Time to Think

December is a busy month for us all. In the midst of all the busyness, believers must get excited about Jesus and what He has done, what He is doing, and what He is going to do!

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. John 1:1-5



And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14


These are great scriptures to mediate on as we are about to enter a new year. When we go to bed at night and when we get up each morning, a great peace will come on us because, as believers, we have given our life to the creator of it all and He holds it all together. He came from heaven to earth to show us the way! This brings me great comfort because I know that no matter what comes my way, my Lord and Savior will see me through!


If we get so busy focusing on other things and allow this great understanding to be pushed to the side, our life will be full of chaos and confusion. Let’s mediate on what went right this year and what went wrong. First and foremost, wrong is if we have not received Jesus as our personal Savior, or if we have placed Him second to anything or any person.


Let’s take some time this month to purpose in our heart to change some things so next year is more fulfilling than this year. And remember why we celebrate Christmas — JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON!

Messy Life

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?

After salvation

By Dr. Judy Baus • May 1, 2025
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!

New Creation

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.

Hope

By Dr. Judy Baus • May 1, 2025
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.

So many horrible things

By Dr. Judy Baus • April 7, 2025
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

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.
