Everyone wants Greencards, but getting one is like being put on parole by the US government; you get hassled if your out of country more than a year.

Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Hebrews 12:1

“Since we are surrounded by so many examples of faith, we must get rid of everything that slows us down, especially sin that distracts us. We must run the race that lies ahead of us and never give up.”

-Gods Word Translation

Knowing the Word is like gasoline to your spiritual engine. The baptism of the Holy is like changing out for rocket engines with unlimited fuel.

To be a follower of Jesus, we’ve really got to have the Power And Presence of God Almighty in our lives.  I am really enjoying studying and preaching on the P&P.  We’ve got to have the Power and Presence.  Very glad to see the people enjoying the messages as much as I have delivering God’s Word.

The next message I will be sharing on Powerful Prayers for Daily Power.  Buckle up for a great ride!

I just read a blog post of a pastor that I used to listen to a bit.  After reading it, I must say I am a bit disgusted.  He said in his post

I am fine with a Christian voting for Mitt Romney if they feel that action best reflects their commitment to follow Jesus Christ. I know sincere Christians who will do this.

I am fine with a Christian voting for Barack Obama if they feel that action best reflects their commitment to follow Jesus Christ. I know sincere Christians who will do this.

I am fine with a Christian choosing not to vote because they don’t like any of the options and view it as inconsistent with truly believing that Jesus is Lord. I know sincere Christians who will do this.

This is pathetic advice from a pastor.  Americans have freedom because our forefathers won it when the first believers left England to escape persecution.  If we want to keep that freedom we must keep acting otherwise we will lose what we have.  We must

• Pray for our political leaders to make decisions that are true and just.
• Pray for peace in our nation
• Vote for godly people who know what they are doing.  Don’t just vote for someone who says they are a “Christian”.  (The ideal politician is a smart believer like Daniel who has a passion for God and has the experience to support the spiritual strength)
• Pray that God will move on the hearts of our nation to put people into office who have open hearts that will not hinder the advancement of God’s Kingdom.

2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice;

But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.

Politicians who work against God will suppress the citizens.  There are no perfect candidates that’s why we must pray and act.

A dear friend took me to his church in Singapore.  Was very nice to visit a Spirit-filled Church in Singapore.  It was a prayer meeting so I pictured a handful of believers.  There must have been 1,500 people praying over their church, their pastor, their nation.  Trinity Christian Centre was refreshing!

A praying church is a worshipping church.  A worshipping church is a world-changing church.
