Rise Up!

As I look around at all that is going on, like this morning before I started to write this article, I saw on the news a great earth quake hit Turkey and Syria and it said 2500 thus far have been killed. Within that many people we know some of them are Christian I’m sure. We also hear each and every day about people being put in prison or killed for their faith in Jesus Christ. News of our fellow brothers and sisters dying or being torched for their faith comes over our phones all through the day! What do we do with them? Just delete them? This is serious question every follower of Christ including my self-need to answer now instead of waiting until we are ask by our Lord. Have we become so dull in our thoughts of our brothers and sisters overseas or even here that we just delete them like a computer.


Mark 14:38   "Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. "

It is time that everyone who call them self a Christian come out of the closet and start to pray! Matthew 21:22 "And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."


We not only pray for our own needs, family needs, but for our bothers and sisters here and around the world. We must remember at any time things right here could change for the worst or worse than it is here already. Our call from the Lord as a Christian is to pray for one another and to remember there is power in the name and blood of Jesus. Those that are unbelievers all over the world need hope and their only hope is in believing in Jesus Christ!


Romans 10:9   "That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."

My life is a mess! I know I have done so many things wrong. I have hurt so many people. I call myself a Christian, so how do I make all this right?

By faith, just like you received Christ as your personal Savior and Lord, you will release the language! Just get on your knees and surrender. Ask the Lord Jesus to baptize you with the Holy Spirit and He will! Find a Bible preaching Pentecostal church where the Spirit is moving with signs and wonders and miracles. This is all very exciting!

Potter's hands with clay
By Dr. Judy Baus June 2, 2025
The Lord speaks to us through His manual for success (Bible). But are we listening? We are living in very evil times, but we can also see revival among people if we watch Christian News. When people get saved in great numbers, we need to pray for them to truly get connected. A merely emotional experience is not becoming born again. Conversion is believing that the Lord Jesus Christ went to the cross, died, and rose again, and we ask Him to forgive our sin.
Daisy against a blue sky

Every day we hear something in the news that is so devastating, but as children of God we always have hope. So many Christians might attend church and read the Bible but still have no understanding of the Lord’s precious gift of Hope. Hope brings and builds trust IN our Lord no matter what happens.

Everywhere we look, so many people are going through horrible things. Every time I take a hot shower, the Lord brings to my mind how many people have no water at all! Bad weather and fires have destroyed so many lives. People without the Lord have no hope. But those who have received Jesus as their personal Savior and are trusting HIM and His Promises found in their manual for success (the Bible) – they have hope!
Wilderness landscape
By Dr. Judy Baus March 10, 2025
Have you ever thought about the word “wilderness” and what that means for the Christian and the non-Christian? To be a Christian we must believe—which is to trust and have confidence that Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of the world and rose again! Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
