Repin' For The Lord Ministries - Cowboy Church

This page is for words given to us for the body of Christ and for testimonies of people who have been touched by our ministries. Testimonies are vital for the body. In Revelation 19:10 it says "... For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." Some meanings of testimony is; evidence in support of a fact or proof, a public declaration, or a declaration by a witness. Revelation 12:11 talks about those who overcame by the word of their testimony. Our great forefathers of the bible knew the value of testimonies and how important it was to remember God's goodness. By declaring our own testimonies it gives people hope that if God did it for them then He can do it again. We can lay ownership to those testimonies and make them a prophetic word for us just like Revelation 19:10 says. Then we take those words and we wage the good warfare through prophecies that we have received. " This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare." 1 Timothy 1:18.

So if you have been touched in anyway by our ministry please send us your testimonies. Remember no victory is too small! If you had victory then it is a testimony and someone else might need that same victory and will need to see that God still does and still can move in that situation!! Be blessed!!!

Thank you again. Set on Fire for Him, Laurie

I want to share a word of encouragement with you that if we put it into action it will
continue to change our lives.

Romans 10:17 says, "Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God". Say that
again to yourself out loud. Hebrews 11:6 says, "But w/out faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to
please God, for he who comes to God MUST believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of
those who diligently seek HIm." So according to these two scriptures faith is not only
important, but it is vital to us.

Our faith in God needs to be unshakeable, and we cannot have unshakeable faith w/out
getting to know and trust HIM. Abraham had nothing but God's Word to trust and guide his
life. Romans 4:20-21 says that "...staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief;
but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; and being FULLY persuaded that what He
promised, He was able also to perform..." We need to build that unshakeable confidence in
our lives that whatever comes at us in our daily lives, we can face w/ God knowing He is
able to perform His Word in our lives the same as Abraham.

God's Word needs to be a living thing in and through us, and we do this through keeping
His Word in the forefront of our thinking. Our faith and confidence in Him will bring
supernatural help and blessing to our lives and to others around us. We are to influence
our world around us.

Part 2

the Bible says that...
"this is the confidence we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He
hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the
petitions that we have asked of Him." I John 5:14-15
So what is God's will? I don't think you can separate God's will and His Word. Right? So
w/ that in mind, if we asks anything according to God's Word, we can have confidence that
we will have it.

One problem though. We have an enemy that comes to steal, kill and destroy. That's found
in John 10:10. The other part of John 10:10 is,..." but I (Jesus is talking because it is
in red letters) have come that you might have life and life more abundantly." Now, which
of these two things would you rather put your confidence in?

The "..stealing, killing and destroying" comes through us not believing and having
confidence in what Jesus says over what the devil says. Jesus said in John 8:44, " You
are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He (the
devil) was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there
is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a
liar and the father of it." After reading that, how many of us want to chose God's Word
over the lies of the devil?

God wants good for us. His ways are the ways of life, so I think we need to be about our
Father's business and fight to keep our unshakeable confidence in Him, Amen?

I was thinking of our 'unshakeable confidence' this morning, and it seemed the Lord was
saying that confidence in Him comes through trusting Him in the midst of the storms as
well as in the calm times. Actually, when we plant the Word in our hearts during the
peaceful times, all we are doing is preparing for when the rough times come.

Romans 13:14 says this: "But put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make NO provision for the
flesh to fulfill its lusts." We need to be ready for the schemes of the devil as his food
is our fleshly desires. When we submit to the Lord through His written Word then it
becomes living in us through our choices to yield to Him, and the devil has no place in
us.

If our confidence is in God's Word then when the enemy comes, he'll find no place in us
to get hold of. Romans 14:13 "But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make NO provision for
the flesh to fulfill its lusts."

Unshakeable confidence comes through practice. The testing of of faith produces the fruit
of patience, and when let patience grow, we will be perfect, and complete, lacking
nothing. Read it for yourself in James 1:2-4.

As I was watching a Christmas movie late last night, something in me jumped. I heard
this phrase ring loud and clear, " Good things come to those who believe" !!! It went off
like a firecracker. Good things do come to those who believe!!!!!!! That is our promise!!
I almost started screaming those words. If my family hadn?t been sleeping , probably
would have. Part of me wanted to wake all of them up and tell them, "GOOD THINGS COME TO
THOSE WHO BELIEVE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love to study definitions of words. Good means: Having the qualities that are
desirable or distinguishing in a particular thing, serving the desired thing or purpose
or end, superior to average, of high quality, worthy of respect, honorable, attractive,
beneficial to health, complete, reliable, sure, valid or true, genuine, real, in effect,
operative, able to continue, advantage, saintliness. Now that is a definition!! All this
basically describes the promises of God!! As Kenneth Copeland calls it THE BLESSING!

Believe comes from the verb form of faith: It means to trust in, have faith in, be fully
convinced of , rely on and adhere to.

Faith is the ministering servant sent forth to bring back our blessing. When I got
revelation of this phrase I felt something inside of me grow. I felt like my heart had
been enlarged and I literally felt something being lifted off of me. I felt like I was
floating, because there was no weight to hold me down.

This is a season that represents a joyous occasion, our Saviour's birth. But God started
showing me that it also represents something else. It represents a season of new birth. A
season for prophecy's fulfillment. Something must have taken place in all of Israel in
that time. Something got God's attention after all those years of silence. I believe it
was those who believed, who behind closed doors never gave up, adhering to the promises
and prophecies of God. That God saw their faith and brought forth a birth that would
cause a new season of perpetual hope to be loosed into all of the earth.

It is our season of new birth. That which we have been believing for small or big to
come forth. Prophecies to be fulfilled during this time. That the ability to continue,
the advantage, revelation of sainthood, everything worthy of respect or honor is being
bestowed on those who believe. To believe not wavering. Allowing joy to be our strength
and allowing our spirit of have the controlling factor over all reactions. That this
season we will learn to lay down all fear, doubt and take up the mantle of faith and that
we start allowing it to move on our behalf and instead of us controlling us.

It is a new season to break forth in unity. On the day of Pentecost it says that the
spirit fell because they were of one mind and one heart. The Moravians had this
revelation. They laid down their own desires and selfishness picking up the heart of God
for one another and on August in 1727 the spirit fell on a church the caused a 100 year
revival. We want to see the spirit fall but yet we can't lay down our own pride to see
the one sitting next us better themselves. No, there is no greater love than the one who
lays down their live for another. Meaning dying to the flesh. Jesus did this for us!!
But He did this with joy. He put himself through everything and did not complain once.
He saw into the future seeing our grumbling about our circumstances and each other and
yet still saw us not there but in the further future seated in higher places. He did this
so that we might all be one as He and the Father. Every great movement like the Moravians
has to start with love, honor and unity. A house divided will not stand.

This season I feel we are to ask the Lord to open our hearts and minds to areas that need
weeding, put it under the blood and go forth with a sound of CHARGE!! This is the season
to advance! Put a guard on our hearts and mouths. Discipline our minds to only go on a
trail of praise and thankfullness and allow only those things to come out of our mouths.
This is the key to open heavens and good things!! Make a list of all that we are
believing forth and just praise God that the fulfillment of that list is done IN THE NAME
OF JESUS!!! Remember it is the season of new birth and prophecy fulfillment. It is our
season that the kings of men will come and lay gifts at our feet because we our worthy in
Christ.
