Pastor Jeremiah
A Matter Of The
Heart
Heart:
1. the whole personality including emotional functions or
traits.
2. the emotional or moral as distinguished from the
intellectual nature.
Man can renew his mind according to
Romans
12:1 but only God can give you a new
heart.
(Ezekiel 36:26 and Jeremiah 24:7)
I can speak to your mind but only
God can
speak to your heart.
(To think is not to know.
To know is not to
think.
You think in your mind but you know in
your heart.)
I think God loves me.
I know God
loves me.
(To think is doubt but to know is
faith.)
Our first impression of others is a
reaction of
the mind and not a response of the
heart.
Thoughts are perceived in the mind
but action
is conceived in the heart.
None of us are there yet.
We must keep
pressing on.
Philippians 3:14
- I press
toward the
mark for the
prize of the high calling of God in Christ
Jesus.
Two doors
The first one you can open or keep it closed.
The second door you can only walk through.
Revelation 3:20
- Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice,
and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and
he with me.
The first door is your heart. You have to let God in and that
is fellowship.
Revelation 3:8
- I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and
noman can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast
kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
The second door is God’s heart. Walk through this door and
that is communion.

If you need prayer contact Karen Page
or Margie Jasper or any member of the Twelve Disciples or the
Servant Team
Prayer Ministry
The one thing that holds this ministry and our work together is our
prayer ministry headed up by Karen Page and the prayer team known as
the Twelve Disciples.
Did you know that we hold a noon prayer meeting every
Wednesday at the location of the weekly Thursday meeting?
Did you know that our prayer register has over 300 requests
to date? Each of the
names is called out to the Lord everyday not just on Wednesday.
It is a humbling thing to call out 300 names to the Lord
knowing that you need as much prayer as any of these names.
Many people will be touched by the Lord through Hands Up
Ministry who otherwise might never attend church. |

INVESTMENT FOR AN ETERNITY
By
Tom Meadows
There has been a change on the timing of this trip.
Due to lack of financial response the trip has been cancelled
until we can find another host church.
Many things have happened in recent days and weeks that has caused
the
Hands Up Ministry is the Lord's ministry and I pray that He will
revive those who have become less enthusiastic about representing
Him and serving Him at Philip Morris. I also pray for His
overshadowing anointing on those who still choose to carry the
Banner Of Christ at PM even if there is only one or two at a
meeting. Every opportunity that the Lord gives us is a
blessing. Don't throw away your blessings.
Since we have started a
new year in 2008, the Lord has said "Suffering In 2008 - God
Has A Purpose". Once again I will repeat the quote on our main
website page. "If you cannot walk in His sufferings, the how
can you walk in His Glory?"
The
next church will be our
third church that we have been blessed to build on the mission
field. Is God great?
How great is your God.
Pray for our churches there:
El
Be missions minded not absent minded.

We would hope that we as a ministry can meet the needs of deserving
yet unfortunate children in
There were several HUMMERS who sacrificed in 2007 and I pray that
the Lord has blessed you in 2008. Nothing that is done in the name
of Jesus is free but it is priceless.
God Bless you and thank you to all who will contribute to the
success of this mission.
What will you give Jesus for His birthday in
2008?

Why Missions
The command is to go.
You will never go until you believe that God has broken through your
mind and captured your heart.
You see Jesus didn’t “have to” go to
The Great Commission
Matthew 28
18
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto
me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach
all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the
Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe
all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you
alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
The Reason of the Commission
Romans 10
The Power of the Commission
Acts 1
7
And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the
seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. 8
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon
you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in
|
(Why Missions
continued)
The Season of the Commission
Haggai 1
2
Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time
is not come, the time that the LORD’s house should be built. 3
Then came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying, 4
Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your ceiled houses, and this
house lie waste? 5 Now therefore thus saith the LORD of
hosts; Consider your ways. 6 Ye have sown much, and bring
in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not
filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he
that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.
7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.
8 Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house;
and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the
LORD.
The Challenge of the Commission
Isaiah 6
5
Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of
unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips:
for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. 6
Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his
hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar: 7
And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy
lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. 8
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and
who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. 9
And he said, Go

The Cross Makes The Difference
Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,
there will always be sunshine, after the rain....
Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall;
But God's always ready, to answer your call....
He knows every heartache, sees every tear,
a word from His lips, can calm every fear...
Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night,
But suddenly vanish, by dawn's early light...
The Savior is waiting, somewhere above,
to give you His grace, and send you His love.
|
(The Cross Makes
The Difference continued)
Awesome!! We
complain about the cross we bear but don't realize it is preparing
us for the dip in the road that God can see and we cannot.
