KJV Scripture references

Hebrews 11:6

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.


Pastor Garry J. Anderson

BCUFam, this was a WORD! With all this uncertainty, turbulence, policy changes, disasters, food shortages and other situations happening, from the natural eye, these ARE scary, faith-testing times! We also know that because God tells us without faith, it is impossible to please Him, He rewards those who diligently seek Him, AND the size of our faith only needs to be the size of a grain of a mustard seed (Matthew 17:20) we can continue to put our trust the the Author and Finisher of our faith to take care of His people. Amen? Amen! Let’s pray!

Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank You, for the Word that has corrected, challenged, convicted, taught and has lifted us up! We pray that as we go through these turbulent times, that we will continue to put our faith and trust in You Jesus, who knows everything, rather than people who have limited knowledge. We thank You for meeting all of our needs, and keeping our hearts and minds stayed on You. For those who may not be saved, we thank You Jesus, for speaking to someone’s heart to repent and be baptized in the Name of Jesus for the remission of sins, and You filling them with the gift of Holy Ghost, with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues as outline in Acts chapters 1 and 2.

We thank You for the privilege and honor of serving and representing You in these end times, Jesus! Please continue to help us to be faithful servants, and we will continue to give You all the praise and glory! In Jesus name, we pray, Amen!

“Put your foot on it..” (Part 2)

Here there BCU Family!

  • Last time we were together, I shared part 1 of of the message, “Put your foot on it” by Bishop Jason Nelson.
  • The main theme of the message is that there is a blessing (and NO, not just material—that is not our focus) in being obedient to God’s intentional plan for our lives–and sometimes that means we need to leave the familiar and comfortable.
  • It’s time to start moving, BCUFam! Listen in!!!

Scripture reference:

  1. Now after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord it came to pass, that the Lord spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying,
  2. Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
  3. Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
  4. From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.
  5. There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
  6. Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
  7. Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
  8. This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
  9. Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” (Joshua‬ ‭1:1-9‬).

  • I attended the International Bibleway convocation a few weeks ago and one of the many highlights was a sermon preached by gospel recording artist Bishop Jason Nelson.
  • The main theme of the message is that there is a blessing (and NO, not just material—that is not our focus) in being obedient to God’s intentional plan for our lives–and sometimes that means we need to leave the familiar and comfortable.
  • The title of the message is “Put your foot on it” with the text from Joshua 1:1-9.

Scripture reference:

  1. Now after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord it came to pass, that the Lord spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying,
  2. Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
  3. Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
  4. From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.
  5. There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
  6. Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
