April 18, 2015. The enemy of your soul has sifted you. Your spiritual covering was manipulative and controlling. What you thought was love was in reality a trap to sideline and set you aside. This enemy attracted some of your friends and indoctrinated them into thinking you were the problem. They set you aside. But God gloriously delivered you from their mighty forces that were too great for you. Now you are in a broad, loving and victorious place. God did it all. What the enemy meant for evil God intervened and blessed.

 

Psalm 18:17-19 (NASB) "He delivered me from my strong enemy, And from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me. They confronted me in the day of my calamity, But the LORD was my stay. He brought me forth also into a broad place; He rescued me, because He delighted in me."  Ras Robinson

April 18, 2015. I know forgiveness involves your feelings. Your feelings are hurt because of what was said and happened. And I also know it feels good to be angry or revengeful toward those who hurt you. These kinds of feelings will end destructively. The feelings which are beneficial to you are the ones you have from being obedient. I say to you make the choice of forgiveness. Every time you think of what happened chose to forgive, regardless of your feelings. Doing this obediently to My word results in good feelings.

 

Matthew 18:21-22 (MSG) "At that point Peter got up the nerve to ask, "Master, how many times do I forgive a brother or sister who hurts me? Seven?"  Jesus replied, "Seven! Hardly. Try seventy times seven." Bev Robinson

 


April 18, 2015. Understand this, you are a role model whether you like it or not. People of all sorts are watching your every move. They pay close attention to the words you say and the mannerisms you display on a daily basis. Consistently monitor yourself. The Holy Spirit is like a check valve in your life. He gently reminds you in your spirit about doing what is right or wrong according to His nature. Be about being holy as I am Holy. Yielding to My ways is full of righteousness and decency.

 

Psalm 84:11 (NLT) "For the Lord God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right." Kevin Robinson

Transforming A Nation

 

God has given us the opportunity to work with Him to transform a nation. Good things are happening now, but much is yet to be done. If 1000 people give $77 each, we can help 100 very poor but deserving young people go to college.

Ministry to Children in the Philippines

Meet Jireh. This beautiful young lady just finished high school. It is an accomplishment that would not have been possible without the help of a sponsor. Her parents are poor farmers living in a remote area where there is no high school. She asked if she could move to a city on another island and live with her uncle so she could go to school. She moved, but her uncle is also very poor and unable to send his own 3 children to school so he could only give her shelter. He could not pay for her school expenses. She is so thankful to be sponsored by FCM and hopes that now she will be able to go to college. She is one of the 100 students we hope to be able to sponsor this year (see Transformation of A Nation). Jireh loves science and wants to be a teacher. Here is a note we received from her recently about why she want to go to college:

I desire to continue my studies so that I can help my family especially my younger brothers and sisters for them to get an education also.  I want our family to overcome our very poor situation.  My desire is to help my relatives and other people like you have helped me.  You helped me, so I also want to help other people who are very poor.  I want to give a sufficient life to my family and I want to build my own school someday.


Without a sponsor, Jireh will not be able to go to college. She is part of a new generation of young people God is raising up in the Philippines to transform the nation. You can be part of what God is doing.
