GRAB AN INSTRUMENT & START PLAYING

Play An InstrumentThis guy is talented but he’s also exhausted.
 
Quite a few believers resemble him. Diligently, they are playing so many different ministry instruments! While many passersby cheer them on without joining the band.
 
“As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” (1 Peter 4:10)
 
2 Keywords: “each” & “employ”.
 
Since you have a spiritual gift, you should have a ministry in the Incredible Body of Christ called Calvary Bible Church. Please pray about this. Speak to any pastor for help to find that ministry.

Divorce is messy.  And the children really know it!
Custody battles and their fall-out shape the futures of everyone in the fractured family.
This roadside sign is compelling.  
It parallels human divorce with divine custody of God the Father’s redeemed children.
When you honestly think about it, how much custody does Christ have of you?  
He deserves all of you.  Because He died for all of you.
 
1 Corinthians 6:19-20:
“Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?
For you have been bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your
body.”
 
Sunday Lordship finds it’s authenticity in Monday through Saturday Lordship!
7/7th Lordship of Christ.  Full Custody.
 
With Jesus’ love for you,
Pastor Rob Elliott
 
 
 
 


Number 1

#1 PlateI am a car license plate watcher.
This is a cool one!
No pun intended!
Who or what is #1 in your life?
God is zealous to be #1 to you!

 

Exodus 20:1-3
“Then God spoke all these words, saying,
‘I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. You shall have no other gods before Me.”
 

1 Peter 3:15
“… but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence …”

Making the Lord #1 in your life is a personal choice which has to be re-confirmed moment to moment.
You can call that process reverence.

With Jesus’ love for you,

Pastor Rob Elliott

Two ways to check whether or not you have an idol:
1. Ask your self ‘typically, what do I think about when I am free to think about anything at all?’
2. Note how you feel when the offering plate comes to you in the worship service?


NIGHT FISHING

NYC Skyline What a difference 59 years make!
This was the NYC skyline Easter weekend 1956.
We are now in the end times. Our religious freedoms are steadily declining.
We must increasingly be about Heaven’s business!
Christian, you are Christ’s ambassador!
Let down your net for a catch! (Luke 5:1-8)
It won’t be fishing season forever!
Jesus made this clear when He said:
“As long as it is day, we must do the work of Him who sent Me. Night is coming, when no one can work.” (John 9:4)
Pray daily for your 5. For 30 days!


I’M MAD

Yamacraw HouseThis is a 5000 square-foot house. It sits on a large ocean front lot at the eastern edge of the city of Nassau, Bahamas.
 
Please notice that all of the windows have been smashed by persons throwing rocks. Please notice the wrought  iron front gates have been intentionally bent over by vandals. I am sure that there is also a great deal of malicious damage on the inside.
 

This is someone’s property. You don’t have to live in a house for it to be property which you own.

Even if it is not a private homeowner’s due to a possible foreclosure, it is someone’s property. Perhaps a bank’s or a deceased person’s estate’s.

Of course God is not against individuals owning property either in the Old or the New Testaments.

I believe that this kind of ugly disrespect makes God mad too.

WWJD (What Would Jesus Do?) bracelets used to remind believers to check their behavior against their Lord’s.

That’s fine and dandy.  But John 2:13-16 is in the biblical record!

“And the Passover of the Jews wasn’t hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the moneychangers seated.
And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the moneychangers, and overturned their tables; and to those who were selling the doves He said, ‘Take these things away; stop making My Father’s house the house of merchandise’ “.

As scourge was a weapon. It inflicted pain.

WWJD? Sometimes get extremely & righteously angry!

With Jesus’ Love,
Pastor Rob Elliott
