Nebraska wildfires kill ex-fire chief hurt 15 firefighters
Our Hearts Break at this news! We are praying for all the Chief’s family, fellow fire fighters and all friends. Please be in prayer for all of our heroes everyday who risk their lives for us! We are in horrible shape here in the west. People from back home in Minnesota are asking me if we are okay! There is flooding in North Dakota from all the snow they got. The National Guard has been called in to help with the flooding. Another spring blizzard moves into North Dakota; snow, ice, rain, flooding, tornadoes all threats. The weather patterns are all shook up in the world! We as people of God need to repent of our sins and seek the face of Jesus. We have turned so wicked as a country. The last 7 years have been hell on earth, as politics became a religion for many Christians and divided this nation more than ever. Many folks have left the Church U.S. Church membership Falls. Social Science Researcher George Barna says, “Although 7 out of 10 Americans Say They Are Christians, Just 6% Actually Possess a Biblical Worldview.” Failure of the Church in America. All this equals disaster.
FGGAM Shares a Biblical Worldview Everyday:
“The Biblical worldview says there is a God—One who is personal, powerful and caring—who created the world and everything in it. It states unequivocally that man is created in God’s image, living in essence as God’s co-regent over creation. Mankind—born and unborn, rich and poor, able and disabled—has intrinsic worth. Almighty God is a sovereign God, ruler over nations, states, empires, and governments. He is to be worshiped and obeyed through the precepts and principles revealed in His infallible Word. He not only exists, but He is sovereign over all of history according to His wisdom and purposes, and He is intimately involved in every aspect of life.”
Many Churches are out of line with God. Ligonier Ministries has reported that 47% of Americans do not believe the Bible is literally true. We are in very tough shape. The many Pastors who put politicians before God, have caused great damage to the Bride of Christ. Our our recent trip to California, we carried out the Great Commission from New Mexico to California and back, meeting people where they are at, not where we are at. What does the body of Christ not understand about THE GREAT COMMISSION? IT IS A COMMAND, TO GO! GO! So many people just don’t go to Church anymore. We have to meet people outside the walls of the Church. We were not turned away by anybody as we evangelized. We have ministry tools donated to us by Charles Stanley’s ministry, they help so very much as we build love and trust with people! NO POLITICS!!! The Church and Donald Trump JESUS! JESUS! LOVE! JESUS helps me and Sharon build bridges of love and trust with people! I pray more Pastors get out on the street and meet people where they are at. They will find many do not want anything to do with the Church, with organized religion. They have witnessed Pastors and Christians supporting evil politicians and that turned them off big time. They do not want anything to do with that. I have warned about this now for years and years!
It is far time every Pastor, every Christian look into the mirror. What do you truly see?
When is the last time you and your Church had walked your city, town, or village and met people where they are at? Why not do this every Sunday? When is the last time your Church has baptized someone? The Great Commission is not a suggestion, it is a command from Jesus!

From Pastor Mark Grothe:
Father, in Your Word you have said,
When I close the sky so that there is no rain, or command the locusts to destroy the land, or send sicknesses to my people and if my people who are called by my name become humble and pray, and look for me, and turn away from their evil ways, then I will hear them from heaven. I will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now, my eyes are open, and my ears will pay attention to the prayers prayed in this place.” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15 ERV
We, Your People, in New Mexico, are coming to You and are seeking You. We are asking for Your Forgiveness for the things we have allowed or are involved in, like, late term abortion, gambling, drunkenness, legalized marijuana, debauchery, and many other things. We are not just asking for Forgiveness but for Your Help to turn from these things and the Strength to continue to not partake if there things or even to appear that we are ok with them. Help us to be more and more of The People of God that You would want us to be.
We are asking for Your Help for us to be Humble. Our Hope is that in doing so, we can lead others to do what is right. That in doing so, we can be The True Models of Your Love to others. That in doing so, we can help others in their times of crisis that they wouldn’t turn to things that keep them separate from You.
We are looking for You to do a Mighty Work of God in our hearts, lives, State and land. We are hoping for a Great Awakening of The Hearts of Your People. Our hope is that in this Great Awakening, not only would we be changed, but that it would cause a change in others around us that would bring a change everywhere.
Father, we really do want to turn from our evil ways. We know that they don’t bring You Glory. We know that they keep us from You.
Your Word also tells us,
“I write this letter to you who believe in the Son of God. I write so that you will know that you have eternal life now. We can come to God with no doubts. This means that when we ask God for things (and those things agree with what God wants for us), God cares about what we say. He listens to us every time we ask him. So we know that he gives us whatever we ask from him.” 1 John 5:13-15 ERV
As we come to You, our hope is that You would bring rains to us here in New Mexico. We have been in this drought for a long time. Our lands have become dry and have allowed for fires to kindle in multiple areas. These fires have caused many to flee from their homes and have caused lots of damage. We are asking for rains to not only bring us an abundance of water that we need but also to help aid in extinguishing these fires.
Father, we are asking You to watch over the families that are in the midst of these fires. We are also asking for You to protect those who are fighting these fires. Please, bring Your Protecting Hand over them and keep them covered from suffering loss and injury.
We are also asking You to Watch over our Law Enforcement Officers as it is getting tougher and tougher for them to do their jobs. Please Aid them to have the right discernment to do what is right. Please Protect them from the stresses they deal with in every situation they are in.
We are asking You to Aid our first responders when they go out to provide any medical aid that may be required. Please Help them to provide the care for those whom they are helping
And lastly, we lift our leaders here up to You. We are asking You to Help them to Know You as they do the jobs they were elected for. Please Guide them to make the right decisions that would bring our State back in line with You and to become one that sets examples for others.
We thank You for all that You have done for us, all that You do for us, and all that You will do for us.
In Jesus Name, Amen
Let’s keep praying and seeking for Him
