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.

THE LIFE OF SAMUEL

PART 3- THE ARK OF THE COVENANT

__________________


As previously mentioned in yesterday’s message, the Philistines had taken the Ark of the Covenant and placed it in their pagan temple next to their false god Dagon. Dagon kept falling down and its head, and the palms of its hands were cut off, leaving only his stump. It brought such fear that Dagon’s false priests never went into that temple again (1 Samuel 5:5).


The hand of the Lord was heavy against the Philistines for taking the ark. Many men died, and those who did not die were smitten with emerods (hemorrhoids). After seven months of this, the Philistines decided that the only path to relief was to send the ark back to Israel, which they did.


The used milk cows to carry the ark on a cart to Israel and it came to rest at Beth-she-mesh, where there was a very large stone.  The Levites took the ark off the cart and offered the cows and the cart as a burnt offering to the LORD. They placed the ark upon that stone, the stone of Abel. 


The curious men of Beth-she-mesh opened the ark and looked into it. Consequently 50,070 men died because of what they had done. The ark remained on that stone (1 Samuel 7:2). Then Samuel gathered the people when the people cried for deliverance from the Philistines. The people repented, so Samuel made a burnt offering to the LORD. As he was offering this sacrifice, the Philistine’s army came to battle with them. The Lord brought a great thunder upon them and scattered them which allowed the Israelites to defeat them.


The Philistines were subdued, and Israel retook all the cities that had been taken from them.


In 1 Samuel 7:12, Samuel took a stone and placed it between Mizpeh and Shen as a testimony of God’s help. He called the name of it Ebenezer, which means “the stone of help.”


Samuel judged Israel all the rest of his days (1 Samuel 7:15-17). He is what we would call a “circuit rider” going from his home in Ramah to Beth-el, Gilgal, and Mizpeh every year. He built an altar unto the LORD at his house in Ramah.

LET IT GO

__________________



Some of us spend our entire lives looking into a rear-view mirror. We are always wanting to go back to the “might have been,” or live in the “I wish I had.” By doing this we fail to see what God has right in front of us.  


It is for certain that if we look into the rear-view mirrors without looking ahead we will certainly crash. We cannot go back and live our lives over. We can learn from the past, but we must let go of it to press on to the next place that Christ has for us.  


How sad it will be to stand before God one day and have Him show us what we missed because we did not “let go” of the past.  


My friends, God has something bigger and better for us than we can imagine. Yes, there are those people and ties to the past that pull us back. Perhaps it was a relationship with someone that was not a Christian and you just cannot let go.  


I often think of the Apostle Paul. He had been a murderer, a Pharisee, a legalistic tyrant overseeing the stoning of Stephen. He was transformed through Jesus Christ but had to deal with his past. He called himself wretched. (Romans 7:24.)


 In 1 Corinthians 15:9-10 Paul defined his life, “For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the Church of God. But by the GRACE OF GOD I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.” Paul learned to let go of his failures. We must learn to do that too but also let go of yesterday’s successes! Do not stay in the past.


You will never, I say never become what God wants for you if you do not let go. Perhaps it is a loved one that died, and your heart is grieving and broken because you miss them so much. Do not let this control your future. God has a new beginning each and every day.  


Letting go is a choice! We must choose to forget those things that are behind us and move on into God’s destiny for us. You cannot make bread from yesterday’s yeast that never rose. Let go and let God!

PROPHETIC WORDS AND EXHORTATIONS AND INSPIRATION

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION


It seems that so many are looking for a "Prophecy or Prophetic word" spoken over them that they are discounting hearing from the Lord for themselves. In the Old Testament God spoke to His people through the Prophet, the Priest, and the King because the Holy Spirit did not reside in the hearts of individuals. But in the New Testament those that receive the Lord have the Holy Spirit living in them. In John 16:13 we learn that "...He will guide you into all truth.." So, if we want to know the "truth" for our lives, we should depend upon the Holy Spirit individually. We hear his voice through the Word of God, and through prayer. Why settle for a second hand conversation when you can hear from God for yourself? Am I discounting prophetic words? No, but don't make them your first choice!


APOSTLE PAT MURRAY

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION


No doubt some great folks entered into this another new year with a DREAM or even a PROMISE they’ve been holding ONTO; And they’ve been faithfully holding OUT for it as well. Now IF you’re one of those who’ve been watching and WAITING; Yet still nothing has happened for you. Well let me assure you that it has NOT been DENIED; It has only been DELAYED…For your own good. Just keep your FAITH up and remain STRONG; Knowing in your heart that your PROMISE is STILL scheduled for an appointed time and an appointed place. Remember the words Prophet Habakkuk wrote in‭‭ Habakkuk 2‬:‭3‬, “For the vision is yet for an appointed time; And it does not lie…If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It may have been delayed; But it won’t be denied”. So keep your head up, your faith high, and don’t you ever think about giving up on yourself; Nor the holding onto your PROMISE and to your PURPOSE. Now you can rest and know that all is well; For it is going to take PATIENCE to bring you into your place of PEACE, PURPOSE and…To your PROMISE.

Wednesday Scripture of the day


“The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.”

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭23‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 Praise God! HCC

 

 

Everyday is a good day to praise our God on high.

Search me Jesus and know my heart!

You see all that’s within me. Help me change

To be a better me. Give me the eyes of truth

To see, as I look to you and praise your name

My Lord Almighty. You’re the Creator of this

Universe, but you walk each day with me.

You walk with millions at one time. What a Savior.

And you are the one that died for me!

My mind so small to comprehend all that you

Possess and more. So, I come by faith dear Holy

One. I embrace your beautiful love, and I will

Live again with you.
