HOW TO CATCH MANY FISH

Written by Irvin L. Rozier


Continued from page 1

The ancient man and woman were watchingrepparttar entire battle. When it was over,repparttar 126450 man spoke and said, "Okay, you can go on behindrepparttar 126451 house now." I went behindrepparttar 126452 house, and O my what a sight! The clearest, bluest water (even better than Hawaii where I lived for three years) I had ever laid my eyes on. The beach was covered with clean white sand and there waiting for me was a top ofrepparttar 126453 line fishing boat. As I drove off slowly in that boat, big, beautiful fish started jumping inrepparttar 126454 boat until it was about to sink! I then woke from my sleep and askedrepparttar 126455 LORDrepparttar 126456 meaning of this dream.

The LORD responded to me and said, "The road isrepparttar 126457 straight and narrow path that leadeth to life. Few find it. The stagnant ponds and fishermen representrepparttar 126458 churches of today. They are content with their own little place and don't want to venture out torepparttar 126459 unknown. The old fish inrepparttar 126460 well represents Satan who you will have to wrestle with if you want to catch much fish. The lake full of fish representsrepparttar 126461 world. The harvest is ripe butrepparttar 126462 laborers are few. Because you fought with and prevailed over Satan, you will be one of my expert fishermen and I will providerepparttar 126463 way and openrepparttar 126464 doors."

Asrepparttar 126465 LORD spoke these words of wisdom and encouragement to me, I was greatly encouraged and strengthened forrepparttar 126466 work He had appointed me to do.

Luke 5, verses 6,7 "And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. And they beckoned unto their partners, which were inrepparttar 126467 other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled bothrepparttar 126468 ships, so that they began to sink."

I had this dream in late 1987. Since that time,repparttar 126469 LORD has used me greatly to "catch much fish". I have had many battles withrepparttar 126470 enemy, yetrepparttar 126471 LORD has always strengthened me and provided what I needed.

Fellowship Forever

Written by Paul Griffitts


Continued from page 1

There is alsorepparttar fellowship of suffering, of Spirit, ofrepparttar 126449 Mystery, of ministering and of His Son. We are told that these arerepparttar 126450 kind of ways that we as Christians should have fellowship. In all ofrepparttar 126451 verses that use this word koinonia repparttar 126452 Word renders fellowship as a noun. There is also a verb form of koinonia, sugkoinonia which is a command not to have fellowship with devils. We will stick torepparttar 126453 noun and see how God wants us to fellowship.

In Ephesians we find inrepparttar 126454 third chapter and ninth verse repparttar 126455 word fellowship used and bringing this word torepparttar 126456 apex of its meaning inrepparttar 126457 Bible.

Eph, 3:9 And to make all [men] see what [is]repparttar 126458 fellowship ofrepparttar 126459 mystery, which fromrepparttar 126460 beginning ofrepparttar 126461 world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

This fellowship ofrepparttar 126462 Mystery that which was hid in Godrepparttar 126463 sharing,repparttar 126464 partaking,repparttar 126465 partnership,repparttar 126466 intimacy and of courserepparttar 126467 fellowship we have with God is that werepparttar 126468 Gentiles are fellow-heirs ofrepparttar 126469 promise we are partakers of repparttar 126470 promise we share fully in that which God has ordained forrepparttar 126471 Mystery believers sincerepparttar 126472 beginning ofrepparttar 126473 world.

We should look at one more use of fellowship and that isrepparttar 126474 fellowship of ministering torepparttar 126475 saints. We as Mystery Believers are encouraged to minister torepparttar 126476 believers with repparttar 126477 good deeds we can do by contributing (another use ofrepparttar 126478 word koinonia) torepparttar 126479 necessity ofrepparttar 126480 body of Christ by distribution (koinonia) by making known what isrepparttar 126481 richness ofrepparttar 126482 Mystery.

Fellowship is a wonderful word used inrepparttar 126483 Epistles, it has significant meaning and I encourage you to do your own work on this great Biblical word. Each and every word inrepparttar 126484 Bible has many uses and usages which makerepparttar 126485 Biblerepparttar 126486 most intriguing book to study. God Bless your wonderful hearts in Christ Jesus our Lord.
