I Want To Live My Life For You.



Only One God

Only One God Who's Made Heaven and Earth.
Only One God Who is Really Real.
Only one God Who Hears Our Faintest Cry.
Only One God  Who Knows How We Feel.  

Only One God, Yes, Only One God.
Nothing Greater, Nothing Higher
ThanThe Almighty Power of God.
No, Not earth, Not Wind, Nor Fire.

Only one God Who Has All the Answers;
Only one God Who Knows You By Name.
Only One God Who Knows Everything You've Done.
Only One God Who Gave His Only Son.

Only One God, Yes, Only One God.
Nothing More, Just, Nothing More True.
ThanThe Almighty Wisdom of God,
And His Will and Purpose For You.

Luck Has Nothing to Do With It - Song




Luck Has Nothing to Do With It

 

God sent his Son; it was all about Love.

Jesus paid the price with his holy blood.

It was all about Love; it was all about Love.

He was sinless and pure a snow-white dove.

 

Luck had nothing to do with it because...

We can not live good enough you see.

It’s only through Jesus that we can be.

Saved and washed from sin eternally.

 

It was all about Love; it was all about Love.

Luck had nothing to do with it because...

It has everything to do with God’s love for me and you.

 

He cried, he died, His blood was shed for all.

It was all about Love; it was all about Love.

Luck had nothing to do with it because...

It has everything to do with God’s love.

 

You say, maybe I have lived good enough.

But our Savior has already paid the price.

Luck had nothing to do with it because;

You can know that you have eternal life.

 

It was all about Love; it was all about Love.

Luck had nothing to do with it because...

It has everything to do with God’s love for me and you.

God Has a Purpose for You




God Has a Purpose for You

 Our Father has a purpose for you.
He loveth his sons and daughters.
He leadeth in paths of righteousness.
He leadeth beside still waters.

Walk in the ways of Godly wisdom.
Follow God's instructions each day.
Ask and you will find his will for you
Acknowledge Him in all you do.

Not my will but yours be done, dear Lord.
This should be our main goal in Christ.
Live and love in the name of Jesus.
Make him the center of your life.

He is our Shepherd we shall not want.
He is our comfort and our friend.
He will show us his way and his will.
By faith, we will find our purpose in Him.
 
Chorus:
God has a purpose for you.
God has a purpose for me.
We need to look to him in prayer.
That He will lead us safely there.

That we won’t be distracted.
Don’t let the devil have his way.
That we won’t be turned away.
Don’t let the devil have his way.

God has a purpose for you.
God has a purpose for me.
We need to look to him in prayer.
That He will lead us safely there.

That we won’t be distracted.
Don’t let the devil have his way.
That we won’t be turned away.
Don’t let the devil have his way.

God has a purpose for you.
God has a purpose for me.

He is our Shepherd we shall not want.
He is our comfort and our friend.
He will show us his way and his will.
By faith, we will find our purpose in Him.

Growing In Faith - A Guide #3


 

Growing In Faith - A Guide

The bible teaches us that without faith it is impossible to please God. Without faith, it is impossible to be saved.  Without faith, it’s impossible to have your prayer answered.  Without faith, there are no righteous miracles.  God says if we do not have faith not to expect anything from him. 

It is through faith that we grow by obedience, faith will cause you to obey because you truly have faith in what the bible teaches.  Rebellion to God’s word and to what God wants us to do has shown that you have chosen not to believe God. 

If we truly believe something we act upon it.  If you believe you believe something is going to hit you in the head, you will move out of its way.  Your moving is evidence that you believe.  If you believe what God says then there will be evidence of that belief.

Romans 10: 10 

[10] For with the heart, man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation. 

When you truly believe you will have righteous actions that come along with that belief. 

God teaches us that just a little faith can cause great things to happen. 

Luke 11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 

For us to live of faith we must first accept Christ into our heart and life by faith.  By faith you will seek, you will knock and you will ask.  Once you have trusted Christ, Christ lives within you and will help guide you in every choice you make.   

Sometimes it will be hard to do what’s right and by faith, you will do what God wants you to do and God will get you through. 

Life is not easy and your faith will be tried and because you have the comforter, you can communicate to God your struggle, your grief, and any doubt that you may have.  By faith, you will stay faithful to him through both good and bad.  Good and bad have happened to every person, but a person of faith will continue to trust God and obey him, through it all.  You grow by continuing by faith, to learn of God, to obey God, to praise God, and to depend on God.

By faith resist what is wrong and cling to our God our King.  Do not go back to the slavery of Egypt.  You are his child and you will never have peace in your sin.   Egypt is a picture of sin, slavery, and hell.  God has no pleasure in those who turn back in their unbelief.  The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.  If you have already turned in the wrong direction run back to God and repent. It may feel he’s far away, but he has never left you.  You left him.  By faith, return to God and he will hold you to his heart.  Just as a mother or father forgives their little one.   Faith brings actions of faith; it is through or successes and our failures that we grow in faith.  God shows us mercy as we believe and trust him.   I’m still learning every day.  Our problems change and through each problem, there is a new learning time.  Continue trusting God and obeying him.  Confess your doubts, your fears, and keep your hand in the hand of God.  Just as a small child wants to go off on his own, is in danger, so are we when we let go of God the Father’s hand to go do whatever we will.   God will chasten us because we belong to him. We need to fear him and turn back to him.  God says in…..

Revelations 3:19 - As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

Read your bible, grow in the truth and knowledge of the Lord.  Stay close to your church family, go to church, continue in prayer and resist the devil.  Confess your sin on a daily basis, pray for each other.  We are all in a spiritual battle.  There is an old song that says, “Keep your hand in the hand of the man that calms the sea.”  If you continue by faith in the things of God, you will know peace and you will know joy.

Matthew 25:23 
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

Jesus In Our Heart - A Guide # 2

                                                           3 Leaf Clover / Saint Patricks Day

Jesus In Our Heart

Baptism is a picture of what happens to you when you become saved.  We without Christ are dead in our sins.  Separated from God.  Once a person believes in the Lord Jesus Christ.  Something happens.  They become alive to God because Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit comes into their heart. 

When we are baptized, we are emersed under the water, buried in the likeness of Christ, and arising to new life in Christ Jesus.  It is a testimony and an example, to all, that we have been saved and have become born to God as his dear child.  We were dead to God, but now, made alive unto God. 

This is exactly what happens when we become born again. By faith, our sins are washed away.  The blood of Christ shed for us was applied upon the acceptance of Christ Jesus into our life.  We spiritually are risen into a new life and beginning.  We have been adopted into the family of God.

The Holy Spirit is Jesus in our hearts but is called the Comforter in scripture.   The comforter is with us and in us.  Jesus in our hearts.  We can pray and Jesus helps our feeble prayers, He speaks for us with perfect prayers even when we don’t know how to say what needs to be asked.  When you worship God, you can feel his presence with you.  He is there for you to help you through life’s troubles.

All acceptable good works are through Christ alone.  Our righteousness is as filthy rags to God.

Isaiah 64:6 ¶ But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags.  Good works of any kind are excepted by people.  They are commended and looked up to.  People normally reward people for doing good things.  Many are known for their wonderful gift of charity.  However, God does not accept our goodness as righteousness but as filthy rags.  That is why the crown we receive in heaven will be laid at the feet of Christ.  Christ within us and his working through us is the only righteousness accepted by God.  Not of good that I have done, but only what Christ has done through us.  That only happens if we accept Christ and the shedding of his blood for our sins. 

The Holy Spirit does not testify of himself, He testifies of Jesus.  This is why we pray in the name of Jesus Christ and do all things in Jesus Christ’s name. 

Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

 Colossians 3:23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;

God offers the gift of salvation to whoever wants it. 

John 3:15 -17 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life.

 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

 

Jesus Talks about the Comforter

John 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever;

 John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

 John 15:26 ¶ But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

 John 16:7 ¶ Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

John 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

Susan Nikitenko March 20th, 2022

Some lesson afterthoughts...

Jesus was baptized at thirty years old, as our example.  Not one baby was baptized by emersion or sprinkling in the bible.  Each person should understand what they are doing.  Baptism is the first step of obedience as a Christian.

The Little Candle Said





The Little Candle Said

 

The candle said in the wind.

I’m just a tiny light, a light so small.

I’m not sure if anyone;

Could see to get around with me at all.

 

I would be a guiding light.

If I were a star up in the night sky.

To those who are lost in sin.

Shining for Jesus as the time goes by.

 

I would shine upon the day.

Our trembling Savior drew his last breath.

The lightning flashed ‘cross the sky;

The elements grieved at our Savior’s death.

 

Jesus was dead, with bowed head.

He had no life, no thought, and no heartbeat.

Screams were heard in the darkness.

The earth shook and opened beneath their feet.

 

The candle said to the sky.

I’m just a tiny light, a light so small.

I’m not sure if anyone;

Could see to get around with me at all.

 

I would be a guiding light.

If I were a star up in the night sky.

To those who are lost in sin.

Shining for Jesus as the time goes by.

 

I would shine upon the day.

The angel rolled the stone from the tomb’s door.

To see that it was empty.

Now in Christ, there is life forevermore.

 

In the presence of angels.

Mary and others, their joy could be heard.

Jesus arose from the dead.

They ran to tell the others the good word.

 

Many miracles happened.

Many Saints arose from the open graves.

The unbelieving believed.

They were saved on that day, thank God, Jesus saves.

 

The candle said to the land.

I’m just a tiny light, a light so small.

I’m not sure if anyone;

Could see to get around with me at all.

 

I would be a guiding light.

If I were a star up in the night sky.

To those who are lost in sin.

Shining for Jesus as the time goes by.

 

Where I am needed, I’ll be.

I would give light in a place without light.

Not me, but Jesus they’ll see.

For his light is the light that will shine through me.

 

Then the little candle sang.

“This light of mine, I’m going shine for you.

Jesus’ help me give more light.

Help me, help others always see you.

The little candle was shining all along.


I changed the song to say Mary and others.  The bible does not say Martha was there.  I'm not going to change the audio.  If you would like for me to change it, let me know and I will change it.


Luke 24:10  It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles. (Martha could have been there)


Matthew 28:1-19

 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.   His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

 And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.

 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.


  Matthew 27: 50-54

  Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

 Matthew 27:51- 53

And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,

 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

Becoming God's Child - A Guide # 1


Becoming God’s Child

 

Many people want to say that because God made people from the beginning

that we are all God’s children.  However, the bible teaches us that because

 sin entered into the world through the sin of one man. (Adam) All men and

women are born into sin and know not God.  This is why we tell people the

Good News of Christ Jesus.  God sent his only begotten Son to die for our sins.

  God loves us that much that he made a way for people to be saved from the

 judgement to come.  He has given us the only way to be saved.  Jesus tells us

in scripture that HE IS The WAY.  There is a children’s song called “One Way

and Only One.”  When we believe what the bible says about Jesus giving his

life for us.  When we believe the Gospel of John 3:16 and believe in his resurrection.

 Then our heart becomes alive unto God.  Our heart, meaning, the very being of who

we are, understands for the first time, that God has given us the only way of salvation.

There is nothing within us that is good enough to earn salvation. Without the salvation

that God has offered to all, there would be no possible way to heaven for anyone. 

Without Christ, upon our death we would enter a hopeless tormenting hell that has

no end.  God loved us enough to make a way for that not to happen.  God’s not willing

that any should perish but that all should be saved.  He has provided the Way. 

The question is are you going his way or your own way. He tells us in his Word our

ways are the ways of death but his way is to life eternal.


 

Susan Nikitenko 2022

 

 John17:3

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God,

and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent

   Proverbs 14:12 ¶ There is a way which seemeth right unto a man,

but the end thereof are the ways of death.

  2 Peter 3:9

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise,

as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering

 to us-ward, not willing that any should perish,

 but that all should come to repentance.

   Romans 3:23

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

  2 Corinthians 4:3

But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

John 3:16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 

John 1:12 

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons ( or daughters) of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Saint Patrick Was A Slave


Testimony Of Saint Patrick

 

Saint Patrick was taken against his will from his family in Britain as a 16-year-old boy.  He was taken across the waters in a boat headed for Ireland.  There he was sold as a slave to a rich leader.  He was given the job of herding swine.  He toiled in slavery for six years.  His life of servitude was a time of great suffering and misery.  He lived in poverty, filth, and dirt.   Many times, He was desperately cold and hungry.  He described himself as a stone stuck in the mud.

When Patrick regained his freedom, he started preaching the gospel that Baptist preachers preach today.  Patrick found the Lord Jesus, sometime during the 6 years he was in slavery.  He confessed he did not know the true God as a 16-year-old boy, but while in a strange land, The Lord God opened his unbelieving eyes to the truth of the Gospel.  He confessed his sins to the Lord and turned his life over to the Lord God wholeheartedly.  God became a father to him and comforted him as a father does his children. 

He started loving the Lord God more and more.  The Spirit of God moved him to pray many prayers.  He prayed both day and night while in the forest and in the mountain herding his flock. He suffered severe cold, rain and frost.  The Lord helped him and he became eager to learn more and more.  He loved to think about God and God’s Word became a fire in his soul. 

Patrick was saved as a slave, the Holy Spirit greatly moved within his heart.  He became a preacher to the lost, the idol worshippers, the heathen of Ireland. 

He was recognized by the Catholics as a Saint because he lived blamelessly, but He was Baptist in his doctrine and beliefs. 

This is just a small bit of the testimony of Saint Patrick.  We can learn from his life and his struggles today.  We can understand that Patrick still had problems but God was there for him and comforted him through his sufferings.

 Romans 8:15 
For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to

fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

Daddy God

When We Become A Christian 

We are adopted into the family of God we become his child and He is our Father in heaven.

The comforter the Holy Spirit helps us through our troubles. Jesus abides with us.

Clovers are green living plants - 
When Christ saves us we become
 alive to God and are given everlasting life. The promise of heaven.

We should grow in faith and want to please God with our choices.
If we trust and obey we become stronger in our faith and will see prayers answered.

We are not saved by luck that we lived good enough, we are saved by believing and trusting Christ as our Saviour.  God paid the penalty for our sins.  He died in our place.  His blood was shed for us so we could be saved and live an everlasting life in heaven when we die.

Saint Patrick had a purpose for his life and became a preacher of the Gospel of Christ.

God has a purpose for you too.  You are young yet, but God can and will lead you in life as you ask him to direct your path.  When you make decisions ask God what he wants for you to do.  If you want what God wants then you know you will do well.  
 
Proverbs 3:6 
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

 Most of the snow is melted away, but the ground is really wet.  You know what that means don’t you. “Mud”.  It’s hard to keep your shoes clean and it sometimes can get tracked in your house – if you do not wipe your feet or take them off.  We need to wash our shoes off if they get muddy.

How many of you have a dog?  What if he gets out in the mud?  So you have to clean the dog off before he comes back into the house.   If you don’t he could make your house really dirty.

We have to wash our hands every day.  Cleansing our hands keeps germs from spreading.  We need to wash our hands if they get dirty.

We need to take a bath with water, soap, and a washcloth to keep ourselves clean and healthy. We need to wash up if we are not clean.

We need to wash our clothes so that we can have clean fresh smelling clothes to wear.

We have to cleanse our teeth by brushing them, So our breath won’t stink and so we will not get a cavity.  Flossing is important too, so cavities do not happen between your teeth. 

We need to keep our house clean. We need to wash our dishes.  We need to keep our cars clean.

These are good rules for us to stay happy and healthy.

 

I brought some things to help us think about our topic today.

Ask one of the children to choose something from the box.

Talk about each item in the box as they take turns choosing something

from the box.

This is the last thing in the box. -  The Bible helps us keep clean

Let's Remember this little Rhyme.

This is our poem for today.  Ha Ha

Read It and Heed It.  Read It and Heed It.

Let’s read our bible verse together. It is a verse about being clean.

Psalms 119: Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.

If time allows, go through and verbally fill in the blanks of each page.   

Our bible verse today talks about being clean.  Every Christian can apply this verse to their life.  

We need to keep our hearts and lives clean so that our relationship with God and others is not hindered. 

How do we keep our hearts and lives clean as Christians?  I'm not talking about the physical part of ourselves but our hearts and minds.  What we choose to do each day.  Like what we watch on television, what kind of music we listen to or what we read and don't read.  What we talk about with other people or what we hear people say.  What activities we choose to do or people we choose to hang around with.  These things all determine what we allow into our hearts and lives. 

 Are we made clean by the good things we do?  If we do not have Christ as Our Saviour our good works are of our own doing.  Yes, they seem very good to us as we look at the person doing good things, but God will only accept works of goodness if we are in Christ.  We are made clean and acceptable to God by accepting Christ as our Saviour.  If others do not accept our good works as children of God, God will accept them because our heart is willing and He is our motive. 

According to the bible, Without Christ, all people are sinners and all people need salvation.  Without Christ, our righteousness is as filthy rags to God.  That's why Christ came to this earth to save us from our sins and to cleanse us from unrighteousness. Only one life soon past only what's done for Christ will last.

First of all for anyone to be clean in God’s sight, they must accept Christ as their personal Saviour.  Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sin.  Why do we need to be saved from our sin?  Because God will not accept anyone who remains in his sin.  That means God will not allow anyone into heaven that has not been washed from their sin.  God made a way for us to be clean in his sight and forgiven of all our sins.  When we believe upon Christ as our Savoiur, believe that he died on the cross for our sins and that He rose from the dead.  The bible teaches us that the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin.  We become a child of God.  The bible calls it born again.  When we choose Christ, we should also choose to live for Christ.  Be a doer of the Word and your life will remain clean before God.  Read it and Heed it. 

What are some things we Need To Heed?

Be faithful to go to church.

Be faithful in prayer.

Be faithful in learning your bible.

Choose good friends.

Fellowship with believers.

Confess daily sins to God.

Be courteous.

Think good thoughts.

What are some things we need to weed?

Help me make a list.

Let's sing the song, "O Be Careful Little Eyes."

God has given to us his Word to instruct us in righteousness.   

Psalms 119:11 ¶    

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.



Dear Father In Heaven, We know Lord, we are nothing without you.  We pray that when we do good works it will be in you and because of you.  We pray that you will open other people's eyes to what being saved in Christ means.  We know that there are a lot of people in this world that need to be saved from something.  However, dying without Christ is the greatest danger in this world.  There are many scary things going on around us, but you are our help in times of trouble.  You are the Rock of our salvation.
You are active in our lives.  I pray that people will accept Christ Jesus as their Saviour Today.
In Jesus's name, we pray this Amen.



We keep these in prayer today.
Please keep the country Ukraine in your prayers, they probably do not have the resources they need.

Pray also that God will bring judgment upon Putin.
