Life Is A Gift

Enjoy this Story my friend, though you might have seen it before... it's worth reading again. There was a blind girl who hated herself just because she's blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He's always there for her. She said that if she could only see the world, she would marry her boyfriend. One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her and then she can see everything, including her boyfriend. Her boyfriend asked her, "now that you can see the world, will you marry me?" The girl was shocked when she saw that her boyfriend is blind too, and refused to marry him. Her boyfriend walked away in tears, and later wrote a letter to her saying. "Just take care of my eyes dear.” This is how human brain changes when the status changed. Only few remember what life was before, and who's always been there even in the most painful situations. Life Is A Gift... Don’t waste it” Godbless Channelofhealing

I Shall not be Defeated!!!

Greetings in the Mighty Name of our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ who is the Reason for the Season. Hallelujah. Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits Psalms 103:2 We are blessed to be alive and well this season, a lot of us might not see any reason why we should celebrate "life" given to us by the Special Grace of God.   Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. As we are about to start a new year... this should be a time of sober reflection, a time when we go to God in Prayer and thank Him For His marvelous works in our lives and families, ask Him what He wants from us this year (Direction), what we must do for Him and also how to stay strong in Faith to live a mountain top life instead of life in the valley I would like to reiterate that this post is not about scoring points with it's esteemed  readers, but I want us to...

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Channelofhealing wishes you a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous  happy New Year in Jesus Mighty Name Amen!!!   Godbless Channelofhealing

Jokes for the Year

Heavens A Protestant minister was in a teasing mood one day. He met his friend, Rabbi Levy, and began, "You know, Rabbi Levi, I dreamed of a Jewish heaven the other night. It was very lifelike and seemed to me to fit the Jewish ideal. It was much like a crowded street in Brooklyn, with Jewish people everywhere. There were clothes on the line from every window, women on every stoop, pushcart peddlers on every corner, children playing ball on every street. The noise and confusion was so great that I woke up." "Hmmm," said the Rabbi. "By a strange coincidence I dreamed the other night of the Protestant heaven. It was very lifelike, and seemed to me to suit the Protestant ideal. It was a neat suburb, with well-spaced houses in excellent condition, beautiful lawns, and flower beds at each home. The clean, wide streets were immersed in mild sunshine." The Protestant minister smiled, "And the people?" "People," muttered Rabbi Levi, "...

Healing is Available Today!

I thought I was going to leave this for later, but I can't! the Healing Miracle I am talking about happened just this morning. My immediate younger brother who is almost thirty years old has been ill for a week now and I hadn't gone to see him. he had not been able to walk or even have his bath for days due to a swollen groin and it was so painful for him... He had been bedridden for days with legs spread apart and in excruciating pain, I went early to oversee a project the Lord had me doing, when I got back home as I was about climbing up the stairs to my mums room the Holy Spirit said "check on him" cos his room is by the staircase, I entered and behold, saw him with his legs spread out wide and he couldn't even get up to visit the toilet for he has been like that for days and again the holy Spirit said "Pray for him and anoint him with oil" I obeyed and he was reluctant when he saw me with the oil, my brother just said... just put small, I don'...

Praying Twelve Tag

re you one of the praying twelve?  Then read this. A dear friend forwarded this to me and I must say that it was quite a task for me in deciding who I thought would DO this because many people claim to pray, but not everyone does. I hope I chose the right twelve. There are 12 months/ 12 disciples/ 12 tribes of Israel / Jesus' birth celebrated in the 12th month. May everyone who receives this message be blessed! REMEMBER to pray. That's all you have to do. There is nothing attached. Just send this to twelve. Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of reward. Make sure you pray, and pray believing that God will answer. May today be all that you need it to be. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight and conquer all your fears. May God manifest himself today in ways that you have never experienced. May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer and your prayers be answered. I...

Scriptures

Beloved, As we draw closer to the end of the year, I Pray we take our time to reflect on the word of God concerning our lives... I want you to take a good look at these scriptures and know that there is hope for us in Christ Jesus our Lord. I will be posting some prayer points sometime next week from our church which is Deliverance and Prayer  Ministry, I know that some of the prayer points will be strange to some of us but I know that if you can be faithful and Pray them you will see a difference in your Life but, for now lets us pray. Courtesy of Marilyn Hickey Ministries NEED PRAYERS? OR WANT TO BE REASSURED OF GODS WORD CONCERNING YOUR SITUATION? whatever it is just know that God's Word does not lie. Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie. He is not a human, that he should change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through? NLT ABUSE Psalms 147:3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Isai...

Nuggets for the Year

Don't let your worries get the best of you; remember, Moses started out as a basket case. Some people are kind, polite, and sweet-spirited until you try to sit in their pews. It is easier to preach ten sermons than it is to live one. When you get to your wit's end,you'll find God lives there People are funny; they want the front of the bus, the middle of the road, and the back of the church. Opportunity may knock once, but temptation bangs on your front door forever. Quit griping about your church;if it was perfect, you couldn't belong there.   God bless Channelofhealing

Worse Beginning... Better End

Image
  Introduction by Channelofhealing: I actually got this post through an email sent to me by my brother... actually I have two of this pastor's messages but will post one now and leave the other for later. I would love for the people of God to benefit from this message in Jesus Mighty Name Amen. The Year is fast flying away and I tell you we can end it better than we started if only we can go to the Lord in Prayer and ask for forgiveness of sin and believe that it is never to late to  start over again especially since we are entering a new year 2008( 8 which symbolises an new beginning). Oh yes I know many of us set goals we couldn't attain/achieve, we did things we shouldn't have done, we failed in our responsibilities to the people of God, We didn't show love or obey the voice of God, it was a me, myself and I year but we can make a change before the year ends. I pray that everything that has eluded us this year... all the struggles and hardships of life, all the a...

Joke for the Week

WET PANTS Come with me to a third grade classroom..... There is a nine-year-old kid sitting at his desk and all of a sudden, there is a puddle between his feet and the front of his pants are wet. He thinks his heart is going to stop because he cannot possibly imagine how this has happened.  It's never happened before, and he knows that when the boys find out he will never hear the end of it. When the girls find out, they'll never speak to him again as long as he lives. The boy believes his heart is going to stop; he puts his head down and prays this prayer, "Dear God, this is an emergency! I need help now! Five minutes from now I'm dead meat." He looks up from his prayer and here comes the teacher with a look in her eyes that says he has been discovered As the teacher is walking toward him, a classmate named Susie is carrying a goldfish bowl that is filled with water. Susie trips in front of the teacher and inexplicably dumps the bowl of water in the boy'...

God Answers Prayers

Image
I was touched and ministered to by this, I felt compelled to share it with you. I hope you don’t mind? God wants you to listen and touch a life today. Read and digest: A young man had been to Wednesday Night Bible Study. The Pastor had shared about listening to God and obeying the Lord's voice. The young man couldn't help but wonder, "Does God still speak to people?" After service, he went out with some friends for coffee and pie and they discussed the message. Several different ones talked about how God had led them in different ways. It was about ten o'clock when the young man started driving home. Sitting in his car, he just began to pray, "God...If you still speak to people, speak to me. I will listen. I will do my best to obey." As he drove down the main street of his town, he had the strangest thought to stop and buy a gallon of milk. He shook his head and said out loud, "God is that you?" He didn't get a reply and started on...

How Much Does A Prayer Weigh?

Louise Redden, a poorly dressed lady with a look of defeat on her face, walked into a grocery store. She approached the owner of the store in a most humble manner and asked if he would let her charge a few groceries. She softly explained that her husband was very ill and unable to work, they had seven children and they needed food. John Longhouse, the grocer, scoffed at her and requested that she leave his store. Visualizing the family needs, she said: "Please, sir! I will bring you the money just as soon as I can." John told her he could not give her credit, as she did not have a charge account at his store. Standing beside the counter was a customer who overheard the conversation between the two. The customer walked forward and told the grocer that he would stand good for whatever she needed for her family. The grocer said in a very reluctant voice, "Do you have a grocery list?" Louise replied, "Yes sir" "O.K." he said, "put your gr...

How Much Is A Miracle?

Tess was a precocious eight year old when she heard her Mom and Dad talking about her little brother, Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely out of money. They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn't have the money for the doctor bills and their house. Only a very costly surgery could save Andrew now and it was looking like there was no one to loan them the money. She heard Daddy say to her tearful Mother with whispered desperation, "Only a miracle can save him now." Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all of the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for mistakes. Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way 6 blocks to Rexall's Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above the door. ...

He Took The Whipping

Image
  Author Unknown In the mountains of Virginia, there once was a one-room school with students no teacher had been able to handle. Two or three teachers had been run off from this school in one year by the unruly students.  A young teacher heard about the school and applied for the job. The man interviewing him asked, "Do you not know what you are asking for? No one has been able to handle these students. You are just asking for a terrible beating." After a few moments of silent prayer, the young man replied, "Sir, with your consent I accept the challenge. Just give me a trial basis." The next morning the young man stood before the class. He said to the class, "Young people, I came here today to conduct school. But I realize I can't do it by myself. I must have your help." One big boy they called Big Tom, in the back of the room whispered to his buddies, "I'll not need any help. I can lick that little bird all by myself." The young teac...
