Sharing at Enmark

So today after my jogging class, I was driving home and noticed I was out of gas....I was on my way to Enmark (2.11/gal!) and knew that God wanted me to share with somebody there. I normally have to choose either inside or outside witnessing because I would have to block the pump taking so much time. So I told God that if He wants me to share with the clerk to give me a sign to go inside and if not I would share with the person at the next pump. So I pumped my gas and sure enough...the receipt didn't come out and the machine read, "Go see cashier"....It has never done this with me at that station and I go there all the time! So, to make sure I didn't deny God's easy ability to show me a sign I just said, "Thanks God, please prepare their hearts" and walked in with boldness. I got my receipt and handed them a tract and asked the question, "what do yall think happens after death?" to which one girl working said, Heaven somewhat rudely and the other lady said she didn't know. I asked where they think they personally would go and the girl said, "Heaven, I'm sure of it" and I said, "What makes you sure?" to which she said, youv'e gotta do what the Bible says. The woman said, "I don't know about me, but does judgement come after you die or do you just lay in the dirt?" I told her that the Bible states that man will die, then face the judgement. So I said, God has a standard for us to meet to see if were holy enough. Its the 10 commandments, and they are impossible for mankind to keep without breaking, which is required by God.....for instance, Have you ever told a lie? to which thw woman said yes and I said, that means that your guilty of breaking God's law and He must judge sin. Youve got to humble yourself before God and confess your sin and surrender (give up on trying) and tell God that He needs to change your heart and make you a new creation to desire what is good and hate was is evil....Only Jesus can cleanse you of your sin and thats why He came to be your pure and spotless lamb sacrifice. She said she would be guilty before God and that it scared her to think about going to Hell. I asked her if she knew what she needed to do and she said, "Yes". I told her to read Psalm 51 and to start reading John as well. She wanted the Gospel of John booklet I had in my car and I gave her "One Heartbeat Away" by Mark Cahill to help her out. She told me to come see her again and I promised I would.....One cool thing was that all the people who came in the store when I was sharing heard the Gospel, because I was proud of it! It was so awesome to experience this and to see that God wants to be a big deal to people....He wants people to stop thinking about themselves for one second in their day and to think about Him and how they need to live for Him with every part of who they are. God is so Great! I don't see how anyone could deny His greatness....plus there is so much proof of it...everything points to Him. If you read this and have ANY questions about God or life, write me and I would LOVE to share with You why I believe wholeheartedly in my Maker and King. Be blessed and Go serve Him.

Grateful for an Unequaled Wife

I have been listening to the marriage conference held at Southern Seminary recently online at night with Emily and have been reminded that I, as a husband, have not been faithfully cherishing my wife as I ought. I was greatly challenged by C.J. Mahaney's message that stated the importance to have regular scheduled opportunities for uplifting your spouse and giving her a chance to get away from the mother personality for a short time. I was also challenged by listening to Dr. Russell Moore's message about fighting for your marriage like Christ stood against the Enemy for our good out of his steadfast love. I as a husband have been blessed with the most unequaled wife of all. There is no other woman on the planet who can come close to Emily Ruth Wynn and I need not look any further than her. She is always utterly encouraging to me and her wonderful love in my life challenges me to be the man God has called me to be. There are several things that I love about Emily. One of the ...

Gospel Summary: Turned to God from Idols

Today I read: 1 Kings 18, Psalm 39, Ezekiel 48, and 1 Thessalonians 1. Gospel summary: Man naturally is an idol worshiper and it is only by the convicting and converting power of the Holy Spirit that we can see the vanity of serving dumb idols and turn in repentance and faith to the one true God to serve him with our few earthly years before God's wrath is poured out on idolatrous people. Prayer: Father in heaven, you are the only true God and there is no other threatening to de-throne you. As the sole creator and sustainer of all things, you deserve all my praise, but I have lived serving vain and helpless idols. By the power of your Holy Spirit through the preaching of your gospel, you opened my eyes to how I was wasting my brief days serving things which are lifeless and worthless. You granted me repentance and faith in Christ and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank you for sparing me from your holy wrath against idolaters and gracing me with salvation. My salvation pro...

The Power of The Spirit of God

Today I read: 2 Kings 2, Psalm 48, Daniel 6, and 2 Thessalonians 2. Gospel Summary: Our spiritual strength is not our own, but is a result of the Holy Spirit working in us. When we trust in God's strength, we are immovable and even our greatest foes cannot destroy us. If it were not for the Holy Spirit we would have no strength against the forces of evil that come against us. Prayer: O God, you are my strength and apart from your Holy Spirit in me I would be nothing. Keep me ever pleading like Elisha for a double portion of your Spirit. Spare me today from assuming that I have this power apart from you and keep me ever dependent on the constant filling of your Holy Spirit. Show me that with your Holy Spirit in me there is nothing I face you cannot bring me through. But please teach me that apart from your Spirit I have no chance against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Keep me constant in faith, knowing that I am weak without you, you are God without m...
