Pastor's Corner

  • Isaiah 43:21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise. There is a couple of moments in the life of every one of us the world seems to pass us by and we are forced to eat the bread of loneliness. No matter what stage a person is in at the time, or no matter who that person is we all have at some point and time felt the piercing pang that comes from the knowledge that in this busy world about us we are unnoticed, unneeded, or unwanted. There is no pain like the pain that comes when the world in general has found us to be expendable. The human heart cries out against the aching pain of loneliness! We must realize that the writers of the Bible in both the Old and New Testaments speak of a people that have a very special relationship to the Lord God Almighty. Peter realized this and was inspired to write in I Peter 2:9-10 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light; which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. In God’s kingdom there is no room for aloneness or loneliness, no room for feeling unnoticed, unneeded, or unwanted. We are members one of another, said Paul in Romans 12:5. You and I were not members of God’s family by virtue our natural birth. We became “His Own” through the covenant of Holy Baptism. Paul said this clearly when he said in Galatians 3:26-27. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. How the world wants to put you and me into their mold but the Lord has told us that we belong to Him and Him alone. So, the next time you begin to feel lonely or unappreciated remember who you are. You are a child of God and your Lord has told you that He will never leave you or forsake you. And He told you that He would stick closer than a brother. Pastor Lee Cruse who in those times that I feel unappreciated and lonely, look to Jesus and I realize that it is in Him that I live and move and have my being.

  • II Corinthians 4:4 whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. Last Sunday was a great service especially at the end when you came forward to dedicate yourself to pray for some that you love and care about. But I want you to realize the moment you stepped forward to say, “Lord, I am committing to pray for this person until they come to know Jesus and are saved.” I want you to know that an alarm went off in Hell that we had people who were committing to take from Satan those who are not believers. Understand why is this so hard. First, that person who you are praying for may be a nice person but Satan has blinded their mind that they don’t realize their need for Christ. The Bible identifies those people in John 8:44 as people of the devil, and in Acts 26:18 that they are under the authority of the Satan, Isaiah 14:17 says that they are prisoners of war. You now see why it is not an easy thing to reach people who have never come to Christ. The Bible goes on to tell us in Mark 3:27 that we must bind the strong man (which is the devil) if we are to get them out of this terrible situation. They are lost and many don’t realize how lost they are. As we take on this responsibility to see this person be saved, we must not give up but continue to pray. George Muller prayed every day for 53 years for five men to be saved and that last man gave his heart to Christ at Muller’s funeral. I would also tell you to be specific and call out their name. Jesus taught us to say unto the mountain to take up and cast into the sea, in other word tell the Lord “Lord, I am asking you to save, and then give Him their name” speak to the mountain! Once you have begun to pray for them understand there will be obstacles, and you may even see things get worse or that person you are praying for rebel. But that is why I gave you a piece of paper that you signed and when things begin to go south on you, you hold up that paper and say to Satan, “Satan I have given that person over to the Lord and I believe they will be saved.” One other thing Jesus told us in Matthew 18:19 "Again, I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. Did you hear what Jesus just told you? Then get another person that will hold you up, another prayer warrior that will continue with you to pray for the person that you love, and you can pray for someone for them too. Pastor Lee Cruse who believe that last Sunday our Church turned into a birthing room. And I expect that we will see in the new weeks many be birthed into the Kingdom of God. Keep Praying!

  • John 4:34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work. In the last few weeks, I have tried to give you a picture of your Heavenly Father. We have talked about your Father’s world, His love, His care, His promise and even our Father’s face. That’s our Fathers will. Today I want to give you another aspect of just who your Heavenly Father is. Remember that Jesus was God in the flesh and He told us that if we had seen Him, we have seen the Father. John chapter 4 is the story of the Samaritan women. The woman had left when she realized who Jesus was and told the Samaritans come see a man who told me everything I ever did. The disciples came back with food and they told Jesus to eat but Jesus said to them “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me.” I met men who fish and someone says about them “they would rather fish than eat!” Our Savior pretty much said the very same thing. Jesus would rather be pre-occupied with leading someone to Him rather than eating. He knew why His Father had sent Him into the world, and at that moment He was engaged in accomplishing that objective. Earlier Jesus has told the disciples that “He had need to go to Samaria”. Now, understand that Jews did not go to Samaria or even just go through Samaria but our Lord who knows everything knew that women would be at that well at noon in the hottest part of the day. Does this surprise you that our Lord would go out of His way to reach a soul that is lost? Did He not tell us of the shepherd who went after the Lost little lamb? Did He not tell us of the women who swept her house clean until she found that precious coin? And it was Jesus that told the story of the prodigal son and the father that ran to him when he came home pig stinking and broke when he had lost all of his father’s money. What was Jesus trying to get over to us in those three parables? That the main character in all those parables was God the Father. For Peter wrote II Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. Pastor Lee Cruse who believes that the night is far spent and the day is at hand so let us work while it is still light to win as many as we can.
