Faith is Easy, Patience is Tough

Greetings Dear Friends,



It has been a while since my last blog. Sorry for the delay. I now have an awesome website that has fired me up about my blog. My life has been busy for the last couple of years. I have ministered in Nine (9) Nations including Israel. I had the privilege of preaching in the upper room. Wow! What a time. I also preached for a missionary while there.



Things are exciting. A dear friend of mine, Dr. David Fuller made a statement to me the other day; he said with technology the way it is it would be a sin not to utilize it for the Kingdom of God. I can say amen because about thirty nations have visited my website in the last two months. I am about to have Audio Preaching and it is great to know that people from China, Russia and all the other nations of the World will be able to hear the Good News twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.



And now to my thought. You will be able to listen in a few days to a sermon on my website called "Faith is Easy, Patience is tough. I preach it everywhere I go. It is easy to believe in God. You would have to be on a mission to not believe in him. Psalms 19 says; "the heavens declare the Glory of God. Someone called the Stars, "the preachers of the sky". How true. As intelligent as human beings are supposed to be, it takes an object millions of light years away to admit and promote God. We humans are not as smart as we think we are. It's easy to believe in God.



What is hard is going through tribulation and surviving long enough to say "I know that my Redeemer liveth". The word of God says "Tribulation worketh patience, patience, experience and experience hope. You don't have to do one thing to get faith it is measured out to all men, but the only way you get patience, experience and hope to obtain the promises is through tribulation. Don't curse your trials, embrace them because it is the only way you can truly grow in God.



Dear friends, I know this is not a popular message in a world that only wants to hear prosperity messages of clean white sheets, new cars, and Lot's of money. I'm all for that but I want to go to heaven more than anything else. We must be honest. Trials come and my dear friend David Fuller says it like this, "don't curse your trials".



Let's not curse the darkness but let God shine a light through it. In John 1:5 the bible says...and the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. The original Greek says it like this.....the light blasted into the darkness and the darkness could not wrestle it down. Let the darkness in your life blind the devil.



Blessings
