Wig’s Word of God Today 2-1-2011
Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the leader and perfecter of faith. Hebrews 12:1-2a
Jesus said to the synagogue official, “Do not be afraid; just have faith.” Mark 5:36b
Hebrews 12:1-4, Psalm 22:26b-27, 28 and 30, 31-32 & Mark 5:21-43
We have been given a Leader Who perfected the faith by sharing His Blood of a New Covenant love with all Humanity. We are reminded today that we are a vast number of people described as a “cloud of witnesses” that should “rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus.” Amen! Today we are up against an onslaught of Satan’s evil spirits on every corner in the world. So many people are continuing to live for their own selfish pleasures instead of seeking the Way and the Truth to accomplish faith, hope, charity and love. Today I am thanking God for allowing me to meet a woman who created the website called “Keep God in America” for the purpose of reintroducing America to our Creator Who authored the Constitution through Divine Guidance of our Founding Fathers. It is with much pleasure and humble servitude that I have accepted an opportunity to write about the most important topic in the United States today; Keeping God in America.
I am reminded today as I study Hebrews that the “great cloud of witnesses” needs to come together for the Glory of God being thankful for His Word which guided our Founding Fathers to create the first Free Nation in the world. Our Free Nation must remember the words of Psalm 115:3, ” “Our God is in heaven; whatever God wills is done.” He Willed the creation of our country to have a land where we can be free to worship and praise our LORD. James Madison once wrote, “”Whilst we assert for ourselves a freedom to embrace, to profess, and to observe the religion which we believe to be of divine origin, we cannot deny an equal freedom to those whose minds have not yet yielded to the evidence which has convinced us. If this freedom be abused, it is an offence against God, not against man: To God therefore, not to men, must an account of it be rendered.” To God is the Glory for ever and ever. Amen. You can learn more about their site at www.KeepGodinAmerica.com and will see my writing there soon.
I think of a man daily as I write because of a DVD of Hillsong Live he lent us called “Faith + Hope + Love” which had a sticker I placed on my desk above my keyboard. This man is Chris Santello and we have been praying for his healing for the last year and a half. Today is his memorial and I will always remember the last time we saw him at his home where we prayed with him often and read Scripture to him because my wife and I laid hands on him praying over him as the song “I will exalt You” from Hillsong played. All three of us called out to the LORD together as tears streamed down our faces being thankful to Worship the One and Only True God. Chris was a peaceful soul fervent in the LORD and his love of God impacted our lives. I am singing the song now, “Because You are with me, I will not fail. My hiding place, my safe refuge. My treasured LORD You are. My Prince and King, Anointed One. Most Holy.” Rest in peace as Christ cradles you my friend Chris Santello. “I will Exalt You, you are my God Sing Hallelujah for the King has carried the Cross and Risen from the grave.”
So we ask in prayer: My LORD and My God, today we pray Chris Santello enjoys the joys of heaven’s songs LORD. We pray we come together as a cloud of people to give You all the Glory for everything we have. Rid us of self LORD to only worship Your Son’s Truth. We ask this through Christ our LORD Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, One God forever and ever. Amen.
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
Truth Healed by the Lamb
It is Your love LORD
Bringing peace to Humanity
Cloud of burden lifted
Christ’s love of joy to see
He endured the Cross
Blood for me and for you
Grow weary not
His Truth presided its due
A daughter of death
Rose by His hands
Someone touched His cloak
Truth healed by the Lamb
