STANDING

Thoughts For Today-Thursday-11/08/12 Show Details THURSDAY- Waking up to, and with three of my favorites, God, my wife, and of course,, my coffee, and they are in that order also,, now how about that!!! I awoke with a tale to follow as I write this morning and please read it and read it slowly, and understand that I feel it, no matter what.....this nation is beginning to be in a siege.. if we all don't throw away our worldly wants, and get on our knees, and ask for our sanction now, not tomorrow, but now... please read,and think very carefully.... Prayer Request : For a good friend of mind who is having heart surgery today,,, hopefully a two day in and out, Amanda Newby, going to have two arteries cauterized. please pray for Amanda. Kristian,, who is being persecuted, and also her neighbors by portraying a tiny white wooden cross in their yards.. where , I do not know, but pray, for they will, win, but need your support on this. Thanks to the good "Samaritan" at the Macon Hospital ,with the wheel chair, much needed, and was listening, and reacted with no hesitation... thank you "Good Samaritan". STANDING ! I received a call yesterday from a young lady, almost in tears ,but glad , she had found me on the phone, for she needed to talk , if only for a short moment... She had moved somewhere around here,,, and her new yard at her new house,, had a tiny white cross in it. She explained she was so proud of that cross in her yard, for she had some difficulty before she had moved, and then also noticed more little crosses, down through her neighborhood, not a lot, but some...and she said she marveled, she had found the right place,,,,THEN , her cross got up-rooted and was thrown across her yard,,she found it, put it back,,,then again and again, it was up-rooted, and she would find it in the yard , but thrown,, and no animal had gotten hold of it, for it was still intact , and in good shape. She said , this worried her, and she again, and again re-hammered it in the ground. She came home and it was found to be gone , but this time, broken, she said, she felt like her old world was trying to follow her.. she was so afraid, but that cross had brought her back to Jesus, and so she placed her faith in Him, and then went and asked one of the neighbors , where did this cross come from, they told her of "The Cross" Ministry here, and she found us, but we were not at home , for she came after two things, a cross, and to ask for prayer ,,, to with-stand these intruders, and for God to contiue to give her strength... and she noticed my phone #, so we got to talk, she will be coming back soon to talk in person. She talked to her neighbors with the crosses, and theyhad the same problem, but no crosses broken, but pulled up and thrown, here and there,, now this is where it starts, IF WE DON'T STAND UP... for our beliefs, just as this young girl is doing.. for she moved, and saw the cross and I believe that when she said , that is where I need to be, back to and with Jesus, I believesatan went wild, going into a throwing rage,, as he had done to the neighbors , with no success, and now with another ,young but determined, so I told her , to have faith, and we had plenty of crosses, and we would continue to keep one in her yard, but we must,, as above,,, STAND WITH HER, IN PURE FAITH OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST,,AND AGAINST SATAN,! Lord,. I ask You to protect this young girl, and all who stand up for You, and to give us the strength to stand for You, no matter the odds against us, even if it is our lives,,, John HIcks Servant , who will stand, and not back down.... and we must all do this before we lose this Nation... pray, come back to Him, and then stand our grounds,, plant our cross of faith, the cross that dwells with-in us, and is as pure as He!! So make your choice today, TO STAND!!!
