Am I Lost or Saved? - New Wordless Book Gospel Tract Video to Share

Image
(Click the picture for the video) This week I was looking at a "wordless book" that one of my children have, and the Lord impressed upon my heart to make a video out of it, for people to share online on social media. Since many of the Rise & Shine videos on the YouTube channel as of late have been on a soul winning series, this was so appropriate right now! And to take a moment to praise the Lord, the Rise & Shine for Jesus channel now has 100 people on it around the world that want to hear God's Word! \0/  That was such an amazing blessing to me, to not only have another avenue to continue my mom's work for the Lord, but to also minister to saints and sinners everywhere, and starting that channel from 0 and now to be at 100 - incredible and all glory to God!  (click picture for soulwinning audio series)  Online tracts are great for those of you with family and friends all over the world that you may not be able to see in person very much, yet

Reveal Your Zeal

Rise and Shine for Jesus! \O/ By Pam Iannello (my late mother) "Reveal Your Zeal" Zeal is passionate ardor in the pursuit of anything. As a Christian, how do you reveal your zeal for God? As a church body, how do we reveal our zeal for God? How do we prove to a lost and dying world what the source of power in our life really is? Why should people listen to what you have to say as a child of God, why should they visit your church?? As believers, this world challenges our spiritual passion. It demands a sign of Christians and the world has a right to test any new body of believers who appears on the scene. Yes, the world demands evidence of our zeal for God before they will ever listen to what we have to say. In light of this fact, what sign does GOD say we ought to give as proof that we are passionate in our pursuit of a proper relationship with Him? Turn with me to John 2:12-22, and let's see if we can't uncover the answers with the help and d

Requirements of Restoration

RISE AND SHINE FOR JESUS! By Pam Iannello (my late mother) "Requirements of Restoration" 2 Chron. 7:14 (KJV) If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Effectual prayer requires a right relationship with God. There is no way you can read this portion of scripture and its adjoining verses and not become conscious of that fact! The way we live does have an impact upon whether or not our prayers are answered. Are you certain of your salvation? Have you gained God’s ear by way of your humility? How often does pride interfere with your prayer life? Are you in the habit of seeking God’s face or avoiding Him? Are you serious about confessing and forsaking your sin - permanently ? Are you positioned for God’s restorative involvement in your life? H

Remember Not To Forget

A visit with my Aunt Judy RISE AND SHINE FOR JESUS! \O/ By Pam Iannello (my late mother) "Remember Not To Forget" Proverbs 3:1 (KJV) My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: The older I get the more absentminded it seems I become! Perhaps some of you have entered that season of life as well… Mental management of the little details of daily life can be an exasperating juggling act and it seems there is great pressure upon most of us not to forget, no matter how old we are. That is why this precise exhortation is found in the Bible – we all have a tendency to forget ! Therefore, anything we can do to help us remember a thing, especially scriptural things , is of great value. To be honest, I always thought that forgetfulness was a state of mind . But what I learned from the Word of God is that absentmindedness is actually a heart condition! According to our text above, the negative side is do not forget – the posit
