Et,i see that you believe Yeshua NEEDS you to be doing something for Him.
I do not believe that.
What you do,is it for Yeshua or FROM Yeshua..
I believe yours is for Yeshua.
I will wait upon Yeshuas time,for the good work He has prepared in advance to bring me to.
As far as witnessing,AGAIN you neither know me,nor walk in my shoes.
So stop assuming you not me whereabouts and happenings.
Remember this great qoute be Felix Unger.
When you assume things about me,you are making an A-S out of you and me.
Shalom

GEORGE!!! there is nobody on here PROUD ENOUGH to think JESUS NEEDS US!!! its obserd that you even say that! He doesnt need us but our work in the kingdom is important! Certainly Jesus is God and therefor needs no person to relly do anything!
This is where you get into trouble, by thinking we are all idiots see you think we are just allignorant stupid heads that dont realize our own insignifacne but we do! We also realize what we are commanded and expected to do!
Its like me asking my child to help me out! Certainly I dont need her to do it, I cando it all by myself, most the time if she washed dishes I have to go behind her and do it over anyway! I am sure the Lord we does my work too! He at the very least has to ad to it ..BUT I LOVE MY DAUGHTER AND EVERYTIME SHE DOES LITLE TASKS SHE LEARNS FROM IT AND THATS THE POINT!!
I would venture to say 100% of the things we are asked to do whether it be witnessing or ministering or just like me scrubbing the florrs and toilets in my church also EVERY SINGLE COMMANDMENT they are all for me not GOD he tells me to pray but am I proud or dumb enough to think he needs my prayer? certainly not, he loves me and Iknow that he wants to hear from me but he doesnt need my prayer and he certainly doesnt need me to read and study that all for my sake! what about thou shall not commit adultry?? Is that for God ?? no its for me to keep from being hurt and hurting others! It is a commandment to keep my from breaking my marrige vows and ruining a marrige that will someday down the line also screw up my kids life and make me wish I had never divorced but had made it work in spite of my flesh (i did not get divorced on the count of adultry BTW) He knows what we need, and when I witness to someone even if I never see them again and the never get saved I am edified and feeel good! sometimes I realize afterwards almost instantly afterwards that I was talking to myself the whole time!
My point is this DUH GREAT OLE BIG GIANT DUG GEORGE ET AND I BOTH KNOW JESUS DONT NEED US!! good grief
He said he can raise up chidren of abraham out of stones!! He can do the same thing with Christians PJ I am not reliegouse , yes the work must be done but he dont neeeedddd meeeee to do it! He could raise uo stones to be a witness for him! Thats all I am saying, not saying that in order for Gods plan to continue that he dont need someone to do that part rather I am saying he created me anI am doing it, but if I did not do it@ He can raise up stones to it.. Jesus dont need me!
And on top of that is it Jesus really that needs the gps[el preached? What is he beinifiting from that? No its the people beomg [reached tp tjat need it. Jesus gould go on up to heaven and say well I tried but heck with em anyway!
Whats he got to lodr by doimg that? So he does not NEED me he just chooses yp a;;pw me to help because it helps me grow
'I will wait upon Yeshuas time, for the good work He has prepared in advance to bring me to."
There is always work for the kingdom....
1 Sam. 12:23 "Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:"
Hos. 7:7 "They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that called unto me."
James 4:2 "�ye have not, because ye ask not."
Even Y-shua got upset when the disciples fell asleep and could not "terry" one-hour in prayer.
I sin greatly in this area... my mother wakes up at 5:00Am and prays until like 7 or 8 Am...
I think that is just her calling... but the point is even (the most powerful thing we can do) is prayer...
We are always called at all times if nothing else to pray. Pray for our leaders, PRAY FOR ISRAEL, pray for people, especially there salvation!!!!!
Really PJ??? then why are we in the times of the gentile? why are we (christians) his chosen if in fact he wont changes his mind? were we first his chosen? or was it first israel? He can raise up stones that dont mean he will! and God has changed his mind before! but Jesus does not need me personaly PJ he doesnt he loves me desires me to be a vessel for him but he does not need me, I dont see why thats even an issue! Why should we even begon to think God would need us! NO WAY he is GOD for goodness sakes! IF he called PJ to do something and PJ dont then he can create comeone else that will, sorta like Israel and the Gentiles! come on now GOD DONT NEED US
This Psalm is about knowing YHWH,yet to be knowing Him a person needs to spend time with Him.
Psa 46:1 To the chief musician. For the sons of Korah; A song. For the Virgins. God is our refuge and strength, very much found to be a help in distresses.
Psa 46:2 On account of this we will not fear when the earth changes and when mountains are slipping into the heart of the seas.
Psa 46:3 Let its waters foam; let the mountains shake in its swelling. Selah.
Psa 46:4 There is a river, its channels gladden the city of God, the holy tabernacles of the Most High.
Psa 46:5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be shaken; God will help her at the turning of the morning.
Psa 46:6 The nations roared; kingdoms were shaken; He gave forth His voice and the earth melted.
Psa 46:7 Jehovah of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is a refuge for us. Selah.
Psa 46:8 Come, behold the works of Jehovah, who sets ruins on the earth,
Psa 46:9 causing wars to cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts apart spears; He burns the chariots in the fire.
Psa 46:10 Be still and know that I am God! I will be exalted among the nations; I will be exalted in the earth.
Psa 46:11 Jehovah of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is a refuge for us. Selah.
Many people are rushing around 'TRYING' to be doing 'MINISTRY',for this is what they have been told what a christian is about.
Yet what did Yeshua tell Martha when she was all about "TRYING' to do 'MINISTRY'.
Luk 10:38 And as they went on, it happened, He also entered into a certain village. And a certain woman, Martha by name, received Him into her house.
Luk 10:39 And to this one was a sister being called Mary, who also was sitting alongside, at the feet of Jesus, and heard His Word.
Luk 10:40 But Martha was distracted about much serving. And coming on she said, Lord, is it not a care to You that my sister left me alone to serve? Then tell her that she should help me.
Luk 10:41 But answering Jesus said to her, Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
Luk 10:42 But there is need of only one; and Mary chose the good part, which shall not be taken from her.
What does Yeshua say to us.
Mat 11:28 Come to Me, all those laboring and being burdened, and I will give you rest.
Mat 11:29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, because I am meek and lowly in heart, "and you will find rest to your souls." Jer. 6:16
Mat 11:30 For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.
Am i listening to what men tell me,OR am i listening to Yeshua speak to me by his Holy Spirit within me.
Eph 2:8 For by grace you are saved, through faith, and this not of yourselves; it is the gift of God;
Eph 2:9 not of works, that not anyone should boast;
Eph 2:10 for we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God before prepared that we should walk in them.
There is a time for everything,YET how do we spend with Yeshua each day.
Not 'HOW MUCH' time we spend with him.
Shalom

ps
PJ,your god might need you,because He is not Omnipotent,Omnipresent,nor Omniscient;thus He cannot be Soveriegn.
My ABBA is Omnipotent,Omniscient,Omnipresent,and He is the Sovereign over His entire creation.
Elisha, pj is a good example of God's will and Man's free will. My God is Almighty God ruler and creator of everything. pj's god needs his help in his work, his salvation, and everything his god does. Man's pride keeps him from the blessed love of the God of the bible. Pride is it's own god.
I think what PJ is sayin is thee are things that God has for us to do and these things need doing! But he certainly doesnt have to personaly have me to do it! and on top of that He is God he can if he wants to raise up stones he said he could! So he may not decidie to do that becasue he made his mind up already but he can if he wants to by all means he is God!
In addition all of this is to no effect becasue God knows the begining from the end so whether he needs me or not doesnt matter because he knows for sure he has ne and heknows for dure who the world has! So the point of is he needs is is mute! Just to clear it up!
But my all mighty all powerful God he may be using me, BUT HE DOES NOT NEED ME!! I NEED HIM
