Praying is Working

Buy me Burrito!
Burritos are delicious. Meat, beans, sour cream, veggies, wrapped in a tortilla. We all enjoy burritos! But you know that you cannot have what is good without somebody paying for it. If you have enjoyed things on my website, please consider helping me maintain the expenses of this site. Consider at least a one time donation to this ministry of $10 or $20 dollars? Very infrequently (one person every 3-6 months) will somebody donate something. Usually that is all I receive from 34 websites! Yet, from my download statistics, I have about 96 gigabytes total being downloaded monthly from all of these websites. Be a blessing to me and donate any amount. It would be really great if you could gift me and my wife (who splits a burrito?) this money so that we could enjoy eating out at least once in a while. (I pay the expenses for these sites out of our living expenses.) God will richly bless you and repay you for your generosity. 1 Timothy 5:18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. If you received some value from my websites, consider at least a small donation. A big donation would really be nice, too, though.

JAMES 5:13-20.

Is any among you suffering? let him pray (1). Is any cheerful? let him sing praise. Is any among you sick? let. him call’ for the elders of the church; and let them pray (2) over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: and the prayer of faith (3) shall save him that is sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, it shall be forgiven him. Confess therefore your sins one to another, and pray for one another (4), that ye may be healed: The supplication (5) of a righteous man availeth much in its working. Elijah was a man of like passions with us, and he prayed fervently (6) that it might not rain; and it rained not on the earth for three years and six months.. And he prayed again (7) ; and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her, fruit. My brethren, if any among you do err from the truth, -and one convert ‘him let him know, that he who converteth a sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins.


ch49 The Biblical Pastor: The Biblical Duty
outlines the duties of a pastor.
Topics: Pastoral Watchcare | Threats to wicked Pastors | Spiritual feeding | Being a Watchman (warning and protecting) | Pastoral Visitation | Intercession by prayer | Pastoring because you love Christ.
Excerpt: The concept of “visit” or “visitation” refers to the pastoral duty (spiritual watchcare of others) in which he analyzes the problems to effect a remedy. This concept is basically “visit”. Jesus identified the true believer as a person which has the naturally emerging joy to serve and help others.
