almost scary to say, the chances
are I will not listen to God, ever, ever, ever ever, because I want to
keep that part of my being. I rationalize it being ok.
It is almost as though my own site is a testimony
against myself. Insight after insight God has given to me.
Today: 15th May 2005 and 8am I am saying that I am going to listen to
God's voice.
But, will I really listen. My history shows I have
not in the past and that means the chances of me obeying is slim.
Well! I am going to listen today to God's voice.
The reason I feel I must, is because I believe God will not use me fully,
100% until I obey.
If I do not obey God he will use me. but I may be a crippled Christian
running at 50%.
Why would I do that. I know I will meet Jesus Christ in a place
he promised.
What about you?
Is God dealing with you?
A quote from an Email,
Through tattered clothes, small vices do
appear. Robes and furred gowns hide all.,
I would be happy for you to send me an Email on this subject.
Talk to me and let us have a talk on this page.

I want to share with you my time with my Lord and Savior.
Would you agree with me, that it is possible that for some reason your
make up is such that you do not capture insights from Jesus (as you read
your Bible). I have been a Christian for 46 years. I walked down the
isle in Sydney where Billy Graham had a group of about 30,000. I was 11
and walked the isle. I still remember that moment. That moment is what I
mean by insights. I suddenly realized who Jesus was at that moment and I
was propelled to act.
Here we have his disciples in a boat.
Have a read in Mark 6

An amazing scene. The disciples were |

My hope is that as you appreciate situations in your Bible that offer
you insights.
You and I are servants of a living God, who can see, who
hears and will respond.
Insights are nuggets of gold. Do not lose them.
Hendrik
I do love my Lord.

You have no excuse as a Christian to be lazy, or can we say, as a
Christian you must grow. We call it Christian growth.
Look at Maria Sharapova in her determination
as a tennis player.

Can God ever be gone?
It is 9:45 am 27th Thursday.
On Sunday 1st April I am going to talk about the day you go to a cemetery and
you are the person who is the subject.
You die.
I was at a funeral yesterday in my town Deepwater and a relative of mine
died. In his will he stated how he wanted to be buried. God was not
mentioned, once. God was
totally gone as far as my relative was concerned.
This situation makes me angry. But I know that is life.
Anyway, let's talk on Sunday.
Here it is...DEATH

I have been looking at Psalm 30.
This is a good Psalm to think about when you have done the wrong thing
as far as failing God.
You can think about David, who committed adultery and had her husband
killed. I am sure you know the story. If you do not, you don't know your
Bible well enough.
In this Psalm you are told If you disobey God his anger is only for a
night. The reason for that is because God has saved you and God is
looking at your entire life. You have God's favor.
So you can weep and cry while you repent and ask your sins to be
forgiven before God. He will forgive you and you will be happy again in
the morning.
We all fail God sometimes. Often our sins can be serious, but if we understand
the seriousness of our sin and come before God he will not strike you
dead because what is the point in God doing that, because when you die
you will no longer be able to tell people about God's goodness to
you.
A great Psalm 30 to remember.

At the moment I am running with 3 approaches in my Bible
study. On odd days I work in New Testament. Even days Old Testament and during
the day I do a little of Proverbs.
Right now while I am penning this item
I am looking at Mark 5 1-20. It struck me that this example about the man who
had an unclean spirit who lived in the tombs. He said he was many and his name
was legion, the demons were then cast out of the man and the swine about 2000
ran into the sea. .
The same example in Matthew 8:28 plus has two men in what is obviously the same
situation.
So the same situation. Matthew two people. Mark one person.
We are told that there are no mistakes in the Bible because it is inspired.
What do you think about this situation?
Is it possible that those who claim that every word is true and every situation
depicted is correct, that there may be a misunderstanding of what inspired
really mean.
Something to think about.

Because I went to what some people call Growth Christian Group, or in the olden days it was simply called a Bible Study Group last night ( The last, Bible Study Group sounds dated, but a Growth Christian Group, sounds hip.) I did not get up early, as my custom to spend time with my Lord.
The last few sessions we have been looking at texts that tell
us it is written. After his baptism, when he was tempted in the
wilderness, Jesus made statements to answer Satan by saying `A person is not to
live by bread alone but by the word of God. Jesus also made a statement just
before he was arrested, `But how can Scripture be fulfilled', if this
arrest of Jesus and his trial and death and then the resurrection did not
happen. It did happen and we are all blessed because of it.
God has given the world and Christians promises. The reason we now that God
will fulfill his promises, is because we are told in the Bible it is written,
God does not lie and therefore the promises he gives us will happen.
Next time

I am only interested in making a note while I spend time with
my Saviour, Jesus Christ.
For the last couple of weeks I have been looking at Proverbs ch 1 and 2
I notice that if I want wisdom and understanding, discernment I need to
understand that reverence of God is the beginning of wisdom and I am to treat my
wanting it, to seek it like looking for silver and searching for
hidden treasure.
Note, if I do that, I will understand (comprehend) the fear (reverence) of
God and find the knowledge of God (ch 2:5).
That is a fabulous statement
What does it really mean for me to truly understand the reverence of God?
