Greetings! For months, I have been watching the speeches, actions, and interactions of the various candidates for both the American Democratic and Republican parties. It has been one of the most crass cycles I have seen. First and foremost, I am a follower of Jesus. If we want our nation to continue to prosper, whomever we select for office must either know Jesus, or have a heart that is open to hearing God’s voice when we pray for him/her.

I was originally excited about the medical doctor who was running for the office of president of the United States as he seemed to demonstrate godly principles at the time that we are unaccustomed to seeing with any elected officials. However, running for office is one thing, but being able to clearly communicate your ideas, your logic, and be consistent in making the right choices is essential part of any leader we support. The most important thing is being able to implement those positive and productive ideas.

We see in the Old Testament of the Bible that bad leaders took to the nation of Israel in the wrong direction and defeat, while under godly leaders Israel prospered, grew in positive influence as a nation, and peace prevailed in those times of good leadership.

In watching the candidates since December, I have concluded that Senator Ted Cruz is the best possible candidate for the United States President in 2016. He knows and lives by the US constitution, he is pro-life, is not afraid to be spurned by politicians for standing up for the citizens, and is an amazing communicator with ideas that we can implement. These are the ideas brought America to where we are now.

I am pleased to endorse Senator Ted Cruz for the 45th President of the United States. He is our best choice and as believers we need to support those who are either godly or open hearts to godly direction.

God bless America and we pray the people were turn back to Him through us and by the power of His Holy Spirit.

Over the last two weeks I’ve been in three countries and some 7 cities. I got half a service in at Victory Word Center nearly two weeks ago, but I missed church last week as I was in Oregon.

Had some great prayer times in both Florida and Oregon, but man, I hate to miss church. I’m stoked to be at Victory tomorrow. As I think about tomorrow I am reminded of those people that we see every week. They rock!  What a blessing and what an amazing church family.

I also think about those who just show up just 2 or 3 times a month. I just don’t get why it is not their priority to be in Gods house every Sunday.

If you are a Jesus person, make it your priority to get into the Lords House every week. I tell you this, when you make the Lord s Day, His day and commit to being there no matter what happens, you will begin to connect with God and HIS Kingdom. When you do that, Watch out!

• You will see your family strengthened
• Financial breakthroughs
• healing and health in your bodies
• Joy you can’t explain
• Salvationist of your loved ones
• Yourself knowing the voice of God and having and having wisdom for every situation

Get into Gods house this weekend. Make The Lord’s day the Lord DAY for your whole family.

Luke 11:20 (GWT)

But if I force out demons with the help of God’s power, then God’s kingdom has come to you.

Luke 11:9-13 (GWTransl)
“So I tell you to ask, and you will receive. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened for you. Everyone who asks will receive. The one who searches will find, and for the person who knocks, the door will be opened.
“If your child asks you, his father, for a fish, would you give him a snake instead? Or if your child asks you for an egg, would you give him a scorpion? Even though you’re evil, you know how to give good gifts to your children. So how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”

Luke 11:2-4 (NKJV Strong’s,)

So He said to them, “When you pray, say:

Our Father in heaven,

Hallowed be Your name.

Your kingdom come.

Your will be done

On earth as it is in heaven.

Give us day by day our daily bread.

And forgive us our sins,

For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.

And do not lead us into temptation,

But deliver us from the evil one.”

Of course it’s okay to recite the prayer Jesus taught those following. It’s very good. 

Luke 5:32 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

Luke 5:9-11 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)
For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken;

and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men.”

So when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all and followed Him.

Mark 12:41-44 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)
The Widow’s Two Mites

Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money into the treasury. And many who were rich put in much.

Then one poor widow came and threw in two mites, which make a quadrans.

So He called His disciples to Himself and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury;

for they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had, her whole livelihood.”

Mark 12:29-31 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.

And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”

Love God and love people.
