"Write the vision
And make it plain on tablets,
That he may run who reads it...
...Though it tarries, wait for it;
Because it will surely come,
It will not tarry".    
 
Habakkuk 2:2-3 [NKJV]
 
Don't just believe it,
LIVE LIKE IT!
 
 

A woman meets Jesus at a well and has her life transformed.  You know the rest of the story...
...It's found in John 4.
It all happens at the well!
Who is the true well?
The true source of living water that changes our lives?



Welling up & Overflowing in our lives and into the lives of those around us, into our town, city and to the utmost parts of the earth.

 
 
 
Discussion about the resurrection - Matthew 22:23-33.

I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
So he is the God of the living, not the dead.
Matthew 22:32.  [NLT]  
 
What a bizarre conversation we find in Matthew 22:23-33.  The Sadducees didn't believe in the resurrection and so they were trying to outwit Jesus with a tongue in cheek question meant to prove how ridiculous it was to believe in the resurrection. The law stated that if a husband died before having children, his brother was to step in and have children for him.  They made up a story of a woman who had married seven brothers who had each in turn died without having children. They're thinking was how stupid to believe in the resurrection because if all eight were resurrected who's wife would she be.  If we ignore the unlikeliness of such an event, here are a group of people who were trying to substantiate their beliefs based on a human argument.  We might not come up with such an out of the ordinary fable but we can sometimes fail to trust and even be caused to doubt what God's word says because of complications that we see.  But God is God. Just because there are some things that we cannot understand, does not dictate whether something God says is true or not!  If God says it you can trust it!
Jesus leads in with a verse from the Torah which the Saducees believed that showed that God spoke of a resurrection. He said in Exodus 3:6 that He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob after they themselves had died. God is not limited by our understanding.  Therefore let us allow our understanding to be stretched by God and his word! leading us to live in faith!!!
 
 

                  Pastor Richard Wurmbrand was imprisoned for 14 years in communist Romania in the 1950's and 1960's. He inspired the founding of Release International in 1968 to serve persecuted Christians and to make the Church in the West more aware of this suffering. This organisation now serves persecuted Christians in more than 30 countries around the world by supporting pastors and Christian prisoners, their families and working for justice. The writings of Richard Wurmbrand give powerful testimony to the way God was at work during his years of imprisonment and torture. More recent accounts of Christians in prison have had similar stories. In the book of Acts Paul saw the Lord working dramatically in various situations while in prison. Let us continue to remember that though the Christians may be captive * the Lord isn*t, Keep on praying.

4. That God will thwart plans of the extremist groups Al Shabaab in Kenya and Boko Haram in Nigeria
5. For the release of all Christian prisoners in Iran, many of whom are pastors.
6. For Iran*s President Hassan Rouhani that he will work hard to improve their nation's record on religious liberty.
