"How Much Faith Is Faith?" | Carter Conlon | 5/8/2024

[@RichardNogan]

Ohh I remember clearly the brokenness with deep sorrow of heart when God was bringing me back to Him when I was sssooo lost . "My pillow was wet with weeping", God took me in and made me new, not instantly but gracefully over a course of time. Thank you Lord for Your tender mercies.🙌🙌🙌

So encouraged by this teaching today, thank you Pastor Carter Conlon. This was a timely message for the dark road I am on currently even in the Promised land. I feel oppressed and depressed and cannot see a way out in a future I want to have.

This is spot on for me always timely but this is me calling out ❤

[@sandyjuntunen4088]

Joni Eareckson Tada says some of us are meant just to suffer, & not complain til we finally get called home. But I'm struggling with that. I'm so tired of pain, nothing but hurting til you can't sleep or think & feel like you'll go crazy. I can't be any good to anyone, & I beg to go home constantly. To just end it! I don't want to be a murmurer & always complaining, I don't want the Lord to be ashamed of me, but I'm failing in my attitude a lot lately. I just want to stop hurting, and go home. I can't even pray a lot of the time bc the pains just too much. My heart knows He knows best and has a reason for all He allows, but this body & my emotions are screaming no, no more. I sure would appreciate your prayers. Thanks.

The Lord will never be ashamed of you. Faith is not automatic. We need to put it in gear and press into what God tells us. No doubting or turning left or right. 110% relying on Jesus, not ourselves. When thoughts overwhelm you...sit quiet and say "Peace Be Still". Listen to no other voices, but Gods. We are all unique. We have a different story, then Joni. Rest, relax. God approves of you. One day at a time, or one minute. God understands you and is full of compassion. ( Praying ❤)

[@wayndaholliday2215]

Praying for you. Never give up

Carry back with you the money that was returned in the mouth of your sacks. Perhaps it was an oversight. 13 Take also your brother, and arise, go again to the man. 14 May God Almighty😊❤ grant you mercy😊❤ before the man( Joseph😊❤), and may he sent back your other brother( Simeon😊❤ from Genesis 42:36b) and Benjamin😊❤. And as for me( Israel😊❤), if I am bereaved of my children, I am bereaved." 15 So the men took this present, and they took double the money with them, and Benjamin. They arose and went down to Egypt and stood before Joseph😊❤. 16 When Joseph😊❤ saw Benjamin😊❤ with them, he(Joseph😊❤) said to the steward of his house, " Bring the men( his brothers) into the house, and slaughter an animal( remind me of John 1:29 the Lamb( Jesus😊1st❤ of God😊❤) ) and make ready, for the men are to dine with me at noon😊❤." 17 The man did as Joseph😊❤ told him and brought the men( Joseph's brothers😊❤'s) to Joseph's house."( Genesis 43:11-17 ESV Study Bible and all parenthesis parts and symbols in Christ also for and in Christ Jesus😊1st❤.

2. Mark 1:12-13( The temptation of Jesus😊1st❤) "12 The Spirit immediately( the word " Immediately" Do you also remember one of Mark😊❤'s o favorite words, "Immediately" again he uses Greek. euthys "immediately, at once, " 41 times"( ESV Study Bible) in Christ?) drove him( Jesus😊1st❤ our Lord and our savior in Christ) out into the wilderness, 13 And he(Jesus😊1st❤) was in the wilderness forty(40) days, being tempted by satan( no good). And he was with the animals, and the angels( 😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤ 😊❤'s) were ministering😊❤ to him( Jesus😊1st❤ our savior in Christ😊❤)."( Mark 1:12-13 ESV Study Bible) In Mark 1:12-13, " At the commencement of Jesus'(😊1st❤'s) public ministry, God(😊100%❤) the Spirit( Mark 1:12a) paradoxicaldrive him( Jesus) "into the wilderness"( from Mark 1:12b ESV Study Bible) to be "...tempted by Satan( no good)."( from Mark 1:13 middle of the verse)( please see Matthew 4:1). Jesus'(😊1st❤'s) battle against the power of darkness( no good) has begun. " Being tempted" indicates (shows) that the temptation happened over 40- day period and were not confirmed to the three temptations mentionwd by Matthew( from Matthew 4:1-11( The temptationof Jesus) and Luke( from Luke 4:1-13( The temptation of Jesus)"( ESV Study Bible) Before i continue i hope you also one thing is confirmed is Matthew 4:4😊❤, Matthew 4:7😊❤, Matthew 4:10😊❤, Luke 4:4😊❤, Luke 4:8😊❤, and Luke 4:12😊❤ that Jesus(😊1st❤) wins later on in Christ Jesus(😊1st❤). In Jesus'name, i pray( now continue finishing the rest of the sharing in Christ and for Christ too in Christ😊1st❤). Amen. Jesus was "surrounded by evil and in danger from "...wild animals..."( from Mark 1:13b ESV Study Bible), Jesus(😊1st❤) is nevertheless not😊❤ abandoned( " not abandoned"😊❤), ( you might ask why? Or How come?) for( because) he(Jesus😊1st❤) has the presence(😊❤) of the Holy Spirit( our helper 😊❤ in Christ), and "... the angels(😊❤'s ) were ministering😊❤ to him( Jesus😊1st❤, our Lord and our savior in Christ) from Mark 1:13b ) and (please check out) Matthew 4:11 )." (ESV Study Bible) Matthew 4:11 "11 Then the devil( no good) left him( Jesus😊1st❤ = good😊❤), and behold😊❤, angels( 😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤ 😊❤😊❤😊❤'s) came😊❤ and ministering❤😊 to him( "him" equal Jesus😊1st❤ our Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) and our savior( Jesus😊1st❤) in Christ)."( Matthew 4:11 ESV Study Bible and all parenthesis parts and symbols in Christ also for and in Christ Jesus😊1st❤ our savior in Christ too in Christ😊❤. Have you ever been also tested or tempted like Jesus(😊1st❤) our Lord and our savior in Christ. Jesus wins because he quoted Scriptures from the Bible or Old Testament Scriptures too ( Matthew 4:4, 7, 10, and Luke 4:4, 8, 12) since Jesus knew( or knows) his Bible Scriptures by Good Holy Spirit in Christ ( Matthew 4:4 😊❤; Matthew 4:7😊❤; Matthew 4:10😊❤; Luke 4:4😊❤; Luke 4:8😊❤ ; Luke 4:12😊❤ ) so Jesus wins or defeated satan by the Holy Spirit ( our helper in Christ😊❤) so we also should quoted Scriptures 😊❤ from The Bible😊❤ in Christ😊❤ too. Ephesians 6:10-20(The whole armor😊❤ of God😊100%❤) or Ephesians 6:10-20( God's whole armor😊❤) in Christ😊❤. In Jesus'name, i pray( I did my part in Christ and rest is up to God of the Bible or Jesus my Lord and my savior too. Romans 9:14-15 and Genesis 12:1-3; Matthew 28:19-20 and Romans 8:28). Amen.

3. Genesis 43:18-25 "18 And the men were afraid becaue they bought to Joseph's house, and they said, " It is because of the money, which was replaced in our sacks the first time, that we are bought in, so that he may assault us and fall upon us to make us servants and seize our donkeys." 19 So they went up to the steward of Joseph's house and spoke with him at the door of the house, 20 and said, " Oh, my lord, we came down the first time to buy food. 21 And when we came to the lodging place we opened our sacks, and there was each man's money in the mouth of his sack, our monkey down with us to buy food. We do not know who put our money in our sacks." 23 He replied, " Peace to you( Shalom), do not be afraid. Your God(😊100%❤) and the God(😊100%❤) of your father has put treasure in the sacks for you. I received your money."

Genesis 44:1-5 of Genesis 44:1-34( Joseph 😊❤ Tests His Brothers😊❤'s ) Genesis 44:1-5 " 44 Then he commanded the steward of his house, " Fill the men's sack with food, as much as they can carry, and put each man's money in the mouth of his sack, 2 and put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest( Benjamin), with his money for the grain." And he did as Joseph told him. 3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away with their donkeys. 4 They had gone only a short distance from the city. Now Joseph said to his steward, " Up, follow after the men, and when you overtake them, say to them, ' Why have you repaid evil for good? 5 It is not from this that my lord drinks, and by this that he practices divination( do not practice divination today for those in Christ. Thank you :)) ? You have done evil in doing this' " "? ( Genesis 44:1-5 ESV Study Bible) Luke 4:8😊❤ "8 And Jesus(😊1st❤) answered him( the devil or satan), " It is written, " ' You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.' " "( ESV Study Bible. Jesus quoted from Old Testament Scripture because when satan or devil ( no good) tried to tempted Jesus with power and authority and their glory From Luke 4:5-7( this temptation) break the first commandment from Exodus 20:3 within the ten commandments(from Exodus 20:1-21( The Ten commandments)so that Exodus 20:3 said, "3 You shall have no other gods before me."( Exodus 20:3 ESV Study Bible) Therefore from Luke 4:8 again, Luke 4:8 "8 And Jesus(😊1st❤) answered him( the devil or satan), " It is written, " ' You shall worship the Lord your God(😊❤) , and him only shall you serve.' " "( ESV Study Bible.) This means "Jesus replies that worship😊❤ belongs to the Lord your God alone. "( ESV Study Bible.) This temptation( from Matthew 4:5-7 from satan) to Jesus our savior in Christ break the first commandment( from Exodus 20:3😊) ) so our Lord Jesus(😊1st❤) replied to satan in Luke 4:8 that worship belongs to the Lord your God(😊❤) alone. Now end this sharing with Luke 4:8 again, Luke 4:8 "8 And Jesus(😊1st❤) answered him( the devil or satan), " It is written, " ' You shall worship the Lord your God(😊❤) , and him only shall you serve.' " "( ESV Study Bible.)
