WHAT DO WE DO WHILE WE ARE WAITING?

  It was my youngest daughter who gave me the idea for the title of this sermon. She had recently been waiting for some friends at a restaurant for some time. She had been wondering what she should do and decided to buy a flower for one of her friends. She came from a country far off. The flower was received with great appreciation. What other alternatives did she have? She could have become irritated and thinking that she wasted her time. She could have accused her friends and she could ... (read more)

Don’t give up!

15th of May Do you remember that I have written that there will be many births this year? I do not primarily think of biological children, but I think of God’s plans and visions. They will come to pass this year. I said that birth-pains could be painful and it is not easy to give birth. Mine were not easy ones. When you see the child, you forget the pains and you know that it was worth the pain and the hard work. You rejoice in the result. I participate in different groups and we pray a lot. ...

We want to give birth to an Isaac

1st of May I can almost see the question marks in the faces of some of you. What is she thinking about now? Is she suggesting a name for our boys? I am a man and I can’t give birth to a child. Where are you heading? I will explain, but first I want us to look up Genesis the 16th chapter. I think that you should read the entire chapter. It is about Abram’s wife Sarai who was old and childless. She had a maidservant with the name of Hagar and she wanted her husband to be with her in order ... (read more)

How are you reacting to the end-time prophesies?

15th of April The Old Testament has quite a few prophesies about the last days and so has the New Testament. I am not an end-time prophet and do not have a revelation about everything the Bible says about it, the return of Jesus and what will happen when the Bride is ascended to heaven, but there are lot of prophets writing and speaking about these things. Many are to be read at internet. Some are specific and others are more general. In whom should we trust and what should we believe? The ... (read more)

Do you feel secure?

15th of March Some people will ask: Secure, in connection to what? That is a good question since we can feel very secure in some situations, but very insecure and fearful in others. We can also be very comfortable with some people, but feel very uncomfortable and insecure with others. Others seem to be very secure on the outside, but they keep a façade in order to hide their insecurity. They hesitate to show this side of themselves to others. Everybody doesn’t even know that they are ... (read more)

My thoughts for 2007

December 28th We will soon leave the year of 2006. How did you experience last year? Each and every one of us could tell our own story. For some of us it has been a good year, but for others it might have been a year full of sickness and sorrow. What do we do with what has been? I want you to meditate on the year of 2006. Have you thanked God for being your Father? Did you thank Jesus for being your Savior? Did you thank the Holy Spirit for being your Helper? Maybe you did’nt even use the ... (read more)

Jesus is the life

December 18th THE LIFE. Jesus IS Life, HAS Life and GIVES Life. Jesus was from the very beginning when God created Heaven and Earth and everything living on the earth. He created at the end man i His image. God SAID and it WAS. Words have the power of life and death. It says in John 1.1 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” It continues to say that He was with God and in Him was life, and the life was the light of men. God has created ... (read more)

Jesus is the truth

December 8th Jesus does not say that He has the truth, but He IS the Truth. That means that there cannot exist any lies in Him, not even a little one. All of Jesus is Truth. I looked up in a dictionary and looked for the different meanings of truth. I found many explanations depending on which philosophy or faith you had. They mentioned absolute truths and logical truths. That means that you draw a conclusion, based on what is said. I believe that Jesus was and is absolute true. God is also ... (read more)

Jesus is the way

November 28th I want to write about Jesus as the way, the truth and the life. The first will be about THE WAY. In the same scripture you can read that no one comes to the Father, but through Jesus. (John 14:6) In the world to-day we are so afraid to step on somebody’s religious toes that we hardly dare to preach that there is only One Way to salvation or one way to God. That road is called Jesus and only Jesus gives us admission to God. In certain countries it is forbidden to preach that ... (read more)

The Word of God is your food, part 2

November 18th Part 2. We are continuing to compare the Word with the food we eat or choose not to eat. I wrote that we need variation in our diet. If we have a one-sided diet, we become undernourished. In some churches, they teach a lot about the word of salvation and grace. This teaching might have led you to make the decision of salvation and you are very happy. You continue in the same church and the problems of every-day life arise. You might have problems with paying your bills and you ... (read more)
