Attention turns more to the role of out-of-state rioters
We are so blessed to have Sister Connie Keyohara on Team Jesus! Preach it Sister!
So Peter opened his mouth and said: “Truly I understand that God show’s no partiality.
Acts 10:34
Jesus told us, “As I have loved you, so you must love one another,”
John 13:34
Being racist is contrary to what Christ said in the book of Matthew. We know this Golden Rule, we should have learned it in kindergarten:
“Treat others the way you would have them treat you.”
Racism is demonic and evil and it goes against what God said about loving our neighbor.
We cannot claim to love Christ unless we love our neighbor, and Racism is the opposite of this commandment.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no commandment greater than these.”
Mark 12:30&31
Scripture reminds us that we are created in God’s likeness and image.
Paul addressed this issue; “There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him”
Romans 10:12
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
James 2:9
“After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.
Revelation 7:9
Hating others is a sin, God hates sin Therefore, there is absolutely no room for this behavior in a Christian life.
If you’re a follower of Christ and you’re racist, you have to check yourself. This is absolutely NOT a characteristic of a follower of Christ.
Pray for our country, pray hard!
Many Blessings,
Connie Keyohara

Alert: Our nation needs your prayers 
Dear Friend,
As our nation convulses with pain, anger, and hatred, this is a moment for Christians to shine for our Lord, who is the Prince of Peace. The Bible says, “Do not let the sun go down on your anger” (Ephesians 4:26, ESV), yet each sundown is bringing with it the darkness of more violence and destruction in more cities. Scripture also tells us, “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good” (Romans 12:21). This means doing what we personally can do to right wrongs and help the hurting. It also means praying fervently to our Heavenly Father for Him to change hearts and heal our land. The One “who is in you” — Christ — “is greater than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4).
Because this is true, I am calling on all churches across our nation to make today — Sunday, May 31 — a time for special intercession for our nation in their Sunday morning services, whether in person or online. Will you pray, and will you share this with your pastor?
We need to pray for PEACE, because “the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God” (James 1:20).
Pray for PERSPECTIVE, because “the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere” (James 3:17).
Pray for PATIENCE, because of God’s “kindness and forbearance and patience” toward us all (Romans 2:4). And pray for an OUTPOURING of His wisdom and direction for our leaders and officials who are dealing with this crisis. Ask God to change hearts and heal this divide in our nation.
Today is Pentecost Sunday, which marks the day the Holy Spirit filled Christ’s followers after He ascended back to the Father. There is no better time for us to seek a fresh visitation from God upon our lives, homes, churches, communities and country.
May God bless you,
