Food for thought  9th July 10.....

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands
but seeing with new eyes.

(Not that I'm advocating cigarettes, whisky etc... think this song might need some re-writing...but I like it. Apparently the original version sings about bubble gum trees not cigarette)

 

Just Joking

A man was walking along the beach in California when he noticed a magic lamp laying in the sand. He picked it up and rubbed it and a Genie appeared. The Genie asked what the year was. The man said that it was 1999. The Genie said in that case he could have one wish. The man said that he loved to visit Hawaii but hated to fly and was frightened of boats. So he wanted the Genie to build him a bridge to Hawaii. The Genie thought about it for a while and then said that there would be a lot of work involved. The pylons would have to be at least two miles deep and that would be a lot of trouble, would the man make a different wish. The man said that he had always wanted to understand women. The Genie said that he would go check on those pylons.

The Lord is saying. Continue praising for I will do a great work, greater than you can imagine or think. Keep praising for that which is not yet manifest.

9th July 10

The Lord is saying: I am with you, you have come through into that place I have been calling you. Establish that which has been started by carrying through into all the areas of your life this truth that has been revealed. If you are to go on into the place of fruitfulness this 'new' truth will break up the fallow ground and will water the seeds you have sown over many years. Your harvest will come quickly

The Lord is saying. You are grasping new concepts build on them and they won't diminish from your mind. If you are going forward you won't slip back.

 

Wow!!! What a word I heard from Andrew Wommack's TV Broadcasts at Derby the other night.

 

Apparently there are 13 blessings that would come on the Jews if they kept ALL the commandments of the Lord. If they didn't keep ALL the commandment there were 52 curses that came upon them. That's quadruple the amount of blessings. That doesn't seem like very good news. But guess what!! Because Jesus kept ALL the commandments we get all the blessings and none of the curses.

Well!! you think it would be a good reason to quickly skip over all those curses in Deuteronomy 28....but No!! We can go to them and speak over probably every negative situation we are facing, declaring that because Jesus has fulfilled all the requirements of the commandments that we are entitled to be free from every curse listed. The devil's a legalist - he has to take his hands off us when we declare what is written.

Just look in Deuteronomy 28 and find some bits for yourself..... its worth it... there's stuff in there thats bothered me for years. These are just some of the things that we can declare freedom from.

Poverty

Any sicknesses we've been afraid of getting

Blindness

Madness

Haemorrhoids !!!

Confusion

Being beaten by your enemies

War

Mildew!!!!
(Apparently Andrew spoke to it when it was in his house and told it to go on the basis of Deut 28 and that Jesus had fulfilled ALL the requirements to get rid of it.)

 

Its well worth looking through to see what it covers. you can be sure that....

YOUR NAME IS NOT WRITTEN ON ANY OF THE CURSES THERE BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS HAS DONE. IT NEEDS DECLARING IN FAITH !!!

We overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony!!

Sip This Juice for Clearer Arteries
By RealAge


Whether beside oatmeal or eggs, this breakfast favorite is sure to help keep your arteries squeaky clean: orange juice. (Shirley's note: Orange juice isn't great if you get cystitis... but Rosehip tea is a great substitute with more Vit C than oranges and great for bladder health)

In a study of men, those with a high intake of vitamin C -- as well as berries and other fresh fruit -- experienced significantly less thickening of their carotid arteries compared with the low fruit-and-C group.

 


Pipe-Cleaning C


Clear arteries. They're super important because gunk-free can often mean problem-free. But carotid-artery thickness is important, too. It's a direct measure of atherosclerosis -- the hardening and narrowing of arteries that can lead to heart disease, heart attack, or stroke. To keep your arteries wide open and pliable for years to come, you need foods rich in both vitamin C and other pipe-friendly antioxidants.


Open Wide


Similar studies have found that vitamin C may help protect your cardiovascular system in numerous other ways as well, from improving the functioning of the cells lining your arteries; to thinning your blood, thereby reducing the risk of clots; to quelling bad-for-your-heart inflammation.

 

5 Foods That Take Years off Your Skin



Perhaps the only food you associate with skin is a little whipped cream on Saturday night. But plenty of other foods (ones you can eat in public) can help protect your skin, so you look and stay younger:
1. Legumes, avocados, soybeans, nuts, and egg yolks: These contain biotin, and a lack of this chemical can lead to dry skin and brittle hair and nails.
2. Salmon: The carotenoid that gives this fish its pink color, astaxanthin, also improves your skin's elasticity. And it's full of the good fat -- DHA-omega-3 -- that makes your skin and hair look younger and healthier.
3. Green tea: Its polyphenols act to protect you against sun damage and help thicken your epidermis, your body's primary barrier to the outside world.
4. Pomegranates: In addition to thickening your epidermis and helping to produce more collagen and elastin (the stuff that keeps your skin firm and springy), pomegranates contain antioxidants that seem to accelerate wound healing.
5. Tomatoes: The nutrients in tomatoes reduce the chance you'll get a sunburn (but you still have to use an SPF 50 and 4-star titanium dioxide or zinc oxide sunscreen!). It may be due to their lycopene content, but we really don't know the active ingredient. So if there's a choice between a lycopene supplement and the real tomato, choose the product from the vine.
There's plenty more you can do to be more beautiful inside and out (in fact, we just wrote a whole book on it, called YOU: Being Beautiful). But these shifts give you a smart and easy start.

House of Bread

Hope you had a good time at the Danum Conference with Katey Moreland on the 11th July 10.

The offering came to £97.91 which will go towards the rental of the room and to Brother Raju to help him in his work with the children, orphans, widows and Aids victims. Thank you for your generous giving.

I am thinking of changing the time on a Sunday so that it will be a more convenient time than 2.00 pm. If you have any thoughts on this please email.

I will let everyone know about this Sunday in next update.

Prayer Requests

I am ministering in song and testimony at the Doncaster Prison in Marshgate this Sunday Morning 18th July 10. Please pray for a mighty anointing and that the prisoners will be really blessed.

Please pray for Bernard to get totally healed and completely saved. There is some concern because he had to have an extra X-ray. He has had bone cancer. Pray it will have disappeared.

 

Please pray for Sue who has had a brain tumour. Please pray for a full recovery and salvation to come to that household.

 

Looks like Jan is up for getting some guitar recorded on my singing tracks for the cd. Thanks Lord. Please pray it will come together beautifully and be up and running for Hollybush.

 

 

Thanks Shirley
