Jeremiah 14:22
Are there any among the false gods of the nations that can bring rain? Or can the heavens give showers? Are you not he, O Lord our God? We set our hope on you, for you do all these things.
This morning we have the swamp coolers off and the windows open! God has sent us cooling temps and rain! Praise God!
We have been praying for over 4 years here in New Mexico for rain. I remember the days on New Mexico News and Views on KKIM radio in Albuquerque, whether it was Pastor Mark Tross, Pastor Leonard Navarre, or Paul Holt, we were always praying for rain. We would encourage the people of New Mexico to repent of our sins and come to Jesus Christ for healing rains. The drought has been severe. Sin has been severe. God prevails. We seem to do everything we can to prevent God from healing our land, from aborting babies, allowing drunk drivers to continue to drive, loving our alcohol and gambling,(Can you picture Jesus walking into a casino and overturning the tables?) to killing a dog and having it for dinner, that is the latest news from New Mexico. We cannot expect God to bless us and our land as we sin. But God prevails, God is sending his healing rains to the state. God has not given up on us. His grace prevails. We pray for many to come to Jesus Christ our Lord this day. There is no political solution to any of this, it is all about God, it is about giving your life to God and following His word, His commandments, the 10 Commandments. That is why some towns in America are bold enough yet, to post the 10 Commandments at their City Hall. If you do not understand any of this or have questions about this email me or call me, we would love to share about Jesus Christ. My contact info is on this page. Parts of drought-stricken New Mexico have seen record rainfall and forecasters say more is coming.
Please listen to our weekly radio program where we address these issues:
