The Spirit of God is calling each and every believer to come aside, approach the Almighty and spend time with God in prayer. Do you realize that there is absolutely nothing more powerful and productive in the whole earth than the prayers of the saints? It is a mystery of the Kingdom that God indeed restricts His actions when we do not pray. Without prayer, He does not move; with prayer, however, He can do anything. Through our prayers and petitions to God, all things are possible. Truly, prayer moves the hand of God...and when the hand of Almighty God moves, nothing and no one can stop Him. Let’s set our heart to activate the hand of God with our prayers. For Everyone and everybody that was effected in the Boston Marathon Tragedy, on Monday, April 15, 2013. This is a season when the saints of God will discover that true intimacy is stirred in the secret place of the Most High, a desire not merely for power but for His living presence.The first step toward the "secret place of the Most High" (Psalm 91:1) begins with a desperate, hungry heart. This longing draws us to seek true, deep intimacy with Christ. One can hear the cry of David’s longing heart in (Psalms 42:7)

Five Marks of a Confident Person...
Use this as a check to see if you are confident in who you are in Christ.
1. you aren't afraid to meet new friends
2. You like to try new things and see new places.
3. You aren't afraid to take calculated risks in order to achieve something you want.
4. you don't get discouraged and depressed when you fail. Instead you pick yourself back up.
5. It doesn't bother you much when people criticize you.
If all the statements above describe you, you are very confident.If 4 of the statements are true about you, your confident is solid and improving. Three true statements means you could use some improvement. it's not looking good if only 2 statements are true; you are limited yourself from great experiences. If you only found 1 statement to be true, reread this every day until all the statement are true. Remember. in Christ you are a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17)

The Inside Story
Dear Pedro,
My wife, Jamie, is one of God’s greatest blessings in
my life. She has been through more than what most women would have put up with,
and without a single complaint. She has been awesome!
She doesn’t like to have attention drawn to her. She
likes to be behind the scenes, but as you might imagine, she has had to believe
God right along with me through everything the devil has thrown at us. She has
been a rock. She is a strong woman who knows God and who she is in the Lord.
Thank God for Jamie.
She has consented to a rare, forty-minute interview,
and we have put it on our website under The Inside Story. I believe you will be
blessed to get this special glimpse into Jamie’s heart and the faith she
operates in. Check it out at
Thanks for being a part of what the Lord is doing
through Jamie and me. We couldn’t do it without you. Together we are making a difference.

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
(Matt. 6:21) If isolated from the rest of God's Word, there are some scriptures that could be interpreted to mean that having money or wealth is wrong. However there are other scriptures that speak of riches as a blessing. The harmony between these two apparently opposite positions is that money is neither good nor bad. It is the love of money that is the root of all evil,and many have committed the sin of loving money who don't even have a dime (1 Tim. 6:10)!
The love of things (covetousness) is idolatry, and this is what Jesus is addressing.Because it is so easy to lust after money and the things it can provide, the Lord established a
system whereby prosperity is a by-product of putting God first. As Matthew 6:33 states, "But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you." We should no more reject the blessing of prosperity than we should covet it, which is idolatry.The reason for not laying up treasures on this earth is so that we will not have our hearts drawn away from the things of God. A key to success in the Kingdom of God is singleness of purpose.We don't have the capacity to do our best in two areas at the same time. If we will simply put God and His Kingdom first in every area of our lives, He will add to us all the wealth that we need. What is more valuable or important than knowing Him

When the word was out that Jesus performed miracles,
multitudes brought their sick to Jesus to
be healed. He taught them that all things were possible to them that believed.
They learned that Jesus was the door for the miraculous power of God to flow to them and
through them to others. He said, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the
works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to my
Father" (John 14:12 KJV).

The Fruit of the Spirit is God's love and work in us, the love of Christ flowing in through His Holy Spirit in and out of us! All because we have a personal relationship with Christ, we have God's living presence in us, living in us. The result is we have the ability to reflect His Fruit and character. In addition, this is a moral obligation on our part to live out our New Life in Christ effectively. This then becomes our visible evidence of our relationship and growth in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior that is contagious and affects others. We display Christ by our manner, demeanor, and temperament. Thus, the Fruit we make becomes the influence and the display case of His transforming power. We do not do this alone; He gives us the Holy Spirit, God's active love and work within and through us so we bear and convey His attributes of Fruit and character. This means we "cultivate," add to as in supplement His Fruit, God's empowering love for us, which we are given and then we are to continue to build up by our faith development so we are able to pass this on to others (Isa. 27:6; Hos. 10:1; 14:8; Matt. 3:8; Rom. 6:22; Eph. 5:9; Phil. 1:11).

If I were to ask you "Where is God?” what would be your first thought? I believe as Christians we need to cultivate the "God In Us" mentality. The Bible says over and over in the New Testament that God in Christ through the Holy Spirit is actually living inside of us! If we will renew our minds to this truth it will transform every aspect of our lives. It will change the way we think, the way we treat others, the way we pray (both for ourselves and others), the way we speak and in general how we conduct our lives on a daily basis.
It is so easy to lose our
intimacy with God when we have a mindset that God is very distant from us, when
in fact we don't have to look any further than within us to find His presence.
