FAITH: OUR LIFE PRESERVER
_______________
I have been a fisherman since I was six years old. It is important when you go out to sea in a boat to have a life preserver. Without it, you could perish in a storm, or if your boat capsizes.
In the storms of our earthly life, we also could perish if not for a life preserver. What is our life preserver? It is our faith on Christ Jesus, our Savior.
There is a hymn which tells us this. It is taken from 2 Timothy 1:12b where it says, “For I know in whom I have be-liev-ed and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.”
We have committed ourselves to Jesus against [unto] that glorious day of reckoning. He is able to keep that which we have committed to him in faith, namely our life, our very being, our future, all that we have, and all that we are.
Jesus prayed to the Father in John 17:11b for us saying, “Holy Father, keep [preserve] through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one [with us] as we are one.”
The Father will preserve us blameless into eternity. What better assurance could we have? Our faith is our life preserver in the storms of life. The captain of our ship [Jesus] on life’s ocean guarantees it.

TRAINING WHEELS
_______________
Often when a child that has never ridden a bike receives a new bicycle, training wheels are put on it so it will not tip over easily. Those wheels help the child to balance as they learn to ride. Once they have learned to ride the bike and can balance in their ride then the training wheels come off. They have accomplished how to ride without them.
In our walk with God, we are gifted by the Lord with an Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, and Teacher. These five individual gifts are like training wheels. They help us to stay upright and keep balance on our life’s path. These individuals must know the scripture well enough that they can guide the “new” children in faith until they are well balanced and stable enough to “ride” on their own.
Most churches do not function in these gifts. We see the Pastor, and sometimes an Evangelist, but rarely do we see the Apostle, Prophet, and Teacher [not a Sunday school teacher] being used as God designed. It is no wonder that so many Christians “fall” on their path because they have not been trained and are off balance. When you do not know how to “ride” through life, you may go down a path that leads to deception. This in turn brings chaos to one’s walk.
Why aren’t these gifts being used by the church [the body of Christ which includes every believer]? I would say the simplest answer is Satan has deceived people into believing that these gifts ended when the apostles of the lamb died. If that were the case, then Ephesians 4:13 would be in error. What does it say? Verse 12 says the five-fold ministry gifts were given to equip the saints, then verse 13 tells us how long those gifts are for, “till we all come to the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.” Since there is very little unity in the body of Christ, these gifts are still needed.
Without the correct training as a child to ride a bicycle, a child may give up after they hit a bump and fall. This also happens to many Christians when they hit life’s bumps that cause them to be out of balance and fall.
I believe it is imperative we get back to Ephesians 4:11-16 and become trained. Then, and only then will the believer be strong enough to avert the fiery darts that will come and would cause them to stumble and fall.
Let us be the ones to believe that spiritual training wheels are absolutely necessary for a Christian to learn and grow without a fall. Let us bring balance back to the body of Christ!

A PROPHETIC WORD
AS GIVEN TO HELEN SANDERS
How often I would have you come aside and listen to what I would say, for there is much ahead that will require great faith and without hearing my voice you may fall into deep deception. For a very dark time is coming upon the land. There shall be many hours of chaos and the streets will be filled with the blood shed of the innocent. For, in this hour a cleansing wind is blowing across the land. I am in this wind. I am blowing this wind to bring people to a place of repentance and fear of the Lord again. For just as I visited the house of Moses in times past and caused a leader to be raised up, there were many things that came about through the work that I placed in his hands. I am looking for those that will have the same spirit and be willing to make a stand against leadership that is ungodly. For in this hour, there shall be many things come upon those that I would call the enemies of God. For, there are many that will say Lord, Lord, but I never knew them. They have never made me Lord, it is in name only. I am looking for those that have a heart like David, a heart that would be after me and would quickly repent when my spirit brings conviction. I am looking for those that would put their hand to the plow and not look back. Those that are willing to put their all on my altar and go forward without knowing the complete plan but knowing that I will guide them. I am resolute in bringing this about. There will be no glory given to any man that does not yield to my spirit. For the days on the earth will be so full of violence that many will faint. This is the time to say, no weapon formed against me will prosper and rise up and be as David with Goliath. Yes, there will be many Goliaths but the rock, Christ Jesus is in your hand, and all you have to do is fling that rock, which is the word of God, at the enemy and you will bring him to the ground. Oh, that my people could only see what they truly are made of. They look at the outer man, but the strength in this hour will not come from the outer man. It will come from the inner man, led by my Spirit. Oh, can’t you see what you can do through my power and name? This is not the hour to fear, for I would say that the fearful and liars will not inherit my kingdom. Only those with a resolve to stand for truth and be the remnant that will rise up will be saved in the hour ahead. I would not say look at others and say what about them, for I will deal with each individual on their own. Each one must account for their own actions. This is the time to look inwardly and not outwardly. Will you be that one? Will you carry my word into the gross darkness that is coming and is already here? Will you be the one to stand for truth when those around you compromise? If that is you, then you shall surely see victory in and through you saith the Lord. Now prepare, for the season at hand will reveal much in my people as to what they are leaning upon. Do not try to reason this out with your mind. The mind will fail you. Do not try to do battle in your own strength, for the flesh will fail you. Remember the words of old where I told my prophet, “Not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord. You shall see mountains removed.” Now put some praise upon your lips and I will destroy the chains of prison that have bound you. Your praise will defeat those that would come against you. Hold no offense and hold no bitterness. Just walk in my power and love and you shall see victory saith the Lord.

APOSTLE PAT MURRAY
PROPHETIC EXHORTATION
6-18-2024
It was in Ziklag where David the great man of God felt the crushing blows of rejection, isolation and utter defeat. (I Sam. 30) It was through the extreme desperation of it all; That caused David to end up with a broken heart. In fact, it came really close to totally breaking him. However, in spite of suffering the pain David experienced great gain..And it birthed a King. So learn from his experience how the loneliness of your own isolation can indeed become your biggest sanctuary…And your breaking point can and will become a birthing place of your promised purpose. Just remember to not let your pain be in vain; But you keep trusting God through it all.

Thought For Today
Never be distracted in Prayer. Do not let the cares of life keep you from praying. It is essential to make time to pray. Some people have set aside a certain room in their home for prayer time. I know my room is my car. I am forever praying as I drive to my destination. Follow after the Lord in all you do and spend time in His Presence. You will never be disappointed as He works through you. Also I encourage you to pray in your prayer language.
“Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.”
Ephesians 6:18 NLT
“For if I pray in tongues, my spirit is praying, but I don’t understand what I am saying. Well then, what shall I do? I will pray in the spirit, and I will also pray in words I understand. I will sing in the spirit, and I will also sing in words I understand.”
1 Corinthians 14:14-15 NLT
If you do not have your prayer language and you would like it I will be more than happy to pray for you.
Jesus is our only anchor!

Powerful! HCC
God the Father and his word are powerful!
Let the perfume of his presence,
Float all around you. Float with the
Fragrance of love, of peace,
Joy, and forgiveness. Come to Christ,
Read his life. Read the story of our World,
This powerful story of God the Father,
Creator of all. How powerful it is,
That this Father, gave us his Son Jesus,
To die for our sins. What better perfume,
Is this, the fragrant smell of forgiveness?
Oh, how sweet it is, this gentle Savior,
This risen King!
