It’s time, brothers and sisters, to show the love of Jesus Christ, and use that coronavirus stimulus check money to bless someone else who needs food, clothing or shelter.

This is not going to be a long, deeply involved bible study on giving, instead it is a call-to-arms for America’s Christians to put some shoeleather on our faith and help our brothers and sisters. Did you get a COVID-19 coronavirus stimulus check this week? Good! Now check on your friends and loved ones and see if  you can take a piece of that and buy someone groceries, help with the rent, help with anything. And after you’ve done that, then call, text, and encourage the people you love in your life, and the people you love online. It’s a stimulus check, right? Go and stimulate someone who needs a shot of the love of God right now. No matter great your need is, you can still give to someone else. This is what real faith is all about, just ask the widow of Zarephath.

Jesus Christ gave us everything when He saved us, now do something for Him that shows you mean business. Put some money on the table and help someone else.

“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:” 1 Timothy 6:10-14 (KJB)

THIS IS WHAT JESUS GAVE ME AND YOU, GO BLESS SOMEONE WITH FOOD AND THE GOSPEL. IT’S THE LEAST YOU CAN DO.

We seek a better country, an heavenly, and as I write this we who are saved need to remember that. This sin-cursed world is not our home, literally, we are passing through on our way to New Jerusalem. It’s time, brothers and sisters, to show the love of Christ, and use that coronavirus stimulus check money to bless someone else in need. As of right now, I have not received a stimulus check, but guess what? I’m giving anyway, and so should you if you’re a follower of Jesus Christ. When you and I got saved, we had nothing, and Jesus gave us everything. That’s it, that’s the messag, now go thou and do likewise. Amen.

Finally, something that deserves to go viral. Faith, hope and charity.

“And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?” James 2:16 (KJB)

When two local teens skipped school for a beach senior skip day, their adventure turned into a fight for their lives, and their savior was heaven-sent.

It’s the classic story of time-honored, end of year high school hijinks, two teens skip school on Senior Cut Day, and head on over to the beach for some fun. Only on this particular day, things took a deadly turn. Tyler Smith and Heather Brown, both 17 years old, swam out too far from the shore, and realized they didn’t have the strength to swim back. Fear began to set in as it dawned on them that they were in trouble a whole lot more serious than an after-school detention.

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10 (KJV)

Faced with a rapidly-closing window on a now-uncertain future, Tyler and Heather began to pray to the God of Heaven, and that’s when their miracle happened. Believe it or not, a boat heading to New Jersey named ‘The Amen’ spotted the teens, and they were rescued in short order. God doesn’t always answer our prayers that quickly or that dramatically, but He always answers.

The greatest tool the born again believer has is access to the Throne room of God, where the bible says He hears and answers our prayers.

“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” Jeremiah 33:3 (KJV)

‘God is real’: Two teens stranded in the ocean rescued by a boat named ‘The Amen’

FROM ACTION NEWS JAX: Tyler Smith and Heather Brown, both 17 years old, have been friends since the fourth grade. They decided to swim offshore in Vilano Beach, but became stranded 2 miles off the coastline for two hours.

They began to pray.

“I cried out, ‘if you really do have a plan for us, like, come on. Just bring something.’” Smith said.  Then a boat sailing from South Florida to New Jersey spotted the teens in distress.

“I started swimming towards it. I was like, ‘I’m going to get this boat. Just stay here. I’m going to get this boat. We are going to live.’” Brown said.  Their prayers were answered in the form of a boat, a God send, named ‘The Amen’.

“The first words that came out of my mouth were, ‘God is real.’” The men in the boat brought the teens on board carried them safely to shore.

The teens are thanking God and the men who saved them. “There’s no other reason, no other explanation in the world other than God,” Smith said. READ MORE

Kate McClure didn’t expect to run out of gas on her drive to Philadelphia last month. And she definitely didn’t expect that her misfortune would give her the opportunity to change someone else’s life.

“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7 (KJV)

EDITOR’S NOTE: I don’t know if the homeless Marine in this story, Johnny, is a Christian or not. Or if the women he so selflessly helped is, either. But the type of sacrificial giving they both extended to each other is exactly what the Bible teaches on how Christians are supposed to give when they see a need. The grateful woman, Kate McClure, set up an ambitious $10K GoFundMe page to see if she could get Johnny off the streets. So far she has raised $233,308. God’s timing is always the right timing, thank you Lord for reminding me of that. Semper Fi.

Pulled over on the side of I-95, Kate McClure, 27, was approached by a homeless man named Johnny. She was apprehensive at first, but Johnny told her to get back into her car and to lock the doors while he walked to get her help. He went to a nearby gas station, used his last $20 fill a can and brought it back to fill up her car.

Grateful, but without a dollar to repay him, McClure promised she would come back with something.

VISIT JOHNNY’S GOFUNDME PAGE

In the weeks since, she’s returned to the spot along I-95 where Johnny stays with cash, snacks and Wawa gift cards. Each time she’s stopped by with her boyfriend, Mark D’Amico, they’ve learned a bit more about Johnny’s story, and become humbled by his gratitude.

Eventually, the Florence Township couple knew they had to do something more.

“I would say, ‘I keep thinking about that guy,’” D’Amico said. And McClure was thinking about Johnny, too.

So they launched a GoFundMe campaign, putting an ambitious $10,000 goal and hoping to rein in a few hundred dollars to book Johnny a motel for a few nights where he could clean up, and start to get back on his feet.

As of Wednesday, November 22, 2017, the campaign has garnered more than $34,000 in donations, and continues to grow.

“It just blew up,” McClure said, noting that donors have come forward with $5, $10 or even several hundred after she’s shared the GoFundMe to various Facebook groups. Johnny, who’s 34, told McClure and D’Amico he has been homeless for about a year. He said he was previously a certified paramedic, and also served in the Marine Corps.

After moving around the country for a time, he came to Philadelphia a year ago with a job lined up and some money to buy a truck. But soon after the job fell through, leaving Johnny surviving off meager savings.

Later, he lost his paperwork, rendering him unable to work. One night on the streets turned into a week, and ultimately a year of homelessness.

“Driving into Philly one night, I made the mistake of thinking that I would be able to make it all the way down I- 95 with my gas light on. Needless to say, I was wrong. I never ran out of gas before, and my heart was beating out of my chest. I pulled over as far as I could, and got out of the car to head to the nearest gas station. That’s when I met Johnny. Johnny sits on the side of the road every day, holding a sign. He saw me pull over and knew something was wrong. He told me to get back in the car and lock the doors. A few minutes later, he comes back with a red gas can.  Using his last 20 dollars to make sure I could get home safe.” – Kate McClure

Learning his story, and sifting through his old Facebook photos, McClure and D’Amico said they were shocked to see how quickly Johnny’s life had changed from that of a working man who vacationed on the beach to one living off the streets of Philadelphia.

“It’s crazy, you can relate to that,” McClure said. “You look through and think, ‘that could be me.’”

Last week, they surprised Johnny with the campaign, telling him they had already raised $1,700 and planned to keep going.

“That changes my life, right there,” Johnny said of the $1,700, captured in a video McClure took. “I’ve honestly met more good people than bad,” he said of his time in Philadelphia. The couple understands how their help in reaching out to landlords and vouching for Johnny’s character will help him overcome some of those hurdles.

“If we just handed him the money, it’s not going to happen,” McClure said.

Johnny has started the process of getting his paperwork replaced, as he’s currently without identification or Veteran’s Affairs papers, McClure said. He hopes to get a job at the Amazon warehouse in Robbinsville, and down the road, hopes to take the test to become recertified as a paramedic in Pennsylvania or New Jersey.

And McClure and D’Amico are confident they can get him started on that path soon, hoping to place him in a room to rent in an apartment within two weeks as they continue to fundraise.

“When I still look at (the GoFundMe), it blows my mind,” McClure said. “It’s actually going to happen for him.” source

UPDATE: So far people have donated $210,305 to help Johnny get his life back.
