Not bad for a blessed Monday we had a bit of running around to do this morning and out to the ranch to get ready for more work with the horses. They need their shots and today's the day that it's going to happen. We need to separate them and get them ready for the works. Amazing how God lookout for all of His creation even His horses. Go Figure!!!
Elisa spent the day finishing up over at the garden and what a garden we will be blessed with, if only we can control the weeds. We all pitched in to make lunch and the left over chicken smokies and burgers along with a healthy feast of fresh fried patties seemed to go over very well. Cheryl Freisen blessed us with a huge helping of home made cookies to wind our meal up so we were all very full and happy campers.
James, Larry and I got more of the roofing done as we are being blessed with a roofer to come and do our shingles next week. This evening as James and I worked late another couple dropped by and just wanted to walk around and enjoying the peaceful evening. The coyote's were very vocal this evening and sounded so cool.
The word of God is a life giving force (Ezekiel 37)
The only Reason Ezekiel was able to do what he did was because he was filled with the spirit and word of God! If we want to speak life to those around us or to our situations then we have to be filled up with and living in the word. Period! (Ez. 3:3) Remember: 'Gods word in Gods mouth is as powerful as Gods word in your mouth!' If you Eat it, you will breathe it and there will be life!
God is Not a genie:
We can't live our life any way we want and expect God to hear us when the chips are down. (Isa. 59:1-2) Judgement came on Israel because they continued to rebel against God not because God couldn't save them! Our sin is what separates us from God!
A pig is a pig:
We can dress up a pig all we like but in the end you still have the same thing, a pig! We can try to cover our sin all we want but the fact is it is still sin! We may fool those around us but we will never fool God! If you are wanting Freedom you have to deal with the pigs in your life! If not they will drag you back to the pig pen!
Submit to God's Authority:
If you do not submit to authority you will never gain authority!
Only by submitting to Gods authority will you have the authority to speak life into your situation or someones else's!
The Word of God is a Probing instrument: (Heb. 4:12)
Before an operation we have to sign a consent form to allow the doctor to cut us open. We know operations are painful but without them we will likely die! So sign the consent form! Submit to God and allow Him through His word to operate on you and cut out what has been killing you. It's only by cutting, probing, exposing and removing that we can ever expect to get well and live a life of FREEDOM!
God bless you and thanks for being apart of what God is doing here at The Battle River Ranch Camp
Thank you once again for taking the time to view our blog.The Battle River Ranch Camp is a non profit organization that is focused on developing trades, life skills and training opportunities for men and women that are searching and find it difficult to get the opportunities needed to develop a productive life skill. Many men and women today have no idea what they could be good at or how to find out their possible skill area or level. We are a faith based training center.
Harold and Diane Stephan left a life filled with addictions and bad choices. Their journey has taken them through different twelve step programs and life recovery through a relationship and healing process with Jesus Christ. If it were not for caring people in their lives that never gave up on them or thought they were a hopeless cause they too would still be lost.
We would love to hear from you and if you feel this is a program and facility that would help you or someone that you know, or you would like to be more involved with a ministry like this or support it financially we would love to talk to you and would very much appreciate your help in what ever way you can.
This is a ministry for those that have a heart and desire to make a difference in the lives of others with the skills and gifts they have been blessed with and have a desire to pass on what they know to the next generation.
You are always welcome to visit and we look forward to your input. This ministry is prayer based, and we pray daily for the needs of others, if you have a need for prayer and not sure where to start give us a call and we will confidentially support and help you in this area. You may not know a lot about God but God knows everything about you and He loves you more than anyone can or ever will.
