From the rising of the sun to its setting let the Name of the LORD be praised. Psalm 113:3

Wig’s Word of God Today 5-27-2011

Who have dedicated their lives to the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Acts:15:26

No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. John 15:13

Acts 15:22-31, Psalm 57 & John 15:12-17

The decision to embrace the Gentiles without scolding them for not completing the ritual of circumcision is delivered to Antioch by Paul and Barnabas and another named Silas to state: “It is the decision of the Holy Spirit and of us not to place on you any burden beyond these necessities; namely, to abstain from meat sacrificed to idols, from blood, from meats of strangled animals, and from unlawful marriage. If you keep free of these, you will be doing what is right. Farewell.” Acts 15:28-29

How important it is for us even 2000 years later to know the Apostles worked out differences between those who loved God and accepted Christ Jesus as their personal LORD and Savior. IN today’s world we see such a need to iron out the pains of choices as the world grows to unprecedented numbers of the human race. Without the ability for us to conquer our differences, we are in store for such havoc and turmoil that there is only One Real Way to solve them: Jesus.

This message rings clear in Christ’s Proclamation in John 15: “This is My commandment: love one another as I love you.” John 15:12 If we can’t instill this message of love in our brothers and sisters of humanity, we are surely going to face the Evil One’s desires of absolute chaos, disorder and confusion that our world as we know it will crumble into ruins and God’s chosen few will be swept into heaven by the power of His Almighty Hand. Christ Himself concluded we are no longer slaves to this hate, disarray and turmoil in our lives by embracing His Truth to live in harmony with friend and foe alike.

There is no way our world will survive without stopping the silence to circumvent the madness by our dedication and surrender to His love and Redemption. Jesus said, “No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” John 15:13 Christ’s death on the Cross was the friendship He garnished for the world and accepted as the Will of God for the Forgiveness of Sins. The excess of life will catch up to us soon if we don’t as a Humanity stand up for what is good in God’s Word by living your love of loving Christ Jesus and share His Redemption with the world. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: Heavenly King and Almighty Father, we pray today for Your protection of myself and several others in our community as we go to Miami Beach and help the police department as Your “God Squad” representatives to help conduct crowd control and liaison with Memorial Weekend beachgoers from 6 PM to 3 AM Friday and Saturday night. Our T-shirts will proclaim Your Truth titled; “God Squad of Miami Beach Police.” Be our Light in the darkness. Be our wisdom in times of need. We ask this in Jesus Name, Amen.

God Bless His Truth,

Wig’s Word of God Today 5-25-2011

If you remain in Me and My Words remain in you, ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you. John 15:7

Acts 15:1-6, Psalm 122 & John 15:1-8

Paul recognized the authority of the Church and went to Jerusalem with Barnabas and some others to seek help answering the question: “Unless you are circumcised according to the Mosaic practice, you cannot be saved.” Acts 15:1b Many had still rejected the Gentiles as unclean if they did not follow the prescription of the Mosaic Law of circumcision. Paul himself felt that since the Holy Spirit descended on the Gentiles also as in Acts 10:44-47, there should not be an imposed the rule on the Gentiles. “While Peter was still speaking these things, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who were listening to the word. The circumcised believers who had accompanied Peter were astounded that the gift of the Holy Spirit should have been poured out on the Gentiles also, for they could hear them speaking in tongues and glorifying God. Then Peter responded, “Can anyone withhold the water for baptizing these people, who have received the Holy Spirit even as we have?” We then learn of Peter’s decision by his declaration, “And God, Who knows the heart, bore witness by granting them the Holy Spirit just as He did us. He made no distinction between us and them, for by faith He purified their hearts. Why, then, are you now putting God to the test by placing on the shoulders of the disciples a yoke that neither our ancestors nor we have been able to bear?” Acts 15:8-10

Often we put our LORD to the test saying, “LORD, if only You will allow me to get this job I’ll never smoke another cigarette.” Or “LORD, if only you let me have a boy, I’ll give ten percent of my pay for sure to the Church.” But we learn in John today that Jesus is the only Way to bear fruit and we must abide by His Word to accomplish the Glory of God in all things no matter what we are expecting even when things don’t go as we plan. “I am the Vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in Me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without Me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 Our LORD does not want a person who will only follow a complete surrender to His Son’s Truth by our moments of inspiration such as being lifted up by the Holy Spirit during a retreat or an unusual blessing after intense prayer. Our God wants us to be ready in any moment to accomplish His Will no matter the circumstance. When we begin to worship only the moments of grace instead of seeking a complete relationship with God then we risk becoming spiritually dead. The true reality of being in love with your love of Christ Jesus is that we are giving our all to every situation in our life whether we feel inspired or not by God’s Amazing Grace. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: Dear LORD of LORD’s, we pray today to always be ready at any moment to accomplish Your Truth in sharing Your Son’s Salvation by sharing a life of faith, charity and love. We ask this in Jesus Name. Amen.

God Bless,
Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins

Pruned to remain in Me

They strengthened the spirits of the disciples and exhorted them to persevere in the faith, saying, “It is necessary for us to undergo many hardships to enter the Kingdom of God.” Acts 14:22

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. John 14:27

Acts 14:19-28, Psalm 145 & John 14:27-31

When it seems you are just about to win someone over by preaching the Word of God to them the Devil and his cohorts arrive and steal your friend from you with the flash and flair of greed, lust and promises of lies and deceit. I can only imagine what the Jews from Antioch and Iconium were saying to stop the Lycaonians from continuing their praises of the disciples healing of the crippled man to stoning Paul and dragging him out of the town. Many of you may feel the same way about your children who spent their lives attending Church with you but in the end was dragged away from God’s grace by the promises of selfish acts of sin. I have heard of a many a mother and father who have prayed for their children for years asking they return to the church. One such mother prayed for her son for 17 years asking him to turn away from lust and sin to seek the Kingdom of God. This person was St. Monica who prayed for her son who ultimately became a Bishop and Doctor of the Church; St. Augustine. There is hope for anyone who is lost by your prayers and your fasting for conversion of other soul. Be steadfast for Truth and succeed!

The gift of Salvation is bestowed on humanity by God’s only Son Who accepted His mission with faith, honor and passion to accomplish not His Will but that of God Almighty. Jesus describes His ultimate temptation and overcoming of Satan’s greed of ruining the world by His statement in John 14:30, “for the ruler of the world is coming. He has no power over Me” before He begins His journey to the Garden of Gethsemane where Christ will sweat heavy drops of water appearing as blood for the preeminent arrest, scourging and crucifixion for the sins of all mankind for all Eternity. He wanted His Followers to know the Truth before it happened so they may come to believe in Him without question and to share this with the world. This is what we share when we talk to stranger and friends like about the Redemption Jesus Christ gives all by His Blood on the Cross that allows us to feel the same peace He shared with the disciples. A peace of comfort. A peace of joy. A peace of Truth allowing us to love our love of Christ Jesus with faith, charity and love. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: My Everlasting and Amazing God, we pray today for the peace of Your Son’s Truth to come upon humanity to overcome the desires of flesh and bring your sons and daughters home to the Promise of Everlasting Life. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

God Bless,

Salvation for Sin is Humanity’s Need

Peace comes from Me
I give it freely to thee
Salvation for your soul
God’s love to always know

Trouble not your heart in fear
I may go as it appears
But I am with you until the end
My love and comfort always a friend

You have seen before it occurs
My Power comes from His Word
Believe and Eternally live
Truth to sow and surely give

He may think he rules the world
By his lies and greed to trick and whirl
But it I Who knows his needs
The souls I save from the power to believe

The Father is my love no one can take
He has commanded Me to surely partake
My hands and feet to be Nailed and bleed
Salvation for Sin is Humanity’s need

Wig’s Word of God Today 5-23-2011

Men, why are you doing this? We are of the same nature as you, human beings. We proclaim to you Good News that you should turn from these idols to the Living God, Who made heaven and earth and sea and all that is in them. Acts 14:15

Whoever does not love Me does not keep My words; yet the Word you hear is not Mine but that of the Father who sent Me. John 14:24

Acts 14:5-18, Psalm 115 & John 14:21-26

Healing a crippled man since birth gave way to astonishment and praise by the Lycaonians who called out in their native tongue, “the gods have come down to us in human form.” Acts 14:11 This led to them attempting to sacrifice a bull but Paul and Barnabas ran out and stopped them explaining God has excused their past ignorance and further explains God’s natural existence in the seasons and the rains. Some Jews from Antioch and Iconium arrived and caused the crowds to rise up against them and they began to stone Paul who was dragged out of the city and presumed dead. They learned that “it is necessary for us (them) to undergo many hardships to enter the kingdom of God.” Acts14:22b

Jesus simply says, “Whoever has My commandments and observes them is the one who loves Me. And whoever loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him.” John 14:21 I can testify to this because I know in my heart Jesus has revealed Himself to me several times and continues to dwell in my heart as an Eternal Guide of faith, wisdom and Truth. I have learned to Trust the Advocate who seemingly allows things to happen as an enjoyment of the fate of God where I embrace all as His Will. There are times after you have given all in your surrender to Christ that life will happen with great joy and amazement and you will know it is so because you have given everything to Him and His Truth. By your love of loving Christ Jesus you will be lead by the Advocate (Holy Spirit) in everything you do and give all Glory to God Almighty. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: Dear Father God, we pray today for the continued healing of Augie Silva. We pray today we always make the choices that are guided by Your Spirit of Truth to accomplish the Will of God. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

God Bless,

Wig’s Word of God Today 5-22-2011

Come to Him, a living stone, rejected by human beings but chosen and precious in the sight of God. 1 Peter 2:4

Where (I) am going you know the Way. John 14:4

Acts 6:1-7, Psalm 33, 1 Peter 2:4-9 & John 14:1-12

The secular world feels that Jesus Christ is a stumbling block to their lives for His Truth gets in the way of their selfish acts of greed, distortions and lust of the heart. There is only One Way to live a life of Truth and that is to completely surrender your life to loving the love you give to faith, charity and hope of the Son’s Redemption. I have heard in a song: “What are you dong when nobody is watching?” In this darkness are you abiding by the Decrees of God and living life as a Child of God?

Allow nothing to keep you from your sense of duty to accomplish living in a Light of Truth seeking nothing in return. Jesus tells His Disciples today in John 14 that “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” John 14:6 In fact, He describes a dismay He feels when your lack of knowing Him is stated as Peter did in John 14:8-9, “Master, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you for so long a time and you still do not know Me, Philip?” Jesus describes a dismay by his unbelief and one we can avoid by our life’s walk of living in practice, prayer and proclamation..

As a Child of God, you allow the Living Presence of Christ and the Father to dwell in you giving you proof He does not show Himself to you. God will not show Himself to you but by your surrender to His Truth He will always dwell in you when you open your heart and accept His Way as the only Way to Eternal Life. He reminds us to be unafraid and allow not our hearts to be troubled, “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You have faith in God; have faith also in Me.” John 14:1

Inside your heart and soul resides the Truth of Life by studying His Word in your practice, by praying about everything you do and with anyone you meet and proclaiming the Gospel to bring souls to know His Redemption. We will soon learn about the Advocate and the peace our lives will have by His Truth we live each and every day. “The Advocate, the Holy Spirit that the Father will send in My name–He will teach you everything and remind you of all that (I) told you. Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.” John 14:26-27

So we ask in prayer: Dear God, we continue our prayers for Augie Silva’s recovery. We pray today we live knowing you dwell within us a guide to accomplish our practice, prayer and proclamation to seek only Your Way as the Way to live as an example for all to see. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Standing on the Stone of God’s Eternity

Humans rejected this Stone of Life
Precious and Chosen by God’s Light
Zion was built upon the Stone’s might
Humanity’s cornerstone forever right

This stone can build up your spiritual house
To stand firm and always be watertight
His love to offer a spiritual sacrifice
Acceptable to God through Jesus Christ

Its value resides in those who have faith
If you reject His Truth Satan will relate
The Stone will make you stumble
Across a Rock by disobeying His Word

Unless you abide in His Truth you have heard
His praises you may sing and rejoice assured
Out of darkness into Light to forever be
Standing on the Stone of God’s Eternity

The disciples were filled with joy and the Holy Spirit. Acts 13:52

Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in Me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these. John 14:12

Acts 13:44-52, Psalm 98 & John 14:7-14

The Jews became jealous of Paul and Barnabas because the Gentiles were drawn to their preaching of the Truth which offered them Eternal Life. The more they spoke, the more they were drawn to Gospel of Jesus and the more the Jews began to complain and ultimately had them both expelled from their region. I can see them now as they leave the town and pull their sandals off shaking the dust off at them in observance of Matthew 14:10; “Whoever will not receive you or listen to your words–go outside that house or town and shake the dust from your feet.” The Seed of Truth had been planted and it was time for Paul and Barnabas to continue their journey of preaching the Gospel to the ends of the earth.

The Gospel of John relates to Christ’s Glory in chapters 13 through 20 sharing Jesus’ Divine role in the Seven Signs or “I AM” statements. His Divine Purpose becomes more and more evident through His Declaration “that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me, or else, believe because of the works themselves.” John 14:11 I am often reminded of Christ’s statement “whoever believes in Me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these” when I see works of charity being performed by ordinary men and women of every walk of life.

When I share the Gospel of Christ to strangers through acts of charity, I remind them to accomplish the same act of joy when encountering people in their walk of life. By loving your love of Christ you will do the works of His Truth by your faith, charity and love and see greater ones each and every time. As people of faith, Christ implores us to be forthcoming to friends and strangers alike and allow His Spirit of Truth to overcome the ignorance of His Divine Teachings to thwart the consequences of living a life of greed, hate and self. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: Dear Abba Father, today we continue our prayers for healing of Augie Silva. We pray special intentions for Raquel’s work promotion. We pray we can accomplish Your Glory when we accomplish works of charity in Your Son’s Name. We ask this in Jesus Name. Amen.

God Bless,

Asking to see His proof
Jesus said you know Me Phillip
Living with Me is the Truth

No words come from Me alone
My Father dwells in every unknown
I speak His Truth I’ve always shown
His words were not lived on His own

All Works I have done is He
The Father of Life to always see
Ask in My Name His Glory to be
You will do greater works than these

He has brought to fulfillment for us, (their) children, by Raising up Jesus, as it is written in the Second Psalm, ‘You are my Son; this day I have begotten You.’ Acts 13:44

Do not let your hearts be troubled. You have faith in God; have faith also in Me. John 14:1

Acts 13:26-33, Psalm 2 & John 14:1-6

When you place your trust in the LORD, you place your trust in His Son’s Truth by following the Word of God in each step you take by acknowledging Him in your practice, your prayer and your proclamation.  Paul reminds us today that even though “the inhabitants of Jerusalem and their leaders failed to recognize Him,” they fulfilled the oracles of the prophets that were read Sabbath after Sabbath.

Jesus never lets us forget that we shouldn’t be troubled if we believe in Him for as He proclaimed “I am going to prepare a place for you” for where His going “you know the way.” Sometimes along the Way of life, we will encounter people who will come and go who helped us bring Christ back into our souls. These people help remind us that God never guides us to the future but help us be guided in the here and now. I pray I can remind people never to lose determination from looking into the eyes of Christ’s love but to keep their love and life centered on His Word, unceasing prayer and to have courage to proclaim His Truth to complete strangers making them friends for life. Yesterday I met two such people by asking God, “Who do You want me to pray with today?”

Many of you may know that I am member of the Disabled American Veteran Group of Coral Gables where I serve as Adjutant and Treasurer of Chapter 12. Once a month I drive down to Coral Gables to meet with brothers who like I served our country proudly. Yesterday, I was early so I asked the LORD where He wanted me to be in a short prayer,  “Who do You want me to pray with today?” before ending up in a front parking spot along Miracle Mile in front of the Starbucks. Being weary from my day with 25 amazing kids as a teacher and early riser to study His Word, I walked in to get a cup of coffee.

The lady at the counter said “may I help you” as she stared at my Cross on my neck. She then said, “what a beautiful Cross and so unusual.” My Cross is three crucifixes in One with two smaller crucifixes attached to either side of Christ in silver representing the two thieves who died with Him on Good Friday. As I explained where this piece of jewelry came from, she began to tell me she had just prayed for someone to ease her worries of someone rude as I began to tell her how important it is to share His love with anyone, anytime and anywhere. With tears in my eyes, I proclaimed my love of loving Him and recited my poem, “You Can’t Imagine.”

As we talked amongst customers coming in and out, a young man entered with a backpack on and I guessed what grade he was in and we began to chit chat about his school of Westminster which is a Christian School here in Miami. I smiled from ear-to-ear asking, “how often do you get to pray in school?” He replied, “some teachers pray before every class, some don’t but I pray daily myself as well. I shared my belief that taking prayer out of school is what has caused so many kids in today’s world to be rude, selfish and disrespectful.

We sat down and talked about life as a young Christian and this young man opened up to me telling me he has struggled with bouts of suicide, depression and lust. He assured me he has past this phase of his life with the help of God and is an aspiring actor here in a local theatre. I explained the secret of staying One with God was to include Him into every aspect of your life by studying His Word, prayer and proclamation to family and friends alike. We then prayed together and hugged as we walked outside to leave. I parted him by saying, “Be not afraid of the secular world of flash and flair of selfish acts of greed. People will put you down for loving Him and ask you to join them but seek His Truth and He will set you free.”

So we ask in prayer: My LORD and my God, today we keep Augie Silva in prayer as he continues his road to recovery. Praying with him yesterday LORD as you know, his love of you is steadfast. Please continue to heal him. We pray today for my two new friends in Christ I met yesterday in Coral Gables. May they always seek Your Word, Your love and Your Truth to guide them and lift them into eternal happiness. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

From this man’s descendants God, according to His promise, has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus. Acts 13:23

Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives the One Who sent Me. John 13:20

Acts 13:13-25, Psalm 89 & John 13:16-20

In Acts 13 we have Saul turned Paul testifying to the Truth in Antioch in Pisidia and he was asked by the synagogue officials; “My brothers, if one of you has a word of exhortation for the people, please speak.” Paul stood and proclaimed the history of David’s descendants that was testified to in the Old Testament by the Prophets. His message is clear: “From this man’s descendants God, according to His promise,
has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus.” Acts 13:23

John 13 brings about the Washing of the Disciples Feet and the naming of Judas as the traitor of Christ. Jesus describes the need for betrayer to accomplish his betrayal so “the Scripture might be fulfilled.” Never do we hear He is mad at this occurrence nor do we hear Him stating anything ugly at living the Will of God for the Salvation of Humanity. There is a lot to learn from this passage because we fail to see in our own lives the need to wash the feet or extend a hand of charity to those less fortunate than us or to maintain an constant level of thanksgiving even when people do ugly things to us.

Many in the world feel it is beyond them to do something that has been labeled as a servant’s job. This is exactly the reason why Jesus washed His Disciples feet; “I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do. Amen, amen, I say to you, no slave is greater than his master nor any messenger greater than the one who sent him. If you understand this, blessed are you if you do it.” John  13:15-17 Even the one who betrays you should be given the same love and prayers as the one who loves you. Love your love of Christ and fulfill His acts of faith, charity and love. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: My LORD and My God, we pray today for continued improvement of Augie Silva and we thank You LORD for his continued improvement. LORD we pray today for the people who have lost touch with You especially my friend’s daughter, Vanessa. May all who have allowed the secular world of flash, flair and selfishness be reunited with Your Son’s Truth and forgive to live in peace for Your Glory. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Then, completing their fasting and prayer, they laid hands on them and sent them off. Acts 13:3

If anyone hears My words and does not observe them, I do not condemn him, for I did not come to condemn the world but to save the world. John 12:47

Acts 12:24—13:5a, Psalm 67 & John 12:44-50

In Acts today we learn how Barnabas and Saul began their journey to Cyprus by fasting and prayer preparing them for God’s work of proclaiming the Gospel. Once they arrived anywhere, they immediately entered the Jewish synagogues and began preaching the Word of God. How often do you really fast? How often do you pray? Fasting should be a weekly occurrence with petitioner prayers in mind choosing to pray for someone or something you need help with in your life. Prayer should be unceasingly over everything you do in your life.

I know, many of you will say, “How can I do that Thomas?” But prayer is a love and necessity of showing your love of God and your thankfulness for your life. I like to think praying is a beautiful habit to form that enlightens your life with faith, courage and action to accomplish the Will of God. Once you make it a habit to pray when you get up, pray when you eat any meal, pray when get dressed, pray when you get in your car to drive anywhere, pray when you work or play, and pray before you go to bed at night will sustain an everlasting presence of God in your mind, heart and soul. Just pray! Amen.

We’ve all heard Jesus say, “I did not come to condemn the world but to save the world,” but how many of you truly listened to the beginning of His Proclamation of this verse where He says “If anyone hears My words and does not observe them, I do not condemn him.?” Here Jesus reminds us again we are not to judge the world for the Father will judge everyone according to their deeds in His time not ours. Be a Christian of Action not silence to share His Truth with anyone, anyplace and anytime. Be prepared by your practice (Bible study) to bring souls to His Salvation by your love of loving His Word. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: Dear gracious and merciful God, we continue our prayers for Augie Silva and his healing. We pray today that we never condemn the ones who do not follow Your Word but instead we pray to have the strength to share Your Son’s Salvation by our knowledge of Your Word. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
