We have been studying on this & discussing this at church as well. While
we know there is a "bigger plan", it still didn't/doesn't hurt to pray
for the much needed rain.

I'm going to share the gospel truth with you and ask that
you take this back to that church and share it with all who
'can' receive.

don't ask God for what you need. thank God for knowing
exactly what you need and His having already provided it.
to believe is to receive.

The logical mindset is
'seeing is believing'
while the spiritual mindset is
'believing is seeing!'


Small cattlemen/farmers have really been
"pushed" out this year. While the gummit is offering "relief" for some,
I doubt that in the long run it would actually be "relief".

those leaning towards a gummit for assistance are believing only
in what they can see. therefore they are actually standing on
their own power. their power is limited to the flesh and all
flesh is by itself defeated and doomed to failure.

Jesus said:
Joh 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth
in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for
without me ye can do nothing.

Heard that all my life...as well as a few others.

Psa 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all
his benefits:
Psa 103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth
all thy diseases;

1Pe 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body
on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto
righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

did you ever hear a church congregation pray asking God to
heal a sick person? actually they are begging God to do
that which God has He Himself already done. everyday I
sin and with each new sin Lord Jesus does not climb back
up on the "tree" to bare that one for me. Jesus did that
and all that is needed over 2000 years ago because He
already knew exactly what I needed. He already knew all
that needed to be known and with that He did back then
all that needed to be done.

God knows our needs.

next time you run into or cross trails with a believer
in Jesus Christ who is experiencing sickness help them
by sharing these truths:
Psa 103:3
1Pe 2:24
Mat 9:20
Mat 9:21
Mat 9:22
Luk 7:7
Luk 7:8
Luk 7:9
Luk 7:10

Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye
transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may
prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect,
will of God.

Eph 4:23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God
is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Eph 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man
truth with his neighbor: for we are members one of another.


"YAY!!! It's raining!!!!" for yes it is always raining
the blessings from The Lord God Almighty onto and upon
those who will believe.

the power is contained within the spoken Word and the
"Word was made flesh" [Joh 1:14]. the Glory and all
the Glory belongs to God. I give thanks to Him for
allowing me to be the donkey He rides upon.

may His grace be forever upon you,
the donkey
