Another nice hot day every where and as we worked away we came to a point that we needed a welder and so I phoned Ryan for help but was told that he was not available so I called him on his cell phone and no connection so I tried a few other avenues and to no avail. But then before we needed to look any farther there he was at the ranch and all was taken care of in miracle form. God you are so good to us and we are highly favoured and grateful to you.
Our evening was spent as we rode Louis (the name of our bike) to an incredible evening concert in the par. Not sure who the dark guy was that spoke a bit, but Taylor Nelson played and sang and she was great.
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 or scapegoat;
We can't live our life any way we want and expect God to hear us when the chips are down or blame Him for our selfish choices (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
The Battle River Ranch Camp is a one of a kind entry level trades and life skills opportunity facility. Offering an option to anyone that has been searching for an opportunity to find out their area of strength and work place career possibilities.
Our hope and prayer is to let as many of you know about the ranch as possible so that the hope it will bring and the lives it will change and the encouragement it will provide can start as soon as possible. The ranch will be a one of a kind facility and will offer an option to many like no other.
When God has a plan and like our friend Mike and Pastor Lyle wisely told us just keep your focus and don't let the distractions pull you away from God's purpose. 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 about their future or what they could be good at and to find out their possible skill area or level. We are a faith based and mentor based training facility and our hope is with the help of anyone that has a heart for helping so many to give each person that comes to the ranch an opportunity to find the skills they were created for.
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 we would be very appreciative, and would love to talk to you and would very much appreciate your help in what ever way you can. Even if you could help with a small one time donation or a larger one it would help so much to bring this life changing facility and place of hope to be opened by this fall.
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.
