I grew up a pastors kid, my dad passed away when I was 27. I helped serve the ministry my whole life, there was a switch when I went because I was my fathers child and then when I stayed because I wanted serve Christ. Don’t rely on your pastor or your parents faith but seek Christ yourself. Pray for your pastors that they are not self lead but Holy Spirit lead and biblical
I am no longer a member of the Christian denomination in which I was brought-up. However, were it not for my parents’ abiding faith, lived-out as an example of what Our Lord teaches? I may never have met Christ at all. Our lives are a journey. So is our faith. I am inordinately blessed, that Our Lord graced me with the parents that He did. Romans 8:28
You’re just proof that the old saying “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is true. But also that God is always with us. Continuing prayers for your family.
The late Charles Stanley wrote a book "Finding God's Blessings in Brokenness" regarding how pain reveals His deepest love. I've found this helpful in understanding about bad things that happen.
God doesn't promise us to stop the storm or take us out of the storm, but He does promise to be with us through the storm and to help us get through the storm..
Yes, I did decent my whole life. I'm 61 now. But after my husband died, I was very depressed. At tgat time,my deceased husband's very evil brother and his demon wife took my daughter. Not because they wanted to help! For the social security money my daughter received, and to destroy me. They kept her from me for 4 years. My daughter told me, what they did was wrong. I have ptsd from it.ill never be right
I have watched you for years. I have prayed for you often. I am married for 58 years, we have four adult children who loves Jesus...I am often quoting things you say..God bless you each day and night. Love from Michigan.
You just told Satan to go fly a kite because all you have went through for a while didn't stop you from this excellent video on how to trust JESUS when things go wrong. Thank you so much. Will continue to pray for you and your family for GOD to carry you threw this time. You both are much appreciated and loved. Indiana loves you. And so do i. Have a Blessed night.
What a great topic! God is using you mightily with this. People need to see and hear this side of the walk in the Lord. Prayers and hugs. God promices us he will walk each path we walk with us. He is so faithful to his people!
Awesome live! Thanks Tawra & Mike! May God carry you & your family through the rough times & bring healing, guidance, help, comfort & His peace that passes understanding with every step along the way. 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨
Great show! Keeping yall in my prayers. One of the comments tonight said something about yall looking happy and I agree. Tawra, you look tired and in pain but beyond that we can see peace in you that only God can give. What a blessing. We experience Him most in our weakness. ❤ 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I really enjoyed this show! I love that you guys do not water down the truth. It’s so nice to know there are still genuine people out there. I have purchased several of your cookbooks as well. Love them! Keep fighting the good fight.
Years ago, I ask My Mama why things happen to Christians but also to bad people. She told me God was "a Just God" so he does for the Good and Bad because he is Just. 😢 my theory was some people don't deserve but after Mama explained God's reason I as a Christian looked as things the Godly way. I was much younger then but my Mama was a wonderful Christian.
Thank you for speaking about consequences of our choices! I think this is so overlooked. A friend often says that her daughter ‘just can’t catch a break’. Well her daughter had two kids then married a guy, not the father, with a history of violence and drugs. Kids are now 12 & 16yo and struggling with big issues. Consequences can carry on past repentance.
Prayers for you and your family. I truly believe that God does have a plan for each of us (Good or bad). Blessings and hope all continues to work out in this difficult time.
We all realize that it is YOUR life and we are NOT ENTITLED to know everything that goes on in your life, you DO NOT NEED TO MAKE EXCUSES for not sharing. IT IS YOUR LIFE, YOUR CHOICES. Thanks for sharing what you do. You add blessings, laughter, humour, knowledge, tears, joy. The Lord is allowing you to share all of this with us to enrich our lives. Thank you for doing this.
Bad things happen to good people because we live in a fallen world. God does not take free will away from people. Evil exists. God promises to get us through the situations for His glory. He turns what the devil meant for evil into good. We may not understand at the moment, but as you look back at your situation, you will see how He worked everthing for good. We learn to trust no matter what happens. This life is short, eternity with Christ is our reward and then we will see the whys and how they shaped our lives.
This is exactly what I believe. I dont believe God has planned our every move, but I think he does know what is going to happen because he is all seeing and all knowing. He gives us free will but he will help us through even the darkest times if we ask for his help. At some point, you just have to have faith. God bless!!
“Pick up your cross and follow me”. Going through the labor pains with the help of God’s grace will have the deliverance of joy and peace. Jesus is sharing His Cross with us. We are united in His One Body. A glorious mystery! Praise Be To Our Lord, Jesus Christ!
I just watched you guys live tonight, as I was cooking and cleaning. Then, I needed more to listen to, and found this video. I love you guys even more than ever! You're such an encouragement!
Tawra and Mike, We aren’t sure what trials your sweet family might be going through at this time although we pray that you continue to know God’s unconditional love, comfort, strength, guidance, wisdom and grace. Keeping you guys and your family in our prayers! Much love and God’s continued blessings from our family to yours from Australia xxx
I have purchased your cook books and ordered 2 of your gluetin/dairy free cook book and have given them away to family members with health issues. Thank you for all you both do to share the truth of Jesus, loved the conversation today ❤❤❤
God is so good and so many things go on behind the scenes in the spiritual realm that we have no clue are happening. I feel like we all don’t need to know all your business. As long as y’all, the people involved, and God knows that is enough. Keeping all of you in prayer.
Tucking you and the family in my prayers. I can really relate to being attacked. Please pray for our situation too. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
When my Mum passed away, I had a good cry with my Dad and said to him, "Dad.. it just isn't fair. I know Mum was in her 80s, however she didn't hurt a fly.. she didn't think a negative thought against anybody yet she was given the worst cancer... why? There are people who have such done such sick demonic acts to people and they don't suffer..why should they wait til after they've died?" He hugged me and told me he knew where I was coming from.
Currently struggling with my mood again. Have turned to God to help alongside meds. I often feel thankful of having my catholic faith at times of trouble.
You’re a 100% right about the movie the chosen. I was encouraged to watch it. I said no thank you. My God is in the Bible and in our hearts ❤️ God walks with us and in us every second of the day. I don’t want to image he wasn’t with me. Plz keep repeating this message you guys. You will know them by their fruits. You have a Big fruit bowl. !!! Your words are wisdom and encouraging. God bless and favor your family always. Amen 🙏
I’m so glad you said that about “The Chosen”, I have not a will not watch it! Faith is believing in something you can’t see! Not in a movie! I love the Bible you sent me. It’s much easier than my Bible( which I am reading as well ). I have always loved your channel and I love it more and more. Thank you for being the Christian’s you are and teaching others about Jesus and the Bible. Praying for you. 🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻
God is interested in our holiness, more than our happiness. The bad things that hurt can still be for our good. God is still at work inside us, in spite of us, in all situations. The Bible is full of sinners sinning and God's work through them to change and redeem. Prayers for you and yours. ❤
I soo appreciate your show. Ive watched you for a couple of years now and am soo happy to see how its evolved to a God honoring program. I love it. God Bless you both. Barb Wanamaker from Abbotsford, British Columbia
Christ’s command is to love one another. I love you two and your family without being close friends, that is what we do because of the love of God. Thank you for sharing enough that we can hear your hearts and pray, while limiting the details to preserve privacy. “The rain falls on the just and the unjust”, life happens to us all. I am thankful for the many times the Lord protects us that we do not realize. The testimony of your faith in the midst of trials that God loves us and is with us through those times is comforting. The book of James talks about this too. Prayers for healing for all of you, those most affected of course but all of your hearts were troubled. God is our hope and our healer.
Very well said! Totally 100 percent Amen! Thank you for being a faithful Christian and standing up for our Lord. I pray God blesses you beyond your imagination. God can and still is in the miracle business. I believe the lord does want us to do for ourself what we can do and the Lord will do the rest. We can’t just sit in sin and continue to live in that sin and expect Him to do for us what we should be doing ourself. 1st asking the Lord to be our personal Lord and Savior, then living as His word says!
Talking about exact dollar amounts reminds me of something that happened to my mom. Back before she was married & living alone she caught pneumonia. Got such a bad case that she had to go on temporary disability. She got better & returned to work but didn’t get her disability payments from the government. Why? What’d she do wrong? Why is God doing this? Fast forward & her favorite relative in Canada (she was living in California at the time) died & she wanted to go to the funeral but couldn’t afford it. Then she finally got her disability check in the mail - for the exact dollar amount that she’d need to fly to Canada, go to the funeral, say hi to relatives, & fly home. To. The. Penny. She always credits God with that.
I had to jump through some hoops to read your entire comment but I'm so thankful I did. It gave me a giant wave of spiritual goosebumps. Thank you. Only the first line and half of your second sentence were on UA-cam on TV and I had no way to open it. No luck on my Facebook page either but, finally on my laptop on UA-cam. Great testimony.
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. (Revelation 3:20
I wish I could have been here for this live. Your praise reports and encouragement is what I’ve needed to hear. My question would be what to pray for my stepdaughter. She is having mental health struggles and I think the blended family is tough on her or for whatever reason she is rejecting her dad. I’m praying for strength And wisdom for the parents and peace for our girl. Anybody that can share scriptures for directed prayers I would greatly appreciate it.
Oh, how i know trials. My whole life, since birth, I have had many trials. Some were because of wrong choices. Others were out of my control. I've also been ill with one ailment or another. I also suffer from fibromyalgia, chronic pain syndrome, type 2 diabetes, Hashimoto's, had thyroid removed, etc. Anyways, through it all, I knew there was a God & that gave me hope. Just when I'm about ready to give up hope, He gives me sign that He's got me. I'm grateful I'm still alive. Glad y'all had a safe journey. I'm on east coast of Florida & I'd have to say it is a whole different world down here. My prayers are with you & your unspoken needs. Your faith is a light in a dark world.
“All things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His promises”. Romans 8:28. Amen.(One of my dearest and oldest Charismatic- Fundamentalist Christian friends just went through a horrific battle with cancer. Yet? She knew that Our Lord had permitted this, even if she didn’t know why).
Calvinist’s believe in predestination, however it is up to us to preach and spread the word till everyone hears. There will be those who choose not to hear and believe.
As an abused child who suffered many years, I asked this question and did not believe in God. I am 65 years old and will tell you what I have learned. First of all, God did not cause the trouble I had to endure in my life, lets get that straight. But i have come to understand that everyone and I mean everyone faces a life of being tested..each case is unique, and there is no explanation...but I will say this, it is the challenges that build you and you do not realize it until you come out on the other side...We are all here to face tough challenges and learn from them...we all have a cross to carry as did Jesus, they are just all painted different colors...I hope people understand we all are pushed to our limits, and in that we grow our soul...God Bless
I think of my cross necklace and picture of Jesus as a reminder to follow Jesus and live a better life. I know there is no accurate picture of Jesus. When I turn my necklace, it is just a reminder to be a better person the rest of the day as it was a reminder when I put it on. I do not worship the cross or the picture, but use it as a reminder to put me back on track or keep me on track. Just as I would my Bible if it was with me all day. Great video today.
So very happy to see y'all back. Hope you enjoyed your visit to our great state of Mississippi - we hope y'all will be able to visit again one day. The boiled peanuts - you just need to find some really good ones to get the taste. There used to be little farm stands along the highway from our Gulf Coast to Hattiesburg, MS that sold boiled & roasted peanuts - best ever - we always stopped on our way to & from the coast time get a couple of bags of each! Also happy y'all got a chance to try Boudin - it's a real treat. I'm glad y'all had a safe & blessed trip & will continue to pray that the situation will be resolved soon if it's God's will. God is in control He will provide & carry us thru. Thank you for doing this today - I know y'all are worn out but did this Bible Q & A - it was most needed. God bless & keep y'all in the coming days - ❤❤
My dad was old school southern Baptist minister. We were never allowed to have pictures of Jesus in our house. The Ten Commandments was a big movie when I was young and dad wouldn’t let us watch that either. He said it was hollywoods interpretation of the Bible
God gives us free will to make a lot of choices in our lives. Life is also a set of random events that can make life good or bad at times God does not put you through anything you can't handle.
I was considering the term you used, when were speaking about that horrible series the chosen, and decided to look up the word, and the meanings, "Blasphemy is an insult that shows contempt, disrespect or lack of reverence concerning a deity, an object considered sacred or something considered inviolable." "Sacrilegious means extremely disrespectful towards something considered sacred. An action that causes deep offense to a believer - like burning a religious text, for example - is sacrilegious. The Latin sacrilegus, "thief of sacred things," was used to describe robbers who plundered graves and temples." one site gave some insight for me, of scriptures, and it goes to show even if you had read a lot of the books of the bible, your mind doesn't always take in what you have read, when reading becomes a rote habit of just reading words.
God gave us freewill in order to understand , things happen here that and even if we ask for a specific outcome he maya different perspective of the solution than we were seeking ,Soon it will be Easter , and even Jesus asked " Father why have you forsaken me?"... But God wants us to choose him with all hearts and ( freewill) and trust that whatever happens he has equipped us with what we need to get through it, getting through it doesn' t mean doing what we want, but that doesn't mean has not listened to our hearts , be still and listen... I am.... Keep your eyes on him, and be still, be faithful and believe, that' s faith , know his love ... things happen because not only your freewill but the freewill of others, have faith and know he' s given everything we need ... have faith. In my life I have found to ask and believe ...have faith he is God and loves us ... trust his love for us and be thankful. to everything there is a season trust have faith ... we are human, or imperfect it through his merçy we are forgiven our imperfection s... God knows our hearts
I was reading in this very older book, that a lady from Sweden on Good Friday would take from noon to 3 o'clock to gather her kids around and they would read various portions of Scripture about the crucifixion and discuss it and what Jesus has done for us. I live alone but I've done something similar and read the accounts in the gospel about the crucifixion also, and then on Resurrection Sunday read His rising again. This has been very meaningful to me personally.
Doreen virtue used to write books about spirits and angels. She sold angel cards (tarot style) as well as angel boards etc. Apparently she decided to reject her old views and became a born again Christian. I used to see her books and products at Barnes and Noble a lot when I was younger.
God is faithful, all the time. You have been through the ringer for sure. But again, God is faithful. You have stood tall against the schemes and attacks of Satan, and God is faithful to come along beside you. Because you are a faithful family, praying and standing tall, Satan deems you as a target. If he didn't see you as a threat, and bringing others to Jesus, he wouldn't bother you. Ravi Zechariah said, "If you choose to sin, you choose to suffer". That has stuck with me for years, and years. In the last few weeks, God has once again shown me 3 times that He takes care of all my needs. Forgiveness and consequences are two different things. I have never had so many ads on your shows, or any other shows here on UA-cam. You have been interrupted this evening more times...... I believe that non-believers are "confounded" to discernment of the Word.
I mean at this channel. Satan is somehow getting UA-cam to sabotage your channel with an "over the top" number of ads. I watch a lot of UA-cam, and other channels are not hit with nearly the number of ads you are getting. You get to a point, and boom, there's a distracting ad.
Cabrini is an excellent movie and should be seen by all. This movie shows all the insurmountable hurdles she had to face in America and even Rome to create an orphanage to the less fortunate.
I didn't even notice this stream went live!! So, I'm catching the replay. I ordered food from Instacart to get Lucky Charms for St. Patrick's Day. We might be part Irish?
Thank you for your words. So glad we agree about Chosen but I came from a different angle... 1. Christians say the is a rendition and they say this in the introduction. Okay, so as long as they know what is said in the bible....eeeeee.. . 2. If they are not a Christian and do not know Jesus, they are truly being deceived, believing what there eyes are seeing. I told that to my friend who is a Christian and she went to see the movie and told me how emotional she was at one part...and I said, that is not in the bible is it? .... she paused and said I was right, she was wrong...
Blue Letter Bible- FREE It gives Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, translations. As well as, different Theologians you can listen to explain and break it down. Too much to say. Not super user friendly on all the extras…but could be me. I had a stroke. I heard about it a few yrs ago from Chuck Missler. It had to be good if he recommended 😊
I have never been a fan of Jesus’s pictures, and all the little crosses people hang around. It is an image, and when the Bible speaks of graven images, it did not add a foot note that it was okay to make images of all sorts of images if they involved Jesus. I prayed hours at one time as I was very confused over all the conflicting info about religion and who to follow. I went to bed and dreamed a book was brought to me and it was a plain simple Bible. I felt it was my answer. Ever since stay close to teaching from the Bible and do not involve myself with pastor’s books or even all that any teach. Find it right in that book.
There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zachary, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elizabeth. 1:6 And they were both just before God, walking in all the commandments and justifications of the Lord without blame. Luke 1
I have serious health issues including nerve pain! The nerve pain from 2 surgeries in the last 5 plus weeks! My Mom and I have been praying daily! Another surgery needed, I delayed because of such pain! I hope he hears my prayers!
I have a Bible question. I watched Max Lucado in an interview talking about having " a personal prayer language in tongues". I have a hard time with this in that I don't find that in the Bible anywhere. Where do I find that in the Bible? I can talk to God anytime anywhere without a private prayer language. Please let me know what you know about this. Thank you for all you do for the Kingdom. I will pray for you guys and whatever is going on.
Scripture tells us that when the apostle started speaking in tongues, each man I'm the crowd heard them in their own language. Tongues is simply another word for language and was given as a gift to preach to others of a different language that the one preaching could not speak.
Why would God not allow souls in heaven to pray or intercede for people on earth who asks them just as they did when they were alive in their body on earth?
"fill up those things which are wanting of the suffering of Christ..." Colossians 1:24 Christ desires that we participate in the salvation story and desires our participation in His suffering. It is the only thing missing. Being true man, He could only suffer a limited amount. But he wants to sanctify all suffering and make it perfect with his. When a mother who just loses a child, or the cancer patient suffers his pain, or even the recovering addict goes through the turmoil of breaking the addiction, when they offer it in union with our Lord's suffering, they fill up the "one thing lacking". As hard as suffering is, it can be quite beautiful and a source of many graces.
I believe that the life and suffering of Jesus is 100% enough. There isn’t anything else required for our forgiveness of sin. We suffer for many reasons…decisions we make (choices), to teach us or give us an experience to help others with same need. Nothing else needed to add to Christs suffering to help with forgiveness of sin.
Take this for what it's worth. I've listened to her for 20 years off and on. I have seen all the people calling her out for being a false teacher and their arguments. After listening for that long she has said that in the past she has said things that she now knows was wrong and she shouldn't have said. All of the people calling her out are using clips for 30 years or more and I know those particular things she has said she was wrong in teaching. So I have no problem listening to her but if you find something that you don't think is right then make your own choice.
Hi, I do understand that god is all knowing and you can’t hide things from him. I have a lot of health issues and conditions which have affected my life. Back in November 23, I was baptised and confirmed in Salisbury cathedral, UK. The water at the fond went into ears and have had ear issues since. I have also started using insulin since February for diabetes which has improved my slight and other issues. I try to be calm and nice despite all that I struggle with on a daily basis. God works in places and ways we never know why things happen. Someone in my life suggested watching the chosen etc. I am fully aware that there are cults out there. I do keep seeing people wasting there time promoting their cults. There are employees who scare and freak me out in a newly opened store in my city. This includes an employee that is trying to be female and feel very freaked out by them. As they were on the tills on Monday, I chose not to buy things with them as a result.
I grew up a pastors kid, my dad passed away when I was 27. I helped serve the ministry my whole life, there was a switch when I went because I was my fathers child and then when I stayed because I wanted serve Christ.

So much wisdom in that last sentence. I will start praying that. My Pastor is my oldest son.

Yes exactly! That’s what I always tell my children!!!

Thank you for speaking the truth. I'm focusing more on politics than God. I'm repenting right now.
Thank you for sharing Jesus tonight. I pray that your situation is solved quickly. ❤

Currently struggling with my mood again. Have turned to God to help alongside meds. I often feel thankful of having my catholic faith at times of trouble.
Yes! Healing and prayers to you!!!
“Offer it up” (amen?).😇
Amen he will take care of us I trust him completely
Dr. Dobson wrote a book titled Feelings, Can You Trust Them. I heard him say on the radio that the answer is NO! ☺️
You’re a 100% right about the movie the chosen. I was encouraged to watch it. I said no thank you. My God is in the Bible and in our hearts ❤️
God walks with us and in us every second of the day. I don’t want to image he wasn’t with me.
Plz keep repeating this message you guys. You will know them by their fruits. You have a Big fruit bowl. !!! Your words are wisdom and encouraging. God bless and favor your family always. Amen 🙏
Love your Bible lesson! ❤
Thank you for your testimony and giving honor to Jesus! ❤
I’m so glad you said that about “The Chosen”, I have not a will not watch it! Faith is believing in something you can’t see! Not in a movie! I love the Bible you sent me. It’s much easier than my Bible( which I am reading as well ). I have always loved your channel and
I love it more and more. Thank you for being the Christian’s you are and teaching others about Jesus and the Bible. Praying for you. 🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻
God is interested in our holiness, more than our happiness. The bad things that hurt can still be for our good. God is still at work inside us, in spite of us, in all situations. The Bible is full of sinners sinning and God's work through them to change and redeem. Prayers for you and yours. ❤
I soo appreciate your show. Ive watched you for a couple of years now and am soo happy to see how its evolved to a God honoring program.
I love it. God Bless you both.

Christ’s command is to love one another. I love you two and your family without being close friends, that is what we do because of the love of God.
Thank you for sharing enough that we can hear your hearts and pray, while limiting the details to preserve privacy.
“The rain falls on the just and the unjust”, life happens to us all. I am thankful for the many times the Lord protects us that we do not realize.
The testimony of your faith in the midst of trials that God loves us and is with us through those times is comforting. The book of James talks about this too.
Prayers for healing for all of you, those most affected of course but all of your hearts were troubled. God is our hope and our healer.
Very well said! Totally 100 percent Amen! Thank you for being a faithful Christian and standing up for our Lord. I pray God blesses you beyond your imagination. God can and still is in the miracle business. I believe the lord does want us to do for ourself what we can do and the Lord will do the rest. We can’t just sit in sin and continue to live in that sin and expect Him to do for us what we should be doing ourself. 1st asking the Lord to be our personal Lord and Savior, then living as His word says!
depend on God and you will make it through
Talking about exact dollar amounts reminds me of something that happened to my mom.
Back before she was married & living alone she caught pneumonia. Got such a bad case that she had to go on temporary disability. She got better & returned to work but didn’t get her disability payments from the government. Why? What’d she do wrong? Why is God doing this?
Fast forward & her favorite relative in Canada (she was living in California at the time) died & she wanted to go to the funeral but couldn’t afford it. Then she finally got her disability check in the mail - for the exact dollar amount that she’d need to fly to Canada, go to the funeral, say hi to relatives, & fly home. To. The. Penny. She always credits God with that.
I had to jump through some hoops to read your entire comment but I'm so thankful I did. It gave me a giant wave of spiritual goosebumps. Thank you.
Only the first line and half of your second sentence were on UA-cam on TV and I had no way to open it. No luck on my Facebook page either but, finally on my laptop on UA-cam. Great testimony.
Thanks again for another great reminder of God's Word! 😊
I have used this phrase for years and years: God doesn't give me more than I can handle, but sometimes he trusts me too much.
God gives us more than we can handle so we can learn to trust him. Which will build our faith.
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. (Revelation 3:20
I wish I could have been here for this live. Your praise reports and encouragement is what I’ve needed to hear. My question would be what to pray for my stepdaughter. She is having mental health struggles and I think the blended family is tough on her or for whatever reason she is rejecting her dad. I’m praying for strength And wisdom for the parents and peace for our girl. Anybody that can share scriptures for directed prayers I would greatly appreciate it.
Oh, how i know trials. My whole life, since birth, I have had many trials. Some were because of wrong choices. Others were out of my control. I've also been ill with one ailment or another. I also suffer from fibromyalgia, chronic pain syndrome, type 2 diabetes, Hashimoto's, had thyroid removed, etc. Anyways, through it all, I knew there was a God & that gave me hope. Just when I'm about ready to give up hope, He gives me sign that He's got me. I'm grateful I'm still alive. Glad y'all had a safe journey. I'm on east coast of Florida & I'd have to say it is a whole different world down here. My prayers are with you & your unspoken needs. Your faith is a light in a dark world.
I am gonna put you on my prayer list if you like amen mike
Lord works in Great Ways. Personal prayer I made for you answered. AMEN.
He will never give morel than you can bear. Keep on keeping on.🙏🙏🙏
“All things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His promises”. Romans 8:28. Amen.(One of my dearest and oldest Charismatic- Fundamentalist Christian friends just went through a horrific battle with cancer. Yet? She knew that Our Lord had permitted this, even if she didn’t know why).
Prayers
We live in a sinful world! God never promised that we’d never have trials.
Can't imagine not having God's peace
God bless you lovely people ❤
Calvinist’s believe in predestination, however it is up to us to preach and spread the word till everyone hears. There will be those who choose not to hear and believe.
As an abused child who suffered many years, I asked this question and did not believe in God. I am 65 years old and will tell you what I have learned. First of all, God did not cause the trouble I had to endure in my life, lets get that straight. But i have come to understand that everyone and I mean everyone faces a life of being tested..each case is unique, and there is no explanation...but I will say this, it is the challenges that build you and you do not realize it until you come out on the other side...We are all here to face tough challenges and learn from them...we all have a cross to carry as did Jesus, they are just all painted different colors...I hope people understand we all are pushed to our limits, and in that we grow our soul...God Bless
The first man I spoke about is a neighbor. I will be polite but that is as far as our conversation will go.
I just said a prayer for you and your family ❤
Everyone messes up...idc who it is all humans mess up.
You have such a good speaking voice.
My prayers are with you guys. Hope the kids are ok
I think of my cross necklace and picture of Jesus as a reminder to follow Jesus and live a better life. I know there is no accurate picture of Jesus. When I turn my necklace, it is just a reminder to be a better person the rest of the day as it was a reminder when I put it on. I do not worship the cross or the picture, but use it as a reminder to put me back on track or keep me on track. Just as I would my Bible if it was with me all day. Great video today.
You either love or hate them. Boiled peanut
So very happy to see y'all back. Hope you enjoyed your visit to our great state of Mississippi - we hope y'all will be able to visit again one day. The boiled peanuts - you just need to find some really good ones to get the taste. There used to be little farm stands along the highway from our Gulf Coast to Hattiesburg, MS that sold boiled & roasted peanuts - best ever - we always stopped on our way to & from the coast time get a couple of bags of each! Also happy y'all got a chance to try Boudin - it's a real treat. I'm glad y'all had a safe & blessed trip & will continue to pray that the situation will be resolved soon if it's God's will. God is in control He will provide & carry us thru. Thank you for doing this today - I know y'all are worn out but did this Bible Q & A - it was most needed. God bless & keep y'all in the coming days - ❤❤
My dad was old school southern Baptist minister. We were never allowed to have pictures of Jesus in our house. The Ten Commandments was a big movie when I was young and dad wouldn’t let us watch that either. He said it was hollywoods interpretation of the Bible
God gives us free will to make a lot of choices in our lives. Life is also a set of random events that can make life good or bad at times God does not put you through anything you can't handle.
Wow!! Sounds like a great testimony.. praise God..
I was considering the term you used, when were speaking about that horrible series the chosen, and decided to look up the word, and the meanings, "Blasphemy is an insult that shows contempt, disrespect or lack of reverence concerning a deity, an object considered sacred or something considered inviolable."
"Sacrilegious means extremely disrespectful towards something considered sacred. An action that causes deep offense to a believer - like burning a religious text, for example - is sacrilegious. The Latin sacrilegus, "thief of sacred things," was used to describe robbers who plundered graves and temples."
one site gave some insight for me, of scriptures, and it goes to show even if you had read a lot of the books of the bible, your mind doesn't always take in what you have read, when reading becomes a rote habit of just reading words.
God gave us freewill in order to understand , things happen here that and even if we ask for a specific outcome he maya different perspective of the solution than we were seeking ,Soon it will be Easter , and even Jesus asked " Father why have you forsaken me?"... But God wants us to choose him with all hearts and ( freewill) and trust that whatever happens he has equipped us with what we need to get through it, getting through it doesn' t mean doing what we want, but that doesn't mean has not listened to our hearts , be still and listen... I am.... Keep your eyes on him, and be still, be faithful and believe, that' s faith , know his love ... things happen
because not only your freewill but the freewill of others, have faith and know he' s given everything we need ... have faith. In my life I have found to ask and believe ...have faith he is God and loves us ... trust his love for us and be thankful. to everything there is a season trust have faith ... we are human, or imperfect it through his merçy we are forgiven our imperfection s... God knows our hearts
A few weeks ago, I was driving from So. Cal to No. Cal. on I-5. I have never seen so many semitrucks.
I was reading in this very older book, that a lady from Sweden on Good Friday would take from noon to 3 o'clock to gather her kids around and they would read various portions of Scripture about the crucifixion and discuss it and what Jesus has done for us. I live alone but I've done something similar and read the accounts in the gospel about the crucifixion also, and then on Resurrection Sunday read His rising again. This has been very meaningful to me personally.
Doreen virtue used to write books about spirits and angels. She sold angel cards (tarot style) as well as angel boards etc. Apparently she decided to reject her old views and became a born again Christian. I used to see her books and products at Barnes and Noble a lot when I was younger.
God is faithful, all the time. You have been through the ringer for sure. But again, God is faithful. You have stood tall against the schemes and attacks of Satan, and God is faithful to come along beside you. Because you are a faithful family, praying and standing tall, Satan deems you as a target. If he didn't see you as a threat, and bringing others to Jesus, he wouldn't bother you.
Ravi Zechariah said, "If you choose to sin, you choose to suffer". That has stuck with me for years, and years.
In the last few weeks, God has once again shown me 3 times that He takes care of all my needs.
Forgiveness and consequences are two different things.
I have never had so many ads on your shows, or any other shows here on UA-cam. You have been interrupted this evening more times......
I believe that non-believers are "confounded" to discernment of the Word.
Yes, UA-cam is adding more ads. Sorry about that.
I mean at this channel. Satan is somehow getting UA-cam to sabotage your channel with an "over the top" number of ads. I watch a lot of UA-cam, and other channels are not hit with nearly the number of ads you are getting. You get to a point, and boom, there's a distracting ad.
Cabrini is an excellent movie and should be seen by all. This movie shows all the insurmountable hurdles she had to face in America and even Rome to create an orphanage to the less fortunate.
I didn't even notice this stream went live!! So, I'm catching the replay. I ordered food from Instacart to get Lucky Charms for St. Patrick's Day. We might be part Irish?
I'm glad your family is doing well ❤❤
Thank you for your words. So glad we agree about Chosen but I came from a different angle... 1. Christians say the is a rendition and they say this in the introduction. Okay, so as long as they know what is said in the bible....eeeeee.. . 2. If they are not a Christian and do not know Jesus, they are truly being deceived, believing what there eyes are seeing. I told that to my friend who is a Christian and she went to see the movie and told me how emotional she was at one part...and I said, that is not in the bible is it? .... she paused and said I was right, she was wrong...
Blue Letter Bible- FREE
It gives Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, translations. As well as, different Theologians you can listen to explain and break it down. Too much to say. Not super user friendly on all the extras…but could be me. I had a stroke.
I heard about it a few yrs ago from Chuck Missler. It had to be good if he recommended 😊
God will not be mocked .
I have never been a fan of Jesus’s pictures, and all the little crosses people hang around. It is an image, and when the Bible speaks of graven images, it did not add a foot note that it was okay to make images of all sorts of images if they involved Jesus. I prayed hours at one time as I was very confused over all the conflicting info about religion and who to follow. I went to bed and dreamed a book was brought to me and it was a plain simple Bible. I felt it was my answer. Ever since stay close to teaching from the Bible and do not involve myself with pastor’s books or even all that any teach. Find it right in that book.
There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zachary, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elizabeth.

I missed you guys!!
Excellent video! God bless you!
Have to catch up on the first 15 minutes. Hugs 🫂
True😊😊
Sounds like a lot of driving and time, couldn't you have taken a plane for an emergency?
I have serious health issues including nerve pain! The nerve pain from 2 surgeries in the last 5 plus weeks! My Mom and I have been praying daily! Another surgery needed, I delayed because of such pain! I hope he hears my prayers!
Amen
Rosaria Butterfield videos!!! Wife of a pastor & Teaching scripture in the same way that you do..
I have a Bible question. I watched Max Lucado in an interview talking about having " a personal prayer language in tongues". I have a hard time with this in that I don't find that in the Bible anywhere. Where do I find that in the Bible? I can talk to God anytime anywhere without a private prayer language. Please let me know what you know about this. Thank you for all you do for the Kingdom. I will pray for you guys and whatever is going on.
Scripture tells us that when the apostle started speaking in tongues, each man I'm the crowd heard them in their own language. Tongues is simply another word for language and was given as a gift to preach to others of a different language that the one preaching could not speak.
Paul talked in a positive way about speaking in tongues.
Focus on GOD ❤
❤ 🙏 🙏 ❤
Example: The Biblical Job. 🙏🕊🙏
Why would God not allow souls in heaven to pray or intercede for people on earth who asks them just as they did when they were alive in their body on earth?
I don't know why he doesn't allow it but it's strictly forbidden in Deuteronomy 18:10-14
"fill up those things which are wanting of the suffering of Christ..." Colossians 1:24
Christ desires that we participate in the salvation story and desires our participation in His suffering. It is the only thing missing. Being true man, He could only suffer a limited amount. But he wants to sanctify all suffering and make it perfect with his. When a mother who just loses a child, or the cancer patient suffers his pain, or even the recovering addict goes through the turmoil of breaking the addiction, when they offer it in union with our Lord's suffering, they fill up the "one thing lacking".
As hard as suffering is, it can be quite beautiful and a source of many graces.
I believe that the life and suffering of Jesus
is 100% enough. There isn’t anything else required for our forgiveness of sin.
We suffer for many reasons…decisions we make (choices), to teach us or give us an experience to help others with same need.
Nothing else needed to add to Christs suffering to help with forgiveness of sin.
What do you think about Joyce Meyer?
Take this for what it's worth. I've listened to her for 20 years off and on. I have seen all the people calling her out for being a false teacher and their arguments. After listening for that long she has said that in the past she has said things that she now knows was wrong and she shouldn't have said. All of the people calling her out are using clips for 30 years or more and I know those particular things she has said she was wrong in teaching. So I have no problem listening to her but if you find something that you don't think is right then make your own choice.
I Agree!! I see Jesus through the BIBLE!
If not The Chosen what all tv shows is everyone here watching ?
Columbo, Murder She Wrote, Newhart, Andy Griffith, Monk, Green Acres, Clean movies, old movies, Christmas movies, Rosemary and Thyme are a few.
🙏🙏🙏
Hi, I do understand that god is all knowing and you can’t hide things from him. I have a lot of health issues and conditions which have affected my life. Back in November 23, I was baptised and confirmed in Salisbury cathedral, UK. The water at the fond went into ears and have had ear issues since. I have also started using insulin since February for diabetes which has improved my slight and other issues. I try to be calm and nice despite all that I struggle with on a daily basis. God works in places and ways we never know why things happen.
Someone in my life suggested watching the chosen etc. I am fully aware that there are cults out there. I do keep seeing people wasting there time promoting their cults.
There are employees who scare and freak me out in a newly opened store in my city. This includes an employee that is trying to be female and feel very freaked out by them. As they were on the tills on Monday, I chose not to buy things with them as a result.
