And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead. -Acts 20:9


God bless you, good morning and TGIF. There is a fallacy in the body of Christ, where people are more concerned with the delivery than the item delivered. 


Imagine waiting for that one Amazon order that you can’t live without and though you have PRIME it still takes what seems forever to get that treasure. 


The day of delivery and wouldn’t you know it there is a great storm blowing, but despite the rain you wait and track, track and wait. 


Finally you hear the sound of the truck pulling up and of course observe the delivery person. As they get out of their they drop the package in the yard. 


Immediately you react opening the door    and usher in the delivery man while leaving the package outside.  


It seems inconceivable but such is the state of the church. It is debatable if the young man in the scripture above  grew weary of the delivered message, but many great messages fall victim to yawns and snores. 


The state indicates charisma has taken the front seat and talent has trumped truth, now the deliverer has become more important than that delivered. 


Beloved  use discernment to ascertain the role of the deliverer, the packaging and for sure the package. 


Go fellowship this Sunday, we all need it.

And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;   We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:                   -Daniel 9:4-5 Good morning and TGIF!    Daniel the prophet offers a vital lesson on humility in these scriptures. He draws a parallel between David’s prayer (Ps 51), where David acknowledges not only his own sins but also the sins of those who came before him. Many people either deny being affected by their ancestors' sins or are quick to highlight the faults of others while conveniently overlooking their own.  In verse 4, Daniel first confesses his own sins, whether they were committed intentionally or unintentionally. Then in verse 5, he acknowledges the s...

  And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. -2 Samuel 24:24 Good morning and terrific Thursday to you!  The passage referenced tells the story of David trying to halt a plague in Israel—a plague that had come as a result of his own disobedience. To stop it, an act of obedience was required. Following the instructions given through the prophet, David sought a place to offer a sacrifice. He arrived at the threshing floor of Araunah, where the angel had ceased his destruction, intending to build an altar there. Araunah, upon learning of the king’s purpose, generously offered the space and everything needed for the sacrifice at no cost.  However, David declined the offer, as he understood a profound truth that many overlook: the principle of sacrifice is that it must c...

  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. -John 3:17 Good morning and happy Monday to you!  The Lord Jesus came to this world not to condemn us, but to show us what true righteousness is. His mission had multiple purposes, and I will highlight two of them. First, we needed an example of righteousness—someone conceived without sin and who lived a sinless life. Next, because of His immaculate conception and sinless existence, He was qualified to be sacrificed. This requirement was too great for sinful man to fulfill. The grace it took for Him to come into this world and to die for it is truly amazing. #prayforthepeaceofIsrael God bless you and command your day!!! Your comments and questions are welcome.
