Do Onto Others...Awesome Word given today!

Posted: 23 Sep 2011 

Good morning,

     For the past two nights I have had a recurring dream.  I awake in a field, it appears to be harvest time, for all around I see rows of growth.  Every field seems green and opulent.  I walk through to investigate each row, touching and admiring each as I go, happy that I have such a great return off of the seeds that I have sown and tended.  The first row bears a sign in front that represents my "financial harvest return", my giving to ministries as well as to individuals.  Another row bore a sign of "my time", it is time that I had sown into people's lives, it seemed as productive as the first [being that I am a pastor, it looked alright].  On and on it went until I came to a depressed, pitiful row.  There was not much growth there.  It had been overlooked, it was full of weeds, with a few young upstarts.  It had obviously been unattended.  I started to just ignore this row.  One poor row out of so many excellent ones, what did it matter?  The sign said, "do unto others"!  I turn to leave and that's when this little old man that was working in this row came over and spoke with such strength, that I immediately knew that it was the Lord speaking.  He said...
     "So many missed opportunities to plant this seed, one that would add life to all that you have planted.  It is a seed that I prefer, to esteem those who have lightly esteemed you.  To treat them the exact way that you wanted them to treat you.  Yet, you withheld the seeds that would have caused this field to come back to you in an abundant harvest.  Many of My children let this part of their gardens become abandoned or fall into neglect.  They tend only to pay attention to their feelings here, now that is when selfish ambition mounts up, the desire to defend and protect oneself, to dictate their momentary course of action.  Here, when they do not choose to walk My higher road, they yield, with concern only for their welfare, forgetting that I Am their vindicator.  I will repay all men everything done in the flesh, and for the motives and the secret intents of the heart.  Remember always that your whole life is a garden, seeds sown that will bring an eventual harvest.  Seeds that are sown to the flesh bring only corruption.  No mater what, you must recognize that all harvests bear and produce after the nature of the seed.  That is why you must never let anyone else determine your harvest.  You put them in charge of your harvest,  when you allow other people's indifference, hatred, bitterness, rejection, or any bad feelings towards you, causing you to sow seeds from the flesh, the same feelings back to them.  Change your harvest by doing only to others as you would have them do to you.  It is your harvest after all!  Do not look at what you are getting from that person, but look with the eyes of the harvest, look beyond with My eyes, knowing that I Am multiplying your seeds sown.  Good "Spirit" seeds bring good "Spirit" harvest.  It is an eternal investment not a momentary pleasure of "justifiable feelings".  You have everything necessary to change your harvest, it is in your seed sown.  You choose.
     When he finished speaking to me.  I took a breathe and blew upon the dilapidated row and it begin to grow as if in a fast motion.  Blooms came up, colors spread all around.  The smells were aromatic and intoxicating, this row exceled all the rest.  At the same time every other row benefited from the growth of this one!
Love,

Pastor D.

You are NOT Alone....this one is needed for someone today. I bet its YOU!

 When You Hurt, You Are Not Alone

HEBREWS 13:5 ESV
5 . . . he has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

Jesus understands. He knows how it feels to be betrayed,
abandoned, hated. Jesus knows what it feels like to hurt.

He lived in a body just like you have. He was just as human as
you are.

HEBREWS 4:15 ESV
15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize
with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been
tempted as we are, yet without sin.

Some people hurt so badly that they feel it might give them
some relief if others felt what they felt. Probably many people
hurt others in an unconscious attempt to at least have someone
understand the pain they are feeling.

But you are NEVER alone when you are feeling hurt. Jesus
promised He would NEVER leave you or forsake you. He is there
with you, and He understands. He is not there to condemn you,
but to help you as much as you will allow Him to help you.

Too often when people are hurt they mistakenly blame God
instead of realizing He did not cause their pain but is there
to help them and heal their hurt. Just like a good parent is
there to comfort and take care of their child, so God is with
us.

Some might say, "If God really is with me, then why did this
bad thing happen to me in the first place?" or "If God is with
me, then why does He not just automatically fix everything and
make every bad thing go away?"

We may not know all the answers to those questions, but we know
there are answers. And we know that God loves us more than we
can even understand because He proved it at Calvary on the
cross.

So you can trust God. He loves you. He is with you now, and He
will be with you tomorrow.

SAY THIS: No matter what I face, I will never have to face it
alone, for Jesus is with me.

Don't go to the Dark Side

I am posting more about this later today but many Standers and mates seem to check on their mates
by using Facebook or Blog pages etc.

You are only harming yourself when you peek at what your mate in the far country is currently up to during their
waywardness. Keep in mind that this is all temp. and the God almighty who called you to STAND for this mate
is watching your lack of faith and leaning to YOUR own understanding trying to fix it. The Holy Spirit doesnt need your assistance other than prayers.

There are MANY stories of harm hurt and danger that can result from such a thing. I am warning you now to turn your eyes back on Jesus who is in EVERY DETAIL right now even if you dont see it in the natural.

Dont give up or give in to look at those hurtful pictures. Rely on the Lord thru the Holy Spirit to clue you in.
As a matter of fact stop using your kids (no matter what age they are) to be your messenger. Dont you see how harmful and hurtful that is to them? They like many of you had no choice in the matter with the outcome of the seperation, divorce or pending divorce. The Storm hit and affected them in many ways too.
Pray a hedge of protection prayer over them right now. Claim VICTORY over your family and TRUST!

Dont continue to put your hands in the mix. You'll spoil the final product. Gods working on EVERY ingredient
to put in that Celebration Cake for you. He doesnt need extra hands. Just TRUST HIM and Obey!

Stand on some Scriptures if He hasnt already given them to you. Amen

I will be posting some that helped carry me through as well.

God Bless and dont go to that darkside...one of you has already done so and look what its done.
You owe it to your family to stay on TRACK with God and not look to the left or to the right.
They need a STRONG fighter in the Lord and that would be YOU!

STAY PRAYED UP! He is more than ABLE to pull you through if you stop leaning to your own understanding in many of these areas. SIMPLY TRUST HIM!


What is FAITH? Whats in His Word for you daily as His promises endure forever.
Dig deep to go higher. We are praying for you ALL in this very hour.

In His Service,

Sharon & Prayer Partners

We are CALLED to Reconciliation...its in the Bible if you READ IT!

The Message Of Reconciliation

2 CORINTHIANS 5:19 NIV
19 that God was
reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not
counting men's sins against
them. And he has committed to us
the message of reconciliation.

The
Good News is about reconciliation between God and man.
Jesus Christ
accomplished it.

Mankind was estranged from God. We had gone our own way,
were
lost, and couldn't find our way back to fellowship with
God.
Fortunately, God loved us and did something to help us.

Two
extremely important ideas are presented in the above verse.

First, God is
not holding people's sins against them! As far as
God is concerned, Christ's
sacrifice paid the penalty for all
sin -- and God considers the world
reconciled back to Him.

Second, this wonderful good news of what God has
done has been
committed to us. Human beings must tell it. If we don't --
it
won't be told.

People can live and die and never know the glorious
truth that
God is not holding any sins against them  -- if no one
tells
them. They need to know they are forgiven, loved by God, and
welcome
to come back into fellowship with Him through Christ.

Think about this:
God is interested in reconciliation. Not in
shutting you, or others, out. He
is inviting humanity in,
saying all is forgiven.

SAY THIS: Thank You
Father God for reconciling me and not
holding my sins against me. Please help
me to share this
message with the right people in the right way.

A God Of Second Chances

A GOD OF SECOND CHANCES - 

"God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he 
should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he 
promise and not fulfill?" Numbers 23:19

"How much time have you spent beating yourself up over what you did 
or
did not do in the past? Have you said to yourself, "I've made so 
many
mistakes, there's no way to fix it now?" Don't believe this. Our 
God
is a God of second chances. He gave second chances to Abraham, to
Jonah, and to Peter. Abraham went down to Egypt when God told him 
not
to, yet God gave him a second chance. Jonah ran away from what God 
was asking yet He showed him a way out of the belly of the whale. 
Peter denied his Savior three times but God still asked him to "feed
My sheep." 

Look at the story of the prodigal son. Don't you think that father
spent many sleepless nights replaying things he should have said or
things he should have done so that his son would not leave? Don't 
you think that every day he said to himself, "If only..." But God 
gave the father as well as the son a second chance. And He will give
you a second chance also. 

Don't condemn yourself and what you've done in the past. God 
forgives this and has put it behind Him. "As far as the east is from
the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us." 
(Psalm 103:12). Change is a process and it often takes time. God is
doing a new thing for you and you are a new person in Christ. 

"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am 
doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am
making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland." 
Isaiah 43:18-19

Yes, our God is a God of second chances and third and fourth and 
fifth. Even when we fail Him, He is good and gracious and gives us 
another opportunity. He loves us too much to leave us where we're 
at.
He wants you to be a new person in Him and He will keep picking you 
up, dusting you off and setting you on the road again, until you 
reach
His destination."

"When we were overwhelmed by sins, you forgave our transgressions."
Psalm 65: 

Tapping Into God's Power and Jehovah-Jireh God WILL Provide

Tapping Into God's Power and Jehovah-Jireh - God will provide
Tapping Into God's Power 
by Gary Carpenter 
One of the questions I am most frequently asked is, "Gary, really, how do I

tap into the power of God?" Many of these people come with desperate 
situations already upon them. Everything from having just been diagnosed
with a 
terminal disease, to imminent divorce, to imminent bankruptcy, some of them
even 
contemplating suicide. This is a serious question and I never take it
lightly. 
Oftentimes, however, when I give them the true answer to their question, it

sounds so "simplistic" to them that they become offended like Naaman the 
Syrian. Remember him? He was a powerful military leader who had leprosy. He
came 
to the prophet in Israel expecting to receive some "great word" from the 
prophet. The prophet simply told him to go dip seven times in the Jordan
River. 
Naaman became so offended by this "simplistic" instruction that he nearly 
returned to Syria without obeying the word of the Lord. Had he done so he
most 
certainly would have died a leper. Thank God he obeyed and received his
miracle 
and was healed. 
Most people that ask me the question "How do I tap into the power of God?" 
reject the answer by NEVER ACTUALLY DOING IT! All those that do it receive 
their miracle. All of those that do not do it forsake their miracle. It is
as 
simple as that. Period! 
What is the answer to their question? It can be found in the following 
verses: 
Isa 55:10-11 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and 
returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth
and 
bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall
my 
word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void,
but 
it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing 
whereto I sent it. 
There is only one way to "return God's Word unto Him" and that is by 
CONFESSING IT AS BEING PRESENT TENSE TRUTH IN YOUR LIFE! This is the faith
of our 
father Abraham. He had to begin calling himself the father of many nations 
(Calling those things which be not as though they were) long before his son
Isaac 
was ever conceived in the womb of Sarah. There simply is no separating the 
power of the Holy Spirit from the spoken Word of God! Get this; the Lord
said 
to me, "The Holy Spirit will not manifest the unspoken word of God for 
anybody...not even God the Father! The Holy Spirit would still be brooding
over the 
face of the waters today waiting for the SPOKEN Words 'Let there be
light!'" 
Jesus called the Holy Spirit the "finger of God" after He had cast out a 
devil. The Holy Spirit is the "MANIFESTER!" If people could just get a 
revelation that He only manifests the SPOKEN WORD of God, to the point that
they would 
actually begin SPEAKING the Word of God, they would soon find that they had

finally tapped into the POWER of God! 
It was as Abraham confessed the "promise" that the Holy Spirit began 
changing Abraham and Sarah's bodies at the molecular level, causing
sufficient 
change that Sarah actually began ovulating again (she was long past
menopause) and 
causing sufficient change in Abraham that he became virile again. But if 
Abraham had not been obedient to "speak the promise" as if it were already
so in 
his life ("I am the father of many nations") the Holy Spirit would NEVER 
have manifested those changes ... God's will or not! The number one way
that the 
Holy Spirit works in the earth is ...He manifests the SPOKEN Word! 
So, no matter what problems people come to me with: health, marital, 
financial, children, etc., etc., my counsel to them is always the same:
"Find two or 
three promises from the Word of God that cover your case. Begin worshipping

God for these promises and begin saying them out of your mouth as if they 
were already manifested in your life. Quit speaking the negative
circumstances, 
COMPLETELY! Keep saying about yourself what the Word says about you. The
Holy 
Spirit will manifest those promises in your life." 
That's it! Simple! Too simple for most folks to accept! Yet it is the power

of God! It works every time for those that do it! There are no exceptions! 
There are no difficulties that are too hard for the Holy Spirit! There are
no 
special cases! This always works! Period! Even those that "try it" usually 
fail because they become "weary in well doing" and quit before the
manifestation 
comes. But it will always come if they do not. It is through faith AND 
patience that we possess the promises. Amen? 
Example from mine and Sue's own lives: When we were saved and Spirit filled

many years ago I was a virtual egomaniac full of religious doctrines of
men. 
Sue was the product of the feminist movement that had vowed she would never

again let any man tell her what to do. Yikes! You talk about opposite ends
of 
the spectrum. Me full of "macho" man ego and her full of feminist
rebellion. 
Our home life was not a pretty sight, let me tell you. 
At first, we both tried to "help" each other by trying to "change" each 
other. A complete lesson in futility!!! "Can the blind lead the blind?" Had
we 
not learned the secret that I am sharing with you in this teaching, I have
no 
doubt that we would have been divorced within three to five years of our
being 
saved. We finally learned this lesson: NEITHER OF US ARE THE SAVIOR!
Neither 
of us could change "ourselves," much less the "other." We finally realized 
that if either (or both) of us were going to change, it would have to be by

the power of God HIMSELF! "How do we tap into the power of God?" was our 
question then. He taught us what I am relating to you in this lesson. 
God is so good. He not only taught us "what to do", He taught us "how" to
do 
it. For example, regarding Sue and I, He showed us from the following 
scripture that Sue and I (because we were born again) already had the "love
of God" 
within us: 
Rom 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed
abroad 
in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. 
But then He also taught us that 1 Cor 13:4-8 was the "manifestation" of 
God's love and that if we wanted the Holy Spirit to "manifest" that love in
us we 
had to do like Abraham and begin calling ourselves "already that way." Let 
me show you what I mean. Here are those verses from the Amplified Bible; 
1 Cor 13:4-8 Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is 
envious nor boils over with jealousy; is not boastful or vainglorious, does
not 
display itself haughtily. It is not conceited--arrogant and inflated with 
pride; it is not rude (unmannerly), and does not act unbecomingly. Love
[God's 
love in us] does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not

self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account
of 
the evil done to it--pays no attention to a suffered wrong. It does not
rejoice 
at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth
prevail. 
Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to 
believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all
circumstances 
and it endures everything [without weakening]. Love never fails--never
fades 
out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. 
Sue and I began confessing this passage three times a day for ourselves by 
inserting our names everywhere that you find the word "love" or "it." For 
example, I would say for Sue, 
"Sue endures long and is patient and kind; Sue never is envious nor boils 
over with jealousy. Sue is not conceited--arrogant nor inflated with pride;
Sue 
is not rude, nor unmannerly, and she does not act unbecomingly. Sue does
not 
insist on her own rights or her own way, for she is not self-seeking" .....

etc. 
Get the picture? Then, I would confess it again for myself, inserting 
myself; 
"I endure long and am patient and kind; I never am envious nor do I boil 
over with jealousy. I am not conceited--arrogant nor inflated with 
pride;"...etc. 
Morning, noon, and night ... once for her and once for myself, a total of 
six times every day. Sue was doing the same thing. We literally typed these

confessions out so we could carry them with us everywhere we went. WE DID
NOT 
CHANGE OVERNIGHT...BUT THE CHANGE DID COME! The Holy Spirit HIMSELF began 
"manifesting" this Word within us. He literally "changed" our hearts, our 
attitudes, our emotions, and our thinking to where the "love of God"
literally began 
to flow out of each of us. THIS WORKS! 
It is important that I tell you that it was not necessary for us to 
"confess" these within earshot of the other. The reference scripture says
that His 
word does not return to HIM void! The only persons that need to hear these 
confessions are us and God the Holy Ghost! Why? BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT
MANIFESTS 
THE SPOKEN WORD THAT HE HEARS COMING OUT OF OUR MOUTHS! HE IS WAITING TO 
HEAR THE SPOKEN WORD! HE WILL NOT ACT TO MANIFEST THE WORD UNTIL HE HEARS
THE 
WORD SPOKEN! 
That's the secret! SPEAK THE WORD AS IF IT WERE ALREADY, PRESENT TENSE, 
TRUTH IN YOUR LIFE! The Holy Spirit is the SPIRIT OF TRUTH! He will
MANIFEST THE 
TRUTH in your life if you do! He will not if you don't! Again, too simple
for 
most folks. God made it too easy! Most people scoff at its simplicity. Yet 
God designed it to be simple ON PURPOSE so that everybody would be able to
do 
it. 
I have found this principle to be true in every realm of life. When I 
finally began putting verses like 2 Cor 8:9, Psalm 34:10, and Philippians
4:19 in 
my mouth and began worshipping God for His WORD and began speaking those 
verses as if they were already so in my life...sure enough...the Holy Spirit
began 
MANIFESTING prosperity in my life! 
When I needed healing and I began worshipping God for the truth of His Word

and I began speaking verses like 1 Peter 2:24 and Psalms 103 as if they
were 
already so in my life...sure enough...the Holy Spirit began MANIFESTING 
health in my life! It applies to EVERYTHING; depression, doubt, fear,
rebellious 
children, prosperity, marriage, healing, etc., etc. 
2 Pet 1:3-4 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things 
that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that
hath 
called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great
and 
precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine
nature, 
having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 
"BY THESE PROMISES" we partake of everything that He has given us
pertaining 
unto LIFE AND GODLINESS! Hallelujah! I'm about to have another one of those

running fits. Glory to God! We don't have to obtain things the world's way 
which is governed by lust, but we can receive everything directly from our 
Father's hand by partaking of THESE EXCEEDING GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES!
We are 
"in the world" but not "of the world." We have a different SOURCE than the 
world has. 
Here is another important thing we had to learn concerning the confession
of 
God's Word: YOUR CONFESSION BEFORE GOD AND YOUR CONFESSION BEFORE PEOPLE 
MUST BE THE SAME! It does absolutely no good to spend time worshipping God
by 
confessing His Word over a situation and then continually say exactly the 
opposite to your friends. Remember what James said, 
James 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. 
You have to once and for all make up your mind. Is God's Word the TRUTH in
your life, or are the present circumstances the truth in your life? Which
is 
it? On what are you going to make your stand? Circumstances or God's Word?
Once you choose God's Word then you never let your mouth speak
circumstances 
contrary to what God has already said. This is very difficult on the flesh
and, 
if you are human like Sue and I, you will sometimes stumble and say the
wrong 
things when you set out to do this. Don't be discouraged. Simply repent and

begin speaking again in line with the Word of God. Eventually it will
become 
as natural to you as taking a drink of water. You won't even have to 
consciously think about it anymore, because you and the Word will have
become "one." 
Let me add one other thing. Time spent praying in other tongues helps 
shorten the "waiting" time for the manifestations of the promises. There
are many, 
many reasons why this is so but for now let me just name one of them, which

is contained in this verse: 
Rom 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not

what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh 
intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 
Let me put it like this. While we are allowing the Holy Spirit to make 
"perfect intercession" for us He "fills in the gaps" where we are ignorant.
For 
example, a person who was standing on God's promises for financial
prosperity 
might not realize that there is someone he needs to forgive for a past
wrong 
that was done to him. He might never, on his own, even think of it. But the

Holy Spirit will know to pray that he needs to forgive. Then the Holy
Spirit 
Himself will bring it to the man's mind that he needs to forgive that
person. 
Then the man can forgive and that will be one more roadblock gone on his
path 
to prosperity. See how that works? The Holy Spirit helps us "fill in the 
prayer gaps" because, quite frankly, we don't often know everything that
needs to 
be prayed...but He does! Thank God for praying in other tongues! 
Here is the Love Section from 1st Corinthians 13 again. Put your own name 
and/or the name of your spouse in the blanks. Begin making these
confessions. 
His Word will NOT return unto Him void! You are now tapping into the
unlimited 
power of Almighty God!
