“Escucha, oh Jehova, mis palabras: Considera mi gemir.  Esta atento a los voz de mi clamor, Rey mio y Dios mio, porque a ti orare. Oh Jehova, de manana oiras mi voz; De manana me presentare delante de ti, y esperare.  Porque tu no eres un Dios que se complace en la maldad; el malo no habitara junto a ti.  Los insensatos no estaran delante de tus ojos; Aborreces a todos los que hace iniquidad.” Salmos 5:1-5

We have been blessed during the 22^nd Mission Conference!  As we continue to read each day our Bible to know God we will be guided into the field as laborers in the harvest. We cannot be slack in our obedience to “what thus saith the LORD.”

Mon-27-Judges 7:1-8:17, Luke 23:13-43, Psalm 97:1-98:9 & Proverbs 14:7-8. We like Gideon can be in the midst of trials and worship. What should we learn by hearing the sayings of Jesus” while he was on the cross?

We are blessed to have The Word of God in our own language. Consider James 4:1-17 as a warning to not be slack in our desire to know God. Read, re-read and practice praying back to The LORD in the name of The Lord Jesus Christ what he has said in the scriptures that apply to you to be and do. Hear, hearken, heed and enjoy God.

We hope you will invite your best friend to read with you the Bible with the goal of them going to heaven with you at the rapture.

Friday 24 April 2015 and we rejoice in that this could be The Day! The Day that scripture is fulfilled as Jesus comes in the clouds to call out the church. The church is akin to the ark in the days of Noah so that a person was in or he was left behind to drown in unbelief. One is "in" Jesus Christ or they are not.
There is no middle ground. Nicodemus was told in John 3 that "except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:36 "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him."

I hope your are reading your Bible to know God. We read the Bible using the One Year Bible that is formatted so to read daily some of the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs. We read through the entire Bible in one year and read it again the following year. Set aside about 18-20 minuets each day to read your Bible to know God. If you do not have that format you can follow the schedule given in the webpage.

God bless you as you seek to know Him. Learn the impact of the sin of disobedience as you read the book of Judges. We call their conduct a "cycle of sin" because they are blessed, disobey, go to bondage, cry out, God sends a deliverer, they are rescued and live in peace for a season then disobey. It is plain and clear no man can serve two masters. Whom have you chosen to serve?

Monday 20 April 2015. The question for you today is "Are there any clouds in the sky that you can see?" If you answer yes, then realize that this could be The Day that Jesus comes in the clouds to take out all believers according to 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18. Yea, are you ready?

If not, then seek God's forgiveness through confession of sin, repenting from the world unto God, The Father, in the name of his only begotten son, The Lord Jesus Christ and  believe the scriptures at Romans10:1-13, John 1:1-10, John 3:12-16 & 36, Ephesian 2:8-10 and 1stJohn 1:1-9.

Wednesday 12 April 2015 is the day that God allows all men everywhere to be saved. Fact. The sin that separates the creation(humans) from the Creator is UNBELIEF. The task for today is to read your Bible to know God and then to obey the Truth revealed to you in the scripture. Luke 17:21 makes it very plain that you have the Kingdom of God or you do not. I pray you respond to God today.

Is there anything you will not do, anyone you will not work with, any place you will not go or anything you will not give up?  Come with a bag packed. Consider throwing the stopper away, no regrets, God is good!

Thursday 9 April 2015. Hope that you are reading your Bible to know God. If you do not have the One Year Bible you may check the web page, BarnabaImpactMinistry.com,  for the daily reading schedule.

Today we see how God provides for his children at Psalm 78:72 so the question is are you being fed by God? This verse teaches me to realize either that I am feeding myself or someone beside God is filling my plate and I am missing HIM. Discipline yourself to seek your daily bread from God early and with diligence. The world and all of its ways cannot satisfy. Read to know the TRUTH and then believe what you read.

If you are not out of the grip of Satan and in the hand of God your are condemned. Hear God, respond to his calling, confess your sin of unbelief and be saved by faith in the Gospel, Jesus has paid the sin debt for all men. His shed blood is sufficient for ALL men, BUT only efficient for those who believe and receive the gift of eternal life. It is your choice. I pray God draws you today.

7 April 2015 Tuesday. Hope you all are well, safe, in good health, enjoying the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, overcome by the love of God The Father and know these truths because the Holy Spirit is teaching and comforting you. You are or you are not.

If you are not in the family of God by the new birth this could be the day of salvation. Read Psalm19, John 3:1-36, Ephesian 2:1-10 and Romans 10:1-13. Read the Bible to know God and believe what you read.  Hear, hearken, believe, receive the Word as per John 1:1-12 and become a son of God.

He (Jesus) was foretold of more that 37 times to be born. More than all this he came according to the scriptures.
