Seekers on the Bay

Welcome to the launch of Powers Ministries Cyber Church - "Seekers on the Bay".

This page has been created for those who, for whatever reason, have not found a place for spiritual renewal, a place of reflection, a safe harbor of contemplation or anchor of hope.

Each week will be posted a Powerfilled Pontification of Platitudes from various authors, speakers, and members of the clergy, that I am hopeful will provide those of you who choose to "Seek" a place to ponder your relationship with God.

It has been my passion of late to seek a way in which I may be of extended service to the Lord , this quest has led to "Seekers on the Bay" and a Cyber church.I certainly welcome any requests, comments or prayer requests via e-mail.

Thank you for this opportunity to be of service to you , may the Lord bless you, Real, Real Good!

RECALL NOTICE:

The Maker of all human beings is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart. This is due to a malfunction in the original prototype units code named Adam and Eve, resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units. This defect has been technically termed, "Subsequential Internal Non-morality," or more commonly known as S. I. N., as it is primarily expressed.

Some other symptoms:
1. Loss of direction
2. Foul vocal emissions
3. Amnesia of origin
4. Lack of peace and joy
5. Selfish, or violent behavior
6. Depression or confusion in the mental component
7. Fearfulness
8. Idolatry
9. Rebellion

The Manufacturer, who is neither liable nor at fault for this defect, is providing factory authorized repair and service free of charge to correct this SIN defect.

The Repair Technician, Jesus, has most generously offered to bear the entire burden of the staggering cost of these repairs. There is no additional fee required. The number to call for repair in all areas is: P-R-A-Y-E-R. Once connected, please upload your burden of SIN through the REPENTANCE procedure.

Next, download ATONEMENT from the Repair Technician, Jesus, into the heart component.

No matter how big or small the SIN defect is, Jesus will replace it with:
1. Love
2. Joy
3. Peace
4. Patience
5. Kindness
6. Goodness
7. Faithfulness
8. Gentleness
9. Self control

Please see the operating manual: the B.I.B.L.E. (Believers Instructions Before Leaving Earth), for further details on the use of these fixes.

WARNING: Continuing to operate the human being unit without correction voids any manufacturer warranties, exposing the unit to dangers and problems too numerous to list and will result in the human unit being permanently impounded. For free emergency service, call on JESUS.

DANGER: The human being units not responding to this recall action will have to be scrapped in the furnace. The SIN defect will not be permitted to enter Heaven so as to prevent contamination of that facility.

Thank you for your attention!
GOD

Please assist where possible by notifying others of this important recall notice

The Ten Commandments of
How to Get Along with People

This from Ann Landers that I saved for years and now want to share with you all !!

1. Keep skid chains on your tongue. Always say less than you think.Cultivate a low, persuasive voice. How you say it often counts more than what you say.

2. Make promises sparingly and keep them faithfully, no matter what the cost.

3. Never let an opportunity pass to say a kind word to or about somebody. Praise good work, regardless of who did it.

4. Be interested in others:their pursuits, their work, their homes, their families. Make merry with those who rejoice; with those who weep, mourn. Let everyone you meet , however humble, feel that you regard him as a person of importance.

5.Be cheerful. Don't burden or depress those around you by dwelling on your aches and pains and small disappointments. Remember, everyone is carrying some kind of burden.

6. Keep an open mind. Discuss but don't argue. It is a mark of a superior mind to be able to disagree without being disagreeable.

7.Let your virtues, if you have any, speak for themselves. Refuse to talk about the vices of others. Discourage gossip. It is a waste of valuable time and can be destructive and hurtful.

8. Take into consideration the feelings of others. Wit and humor at the expense of another is never worth the pain that may be inflicted.

9. Pay no attention to ill-natured remarks about you. Remember, the person who carried the message may not be the most accurate reporter in the world. Simply live so that nobody will believe him. Disordered nerves and bad digestion are a common cause of back-biting.

10. Don't be anxious about the credit due you. Do your best and be patient. Forget about yourself and let others "remember". Success is much sweeter that way.

Freezing Fear of Feeble Faith?

Two closely related enemies meet us at the threshold of passionate living; freezing fear and feeble faith. People of passion respond by being alert to life's opportunities and trusting God as they walk through life's thresholds with boldness. These doors can appear in any area of our daily life. They may take the form of opportunities for advancement at work, developing new skills, continuing education, or meeting new people. They may come as opportunities for greater levels of ministry or a deeper personal commitment to your spiritual growth. Or they may appear as opportunities for family growth, increased obedience in financial stewardship, or setting new priorities for family finances.

Be always mindful and watch for newly opening doors. God's work is accomplished in this world through them. Don't allow feeble faith to leave you standing at the doorstep. Be a person of passion who not only sees God's opportunities but charges through them with faith in His provision.

An Interdenominational faith centered Bible based ministry
dedicated to the celebration of LIFE.
