- Be thankful. Turn your life around.
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
Each of us have thoughts where we could feel sorrowful or complain. We also have things for which we can be thankful. If we learn to deliberately choose to think on those things for which we are thankful, we can turn our lives around.
Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.There are times when your husband or wife or friend does trifle things which annoy you. As you think on the grievances, you puff up and sometimes strike out.If you will pray, asking God for help, and also deliberately think of things whereby your husband or wife or friend did things that caused you to rejoice, the grievances often fly away, disappearing.Devils often attack by bringing negative thoughts to our minds. Our flesh sometimes wallows in those thoughts and things get much worse. And there is no good thing in our flesh, says Paul. (Romans 7 )We, who have the power of the Holy Spirit of Jesus living in us, have in HIM a great power for good toward ourselves and toward others also if we will live in HIS power.Galatians 5:15-16 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. This I say then, Walk in the Spirit (that which God brings to your mind), and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.It is not that we act in a phony way. But there are real things that other person has done for us which we can think on, blessings from God by that other person.Learn to think on those things, especially when you want to strike out.And above all, pray, asking God to help you in the midst of the attacks, for God will help you when you desire help.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )37 min - Tested by God to see if we will obey God
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
Shortly after I was born again, I had a very big test to see if I would do what God told me to do. I owned a small business. A woman filed a court charge against me. I had brought to my mind these words, "Don't testify." I believed this instruction was from God.
At that time, I didn't even know the Holy Spirit leads us and guides us and teaches us in things of God.
I don't know how I thought that word was from God, but I did.
I had no idea my own friends would rise up against me, but they did.
This was the first of many very strong tests that I had through the next 40+ years.We are tested along the way to see what we will do. Some test are enormously strong. Others seem minor but are not minor. Each test is important. For Jesus says, But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. Mt. 24:13( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )59 min - God makes a way where there is no way
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
When God purposes something in our lives, HE makes a way for that to come to pass.
Isaiah 55For MY thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways MY ways, saith the LORD.9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are MY ways higher than your ways, and MY thoughts than your thoughts.10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of MY mouth: it shall not return unto ME void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.God's ways surprise us!( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )45 min - Using the great power of God that is in us to do the will of God on this earth
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
God has placed each of HIS people in a role on this present earth with an "assignment" to do.
How do we know our assignment? It is simple. Our assignment is where we are right now.
* A husband and father ... a wife and mother ... a businessman ... a teacher... a mechanic ... a waitress.We begin where we are.Our goal in our assignment: To serve God in all things and to reflect God in our actions.Each of us have been equipped by God to succeed.Pray, asking God what you are to do today. Ask God how you are to fulfill today's assignment. Ask God to give you wisdom to do that which you need to do, for understanding and wisdom are from God.Follow the concepts and scriptures given you by the Holy Spirit who dwells in you. Keep them before you throughout the day.There is a great Holy Spirit in us to enable us to do all the will of God in the matters set before us. Follow that Holy Spirit doing what HE brings to your mind. Asking God to fill your day. Depending on God rather than on yourself.The starting point for us as we live today is presented in this Podcast.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )27 min - The way of the ungodly will perish
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
They call themselves Christians, but they do that which is right in their own eyes, in their own way of thinking. They do not call on God for HIS wisdom in the specific issues at hand.They are life a leaf blowing in the wind. They go one way then the opposite way without any thought at all.They do not seem to have faith that God will communicate HIS will to themselves, therefore they don't think to ask God.The ones who hear from God are like a rock which will never fall.But the way of the ungodly, those who fail to consider that which God wants them to do, their way of doing things, will perish.Psalm 1:4-6 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )5 min - Jesus says: "I can of mine own self do nothing. As I hear (from God) I judge." John 5:30
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
We should be exactly the same as Jesus. We should understand that of our own selves we can do nothing. We hear from God the Father through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us and we learn to follow THAT Word.
John 14:26But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.John 16:13Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear (from God), that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.We recognize the thoughts that are from God by the following:James 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.But if we are in envy and strife there is confusion and every evil work. James 3We must give up the envy and strife through repentance and prayer.Psalm 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.Antichrist in the churches thinks he can do the works of God by his own wisdom and he does not call on God for wisdom concerning his plans, for he is opposite to God and thinks of himself to be able to do spiritual things.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )
8 min - The devil will try to destroy us but we can keep that from happening through prayer
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
A woman in our church group stored up things against me in her own heart. She did this over a period of years. And finally she let herself go and struck against me. By this, the devil destroyed her. And there was nothing I could do to bring her back.
It is so easy to deal with destructive thoughts and keep ourselves through God.Devils will try to get you to be offended with other people. But if you will begin to deliberately think on all the good things that person has done toward you, the devil will flee from you!This same woman who struck at me once said to me, "You are the most godly woman I've ever known."WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?Devils bring thoughts to our minds. If we take in those thoughts we will ruin ourselves. She failed, through the years, to take thoughts to God to allow God to establish the truth. She just lived by the thoughts brought by devils and agreed with him.We must beware and not do this.John 10:10 Jesus said: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I (The Word) am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.The apostle Paul told us:Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. (Philippians 2:12)
Endurance comes by turning to God in prayer concerning the issues of this life and allowing God to establish HIS truth by HIS Spirit so we can hold on to HIS way.Devils will delude us and lead us the wrong way if we let them.Examples in this podcast.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )19 min - The power of meditating in the Word of God
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
As we keep a scripture before us day and night, we find eventually we have a power in us which enables us to follow that scripture.
In the Bible is it described as follows:Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.God leads the New Testament church today by HIS Spirit, the Holy Spirit, who lives in the believer.
When God speaks to us to reveal The Word to us, the Holy Spirit is also given to those of us who believe that Word. We are sealed by God with the Holy Spirit. (Eph. 1)One of the things done by the Holy Spirit is to remind us of the Word God has given us. That shows us what we are to think upon and to do at this point in our lives.Thus we are given various scriptures to lead us and guide us and comfort us and help us. God does this by the Holy Spirit bringing these scriptures to our mind. We then think on these scriptures and apply them to our lives. Often we need to keep that scripture before us day and night, morning and evening, until it really becomes a part of us.I am currently working on the following scripture:Romans 12:18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
I look at this scripture each morning and think on the instruction given me by this scripture.At night, when I go to bed, I look again at this scripture to check myself and see if I have done what this scripture tells me to do as I have lived that day.In a few days, as I do this scripture, it will become a part of my daily life and it will overcome my flesh which wants to quarrel with other people.I believe we are recreated in the image of Christ (The Word) each time we do a scripture.In this podcast, I will speak with you about ways to set up scriptures on your Kindle tablet in your Photos (or I-phone), so you can keep scripture before you easily and think upon those scriptures given you by the Holy Spirit of God.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )43 min - Looking for peace and living in peace
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
In 1980, I was in France. As I listened to the people walking past me, it was so lovely and peaceful. Then I realized: "It is peaceful to me because I can't understand what they are saying!"
One day, we come to this understanding:II Peter 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.We can't make this present earth righteous.It is the "new heaven and new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness."But as Christians we do live in peace by learning to take every concern to God in prayer and by settling the matter with God by the Spirit of God and by living in the truth given to us by God concerning the issue at hand.We, like Abraham, set our goal and mind as follows:Genesis 14:21-23 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself. And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:We, as children born of the Spirit of God, do not look to governments of men for our "riches" or well being on this earth. We determine that which we have will be given to us by God. We do not seek the lottery money. We see God's plan for our well being.We do not protest in the streets when people do unrighteous acts. For we know humans will be unrighteous on this earth.We seek our well being from God and live in peace through prayer by trusting in God.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )11 min - Taught by God
Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...
If we are born of the Spirit of God, we are taught by God. Most people in churches today are not taught by God. They put themselves into the churches by going forward and being baptized without having the Spirit of God ... or they joined the church by the will of man.
John 6 Jesus said:
44 No man can come to ME (The Word), except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I (The Word) will raise him up at the last day.45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of (by) God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of (from) the Father, cometh unto me (The Word).Man loves to "glory in the flesh" of man. Therefore the Jews in the New Testament church in the day of Paul said the believers from the Gentiles had to be circumcised. (Galatians 3-5) They wanted to glory in the flesh of that which man did.Today they want to glory in our flesh by telling people things we did. But I've found when I tell then that God had me do that thing over which they glory, most flee from me. They don't want to glory in things God has done. They want to glory in my flesh, in things I have done.That person who is really of God glories in that which God has done.Jesus said: I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. (John 5:30)Like Jesus, we can do nothing except that which we hear from God by HIS Spirit, the Holy Spirit.And by HIS Spirit we are taught by God concerning the will of God and that which God wants us to do as we live on this present earth.( Click here for podcast and to see scriptures )33 min
