Grace and Goodness of God | River of Hope Ministries
http://riverofhopeministries.org/wordpress/grace-and-goodness-of-god
Grace and Goodness of God. The first verse in the Bible that I memorized after becoming a Christian was 2 Corinthians 5:17,. Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. I was not only saved from eternal damnation, I was a new creation! I had been Born-Again! If you’ve accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior you too are a totally new creation through the creative act of God! The ministry of reconciliation. For He made Him w...

Come Out of Your Stronghold! | River of Hope Ministries
http://riverofhopeministries.org/wordpress/come-out-of-your-stronghold
Come Out of Your Stronghold! Is the common term for property or any possession that comes to an heir. It is something that is or may be inherited; property passing at the owner’s death to the heir or those entitled to succeed; legacy; portion; birthright; heritage. Sometimes we think that we have to stay; we have no choice to leave and go somewhere else. We think that we are who we are because of our heritage; words spoken over us, habits, bondages, past sins, views of ourselves. 1 Samuel 22:5a in the Bi...

Game Film Day in the Life of a Believer. It is during that time that an athlete must remind him or herself that the purpose is to learn from the mistakes and stop, and go another direction in the next game; for their good as well as the rest of the team. Here on earth the Holy Spirit comes to each of us to show us game films when we sin. His goal is to show us our sin so that we can learn from the mistakes and stop, and go another direction in the next game . John 16:13 tells us. 8220;No temptation has o...

Christmas At Denny’s | River of Hope Ministries
http://riverofhopeministries.org/wordpress/christmas-at-dennys
Christmas At Denny’s. Want to hear a sad fact? We ask the question; WWJD? Personally, I think that Jesus would go to Denny’s over some high faluting party. Jesus spent time with the down and outer; the prostitutes, the social outcasts; the ones who had something bad happen to them and made wrong choices. I never come to Christmas without thinking about the thousands of people who are lonely, diseased, and troubled at this time of year. Jesus came on that night that we call Christmas to be born, to live, ...

“Come Meet My Dad”- By Rev. Tom Oestreich | River of Hope Ministries
http://riverofhopeministries.org/wordpress/come-meet-my-dad
8220;Come Meet My Dad”- By Rev. Tom Oestreich. I have a friend who goes through the same ritual each time he visits his dad. First he bounces up the front steps and says “Dad; I’m home! How is your wife? How are the kids? How are things going at your church? How can I pray for you? What do you need? My friend truly believes that this is how God the Father wants us to come to Him; like children into the arms of a Father who wants to feed us and love on us! In Hebrews 4:16 we read;. Say that to yourself ri...

How to Get Right With God | River of Hope Ministries
http://riverofhopeministries.org/wordpress/how-to-get-right-with-god
How to Get Right With God. First of all, in spite of what you’ve heard God loves you and offers a wonderful plan for your life. In the Bible we read;. 8220;God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him”(John3:16-17 NIV). Simply put, it is because people are sinful;. They don’t live as God wants them to live. In other words,.

GOD HAS A BIG BUT | River of Hope Ministries
http://riverofhopeministries.org/wordpress/god-has-a-big-but
GOD HAS A BIG BUT. Throughout the Bible there is story after story of people facing insurmountable circumstances for which there appeared to be no way out and no possible way for a victory. And yet, if you read the end of each one of the stories, God gives victory to those who walk in His ways. Simply put the phrase is But God. You can also read interruptions to the stories in the Bible that goes something like; nevertheless God , and however God , and moreover God . Said, No, but Sarah your wife will be...
