…inceputul unui Nou Inceput!

Cu multi ani in urma, Dumnezeu mi-a vorbit despre planurile pe care le are cu familia mea pentru o lucrare noua. Cu trecerea anilor aceasta s-a repetat de mai multe ori si pentru ca am avut indreazneala sa credem aceasta lucrare, Cel Rau ne-a pandit si a pus obstacole si bariere la fiecare pas. Uneori prin cei de langa noi, prin partenerii de business, uneori prin membrii familiei si alte ori, din cauza nevegherii lor spun, chiar prin biserica. Nu spun aceasta judecand sau vorbind de rau sau suparat ci pur si simplu ca adevar intamplat.

Incercarile si barierele veneau, mai ales in ultima vreme, ca pe banda rulanta dar noi continuam sa ne bazam pe ce ne-a vorbit Dumnezu si sa asteptam. De multe ori am fi renuntat la aceasta asteptare; de multe ori prietenii adevarati care ne inconjurau cu dragoste spuneau “destul”, e timpul sa faceti ceva. Slujitori a lui Dumnezeu din America dar si din Romania, incercand sa ne incurajeze, spuneau ca nu sunt “normal”. Si cand ne era parca mai greu si gata, gata sa renuntam, venea din nou, ca o oaza de speranta, o nou mangaiere de la Dumnezeu …”asteapta”.

Si am continuat sa asteptam….si asteptarea nu a fost zadarnica.

Fara nici un plan stabilit, fara nici o incercare de a porni ceva sau de a grabi ceva, fara a avea o agenda propriu-zisa, la inceputul lunii februarie Dumnezeu a planificat o intalnire intre mine si alti doi pastori, unul American, Pastorul Kevin Wade si altul Hispanic, Pastorul Joe Gutierrez. In urma acestei intalniri ne-am despartit cu aceasi durere in inimi si aceasi intrebare in minte: FACEM CE NE-A INSPIRAT DUMNEZEU sau spunem NU provocarii?

Si multumind lui Dumnezeu, am acceptat necunoscutul, neuitand ca Dumnezeu mi-a zis cu multi ani in urma despre planurile unei lucrari noi. In cateva zile am anuntat bisericile in care fregventam ca Dumnezeu ne-a chemat la o alta lucrare. Am continuat sa ne intalnim, sa ne rugam, sa cerem calauzire si impreuna am pornit la un drum nou intr-o lucrare noua: REDEMPTION INTERNATIONAL.

Deviza noastra va fi: Existam (ca Dumnezeu prin noi) sa SALVEZE pe cei pierduti (Psalm 44:22, Proverbe 24:11), sa RASCUMPERE pe cei cazuti (Tit 2:14), sa RESTABILEASCA ce este distrus (Isaia 61:3)  si sa TRIMITA in lucrare pe cei credinciosi (Matei 28:19,  Efeseni 4:12).

Nu biserica Romaneasca, nu biserica Americana, nu biserica Hispanica; fara traditii, obiceiuri sau dogme de zona geografica; cu slujbe in limba engleza si cu libertatea Duhului Sfant sa intervina cand vrea si cum vrea.

Nu va fi o ALTA biserica in Phoenix, ci va fi o ALTFEL de biserica in Phoenix. Nu vrem sa facem competitie cu celelalte biserici, romanesti, americane sau hispanice, nu vrem sa copiem celelalte biserici, ci vrem sa ducem Cuvantul Evangheliei direct la cele mai defavorizate categorii de oameni din jurul nostru.

Sunt comunitati de oameni care in ziua de astazi nu-si pot permite “luxul” sa vina intr-o biserica; nu au haine pentru biserica, nu au bani pentru biserica, nu au masini pentru parcarile bisericilor.

Dar si pentru ei a murit Hristos si atat timp cat traiesc in trup au sansa la mantuire ca fiecare dintre noi.

Si pentru ca ei nu pot veni la biserici, incercam sa indeplinim literal Marcu 16:15-16:  “Duceti-va in toata lumea si propovaduiti Evanghelia la orice faptura. Cine va crede si se va boteza va fi mantuit…”

Ne vom duce la ei, familii despartite, drogati, alcoolici, homosexuali, divortati, copii rebeli, pocaiti cazuti….TOTI AU DREPTUL LA A DOUA SANSA!

Evrei 3:15: “Astazi, daca auziti glasul Lui, nu va impietriti inimile…”…si noi vrem ca si ei sa auda glasul Lui ASTAZI.

Din acest peisaj stim ca nu vor lipsi impotrivitorii, si nu vor fi putini, dar ne rugam ca Dumnezeu sa le deschida ochii ca lui Ghehazi altadata sa vada si ei ca Dumnezeu este in controlul tuturor lucrurilor.

Pornim intr-o lucrare noua si intrebari vor fi:

Avem emotii? Multe…

Avem indrazneala? Cat ne da Domnul…

Avem frica? Nu….

Avem regrete? Deloc…

Avem credinta? Indeajuns sa-L credem pe Domnul pe cuvant…

Avem nevoie de support rugaciune? Da…

La inceputul lunii februarie toti trei pastori ne-am intalnit pentru intiia oara.

Intr-o luna Dumnezeu ne-a ajutat si astazi, 3 Martie 2013, deschidem prima slujba a bisericii REDEMPTION INTERNATIONAL.

Multumim lui Dumnezeu pentru planul Sau si pentru ca ne-a ales sa fim parte a acestui plan de lucrare.

Dumnezu sa ne binecuvinteze si sa va binecuvinteze!!!!!

Occult Rituals at Super Bowl 2013…

“When tempted no one should say God is tempting me for God can not be tempted by evil nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when by our own evil desires are we drawn away and enticed” James 1:13-14

“It is stunning, that in her interviews, Beyonce actually admit in her own words, how she feels possess by a spirit entering her. Listen carefully to what she is saying and compare it to what the Word of God says about demonic possessions. We must remember, that God’s Word is our only reliable source of truth about Satan & his demons.They’ re real! Don’t forget how our Lord Jesus Christ spoke to them, rebuked them & He bind them and cast them out. He wouldn’t have done that, if they didn’t exist.” by anonymous

Who is the Bride of Christ?

WRITE BY ARTIE KOFFER

The apostle Paul NEVER referred to the Body of Christ as the Bride of Christ, Sheep, Holy Nation or Priests, this doctrine has come about because of mixing the truth given to John & Paul whose apostleship were different in calling & ministry.

When reading scripture, Israel is always referred to as Sheep Holy Nation & Priests.

There is NO such thing in scripture as Replacement Theology, the Church, the Body of Christ did NOT replace Israel, Israel is a Chosen Nation unto God and will Always be one. 

Replacement Theology came about from them that call themselves British Israelites, there is no such human animal, Biblical Israelites and Jews are one and the same people.

Scripture says, the Lord came to the (lost) Sheep of the house of Israel, the word lost does NOT literally mean lost, and couldn’t be found, lost means scatted, the Lord knows where every one is.

Israel as a Nation had Priests & Kings. Israel failed to be a Holy Nation, Israel will be a Holy Nation in the future.

In scripture when the Lord addresses Israel He always refers to her in the feminine way. Spiritually speaking the Lord was married to Israel but Israel never had a real marriage supper.

In Ezekiel 16:8 The Lord entered a marriage covenant with Israel.

In Jeremiah 3:14 The Lord said He was married to Israel, the Lord is the Bridegroom and Israel is the Bride.

Jeremiah 3:14 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: – Spiritually speaking the Lord gave Israel a Divorce.

In Jeremiah 3:8 The Lord is the Bridegroom, He gave His Bride Israel a Divorce.

Jeremiah 3:8 And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.

In the future Christ will remarry His Bride Israel & Israel will have her first live marriage supper as stated Revelation 19:7 8 & 9.

In Hosea 2:7 The Lord is saying, she = Israel will return to her first husband, her first husband = Christ, the Lord = Bridegroom, Spiritually speaking Israel will remarry her Bridegroom = Christ.

Also in Hosea 2:9, 19 & 20 The Lord is Spiritually saying, He = Christ, Christ will remarry Israel…And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.

The key word in Hosea 2:9 and 19, 20 is “betroth,” the Lord, the Bridegroom, Christ will spiritually remarry Israel.

Isaiah 62:5 For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.

In Isaiah 62:5 Thy sons = Israel, the Bridegroom = the Lord, the Bridegroom rejoiceth over the Bride, the Bride = Israel, God rejoice over thee, thee = Israel.

Revelation 19:7-9 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

Verse (8) And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

Verse (9) And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb, And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

The word (us) in verse (7) above is referring to Israel:
The word him = Christ,
The word Lamb = Christ,
His wife = Israel,
Lamb = Bridegroom = Christ,
His wife = the Bride = Israel—>This will be a real marriage supper.

In Revelation 21:9 It say’s, come hither, I will shew thee the Bride, the Lamb’s Wife.

John is saying in Revelation 21:9 – come hither, I will shew thee the Bride, the Lamb’s Wife.

Christ is the Lamb, who is the Lamb’s wife? The lamb’s wife has to be Israel, Israel was spiritually Married to the Lamb/Christ.

Revelation 21:10 is showing where the Bride and Bridegroom will reside, they will reside in the New Jerusalem that decends out of heaven from God…. the 12 tribes of ISRAEL and the 12 apostles will live in that New Jerusalem.

In Jeremiah 2:32 The Lord is still spiritually married to Israel, Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet “my people” have forgotten “me” days without number, me = Christ my people = Israel,

Jeremiah is telling Israel we are His Bride, why have you forsaken the Bridegroom days without number, the Lord is showing Israel that they have forgotten that they were Spiritually Married to the Lord, Israel = Bride.

Jeremiah 7:34 Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.

In Jeremiah 7:34 The Lord is saying, He is the Bridegroom & the voice of the Bride = Israel.

Jeremiah 16:9 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

In Jeremiah 16:9 The Lord is saying the same as in Jeremiah 7:34 & 25:10.

In Jeremiah 25:10 the bridegroom = Christ, voice of the bride = Israel.

Jeremiah 25:10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.

Jeremiah 33:11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the Bridegroom and the voice of the Bride the voice of them that shall say, Praise the Lord of host: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the “land,” as at the first, saith the LORD.

In Jeremiah 33:11 the Lord said, For I will cause to return the captivity of the “land,” as at the first, saith the LORD…the Body OF Christ inherits NO land, the Body OF Christ has a Heavenly HOME, … that land = the land Israel will inherit, that land was promised to her.

AGAIN, In Jeremiah 33:11 It is very clear who the Bride and Bridegroom is, the Bridegroom = Christ = Lord, and the Bride = Israel.

In Joel 2:16 It is also very clear who the Bride & Bridegroom is, it say’s, let the Bridegroom go forth of his chamber and the Bride out of her closet, the Bridegroom = Christ = Lord, His chamber is referring to the Holy of Holy’s where the High Priests would enter, the Bride out of her closet is referring to the chambers where the High Priests would reside.

Read Ezekiel 40:45 & 46, that explains the chambers where the High Priests would reside.

John 3:29 He that hath the “bride” is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

John 3:29 above is saying, He = God = Christ is the Bridegroom . . . the word “Friend” = Israel.

Revelation 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

John in Revelation 18:23 above is saying, the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee, that candle = the Golden Candelabra that Israel use to light. . .the word thee = Christ. . . the voice of the bridegroom = Christ, and of the bride = Israel, God is talking to Israel in Revelation 18:23.

Revelation 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

John in Revelation 21:2 above is saying, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. . .that New City is where the 12 tribes and 12 Apostle to Israel will reside. . .God is preparing that City for His Bride, His Bride = Israel, Israel will be living in that New City. . .adorned for her husband, who is the husband? The Bridegroom = the husband = Christ.

Revelation 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

What is John saying in Revelation 22:17? John he is saying, the Holy Spirit and the Bride/Israel is saying come, let him/Israel, take the water of life freely.

Revelation 21:9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife.

John is saying in Revelation 21:9 above. . .come, let me show you the the Bride, the Lamb’s wife, John is pointing to the the New City that comes down from God out of heaven…that New City is where Israel the Bride is gonna reside with the Bridegroom/Christ. 

The BRIDE OF CHRIST = Israel, the Bridegroom = Christ.

===============

A few things to remember:

# 1, When reading scripture, context is the KEY to understanding scripture.

# 2, Knowing to whom the Book was written to.

Acts 3:21 = Prophecy = Israel…Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began, the key word is spoken.

Romans 16:25 = Mystery = the body of Christ…Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret since the world began, the key words are kept secret since the world began…the words my gospel = is the gospel the risen Lord gave to Paul.

Hopefully what you read has given you some insight, will add more as the Lord gives me more to see.

Rarely if ever do we find ourselves in a situation where Jesus remains our focus even though our entourage includes some important persons, even unreachable superstars whom you would might see only on TV, or read about in the newspapers, but cannot reach them in any other way.

Well, I am going to tell you about such a superstar; a superstar who impressed, me and who, through his demeanor, gave us in our group a lesson in humility as rare as I have ever seen.

One of my sons, happened to attend one of the valley churches, where he met Tim Tebow and heard Tim’s testimony.

During his testimony in the church, one of the questions from the public, was this:

–        Tell us the one thing that had the greatest impact on your life?

This is Tim Tebow’s answer:

–        I was playing one of the decisive games for…

Acuma, de la o bucata de vreme alerg mai putin si ma gandesc mai mult. Stau si ma uit la oameni si am vazut multe fete, unele triste. Am vazut oameni veseli. Am vazut oameni care sunt imbracati bine, arata frumosi. Am vazut oameni care stralucesc in conversatii. Am vazut oameni la care alti oameni privesc si spun; Ce om, ce realizari.

When The Ethic meet The Kindness…

Indianapolis Teen Walks 10 Miles for Job Interview and Gets Hired by Papa Roux

Indianapolis Teen Walks 10 Miles for Job Interview and Gets Hired by Papa Roux

So while I’m outside putting down massive quantities of ice melt, a young kid walked through the parking lot headed west. He asked me how far it was to 10th and Sherman.

I told him it was quite a way away. At least 6 or 7 miles. I suggested that he would be far better off on the bus then on foot, especially in all this ice and slush. He thanked me and continued on.

He could have asked me for money for a bus. In fact I quite expected him to. He didn’t. He just started walking.

15 minutes later, as we were driving down 10th street to head to Strange Brew, we saw him still waking down 10th. He was not yet to Franklin Road.

I told Colleen Roux to pull over, and I called to him to get in. As we were driving, we asked him about his journey.

Jhaquiel was waking from 42nd and Post to an interview at 10th and Sherman. For a potential (but not guaranteed) minimum-wage job. In this weather. Walking, because he couldn’t afford the bus. He had actually planned his time well and the interview was still 2 hours away.

We drove him to 10th and Sherman. He was extremely thankful and said so. I got his telephone number and told him to keep his interview, but I would see if there was a way to hire him, so his daily trek to work would be 3 miles instead of 10. I also asked him if he had eaten today, and he said he hadn’t. I gave him money for lunch and dropped him at the 10th and Sherman Dairy Queen. I think he was in shock.

So, he doesn’t know it yet, but he starts with us on Monday. It’s been a while since I’ve met someone so young with a work ethic like that!

And the next time somebody hands me a sob story about needing money for this or that, because they really want to make their lives better… I hope to be able to introduce them to Jhaquiel. 🙂

FIRST ANNIVERSARY a blogului personal “ENCOURAGES” !!!

Acum un an, pe 24 Februarie 2012, emotionat scriam primul articol, inaugural, al blogului personal “Encourages”.

Cateva concluzii si ganduri dupa un an.

In primul rand multumesc lui Dumnezeu pentru ajutorul si inspiratia data in alegerea celor mai bune subiecte (cel putin asa cred eu…). 

Apoi, multumesc familiei pentru acceptarea timpului consumat in fata calculatorului, timp uneori luat din timpul familiar.

Multumesc vizitatorilor care au citit articolele publicate si celor care, timid uneori,  au raspuns cu provocari pozitive, incurajari si comentarii pe seama celor scrise.

Multumesc celor care au respectat recomandarile date in articolul inaugural, inclusiv celor care din cauza acestor recomandari si-au “muscat limba” si s-au abtinut in a face comentarii “urate”.

Apreciez aceasta si in acelasi timp promit ca linia acestui blog sa ramana neschimbata: articolele cele mai multe vor fi pentru incurajare, vor fi opinii personale, vor contine anunturi de ordin general si voi pastra mai departe recomandarile pentru comentarii. 

Asa sa-mi ajute Dumnezeu!!!!!

Un nou blog, inca un blog la orizont si stiu ca “toti abia il asteapta” intrebandu-se: ce-o mai vrea sa zica si el?

Raspunsul e simplu: eu? nimic…… vizitatorii? incearca……Dumnezeu? TOTUL !!!

Adevarul este ca ce mai poti spune nou cand in blogosfera romaneasca se gasesc inregistrate 63817 bloguri? Doar petrecand o zi pe fiecare blog si nerepetandu-te, ai avea nevoie de vreo 174 de ani sa le cuprinzi pe toate….multe, putine…judecati singuri.

The worth of our lives comes not in what we do, but by WHO WE ARE !

A well-known speaker started off his seminar holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, “Who would like this $20 bill?” Hands started going up. He said, “I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this.” 

He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill. He then asked, “Who still wants it…?” Still the hands were up in the air. “Well,” he replied, “What if I do this?” And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. “Now, who still wants it?” Still the hands went into the air.

“My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20. Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We may feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. 

Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE. 

You are special-Don’t EVER forget it.” If you do not pass this on, you may never know the lives it touches, the hurting hearts it speaks to, or the hope that it may bring. Count your blessings, not your problems.

Worship is not a matter of feelings….

Write by Douglas Small on February 20, 2013

Recently, in a meeting of prayer leaders, I began to share regarding our ‘familiarity’ with God, the use of intimate language without any reference to God’s ‘otherness’ – and I will never forget the look of shock that registered on faces. It was as if I was saying something they had never heard before. In fact, as I persisted with the idea of approaching a God who was ‘past finding out’ it became clear that I was taking some of them into new territory.

Frankly, we have become too familiar with God. Intimacy is in; reverence is out. Listen to the praise music. It is almost completely devoid terms that describe God’s transcendence. The wonderful and rich theology of the old hymns is rarely heard, at least in Pentecostal churches. It is forty-minutes of ‘everybody on your feet, and put your hands together for Jesus.’ It is not a worship service, but a ‘pep rally.’ YHWH is now presented as ‘daddy’ God; and Jesus as our buddy – or lover, who is greeted with a ‘sloppy wet kiss.’ Ron Auch, a prayer leader, who I dare not impugn with this article, noted in a conversation, that the level of intimate language in praise music, language which we should note as, at least in some cases, inappropriate or border-line so, is a manifestation of people who are attempting to do publically, what is only appropriate privately. Public worship is attempting to compensate for the almost total lack of a private regular prayer life. Prayer does involve loving God and letting Him love us; there is a level of inexpressible intimacy in our relationship with God. Some things appropriate in private prayer and worship, are not necessarily appropriate in public worship. Bottom line – there must be a ‘private’ component to ‘public’ worship and prayer. Together, we sing declaratively, we affirm our theology, we offer praise at a different level. Privately, God deals with us in ways that break our hearts; or cause us to exult in passionate personal worship.

We now have a one-dimensional and almost exclusively emotional connection with God reflected in only in our public worship and prayer; and it is far too shallow. Worship must involve the heart and the head, as should prayer. Worship is not a matter of our feelings; it rises out of Scripture, and lays hold of God’s action in history. What is happening now in the praise and worship movement is promoting a less than reverent view of God. It is promulgating cheap grace. Few take off their shoes and tip-toe. We lift up unclean hands. We sing through unsanctified lips. We rush into a house of worship without the preparation of hearts and minds, as if we running by Grandpas house on the way to the lake, with little or no lifestyle impact. We kiss God, tell Him we love Him, thank Him for still being around, and rush off to the important matters in our life. Church services assure us by songs and sermons that all is well – God loves us, no matter how unfaithful and naughty we have been. Truth is dead; love has smothered it. Even Santa Claus keeps a list; but not the modern God. He has chronic amnesia, to our benefit. But does He?

This superficial, single-dimension of God is deadly. It is the essence of worldliness. It is a religious drug to which we are now culturally addicted; and it keeps us from seeing a whole God – one who is both love and truth, and utterly holy; and therefore we are prevented from understanding the full picture of justification and sanctification; of consecration and sacrificial service. So we have brushes with the Spirit, rather than transforming encounters in the Spirit, patterned on the Bible. We are numbed with the superficial lyrics and feel-good praise music. It actually prevents us from feeling real conviction and being motivated to get well spiritually. On this drug of superficial and syrupy worship, the Church is starving and dying; too anemic to do battle; and yet falsely feeling too well to get help.

“Le fel putem spune că înainte aveai de ales între biserică și casa funerală… acum că unii au adus morga în biserică nu trebuie să mai alegem. Nu știu cui trebuie să mulțumim pentru asta.” Petru Lascau

Petru Lascău's avatarpaşi spre lumină

barbierii barbosilor

Controvesele și disputele recente născute din plecarea de la Metanoia, Arad, a pastorului Cristian Barbosu au fost din nou un exemplu clar de intoleranță și incapacitate de dialog creștin. Acuzații nefondate și nedovedite, calomnii din auzite de la cineva „de încredere”, discreditare și asasinare de caracter… pe scurt o întreagă recuzită de a distruge viața și lucrarea unor oameni.

Se spune că un aventurier american a găsit într-o zi un indian ascultând cu urechea la pământ, în timp ce borborosea: „O căruță cu patru cai, doi negri unul alb și unul galben…” Omul era mai mult decât uimit. Să asculți așa cu urechea la pământ și să ști și culoarea cailor… Nu mai văzuse așa ceva. „Cum poți să ști și culoarea cailor?” a întrebat el uluit. Ridicându-se cu greu de jos, indianul i-a răspuns: „Cum să nu știu? Căruța aceea tocmai a trecut peste mine!”

Am simpatie pentru Cristian…

Pastorul Florin Ianovici la Radauti…..

ANUNTUL ORIGINAL POSTAT PE SITE-UL BISERICII BETEL RADAUTI:

Va invitam vineri, 22 februarie, ora 19:00, la intâlnirea zonala a tinerilor Crestini din Bucovina, la Biserica Betel din Radauti. Invitati speciali sunt fratele Florin Ianovici, vicepresedintele Fundatiei “Ciresarii” si grupul Evangelion. Sambata, 23 februarie, intalnirea va fi de la aceiasi ora, cu aceiasi invitati la Marginea, la Oastea Domnului. 

Tema intalnirii va fi: “Nu doar un simplu lut”. “Cuvîntul vorbit de Ieremia din partea Domnului si care suna astfel: „Scoala-te si pogoara-te în casa olarului; acolo te voi face sa auzi cuvintele Mele!” Cînd m-am pogorît în casa olarului, iata ca el lucra pe roata. Vasul pe care-l facea n-a izbutit, cum se întîmpla cu lutul în mîna olarului. Atunci el a facut un alt vas, cum i-a placut lui sa-l faca. Si Cuvîntul Domnului mi-a vorbit astfel: „Nu pot Eu sa fac cu voi ca olarul acesta casa a lui Israel? zice Domnul. Iata, cum este lutul în mîna olarului, asa sînteti voi în mîna Mea, casa a lui Israel!” Ieremia 18:1-6

Povestiri adevarate – Iulian Siminiuc

iulian

Este condamnat in 1996 pentru crima la 25 ani. Redusa apoi la 15 ani, renunta la sinuciderea care ii dadea ocol si in data de 3 ianuarie 2000 se intalneste cu Dumnezeu si se hotareste sa-L urmeze.  Isi schimba viata radical si este eliberat pentru buna purtare dupa 11 ani si trei luni. Acum se reintoarce din nou in penitenciare dar nu ca detinut ci ca Predicator si Misionar…

O povestire inspiratoare si datatoare de speranta pentru oricine; si pentru detinutii care traiesc o drama ingrozitoare dupa gratii dar si pentru cei liberi care pot intinde o mana de ajutor pentru recuperarea celor napastuiti de soarta.

Vizionati marturisirea sa:

Cantare pentru….inima!

rodi's avataragnus dei - english + romanian blog

cu multumiri lui Manuela pentru aceasta cantare minunata! Versurile de la http://www.versuri.ro/ Video uploaded by Claw jkr

Cînd gînduri negre se frămîntă cu grămada înlăuntrul meu,

mîngîierile Tale îmi înviorează sufletul. Psalmul 94:19

woman in storm

Mai trimite-mi Doamne, incurajari..

1.Ma simt ca o frunza.. purtata de vant..
Ca o trestie franta..pe malul unui lac..
Ca un muc..care abia mai fumega..
Dar fara Domnul..mult, mult prea sarac..

2.Furtuna e mare iar barca..mi-e inecata..
Nu mai pot vasli..as vrea, sa ajung la mal..
Ma uit in jurul meu si vad, doar barci scufundate..
Mai Vino odata, sa nu ma pierd in lac..

REFREN :Mai trimite-mi Doamne X 3
Incurajari…
Cand mi-e greu pe cale, nu mai am rabdare..
Mi-ai spus sa Te chem, cand imi este greu..

3.Azi e clipa sa Te strig..
E momentul sa Te chem, in ajutor..
Nu vreau sa Te pierd Isuse,
Nu vreau sa Te pierd, caci prea mult…
