This is the Day the Lord Has Made Psalm 118:24 By Bishop Brenda K. Perry
Happy New Year to everyone! This is not just another day, but another year that the Lord God Almighty has made for us. So I chose I’m sure I’m not alone in this daze and to rejoice in it. Although leaving last amazement of how quickly the year came and year with sweet and sadness behind departed. Truly each day’s “life expectancy” is me, I will always rejoice and be glad the length of a vapor. in the Lord. 2011 flew by me on a bullet train, leaving me wondering how much of my plans were actually accomplished.
This thought can be either frightening or an encouragement, depending on how we each choose to view it.
Many people live their live constantly at the mercy of time - always in a rush, but accomplishing little. They wait until it’s too late to do what needs to be done. They fill their “to do list” with more needs than what can realistically be accomplished. Or they start doing what need to be done, but quickly become distracted doing the other things that really don’t have to be done “at this moment”. These habits lead to the panic of “I never have enough time!” Then there are those who see the limited amount of realistic time in a day as a guideline to help them prioritize what ‘MUST” be done. They have learned to “want” to get done what “must” be done before doing what they would “like” to get done. As we give our time to God in 2012, we must ask Him what “MUST” be done while it is day? How do we use our time to reach souls this year? How do we give meaningful time to our families? How do we give acceptable time to ministry service? Even if the year is traveling on a bullet train, with God’s wisdom and help we can do what “MUST” be done in 2012.
Mel A. Perry, Editor In Chief 2
Looking at the newspaper headlines and magazine as well, and listening to everyday broadcasting of news that’s happening around your community and the world, you can see the fulfillment of God’s Word coming to pass. Presidents and presidential candidates around the world are making promises knowing they can’t keep, or even make possible without God’s help. We, as Christian believers, must look up and see that our redemption draws near. So for us to get caught up in the entire world’s problems is foolish. We must remember that this world is not our final destiny, but heaven and all of God’s purposes that have to be fulfilled. The patriarchs of old said it this way in Hebrew 11:13b, “…that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.” There is not too much to rejoice in this world. What would be the one thing that would keep our soul rejoicing every day? Would it be fine material goodies? If you are single, would it be finding the right soul mate, or achieving life goals? No. Those things are temporal, and they will soon pass

away. The Bible tells us in Matthew 6:19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasure on earth.” Why? God does know that so many times His people set their whole being upon things that will profit very little if anything at all. So what could it be that would keep us rejoicing everyday of the year? continue on page 4
Don’t Worry Jesus Has it Covered Matthew 6:31-32, Psalm 55:22, 1 Peter 5:7, Rev. 1:8 By Minister Isaac Bazile
You know a few days ago I found myself worrying about a certain situation in my life and I was praying asking the Lord to help me through this situation. Then I read an excerpt in the “Word Today” and it was talking about worry and how we deal with it and it talked about “Casting all of our cares upon Him.” The writer said that worry was a lack of trust in God. That statement caused me to think if it was a valid statement or not, it was a very profound statement. I said to myself “WOW” I never thought of it that way. That statement rang out so loud in my heart, I thought sometimes we get so caught up in worrying about what goes on in our life that we begin to worry about worrying. The writer also said that someone said just don’t worry about it! That very simple and powerful statement “Just don’t Worry about it” to me indicates that the truth is if we put our complete trust in the Lord, we will begin to understand that He has us covered. The word of god constantly reminds us of that fact, continue on page 4

Each day we arise and will 1:16 reads, “For I am not ashamed of have that burst of energy “to come the gospel of Christ, for it is the power boldly to the throne of grace” of God to salvation for everyone who knowing that we have placed Him believes.” We testify of the works of first on our agenda for the day. Let’s Christ and how it has change our lives go and check out Matthew 6:9-15 how in James 5:20, “….he who turns a Jesus taught His disciples how to pray. sinner from the error of his way will Following this example of prayer each save a soul from death and cover a day will put you in close relationship multitude of sins.” with the Father and the people of God.

Yes, return of the Jews that were in setting your heart to please Him, it captivity. Well, we can use these would bring joy to your soul. 1Samuel scripture for us today in reaching lose 15:22 reads “to obey is better than souls. In verse 5-6 “those who sow in sacrifice,” tears shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, Third would be having a willing bearing seed for sowing, shall heart in giving, whether it’s finance, doubtless come again with rejoicing, time, even yourself or whatever the bringing his sheaves with him.” obligation that’s requested of you, as you would take that willing spirit of Rejoice, rejoice and be glad! yours and say “Yes Lord.

Worry can’t clothe us, feed us, pay our bills, make our lives better, and most assuredly it can’t improve our current situation. Worry can only take form us and cloud our judgement, the decision we make, it impairs our prayer life and relationship with the Lord. Worry can also hinder us spiritually. We should always guard our pray life and relationship with the Lord. The word of God tells us to “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be removed” (Psalm 55:22 NKJV). HE’s literally telling us he has us covered, “Casting all of your care upon him; for he careth for you” (1 Peter 5:7, NKJV), He knows what we need before we need it, he has the solution before we present the situation, and he knows the end from the beginning, “I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” (Revelation 1:8, NKJV). What comfort it is to know that Jesus has it all in control. Worry creates or brings about anxiety. The average Christian’s anxiety is focused on: 40%,things that will never happen 30%,things about the past that can't be changed 12%,things about criticism by others, mostly untrue 10%,about health, which gets worse with stress 8%,about real problems that will be faced.

It is preom evangelizing. Evangelism is not a personal testimony. Our personal Outreach Ministry testimony doesn’t save a sinner. The gospel does. Our good deeds, feeding or clothing someone does not prepare a soul for eternity. All of these acts compliment the gospel. They do not replace it.
iWIN 2012 I am so excited anticipating what God will do through iWIN 2012 at New Life Temple. What is iWIN? I am glad you asked. As Christians we can become so focused on our faith journey that we forget God’s command to go tell others the Good News. We tend to feel that inviting someone to church
Jan/Feb
But what is iWIN? I’m almost there. We must first be sure we understand what evangelism is. Evangelism is a believer sharing the person of the gospel of Jesus Christ with a person who has yet to believe the claims of the gospel, or trust the person at the center of the gospel – Jesus Christ. Now with that being said, I will tell you about New Life Temple’s focus for 2012 in iWIN.
iWIN is an acronym for the following: “i” stands for “Personal”. Evangelism is personal. Jesus anointed us to do this when He gave the great commission. There are people assigned to you who only you can minister to. “W” stands for WITNESS. We must witness in speech and in our lifestyle. “I” stands for INTERACT”. Sharing the gospel will cause you to interact with person. Concern, compassion, love must be exercised in following up with that person (if at all possible). There immediate situation should be addressed with prayer, or directions, or even meeting a physical need. “N” stands for nurture. Our goal is to help people to develop in Christ, so encouragement must be maintained. Encourage them to pray, read God’s word, attend church services and bible study.

God. We can only do all things through Him that strengthens us (Philippians 4:13). Therefore, if you profess to be a Christian, and claim that Christ is the Author and Finisher of your faith, acknowledge the Source that makes you exist. Our gifts are not to be prostituted for our fame and glory, for monetary riches that will soon pass away, or for the world’s insatiable vain desires. God did not bless anyone with gifts for their own welfare and benefit, but rather that it would revert back to Him, the Giver, and uplift Him more. Since we are made in His image, our gifts should be an amplified enhancement of who God is. Cite the source where you received your resources from. By acknowledging Him, we put more credibility into our lives and avoid plagiarizing His awesome splendor.

I never knew just how flawed my American education was until this past December. I mean it’s shameful how I was miseducated in these places we have labeled “schools”! And the fact that my parents paid taxes thinking I was getting a proper education...seriously, they didn’t know any better. They received the same sham of an education as well. America really should be ashamed of itself! Every American who has attended school in any of the 50 states has been sold a sack of lies. All of it!!!! If you know me a little , then you probably know I love an adventure. And there is no greater adventure than a tripa road trip that is. When it was decided that we would spend our Christmas holiday with my sister and her family I thought I must make this moment memorable. I’d been craving a real road trip...desperately needing to hit the road. Not only was my travel bones needing to feel the beating of a road trip, but I missed the torture of a way too long bus ride. So I my mind thought of the perfect Christmas gift to me. A Christmas bus ride on the Hound! Could I really handle a days worth of traveling on a bus? After a quick assessment of my mental capacity, I received the results that this was the perfect cure to my need to travel.

All freshly showered for my 21 hours of travel to Jacksonville, I was deposited at the Houston bus terminal in midtown yea I know people say the downtown bus station but I’m being technical here. It was quickly apparent as I stood in line waiting to board on the new Hounds - fully loaded with wifi and electrical power outlets - this was going to be a bus ride to remember. All settled in, pulled out my laptop, signed on to the wifi and plugged myself into the power - yea I was cruising on top of the world. Somewhere between Houston and Layette, LA the devil jumped on board our bus. For some reason he picked my bus to get on that night. To afraid to show his face he sat in the bathroom and kept blowing his breath through the vents in the back half of the bus - where I was sitting. It was the most deadly odor I have ever smelled in my life!!! Honestly whoever or whatever had fallen through that toilet and come through the vents was DEAD! After unloading and reloading in Mobile, in the wee hours of the morning, I found a seat towards the front. Finally, I could get some sleep.

lectured on the “Miseducation of American History”. Talk about a profound lecture! I’ve never heard anything like it. And as exhausted as I was, I was so intrigued to learn that I really had been hoodwinked and bamboozled by the lies my teachers soled me! Awaken from my ignorance of the lack of knowledge as to what was the true history of my country, I clung to every word. Oh, thank you Dr. Kemosabee for shinning light on the knowledge that North African Moors were actually living in America before the Native Americans arrived. The history books lied and said that Alabama (your home state) was the 22nd in the union, when it was really the 1st state in the union. In fact, you taught me that Alabama actually owned all the other states. And without the knowledge of most Americans, 21 states have left the union. How could I have been so ignorant? And how dare the government hide the fact that Bush, the senior, got all of his money from Bin Laden’s father. And that George Jr and Bin Laden were play mates as kids! I have been miseducated and ill informed!!! I demand a refund on all my education! Yep, I was cracking up the whole time in my seat, taking note of my miseducation. I was told never to share this with anyone, hahaha!
“I can’t wait to hear the stories when you get here!”
But here’s what I walked away with, the dreadlocked priest (something else he claimed to be) and the poll dancing missionary where not ashamed to talk boldly about what they believed was the Wait! Who let professor “Kemosabee” truth, though there was no support for on the bus?! their claims.
Yep, my sister was feeling my need for adventure and the tall tall tales that come with such travel.
A loud, non-stop talking, poll dancing missionary from Spain was granted permission to sit next to Dr. Kemosabee and share the stage as he
To my sister’s delight, I informed her that I would be traveling to Jacksonville from Houston via the United States Greyhound bus system.
