Good morning folks.
I have some exciting news to share with you.
One of my songs, Come Walk on the Water With Me, has been nominated for consideration in the Collaboration of the year category.
I also had two of my albums nominated:
Trevor's Christmas - in the Seasonal Album of the Year category and
Trevor's Country - in the Country Album of the Year category.
It is going to be a long wait for the banquet in March; out in beautiful Langley, B.C.
Blessings on all of you.

"YOU ARE HEALED, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, SO ACCEPT IT" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

YOU ARE HEALED, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, SO ACCEPT IT
God's Choice
Luke 2:37, 'And she [was] a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served [God] with fastings and prayers night and day.'
LUKE 2:36-40
Let's suppose that Anna was fourteen years old when she married. She would have been 105 years old. Yet she was still fasting and praying night and day! Satan tries to convince us that God won't use us. He may cite things like age or lack of abilities, or failures that we've had. But just like Anna, there are many scriptural examples of the Lord using those who would be considered unusable by worldly standards.
Moses was eighty years old before he began to fulfill God's plan for his life and he worked right up until he was 120 years old....
WHAT IS THE GOSPEL?
Revelation Knowledge
Luke 2:26, 'And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.'
LUKE 2:25-35
Simeon didn't receive this knowledge through the normal method of learning. This knowledge was revealed to him directly from the Holy Spirit. This revelation knowledge which comes only from God is distinctly different than knowledge acquired through study. Man's knowledge is based on observation. It cannot give perfect instruction about the future. God's knowledge can. Through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit we can know things to come (Jn. 16:13).
When dealing with God, revelation knowledge is essential. The Lord's ways are not always our ways (Isa. 55:8). A...
God Looks For Availability
Luke 2:24, 'And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.'
LUKE 2:21-24
The Old Testament passage being quoted is from Lev. 12:6-8. There the Lord commanded a lamb and a young pigeon or a turtledove as the prescribed sacrifice. If the woman was unable to offer a lamb, then two young pigeons or two turtledoves were acceptable. Mary would not have offered the lesser offering if it had been in her power to provide the lamb.
This reveals that Joseph and Mary were not well off financially, yet the Lord chose them to be the earthly parents of His only begotten Son.
The Lord doesn't choose the way man chooses. Man looks...
ARE YOU STRESSED?
IT CAN GET UGLY BUT, PRAISE GOD, WE HAVE A WAY OUT. MATTHEW 11:28-30 SAYS "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your...
PRAYER IS NOT JUST FOR ASKING FOR SOMETHING
Peace With God
Luke 2:14, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.'
LUKE 2:8-20
In another instance, Jesus said He did not come to send peace on the earth, but a sword. Then He prophesied that those who received Him would experience persecution, even from their own family (Mt. 10:34-36). How do these verses fit together?
The peace the angels were singing about was not a peace between men; they were rejoicing that there would be peace between God and man. When Jesus prophesied division and war in Matthew 10, he was speaking of relationships between men.
Through the Old Testament law, God began to release His wrath on man's sin (Rom. 4:15). It wasn't the wrath of Satan that Jesus suffered...
