The Power of Spending Time of JESUS

by Greg Lancaster

What is abiding? You may hear us talk about this on the program all the time. Abiding is spending time with God, hiding God’s Word in our hearts and praying/talking with Him and then doing what He says. Why do we abide? Examine the scriptures to compare what we have heard from others to make sure it is true. “Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.” One thing that develops as we abide with God is that we learn to relate to Him which builds a relationship. Also, through abiding, we learn how to bear good fruit in our abiding with Him. Jesus says, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” Do we really know anyone, especially the Lord, if we do not spend time with them and appreciate and apply what they say? Walking out God’s Word is truly knowing God and causes us to bear good fruit. Spending this time with God daily opens our eyes to see ourselves and to evaluate why we are living our lives the way we are whether good or bad. We can know God by abiding with Him, and we have a simple plan for you at iAbide. You can sign up for this plan today and start your abiding journey today. We want to hear from you and what you think about abiding with God. Also shared in this segment: False Teachings, sufferings, tossing seas, swords, and fruit.

WATCH! It’s Possible to have Peace in Your Storms; It’s Possible to have Peace in Your Storms; It’s Both the Kindness and Sternness of God

by Greg Lancaster

LISTEN NOW!

It’s Possible to have Peace in Your Storms

Many times in life we face storms and trials, and even Jesus said, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” You may be surprised when you face troubles as a believer and as Jesus said we would have troubles. Even the Apostle Paul shares with us, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” We don’t have to waste our time worrying or stressing about something we can’t change. Instead, we can spend the time praying and giving it all to God and in turn, receive His peace. God is the One Who can turn our troubles around for good and during this trouble we can be at complete peace, resting in God, knowing that He is in control. We want to hear from you and what you think about this discussion. Also shared in this segment: Storms, Family, Death, Stress, Peace. Greg, Pat, and John shared in this segment.

The Power of Spending Time of JESUS

It’s Both the Kindness and Sternness of God

We have an enlightening discussion about a sermon taught by Jonathan Edwards in 1741, Sinners in the Hand of an Angry God. When we make Jesus the Lord of our lives, we are saved from the wrath of God. It may be hard to understand this with many of the teachings we hear these days; that we can love someone and be angry with them at the same time. God showed mercy to us, which is Him showing His love, by sending His Son to die a brutal death. Jesus took on all the wrath of God at the moment of His death. And Jesus rose again to bring us eternal life taking on all our sins, washing them away, so we can be with Him forever. God took what we deserved and put all of that in Jesus. Until we understand this, we won’t understand what God has saved us from. You can read our stories at Meet My Father to see that we are all sinners saved by grace. If you don’t know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you can make the decision today to accept Him and receive this mercy and grace that God has given to us. We want to hear from you and what you think about this discussion. Also shared in this segment: New England, wrath, anger, love, saved, Bill Weise, agony, hell, airlines, and tsunamis.

False Prophet Crashes 6,000 Pound Ten Commandment Monument; on behalf of God and the Constitution?

by Blogger Import

LISTEN NOW! (Or WATCH FULL PROGRAM!) When an Arkansas court ruled for the 10 Commandments to be taken down, community members responded by raising their own money to build a replacement of a 6,000-pound monument of the 10 Commandments. According to Inside Edition, the unthinkable happened less than 24 hours later. Michael Tate Reed, 32, was arrested after he decided to run over the monument with his car, and broadcast it live on Facebook. This is not the half of it. Reed then proceeded to create a “Go Fund Me Page” to raise funds to pay for the damages that were inflicted to his car after crashing into the monument. As Inside Edition points out, “Reed describes himself on Facebook, as a born-again Christian who is a Pentecostal Jesus Freak”. Governor Mike Huckabee had his own words of response to Reed’s actions when he tweeted, “Some idiot in my home state broke all 10 commandments at the same time. He wasn’t Moses and it wasn’t Mt. Sinai.”

Why would someone even do this? Just because Reed claimed to have been doing this in the name of Christ, does not mean that he is a follower of Jesus. In John 8:31, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples.” Jesus also gave us wisdom for situations just like these. In Matthew 7:15-20, Jesus also shared:

Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.

Being a Christian is not based on what our status says on our Facebook page, or even what we tell people with our words. Who we are is clearly displayed by what we tell people in our actions. The First Amendment of the Constitution allows us to have the 10 Commandments. It is a good thing to be able to have the 10 Commandments, yes, but God wants us to not only read them, but to also put them into practice in our lives.

A lot of strange teachings are being taught in this hour. Just because someone “attends church” or “goes to church” does not make them a Christian. If you have given your life to Jesus Christ, YOU are the Church. YOU are the building of God. Christians are not perfect, they are just forgiven. Each of us struggle with battles in our lives, that is why we need Jesus. Be encouraged as you see the full story of what has taken place in Oklahoma, how to look past the words of what is being said in someone’s life, focusing on fruit, and so much more.
