FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

Galatians 5:22-26 (New King James Version)

²² But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. ²⁴ And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. ²⁵ If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. ²⁶ Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

"It is not great men who change the world,but weak men in the hands of a great GOD!!!!!!!!!"

The Bible says:

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God—Romans 3:23

Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out—Acts 3:19

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life—John 3:16

If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved—Romans 10:9

If you want a personal relationship with God and the assurance that your sins have been forgiven, here is a suggested prayer...

Father, I come to you, confessing my sin and asking for your forgiveness. I thank you, Lord, for You have promised that if I will confess my sins, You will be faithful to forgive me and cleanse me from all unrighteousness. I want to turn from my sins, and live in a way that will please You. And so I ask for your help, Lord. I ask that you give me the power through your Holy Spirit to live the right way.

I thank you that Jesus Christ died on the cross, paying the price for my sins, and then rose from the dead. I accept Him now as my Savior, my Lord, and my friend.

I also thank You, because You've said that whoever comes to You, You will in no way cast out. Thank you for giving me a new life in Christ. I surrender myself to you. Make me what you want me to be in Jesus' name. Amen.

Philippians 3:7-12 (New King James Version)

⁷ But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. ⁸ Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ ⁹ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; ¹⁰ that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, ¹¹ if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.¹² Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.

Romanos 8:28-30

	Rom 8:28	Y sabemos que a los que aman a Dios, todas las cosas les ayudan a bien, esto es, a los que conforme a su propósito son llamados.
	Rom 8:29	Porque a los que antes conoció, también los predestinó para que fuesen hechos conformes a la imagen de su Hijo, para que él sea el primogénito entre muchos hermanos.
	Rom 8:30	Y a los que predestinó, a éstos también llamó; y a los que llamó, a éstos también justificó; y a los que justificó, a éstos también glorificó.

"JESUS PAID IT ALL"

1. I hear the Savior say,
   “Thy strength indeed is small;
   Child of weakness, watch and pray,
   Find in Me thine all in all.”
   • Refrain:
     Jesus paid it all,
     All to Him I owe;
     Sin had left a crimson stain,
     He washed it white as snow.
2. For nothing good have I
   Whereby Thy grace to claim;
   I’ll wash my garments white
   In the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb.
3. And now complete in Him,
   My robe, His righteousness,
   Close sheltered ’neath His side,
   I am divinely blest.
4. Lord, now indeed I find
   Thy pow’r, and Thine alone,
   Can change the leper’s spots
   And melt the heart of stone.
5. When from my dying bed
   My ransomed soul shall rise,
   “Jesus died my soul to save,”
   Shall rend the vaulted skies.
6. And when before the throne
   I stand in Him complete,
   I’ll lay my trophies down,
   All down at Jesus’ feet.

Romans 1:16

"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek."

ISAIAH 6:8

"Also I heard the voice of the LORD,saying:"Whom shall I send,And who will go for Us?"Then I said,"Here [am] I! Send me."

The Lord is moving in mighty ways. There will be an outreach in Savannah at Forsythe Park on Aug. 29th.
Thank You God for this opportunity for the Kingdom of God.... to bring people to the saving grace of Jesus Christ and to bring down the walls of denominations and division amongst the Body of Christ. Please be in prayer for this event. Kingdom in the Park. That the harvest will be plentiful!

Please pray for myself the others who yearn to return to Peru this year and minister to our Brothers and Sisters in Christ Jesus and to share the love and truth of Jesus with those who are lost. We are still trying to raise funds for the mission trip and to get our schedules in order.

God has also placed a burden in my heart for the peoples of Africa. I have an opportunity to join Pastor Wes from Far Reaching Ministries in the Sudan next year. Please be in prayer that the Lord will provide the funds for me to be able to go and share the gospel, to minister to the people and for the Lord to open the doors for me to be able to go and that I will be able to get into the Sudan from Malawi.

I appreciate your prayers and your support. As God starts opening doors of opportunity for myself and my family to serve Him in the mission field.
The time is growing short. Today, ask God to open your eyes and heart to share the reason for your hope with someone who is lost and hurting.... to share God's gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. May God give us the Spirit of Boldness to share Jesus both in words and actions.
"Here i am LORD send me!!"
