Can You Hear God's Voice? Gary Whetstone Says Yes!



This week Gary Whetstone was featured on Sid Roth. They discussed the process of hearing God's voice.
This is the second time I have watched Gary on his show. Gary has a miraculous background. He was saved from having a lobotomy which would have rendered him incapacitated for the rest of his life. He was rescued and escaped from a terrible situation in which he was placed on his path to do God's work. He also accounts hearing God's voice after divorcing his first wife. He was guided to return back to his marriage and make amends. His marriage still goes on strong today.

While he was taping an announcement about his tour to Israel, he had a vision where he saw history flash before him and he saw many people he knew, some he knew closely. And he saw they were hearing God's voice but not obeying. He was told that if the people he saw in  his vision did not change what actions and course they were taking in life, if they didn's listen to what God was sying to them, what they built up would be burned. In addition, Gary was told that he was not hearing God's voice and he had to make some drastic chnages in his life of his communication with God would be outed like a light on a candle. If you watch this part on the video, he shows to interesting examples on how you could think you are doing what is right and then you find out that you must make a change.

Gary brought up many interesting points during his interview. He discussed something I have experienced.
In a prayer meeting, you hear someone who has received a divine word of knowledge through prayer. Then someone else interrupts and tries to interpret or complete the meaning. Gary discusses that we may hear the beginning of what God is trying to tell us, but, most often we end up doing the wrong thing because we complete the thought by replacing it with our own thoughts. We need to let God finish speaking.

He also states that when we pray, God does not answer worry. Cast your fears and worries aside and rest in his hands. Gary's news series teaches how to hear his voice. See the video interview with Sid:





I wish this author was available on Amazon Kindle because I would really love to read this as an e-book.

Author Sam Jane Brown's Debut Novel "Forgotten Word" Sparks Thought-Provoking Conversations Among Readers



UK-based author Sam Jane Brown's new novel has proven itself as a thought provoking piece that's gaining a steady following, particularly among fans of authors such as Dan Brown.

"I was inspired to write this book thanks to my own spiritual journey during a year-long bible study experience. I didn't really realize that Forgotten Word would be as thought provoking as it's become, but I think that's really wonderful! It's delightful to think that my writing could inspire engaging conversations that could potentially enlighten and inform others. I think there are few things that are more rewarding for an author!" Sam Jane Brown explained of her debut novel. Notably, Brown is in the midst of penning her sophomore novel, which will carry on the storyline that unfolds in Forgotten Word.

Forgotten Word, which has been compared to Dan Brown's iconic book, The Davinci Code, delivers a blend of mystery, suspense and action as it traces the experiences of the main character Zena McGrath. The international police detective is flown to the Vatican to investigate the latest in a series of mysterious and sudden deaths involving Catholic priests, but she gets much more than she bargained for when she uncovers the shocking role of evil.

Zena McGrath is shocked to learn that evil is very real – and it's following her. She's dispatched to New York City to investigate yet another clergyman's sudden death when she uncovers an underground society of satanic worshipers and power evil entities. What's worse, it seems that these dark forces are emerging from the underworld and into the light of mainstream society. It's also emerged in Zena's life – it's following her.

What ensues is a worldwide movement; an uprising that has millions calling for an end to organized religion in an attempt to squash out the pervasive evil that won't back down. It's a call for a new world order, a revolution in human society.

"I find the concept of a new world order very intriguing. It really makes you realize how prominent religion is in our everyday life, even if you're not an overly religious person. Religion impacts us in a very profound way. It's molded societies; nations have risen and fallen due to religion; it has the power to unite and it has the power to divide. Some are literally willing to die for what they believe in. Religion is a very powerful thing and it's really interesting to consider how the world would change if it was eradicated in an attempt to quell a powerful evil entity," Brown explained. She added, "Could religion really be eliminated? It's so deeply engrained in modern society -- it's in our holidays, our calendar, our laws, our language, even our maps. What would a religion-free world look like? It's a curious thing to consider, indeed."

As a worldwide revolution unfolds, Zena seeks answers in the Holy Land. It's a journey that leads to some important revelations and discoveries that prove to be game-changers. The critically acclaimed novelForgotten Word has been lauded for its ability to keep readers enthralled, right up until they reach the very last page.

Forgotten Word is available for purchase on Amazon.com in paperback for $12.38. It's also available in digital e-book for Kindle at a price of $3.50.

FRC to Join Capitol Hill News Conference Urging Restoration of Religious Freedom in the Military, to Release New Report on Religious Hostility




On Tuesday, July 9, 2013, Family Research Council (FRC), a coalition of groups concerned about religious liberty, and Members of Congress, will participate in a Capitol Hill news conference urging support for Rep. John Fleming's (R-LA) military religious freedom amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act.   The amendment protects the right of service members to not only hold religious beliefs but to act on them and speak about them. The House Armed Services Committee adopted the amendment last month to address growing religious hostility within the military. Rep. Fleming's amendment has found bipartisan support in the House, but the Obama administration issued a statement expressing strong opposition to the amendment. A similar amendment by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) passed the Senate Armed Services Committee with broad bipartisan support.

FRC will release a new report at the press conference documenting incidents of hostility toward religious expression in the military.

In April, religious liberty concerns were heightened after anti-Christian activist Mikey Weinstein met with senior Air Force officials at the Pentagon and pressed for the court-martial of Christian service members who share their faith. More than 170,000 Americans signed petitions calling on Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel to protect the religious liberties of military personnel through policies that guarantee those liberties. Concerns among the American public increased following a Rear Admiral's speech at a National Day of Prayer event in which he recounted a story of his decision to violate military rules preventing him from giving a Bible to a soldier who had attempted suicide.

Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Jerry Boykin executive vice president of FRC, outlined the purpose of the news conference:

"We will stand with servicemembers who wish to exercise their First amendment rights of religious liberty.  We will encourage legislation to protect the religious liberty of military members, and we will do all we can to inform the American public about the attacks on religious liberty in the military. We must do all we can to ensure that our servicemembers have the right to practice the very freedoms that they risk their lives to defend."

WHO:
Tony Perkins, president, Family Research Council
Rep. John Fleming (R-LA)
Rep. Jim Bridenstine (R-OK)
Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX)
Ron Crews, Ch. (Col.) USAR (Ret.), executive director, Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty
Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Jerry Boykin, executive vice president, Family Research Council
WHAT: News Conference on Military Religious Freedom Amendment; release of new report on religious hostility in the military

WHERE: The House Triangle

WHEN: 11:30 a.m. Eastern, Tuesday, July 9, 2013

Coalition members supporting this effort include: 

Tim Wildmon, president, American Family Association
Frank Gaffney, president, Center for Security Policy
Tom Fitton, president, Judicial Watch
Mat Staver, founder and chairman, Liberty Counsel
Gary L. Bauer, president, American Values
Tommy Sears, executive director, Center for Military Readiness

A ‘miracle’ so many survived airline crash



Passengers jumped down emergency slides, escaping the smoke. One walked through a hole where a rear bathroom had been.

Amid the chaos, some urged fellow passengers to keep calm, even as flames tore through the Boeing 777’s fuselage.

As investigators try to determine what caused the crash of Flight 214 that killed two passengers yesterday at San Francisco International Airport, the accident left many wondering how nearly all 307 people aboard were able to make it out alive.

The Boeing 777 slammed into the runway, breaking off its tail and catching fire before slumping to a stop that allowed the lucky ones to flee down emergency slides into thick smoke and a trail of debris. 

Two Chinese teenage girls found outside wreckage were confirmed dead and 182 transported to area hospitals. But as harrowing as the crash was, survivors and witnesses were just as stunned to learn that the toll of deaths and serious injuries wasn’t much higher. 

“When you heard that explosion, that loud boom and you saw the black smoke . . . you just thought, my God, everybody in there is gone,” said Ki Siadatan, who lives a few miles away from San Francisco International Airport and watched the plane’s “wobbly” and “a little bit out of control” approach from his balcony. 

Vedpal Singh, who was sitting in the middle of the aircraft and survived the crash with his family, said there was no forewarning from the pilot or any crew members before the plane touched down hard and he heard a loud sound. 

“We knew something was horrible, wrong,” said Singh, who suffered a fractured collarbone and had his arm in a sling. “It’s miraculous we survived.” 

A visibly shaken Singh said the plane went silent before people tried to get out anyway they could. His 15-year-old son said luggage tumbled from the overhead bins. The entire incident lasted about 10 seconds. 

Another passenger, Benjamin Levy, 39, said it looked to him that the plane was flying too low and too close to the bay as it approached the runway. Levy, who was sitting in an emergency exit row, said he felt the pilot try to lift the jet up before it crashed, and thinks that might have saved lives. 

“Everybody was screaming. I was trying to usher them out,” he recalled of the first seconds after the landing. “I said, ‘Stay calm, stop screaming, help each other out, don’t push’.” 

San Francisco Fire Department Chief Joanne Hayes-White said the two who died were found on “the exterior” of the plane. “Having surveyed that area, we’re lucky that there hasn’t been a greater loss.” 

Airport spokesman Doug Yakel said 49 people were critically injured and 132 had less significant injuries. 

The flight originated in Shanghai, China, and stopped over in Seoul, South Korea, before coming to San Francisco, airport officials said. The airline said there were 16 crew members aboard and 291 passengers. South Korea’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said that the plane’s passengers included 141 Chinese, 77 South Koreans, 61 Americans, three Canadians, three from India, one Japanese, one Vietnamese and one from France, while the nationalities of the remaining three haven’t been confirmed. Thirty of the passengers were children. 

Chinese state media identified the dead as two 16-year-old girls who were middle school students in China’s eastern Zhejiang province. China Central Television cited a fax from Asiana Airlines to the Jiangshan city government. They were identified as Ye Mengyuan and Wang Linjia. 

At least 70 students and teachers were on the plane heading to summer camps, according to education authorities in China. 

Asiana president Yoon Young-doo said it will take time to determine the cause of the crash. But when asked about the possibility of engine or mechanical problems, he said he doesn’t believe they could have been the cause. He said the plane was bought in 2006 but didn’t provide further details or elaborate. Asiana officials later said the plane was also built that year. 

Yoon also bowed and offered an apology. “I am bowing my head and extending my deep apology” to the passengers, their families and the South Korean people over the crash, he said. 

South Korean president Park Geun-hye offered her condolences to the families of passengers and said her government would make all necessary efforts to help handle the aftermath. 

Based on witness accounts in the news and video of the wreckage, Mike Barr, a former military pilot and accident investigator who teaches aviation safety at the University of Southern California, said it appeared the plane approached the runway too low and something may have caught the runway lip — the seawall at the end of the runway. 

San Francisco is one of several airports around the country that border bodies of water that have walls at the end of their runways to prevent planes that overrun a runway from ending up in the water. Since the plane was about to land, its landing gear would have already been down, Barr said. It’s possible the landing gear or the tail of the plane hit the seawall, he said. If that happened, it would effectively slam the plane into the runway, he said. 

Noting that some witnesses reported hearing the plane’s engines rev up just before the crash, Barr said that would be consistent with a pilot who realised at the last minute that the plane was too low and was increasing power to the engines to try to increase altitude. 

Four pilots were aboard the plane and they rotated on a two-person shift during the flight.

Force Ministries' New Video Series, After God's Own Heart, Available Right Now on Amazon and Create Space to Support Christian Men & Women in Both Military Service & Law Enforcement!



Christ Centered Duty and Biblical answers to tough concerns for men and women in arms are addressed by exceptional male and female experts who thoroughly present on subjects such as taking life in battle, victoriously handling the realities of a deployed spouse, living as an influential leader who puts others first, finding healing from post-traumatic stress disorder, coping with the reality of death on the battlefield, and much more. 

Furthermore, these instructors bring to the table street credibility to back it up as the overwhelming majority of them have either served as active duty military members or know personally the difficult realities of being a military spouse in Force Ministries' new video project curriculum, After God's Own Heart. 

The series was developed to minister to the spiritual, mental, and emotional needs of both military and law enforcement men and women who confront death in the line of duty – be it their own, someone they must protect, or a dangerous adversary's.

Bonus testimonies of experiencing God's grace in difficult situations are included from men and women that include a former Israel Defense Forces' operator who served in battles in the Middle East; a former U.S. Marine Officer who served on the battlefields of Vietnam who later went on to minister to senior Russian military officials with the Navigators Military Mission from 1995-2005; and the wives of senior enlisted U.S. Marines who have deployed multiple times and served on the recruiting and the drill field respectively.

"This kind of spiritual support is nearly unheard of – yet profoundly needed – which is why the specialized efforts of Force Ministries merits much support. Helping families cope with the extreme stress of loved ones being deployed to combat and working in law enforcement, while facing their mortality on a daily basis, is a tremendous undertaking." – Fernando Chavez, Founder/CEO, FaithLauncher

"Our near term objectives for 2013 are to promote the video series in the U.S. and international military and law enforcement communities," announced Chris Reardon, the Creative Director of the After God's Own Heart Project. Learn more about the project on FaithLauncher.com. Videos and promotional trailers can be found at http://www.forceministries.com/estore.php.

Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Offering Hope To Thousands Of Hispanics Through PazConDios.net



 According to 2010 census data, nearly 37 million people in the United States speak Spanish as their first language. Further, Spanish is recognized as the third most common language among Internet users worldwide. With this in mind, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) has expanded its online evangelism ministry by launching PazConDios.net, a Spanish-language site that shares the love and hope of Jesus.

Over the past year, an average of more than 2,500 people every day have visited the site, with 600,000 viewing a Gospel presentation about hope in Jesus, and 78,000 registering that they prayed to make a commitment to Christ. PazConDios.net was first launched in June 2012.

"It has been this organization's mission for more than 60 years to reach people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ," said John Cass, BGEA's Director for Internet Evangelism. "For decades, Billy Graham would fill entire stadiums with an audience seeking to hear his message. Today, we have the ability to not only reach an arena, but reach around the world. As we continue to develop our online evangelism and expand the languages in which we minister, cyberspace has become the largest arena yet."

The ministry uses a unique combination of Google ads and compelling video presentations to invite visitors into the site. When a question such as "¿Existe un Dios?" or "¿Hay esperanza?" is entered into Google, the searcher is pointed to landing pages and then given the opportunity to click into PazConDios.net. There, they will be able to view the Gospel message and testimonies of what God has done in the lives of real people. "When someone clicks through to PazConDios.net, they are shown that, yes, there is a God, and, yes, He does love them dearly," said Cass.

After viewing the content of the site, the visitor is given the opportunity to register a commitment to Jesus and is provided with follow-up materials to help develop their new-found faith. The BGEA is also currently laying the groundwork for a network of trained and vetted volunteers who can answer spiritual questions and offer encouragement via chat. Spanish-speaking Christians who are interested in volunteering are encouraged to contact BGEA by visiting EnbuscadeJesus.net or e-mailing EnbuscadeJesus@bgea.org.

BGEA's English-language version of PazConDios.netPeaceWithGod.net, was launched in 2011, and has seen more than 2.6 million visitors register a decision for Christ.

Those interested in viewing the videos and Gospel presentation may visit PazConDios.net. Those interested in more information on this new ministry from the BGEA, including an up-to-the-minute map of real-time decisions being made around the world, may visit EnbuscadeJesus.net.
