INSPIRATIONAL NEWSLETTER

AUGUST 18, 2026

 
 
 
 
 

 We pray that this newsletter and its contents that we share will help you on your daily journey with Christ, causing you to grow in the ways of the Lord.



The giftings of the fivefold ministry (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher) should have one purpose, and that is the teaching and equipping of the saints until we come into unity.


This is why we teach so that you can grow stronger in your faith until unity comes in the body of Christ. Take what you have learned and share it with others so that we can further the kingdom for Jesus Christ.

NO FEAR ALLOWED


Satan uses fear to control us. If he can get an inroad into your soul by using fear, even though you are a Christian, he can control you.


1 John 4:18 says, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love [God’s love to us] casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.”


Many are tormented by fear and have not learned that it is our adversary, the devil, that places fear into our thought life. We back that up with 2 Timothy 1:7 that says, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; [fear doesn’t come from God.] but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”


We do not want to think that the devil controls us, but he does control us if we continuously walk in fear.


Fear comes when we focus on the problems in our life and not on the promises of God. Isaiah 26:3 says, “Thou wilt keep him [that is you and I] in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: [the Lord and his promises.] BECAUSE HE TRUSTETH IN THEE.”is Promises]


Fear shows a lack of trust. Lack of trust in God ultimately brings fear. We can be certain that God wants good for us. He can be trusted when others fail us. 


Do not let fear control your life. Let God have control and the fear will leave. When the devil tries to put fear on you, quote scripture back to him. That is how Jesus defeated him and that is how we also will defeat him.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

God hates gossip. Don't let it come from your lips, and don't speak it to others. It destroys lives and displeases God. Talebearers are the reason many relationships have been destroyed. Let it stop with you.

APOSTLE PAT MURRAY

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

_____________


It’s true my friend that we NONE can ever CHANGE our PAST; Oh, but we could end up RUINING our PRESENT by constantly WORRYING about our FUTURE. So LIVE today and do your BEST to make it a fabulously BLESSED day for yourself; And when possible for those around you as well. Now IF you happen to SEE someone today WITHOUT a nice big SMILE...Then how about giving them one of yours? Just remember there's never a person out there who’s more BANKRUPT than that poor soul...WITHOUT even one smile to give to others around them. So today start reaching out and touching someone with a nice big smile; And then you just might end up having an even happier and more blessed day for your own self. Now what do you think about trying that? After all, you just may end up making YOURSELF happier as well as those you THOUGHT you were only giving a great big smile

How we handle disappointments, will grow our trust in God and grow our spiritual maturity. We would be weak and shallow children, if our Heavenly Father said "yes" to everything we wanted. He always has a plan and it is always better than anything we can come up with. How surrendered to Him are we and how committed are we to His will and plan for us? Sometimes He will say "wait" because His timing for us isn't here yet. You have to trust His timing, as part of His plan.

 
 
 

  

 Hard Times! HCC


In the hard times, God comes in

and you learn Much and you grow.

No hard times, no growth.

That is how it goes, when you’re a Christian.

Pray, yes pray to your Savior Jesus Christ.

He is with us through all hard times.

He directs Your path of right.

He guides you day and night.

In his arms you will be alright. 

Keep on praying

Keep on moving forward,

as you learn and as you Grow in him.

Being a Christian is not a easy path.

But this Savior who died for you,

guides your path To your Eternity with him.

So come, come to the Shepherd,

hear his voice and walk in the door of Love.

That love will open to the best friend,

You will ever have. Jesus!
