Be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for some have entertained strangers unaware (Hebrews 13:2). Jesus Christ, God's son came to earth to show us how to live life. Jesus left his home in glory and came to earth as a stranger that we through his teachings may inherit eternal life. Jesus’ entire message was love. Nothing is too hard if you love. Love God. Love one another. Love empowers us to show hospitality to strangers (Deuteronomy 10:19). The immigrants south of the border, have been ill-treated, demonized, and discredited. We must r...
(Corinthians 11:3) God sets things in order so that mankind would have a peaceful life, when followed. It states that the head of every man is Christ. The head of the woman is the man. The head of Christ is God. The “Head” is the home of all the body's sensory organs. The brain is the centralized conveyor of all the body's information. The brain sends signals to the eyes, ears, tongue, etc. It's the processing center for the body. “The Head” in the home pays the bills, provides food, clothing, shelter, insurance, transportation, and doesn't bra...
There are many in the black community who murmur against God and our Lord Jesus; therefore, murmurs against themselves, behaving like the children of Israel (Exodus 16: 2- 3). After God brought them out of bondage they wanted to return. Many wanted to return to the iron fist under the cruel rule of Pharaoh. Many Blacks prefer someone else making laws and rules to govern them instead of standing up for themselves. Seeing the discrimination and injustice that some say Made America Great and want to return to the times of that era. Let us turn to...
Mankind was created to get to know God, to serve him, and to worship him. God set rules for man to live by here on earth. Man was set up as a spiritual leader, a provider, and protector for the family. God wants men to teach as well as lead by example. God wants every man to have his own wife; and every woman her own husband, be fruitful and their children blessed. How beautiful it is to see a family living by God's design. Children born out of wedlock, are not of God's divine order for his creation. Marriage is honored by God. It's His plan...
Heaven and Earth will pass away, but not one of God's 'WORDS' will ever pass away (Matt. 5:17). Some say that the Ten Commandments don' t have to be kept. However, God is holy and righteous, and the Commandments are also. God said that he would put the “Law '' in our heart, no longer on tablets of stone assuring his intentions of them to be kept. Jesus didn't come to destroy the Law but to fulfill it (Matt.5:17-19) - We shall honor and respect God. - Remember the Sabbath Day, Keep it Holy. -Honor your father and mother. - Don't kill. -Don't c...
Words to mankind: Let us turn to God our Father. He is gracious, and merciful. He will not turn his face from us, when we turn to him and stay focused on him. We must teach our children God's and our Lord Jesus Christ ways, in the early years of their lives (formative). Planting seeds that grow as they grow. If you train your children, they will give you peace and they will bring you delight. O God make us children of quietness and heirs of peace. Well Bless God! Superintendent. Henry Davison...
Many worship false gods, and worship God falsely. The U. S. Is on a downward spiral in worship of the creator God and our Lord Jesus Christ. Many have forsaken the assembling of themselves together in worship of God to praise his name. We are in the time of social media where television, movies, crime, and all forms of injustice influence our mind. Satan wants to control our mind and God wants the control of our mind; the one we give the most attention to will rule. We must study God's word to be approved by him (2Tim.2:15). The Word of God...
God's Word is our road map to heaven. God's Word will never pass away. It's the same yesterday, today, and forever. The Word of God is full of Grace, Truth, Wisdom, Power, and Love. Scriptures bring joy, peace, and will guide you in everyday living, and gives all believers (Spirit Filled) Eternal (1 John 5:22 ) Life . God is going to create a New Heaven and a New Earth where Righteousness, and Holiness abounds. The old heaven and earth will pass away, and will not be remembered (Isa.65:17) nor come to mind. There will be no more weeping nor...
Exodus 20 gives an outline of God's commands to his people after leaving Egypt. In Leviticus we read the breakdown of the commandments that there's no misunderstanding of what God expects from his people. _ worship of God _Sabbath Worship _ purification of his people _ purity in the family _ Reverence for God's Name _Order in the sanctuary _ Disciplined time for God's feasts etc. etc. God wants his people sanctified only to himself, the sheep of his pasture, set aside for his use, obedient to his voice, doing what he says. Christians are a...
There are all kinds of crimes in the city of Monroe. There is a silent crime that is one of the most deadly crimes in the city of Monroe’s Black community. Do you have any idea what it is? One of the deadliest crimes in the Black community is not voting. History has revealed many things that happened to our ancestors, and they endured dangerous things to ensure we had a better future than them. They were attacked by dogs, found hanging in trees, their homes were destroyed, they were beaten, killed, and put in jail, and policing was used to c...
The question has been asked, why are black people so far behind, why is it hard for us to advance our communities? (Hebrews 12:1) says we should lay aside every weight and the sin that so easily be set us: Crime, what can we do? Murders, illegal drugs, alcohol etc. these create problems that cause us to be unprofitable and unable to advance, taking the inheritance from our future generations. We neglect to address these concerns when we reject the teachings of Jesus (Matthew chapters 5,6,7) which shows us how to live by applying God’s Word s...
These last days are dangerous. There will be terrible times. The love of many will become cold. Men and women will love only themselves. They will hate peace, good, and the rule of God's Law, and anything that restrains their evil behavior (2 Timothy 3: 1-4). In these last days the dictates of Satan are at work. The worship of him creates chaos and confusion in churches, homes, schools, at public events, in workplaces, and many times destroying family. Their weapons will be WORDS. Masters of Strategy in all they do, if it were possible they...
“Artificial Intelligence" Artificial - a replica of a real thing, an imitation, a copy. AI - Artificial Intelligence would make you think machines will take over the whole world. God sees all we do and hears all we say (Deuteronomy 11:10-12). The above scripture lets us know God's eyes are everywhere his people are. Watching over them. There is nothing hidden from God. The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show himself strong on behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him (Genesis 6:8). Herein, you have done f...
In these Perilous Times spiritual and moral deterioration is the primary cause of decay. We are witnessing wickedness and evil daily. Murders in churches, schools, supermarkets, shopping centers, and movie theaters; men have become worse than animals, killing without cause and with no remorse. Many of our leaders protect guns more than the lives of citizens. What will be God's judgement on this? In these last days the effectiveness of leadership has been diminished because of attacks on them. The devil wants to take God's power from the earth t...
As it is written...... _ Blessed are the poor in spirit. _Blessed are they that mourn. _Blessed are the meek _Blessed are those who seek after righteousness. _ Blessed are the merciful _Blessed are the pure in heart _We are the salt of the earth, and the light of the world. When the Word of God is lived through our life he is glorified, a light that can't be hidden. God wrote his word in our heart when we received the Holy Ghost that we won’t sin against him (Psalm 119:11-12). The Holy Ghost gives us the POWER to live GÓD’S WORD (Acts 1:8)...
It has been appointed to men once to die. After this the judgement (Hebrews 9:27). No one can keep his soul alive. Those who have clean hands, a pure heart, and have not lived deceitfully, shall receive blessings from the Lord Our God. We must serve God with fear and rejoice with trembling, because God's Law is perfect. Furthermore, his Commandments are pure and holy. God's Commandments brings great rewards and everlasting life to those that trust him. Our body shall return to the earth from where it came, and the spirit shall return back to...
Ministers Of Christ (Deut.18) The ministers Of Christ will not follow abominations as in the times of Sodom and Gomorrah. They went after strange flesh, spoke evil of those who did good works, lived ungodly lifestyles, took advantage of others. Yet they proclaimed to be called by God. Ministers of God will instruct against envy, covetousness, adultery, overindulging in strong drink, and physically or mentally abusive situations. Well Bless God! Superintendent Henry Davison...
John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness, Repent! Repent! For the Kingdom of God is at hand. A new dispensation is coming, the New Testament of Jesus Christ. The Old Testament Covenant has passed and Jesus is coming to bring in the Blood Bought Covenant. To receive what Jesus has, we must repent (turn) from the Old, of which the blood of bulls and goats could not take our sins away. Jesus the Son of God was sent to take away our sins. The Old Covenant could not, and neither draw us to his Throne of Grace, in obedience to his Word,...

In this New Year of 2024, let ALL who LOVE OUR LORD JESUS and our HEAVENLY FATHER take up our cross and follow them with all our heart, soul, mind and body. Let the believers in Christ walk in holiness, praising him daily. Cast off the old sinful nature of wickedness and become the New Man in Jesus created in righteousness and true holiness. Let us walk with him while we are yet on earth. Seek God while he may be found. Call him while he is near. Forsake ungodly ways. Seek him always, that others may see your good works and glorify God. Well...
Wonderful, JESUS is so WONDERFUL! If you are lonely, he'll lift you up. If you are thirsty, his water fills your cup. Jesus is so Wonderful. Unto us a child is born, unto us a SON is given. The government shall be upon his shoulder. His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. We know him as JESUS today, Jesus Christ the SON OF GOD, Our LORD AND SAVIOUR. Let's Bless the Lord today. The fruit of our lips gives him praise. Our heart and hands serve God and our fellow man during this holiday...
For we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them (Eph.2:10). The Lord your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed and you shall possess it; he will do you good and multiply you above your fathers (Deut.30:5). You shall return and obey the voice of the Lord and do all his Commandments, which I command you this day (Deut. 30:8-10). Truly it's the Church’s responsibility to remind the members of God's promises when we live holy and walk upright. T...
Let's talk about the natural man's life here on earth. One of his duties is to marry, have children, provide food, clothes and shelter, protect, educate, and teach them God's ways, and His commandments. In doing so, this leads them onto the path to "Eternal Life" and away from a life of pain and suffering. Psalm 37:37 speaks of following Jesus because His end is peace. The flood of Noah's day, Sodom and Gomorrah, the plagues of Egypt (Gen.6 :19; Exodus 5:1-3) all happened because the voice of God was not obeyed. Obey the voice of God and save...
For many shall come in my name saying, I am Christ, and shall receive many. You shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be not troubled, for all these things must come to pass; but the End is not yet (Matt.24:5-6). Jesus has gone to prepare a New Heaven, and a New Earth, the former things will pass away, and will not be remembered. Rejoice and be glad. There will be no more weeping and crying, for God will bring peace and joy. From this day forward prepare to meet Jesus. Only the pure in heart shall see God. The New Earth and New...
"The Sons of God" 1John 3:1-9 It's written that he who sins is of the devil, and he that sin knows not Jesus. For Jesus was manifested to take away sin, in him is no sin. God sent Jesus to earth to instruct man on how to live holy, righteous, and God-fearing lives. He that's born of God cannot sin because his seed is in him. Therefore, he cannot sin. This is how you will know the children of God from the children of the devil. Be obedient to God's commandments, live holy, that you may have eternal life with God. Well Bless God! Superintendent...
My son hear the instructions of your father and forsake not the law of your mother (Proverbs 1:8). Parents we are commanded to teach our children in God's ways. Teach them to work and manage their money. Teach them the importance of Godly wisdom and knowledge that what they work hard for won't end up in someone else’s house. Children obey your parents (in the Lord). For this is right that you may live long on the earth. Keep your father's commandments and follow your loving mothers ways. This will keep you from much evil. Wel bless God! S...
Listen! Wisdom cries, and understanding puts forth her voice, she cries at the gates, she stands in the top of high places, at the doors: To you, O men, their voices are to the sons of men! _ Love the brethren _ Have Compassion _ Refrain from killing one another _ Speak truth to one another _ Do good works _ Don't speak evil of one another _ Stop being foolish, cussing, swearing, fighting etc. Choose the excellent ways of life. They who choose wisdom shall inherit substance, riches, honor, and blessings from God and his son Jesus Christ. They...
We are witnessing much destruction in America. Fires in Hawaii, a hurricane in California, record setting heat that the waters are hotter than since they have been recording. It seems like the earth is spewing mankind out. A hurricane and earthquake in the same area, on the same day, how do we, equate that? Flooding, unbearable heat, what is God saying? We must always remember how God judged, not sparing the old world, only saving Noah and his family (8 persons). Also, how God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah making them and example to them that...
Moreover, the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served by the field (Ecclesiastes 5:9). Greetings to the minority races of America. Black farmland ownership in America is only 1percent. In 1910 blacks owned 19 million acres. In 2023 blacks owns less than 3 million acres of farmland. The census indicates that blacks have lost about 326 billion acres of land in the 20th century. Minorities have been intentionally discriminated against by the U.S. Government (USDA) unfairly treated in finances to operate their farms. God has...
You are the salt of the earth. (Matthew 5:13)Christians are to preserve the Word and Ways of God through their life of daily living. Their good works will be seen by others as they glorify God. We are told as Christians to be strong in the Lord and the power of his might (Eph.6:10), and get Wisdom, and good understanding, that they may be examples to others. When we walk in the Spirit, we don't fulfill the temptations of the flesh (Gal. 5:16-26). All that follow the order of God will cast off Satan with his evil desires, wants and lusts. Well...
In the beginning God! (Gen. 1:1) The enemy (Satan) comes to steal, kill and destroy (St. John 10:10) but Jesus came that we may havelife and that in abundance. The earth is the Lord's and everything that's in it. God made man in his image and likeness. Man is God's highest creation. The devil wants to dismiss, discredit, demonize, and destroy all God has set in order on earth. Man dismisses God’s Word and his Commandments as unimportant, and not worthy of considering. He discredits God's Word as ineffective in today's scientific world. He demon...
By grace, we are saved through faith. It is the gift of God, not of our works (Ephesians 2:4-10). We become Jesus Christ's workmanship unto good works, which God has ordained that we should walk in them daily. James 2:26 states, " As the body without the Spirit is dead, likewise, faith without works is dead. God has called men and women to holiness, giving the believer (Christian) power, love, and a sound mind and wisdom from heaven (1 Timothy 1:7)....
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit (Romans 8:1). I once was lost in sin (Galatians 5:19-21) (Psalms 51:5). To enter into Heaven the sin nature must be converted into righteousness by the blood of Jesus (Holy Ghost). Our faith in God and His grace gives us the opportunity to convert from our old nature into our born-again nature. We are no longer held accountable (condemned) once we accept Christ as our Lord and Master. We are declared righteous by the...
Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it (Proverb 22:6). An old song goes "We need the Lord just to guide us every day, as we travel along this tedious way. We need him to teach us how to raise our children to respect him as God; respect us as parents. Raise them to honor God; praise, worship and love Him and their parents forever. Parents must be examples of how children should live in the Spirit and the natural life. In the spirit we must love God with All our heart, soul, strength, and might,...
Come To Jesus Right Now! We must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ, that everyone may receive the things done in the body, according to what he/she has done, whether good or bad. Therefore we persuade men/women to repent from the works of the flesh (Gal.5:19-21). In the beginning God gave Adam one command, do not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. God does not tolerate sin. Sin separates us from God. Lying, stealing, killing, disobedience to parents, adultery, fornication, etc. must be relented of. Homosexuality...
Battle for the home (house) Officers in the Israelite army were commanded to allow a man to return home if he had built a new house and had not dedicated it. Lest he died in battle and someone else dedicated it (Deuteronomy 20:5). God is concerned about the house (home). The deterioration of the home in America and the world has touched every aspect of our life. The home is where lives are nourished, protected, and made safe. Having children out of wedlock by multiple women, not there to protect, provide for them, and train them according to...
And when your son (children) asks you in times to come saying, what mean these testimonies, status, and judgements; which the Lord our God has commanded you (Deuteronomy 6:1-13). Blessings and honor to our creator God, and Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. God made the sun, the moon, and set the stars in the sky. He gave them the space to testify of his goodness by day and by night. God created Man and Woman, blessed them, and instructed them to be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth in his image and likeness. Parents have been...
Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom. Day to day, countless numbers of men and women that say they love God, arise from their slumber, just to put off for another day, what can be done today. There is such a defeated, complacent mindset in the body of Christ. Opportunities, gifts, talents and even lives are going to waste each day. God is calli...
All labor is prosperity (Proverbs 1:31-33). Because of laziness many suffer. Because of idleness, everything around you may become wasted. Even the poor have much, but because of poor management they become penniless. During our time on earth, a feast is made for laughter, wine to make merry, but money answers all things. We must work if we are to afford the pleasures of life. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and he shall direct your path (Proverbs 3:5-6). God wants us to be good stewards over what he blessed us with to bless him, others,...
Protect your family name and inheritance. The immigrants like Naomi and her family were looking to preserve their lives as well as their inheritance (Ruth 1:1-2). After Naomi's husband and sons died, she felt she was left without hope. Ruth her daughter-in-law refused to leave her, saying," where you go I will go ". The blessings of God were with the Israelites. Ruth recognized this in Naomi for her to leave her homeland and family. Let our prayers be that the immigrants from South and Central America find what they need to sustain them. Men,...
God is building a house that will stand (Matt.7:24 -27). The test of time will prove what foundation we build on. Whosoever hears Jesus’ sayings and does them is like a Wise Man which built his house upon a rock (God 's Word). The rains descended, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat up on that house, and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. He that hears The Words of God and does not do them is like to a man that built his house upon the sand. The rains descended, the floods came, the winds blew and beat up on that house; a...
But let every man examine himself (1 Corinthians 11:28). Are you a Christian? _ Take a self-examination _ Do you speak great swelling words to entertain others? Do you prophesy, have All knowledge, and have faith in moving mountains? Do you have the God kind of Love? Unconditional! Do you suffer long with others? Are you kind as you go through with others? Are you envious of others? Do you exalt yourself above others? Is your behavior unlike Christ? Do you get upset easily? Do you think evil of others? Do you hate disobedience? _ This is not a...
The Lord Is My Shepherd, I shall not want ( Psalm 23:1 ) The shepherd protects the sheep from All evil. Sheep are the most defenseless of all animals. Sheep have no way to protect themselves. Jesus sent his Disciples out as sheep among wolves, he gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, to heal all manners of sickness, and diseases ( Luke 10:3 ). The enemy comes to take peace from the earth , when Jesus was born the Angels declared " Peace On Earth " Good Will To Man. The enemy had come to take Man's peace through sickness,...
Anybody observing what’s happening in Monroe, LA, whether resident or non-resident, can easily see a growing number of concerns that need addressing immediately. One of the concerns I will address is the growing number of violent crimes and deaths within the minority districts. It’s disheartening and alarming, and enough is enough! Parents, it’s time to get in the game. In all humility, fall to your knees. Seek God and obey Him. He will tell you what to do as a parent and how to do it. You a...
God made man in his image and after his likeness, and gave him dominion over the things he created on earth. He blessed the man and woman and told them to be fruitful and multiply and replenish (have children) on the earth (Gen.1:26) God gave all he created the green herbs, fruit trees for meat (food) and God saw all he created was very good. Let all men worship and glorify our creator God, let's be thankful to him, and bless his name, for he is the King of kings, and the Lord of lords. (Gen.2:15) (Matt.28:18). We are to be good STEWARDS over...
We are witnessing powerful earthquakes, (Matt. 24:7) destructive tornadoes, catastrophic flooding, out of control fires, temperatures of 50 and 60 degrees below zero, it looks like the earth is spewing out mankind. Yet men will not repent. They continue to make war against one another, fighting, killing, and utterly destroying the land God commanded him to protect and to keep (Gen.2:15). God will bring vengeance on man for his destruction of the earth, as reward for his evil and wickedness (Rev. 6:1-8). We’ll let those redeemed of the Lord, s...
Lord who shall abide in your tabernacle? Who shall dwell in your holy hill? He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart (Psalm 15:1-2). God wants true worship from the heart, in Spirit and in Truth. Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? Who shall stand in his holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart: who has not lifted up his soul to vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessings of the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation (Psalm 24:3-5). With love and...

As Christians we shouldn't be afraid of Satan, his disciples, nor his devices. God is our creator, and redeemer, he has called us to be bold in holiness and righteousness (1Timothy 1:7 ) . He created us to be in a pleasant existence for our benefit (Gen.2:8-9 ) he watches over us with his Devine love (Gen . 2:15 ) . We are connected to God through his Spirit ( Gen.2:7). Let's worship God honestly out of a pure heart. Let's study him through the scriptures, pray, fast, help those in need, those who are sick . Let's seek the Lord for guidance,...
In these last days men are saying that we don't have to obey the law or the Prophets because we are under grace. We are still required to obey and keep the ten commandments that were given to Moses on Mt. Sinai (Exodus 20:1 17). In Christ Jesus’s death, burial and resurrection, we received power over the flesh to keep the commandments (Acts 1:8). The commandments left from tables of stones and took root in the hearts of those believers in Christ (Mark 12:29). In Matthew (5:17-19) Jesus stated that he did not come to destroy the law or the P...
