Finding Victory In Hard Times

In the summer of 1905, on the shores of central California, the fishing town of Monterey, suffered a very great economic blow.

Monterey is a picturesque community, 100 miles south of San Francisco. It is situated on the great Monterey Bay.

The Monterey Bay, gave to the city of Monterey all the bounty of the ocean. For decades Monterey fishermen brought back the fruit of the sea, the fish, that fed millions of people in America.

The backbone of this great fishery, and therefore of the economy in Monterey, was the annual catch of sardines.

These sardines were captured, brought to port, and then to Cannery Row – a row of fish canning operations lining the Monterey beach. There, of course, the sardines were packed into silver cans, wrapped in a red and black paper seal declaring them to be high-quality sardines from Monterey, California. They were then shipped throughout America and the world.

And the economy was good.

But, in the summer of 1905, something terrible happened. An economic disaster of unprecedented proportions happened to this bustling fishing town.

The disaster was this: the fishermen and their many boats, and many employees, simply over fished the sardine population. They did it to such a degree, that the sardines couldn't reproduce their stock – and, suddenly, sardines simply disappeared from the fisherman's nets! They were gone! And with them, were also, apparent to everyone, the good times for people in Monterey.

But – and this is a very important but – this was not the end of the story. A very great and ominous disaster had happened on their watch, but now something wondrous and hopeful, also took place on their watch.

Here is what, actually, happened: first, the people of Monterey and their churches, prayed. Now, whether you believe in prayer or not, that is secondary to the story. My duty is just to give hope and tell you how the story turned out, in actual history.

Most of the ship owners in Monterey doubled as their own ship captains. There were no big corporate fleets. It was mostly private fishermen who had built their fishing business to the level of having a ship or two, and going out daily and bringing the fish back. They worked hard at it, and they became better and better at what they did, and therefore became more and more successful.

But the sea had always helped them. Now that the sardines were gone, what next? What would happen to the economy, to the ship owners and captains, and to all the crews and their families?

The captains of the ships talked among themselves. As they talked, they told tales that they had heard long ago, about schools of great fish, that a Monterey fisherman and his ship and crew had once found.

But, these great fish, which were only known by the thin thread of perhaps a tall tale, were caught as far out as 200 miles from the shore! No Monterey fisherman and his crew, at least for decades, had gone beyond 20 miles!

No one ever dared to go that far! It had not yet entered the imagination of the people.

They had the vessels for it, and the crews. Now what they needed was some bold and intrepid captains, who would dare to go farther into deeper waters, than anyone ever had before.

And, in a true to life story, several believing captains, with their valiant ships and willing crews, set out to find out if the tales of these great fish had any truth to them.

They went fifty miles. Then eighty miles. Then over a hundred miles. But approximately one hundred and fifty miles out, they saw "boiling water" – a strange occurrence on the surface of the water that far out in the middle of the sea.

The captains and their crews, decided to fish these "boiling waters." For their efforts, they began to pull in yellowfin tuna anywhere from 100 to 300 pounds! And there was no end to them!

Now, dear reader, understand that until this date in history, no one in the entire world had ever eaten tuna. Well, maybe some long ago sea captain and his crew had. But for the most part, tuna had never been known before. It had never been seen or eaten!

So, the intrepid sea captains and their fishermen returned home to Monterey with great good news – and a big load of great fish!

Think about it. Sardines were only 4 to 8 inches long, and now the fishermen replaced them with tuna that were 4-8 feet long! The sardines weighed a half-pound at best, and the tuna weighed up to three hundred pounds. In fact, later, as fishermen found the will to go farther, they caught bluefin tuna, that weighed up to 1500 pounds!

Thus, by being willing to go further than anyone had gone before and by choosing to act in new ways rather than just sit and suffer, although the economy went down with the sardines – now it went up with the tuna! Following what might have been just a tall story by an old salt, turned out to give the people of Monterey a true, and much greater, story. They introduced tuna and tuna fishing to the world. Their ships got bigger. Their crews got paid more. More tourists came to Monterey. The little bustling fishing didn't go down with the sardines!

Somehow, the town, its people, and its economy all got a new lease on life. They grew. They prospered. And – they fed the whole world to a far greater degree.

In that summer day of 1905, when the sardine stock fell and the bottom dropped out of the sardine business, it shook everybody up. But, they said their prayers, decided to go further than ever before, chose to "seek a greater story" – and, however combined elements made it happen – tuna, much larger than sardines, and a tuna catch, much greater than the total sardine catch had ever achieved, was brought into the history, and to the palates, of the entire world.

The economy recovered and boomed.

My friends, could it be possible that right now, this very day, that even as you experience the loss of something you long felt secure and that you built your hopes on, just a little farther ahead, with a little willingness to keep your chin and morale up, exploring a little further, pursuing a greater, not lesser, story for you and yours, we might ourselves see our "sardines" not just gone, but our own kind of new, far greater, "tuna" right in front of us replacing our loss with something much better?

I believe that people with the American dream, don't just get better dreams. They get a better story. It comes complete with the faith, the new vision, the will to try, the solid meat of the fish, the adventures, and the tale to tell all our children about.

The measure of something great is that greater things still come out of it.

Say your prayers, stoke the embers of your dreams and visions. Listen to wise stories. Make your minds and ships go further into the ocean of the Spirit – and I believe either you yourself, or some intrepid captains, are going to come back with the equivalent of boatloads of silver tuna in our time – together with directions how you can get a lot more of them.

The Powers Of The Heavens

Mat 24:25 Behold, I have told you before.

Mat 24:26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

Mat 24:27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Mat 24:28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

Mat 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

The Carnal Flies

Do you ever encounter them? Those intentional distractions. When someone or a group of people attempt to intentionally distract you with the hopes of throwing you off course, frustrating you or setting you back?

Here's something key. Be wise, don't become offended, press through, stand your ground and watch how God will strengthen you. In the end you will be exalted, and those who with a malicious heart and intent set themselves against you will be cast down and brought low.

"Remember, we fight not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers and spiritual wickedness in high places"

Jam 5:2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.

Mammon

As I watch this financial meltdown taking place in the United States. I must ask, "where is the favor of God" upon our nation? How is it possible that such a great nation could be encountering such potential financial destruction? And now the answer is to place the American people in bondage to an additional 7 million dollars to bail out the financial crisis.

Oh America, how far you have fallen.

Do You Need A Prophetic Word

There are a lot of hurting people in the world. Truth is we don't have to look far to find them. They are around us daily. At work, at the grocery store, within our communities, on the very streets that we live on and sometimes in our own homes.

What can each of us as Christian's do to reach out to others? Maybe the simplicity of a smile, maybe inviting and buying someone lunch, maybe that single mother that's struggling, maybe that girl or boy down the street that lost a father or mother through a divorce. Truly the opportunities to bless others are all around us, and everywhere. May we all be a friend to someone in need and simply be Christ like.

Overcoming Sadness

Depression is like a cancer. Once it sets in, it can overtake us and place us in bondage. Severe depression has a crippling effect. It steals and robs us of our joy and ability to experience happiness. Of course we could get into all the intense reasons and causes of depression. But enough of that.

I encourage those dealing with depression to enter into a place of prayer. What kind of prayer. Simply pray and talk to God. Tell him what you are experiencing and simply ask Him for help.

I encourage you to also find some praise and worship music that you like, listen to it and make it a part of your days. You see when we lift our voices up to God, give Him praise and worship Him. The Kingdom of God, meaning heaven, comes to earth. And when the Kingdom comes, depression leaves.

Called To A Higher Calling

Beloved of the Lord,

You are called to a higher calling and a huge part of that calling is to walk in the love of Christ as a vessel that Christ's love flows through. Religion and the ways of religion fall short of that calling as do the prcepts of men. However the Kingdom of God, it's rule and it's authority shall never fall short.

Therefore let the love of Christ, the King, flow through you and be a light that shines brightly for Christ.

Be A Gift To Others

Mercy does indeed triumph over judgement, therefore be merciful even as God has been and is merciful towards you. Let your light of mercy and compassion shine brightly.

Jesus Christ

He is the greatest of all gifts. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for the sins of the world.

Give The Gift Of Love

Look around and see. There are many opportunities to love others. There are hurting people all over the world in need of love, and being loved. Reach out to them in and through the love of God flowing through you. You see, we all can make a difference.

When Heaven Rains Favor

It's that time! A time where I just give Glory to God, and give witness to His favor and blessings. You see times are hard. In fact for many around the world and yes even here in the US, times are hard. We have also encounter the financial crunch, high utility bills, high pump prices, layoffs and all those economic things that can make life difficult.

However I must share that in the midst of some potential great storms. God has covered us with His love, His faithfulness, His favor, His blessings and with loving and wonderful friends in Christ. We are blessed, thankful and yes, even in awe.

May the love and favor of God be poured out upon your life as you seek Him, worship Him, and lift your needs up to Him in prayer.

Politics

We are a country and a world of politics. From the simplest form of decision making to the highest office in the land. I guess politics can be good. However I see it in many ways as division, competition, strife, and manipulation.

I have been watching the presidential campaign unfold, and I am very disappointed. Not so much in the system, but the candidates. They seem to be spending more time arguing, debating each other personally, and slamming each other than sharing what they will do for the American people.

Yes I realize that they speak on issues, however I see more beating around the bush and slogans than honesty, truth and leadership qualities. Yes I hear the words, the speeches, the communications. But I don't see love, compassion, integrity, honor or a desire to truly lead this country to a place of fruitfulness for all. Just the desire to win, and become elected.

It is my prayers that there is a revival in the heart of the next president. A revival of love, compassion, integrity, honor, and Godly wisdom, and character.

Blessings to all.

The Earth Will

Habakkuk 2:14 says the earth will be filled with God's glory. Isaiah 2:2 says the church will be an overwhelmingly powerful force in the last days, that all the nations will run to her for life and answers. These passages go together! God's glory will cover the earth when the church prevails in the earth, since His glory is married to her (Eph 3:21).

Now that is good news!

Blessings, from In His Glorious Name Ministries Online

Jesus Is The Reason Why

I was recently asked why there are no personal photos of family on our ministry blogs. I have considered placing photography of that sort up, and we do have a Online Family Blog spot.

The reason why I have refrained from such is because as I look at the many online ministry sites I find more Glory being given to men, teachers, ministries, the we's and us's, than I do to Christ, the Kingdom of God or His Word. Whereas many times I personally feel that the Kingdom of God, and the word of God is more so used to exhalt men, their ministries and to build ministries. But that's my personal opinion.

Therefore, I determined long ago to seek to do all things to the Glory of God, share the love of Christ, His Redeeming Passion, Encouragement, the Word of God, and simply refrain from taking the Glory.

That's also why the ministry is named To His Glorious Name Ministries. Because truly it's all about Christ.

Christ Paid The Price

It's OK. We can all take the mask off. There's nothing to hide, for there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Once we come to Christ, we are washed, and made clean.

Thank you Jesus!

The Grace Study

God's grace is a very profound part of our relationship with God. We all want and need God's grace flowing in our lives. Did you know that there are 159 verses in the word of God that speak of God's grace. I love performing word and phrase searches in the scriptures. Here's one all about grace from the book of Genesis to the book of Revelations. It is filled with blessings.

Grace

The Gift Of Love

Uncommon Grace

Today I was referred to a post at a Christian blog that truly blessed me. It shares a real life situation and God's grace in the midst of a major storm.

May you be blessed, encouraged and find the compassion and grace of God as you read it.

Uncommon Grace

Jesus Said Walk In This Word

Mat 5:42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

Have you ever wondered how many times God has placed a situation before you to fulfill this scripture in your life? That homeless man you saw walking down the street, knowing that he was homeless. That person that asked for money to buy food, knowing he was a beggar. That individual that asked for your help, knowing that he was in need.

We all daily, weekly and monthly have situations that are right in the reality of our life where God is calling us to be givers, and not turn others away. Where God is calling us to walk in love, mercy and compassion.

May we all have eye's to see, ears to hear, and hearts of compassion for others.

Blessings, in Christ.

Home Fellowships

I just want to encourage you to have a weekly home fellowship. Simply a night of prayer, worship, and ministry time. Providing a safe place for others to gather, to worship, to share fellowship and receive prayer.

I have attended many home fellowships over the years, and even led a few. There is a wonderful presence of God that just manifests when people come together and worship in a home fellowship type setting. Many church's have come forth and been planted through home fellowships. In fact, the early church was all about home fellowships, sharing meals, prayer, and simply believers gathering.

You might say who would lead worship. No doubt that worship music is important. That's easy, burn some cd's and put the songs in just the right order. I use to lead home fellowships with cd's, we would gather, and worship for hours. Some nights of worship would go on for 3 to 4 hours non stop. It was awesome.

So consider it. Holding a home fellowship, inviting others, and simply sharing fellowship in Christ. You will be blessed.

Like The Days Of Joseph

In watching the US economy we are hearing more and more about a recession, economic collapse, higher oil prices, which are now at $103.00 a barrel, and other financial concerns for America. We have watched home sales and every industry related to them be hit hard from the mortgage crises. We hear daily news reports of American's loosing their homes, higher gas prices, higher utility prices, corporate losses, a unstable stock market, and across the board America and American's are struggling.

Meanwhile billions and billions are being spent overseas to fight terrorism and being pledged to others countries and we are seeing a split it the power of this nation in many forms of government. Unity within our government is not to be found.

We all have heard stories of the great depression, and maybe some recall it. Could that happen again? Yes, it could. But the question is are we making preparations for the just incase that does happen again or the economy hits rock bottom.

What if gasoline prices were to sky rocket due to further terrorism? In the last two years oil has gone from $55.00 a barrel to $103.00 per barrel. What if in the next 6 months oil hits $200.00 a barrel. Would and could that affect the trucking industry and could that affect each and every American?

What if weather patters continue to worsen and crops losses are high? What if there is another major attack against this country or we are further drawn into war with Iran or another nation? What if the economic corporate structure of this country were to worsen and jobs became harder to find than they already are and even worse, jobs ceased?

There are numerous things that could happen that could affect us all, and they could happen slowly or instantly.

The reason that I have posted this post is not to instill fear, but to share the fact that we should be prepared, and store up provision for the just in case. Daniel through a dream from God was positioned to be a part of storing provision for a coming drought in the land. Are we facing a coming drought in the land, a economic meltdown as some are predicting.

Everyday we use things. Yet picture those things not being available or not having the finances to purchase them. From food, to cleaning needs, to family medications and so on. From the least most important things to the everyday must have things. We all know what it�s like to be out of toothpaste, toilet paper, and short on food. What if the house became bare of these things? How would we survive?

What of our children�s needs? Would we be prepared? What of our relatives needs? Would we be able to help?

Do we not see the rise of the homeless right before our eye�s? Do we not see and understand how fragile things have become, how they are balancing on a fine line?

Make provision for the just in case. Because the just incase could become reality.

The Seriousness Of God

God Took You Seriously

People give their lives to Jesus Christ for many reasons. Some need physical or emotional healing; others are in search of peace and forgiveness. Whatever our condition, God meets us in the valley of our need. Indeed, the Lord reveals Himself to man as heaven's answer for our needs. He is a father of the fatherless and a judge for the widows. He even makes a home for the lonely and leads out the prisoners into prosperity (Ps. 68:5-6).

God uses our need to draw us to Christ.

Yet, the consciousness of our need narrows our revelation of God, limiting His activity in our lives to the boundaries of our struggles. Thus, many Christians never awakened spiritually to the deeper call of God, which is to attain the likeness of Christ. We are forgiven, healed and blessed, but we experience a ceiling on our spiritual growth.

Regardless, the Spirit of God remains committed to our personal transformation. If we should awakened spiritually to the vision of Christlikeness, the attention of God will approach us in a unique and powerful way. Indeed, two things will occur: one, we will read the Scriptures with revelation; Gods word will speak to us in a much deeper way as we discover the reason why we exist.

The second reality that will unfold is this: our lives will begin to progressively face greater challenges. You see, we think that just having a sincere desire to be like Jesus is itself an attainment, and it is. But it is only a beginning. If we are serious about our transformation, God becomes serious in fulfilling our quest. He will place us in situations that are designed to kill our old nature, often compelling us to Christlikeness just to survive the battle.

Consider the heroes you have studied in the Bible: each faced great conflicts before they reached certain spiritual levels, and they often experienced greater conflicts after they enjoyed important breakthroughs. Look at what Joseph experienced before he attained his destiny. Or consider what David had to conquer before he became king. God is not squeamish about testing our character. His goal is to create in us the very life of Jesus.

Consider what Jesus faced at the Jordan River. First, He was empowered by the Holy Spirit. We would think this Spirit empowering would launch Christ into His public ministry, but instead He is driven by the Spirit into the wilderness. Why? The Bible says, to be tempted [or tested] by the devil. For forty days Jesus fasted and prayed. At the end of this time, we might expect a great spiritual breakthrough, but the opposite actually occurred. In fact, the first supernatural being who appeared to Jesus after His fast was not God, but the devil.

Three times the character of Jesus was tested by Satan himself. Most of us are familiar with the story of Christ in the wilderness (Matt. 4:1�11), but remember: Jesus faced all three of these temptations without having eaten for forty days. In weakness, the tests grew more intense. And here is my point. If we are serious about personal transformation, we will soon realize that when we pass a test, life does not necessarily become easier. In fact, what occurs is that we soon graduate into something more difficult. And it is here, in the more difficult test, that our quest for Christlikeness is being answered.

Perhaps you are facing conflict that seems beyond your understanding. You ask, Why am I in this battle? What did I do to deserve this conflict? It is possible that the whole reason for your increased warfare is that you prayed, sincerely, "Father, I want to be like Jesus." God took you seriously. by Francis Frangipane http://frangipane.org

Love Of Christ Shed Forth

Love, love, love. It is the greatest gift. We were created to love, to be loved, and to experience love. There is no greater love, than the love of Christ shed forth into the heart and soul. God is a God of relationships, and a God of love.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son Jesus to die for the sins of the world. That is Passion! When Christ died on the cross at Calvary, Christ revealed not only the Love of God the Father, but His love also, the love of Christ for humanity.

THE LOVE OF CHRIST

Rom 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Rom 8:36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Rom 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Rom 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

Rom 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Love Is

Be a light for Christ by reaching out to others in love, and blessing them as the love of Christ is manifested and flowing through you. Through love, we all can make a difference.
