OUR BLOODY HANDS...


______________________


Tim...have we got this thing ALL wrong? For the last few days the Precious Holy Spirit has consistently reminded me that:

“I am the Lord, and I do not change. And so you, the descendants of Jacob, are not yet completely lost. You, like your ancestors before you, have turned away from my laws and have not kept them. Turn back to me, and I will turn to you. But you ask, ‘What must we do to turn back to you?’ (Malachi 3:6, 7 GNT)



THE ANSWER:  If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV)


I know...I know... this has been preached 'ad infinitum' to the point we say it like the 'lay me down to sleep' prayer I used to say as a kid. It was a rite habitually taught, but rarely understood or even explained.

Weak At the Knees...

BE ENCOURAGED


ABROTHASMINISTRY

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. 
Galatians 6:9


EARLY this a.m., I received a telephone call.
 
I hardly ever hear from Deacon Mo' and when I do it's usually a blast text message reminding us of a men's meeting, choir rehearsal or snow that needs shovelin'.   

Both the timing and fact that he called, at all, caught me a bit off guard.

Deacon Mo' went right in...without as much as hello and said, brother, I need you to "endure". 

It was all but too brief a call, consisting of  a quote of Galatians 6:9, an even shorter exhortation and a sudden, disconnected phone tone, that I believe I listened to longer than the actual call itself.   

And yet I was shook to the core!

HE' REMEMBERED...

Journal Entry: Christmas Day 2012




I finally hit my breaking point. 


Yesterday, December 24, 2012, in my own place of 'aloneness, hitting brick wall...after brick wall; I got frustrated,well no...let me keep this real, I got(respectfully) angry and said I just can't...I just can't any more...Lord.


____________________________________________________

I already determined, like the biblical Elisha, after his epically failed 'text message' confrontation with Jezebel, I too would go AWOL, run away to a deserted place, and hope to die. Not so much physically...as I know better ...but never the less...I wanted this heart of HIS, now beating incessantly in me to just...

Healing Soul Wounds-AbrothasMinistry

-Definition: 1.Soul wounds-are injuries caused and inflicted on a person's soul by a sin of commission or omission; either by someone committing a sinful violation against your person or something we have or are doing that sinfully violates our own selves.
Psalm 147:3  HE heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds
----------------------------------------

Because these wounds are by origin caused by sin; they give the determined 'enemies of our souls' the legal right to torment both you and I.

Torment that can, ultimately manifest itself in physical diseases and maladies,as I quickly learned this lesson too...

Healing Soul Wounds:Part II

abrothasministry.org

Bishop Tudor Bismark...one of the most dynamics speakers today exposing his own 'soul' wounds!

This is a life changing message for every believer, but for many brothas in Christ...it is straight manna from heaven!

P.U.S.H.

The way to get real-life results in prayer is to seek God with an attitude that says, "No matter how long it takes, or whatever I have to do, I will not be denied..."


  • This is not arrogance, it’s Godly hunger.
  • It is not about pushing God, but about pushing yourself into God.
  • This is not praying for the sake of praying.
  • This is praying to see the hand of God move.
  • This is desperate hungry praying.
  • This is the type of prayer that gets answers.
