What's Next "After?" (5.21.17)

After a year-in-year-out rehearsal; observing and remembering the death, burial, and resurrection of The Lord; the question (or thought) becomes, Between being saved and going on to be with The Lord, Now What? [Pastor]

Just as Abraham (the father of the faith) believed God, and righteousness was imputed unto him ...it is written that imputation (of righteousness) was not for Abraham's sake alone; but for us also “if we believe” on Him that raised up Jesus from the dead; and delivered Him for our offenses, and raised Him again for our justification                                                   [Rom 4:12; James 2:23; Rom 4:22-25]

Now we get to learn how to have faith in God, and faith in His promises ...and how to believe Him, in the midst of day-to-day life ...”For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.” 

And this revelation (of His righteousness, and faithfulness) is the working of The Spirit of God.              

 [Pastor; Romans 1:17; Zechariah 4:6]

Dear GTFI Family,

Beloved, our Father has given many infallible proofs that Lord Jesus is alive in us. We have heard recent testimony from Elders Willie and Elizabeth Green, Sister Marilyn, Brother Wiley, Sister Donna, and Sister Danielle, who all proclaim that HE provides, heals, and delivers! HE supplies that which we "think" we need and more than what we even ask. Our Father knows how to love us! Behold what manner of love HE has given to the body at Grace and Truth Fellowship International. "With grateful hearts, we pour out our praise to HIM."

Hallelujah!

Love in Christ Jesus,
Sister Jenelsie, Pastor's wife

Understanding/Apprehending Impossible: Part 2 (5.7.17)

For man to “be” supernatural, and “do” supernatural, he needs The Supernatural connection (Holy Ghost) (aka, The Comforter/Spirit of Truth) [John 16:13-14] to Understand, Apprehend, and “believe” in the Impossible (or God-possible).

[Pastor]

 Whereas, “in times past,” God's channel of communication was “the prophets;” ...“in these last days,” God's channel of communication (or Message) is His Son, Jesus Christ (Who is The Truth).

[Hebrews 1:1-3; Pastor; John 14:6]

As our spiritual father, Abraham, was strengthened in faith, at the spoken promise of God; so we, too, can be strengthened, by God, to trust in the power (ability) of God to perform the Impossible. [Romans 4:19-21]

ThenSingsMySoul:

GOT ANY RIVERS YOU THINK ARE IMPOSSIBLE?

GOT ANY MOUNTAINS YOU CANNOT TUNNEL THROUGH?

GOD SPECIALIZES IN THINGS THOUGHT IMPOSSIBLE

AND HE CAN DO WHAT NO OTHER POWER,

(HOLY GHOST POWER) CAN DO.

Jenelsie's Corner (5.6.17)

My GTFI Family,

The grace of God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ is given to us. Our minds are in transformation; washing and renewal are taking place. Holy Ghost is performing "ground work" as it pleases Father so that His seed will remain in our hearts and produce a harvest of "believing" HIM to "apprehend impossible."

So, beloved, we think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try us, as though some strange thing is happening. At this point we can rejoice by the power of the Holy Ghost with an "understanding"--His glory shall be revealed in us and we may be glad also with exceeding joy! And we shall come forth as a witness to the "hope of His calling" to man--the Godhead now living in us!

Hallelujah!

Your sister in Christ Jesus,
Jenelsie, Pastor's wife
