Lebanon Student Testimony

We wanted to share this moving testimony from an 8th-grade student that Ziad Kazan from TMM is teaching in Lebanon. He wrote about salvation and the power of the Lord! (A local school invited Ziad to teach a Bible class. This was sent to him via email)

Hello Mr Ziad,

i hope ur doing well and that god is pouring his grace and peace over u and ur family i’ve been praying and thinking a lot lately especially after our lessons and i wanted to write u something from deep inside my heart it’s about salvation and how ur class helped me understand it in a way that changed me forever;

salvation is everything without it we are nothing we were born with original sin and separated from god but god is so merciful so full of love that he couldn’t leave us like that he sent his only begotten son Jesus to save us to suffer and die on the holy cross for our sins to rise again on the third day and open the gates of heaven for us that’s not just a story it’s the most real truth and the most beautiful gift we could ever receive

we didn’t deserve it but he gave it anyway out of pure love and mercy not because we were good but because he is good we are saved by grace a gift that we could never earn on our own it’s only through god’s mercy through Jesus christ that we have the hope of eternal life

but salvation doesn’t end with baptism it’s a journey we have to live every day saying yes to god every morning picking up our cross like Jesus said and following him no matter how hard it gets that’s why we need the sacraments they are our lifeline they give us strength and grace to keep going

in confession we receive God’s forgiveness like the prodigal son being welcomed back with love no matter how many times we fall and in the eucharist we receive the real body and blood of jesus it’s not just a symbol it’s him it’s heaven touching earth and when i receive it i feel like i’m being held by god himself.

salvation is not just about going to church or saying prayers it’s about living in god’s presence all the time being pure of heart forgiving others staying away from sin loving god above all things and always remembering that heaven is our true home

Mr Ziad i just want to tell u thank u with all my heart ur class helped me fall more in love with god u didn’t just teach Bible u showed us how to live it we’re still young and god has a purpose for each of us i really feel like God used u to talk to me and wake me up spiritually i’ll never forget that

thank u for planting the seed of God’s truth in my heart please pray for me that i keep growing in faith and stay close to Jesus forever

god bless u always and may he reward u in heaven for every soul u helped lead to him

with prayers and love,

Fatherhood, a welcoming spirit

Matthew 9

The biblical Greek word for “welcome” is most often translated as δεχομαι (dechomai), which means “to receive,” “to accept,” or “to welcome”. It can also be translated as “to receive favorably,” “give ear to,” “embrace,” or “approve”. Another relevant word is aspazomai (ἀσπάζομαι), which can mean “to greet,” “bid welcome,” or “receive joyfully”. Additionally, proslambano (προσλαμβάνω) can be used to mean “to welcome” or “to take in addition”. 

In Scripture, it is also used to describe Jesus taking a child into his arms, an embrace, or the act of listening carefully to what someone is saying.

“Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.” -Matthew 18:4-5 NIV

On this Father’s Day, these words of Jesus have touched my heart. We know that mothers are nurturing and caring, but our perception of fathers in our nation is lacking in so many ways.

The word “welcome” leaped off the page, and Jesus says not to welcome or receive a child is not to receive me.

Our nation has become one of the most unwelcome places for a child. Over 60 million babies aborted, families divided by divorce, fathers abandoning their children, child pornography, physical abuse, sexual abuse, and child sex trafficking. We see everyday children’s lives cut short in drive-by shootings. Not to mention the godless indoctrination of Woke.

Here, Jesus speaks concerning children’s value and how they should feel in our lives—WELCOMED! Jesus told His disciples that He came to show us the Father. The welcome mat of the Godhead, lead by the Father, is: whosoever will may come, freely come.

Jesus also says with great promise, “He that cometh to me I will in no way cast out.”

I believe we have missed this truth concerning children and how the kingdom of God is increased. Suffer the little children to come unto Me. You are Welcome, welcome, welcome!

This morning, as a father, is the spirit of welcoming seen in me? There is so much truth here, such as the Father waiting for the prodigal to return. The Father waits on us, ready to welcome His children no matter what condition they find themselves in.

My prayer this morning is that the children of our nation will be welcomed by their fathers, accepted and valued once again. Men of this nation, fathers, repent. That once again the welcome mat of the kingdom will be rolled out and, receiving these little ones in His name, we will welcome Him. Jesus.

I Will Sing Unto The Lord!

This morning’s song is a wonderful victory song of Moses. I am so blessed that the Holy Ghost awakens me with song. So many choruses, hymns, and spiritual songs mark our journey along our path. David says several times in Psalms, “I will sing to the Lord.” One verse says it clearly,

Psalms 104:33 – I will sing unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

Song should be a daily part of our relationship with the Lord. He does not say listen to a song, but sing to the Lord as long as you live or hath breath. I believe when David said He encouraged himself, he did it with song.

This morning I sang this chorus, rejoicing in the wonderful victory and victories we have in Jesus. The devil hates us, as believers, reminding him of Jesus’s victory over Him. He has no authority, power, or place in our lives, He has been defeated. We know this according to the word of God,

Thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of Him everywhere. -2 Corinthians 2:14  

For me, do I smell of His victory in my life? This aroma accompanies us as believers everywhere. It is the fragrance that removes the stench and stink of the world and the devil.  The aroma of the victory of Jesus is VICTORY!

Recently, the Triple Crown Horse racing finished. It is interesting the victory circle celebration drapes, blankets, and flowers over the horse while the Jockey remains mounted. Kentucky Derby red rose, Preakness Stakes black-eyed susan, and Belmont Stakes white carnation. I am sure the aroma and fragrance fills the air for all those celebrating.

The Song of Moses is one great and glorious victory song. I Will Sing Unto the Lord, as David exhorts us to do so.

Hallelujah to our VICTORIOUS KING!!!

Home!

I am celebrating with joy being home for a week now. His strength continues to work in me—He is our joy. My celebratory anthem with and in the Holy Ghost is a declaration I have sung since I was seven: Victory in Jesus.

Hallelujah, He has won the victory!!!

Sing it out today, declare His victory over death, hell, and the grave, and Satan and his kingdom of darkness!

Courageous

Celebrating our courageous fallen heroes who have laid down their lives for freedom and liberty.

The Captain of the hosts commanded Joshua to be of good courage. The best way for us as citizens is to demonstrate in our daily lives our own good courage.

Jesus said fear not and be of good courage.

Honoring courage and our fallen who showed us the way.

Be thou courageous says the Lord.

Hallelujahs!!!!
