What We Say Really Does Matter!

 

Today I Choose to Speak Life Over Myself - How About You?

What We Say Really Does Matter!     I have just got to share with you the goodness of God! Today we went to help someone with their health insurance. The woman had been ill for many long months and was weary from all the pain. When she explained what she had been through, I heard her speaking words that are contrary to her healing.  We know that we are what we speak. We have been given the power of life and death and it's in our mouth! Look at this...  Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat it's fruit. (Proverbs 18:20)  This clearly shows us that it is important what we say. And what we say must line up with what we believe. Before we prayed for her, we explained this principle to her and helped her see that she is saying what the Bible says about healing, but then in another moment she questions it, asking, "Why am I not healed yet?" This shows that she didn't really receive her healing, and if she did, she made it null and void by her words.  We prayed over her and cancelled every word curse that had been spoken over her, either by herself or others around her. She had her faith level high believing that when we prayed, Jesus would touch her. It was wonderful to see her countenance change to one of joy by the time we left. She had a new expectation that she has received her healing, and will continue thanking Jesus all the way up until she sees it actually manifest! That was exciting to see!  Until we see the victory over the battle, the healing in our body, the restoration of our family and/or finances, we must keep our faith tank on full! We can't let anything bring us back down. We can remember this song and better yet, this verse that clearly shows us what our heart posture should be...  Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength. (Nehemiah 8:10)  Check out this song too: Trading My Sorrows  Today as I sat with the Lord, He opened my heart up and it felt like He brought me through all the battles I have fought since surrendering to Him and He refreshed my soul by showing me afresh how good, loving, kind, faithful and wonderful He is. Coming home from that appointment today, I was feeling so blessed, and suddenly Holy Spirit brought me that song! My heart just rejoices in God my Savior. That's why I write!  Be blessed, healed and rejoice because the victory is yours! Just say it and believe it and receive it!  Have a wonderful week and always let us know how we can be praying for or with you!  This blog is reaching people all over the world! God is sending His Word out to the nations! Be blessed and filled dear friend and pass this message along to others.  We love you so much!  Love and blessings!

SPEAK TO THE STORM!

 

PEACE! BE STILL!

SPEAK TO THE STORM!     When we look at a picture like this one, it can seem pretty big and overwhelming, right? Let's imagine for a moment what the disciples must have felt like when they were with Jesus in a boat and a mighty storm developed;  On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?”  Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. But He said to them, “Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?” And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, “Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!” (Mark 4:35-41)  Oh that we would have this kind of faith! Not only against the current weather system that we see headed our way, but in every storm that we face in life! Jesus was showing them an example of what they themselves could do. He came to earth to show us how we can manage the storms and trials that we face. Here's another encouraging verse I just read this morning;  Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. (John 14:27)  Today, as we look outside our windows, we may see a little rain and wind, but we can speak to that storm in full assurance of faith that our words have the power to speak life and peace over the state of Florida! We also have that same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead living inside of us to take authority over every evil thing that tries to set itself up against us.  Today, may we all remember who we are in Christ and stand up to this evil storm and say No! In Jesus Name, we rebuke you satan and this storm must stop in Jesus Name! We know who we are in Christ and we remember that no weapon that forms against us will prosper for we are the children of the Most High God! We dwell in the secret place of the Almighty and we abide in the shadow of His wings. He will deliver us from trouble! (See all of Psalm 91)  Now that's something to shout His praises about! Today be encouraged and strengthened with all might in the inner man by His Spirit. Do not fear! Our God is with us to help us!

Seeking God's Will - Waiting on His Timing

 

We have all had lessons in understanding how important patience is, though that's not the title of this message, but it's the core to the title. Seeking God's will is of the utmost importance, and next, it's being patient enough to wait on His perfect timing for that.  Look at this;  Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies. Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and such as breathe out violence.  I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord! (Psalm 27:11-14)  There are many verses in the Bible that tell us to seek God and then to wait on Him, but how often do we really do that? Most of us get impatient or want it our own way, and that always leads to troubles and a much lesser turnout than it would have if we had waited on the Lord for His always better plan.  I think this is a time when we as Jesus followers are being called to action to seek God's face diligently everyday and depend on Him more than ever. He is coming soon and we need to be closer to Him than ever before and 100% dependent on His good plans for us. When I look back at how things went when I sought God in my life's decisions, it went very well. Hit the knees and cry out to Him, and then wait.  The times when I hurried through things, it never seemed to work out as well. This was the message the Lord placed on my heart today to share. May I be an encourager for you today to go back to what works? Let's get back to seeking Him and then trusting that He is working it all out for our good because we love Him and are the called according to His purpose.  Have a wonderful week and always let us know how we can be praying for or with you!  This blog is reaching people all over the world! God is sending His Word out to the nations! Be blessed and filled dear friend and pass this message along to others.  We love you so much!  Love and blessings! Denny & Hanny Stearns

Church on The Spot!

 

Witness Where You Are

Church on the Spot!     This past week was an awesome move of God in the people we have been working with! At a weekend home show here in Ft. Myers, we had the privilege of working with a very nice man that we have done several events with over the past many months. I began witnessing to him, and little by little, he listened and was open to hear the gospel. I could see he has hurt in his heart, and that he was tender and open to hear the good news about a loving relationship with Jesus. We have a wonderful picture of me talking with him, but for privacy sake, I am not including it here. We were working with him greeting seniors all day Saturday and Sunday this past weekend. Every time we had some quiet time, I just kept talking with him. It was awesome to see how Holy Spirit was touching him and bringing him to tears. (And me!) One thing led to another and he said he was open to giving his life to Jesus. He assured me that he was taking this very seriously. We had other encounters with people that were very touching, and we could see the Lord really moving. We had gone to early church service Sunday and then rushed over to our event and we could immediately see God answering prayers. The whole point this week is to remember to take advantage of every situation we may find ourselves in. Many times, leading someone to Jesus isn't just a "one and done" encounter. It is a delicate process of allowing the Lord to "pull the plug" in a person's heart by explaining things and answering questions. As we finished up our long weekend, we were more than in awe of what God had done. Our work does have to do with helping seniors with their health insurance plans, but ultimately, we always look to bring Jesus into the conversation and watch what the Lord will do. Here is what the Bible tells us to do, no matter where we are at: And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. (mark 16:15) Be encouraged to get out there in the days to come and make a difference that could change somebody's eternity! Your "world" is wherever you are.

How Can We Help Others Best?

 

How Can We help Others Best? How many times have you had someone you love very much come to you for help in a very serious situation? If you are like most of us, it has happened many times. So often we can allow our feelings and deep emotions take over and cause us to want to step in to help perhaps a bit more than we should. We know that God works through people. He doesn't drop things out of heaven. But He did send us Holy Spirit to help us have wisdom. The Bible tells us if we lack wisdom we should ask, and God will undoubtedly give it. That's why Holy Spirit is called our Helper and Counselor. What happens when we do more than we should in a given situation? We can overstep our bounds and get in God's way of helping someone in a way that would have turned out better if we had left it to the Lord. They may have a great need, but God says He will meet all those needs... And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Phil. 4:19) I have been through many situations where loved ones have been concerned and I longed to do more to help, but I knew I had to step back and call on the Lord, and then trust Him to handle it. Look at this... Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” (Psalm 50:15) This week we had an opportunity to reach out and help a dear friend that's very close to us and somewhat elderly. We did what the Lord led us to do, and then we were alerted about when to step back and allow her to call on the Lord for herself. He promises that when someone calls on Him and trusts Him to help, He will. Our God is rich in mercy and compassion. When we don't know what else to do, or what part we should have in all of it, give it to God. Then and only then will He get involved and do what only He can do. This will also remove the stress and pressure from our lives as we fully depend on Him. If we are helping orphans and widows, as the Bible says, that's great. Family members present their own unique needs and situations. Let's all remember to go to God for wisdom and instruction and then watch Him do the miracles only He is good at! Have a blessed week.
