Keep your eyes on Jesus

Posted on May 17, 2013 by Dewey Moede

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Brothers and Sisters, you are FREE in our LORD! AMEN! What is holding you back?I pray for complete release of any bondage you have in your life! AMEN! May you realize and live in the favor of God! Complete living in the Kingdom! I’M ALMOST THERE MYSELF!

What is bondage?

Bondage implies slavery or slavish thinking. A cursory reading of these passages might lead you to assume, as many do, that Paul considered commandment keeping to be bondage.
Bondage truly does relate to slavery. Thayer’s Greek Lexicon defines douleia, the word translatedbondage, as “to make a slave of” or metaphorically to “make myself a bondman.” But is keeping God’s commandments slavery? Is this the bondage to which Paul was referring?
As we determine the answers to these questions, we must be wise and discerning students of God’s Word, “rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). We must remember that the Bible interprets itself. When properly understood, no part of it contradicts any other part. Christ stated in John 10:35, “The Scripture cannot be broken.”
The Galatian congregation included people from varied backgrounds, including some who formerly observed pagan gentile faiths and some who formerly observed the Old Testament statutes as if they were the way to salvation. Both groups had spiritual baggage—spiritual misunderstandings—to shed. This is borne out by a careful reading of the entire book, as well as the historical background provided by commentaries.

Elements of the world

Writing to this diverse group, Paul spoke of everyone being “in bondage under the elements of the world” (Galatians 4:3) until God delivers us from those enslaving thoughts and actions through Christ’s sacrifice for our sins. Is it accurate to interpret “elements of the world” to mean the law of God?
No! Paul never referred to the commandments as “elements of the world.” Nor did God inspire any other writer of Scripture to refer to His laws in this way. Said another way, nowhere does the Bible call God’s law, or the laws God gave through Moses, “worldly.”
Instead, biblical references to “the world” mean the system governed and influenced by Satan. We need look no further than within this same letter to see what Paul meant: “But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world” (Galatians 6:14).

What made me even grow closer to the Lord yesterday was this:

Thank you all for your love and prayers. We are thanking the Lord that Sharon’s retnia is not torn it is the Vitreal that is torn, it pulled on the retnia when it tore Wednesday and caused the episode. We have to keep an eye on it and go for check ups now and then. We believe the Lord will heal this! AMEN! PTL! Thank you all for your love and prayers! Please pray for me, as I leave this morning for Longmont, Colorado for Ron Bernard’s funeral. Sharon will be staying home with Buffy and Reno! We sure do love you all in the name of Jesus!

As I sat in the waiting room as they examined Sharon’s eye, twice yesterday, the Lord gave me a great calmness, He told me NO SURGERY for Sharon! I almost fell asleep in the waiting room! Sharon did not want me in the room for the second examination, get a load of this, she says sometimes I TALK TOO MUCH! LOL LOL, The Truth is told!!!!!

As I sat there in the waiting area yesterday, so many people with eye problems. I thought of the eye’s, how vulnerable they are, how vulnerable we all are. Life to me is all about my relationship with God Sharon, kid’s, doggies, friends and the work assigned me by Lord Jesus Christ. Bondage holds us all back in our growth in our Lord. You know what you are tied to that is not Godly, you try to fit it into your Christian life, but does it?

A very wise friend years ago told me if you want a reality check on life, visit a nursing home, hospital, funeral home. yesterday was one of those days.

Then this morning my buddy David Waterman posted this:

David Waterman

Sat in the ER all afternoon at UNMH. Wishing I could take the pain hurt and discomfort my wife has had to go through. Would gladly carry it for her if I could so she wouldn’t know such hurt anymore. I watched nurses and staff there struggle to care for a flood of patients. Nurses have to be made of special stuff as they deal with all the wounded, frustrated, angry and sometimes very uncooperative patients. I have never been to an ER that did not renew my intense hatred for drug dealing, drunk driving, and all the other very selfish things done for pure selfishness that spreads such suffering in the world. Patti needs to rest more and she will take time to heal. But for those who lost loved ones or are permanently disabled due to drunk driving or DUI accidents there is often no healing. Can’t bring back the dead. We need to be as involved and indignant at drunk driving as we are at a school shooting. Because the carnage on our streets and roads goes on and on and on……

Well said my friend!

I have had enought of all the bad news this week…….click here for a great story about working hard and being nice, IT STILL PAYS OFF: http://www.fggam.org/hard-work-and-being-nice-still-counts-in-more-ways-than-one/

From time to time we have talked about the Favor of God.It is avaible to all! For example I tell my friend Grace, she has the favor of God and keep walking in it, don’t turn to the right or the left, keep walking in the favor of God. Do not be distracted by the “NOTHING NOISE of the World. Oh my, yesterday a lot of “NOTHING NOISE” was thrown at me and Sharon, but we kept focused on the eye’s of Jesus Christ and His way.

Please read this on the favor of God then comeback and read this other posting below.
click here: http://www.fggam.org/defining-the-favor-of-god/

This is one of my favorite devotionals on the Favor of God. The Favor of God is misunderstood by many, it is not magic, it is of God. This was written by the late David Wilkerson.

By David Wilkerson
May 10, 1993
__________

The book of Haggai is a marvelous lesson on how to get and keep the blessing and favor of the Lord. In utter simplicity the prophet Haggai outlines how God’s children can live and walk under God’s continual blessing and favor.
Yet Haggai also shows the causes and reasons why people lose God’s blessing – and what they must do to come back into His favor! This is true for nations, families, individuals.
The wonderful truth is, God blesses those who walk in faithfulness – He shows favor to those who favor Him. I don’t know about you, but I love to be around people who have the favor of God! There is something of the exuberance of Christ about them. And they have a settled peace. You don’t have to worry from one day to the next whether they’re up or down, because there is a steadiness about their walk with God.
One of the greatest sorrows a pastor has to bear, however, is to witness the awful changes that take place in Christians who go sour. These are believers who at one time were on fire for God, dedicated and zealous for His work. They were happy, blessed, growing in faith, maturing spiritually.
Then one day you began to sense that something had gone wrong. A frown had replaced their smile. Suddenly they’d stopped growing. Spiritual decay had set in!
This happens to married couples! Perhaps it is true of your marriage. Only a year or so ago, you both seemed so happy. There was a spark in your eyes, and you were sweethearts. Everywhere you turned God was blessing you. People around you thought nothing could ever come between you. You both enjoyed the fullness of God’s favor.
But now something is wrong. In a matter of just months, you both are walking in sorrow! You can’t agree on anything – there is constant misunderstanding between you. Your love for each other and for God’s work is waning. His blessing and favor on your marriage has been withdrawn!
This also happens to individual Christians! I have been greatly blessed by the faithfulness and zeal of many individual Christians, many of whom are single. They’re so full of joy, excited about the Word of God, always putting the Lord’s work first, When I see them I say to myself, “There goes one who will never quit and never grow stale. He [or she] is determined to go all the way with the Lord!”
Yet, sadly, some of these zealous believers begin to change. They start missing meetings, whereas they used to come to every service. And a sad, dour look has swept over their countenance, The blessing of God is no longer there – you can almost see it draining out of them!
Now when I see them, I wonder, “Lord – what happened? How could they just drift away? How did such coldness get into their spirit? How could they forget the secret of having Your blessing and favor upon them?”
The same thing happens to nations! From the day God commanded His blessings upon Israel, down to modern-day America – nations that once lived under bountiful goodness soon forget God! They forget why He blessed them – and they become His enemies, going from favor to awful judgments!
No nation was ever so blessed as Israel. God told them, “I picked you out of all the peoples of the nations – and I carried you in My arms! I found you, bathed and clothed you. But then you turned sour on Me! You turned against Me, committing spiritual adultery!”
Like Israel, America has lost God’s blessing and favor! At one time this nation was greatly blessed. Our forefathers were, for the most part, godly men. And up to just a few years ago, America blessed the whole world as the number-one lender nation. Not anymore! We are now the number-one debtor nation, owing more money than the rest of the world combined! We’re so deep in debt we’ll never get out!
What has happened to America? It has lost its soul, its blessing, its favor with God! No longer are we one nation under Him – because He has turned us over to our sins. We have become godless – and now we are under His divine discipline!
How do nations, families, individuals lose the blessing and favor of God? What causes this fall into ruin and shame? Haggai lists three reasons for this:

Please pray for Sharon

Posted on May 16, 2013 by Dewey Moede

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

This morning we are off to an appointment with an eye specialist for Sharon. One of her eye’s is having a episode where it is leaking fluid and the eye is not clear. We are told it may be a torn retina. Please pray for complete healing. This all suddenly started late yesterday afternoon at work. God Bless you all.

In the meantime please enjoy this writing from Barbara Gould of Emmanuel Ministries International and also a Board Member of FGGAM.

A Call to Effective Prayer

In these days of the end-times, God has poured the Spirit of prayer upon His Church. I believe it was Charles Finney who once said that it seems that God will do nothing unless His people pray.
In 2 Chronicles 7:14, the Holy Spirit tells us: “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 will I hear from heaven, and forgive their sins and heal their land.”
The Call To Prayer is a call for God’s people to take responsibility, not just for ourselves, not just for our “church” or the Body of Christ at large, but for our cities, states, nation, and the world. Now, more than ever, we must heed the call of God to pray, but before we can be truly effective in our praying there are prerequisites — essential things we must understand before we can be effective.
PREREQUISITE #1: WE MUST KNOW WHO GOD IS
Numbers 23:19 says: “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good?”
Jehovah God is the one true and living God. There is no other God above Him. He is the God of Integrity. To say it a better way: He is Integrity. His Word never changes. What He has promised, He will surely do. His Word is forever settled. We can bank on it.
He is the unchanging God. God declares, “I am the Lord, I do not change” (Malachi 3:6). He reaffirms this in the New Covenant through His Son in Hebrews 13:8 when the Holy Spirit says, “Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever.” He is the unchanging God!
He answers prayers. He has a track record of answering prayers. In Jeremiah 33:3 (Amplified) God encourages His people to pray. He says, “Call unto Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things, fenced in and hidden, which you do not know (do not distinguish and recognize, have knowledge of and understand).” Then in John 16:23 (Amplified) Jesus tells us that “whatever we ask the Father in His [Jesus'] Name, He [the Father] will give it to you.”
There is so much more about who our God is, but for the subject of prayer these scriptures give us insight to the God and Father who we serve and helps to build our confidence to believe that when we pray, He is willing and ready to hear and grant us our requests, if we pray according to His will. We must keep in mind that His Word is His will. The Holy Spirit settles the issue of God’s integrity, love, goodness, faithfulness and mercy when He says:
“And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him:
[we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His plan), He listens to and hears us,
“And if (since) we [positively] know that He listens to us in whatever we ask, we also know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted us as our present possessions] the requests made of Him” (1 John 5:13-14 Amplified).
So knowing who our Father, God is, and knowing our responsibility as God’s children, that is, to pray according to His will, let us “Come boldly (with confidence) before the throne of grace, where we shall obtain mercy and find grace to help in the time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)
We are in a time of great need, but our God is greater. Let’s trust Him to deliver us — to deliver this nation.
In my next writing, we will talk about the second prerequisite to effective prayers which is KNOWING WHO WE ARE.

Thank you Barbara, God Bless you!

Do you have the joy of the Lord? Do you hear the Lord speak to you?

Posted on May 15, 2013 by Dewey Moede

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ!

We continue to share on the JOY OF THE LORD! AMEN!

Herb, one of our players on Amistad Christian Church softball team doctored this photo of me after we won the doubleheader Monday night! The guys were so excited!

philippians 4:4

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.

I thought you all would get a lot of Joy out of this picture!!!!!

Sharon made another presentation yesterday! She has more speaking engagements than me!!!
Teamwork and acceptance! Have you ever felt left out? Ignored? Out of place? Not appreciated?
Click on this video and be inspired!

Yesterday was a heavy day of counseling. I still have phone calls to return. Sharon and I were able to do something we rarely get to do yesterday, go to lunch together! We had pizza! While we were eating and a young man came into the pizza place holding a folder, he is looking for a job. I love to see a person so eager to find a job and doing it in a professional manner. They told him to fill out an application. As he was walking out I grabbed him and talked to him about how it is inspiring to see a person so eager and professionally present themselves as someone who can do a good job for a business. I told him God sent me to talk to you and let you know the job is coming soon. Listen to God. He did not back away from me. He stated he had some skeletons in his closet, i said we all do, God knows all, God is going to provide you with a good job. When we have a personal relationship with God he will send us to people, like He told me to get up and go talk to this young man and give Him my message of confidence. God gives us the ways and the words to speak to people. Not our Words but God’s. I can tell you this also that God let’s me know when my words start to go off track as to what he wants me to say. He disrupts my spirit to let me know!

The other day in the mail my Sister Deb, mailed me my Mom’s Confirmation book from 1941. I opened it to page 1. In her hand writing is this: The way to salvation. Then, In the Name of Jesus Christ:
It is God’s Will that all men be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. I Tim 2:4

The purpose of this course is to acquaint every student with God’s way of salvation so that he might walk in it.

AMEN! The purpose of all our being is to help bring people to our Lord Jesus Christ.

I will stress to the day I die here on earth, we all must have a personal relationship with HIM.

You will hear HIM, when you do.

He will move you, stop you, tell you what to do and say.

Email me with any questions.

Here is one question I was emailed yesterday………..

I would love your wisdom in how I can simply place my life in His hands and allow Him to take over and make my crooked places straight. I know we must all face challenges. I want to learn to face them with faith first, and rest in the gratitude and knowledge that no matter what, God is in charge and all will be well.

In John 18:37 Jesus says, Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.

You do know the truth, so push all falsehood to the side and focus on what you know as the Gospel truth. Lean entirely on God’s Word.

The Word of God protects us from deception. The Word of God is the bread of life. When you open your Bible today, God will speak to you through His Word and give you what you need for this day and days to come.

It is so wonderful to go to God with all of our concerns and get His answer.

God’s Love and Peace always, Dewey

The person who fears God has nothing to hide. In fact, he or she is scared to be away from God.

God’s Grace

There once was a man named George Thomas, pastor in a small New England town. One Easter Sunday morning he came to the Church carrying a rusty, bent,

Old bird cage, and set it by the pulpit. Eyebrows were raised and, as if in response, Pastor Thomas began to speak. . .

“I was walking through town yesterday when I saw a young boy coming toward me swinging this bird cage. On the bottom of the cage were three little wild birds, shivering with cold and fright.

I stopped the lad and asked, “What do you have there, son?”

“Just some old birds,” came the reply.

“What are you going to do with them?” I asked.

“Take ‘em home and have fun with ‘em,” he answered. “I’m gonna tease ‘em and pull out their feathers to make ‘em fight. I’m gonna have a real good time.”

“But you’ll get tired of those birds sooner or later. What will you do then?”

“Oh, I got some cats,” said the little boy. “They like birds. I’ll take ‘em to them.”
The pastor was silent for a moment. “How much do you want for those birds, son?”

“Huh?? !!! Why, you don’t want them birds, mister.They’re just plain old field birds. They don’t sing. They ain’t even pretty!”

“How much?” the pastor asked again.

The boy sized up the pastor as if he were crazy and said, “$10?”

The pastor reached in his pocket and took out a ten dollar bill. He placed it in the boy’s hand. In a flash, the boy was gone. The pastor picked up the cage and gently carried it to the end of the alley where there was a tree and a grassy spot. Setting the cage down, he opened the door, and bysoftly tapping the bars persuaded the birds out, setting them free. Well, that explained the empty bird cage on the pulpit, And then the pastor began to tell this story:

One day Satan and Jesus were having a conversation.Satan had just come from the Garden of Eden , and he was gloating and boasting. “Yes, sir, I just caught a world full of people down there. Set me a trap, used bait I knew they couldn’t resist. Got ‘em all!”

“What are you going to do with them?” Jesus asked. Satan replied, “Oh, I’m gonna have fun! I’m gonna teach them how to marry and divorce each other, how to hate and abuse each other, how to drink and smoke and curse. I’m gonna teach them how to invent guns and bombs and kill each other. I’m really gonna have fun!” “And what will you do when you are done with them?” Jesus asked.. “Oh, I’ll kill ‘em,” Satan glared proudly. “How much do you want for them?” Jesus asked. “Oh, you don’t want those people.They ain’t no good. Why, you’ll take them and they’ll just hate you. They’ll spit on you, curse you and kill you. You don’t want those people!!”

“How much? He asked again.

Satan looked at Jesus and sneered, “All your blood, tears and your life.”

Jesus said, “DONE!” Then He paid the price.

The pastor picked up the cage and walked from the pulpit.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

I thank God everyday for my life. I’m not rich, don’t live in a mansion, I am “somewhat” healthy, and don’t have the nicest of material things, but, I have a roof over my head, clothes on my back, food on my table, a family that loves me and lifelong friends to get me through. I’d say I have a lot to be thankful for.

Joy in the Lord is strength!

Posted on May 14, 2013 by Dewey Moede

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

We love you all!!!

In the mailbag!

Thanks for THE CUP today Dewey, really Blessed me my brother. God Bless and love ya! Alan

EXCELLENT CUP!

The bottom line is exactly what you said about same sex marriage. It is also the bottom line for all our behaviors. WHAT DOES GOD SAY? Especially if we claim to be Christians then we have no rights. Corinthians says that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit and we have been bought with a price. So Jesus owns us. We have no rights, privileges or special treatment. Paul says he was a SLAVE! Therefore, no rights, no opinions and no “feelings”. God’s Word is to be our only rule of faith and practice. From Genesis to Revelation the key subject is obedience.

God bless,

praying for you

Pastor Leonard Navarre

Leonard was referring to this post I did yesterday that is still getting read today and was the subject of our radio program yesterday on KDAZ, The World we Live in, lots of comments ……..please read and if you already have read it, please read it again. It is on the Deception of same-sex marriage.

http://www.fggam.org/people-being-deceived-are-unaware-of-their-captivity/

Good Morning! I wanted to bring that counch home!

Great night of softball for Amistad Christian we won both games of double header, we won both games under the 10 run rule! Both games were dedicated in the memory of Ron Bernard, the Dad of our very own Dan Bernard Dan made a spectacular catch up against the fence to end the second game! It was all directed from heaven! Angels in the outfield!!! Way to go Amistad! Blessed to be your coach!

Those are the comments I posted last night on Facebook around 11pm. Fellowship! WOW! There is nothing better for the heart, soul, and mind to fellowship with other believers and also have other folks that may not have a relationship with Jesus around your gathering. Softball is just a great way for guys to give Glory to God in our relationships and how we play the game and how we use our God given abilities. Our spirits were on fire for the Lord last night as we played the games for Dan’s Dad! WOW!
Read this on fellowship……..Do you fellowship? Do you open up and have fun in our Lord? Do you “cut loose” in the joy of our Lord? Do you exercise your temple?

I found this on http://www.sermoncentral.com it was not credited to anyone.

1. Godly associates enabled one another to help develop Christianity from a handful of people to a movement of over 600 million present day believers. Mutual encouragement provided them with the necessary incentives to stay obedient, loving and committed to our Lord. They assembled together in the upper room for prayer, reflection and mutual accountability as we see in this passage. They were willing to pay any price to give their all for Jesus Christ. Ask the Lord to help you plant and grow new fellowships of people which can expand the kingdom of God out to the parts of your communities that are yet to be reached with the light of truth.

2. Godly associates fortified the apostles with one purpose, mind and priority as they waited to be clothed with power from on high. Prayer became their chief vehicle for drawing each other together in worship, confession, thanksgiving and supplication. Ask the Lord to help you commit yourself to praying together with Godly associates for the synergistic benefits of strengthening one another’s purposes, minds and priorities. Remember you do not have to share personal problems while committing yourself and your ministries to the Lord.

3. Godly associates chose to use the networks of family connections in a strategic urban center where their fellowship would have the greater influence. Acts 1:12 says, “They returned to Jerusalem.” It is a characteristic of Godly associates to seek out the places where they can have the greatest potential for qualitative and quantitative growth of the church. Ask the Lord to help you think strategically as to where you will locate your Godly fellowships for greater results.

4. Godly associates all joined together constantly in prayer along with the women and brothers. (Acts 1:14) Godly people make a habit of setting aside a time and a place where they can assemble together for prayer and worship of the Lord. Do not hesitate to bring in Godly men and women who can help you nourish one another spiritually, emotionally and socially. Avoid any hint of prejudice. The initial numbers in your fellowship is not as important as the quality of commitment in the members. Only through regular times of prayer will people be able to maintain the discipline of corporate prayer. Ask the Lord to help you select and welcome committed people who will share in prayer and worship.

5. Godly associates were willing to hold each other in spiritual accountability as a way of helping each other to avoid being sidetracked by the worries, riches, pleasures and troubles of this life. The Godly fellowship of the early Christians were prone to the same kind of temptations as we face today. However, they found amplified power, wisdom and love in their connections with one another and with the Lord. Ask the Lord to help you hold one another in spiritual account with an attitude of love and not proceduralized legalism.

6. Godly associates are able to work through the most natural lines of communication found within each family, tribe and community. The first century believers were enabled by the Spirit to establish many house fellowships around prayer that allowed the church to grow naturally. Ask the Lord to give you the wisdom, connections and love to spawn new prayer fellowships that will help people grow up into all aspects into Christ in their communities, work places and social classes.

7. Godly associates knew that every generation needs its own regeneration. Godly fellowships allowed for age group oriented groups to accomplish great things for Jesus Christ. Ask the Lord to allow you to start a small fellowship of prayer and Bible study among your own age group and peers.

8. Godly associates were led to provoke one another to love and good works. It is the duty of every believer not only to comfort the distressed, but to distress the comfortable. Trust the Lord to use your fellowship in a positive way instead of a negative judgmental way to bring out the best in every person. Godly believers are able to encourage, exhort, correct, rebuke and stir one another up for the maximizing of their contributions for Christ. Ask the Lord to allow you to be more open to the spiritual provocations of Godly associates.

9. Godly associates evoked a spiritual fire that ignited the hearts of those around them. When Christians are on fire, fellow believers are warmed and sinners are attracted to the light of Jesus. No doubt, the first century Christians’ love, warmth and excitement generated a lot of interest in what the Lord was doing in their midst. Ask the Lord to use your Godly fellowships of prayer, friendships and worship to attract many needy people to your growing group.

You will find that the Body of Christ will fuel your engines, your heart, soul and mind. If you are around people that rob you have Godly energy, rob your joy, step back and pray on that situation and seek a mentor. Do not let people rob you of your joy and strength in our Lord! AMEN!

Now, Click here and watch Dewey and Friends with Pastor Mark Scales of Heights Christian who is a big reason for the Softball teams at Heights and Amistad. He talks how important softball is to the mission of the Church. We also talk about Mark’s mission trip to Ecuador, he left yesterday.

Wise and efficient is the worker who sweeps and cleans after each work session. There is one who keeps a broom and dustpan in the work area so that at the end of each work session, they make the work place clean. Consider your work habits and opt for the good harvest. Let all be happy.

People being deceived are unaware of their captivity

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

May God be with you this day and all days!

This is left over from Mother’s Day!!!!

This morning I come to you with a heavy heart to tell you that Dan Bernard’s Dad, Ron, passed away yesterday morning on Mother’s day. There is nothing like the love between father and son. Like Dan, my Dad passed away before he was 65. I love my brother Dan, we play softball together and have become such good friends. I wrote about my classmate Lynn last week, and people are still going to the Daily Cup that I wrote about Lynn. It shows that people love, people care. One person at a time is how we love. We all are to take the time for each other. Last night I watched the movie “Courageous” again. If you have not seen that movie, please do, if you have seen it, watch it again. It seems to me that many have lost their”GUTS” in standing up for God, for doing what is right! In the movie, standing up for God is the theme! Being Courageous. It is not popular all the time, standing up for what God.
I sometimes get sad that I am not liked by some people for my Full Gospel belief, I know no other way.
I cannot imagine this Country at this time to have a President that would have to make the decision like Harry Truman did to drop the bomb to save countless lives in not having to invade Japan, because we have no leaders in Washington DC, yes we do not, I see none, okay maybe a few! We have no Lincoln’s, Trumans, or Reagans. I pray that they are coming. We have people that are in it for themselves. This theme Courageous continues throughout the CUP this morning, please drink it slowly and pray as you drink the words. Too many people want to be popular, I just want to do what God says.

Here is a picture of Dan, his wife Laurel, daughter Amber, and parents.

Let us keep the family in our prayers!

Deception: same-sex marriage

It saddens me greatly this past weekend to see an editorial in the Albuquerque Journal from a retired Minister in support of same-sex marriage.

Pastor Bert Scott wrote:……. Like many New Mexicans, I was taught that marriage was between a man and women. For years I never challenged this assumption (WOW! God’s Word is now an assumption! an Assumption!! Dangerous territory!) The Pastor continues, writing: I’ve come to believe that no one should be treated differently because of who they are or who they love.

Pastor Scott continues:

As a person of faith and a New Mexican, I believe in loving my neighbors and treating everyone as I would like to be treated—-with dignity and respect. This means recognizing the love and commitment of lesbian and gay couples through marriage.

Dewey’s Comment: We all believe in love, dignity and respect for all. The Pastor never mentions what God says about marriage, only what he believes, it does not matter what we believe or feel, what matters is what God says.

The Pastor continues: I support (There we go again with the word I support, what does God say and support?) He says he supports the freedom to marry for all loving, committed couples not in spite of my faith, but because of it.

He closes his Editorial piece with this:

We recognize that there are a variety of viewpoints in our faith communities and look forward to loving, meaningful conversations about marriage in churches and faith communities around the state.

Dewey’s comments: There is nothing to debate, either we believe God’s Word on marriage or we do not, either we are Full Gospel or not. Some are going to say, WOW! You are a mean person Dewey! No, I just stand in the gap for God on the sanctity marriage and His Word not mine. To many Pastor’s are turning this whole thing into what THEY THINK! Not what God says. They are deceived.

This whole debate on marriage is “NOTHING NOISE” I say again it doesn’t matter what I think, what matters is what God says. In the Pastor’s whole Editorial piece he does not mention God’s Word at all! He just says what HE THINKS! Not one mention of scripture or God.

There is a crises in the Church and it is WHAT WE THINK, and not WHAT GOD SAYS!

I should not have to reference what scriptures in the Bible to read on marriage.

I was taught years and years ago, right from wrong.

Standing up for what God says does not mean you are a mean person. You are trying to help people not be deceived.

Deception is a sad thing, what is even more alarming is that people being deceived is that they are unaware of their captivity. Like the prodigal they must come to themselves by awakening to their true condition. They do not realize that they are spewing out bitter waters rather than pure. When a person is deceived, he believes he is right even though he is not. This is why we must take ourselves out of this “Nothing Noise” on marriage and stand strong in God’s Word and what He says about marriage.

We must be Biblically sound in all we do and say, Full Gospel.

God is all about love, respect dignity, and forgiveness. God is God. He invented all, everything including marriage.
God has a lot to say about sin. God holds us accountable. We sin, we seek repentance, He forgives.

As Mrs. Fett said back in grade school, “Students, I should not have to repeat myself, you should know this by now!”

Same-sex marriage is not in the Word of God.

Watch the movie, Courageous, it will send you a strong message about God and His Word.

May 11, 2013. By giving, you receive. Through laying down your life, more and better life is given to you. You have found life, but now you must give it away. Such is the upside down life in the Kingdom of God. Less is often more and more can be less. With Jesus as Lord, a kingdom believer must adapt to a new way of thinking. You live in the word of God. The Holy Spirit finds it easier to teach and lead you. Once you yield, the Holy Spirit takes over.

Matthew 10:39 (NASB) “He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it.” Ras Robinson

Happy Mothers Day, A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.

Posted on May 10, 2013 by Dewey Moede

Dear family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mom’s out there! PRAISE GOD! We have some special posting’s on Mother’s Day posted at FGGAM: http://www.fggam.org/the-many-faces-of-mothers-day/
Lord Willing will may be adding a few more over the weekend. Darlene Quiring shares with us today on the CUP, on prayer and Mother’s Day.

My friend Sonja Haldeman, classmate 1974 now living in Arizona, is in Windom and took this picture of the house I grew up in Windom Minn my brother Dave and his wife Denise live in the house now My Daddy planted the tree on the right when I was born in 1956!! Thanks for sending Sonja!! She is jumping rope as she walks around Windom today!!!! Lol lol

I wept tears of joy when Sonja sent me this picture……..so, so many good memories. My Mom and Dad were such Godly parents. I am thankful this house still is in the family, you might call it our “Little House on The Prairie” We had our struggles, but we had a loving, secure family that was together. When I was working on the CUP this morning and praying what to write about Mother’s Day, the Lord showed me that is part of what drives you Dewey. I am weeping as I write this, as I wake up everyday I want to stand in the gap for children and families,the sanctity of life and marriage, which is the fabric of society and to see it being ripped apart makes me weep. My Mom and Dad worked hard for us kid’s, the four of us, me, David, Deb, and Daryl. Back home they called me the Big D! Mom and Dad never had money, they had love, love of God and family. They showed us what counts in life. So as I see society in the mess we have, and I am driven by my God to show the darkness the Kingdom of God, The Love of God, The Word of God, The Bread of Life. So many single Parents need our love and support, so many children don’t have a Mommy or Daddy need our support, many get shuffled to one parent to the next, more and more are being raised by Grandparents and Aunt and Uncles. I get teased that I grew up in Mayberry with Sheriff Andy and Deputy Barney! LOL! I know the difference in good and bad, I was taught that very early. I aim to help teach it to many the rest of my life, that is what I learned from Mom and Dad, share your wisdom of God to the World. I do know that Mother’s Day has many faces and Shona Neff writes about it at FGGAM: http://www.fggam.org/the-many-faces-of-mothers-day/

My Mom and Dad, Wally and Ruth Moede back about 22 years ago holding grandson Lars. I remember this day, clear as day, driving from Indiana where we lived at the time to Windom and Dad was waiting for us to pull up in the back yard so he could be the first to hold his grandson Lars.

Mom and Dad are both in heaven now and Lars is not so little anymore!!!!! He graduates from Columbia of Chicago, Lord Willing in Oct!

Sharon is up for an award today for her Inspirational Talk’s at Presbyterian Hospital. Please keep her in your prayers. God Bless you! I am so thankful for a Godly wife. I am so very proud of her!

Proverbs 18:22
He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD.

Proverbs 31:10-12 and 25-31
A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.
She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
“Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
Give her the reward she has earned,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate. (NIV)

Very thankful for this from our friend Bob a firefighter here in Albuquerque…….

Thanks to Darlene Quiring for sending this in: God still Answers Prayer!

A young man had been to Wednesday night Bible Study. The Pastor shared about listening to God and obeying the Lord’s voice. The young man couldn’t help but wonder, “Does God still speak to people?”
After service he went out with some friends for coffee and pie and discussed the message. Several different ones talked about how God had led them in different ways.

It was about ten o’clock when the young man started driving home. Sitting in his car, he just began to pray, “God.. If you still speak to people, speak to me. I will listen. I will do my best to obey.”
As he drove down the main street of his town, he had the strangest thought, to stop and buy a gallon of milk.
He shook his head and said “God, is that you?” He didn’t get a reply and started on home. But again, the thought, buy a gallon of milk. The young man thought about Samuel and how he didn’t recognize the voice of God, and how little Samuel ran to Eli. “Okay, God, in case that is you. I will buy the milk.” It didn’t seem like too hard a test of obedience. He could always use the milk. He stopped and purchased the gallon of milk and started off toward home. As he passed Seventh Street, he again felt the urge, turn down that street. “This is crazy”, he thought and drove on past the intersection. Again, he felt that he should turn down Seventh Street.

At the next intersection, he turned back and headed down Seventh. Half jokingly, he said out loud, “Okay, God, I will.” He drove several blocks, when suddenly, he felt like he should stop. He pulled over to the curb and looked around. He was in a semi-commercial area of town. It wasn’t the best, but it wasn’t the worst of either.
The businesses were closed and most of the houses looked dark like the people were already in bed. Again, he sensed something. “Go and give the milk to the people in the house across the street.”

The young man looked at the house. It was dark and it looked like the people were either gone or they were already asleep. He started to open the door and then sat back in the car seat. “Lord, this is insane. Those people are asleep and if I wake them up, they are going to be mad and I will look stupid.” Again he felt like he should go and give the milk.

Finally, he opened the door, “Okay God, if this is you, I will go to the door and I will give them the milk. If you want me to look like a crazy person, okay. I want to be obedient. I guess that will count for something but if they don’t answer right away, I am out of here.” He walked across the street and rang the bell, He could hear some noise inside.
A man’s voice yelled out, “Who is it? What do you want?” Then the door opened before the young man could get away. The man was standing there in his jeans and T-shirt.

He looked like he just got out of bed. He had a strange look on his face and he didn’t seem too happy to have some stranger standing on his doorstep. “What is it?” The young man thrust out the gallon of milk, “Here, I brought this to you.”
The man took the milk and rushed down a hallway speaking loudly in Spanish. Then from down the hall came a woman carrying the milk toward the kitchen.

The man was following her holding a baby. The baby was crying. The man had tears streaming down his face. The man began speaking half crying, “We were just praying. We had some big bills this month and we ran out of money. We didn’t have any milk for our baby. I was just praying and asking God to show me how to get some milk.”

His wife in the kitchen yelled out, “I ask him to send an Angel with some. Are you an Angel?” The young man reached into his wallet and pulled out all the money he had on him and put it in the man’s hand.
He turned and walked back toward his car and the tears were streaming down his face. He knew that God still answers prayers.

Darlene also sent this in for Mothers Day………..

A MOTHERS LOVE

By unknown Author

A little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was fixing supper, and handed her a piece of paper that he had been writing on. After his Mom dried her hands on an apron, she read it, and this is what it said:

For cutting the grass: $5.00
For cleaning up my room this week: $1.00
For going to the store for you: $.50
Baby-sitting my kid brother while you went shopping: $.25
Taking out the garbage: $1.00
For getting a good report card: $5.00
For cleaning up and raking the yard: $2.00
Total owed: $14.75

Well, his mother looked at him standing there, and the boy could see the memories flashing through her mind. She picked up the pen, turned over the paper he’d written on, and this is what she wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me:
No Charge

For all the nights that I’ve sat up with you, doctored and prayed for you:
No Charge

For all the trying times, and all the tears that you’ve caused through the years:
No Charge

For all the nights that were filled with dread, and for the worries I knew were ahead:
No Charge

For the toys, food, clothes, and even wiping your nose:
No Charge

Son, when you add it up, the cost of my love is:
No Charge.

When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there were big tears in his eyes, and he looked straight at his mother and said, “Mom, I sure do love you.” And then he took the pen and in great big letters he wrote: “PAID IN FULL”.

AMEN! AMEN! Thank you Darlene for all you do for the Kingdom of God! AMEN!

May 10, 2013. Clean up your body and lifestyle. Abundance is mesmerizing. Ask God if you can give more to the church and to the poor. Let your generosity be led by God. Our daughter and her husband cannot really afford to sponsor five children, but they do. We are grateful our son and his wife sponsor two children and help feed the poor as well. Over time, I believe we have given away four cars to those who needed them worse than we did. I am glad my family gives generously. Try it. The returns on the investments are good.

What is your Life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes

Posted on May 9, 2013 by Dewey Moede

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Thank you for coming by for a CUP!

LBJ, for you young folk, Lyndon Johnson President of the United States said at the height of the bombing in Vietnam, “Sometimes I feel like an old mule stuck under a tree during a hail storm.”

When we a struck by the “hail storms” of life we seek the Lord,. AMEN!

Psalm 34:17-20

When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken

Yesterday on my way to Edgewood,NM too see my mentor Pastor Leonard Navarre (I am so thankful to have Pastor Leonard as an adviser to FGGAM!) I got a text message from Sonja Haldeman that our classmate of 1974 Windom,. Minnesota, Lynn Nagorske had passed onto Heaven. I called his wife Pam and had a very blessed conversation with her. I received many comments on the posting I did of Lynn on May 3rd after I talked to him for the first time since 1974. Pam said what I wrote touched Lynn to his soul and that someone brought a print out of the CUP to him and they will read it at the funeral.

I will never forget Lynn’s last words to me, “Keep doing what you are doing.”

Lynn is well known in Minnesota as a very successful Banker in the Twin Cities area, more importantly he was a Godly Husband and Father. Pam said he was pretty quiet about his faith but he walked the walk.

I have been praying as usual what to write this morning, the Lord has shown me for years that He wants me and you to stand in the gap for the sanctity of life. Lynn lived a Godly life, he served many people, helping the economy of the state of Minnesota. He valued human life. He had a pure heart. He took his one life here on earth that the Lord gave him and served many.

He had a pure heart. Let’s revisit the Post of May 3rd for a bit………….read on as there is another story of pure hearts and the sanctity of life.

Matthew 5:8

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

I received a phone call from my High School classmate Sonja Haldeman about our classmate Lynn Nagorske. I remember Lynn as a highly intelligent friendly man! An intelligent level that I have never reached! LOL! I would read in the Windom paper (Our Hometown) of his great work as a banker. Sonja called to tell me Lynn is in his final days of life here on earth because of cancer.
I have not talked to or seen Lynn since 1974.
Only God through His servant, Sonja could this connection happen again!
This was an appointed time by God.
To accomplish what God wants done.
I called Lynn and we had a wonderful Godly conversation, we picked up from our School days! He knows he is going to Heaven. He told me at the end of our conversation, “You keep doing what you are doing!” I will remember that the rest of my life. I prayed over him and his family. I told him what a blessing to be able to talk and pray with him. I asked him later in a text message if our prayer warriors could pray for him and his lovely wife Pam and children. He said Absolutely! What a Blessing!
Lynn is in his final days here on earth in his late 50′s. What a testimony to all of us, he is ready to meet our Lord.
This is not the script Lynn has written for his life, but he has accomplished much while here on earth, he did not waste his life. He served God’s people in his profession with Biblical principles. He has served God well and his family.
He served people……. he did not expect to be served.
May we do the same.
His Testimony is on going.

Lynn
The Lord gave me this scripture……………
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. James 1:12
Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your Life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. James 4:13-14
Those words, You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes………

Let our lives impact the Kingdom of God, let us make the Kingdom visible to the darkness. Read this next story as we come up on Mother’s Day…..The sanctity of life……Let us treasure each other.
cam bice Cameron Bice days before he died. (Photo Provided / South Bend Tribune / April 23, 2013)

By HEIDI PRESCOTTSouth Bend Tribune

6:54 p.m. EDT, May 7, 2013

No one wants to work on their birthday, but Debbie Bice knew she had to.

She was looking forward to going out to eat with her fiancé, Kevin, and their 1-year-old Cameron. It was a family birthday tradition.

As on most days, Debbie, 31, could hardly wait to see herrambunctious, blond-haired, blue-eyed boy and hear his near-constant giggle.

It had been only about two months since she returned to work, so it was still hard being away from him.

Kevin was home with Cameron that Thursday in December 2001 because his company was doing inventory. That made it tougher for Debbie to leave.

She sat down beside Cameron on the love seat and told her little boy, “I love you” and “I’ll miss you.”

She tried to get him to say “Happy birthday” or “I love you” inreturn, but he didn’t. And it really didn’t matter. They gave each other a hug and Cameron smiled at her as she closed the door.

It was about 5 o’clock when the phone at Debbie’s desk unexpectedly rang.

Maybe Kevin was calling to finalize plans for her birthday dinner or to find out exactly when she would be coming home that day.

“It’s Kevin,” she recalled him saying in an emotionally distraught voice. She hardly recognized him.

“You need to get home right now,” he pleaded.

Before Debbie could get him to calm down or slow down and tell her what was happening, he gave her the news no parent is ever prepared to hear.

Cameron was dead.

Right then and there she remembers screaming. Her manager took her home, and all she remembers is how the drive from the Elkhart office to her Osceola home felt like it took an eternity.

“By the time we got to my cul-de-sac and I saw the paramedics and firetrucks, my legs felt like they would give out from under me,” she said.

She and Kevin embraced at the front door.

“I literally fell into his arms,” she said.

Debbie went inside and looked into the living room.

“My son was on the couch with a sheet over him,” she remembered. “I went in and held his cold little hand and rubbed his face.

“I just remember how cold he was already.”

Kevin had laid Cameron down for a nap after lunch, around 1. The boy was still sleeping mid-afternoon and moving about in his crib.

It was between 4 and 4:30 when Kevin, who thought Cameron was taking an awfully long nap, went back to the boy’s room. Kevin found him not breathing, called 911 and immediately started CPR.

“I begged for him to please come back to me, that l needed him,” said Debbie, who did not want to leave her son’s side. “I begged God to take me instead. Nothing worked. I had to live with this nightmare.”

She was in the kitchen when the paramedics carried Cameron’s body to the ambulance. She wanted to hold her little boy, but at the same time she did not want to watch people take him away.

She didn’t sleep for days.

Just nine days before Cameron’s death, Debbie had thrown him a Winnie the Pooh-themed first birthday party. He had excitedly dug his fingers into his cake and stubbornly did not want to take a bath afterward.

Those memories were now replaced by images of her son’s lifeless little body.

“I’ve never cried so much,” Debbie said through tears, even now, more than 10 years later. For a long time, there was no “happy” in birthday because it reminded her of Cameron’s unexpected death.

Cameron died of sudden infant death syndrome. SIDS is the sudden death of an infant, who is usually under one year of age, that remains unexplained after a thorough case investigation.

The child usually is put down to sleep and later found dead. Debbie and Kevin will not know for sure why Cameron died, until researchers can identify with certainty what causes SIDS.

“Every person wants an answer about why their child dies. The only thing I know is that I’m never getting him back,” she said.

She and Kevin had to wait a week, until after Christmas, to have Cameron’s funeral.

“I went through the holidays without my son. I was in a daze. All the Christmas presents I had bought him, we opened them and my dad took them all back. Opening them was something I felt I had to do. I felt like I wanted him to have them,” she said.

Debbie wrote a letter to Cameron and courageously read it herself at his funeral.

“It was the last gift I could give to my child,” she said. “Cam was so little, he didn’t have a lot of stories. But I asked people to get up and share the stories they had.”

They played a song Debbie sang to her son every night before he went to sleep.

“You are my sunshine,

my only sunshine.

You make me happy,

when skies are gray.

You’ll never know dear,

how much I love you.

So please don’t take my sunshine away.”

Cameron was buried on Dec. 27, 2001, at St. Joseph Valley Memorial
Park in Granger.

Healing will come

When parents lose a child, their whole world stops, Debbie Bice said, and though it doesn’t come overnight, healing does come eventually.

She wants parents who have lost a child to know that everyone grieves differently; there is no specific amount of time it takes for someone to be OK.

“I remembered how guilty I felt the first time I laughed after he passed. There is a hole in my heart and I will live with it forever,” she said.

Four years after Cameron’s death, Debbie became chapter leader of The Compassionate Friends of St. Joseph County. The group is composed of parents, grandparents and siblings who have experienced the death of a loved one and offer understanding and support through monthly meetings.

“I was blessed to have Cameron for one year and nine days,” Debbie said. “It took time, but I finally realized I didn’t want his death to be in vain. I think God knew that I had a big mouth and I wasn’t going to keep quiet about SIDS.”

The Compassionate Friends holds annual remembrance ceremonies and other events at the Angel of Hope Memorial Garden at Pinhook Park, South Bend.

“We’re not strong; none of us feel like we’re strong,” she said. “We are survivors and we don’t want anyone to have to walk in our shoes.”

Debbie and Kevin Bice are now married and they are raising 8-year-old twin boys, Cayden and Brayden, and they are also parents to Cain, 19, and Shelby, 15.

“I feel like they were a gift from Cameron,” she said.

“He lives on. He’s with me more today than if he was with me on Earth. I try to look at it this way: It was the worst tragedy and I’d give anything to have him back in a heartbeat. But I feel like he’s with me more than if he was here. He’s an angel who is with me all the time.”

Let us keep this family in our prayers, AMEN! We all are given a mission from God here on earth, like Lynn and little Cameron they completed their mission for God. Lynn’s work and Cameron’s message will go on and on. The question I have for you today, is this: Are you doing the work that the Lord Jesus has assigned you? PRAISE GOD if you can answer yes! You only know the answer through a close personal relationship with Jesus Christ where you can hear Him! AMEN!

I pray that you will filly soak in the impact of this CUP into your life
At http://www.fggam.org we have so many PRAISE REPORTS and INSPIRATIONAL POSTINGS! You have to read this one for sure: http://www.fggam.org/grace-upon-grace/
Among the news stories at http://www.fggam.org that you find will be is about Pastor’s of different denimonations in favor of same-sex marriage in New Mexico. Standing in the gap for God on the sanctity of marriage is what we do here at FGGAM! Too many in the church are drifting away from the Full Gospel! As you stand in the gap for God, this picture is for you!

Let us pray……………..

Good morning from Legacy Riders!

Be their eyes oh God, give them your wisdom on safety and group accountability every step of the way. We thank you Lord that you will command your angels concerning Mike, Tom, Steve, Mike Sr and John to guard them and protect in all their ways; Your Word says in Isaiah 54:17, No weapon that has been made to be used against them will succeed. They will have an answer for anyone who accuses them. This is the inheritance of the LORD’s servants. and they are your sevants Lord, my God! Their victory comes from from you LORD”. Lord we stand on your promises of protection because your Word stands forever and so shall your Word be that goes forth from your mouth; It shall not return to You void, But it shall accomplish what You please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which You sent it. We thank you Lord and we praise your Holy Name! Amen!

Le’ts us all stand in agreement, because where two or more are gathered in His name, there shall He be in the midst of us! Thank you all for your prayers!

The http://www.fggam.org web site is achieving the goal God gave us, reaching many for Him. To bring news and inspiration to His people. Pastor Paul Holt has been an answer to prayer with managing the site. We are getting so many comments like this:

LOVE U BROTHER !

So proud of that web site !!! (It’s now my ‘homepage’) !!!

rick

Thank you Rick! Don Johnson of Nashville says, “Keep up the excellent work” Elizabeth of Corinth, Texas says, “I did not know that” We are getting that more and more, people saying they did not know THAT! Until they read the news on FGGAM.

FGGAM News and Inspiration is for YOU! A gift from God to you! God guides us each day on what to post. God has given us many people to post matters that He wants posted.

FGGAM is a Church without walls. For God’s Glory Alone!

Right now you will find many, many new postings at http://www.fggam.org We ask that you spread the word about http://www.fggqam.org Please make it your home page, let us know if you do! It will be of great encouragement to us! Remember, we really also appreciate your love offerings, you help fuel the engines of FGGAM! Planting seeds into FGGAM brings much fruit into the Kingdom, making the Kingdom visible to a dark world. Folks are asking us to expand our radio program, last night at the Open Door Church of God in Los Lunas before the presentation of the Harbinger, a lady came up to Pastor Mark Tross and told him, I miss Dewey on KKIM but I listen to him every Monday on KDAZ. With you standing in the gap with us here at FGGAM we can pay our TV and radio bills and prayerfully expand, Lord Willing. Please help us continue to pay our media bills. For God’s Glory Alone we go forth! It’s all about God!!!

This morning let us go into prayer over the following and focus on the Authority of the Believer! The Authority that God has given us! Read the first 3 Chapters of Ephesians this morning, read these 3 Chapters over and over the rest of the week. Paul did not pray these prayers only for the Church of Ephesus, these prayers apply to us today just as much as they did to the believers at Ephesus, because they were given by the Holy Spirit! AMEN! PRAISE GOD!

Let us pray for Juliet Tross as she has a procedure this morning to remove a stent from her kidney’s.
Juliet is the lovely wife of one of my mentor’s Pastor Mark Tross. It is Mark’s birthday today! he said he is 56 today and catching up with me!!!! LOL LOL I told him I can beat him on the basepaths however!!!! LOL LOL LOL

We continue to pray for the Bernard family for peace and comfort

Dewey, good morning.
This is Bob Hartley with an praise report about Judy Keller.
She was taken off of the ventilator on Sunday and is breathing on her own with the help of a O2 tube in her nose. She has responded a few times by opening her eyes and stating she does not like the tube.
Mike Schum her son is witnessing God”s Grace at work. He just recently started attending Sagebrush Eldorado.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!
Till next update.
Bob Hartley

Thanks for the update Bob, we are in constant prayer

Good morning everyone, Just a very short note to let everyone know I'm ok... Went through my electrocution yesterday and doc was right; it WILL get worse before it gets better... Last night was pure misery; 17 on a pain scale of 1-10... This morning I'm down from completely miserable excruciating pain (17/18) to manageable excruciating pain (9/10) which he said would last for 'a few days'... The part they didn't tell me before they had me naked in bed where I couldn't run is that they can't put you under before flipping the switch !!!... They wait till they have you tied up naked in bed before letting you know that part !... They only give you a partial as they need to be able to communicate with you during the procedure... After placing the grounding wires to my leg, they starting putting the ten; yes, I said 10, probes up and down both sides of my spine... As they started flipping the switches on the probes I very much started communicating with the doc and let him know EXACTLY how much I loved him !!! (LOL) !... Headed back to bed; little rest last night... I'll let everyone know how things progress... Love to ALL, rick

Rick you are my hero for all you have done and are doing for God’s people! AMEN! We continue to pray healing over you!

The Daily CUP was founded by God to pray for one another 15 years ago:

Prayer…

Prayer is the essence of the Spiritual life without which all ministry loses its meaning. It is the fulfillment of the great commandment to love the Lord with all our heart, all our soul and all our mind…..To pray is to unite ourselves with Jesus and lift up the whole world through Him to God in a cry of forgiveness, reconciliation, healing, and mercy….Most of all, prayer is the way to become and remain part of Jesus mission to draw all people to the intimacy of God’s love.” by Henri Nouwen, The Only Necessary Thing: Living a Prayerful Life
Let us continue to pray as we read the following Post by Darlene Quiring of Mt. lake, Minnesota a gifted Woman of God.

From helpful friends to hostile foes to a happy finale, the healing of

the paralytic is a wonderful story. But it is more than just a story.

There are lessons to be learned.

II. SOME LESSONS

A. THE POWER OF CHRIST TO FORGIVE SINS…

1. On earth, Jesus demonstrated His power to forgive sins

a. Not only in the case of the paralytic – Mk 2:5,10-11

b. But also with the woman who washed and anointed His feet

- Lk 7:44-48

c. And for the thief on the cross – Lk 23:39-43

2. From heaven, Jesus continues to have power to forgiven sins

a. Made possible by the shedding of His blood – Mt 26:28; Ep 1:7

b. Offered to those who respond to His gospel – Mk 16:16; Ac 2:
38; 10:42-43; 22:16
c. Ever available to those who walk with God – 1Jn 1:7,9

And Jesus said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men” Posted on March 21, 2013

By Pastor Dewey Moede Dewey’s Daily Cup

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Thanks for coming by for a CUP!

I just love that! I find myself doing that more and more, just stopping what I am doing and look to the sky and say, WOW! LORD! WOW! Thank YOU!

C. S. Lewis

“It was in God’s hands. One must be content to leave it there. One must have Faith.”

Please pray continue to pray for the Bernard family and also please pray for Michelle that she finds the resources she needs to fix her car.

Many, many, have asked about the afternoon espresso, Pastor Paul has been on vacation, the Espresso should return tomorrow Lord Willing, thank you for asking, we are so thankful that you are blessed by FGGAM! For God’s Glory Alone!

Yes, this is an old post back on March 21. What I find such a blessing is with our web site is that you can see what people are reading and how many times a post is being read. Of late people are going back and readiong past articles more than ever at the http://www.fggam.org web site. The Lord is blessing FGGAM! The Lord is blessing me and you! It is an AWESOME family that is growing everyday at FGGAM! Just a couple of notes before I invite you to read this past post and also some new writings that are posted here toward the bottom of this CUP!

Words must not be wasted…..The Lord has shown me more and more through His Word, and through the Holy Spirit that are Words must be spoken for Him, everything we do must be for His Glory, not ours. God gives us work to do, yes WORK, He wants to make us fisherman of Men. Stop complaining about the condition of the World and get out and be equipped to be fisherman of men. Too many complain about the condition of the world, How do you think God feels? When people decided not to stand in the gap for Him on Biblical issues, how do you think that makes God feel?

Do we ever just stop and think how God feels?

What about those words you will speak today? How will God feel about them?

Last night after our softball game in which Heights Christian Church beat Amistad…….UGH! LOL LOL
I counseled two people late into the night.

Here’s an email I got from Pastor Don Kimbro this morning, he and Dorothy were at the game last night:

Remember the immortal words of Dizzy Dean, “He slud into home, podner.” Nice slide last night, Dewey, But you better be careful. Old men’s bones break easily. God bless.

Love ya,
PD

Okay Bro! Only sliding these days when trying not to get hit by a thrown ball!!! LOL! LOL! So what’s worse an old man sliding? or being hit in the head? LOL LOL LOL LOL Don’t tell Sharon! LOL LOL

God had work for me……..His work that He has assigned me……What work has He assigned you?
As many of you know my life verse is Acts 20:24:
My life is worth nothing unless I use it for the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus.

To fulfill God’s purpose for your life, you must be in the work HE assigned you, not the work you assigned.

When you have a close personal relationship with Jesus Christ you will know the work that He has assigned you. He tell’s you!

It all comes from that personal relationship, with our Father, there is nothing more beautiful, it is not hocus pocus, it is the MIRACLE of MIRACLES!!!!!!

There is nothing like being led by God every step of your day.

Last night God had me hit a triple in softball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I believe God is blessing me at 58 for what I could not do at 18. Now I want you to listen to this:

This is part of my testimony to you, I am stronger and wiser because of my personal relationship with Jesus. I can hit a ball further now than at 18 or 25, why? Because God wants to use what I am doing to Glorify His name by using me as as a fisherman of men. He is using me on the softball field as an example of his Greatness. Letting my light shine for His Glory. Young men are attracted to an old gray haired man that can still hit and run! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

Now I will close with this for today: EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING YOU SAY AND DO MUST BE FOR THE GLORY OF GOD!

What a world it would be if people would be doing the work God has assigned them to do, but their ears are not intune with Him.

LET’S GO BACK TO THIS POST FROM MARCH 21:

What I am finding more and more when you make yourself available to God He will use you in ways that you never dreamed. God sent me to many people yesterday in person and by phone! I thought to myself yesterday what would have happened if I would not have made myself available to God?

What would have happened to all these people?
This is now my life in Jesus Christ!
I was in bed by 7pm!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL LOL!

God brought me to FGGAM to walk and drive the streets for Him and also use the Radio, TV, and internet. On Tuesday, PRAISE GOD we had a record amount of hits to the FGGAM web site. http://www.fggam.org God has told us that this site must be a site of news His people need to know and for encouragement in your walk with Jesus Christ.
What would happen to this world if more of us would make ourselves available to the World for God?
We would turn this world upside down for Jesus Christ, that is what would happen.
Everywhere I go now For God’s Glory Alone, I give all the love of Jesus!
Like yesterday, the young soldier eating at The Grill, he was wide eyed when I told him that the Lord had given me a few words for him..Don’t give in, don’t compromise, and I prayed over him! He was very joyful with our short visit.
The Lord brought to me two lovely ladies from the Fresno, Calf. area yesterday by phone, and I brought them together by phone! The Lord had told me, bring these two ladies together so they can pray for each other. Thank YOU LORD!
We are to pray over each other and share the love of Jesus Christ.
Do not be bashful to share the love and message of Jesus Christ! AMEN!
My dream is I am walking through the Grocery store and all I see is people praying over each other!!!!!!
Now that’s REVIVAL!
I am going to tell you again, I have had nobody back away from me when I pray over them and love on them!
When you are filled with the Holy Spirit and your light shines brightly, people melt. It is an amazing thing of God! For God’s Glory Alone!
Let us walk for Jesus………let us make ourselves available to the King of Kings! AMEN PTL!

Wholly Available to God

And Jesus said to them, ‘Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.’ (Mark 1:17)

When Jesus spoke these words to Simon and Andrew, He essentially made it clear that it wasn’t His desire to conform His message to their lifestyle, but to instruct them to adjust their lives to His message. He didn’t promise them worldly riches, but assured them that their lives would be enriched with power to be useful to God in ways they couldn’t be without following Him. Thus, Jesus taught them that life isn’t about seeking to fulfill selfish pursuits; it’s about making ourselves fully available to God—to be used according to His purposes for us.

When Simon and Andrew were called by Jesus, they didn’t know Him personally, yet they knew enough to realize that He had something they were in desperate need of. Most people would be reluctant to follow someone they knew so little about, but these men didn’t hesitate to go with Jesus. They were willing to walk away from everything in order to be with Him. Nothing was more important to them at that moment than to obey Jesus’ voice. Hence, they followed Him “immediately” (v.18).

We must be willing to respond to Jesus in the same way. Nothing should take His place in our lives. Nothing should be regarded as more important than doing what He says. We must cling to Jesus’ words like glue.

May 7, 2013. How about some enthusiasm for this new season? Some of this is a total surprise to you. You made a serious mistake in thinking it was time for you to step aside and outside your destiny. Don’t let your faith dwindle. It is by faith that all things get done. Some have faith only in themselves. Others have faith in secular and worldly guidance. But you have faith in Me. With this faith from Me, you will accomplish the impossible. Your life will continue to be very successful. Only believe.

Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT) “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” Ras Robinson

A Cup of Love, the Love of Jesus Christ!

Posted on May 6, 2013 by Dewey Moede

Dear family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

We love you all so dearly, in the Love of Jesus Christ! AMEN!

I want to share with you this day the scripture the Lord has on my heart. Let us be reminded that the Bread of life is the Word of God, nothing else. During these days it is so important to read the Word of God, by doing so God will speak to you through the Holy Spirit. I am so thankful to have the Lord with me because the past few days I have had some bombs thrown at me, like I am sure you all have, and I was able to react in a Jesus like way, not a humanistic way. Not that it is easy, but it is a must.

Jesus prays in John 17: 20-24

My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me, and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one, I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.
Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

Amen! Amen! There is a message for you right there! I suggest getting a Bible with the Words of Jesus in red. God’s Word is the bread of life!

What are you chasing today?

Money? a Boat? a new suit? a new updated cell phone? a vacation? God never takes a vacation! I had to throw that in there!

Are you after God’s heart?

Questions to think about and not quickly dismiss. I was asked to pray for the Community of Taos as a murder happened there in the last few days, a young man drunk killed another young man. In Albuquerque area, we had these young girls and a young man, all under 21 kill a man and stuff him in the trunk of their car.

Why do you I bring this up in talking about God’s Word and the Bread of life?

Because, in fulfilling the Great Commission here at FGGAM we share that message, the Word of God, the bread of life, the love of Jesus Christ and it softens the hardest of hearts.

I have never been turned away from anybody proclaiming the Word and Love of Jesus Christ, that is not me it is JESUS! Ever since I became FILLED with the HOLY SPIRIT, GUIDED by GOD, not myself, God sends me to people that need to hear and see His Word, His love in action.

Many of you are experiencing the same wonderful gift! PRAISE GOD!

We must reach these young people before satan destroy’s their lives and they destroy the lives of others.

Some will say, that it’s none of their business, oh my friends if you are a lover of Jesus Christ it is your business.

Yesterday at the Post Office I was walking out and an elderly man with a cane was attempting to walk up and mail a letter, I quickly walked over to him and asked if I could mail that for him. He quickly handed it over to me to mail inside for him. That could have been you….and already many of you do that. People still trust people to do the right thing. I love the elderly! I am one of them!!!!!!!!!!! LOL LOL LOL! I look it anyway! Yesterday I had a young man running around the grocery store getting things I needed, WOW! What service! I encourage you not to be shy about showing the light of Jesus Christ, the World needs it more than ever! Do not conform to this World, Keep your light shining brightly for Jesus Christ. Let others experience the Love of Jesus Christ through your actions! AMEN!

The Bible is an awesome source of encouragement and inspiration. A Christian that is feeling down can search the scriptures for an attitude change. One of the most inspiring and uplifting subjects in the Bible is God’s love for us which he demonstrated by sending Jesus to die for our sins. I pray these ten Bible Verses will lift you today. If you are doing a Bible Study on this topic, try to memorize these scriptures and let God’s love shine through you. Feel free to use these Bible passages for a small group or Sunday school study or devotional. Please add any other Bible Verses about God’s love to the comments so this may become a greater resource for others who find it.
10 Awesome Bible Verses About God’s Love
God Sent Jesus

John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.
1 John 4:9-12
By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has beheld God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us.
John 13:34-35

“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. “By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Romans 5:8

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Nothing can separate us from the Love of God
Romans 8:37-39

But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
We are Crucified in Christ
Galatians 2:20

“I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and delivered Himself up for me.
Bible Verses showing God’s Love for Us
Psalm 37:28

For the LORD loves justice, And does not forsake His godly ones; They are preserved forever; But the descendants of the wicked will be cut off.
Proverbs 8:17

“I love those who love me; And those who diligently seek me will find me.
Deuteronomy 7:9

“Know therefore that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God, who keeps His covenant and His lovingkindness to a thousandth generation with those who love Him and keep His commandments;
1 John 3:1

See how great a love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

I pray these Bible Verses about God’s Love will find a way into your heart.
This story is also posted at http://www.fggam.org, It is a story I pray that you and I live out everyday…………..Thanks to Darlene Quiring for sending in. For all the News and Inspirartion you need visit, http://www.fggam.org So many, many posting’s that will inform you and inspire you! For God’s Glory Alone!

The story starts out where she, Beth, is sitting at an airport terminal, waiting to board a plane. She was sitting there with several other people who were also waiting, whom she did not know.

As she waited, she pulled out her Bible and started reading. All of a sudden she felt as if the people sitting there around her, were looking at her. She looked up, but realized that they were looking just over her head, in the direction right behind her.

She turned around to see what everyone was looking at, and when she did, she saw a stewardess pushing a wheelchair, with the ugliest old man sitting in it, that she had ever seen before. She said he had this long white hair that was all tangled and such a mess. His face was really, really wrinkled, and he didn’t look friendly at all. She said she didn’t know why, but she felt drawn to the man, and thought at first that God wanted her to witness to him. In her mind she said she was thinking, “Oh, God, please, not now, not here.”

No matter what she did, she couldn’t get the man off of her mind, and all of a sudden she knew what God wanted her to do. She was supposed to brush this old man’s hair.

She went and knelt down in front of the old man, and said “Sir, may I have the honor of brushing your hair for you?”

He said “What?”

She thought, “Oh great, he’s hard of hearing.” Again, a little louder, she said, “Sir, may I have the honor of brushing your hair for you?”

He answered, “If you are going to talk to me, you are going to have to speak up, I am practically deaf.”

So this time, she was almost yelling, “Sir may I please have the honor of brushing your hair for you?”

Everyone was watching to see what his response would be. The old man just looked at her confused, and said “Well, I guess if you really want to.”

She said, “I don’t even have a brush, but I thought I would ask anyway.”

He said, “Look in the bag hanging on the back of my chair, there is a brush in there.”

So she got the brush out and started brushing his hair. She has a little girl with long hair, so she has had lots of practice getting tangles out, and knew how to be gentle with him. She worked for a long time, until every last tangle was out.

Just as she was finishing up, she heard the old man crying, and she went and put her hands on his knees, kneeling in front of him again looking directly into his eyes, and said “Sir, do you know Jesus?”

He answered, “Yes, of course I know Jesus. You see, my bride told me she couldn’t marry me unless I knew Jesus, so I learned all about Jesus, and asked Him to come into my heart many years ago, before I married my bride.”

He continued, “You know, I am on my way home to go and see my wife. I have been in the hospital for a long time, and had to have a special surgery in this town far from my home. My wife couldn’t come with me, because she is so frail herself.”

He said, “I was so worried about how terrible my hair looked, and I didn’t want her to see me looking so awful, but I couldn’t brush my hair, all by myself.”

Tears were rolling down his cheeks, as he thanked Beth for brushing his hair. He thanked her over and over again.

She was crying, people all around witnessing this were crying, and as they were all boarding the plane, the stewardess, who was also crying, stopped her, and asked, “Why did you do that?”

And right there was the opportunity, the door that had been opened to share with someone else, the love of God. We don’t always understand God’s ways, but be ready, He may use us to meet the need of someone else, like He met the need of this old man, and in that moment, also calling out to a lost soul who needed to know about His love.
