Dear friends and partners:

We are very grateful for your great generosity and continued prayer support of One Hope Outreach Ministry. Your support is having an impact around the world as we continue to broadcast the message of Jesus’ love for humanity.

Singing the right song:

It has been said that singing is the music of nature. Isaiah the Old Testament prophet says, “For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” The singing and rejoicing is because God’s word has gone forth accomplishing all that He sent it to do.

The Psalmist says, “The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.” Psalms 65:13 (KJV). Nature is sounding its joy for the goodness of God.

When King David had the ark of covenant brought and placed in the Tabernacle he delivered a fitting song unto Asaph and his brethren to sing thanksgiving to the Lord. In our Bibles we read for 36 versus the words of that song. (1 Chronicles 16:1-36 KJV). 

Here I will share just a few verses;

Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people. 9 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works. 10 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. 11 Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually. 12 Remember his marvelous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth (1 Chronicles 16:8-12 (KJV).

When life seems to invade our minds; perhaps it is time to take a few moments to lift our voices to heaven and do our own singing and not leave nature to itself to do all the singing for us.

Dear friends and partners:

We appreciate your generous giving that enables us to minister the “good news” of Jesus Christ. Your continued prayers and support are like seeds planted into other lives. God’s word says, “that He delights in a cheerful giver” and our friends and partners are just that; cheerful and generous givers. Once again, thank you for your commitment to spread the gospel of Christ.

One Way:

The Holy Bible is a road map for every person that has walked, is walking or ever will walk along the road of life. There are signs all along this road to serve as direction in all circumstances and every situation for all travelers. The most important sign displayed here is the “One Way” sign because there is only one way to enter the kingdom of God. Jesus said in the gospel of John “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father except through me.” [John 14:6 NKJV]. Again, Jesus said “---unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” There are not several ways to enter God’s kingdom, there is only “One Way.”

The Christian “Holy Bible” has sixty-six books; thirty-nine in the Old Testament and twenty-seven in the New Testament. It was written over a span of about fifteen hundred years. It wasn’t fifteen hundred years of continuous writings but a collection of writings that covers that length of time. This time span included the four hundred years referred to as the silent years that occurred between Malachi of the Old Testament and Matthew of the New Testament. During the four hundred silent years there was no inspired writings that are included in the canon of scripture.

Peter, one of Jesus’ disciples said “---holy men of old spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost” [ 2Peter1:21 NKJV]. The things that holy men spoke under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost was written, preserved and collected into what is the Christian’s Holy Bible.

The Bible declares, “Forever, O Lord, your word is settled in heaven.” [ Psalms 119:89 NKJV]. And Jesus himself said “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” [ Matthew 24:35 KJV]. The entire Bible, from Genesis to Revelation points in one direction to God through His son Jesus Christ.

Entry into the kingdom of God is not merited upon regular church attendance, good works or religious affiliation. The acceptance of Jesus Christ as your Savior is the “One Way” and the only way into the kingdom of God.

What about you, have you accepted Him as your Savior? Have you accepted Him as the only way into heaven? If not, then today is the right day to make that decision.

Dear friends and partners:

Thank you so much for your faithful prayers and financial support of One Hope Outreach Ministry. Your support enables the ministry to continue reaching out to a hurting world. The ministry continues to support mission work in India and Eldoret, Kenya. We continue to broadcast preaching and teaching on various media outlets seven days a week. This includes 105.3 WSGC, Facebook, YouTube, Mewe, TikTok, GETTR, Podpoint.com/Table.Talk.Time and Now TV, as well as our new Internet radio station Chosen Radio/Airtime.Pro. The radio station is broadcasting 24 hrs. a day. Thank you for standing with us as we continue to penetrate the darkness of this world with the light of the gospel.

Are you committed?

God’s plan for His church is to be triumphant in every season and at all times. Jesus said in Matthew 16:18 (KJV) “I will build my church: and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” The church (Christianity) has always been a restraining force against evil perpetrated by the devil.

Jesus Christ is calling every Christian to stand true to the Holy scriptures and live a life consecrated to Him. The believer is to be committed to the teachings of the Bible regardless of what is happening in the world. When the disciples asked Jesus when will the end of the age come and what will be the signs.Jesus began by saying, “take heed that no man deceives you” (Matthew 24:4 KJV).

There are many voices competing for our attention. Those voices are crying out to deceive all who will believe the perpetuation of their moral wickedness. Not only do the voices vie for attention but demand no resistance to their moral depravity.

The apostle Paul, in his letter to the church at Rome describes a people that have rejected God and desired that He have not governance in their life at all. That people, according to scripture, (Romans 1:16-32 KJV), was given up to have their way in their own life. The result was depravity, moral corruption and despicable displays of wickedness, unthinkable to a reasonable and morally ground society.

Today, more than any time in our recent past, wickedness is openly displayed without the fear of God or His judgment. There are many well designed evil statements, phrases, narratives, philosophies which are aimed at leading a society away from a well-worn path of moral stability.

The church of the Lord Jesus Christ is to take heed that no man deceives her by false philosophy, or other teachings not fully supported in scripture. The acceptance of the Lordship of Jesus Christ and the clear teachings of the Bible will keep any person, society or nation on a sure footing that will endure for the long haul.

There is a clarion call for every believer to come out from among the world system and be separated unto God. To live life in the power of His Spirit and be committed to His service.

What about you? Have you committed yourself to the only Savior, Jesus Christ; to serve Him and place your trust in Him for your very existence both now and for all eternity? The believers in Jesus as Lord and Savior are the ones identified in scripture as the church, the body of Christ.

Are you born into the church through a personal relationship with Jesus? If so, there is power to overcome evil, resident in your heart, sufficiently supplied by the Holy Spirit to overcome every plot of Satan. After all, the church is the overcoming ones, because, once again, Jesus said, “----I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it”.
