GOD WOULD LIKE THAT!!

New Feature starting this week! To listen to the messages, as well as read them, click on the "play" button above.

As the Apostle Paul greeted the church at Corinth, let me address you. II Corinthians 1:2-3:

“Grace be to you and peace from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort.”

Everyone is welcome in this, your 24/7, week long online church service. If you have entered into this place, you have been lifted up to God in prayer. How can I say that? Because it is true, my friends. Everyday I pray for every prayer request and for everyone who looks in and reads the anointed message for the week. Do you need salvation from your sins? I am praying for you. Do you need a job? I am praying for you. Do you need finances to pay your bills? I am praying for you. Do you need help in your marriage? I am praying for you. Do you need physical healing for your body? I am praying for you. Do you need mental healing such as anxiety, depression and other forms of mental problems? Yes, my friends, Bro. Bob prays for you each and everyday.

This online ministry is dedicated to helping you. We preach the only one-hundred percent solution to any and every problem of life that you may have and that solution is Jesus Christ and Him crucified. As Paul stated in the above scripture, God is the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort. Does anyone out there need the mercy of God in your life? Truth be known, we all do, don't we? Anyone need comfort in your situation of life? Then you need God, my friends. Man can't give you the comfort that the God of all comfort can. That comfort will come only if you will or have accepted God's only begotten Son as Lord and Savior of your life.

This ministry wants you to have a beautiful life on this earth and beyond. Salvation (eternal life), physical and mental healings and deliverance from demonic oppression are all available to you through Jesus Christ. You might say “Bro. Bob, I am saved or born-again, but it doesn't seem that too much is different. What is wrong? I don't want to be a hypocrite. I feel that I love God, but I seem to keep talking and acting the same as I always did. What is the problem? What can I do about it?” To be honest, I would need to talk with you personally to find out what your true situation is, but in general, I will address two possibilities.

One: When you thought you gave your life to Christ you did it out of emotion or pressure, or to please a loved one or friend. You said the “sinner's prayer” but there was not a real conviction of sin or even a real belief that God raised Jesus from the dead and that Jesus died as a substitute for you. You talked of repentance from sin, knowing you would not turn away from it. It seemed real because you cried or felt better, but in fact, there was no conversion at all. There is good and bad news in this possibility. The good news is, you are not a hypocrite. You are just exactly what you were before this experience and that is also the bad news. You are still lost and dead spiritually. To put it bluntly, you are still on your own. Of course, this is still subject to change, my friend. Salvation is a very sincere experience, but you must be sincere to receive it. I believe God is reaching out to you right now through this online church. I believe if God was not urging you to come to Him, you would not be here. God loves you and wants you to come to Him just as you are, but no more games.

Salvation is a life changing experience...a life changing experience for the better. God's desires will become your desires and He will equip you to make the change using His strength. Now!! If this is you I'm talking to, e-mail me today at BrotherBob@TheSpiritofWisdom.org. I will counsel you and lead you to Jesus or you may contact your local pastor and tell him you need Jesus and ask him to help you. May God bless you and may you come to Him.

The second possibility is a better option, but still needs work. When you were drawn by the Spirit of God to accept the gift of salvation that God offers you through His Son Jesus, you may have truly done these things: You may have asked God to forgive your sins. You have indicated true repentance and asked God to cleanse you. You have asked Jesus into your heart and have confessed Jesus as Lord of your life. As much as you can, you believe in your heart God raised Jesus from the dead as a perfect substitute for you, the perfect sacrifice for your sin. You truly know God has saved you. God has given you the desire to be baptized and is giving you the desires of your heart. In other words, God's desires will become your desires. So why are you so perplexed? Remember the original question? Why, if sincerely saved, do you find it so difficult to change habits, lifestyles, thoughts, desires and so forth? One reason may be you need to renew your mind to the Word of God. Find out through the direction Book of life how to live the life of a true believer and be willing to do it. Paul puts it best in his letter to the believers in Rome. Please turn with me to Romans 12:1-2.

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: But be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

Also turn to Ephesians 4:22-24.

“That ye put off concerning the former conversation, the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.”

There it is, my friends. Renew your mind to the Word of God. Speak what God speaks. Before salvation you may have thought adultery was okay, yet God says it isn't – so you say the same. Present yourself as God would present you. Do not delight yourself in sin anymore. You don't have to, you know. As a child of God, you have dominion or control over sin. Impure and lustful thoughts and pornography no longer control you, you control them. Addictions have no dominion over you, you have dominion over them. You are now free to be free from sin. Do not be ashamed of your new found freedom and liberty in Christ. Tell everyone you know. Live life with gusto in Jesus. God would like that!! He really would!!

God Bless You,
Bro. Bob

STIR UP YOUR REMEMBRANCE

Thank you Lord for this day of life. Today is the day of salvation and we will live and abide in it. We will live in all the benefits, but we will also live in all of the accountability. Yes, Lord, we say yes to You!! Because of Your grace, mercy, and love given to us by our acceptance of your Son Jesus Christ of Nazareth, we can truly say we are blessed and we will give forth that blessing to others. You are worthy of all praise, Amen.

Welcome to all who enter into this, your 24/7 week long online church service. Everyone, and I do truly mean everyone, is welcome in this place. I hope you were able to pray the above prayer with me. God is a good God and He loves you so much.

I've been thinking all week about the love of God and how He brought me out of darkness into the light. One day I was lost, heading in a direct path to eternal separation from God. I had heard about God all my life from a praying mother, but I had in fact, chosen on purpose to reject Him. I filled my life with all the things of the world; alcohol, drugs, sex, money and philosophies of men. But, there was always an emptiness in me. There was always a nagging voice of despair, loneliness and a sense of emptiness that accompanied me no matter how much people liked me. No matter how many parties or so called 'good times' I thought I was having.

As a young child I would see preachers like Oral Roberts, A.A.Allen and Rex Humbard on television. They would preach about a saving, healing, delivering God. I thought I was just watching them because I liked good speakers. Little did I know, God was calling me to Him. I went from childhood to adulthood rejecting God time and time again, but God would not let me go. Thank you Lord. My rejection of God and His ways led to many disasters; alcoholism, the loss of a marriage, car wrecks, financial distress and bouts with depression. My friends, sin and not having God in your life will always take you further into darkness than you will ever care to go.

It is so true that the god of this world (Satan) has only one mission, and that is to keep us from giving our life to God. He is here to steal, kill and destroy you. John 10:10-11 explains this well. Jesus speaking:

“The thief (Satan) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: The good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.”

Abundant life takes you out of eternal death and separation from God, and places you into the family of God forever and ever. God does not just desire that you be His creation, but that you become an adopted son or daughter; a member of the Holy family of God. That is how much God loves you.

You might say, “Bro. Bob, why are you telling us these things?” The answer, my friends, is because I am hoping to bring remembrance to you about where you were before accepting Jesus into your life and where you are today. By expressing my remembrance, I hope to magnify yours, praise God.!! Turn to II Peter 1:12.

“Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though you know them, and be established in the present truth.”

What is this present truth, my friends? It is Jesus and Him crucified on the cross, that we may live in Him and Him in us and have salvation from our past, present and future sin. It is forgiveness through the perfect sacrifice of the shed blood of Jesus and through no other thing or person that saves and completes us.

In 1976 on a Fall night, I was watching a preacher on TV. Not because I desired to hear about God, but to make fun of him. I remember the man of God calling out healings that were taking place during the telecast. I had a beer in one hand and was laughing at this preacher when all of a sudden he said “I believe God wants to save someone right now. Yes it is you.” I thought, not me!! The preacher then said “You may stay sitting or kneeled down and say this prayer with me.” My friends, there I was all alone in that living room and I found myself slipping off the couch onto one knee, still clutching that beer tightly, Satan's last grip on my life, or so it seemed. I caught myself and jumped up and just as I did, the preacher said “No, no, it's all right kneel back down, God is going to save you right now.” That night, right then and there, I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior and I was born again by the Spirit of God. I now was a new creature in Christ Jesus!! I was free at last, free at last. There is a scripture that describes this, II Corinthians 5:17-18.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: Old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new and all things are of God who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation.”

One thing is for sure, my friends, Bro. Bob could never state it any more clearly than the above scripture. I was turned upside down and inside out. I knew that I knew, that I knew that I was and that I am saved. God is my Father, Jesus is not only my Savior and Lord, but He is my elder brother.

To be sure, the change was instant, but I am still a work in progress as we all are. However, I have this assucrance through the Word of God, Hebrews 12:2.

“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Yes, my assurance is in Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of my faith as He is yours, my good, believing friends. God is not finished with us yet, is He? Thank you Lord for being willing to forgive us when we fall, yet come back to You with repentance and a contrite spirit. Wow!! What an annointing there is on this message, my friends. I'm asking you to stir up your remembrance today. E-mail me and share with me your salvation experience. We will publish some of your testimonies with the online church family to encourage and inspire their own faith.

God is such a good God. The song “Amazing Grace” stands tall in my spirit all the time. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now I'm found, was blind but now I see..... When we've been there ten-thousand years, bright shining as the sun, we've no less days to sing God's praise than when we first begun. Thank you so much, my Lord for your love, grace and mercy we have received through your Son Jesus Christ.

Anyone out there who wants this salvation I've talked about, please e-mail me at BrotherBob@TheSpiritofWisdom.org. I promise to get back with you and help you with your decision.

God Bless you,
Bro. Bob

Home is Where Your Heart is

We have exciting news for you this week. We have a guest minister of the Gospel to share with you what God has laid on his heart. We know you will be well taught and inspired. Pastor David Dobbins is an associate pastor at a full Gospel church in New Jersey. He is a graduate of Rhema Bible Training Center in Broken Arrow, Ok. Most importantly, he is filled with the spirit of God and a true servant of the Heavenly Father.

Before we present Pastor David, let me welcome you to your 24/7 week-long online church service. Everyone is welcome to this place. Now, let me present Pastor David.

Preach the Word, Pastor Dave!!

Home is where your heart is!

It’s a privilege to be with you today. I believe that God has something for each one of you. I would like you to grab your Bible, a cup of Joe or what ever you might like to drink and let’s fellowship together with God and His word.

I know you are reading this but look (read) in your Bible. Mark it, underline it, and remember where you found it. This is just a little part of the Sermon on the Mount as Jesus covers so much of the kind of life we are to live.

Matt 6:19-21 (KJV)

¹⁹ Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: ²⁰ But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: ²¹ For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

The two topics before this section of chapter six are important. First Jesus is giving instruction on how to pray. Do you remember what Bro. Bob talked about three weeks ago???? Pray Hard! Without prayer there is no true fellowship with God, there is no power to make it through life’s test and challenges.

Next Jesus talks about Fasting. Fasting doesn’t change God, it changes you. It focuses you on God and His Word.

Notice back in the scripture we read in Matthew 6:21. It say’s “where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Where is your HEART? What do you TREASURE most? I can’t tell you how many people over the years have told me that God has blessed them with extra hours or a new job that keeps them from coming to church, too busy to read their Bible and pray. I can hear some people say, “Church doesn’t save anyone”, “Christians are just a bunch of hypocrites.” Yes, Jesus is the only way to receive your salvation. Yes Church is full of imperfect people. But isn’t that the point! A place where imperfect people can encourage each other to not quit or give up?

1 Peter 4:7-10 (KJV) says,..

7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. 9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging. 10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

God’s home is within us, we are the Body of Christ and a body needs to be together. We each have a gift that other people need. I can’t imagine my hand saying “I don’t want to be attached to my arm anymore.” Many times we let other things come between us and God such as people, sports, jobs, relationships, television, radio, and internet. We fill our hearts with all these different things. When this happens we begin to fall apart and get easily offended. This exposes the true treasure of our hearts. I know that many want to go to heaven but let’s look at someone who wanted eternal life but had a problem with what was requested from Jesus.

Matt 19:16-22 (KJV)

¹⁶ And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? ¹⁷ And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. ¹⁸ He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, ¹⁹ Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. ²⁰ The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? ²¹ Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. ²² But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.

I think a better translation would have said in verse 22 for the great possessions HAD him.

What do you think Jesus is asking of you right now? Where is your home? Are you home with every thing else but feel like a stranger in God’s presence? I am excited that you have a place to come receive the Word right in your own home through this ministry. But don’t forget that you have a gift that God wants to develop in you that others need. Spend time with God in His Word and in prayer. All you have to do is just begin talking with God because he is listening.

Ps 107:6 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.

Ps 107:13 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

Ps 107:19 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.

Maybe you don’t know where to begin. Just say… “Jesus thank you for loving me even when I wasn’t near. Thank you for helping me even when I wasn’t paying attention. Forgive me of being far from home. Help me to seek you first! Forgive me of my sins. I commit, focus, and treasure you. I want to be used by you. Lead me to people who need what you have given me. Thank you for showing me where to assemble with other believers. In Jesus name, AMEN.”

I bet you feel lighter, like a weight has been lifted. That’s the love of the Father to us who believe. As you begin the week take time to remind yourself when you begin to get upset, feel alone and depressed. That God is with you. We are praying for you. God bless you and thank you for taking the time to read what God had in store for you today.

In Him,

Pastor David

Thank you, Pastor David. It has been an honor to have you be the first guest minister to share the Word of God with our online church family. Your mother and I are very proud of you and your decision to serve God. Yes, my friends, pastor David is our son. But even more important than that, he is a son of the living God.

God Bless you,

Bro. Bob

The Desires of Your Heart

Welcome everyone to your 24/7 week-long online church service. What a pleasure it is to share Gods Word with you. We have received comments and emails indicating this online church is helping to change lives for the better. That is due to God only, my friends. We take no credit for what God is accomplishing through this ministry. We are just the messenger service that God uses.

God is the provider of good things to you. Did he not prove that by sending his Son Jesus to die on that old rugged cross, a substitute for us. Then, he raised Jesus from the dead and accepted him as the perfect sacrifice so we could be saved from our sin and have eternal life with Him. Set free by the shed blood of our savior, Jesus Christ. Upon acceptance of Jesus by us, the gift of salvation is bestowed upon us. What a gift, my friends. We become alive in Jesus but what does that mean?

Turn with me in your bible to Ephesians 2:1-6:

“And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; (Remember the message “Dead Men Walking?” If not, go back and read it. I guarantee it will help you.) Wherein in time past he walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation (manner of life) in times past in the lust of our flesh (evil cravings), fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God (I always love it when I read or hear “But God”!!) who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.”

Yes, my friends, if we have accepted Jesus Christ as our lord and savior, we are indeed alive in him and we can and must live for him. What a great summary the apostle Paul lays down for us to contemplate. Paul clearly points out how we were once dead in our trespasses and sin. We were mired in the ways of the world. Unfortunately, some reading this message, are still in that condition, but you don't have to be. As often stated before, it is your choice. For those that are now believers, it is through God who is rich in mercy and his great love that he loves us with, even when we were dead in sin he has quickened us. You see, unbeliever, God does love you, even though you are in sin and he is extending that love, mercy, and grace, and desires to quicken you together with Christ. Yes, he wants to save you and give you liberty and freedom from a life filled with longing and indecision. Are you tired of the struggle within yourself? Today is your day, my friends. Accept Jesus into your heart today. Let God fill you with his love and peace that passes all understanding.

In verse 6, Paul says, “God has raised us up together.” What does that mean? It very simply means the resurrection of Christ from the tomb was also our (us who believe) resurrection, spiritually speaking, meaning God has given us newness of life in him. Thank God for that free gift of salvation!! We can now be and act like we have always really wanted to be. Honest, sincere, loving, just. God's desires will now become our desires. Psalms 37:4 points this out very clearly:

“Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

There has been some false and misleading preaching on this subject, hasn't there? Some will say this means your desire to obtain things for yourself is the meaning of the scripture. For example, just the particular house or car or wife or husband or anything else of a material nature. I promised in our mission statement to only give forth the revealed Word of truth that God has given me and that is what we intend to do. For sure, you can ask God to provide you with these things, but what the Psalmist is saying in this scripture is when you delight in him, he will give you his desires for you. The things we have talked about before: the desire to serve him, the desire to serve others, the desire to worship and love God, the desire to lead others to Jesus Christ, the desire to be a great husband, wife, son or daughter, and the desire to treat others as you wish to be treated. Do you get this, my friends? God will remove the lustful and sinful things in your heart and replace them with his desires. What a great God we serve. When we commit our lives to God though his son Jesus, he will bring these things to pass. How do I know that? Continue reading Psalms 37:5:

“Commit thy way unto the lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”

It is truly through him we can fulfill the true desires in our heart that our heavenly father has given us. It is time, my friends, to turn or return to the ways of God. Your future success in this world and the world beyond depends on it. We must keep our focus on God and his ways. Unfortunately, even many churches have drifted away from the true teachings of our heavenly father. Now, let me state clearly, there are many fine pastors and churches in this land but there are more and more churches that are more interested in pleasing man than in pleasing God.

Ladies and gentlemen, when churches take out alters and put Starbucks in their lobbies, something is wrong. When the word “Sin” is no longer preached because it may offend someone or pastor's fear that their membership and offerings may decline, something is wrong. When only the blessings of God are preached and accountability and judgment are left out of sermons, something is wrong. When TV evangelists reduce the healing power of God to a sound bite to raise money for themselves, something is wrong. When there are over two hundred and fifty seminaries, all teaching different things on the same subject, something is wrong. It is more important than ever to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit in deciding what Church or what pastor or preacher to follow.

The bible is truly the direction book of life. Read it more carefully than ever. Ask God to give you the revealed Word of truth for you and your family. Also, ask him to give you eyes to see and ears to hear so you will know what he has for you and what direction he wants you to follow. God is a faithful God. He loves you and he will not abandon you. Find that good pastor that puts God first. Find that local church that still preaches the revealed truth of God no matter if it is meeting in a church building, a store front, or in a house. Follow God. He will lead you in the right direction and that direction will always lead right back to him.

God Bless you,

Brother Bob

Trust the Lord Again!!

Welcome to the year 2010. Yes folks, another year has passed. We are now entering a whole new decade. Sort of hard to believe, isn't it? One thing we can believe, The Spirit Of Wisdom Ministries is beginning it's sixth month of service. We have not missed a weekly service in the past six months. God is so good, isn't he?

We have endeavored to always present the Gospel exactly as God has given it to us. If there is no anointing, we do not preach or teach. God has blessed us with the wisdom and ability to give forth his Word in his truth and by his Spirit. Thank you Lord for your continuing anointing and the blessing upon your Word that goes forth from this ministry.

Welcome everyone to your 24/7 week-long online church service. As always, we welcome everyone to this place. Holy Spirit, you are always welcome in this place. Thank you for leading and guiding us unto the path of righteousness.

As we mentioned beforehand, we have now entered a new year. The new year always seems to invoke the thoughts of new beginnings, new hopes, and new desires. We make resolutions to hopefully bring about better life conditions, don't we? Resolutions to be a better person, to make more money, to lose weight, and to eat healthier. All good things, my friends, but all very temporary, aren't they? Experts say most new years resolutions are broken within two months. Why? Because they are usually good thoughts but not anchored by determination and hard work. Oftentimes, these resolutions are broken because we have a lack of direction on how to bring about change in our lives.

We listen to Oprah or Dr. Phil, read self-improvement magazines, follow the advice of educators, scientists, friends, neighbors, even politicians or talking heads on T.V. or radio. Am I speaking truth here or not, my friends? In other words, we turn to everything and everyone except God and his Word. We will watch the history, biography, or discovery channel, and believe what they say over what the Bible, which is God's direction book of life, has to say. I believe in previous messages we showed that God has left his directions for our lives in written form and that is the Bible.

It's time, my friends, to start the new year off the right way. Make your resolutions based on eternal things. Turn to God now and stay with God, no matter what. As our former pastor John Bulloch, of the Solid Rock Church in Hazel Park Michigan always said, “Don't go by how you feel, go by the word that's real.” That is the truth, my friends.

Believers, be refreshed in the spirit of God. Be strengthened in the inner man. Be directed by God in your affairs of life again as you were when you first received Christ as your Lord and Savior. Trust the Lord again!! Turn with me to Proverbs 3:5-6:

“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart: and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”

How will he direct you in all your ways? Simple, my friends. By the reading and understanding of his Word (the Bible) and by his Spirit. Listen for his voice as you once did, remember? Please turn with me to John 18:37:

“Pilate therefore said unto him, “art thou a king then?” Jesus answered, “thou saith that I am a King. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I unto the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Everyone that is of the truth heareth my voice.”

Ladies and gentlemen, the very moment you accepted Jesus into your heart, you became one that is of the truth. The truth is Jesus Christ. Jesus himself told us that, didn't he? Oh, come on now, you know he did! Please look in your Bible to John 14:6. Jesus talking to Thomas:

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: No man cometh unto the Father but by me.”

It is very clear, my friends, if you know Jesus, not just know about him. You are of the truth and that means you can hear his voice. What a way to start the new year. Refocusing your life by recommitting your being to God through his Son, Jesus Christ. Live again by faith and not by sight. Speak Gods word into every situation of life. Ask God to once again give you eyes to see and ears to hear. Ask him for wisdom and understanding. Get back into his Word daily (the Bible) and I promise the year 2010 will be the best year ever for you, no matter what happens. Be of good cheer, my friends. God is with you and for you. This is the word of encouragement God has for you this week. Get excited about the possibilities church, God will lead and guide you through every peril of life because you have chosen by faith to love and serve him. You want a resolution that will change your life for the good, don't you? Resolve to once again walk and live in the realm of the Spirit. Don't worry about the economy or what politicians or false teachers have to say. Concentrate on God and his ways. You do that and happy new year will not just be a greeting, it will be a way of life in God, through his Son, Jesus Christ. This ministry is here to walk beside you and to support you in your resolution to get excited once again about the things of God. Father, we at the Spirit of Wisdom Ministries pray for these believers that are a part of our online church family. Bless them, Heal them, and Deliver them. Lead them, Lord into victory through your son, Jesus. Thank you, Lord for being our loving father, Amen.

Now, just a short note to some of you that have walked or drifted away from God. Come on back today. Jesus is waiting with open arms to love you, forgive you, and to welcome you back home with him and so are we, my friends. Start the new year right. Get right with God and live free again.

I know there are people that enter into our online church service that have not accepted Jesus as their Lord and savior, but I also know you have felt the drawing of the Holy Spirit. That is the love of God calling you to accept the Lord Jesus Christ into your heart. You know I am speaking truth to you. You know Jesus died for you and you believe he really did arise from the dead so that you may be saved from your sin. You really are tired of the emptiness that prevails in your life. So, come on my friend, ask Jesus into your heart today. Ask him to forgive you and cleanse you from all your sin. Believe in your heart and confess Jesus as Lord of your life. I know you are out there and I know you are ready to do this. Email me today at brotherbob@thespiritofwisdom.org and tell us of your decision. We love you and will rejoice with you and we will welcome you into the family of God.

Well, my friends, as we begin this new year, be encouraged. God is a good God and he loves you. He really does you know.

God Bless you,

Bro. Bob

Prayer Request Update: We are continuing to pray for Shaun Morgan. Shaun will have the repeat of all his tests in January to see how well the bone marrow did. Please agree with us, in prayer, that the tests will be successful. Continue to pray for a complete and total healing for Shaun. Also, pray that God will bless Shaun financially to take care of his medical expenses. Ask God to give Shaun and his mother, Freida, direction and peace in the medical decisions they still have to make. Pray believing and have faith that God will work a miracle for Shaun.
