That I May Know Him

And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. ~ 1 John 5:20 (KJV)

Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces? Jeremiah 23:29

Turn your radio on...

On Sunday of October the 5th, Bible Baptist Church in Montreal, Canada, preached the word of God on the Radio for the first time. We now have a radio ministry that will be airing on Sunday mornings at 12:30pm on radio station WCHP 760 AM which airs out of Vermont.

Nowadays, for the most part, it's junk on the radio...junk that glorifies sin and pomotes wickedness. You know what I'm talking about... And of course, we ask "what's wrong with the world"... The world has rejected the word of God and its Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ. The world has chosen to llive to flesh and die in sin than die to flesh and live in Jesus Christ. Mock the Bible if you want to. The word of God is so far ahead of you. Ephesians 2:2 calls the devil "the prince of the power of the air". Who controls the air today? The devil. He wants you to listen to his program in order to keep you away from the Bible and keep you in bondage of sin. My freind, sin is not cool....it's bondage and it pays you back. Romans 6:23 says "For the wages of sin is death". But thank God there is a Saviour that can make you free because the rest of the verse reads "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord". Amen. I'm so glad I trusted Jesus Crhist as my Saviour and I have that eternal life. You can have it to. Believe on Jesus Christ! Put your trust in Him!

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. Acts. 16:31

If you haven't trusted Jesus Christ as the one and only Saviour, your soul hangs in the balance. This is the MOST important decision you'll ever make. Don't die in sin. Turn your radio on every Sunday at 12:30pm and hear something pure and something true at once. Turn your radio on to heard the word of God and let the word of God work in you. Better yet, get you a Bible and lay hold of God's holy word.
Thy word is true from the beginning...Pslam 119:160
The word of God, which effectually worketh also in you...1 Th 2:13

The right time

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven…Ecc 3:1

A few years ago, the Lord burdened my heart to help my Pastor with the church secretarial work, however, I had just finished school and I didn’t feel ready to take on that burden. I was still young and had no experience working in an office. Instead, God took care of me and provided me with a good job working with attorneys. During that time, I still managed to do a few tasks from home for the church, but as the church kept growing, there was definitely a need for a full time church secretary. Last January, I started earnestly seeking God’s will. I’ll make a long story short, but after 3 and half years of working at the lawfirm, I finally quit my job in late august and started working at the church. The lord also worked it out with our school. There was a need for a French teacher, and since I studied in French, I also have the blessing of teaching our children French.

In the beginning, I really felt overwhelmed. There is so much for me to learn, and all of a sudden I felt like maybe I wasn’t the right person for the job. But God’s word is always comforting. I remembered Ecc 3:1 and how I had wanted to do what I’m doing now, but it just wasn’t the right time. I remembered all the circumstances during the year that led me to the church. Working at the lawfirm equipped me for the church work. Why would God not give me wisdom to do what He wants me to do? Doesn’t He promise that if we ask for widom, He would provide?

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. James 1:5

I’m also blessed in that my Pastor is very appreciative. In the short period I’ve been working for him, I can’t count how many times he’s told me he appreciates me. I know there is a need for a church secretary and I’m honored that God has chosen me. But I also know that there is a need in my heart to grow more in the Lord. I need to trust Him more, I need to obey Him more, and I need to love Him more.

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for teaching me how to trust you more, to obey you more and to love you more.
