MATTHEW 7:13-14

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”

BUT ONE MUST ENTER IN THROUGH GOD'S SON, JESUS CHRIST. PLEASE, ACCEPT HIM AS YOUR SAVIOUR TODAY. THIS IS MY PRAYER TODAY.

BROTHER IN CHRIST,

BRAD E. ISAACS

COLOSSIANS 3:13

“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

YOU ANOINT MY HEAD WITH OIL

WHEN WE COME TO GOD ...WE COME WITH HIGH HOPES AND A HUMBLE HEART.IN ANCIENT ISRAEL SHEPHERDS USED OIL FOR 3 THINGS;TO REPEL INSECTS,TO PREVENT CONFLICTS,AND TO HEAL WOUNDS.BUGS BUG PEOPLE,BUT THEY CAN KILL SHEEP.FLIES MOSQUITOS,,AND GNATS CAN TURN THE SUMMER INTO A TIME OF TORTURE FOR THE LIVESTOCK.CONSIDER NOSE FLIES ,FOR EXAMPLE.IF THEY DEPOSIT THERE EGGS IN THE NOSTRAL OF THE SHEEPS NOSE,THE EGGS BECOME WORM LIKE LARVE,WHICH DRIVE SHEEP INSANE ONE SHEPHERD EXPLAINS ;"FOR RELIEF FROM THIS AGONIZING ANNOYANCE,SHEEP WILL BEAT THEI HEADS AGAINST TREES,ROCKS, POSTS,OR BRUSH.....IN EXTREME A SHEEP MAY EVEN KILL ITS SELF IN A FRENZIE DOING THATSO THEY COVER THERE NOSES WITH OIL..THEY USE OIL ON WOUNDS ,CUTS AND ABRASIONS ,THE SHEPHERDS USE THIS OIL TO TAKE CARE OF HIS FLOCK...HE DOESNT WANT ANYTHING TO HAPPEN TO ANY OF HIS SHEEP.NEITHER DOES GOD.JUST LIKE SHEEP,WE HAVE WOUNDS,BUT OURS ARE WOUNDS OF THE HEART THAT COME FROM DISAPPOINTMENTS.IF WERE NOT CAREFUL THESE WOUNDS WILL LEAD TO BITTERNESS.AND SO JUST LIKE SHEEP,WE NEED TO BE TREATED."GOD MADE US AND WE BELONG TO HIM;WE ARE HIS PEOPLE,THE SHEEP HE TENDS.SHEEP ARENT THE ONLY ONES THAT NEED PREVENTIVE CARE.SHEEP ARENT THE ONLY ONES THAT NEED A HEALING TOUCH.WE ALSO GET IRITATED WITH EACH OTHER,BUTT HEADS AND GET WOUNDED.MANY OF OUR DISAPPOINTMENTS IN LIFE BEGAIN AS IRRITATIONS.THE LARGE PORTION OF OUR PROBLEMS ARE NOT LION SIZED ATTACKS,BUT JUST THE DAY TO DAY SWARM OF FRUSTRATIONS AND MISHAPS AND HEARTEACHES.YOU DONT GET INVITED TO A DINNER PARTY,YOU DONT MAKE THE TEAM,YOU DONT GET THE PROMOTION AT WORK,YOUR HUSBAND DOESNT NOTICE YOUR NEW DRESS,YOUR NEIGHBOR DOES NOTHING ABOUT THE MESS IN HIS YARD,YOU FIND YOUR SELF MORE GRUMPY ,IRRITABLE, GLOOMY,MORE AND MORE MORE HURT...THEN GOD STEPS IN...WE WILL STOP HERE TILL TOMORROW ...YOU HAVE A BLESSED DAY,GOD LOVES YAS , WE LOVE YAS ,YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,,,FROM THE RIVERBOTTOM,,,RON

PSALM 121:7-8

MR. STEVE PICKETT,

THANK YOU FOR THE WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT CONCERNING THIS POST FOR FELLOW CHRISTIANS TO FELLOWSHIP OR OBTAIN THEIR DAILY BREAD DURING THEIR DAILY WALK WITH JESUS CHRIST. PLEASE READ THE SCRIPTURE ABOVE......

I WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU AND YOUR CHURCH DURING THIS TIME. CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON THE WORDS AND BIBLICAL TEACHINGS OF OUR LORD AND UPHOLD THEM AS YOU HAVE BEEN APPOINTED TO DO.

PEOPLE REACT TO CONVICTION IN DIFFERENT WAYS BUT JESUS WOULD WANT US TO BOW DOWN, HUMBLE OURSELVES, AND ASK FOR FORGIVENESS AND WISDOM TO DO BETTER INSTEAD OF RUNNING FROM A SITUATION THAT GOD HAS INTENTIONALLY PUT BEFORE A PERSON TO GET THEIR ATTENTION. A PERSON WHO RUNS FROM CONVICTION IS EITHER ASHAMED OR UNWILLING TO CHANGE THEIR LIFE, FOR UNKNOWN REASONS, EVEN WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT IS SPEAKING DIRECTLY TO THEM BROTHER.

BEING A LEADER IS NEVER EASY, ESPECIALLY WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES PUT YOU IN A POSITION TO STEP UP OUT OF YOUR "COMFORT ZONE" TO STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND SET A GOOD EXAMPLE WHEN OTHERS ARE TRYING TO FIND FAULT AND ACCUSE A PERSON OR THE CHURCH OF WRONG DOING. CONTINUE YOUR WORK FOR THE LORD FOR HE IS SMILING DOWN UPON YOU DAILY AS YOU ACKNOWLEDGE HIM IN ALL YOUR WAYS. GOD BLESS YOU STEVE AND FEEL FREE TO PARTICIPATE AT ANY TIME ON THIS THREAD.

BROTHER IN CHRIST,

BRAD E. ISAACS

ISAIAH 40:31

“but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”

NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN LIFE, ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN OR IN THE DEEPEST AND DARKEST OF VALLEYS, GOD IS RIGHT THERE WITH YOU................. WHEN YOU FALL TO THE GROUND IN EXHAUSTION AND WANT TO GIVE UP, GOD WILL THEN BE CARRYING YOU. PLEASE READ THE SCRIPTURE ABOVE, IT IS ONE OF MY BROTHERS VERY FAVORITES.........IT IS YOUR DECISION OF WHETHER OR NOT TO CLING TO GOD AND HIS LOVE AND APPROACH YOUR HIGHEST OF POINTS OR LOWEST POINTS OF LIFE WITH HIM.

I PROMISE YOU ONE THING NO MATTER WHAT, YOU WILL BE MUCH BETTER OFF WITH GOD AT ALL TIMES IN YOUR LIFE SO PRAISE HIM, SING PRAISES UNTO HIS HOLY NAME, AND ACCEPT HIS SON JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOUR. IT HAS BEEN WRITTEN AND MADE REAL CLEAR, YOU CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN UNLESS YOU ENTER IN THROUGH HIS SON, JESUS CHRIST. MY PRAYER FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT YET ACCEPTED JESUS CHRIST, PLEASE ACCEPT HIM TODAY AS YOUR PERSONAL SAVIOUR.

LIFE WITHOUT JESUS IS LIKE ENTERING INTO A ROOM OF COMPLETE DARKNESS AND TRYING TO FIND A SMALL NEEDLE BURIED INTO THE CARPET..... TRY IT, IT WON'T TAKE VERY LONG BEFORE YOU WILL BE SEARCHING FOR THE "LIGHT SWITCH" TO MAKE YOUR SEARCH MUCH EASIER. JESUS CHRIST IS THE "LIGHT SWITCH" FOR ALL CIRCUMSTANCES BUT WE MUST BE WISE ENOUGH TO FIND THE LIGHT SWITCH IN ORDER TO SEE THINGS CLEARLY AS WE EXPERIENCE THEM IN EVERYDAY LIFE.

BROTHER IN CHRIST,

BRAD E. ISAACS

2 THESSALONIANS 3:3

“But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.”

WITH THE LORD IN YOUR CORNER, WHAT CAN HARM OR DEFEAT YOU????????????????????? NOTHING.

IT IS WRITTEN AND WE AS CHRISTIANS BELIEVE IT. PRAISE THE LORD.

BROTHER IN CHRIST,

BRAD E. ISAACS
