Carly’s Story

John Great April 2, 2013 Faith, Joy!, The Power of the Word, Your Power As A Christian 0

I saw a report on television not too long ago about a young girl who had severe Autism. Her name is Carly. For years, she had never spoken a word or communicated in any way. It looked as if she were mentally retarded. All through the day, she would flail her arms and have uncontrollable fits. At seven years old, the authorities tried to talk her parents into putting her in a special home. They said, “She’s never going to get any better. She doesn’t even comprehend the love that you’re showing much less what you’re constantly saying to her.” Her parents wouldn’t hear of it. They just kept loving her, training her and speaking faith into her. One day o... »

How To Make Your Faith Work By Yourself

The Scripture that says, ‘What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them” (Mark 11:24) is talking about the prayer of faith. This primarily is an individual situation. It pertains to your desires. It is you praying; not someone else praying with you. It’s not someone else agreeing with you. When you pray, you believe that you receive. If you’ll do that, you’ll have “what things soever ye desire.” You’ll get results! I can make this work for myself, but I can’t always make it work for you. Your will is involved. One person’s unbelief can nullify another person’s prayer of faith.... »

A Study On Poverty/Riches | Part 1

John Great March 25, 2013 Becoming A Victor Through Growth, Faith, Knowing the Will of God, Prosperity 0

Hello! Do you know it is God’s will for you to be rich.? The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 8:9 that, THOUGH JESUS WAS RICH, YET FOR YOUR SAKE HE BECAME POOR, THAT YE THROUGH HIS POVERTY MIGHT BE RICH. In order to effectively push poverty out of your life once and for all, you need to understand what exactly it is, and how to push it out of your life permanently. Mark 14:7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good. – There would always be poor people to deal with in life. Poverty attributes are everywhere. That’s why poverty is so rampant. You need to do a PROPER check to ensure that you do not personally harbour any trait of it around yo... »

The Power of Thanksgiving

John Great March 21, 2013 Becoming A Victor Through Growth, Faith, The Power of Thanksgiving, The Power of the Word 0

It’s amazing what God can do if we would just obey Him, and acknowledge His Power in your life – by thanking Him everytime. The Lord’s power is there to save us, but the Bible says ‘Without faith it is impossible to please God’. The whole of the heavens respond to faith – and a habit of thanksgiving is one of the highest expression of faith in our lives! Keep thanking the Lord today. Put on an attitude of praise, ESPECIALLY when you are feeling stressed out or feeling weak or discouraged. The Lord has great plans for you, just do what the Word of God says every day – you’d be amazed. Also, the Bible says to lay aside every weight. What do you k... »

Joy; Thanksgiving; the Great Life

John Great March 19, 2013 Faith, Joy!, The Power of Thanksgiving, The Power of the Word 0

Hello all! Hope your Monday was glorious. The Bible tells us how it is important to keep up a spirit of joy at all times. Joy is key to receiving from the Spirit of God. I noticed in the Old Testament, that when the people discovered they had been disobeying the law of God, and would start mourning, the Spirit of God would speak through a prophet, that He wanted the people to have a celebration, and not to mourn. Repentance is good, but after it should come joy that we are now reconciled to your God, not a spirit of depression. Giving a financial seed as led by the Spirit, to go along with our repentance is also Biblical, and causes the grace of God to come upon one to stand on our decisions... »
