    Please brothers and sisters pray for me. The devil wants to attack my beliefs in our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. But i thank my God, whenever those thoughts come in he always takes me to the bible to see the truth for myself. I'll never stop following Jesus Christ as i live in this fallen body...

      He gave us the Power to Rebuke the enemy, there is Power in the name of Jesus!!!
      As we grow closer to our Lord's return, it seems to be getting worse with all who belong to our Lord Jesus Christ and with Abba's people Israel. Having some problems here also, but continue to stand firm on my rock that by His grace was given to me, "I Rebuke You satan in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth" Knowing my Lord is with me!!! That at the name of Jesus Christ it has to leave. Time to put on and keep it on day and night the Whole Armor of God, also found in Ephesians. This really helps very much along with fasting and prayers!!!
      "To God Be the Glory" 🙌
      May God bless and protect,
      Sending 🙏🙏🙏's with ❤❤❤ and much ✌✌✌ until His return ☝🙌

    Once I started imagining working for Jesus vs my particular boss my attitude changed completely (had been bitter/cynical). Then several years later God led me to go to a new company where I was blessed with a positive environment. YEY! I felt like I was rewarded and I am thankful to God every time I go to work. My new boss is fair and smart and nice. I want to publicly bless him and thank God for this change!

    Thank you Pastor JD, I listened with great interest. You see, I started my new job last May. I prayed for the right job as the Lord knew my temperament and patience level. I missed my office jobs of the past but was willing to do anything, fast food & high school janitorial but I kept praying "Lord, you know me." On a whim I applied for a PT position in the banking industry. It was in the book keeping department. When I left the interview with my potential boss and the head of HR, I thought if I don't get the job, I'd love to have lunch with these ladies and become friends. I was hired 2 days later. My coworkers are 7 other ladies who bless me with laughter and helping me learn.
    Sometimes Pastor, we are ministered by others at work. This is the position given by God, I know it with everything in me. You see, my husband was just diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer. These precious wonderful woman, 3 of which know Jesus as their Savior, said I'm family now and allowing me to take time to get hubby to his Radiation and Chemo treatments.
    Also, I see a quality in each one of these precious ladies that I am striving to work on. These wonderful women make me laugh when all I want to do is cry. There is so much more to say but the jest of it all, I love my work place because the Lord placed me there and I want and strive to do my best for them.They are prayed for daily. When the time is right, I pray that I am hired on full time but for right now I trust in the Lord knowing PT was perfect because it came from God. Thank you Lord for these precious wonderful ladies. Thank you Pastor for this wonderful conformation that the Lord has me where He wants me. May the Lord continue to Bless your ministry ~karen in Lake Wales.

    I thank the Lord for these words as I have been struggling with my 6 day work week (at a car dealership no less). Quite often complaining that I'm so tired, but when I heard Pastor JD say, "to whom much has been given, much is required", it just resonated in my head, like those words were for me.....Thank you Lord for my blessings......

    Thank you for this message even though it cuts me to the core. I very much need to hear this and even more need to practice it. God forgiveness for not being very faithful employee, husband, or father but I am still working on these. God bless.

    A wonderful message Pastor JD. It served as an answer to prayer as a second confirmation for a direction I was seeking with regards to my profession.
    May the Lord continue to bless you and your ministry. He has blessed me in my ministry (job).

    thank you Pastor JD. Something I needed to hear! I work in an office at a finance company and some days I just don't want to be here. But God! :) I work with Muslims and others and I know that I am there for them. And with God's grace and strength, I can be a witness to them for Jesus. God bless you and your family and church family xo

    I can really identify with this message. I've worked at the same company for over ten years. I've been through the worst years of my life here, people have seen me at the highest highs and the lowest lows. Through my divorce and leading into a life of debauchery. In the last year I've renewed my relationship with Jesus Christ and my life has changed no doubt. I feel like since all these people know the old me, i come across as hypocritical now. I don't think they take me seriously now. So, I've kinda pulled back and just keep to myself. I want to share the gospel, i want to share what God is doing in my life, these co-workers are friends some are like family. I know they see a difference in me. Sometimes I don't know what to do, i want to share and to be a witness, but i back down in certain situations, i feel like I'm giving in to the devil's wishes instead of obeying God and then i get down on myself and i feel discouraged. I guess I'm kinda struggling with my place in this company. I feel like I'm supposed to be here, but I don't know why, i feel like I'm supposed to be a light but i let my light get blown out. Is it enough to just live by example? But i feel like i should be doing more. I'm not very outspoken to begin with and sometimes its hard for me to get my point across or to get people to listen to me. Is it ok to just bear good fruits? I pray daily for strength and courage and for guidance, i pray that Jesus's love would flow through me and touch the lives of those i come in contact with. I know I'm not trying to live by works, I'm trying to let the holy spirit live through me, but i think sometimes I shut the door on him. Anyway, thank you for these messages posted on TH-cam, they speak to me and to others all over the world.
