Well hello again my brothers and sisters in Christ. I seem to be using this vlog more as a prayer request line than anything else, but I want to tell everybody. I do appreciate you listening to me and I appreciate your prayers and encouraging words. I had the opportunity last night to speak to a man about the overcoming power that the Holy Spirit gives you when you accept Christ as your savior. I believe I may be getting through to him, but he reminds me of myself whenever I was in the world. He's heavier set with long facial hair and long hair on his head. He smokes marijuana and he's all about being peaceful and loving. But he has low self-esteem because of his drug addiction and because of his weight I can relate because I was the same way. For those of you who have seen my post with my picture, you know I was no small man and it does weigh on you physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. And when you have an addiction on top of that usually caused by the depression of being heavyset or from rejection, whatever the reason may be, it hurts. But like I told him until you realize that you are worth somebody, you are worth something until you come to the realization that you like yourself the way you are for who you are free of any drug induced feeling. You'll never amount to the feeling that you are worthy of somebody or of something better. It's a depressive state. I said all that to say this I have fallen hard. The more I preach the word, the more the devil attacks. As soon as I preach the word of overcoming I myself fell weak to temptation. I ask myself how can I preach the word and then fell in the same area that I've been preaching. I didn't use drugs. There's still no desire there, but I fell into sexual lust if we're going to be completely honest and I'm going to be open as a book with you. I gave into the devil's biggest lie which is I wanted that which is natural but in the way that is unnatural to the kingdom workers lifestyle but very natural to the devilish worlds lifestyle. I beat myself down because of this because it seems to be the one area of my life that I cannot seem to get under control it bothers me because of my calling but the main reason it messes with me isn't nothing to do with a calling or a fear of man 's society and ruling. It bothers me because I fear losing out with God. I know this is a good thing because if I didn't have that fear I would have to question. If I ever truly had God to begin with, I'll cut this short so that people don't get tired of reading before it's finished. But I want to ask each one of you to please keep me in your prayers at Jehovah would destroy this demon off of me that when it comes to tempt me, there's no temptation at all. Only frustration that leads me to casting it out in Jesus name. I also thank you for your prayers for me to be able to spread the word and for your opportunity to spread the word on here as well. It is paying off but I am being fought against tooth and nail. I know I have the victory in Christ Jesus and I know I'm more than a conqueror through the blood of the lamp and the word of my testimony keep me lifted up that through my weaknesses Christ will be made strong in me. Thank you and God bless!

 

Well I know you have good intentions about getting married. But you do have a pretty girlfriend I'd fall into lust myself the only thing you can do is. Have a proper courtship.

Work hard save money and then get married and I want to thank you for posting it's a very real down to earth statement.

 

Hi Roland,

keep walking by spirit and you will carry out no fleshly desire at all, for the flesh is against the spirit in its desire, and the spirit against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, so let them fight it out, you are no longer under obligation to the flesh, you have been bought for Christ and set free, just engage the Holy Spirit, it works like power steering; you still need to turn the wheel, but you no longer have to struggle with it, as you would without it. Ga 5:16

I will keep praying for you, brother, cheers


Harry

 

Good to meet you Roland!

 

Hello everybody, it's been a minute since I've posted anything. I strongly apologize for being so absent for so long. I've been going through the fire And I've been facing battles. Some I win and some I lose as it goes!

Through it all Jehovah has held me and Jesus has helped me. The Holy Spirit has empowered me and even in my falls He shows me where I have grown.

I would like to say that it's because my job keeps me so busy that I haven't posted but that would only be a partial truth because even though my job keeps me busy, I should always find time to preach the Word of God.

My failure to preach is more towards the fact that I've just been negligent of my duty and for that I'm sorry. I hope that Jehovah will help me in the future to do better about being vigilant at spreading His Word with the world!

I have still continued to love Jesus and to lift the name of Jehovah to the highest degree and to believe all that He has promised and received it by Holy Spirit power, but I have not prayed or preached nearly as much as I know I should and I have felt the effects of it in my spiritual life, but all of this can be used as a witnessing tool!

You see, it shows that if we want to maintain a spiritual strength we must continue in the good works that Jehovah has called us to or we will pay the consequences. Though they may not be physical imprisonment or any such punishment, we will fill the effects in our spirit of weakness and failures!

So it goes to prove scripture accurate when the apostle Paul says that we are to walk in newness of life and to be sober, vigilant, instant and season out of season. Always ready to give a good report and a reason for our faith!

When we neglect to do this, our Spirit man suffers and the punishment is that we feel miserable. We feel weak, inadequate and sometimes just plum sorry for ourselves if we're not careful.

I've always believed that if you fail to continue walking in your faith and obeying the word of God that your salvation can be lost. But I'm beginning to understand that He will strive with you to bring you back in alignment with his word.

The only time hope is ever lost is when our final breath is drawn and we take it without going back to our first love and beginning to do the good works and obeying the Word of God, both spoken and written!

But knowing this, we shouldn't continue to sin by disobeying God through neglecting to preach, teach, sing, or share the gospel in whichever way He has called you to, for we are all unique and each of us have our own unique style and method of witnessing, but rather we should become truly repentant and return to the Good Shepherd and begin our first works over because tomorrow is not promised to a single soul. And if today was our last, the question we should ask ourselves is this:

Am I ready to meet Jehovah and hear the words? Well done. You good and faithful servant? Or would I see Jesus point to the flames of hell and hear him say depart from me you worker of lawlessness into the torment prepared for Satan and his followers!?

My friends, it's a serious question but only you can answer for you and only I can answer for me.

I'm thankful that I realize this now because that means that through the fire that I'm going through I have and am being saved. My prayer for each one is that they realize it as well and become saved as through the fire. Amen!

God bless each one of you continue to keep me in your prayers as I can continue to keep you in mine and let us lead each other through example and through word into the everlasting Kingdom of Jehovah God that we may see each other in Paradise at the last day!

 

Well Mr Rowland you go right ahead and do all the typos you want I enjoy reading what you're writing I enjoy seeing the change!

I'm hopeful for you I think that you will have a wonderful life you're off to a great start keep up the good work my friend keep ministering.

And come eat with us on Saturday or Sunday.

 

I've been reading your posts here I can certainly identify with them I remember when I was your age. I'll give you the council straight from the Bible rejoice young man and be glad in your youth.

But no this that everything you do in your youth God has his eye on you and will judge you for it.


This is your time to build your house and your foundation whatever you concentrate your mind on right now that's going to be your house you're dwelling place for the rest of your life.

I can only tell you don't do what I did in my younger life and devote yourself to drugs and women and fast cars.

In the end it bites you in the butt and you get a jail cell.

Find yourself a good woman a good job settle down and get married and both of you go to the same Church believe the same thing in Jehovah God and in Jesus Christ.


Don't do like I did and think I'm going to get me a woman and I'll get her to think righteous and to go to my church and live happily ever after.


But keep up the good work keep praying to Jehovah on a daily basis in the name of Jesus if you keep doing that things will work out

 

Roland wants per week I post a chapter out of the Bible it goes along with pictures and it goes along with one question.

I generally use the American standard version or the King James please participate in this study and if you want to post the next chapter in the study and put some pictures and a question in the same format like I do.

Please by all means do so.


This goes for absolutely anybody else if you want to go ahead and post the next chapter along with a picture and a question just like I've been posting step on up to the plate.


Friends were writing a Bible here for the next generation unlike no other Bible a fully illustrated Bible with a study question for each and every chapter.



Let's make something out of this!

Thank you everybody that contributes

 

LOL. I like fast cars too! And good food. It shows in my physique!!

But on a serious note, I wouldn't have anything that I have in life If it wasn't for Jehovah God and for Jesus Christ my Lord, so for even the slow cars and the good food that I have I'm very thankful and I just want to do everything I can to show God that I'm thankful.

I don't want to be the one that says thank you but doesn't show it. I want to be the one that shows my Thanksgiving, because Christ showed his Thanksgiving for mankind being made in his image, And for those who truly desired to know our Father in heaven by giving his life, the ultimate sacrifice. He didn't just say I love you. He showed his love.

 

Keep up the good work Mr Brown! I always enjoy reading your posts stay away from the fast cars lol they go with fast women!
Been there and done that LOL
