"In everything give thanks;
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus"
"Give thanks to the Lord, Call on His Name, make known among the peoples what He has done"
"Give thanks to the Lord,
for He is good and His love endures forever"
(1 Thes. 5:18; 1 Chronicles 16:8; Psalm 107:1)
I love the Hebrew word for "thanks". It means "to Throw...Cast! Like holding out the hand. It says we are to cast forth the thanks to God and to make what He has done known to the people or the nations! Glory. The N.T. word for thanks means to be thankful or to give thanks.
At this "Thanksgiving Season" may we all cast forth Thanks and Praise to our Lord Jesus. Let us make know what Jesus did for us at the Cross! Let's proclaim the message of Jesus.
It's a time for reflection and proclamation! May we remember what God has done and then share that message with our family, friends and the entire world.
As a young 71 year old, I'm ready, freshly renewed & empowered in the Fire of the Holy Spirit. I am living in overtime, my foot is to the medal, the wind is in my face, the love of Jesus is filling my heart, I have a huge smile, peace in my soul. I'm heaven bound but 'loving serving & sharing'! Don't feel sorry for this pilgrim cross walker. My wife Denise is by my side. Sophia our daughter is glowing with the Presence of the Lord. We have beautiful friends around the world and Jesus is using us in the 'End Time' harvest. Glory!
Last week we filmed "The Message of the Cross" programs for TBN TV. We filmed for a total of 26 programs on location on Hollywood Blvd, the High Desert, Los Angeles National Forest and in a white screen room. These are programs showing me out on the street sharing Jesus with people. This is mixed with me teaching about how to share Jesus with others. All of this is interspersed with film footage and stories from around the world. This makes for the most unusual evangelism program on TV. As TBN is shown around the world so this teaching about how to share Jesus is being used to train millions in sharing Jesus resulting in so many people receiving Jesus. I am thrilled to be able to do this.
We also host "Praise the Lord" programs on TBN. I interview guests and then preach a closing message during the two hour program. This again is a huge witness with many coming to know Jesus and followers of Jesus being inspired to share Jesus with others.
In November I host 'Praise the Lord' from Denver with guests Marilyn Hickey, Bill Wiese, Tim Bagwell & Joy Hill. This will be shown Nov. 19th 5pm EST
Thanksgiving week Wed. Nov. 23 at 2pm I will be preaching live and filmed for TBN at Holy Land Experience in Orlando.
Please pray for Aliya from overseas who is ill.
We are still looking for the right home/office for us and our ministry office. We pray for a great down payment. Would be great to have no mortgage. The Lord has just the right location for us and price.
Pray for our upcoming crosswalk in South Sudan, Africa.
We want at this Thanksgiving time to thank you all for your support in carrying the cross and the message of the cross to the world. God bless you in every way.
I encourage you to find a way to express your 'thanks' to the people who have blessed you and helped you in your life. Don't wait for someone to die and stand around the funeral speaking praise about someone who you never while they were alive tell them what they meant to you. Express your love and blessings and support to those impacting your life for Christ. Start with your family and friends and them move out. But beyond all else express your thanks to God who is Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Thank you for what so many of you mean to us. Thanks too for sending us to the world with the cross and the message of Jesus. God bless you.
Pilgrim followers of Jesus,
Arthur, Denise and Sophia Blessitt
