we need to pray for finance for the work in the ministry so that we can be able to face the investment the devil has put in the satanic ministry.God gave me the assignment to restore his principle of female virginity before marriage.Since sex is marriage and sex with other men before marriage.
Now we have websites the problem is financing the virgin girls and using them as role models to promote female virginity before marriage.The problem is financing.
prostperity messages is not working.We dont need money we need gadgets to work with and we can make it happen.I dont have $1000 to buy a laptop and projector to show my tutorials.But if we get people including me to donate$1 dollar each or $10 we can buy a lot of laptops and other things so that thos of us in poor ministries can rent at a low fee.
We need to have what to use for the ministry.we dont need money for luxury but eresources to work with,Since trhe ministry of God is not our ministry so we just need the products to work with.waitingtill we get money befor we us a gadget will be unneccesary.And waste time time. check these sites

I got saved in the US Navy. I was stationed overseas, in a Buddhist country at the time. Christ can save you anywhere.
Coming home, after a few months, I found that the church overseas was in deep contrast to the stateside church. I'll leave it at that.
Of late, after reading the good Book a number of times, I'm finding myself skydiving. The message helped out, but the Lord was a 'few' months ahead of you with the message. He got me to realize the importance of praying David-like prayers instead of the canned, watch-what-you-say-to- God, prayers. Letting the Lord know how I feel about issues. The Lord "took me off of one of those self made clouds and let me walk on earth."
Thanks for the encouraging message. It let me know I've been placed back on track.
Lord bless you all,

Kevin

Forming a lasting bond with Christ by diving into the bible and putting it into action.

Serving the Lord through children and teaching them that they are loved.

Living each day to it's maximum potential and leaving each person I meet with someone new to think about. :-)

The past couple years our family has been thrown a few curves, yet what I am finding is that the Lord is using each of the hard things to teach me much, and not necessarily new things. In fact, in most cases they are things He has attempted to teach me or "fashion" in me once, or many times before now.
I have never lived on a written down budget, and consequently, years ago I ended up in debt from mistakes made. I have always been a gift-giver and would simply "pick things up" when something reminded me of someone. He has taught me that perhaps those were His way of reminding me to pray for someone, give them a call, or spend some time w/them. His plan was never for me to go into debt.
The first year after our accident and my mom's injury, I kept up w/things (bills for them and me) fairly well, then about one year ago, my ability to keep up seemed to get lost. I was finding piles of mail I had not opened months later (probably due to the running back and forth and spending so much time away from my own space). In any case, I now have the need to "catch up". On one hand it seems impossible, yet I know w/God nothing is impossible.
So, these are my three goals for this next month.
1)finalize my taxes for years '06 and '07 w/the help of one of my "partners", Joan.
2)get on target w/my business by formulating a plan and working my plan w/the help of my cousin and second "partner", in this bucket list, Christine. This will add value to my life as I am able to pour into more women's lives.
3)work through the Dave Ramsey Total Money Makeover book and begin at least to get my debt reduction going (this will mean sitting down and writing a letter to all of my creditors)
THANK YOU...this was all so very timely for me.
To Him who is able to do "exceedingly, abundantly more than we could ask or even imagine". Living in His sufficient grace that gives me His perfect strength in my weakness.

I've been given how much time I have left by a Doctor. I take each breath as if it is my last and I have never been happier in my life. Although each day gets harder, life gets a little easier. In the end it always comes back to the little things. Stop, breath and enjoy it.

The "skydiving" session really touched my heart and I thought about the next 30 days being my last. How did I want to live them and what did I want to do? a bagillion thoughts came to mind, yet after praying it became clear.
1. Get to know God even more before I meet him and 2. Tell the people who I love and care for how they have affected my life.

For the first part I've been praying more with my husband and doing daily readings in the Bible--the stories are actually coming to life more (reading a Bible in a Year Bible).

For the second part, I've written about 26 people and I've been blessed even more with their responses.

Thanks KCC for this amazing series and reminding us to look to God first in everything!

This is long, but stick with it and you may get goose-bumps....

The first week in July, while shopping at Target, I met a lady in the food court. Her motorized shopping cart was blocking my and my two children's exit, so she got up to move it.

I made nice, small-talk..."thanks for moving your cart, oh, your knees are bad?". It was at this point she launched a small attack on me and people my age..."Why don't you people do anything about the situation in nursing homes?". I could sense something was really bothering her and she told me about her sister who is in a home. I ended up getting her phone number so that I could call her with the Attorney General's number. She was surprised when I called her and we spoke briefly on the phone. I was heading out of town for a wedding and told her I would call her when I got back.

Fast-forward to Sunday, July 13th (?)...we got back from our trip and decided at the last minute to go to church. The title of the service was, "Help a stranger for the good". I got a little choked up, and thought about my new friend and that I almost forgot about calling her. The timing was certainly God's...thanks for the reminder big guy! I told my husband that there must be a reason God wants me to help her (to which he replied..."maybe she is here to help you..."
--thanks for that slice of humble-pie honey!).

I called Louise on Tuesday and asked if I could buy her a cup of coffee the following week. We agreed upon Wednesday, and I met her at the Royal Oak Starbuck's. We chatted for about an hour, and I learned a lot about her and her passion for painting. She is quite an artist (she brought some pictures of her work). We agreed to meet again and she said she couldn't believe that I called her, but was pleasantly surprised.

I called her again yesterday and told her I would love to see her artwork in person. She really seemed to want me to bring my children to see the paintings as well. Here is where the goose-bumps come in...

I have been a little lazy in my pursuing God (by not reading my bible and praying consistently). I go through seasons where I am good about it and things seem to go really well...then I get lazy and eventually after feeling a little down, I hear a message at church that gives me a nudge. This past weekend I got the nudge and so I started to read Ecclesiastes (totally by accident).
Gotta say, not the most uplifting stuff (until put into context). A friend recommended Proverbs for a change...thank goodness!

Anyway, I was about to meet Louise at her apartment and I started thinking about God and what meeting Louise was all about. About five minutes into our meeting I got my answer...I could have cried (and later I did). She was showing me pictures of family and friends when she pointed to one photo in particular. I couldn't really see it, but she told me that they were her friends from Kensington (she doesn't attend to my knowledge). I said, "The church?" and she said, "yes, this is..." at which point I said, "Dave Nelson and his wife!!". She said, "you know them?". Did I know them...YES!!! I have met them on several occasions and certainly look forward to all their updates from UT. It turns out that Susie became friends with Louise in 2002-2003 and spent a good amount of time with her. Louise has all their children's names and birth dates taped to her wall. She also gets visits from Genesis members occasionally.

God was clearly at the center of this not-so-random meeting at Target. Although I have yet to figure out my role in this whole relationship, I have discovered a new friend and a refreshed faith in God. I know that He will somehow use this experience to bless many!

Keep Kensington from clipping people.

Read a decent Kensington website.

Tell certain people at KCC to shove it.

Stop having stupid series that last for eternity.

Bring back and fund the singles ministry.
