Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.


This scripture enforces one of the very basic instructions we have been given by our Lord,

"Love your neighbor as I have loved you".


God Bless.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.


Good ole' advice straight from the Holy Bible......... God Bless.

Be glad, people of Zion,
rejoice in the Lord your God,
for he has given you the autumn rains
because he is faithful.
He sends you abundant showers,
both autumn and spring rains, as before.

Good Mornin to all! Well my brothers stay is about over,He will be headed back to Florida Monday We have had a great 2 weeks getin caught up on all the memorys of yesterday. Hes in bad health but doin good for all that hes went through.God has given him another visit. Ya know theres one thing me and him has never talked about till this visit and thats dieing,We both said if one of us pass's away.Do not be sad and sit around and cry. just have a party with friends and family have a good time celebrating all the good times and memories we made throught the years,,,because in a very short time ,We will be together again with everyone else that we have Loved thats done went to heaven and is runnin around with Jesus ,Man how Awsome thats gona be!!!!!!!!!! Well lets go with todays message,,O yea forgot to tell ya ,,,My brother BOB is in the kitchen Fixin a big ole Fresh "Ham" were gona eat good today. First, Read How It All Turns Out!

“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” - Revelation 1:8

A boy was reading a murder mystery one day, and he became anxious about whether the heroine was going to live. To alleviate his anxiety, he read the last chapter and discovered that she survived!

Afterwards, when he read that the villain was planning a dastardly deed, he chuckled to himself and thought, “If you knew what I know, you wouldn’t be so haughty.”

Christians know the last chapter, and that helps us cope with the present. Indeed, the glories of the future can help dilute the sorrows of the present. The devil’s doom is pronounced in Genesis—and it’s executed in Revelation.We know the ending God Loves Yas ,,,We Love Yas,Have a Blessed Day,,,Your Friend In Christ ,,,From The Riverbottom ,,,Ron

Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.

Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.

AMEN!

Good Mornin Everyone! Im sorry I Missed some days putin somethin on here.I have no excuses and should of made time .My brother kept me going somewhere from the time we got up till the time we went to bed ,I should of put this first as God should always come first and foremost before anything else I let my LORD down.I will do better.My brother has went back to Florida yesterday.It was hard to see him go but he has family in Florida that loves him ..He told me at the airport as we said good bye,, "No cryin ,,No tears Were not sayin Goodbye,,Were sayin I'l See ya later. But ,I still shead a tear.BOB said Dont worry if the good Lord comes and takes us home we will be meetin again real soon. Hes an awsome brother .Lets get to todays messageWhere to find encouragement when you’re weary

Therefore,, Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.

Hebrews 12:1

I went to a retirement party for a friend of mine awhile back. Now, one thing I love about retirement parties is the fact that so many people gather together to reflect on one person’s impact. Stories were shared of how this person had encouraged and inspired others and helped them to not just be better workers, but better people.

As I sat and listened to story after story of how this man had inspired others, I couldn’t help but be reminded of the great cloud of witnesses described in today’s passage – those believers who’ve gone before us who cheer us on and encourage us as brothers and sisters in the faith.

One very clear example of this in my life is my pastor Mr Charles Schwabe, now retired,,,I always tell him ,,Thers 3 people in my life that I look up to and want to be like one of these days ,,Jesus Christ #1,,My DAD#2,, and Mr Charles ,Schwabe.Every time I think about him, I’m encouraged by the example he was, and is, to me today. It’s his example that very often gives me the encouragement I need when times get tough.

As we think about the believers who’ve gone before us, cheering us on and encouraging us in the great race of life, that should encourage us. So reflect on those examples of faithfulness, whether you knew them personally or not. They’re there to give you hope and strength to run the great race of life!

FIND ENCOURAGEMENT TO RUN THE GREAT RACE OF LIFE BY LOOKING TO THOSE WHO’VE GONE BEFORE YOU AND FOLLOWING THEIR EXAMPLE! God Loves Yas ,,We Love Yas,, Have a Blessed Day,,,Your Friend In Christ,,,from The Riverbottom Ron,,,Prayers for All

Hebrews 10:35-36

So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.

Hello every body! I hope yer havin a good day. A good day is always a good day When its a godly day... It Time to Refresh and Renew?

“Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation; and uphold me with Thy free Spirit.” - Psalm 51:10-12

So many people have the idea that being a Christian is like taking foul-tasting medicine—it tastes awful, but you know you’ll feel better one day.

They’re like the young man who prayed at a prayer meeting with few in attendance: “Oh God, be with us now, and help us while the rest of the people are out there having a good time.”

Do you ever feel that going to church or having a quiet time is like going to the dentist? Then you’re getting your satisfaction in life outside of a relationship with God. It’s time to spend some time in prayer and ask God to renew your spirit. Its time ! God Loves Yas ,,,We Love Yas, Have a Blessed Day Your Friend In Christ,,,From The Riverbottom,,,Ron ,,,Prayers sent for you all

My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.

Goooooooooooooood Moooooooooornin Evvvvvvvvvvveryone! I got up and watched the sun rise this mornin drinkin my coffee out on the deck.As I look up out of the Riverbottom the trees are startin to turn the pretty colors so it wont be long and the wind will be blowin and leaves falling..As I was setin out there this mornin a persons mind can sure go back in time and relive some awsome memories,those memorys are just one of those blessins that the Lord Jesus Christ gives us each day! Thank You Jesus ! Lets get to todays message Murmuring or Grateful?

“Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world.” - Philippians 2:14-15

Do you know the problem with many of us when we obey God? We murmur about it while we are doing it! And God is taking notes, because halfhearted obedience isn’t obedience at all. Remember, God is looking at the heart, not the deed (see 1 Samuel 16:7).

Do you know why we murmur? Because we’ve taken our eyes off Calvary. Jesus didn’t murmur on the way to the cross. Oh no. Do you thank God for the pains in life? Or only the gains?

Ephesians 5:20 says, “Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” God Loves Yas,,We Love Yas ,,Have a Blessed Day,,Your Friend In Christ,,,From The Riverbottom Ron Need Prayer ? Need anything ? just ask See yas tomorrow unless the Good Lord takes me home

Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness
because of my enemies—
make your way straight before me.
Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with malice.
Their throat is an open grave;
with their tongues they tell lies.
Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,
for they have rebelled against you.
But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield.


Pretty powerful scripture right there now....... God Bless and Amen.

Hello All! The weekend is here,Theres lots to get done and work to do for our Lord .When a person is doing things that needs done you can add Jesus to it at anytime . What ever it is your doing or saying just add Christ to it and you will see it is getin done better . Lets go to todays message. Our Unchanging Father

“But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” - 1 Corinthians 2:14

God made the mind of man. All true discoveries and all true knowledge in this world come from God. It is God’s Truth and we do not have to be afraid of it. But that doesn’t mean we are to casually stroll down the devil’s lane of godless philosophies.

God’s Truth doesn’t change like philosophies. Malachi 3:6a says, “For I am the Lord, I change not.” I don’t know whether that means anything to you, but it means an awful lot to me, dear friend.

The same God who loved us enough to put His Son on the cross two thousand years ago still loves us with that same love today. We don’t have to worry when we come to God in prayer that we might catch Him in a bad mood. Now, if that doesn’t start your motor, you don’t have one. and another thing when your startin that motor that battery will never go dead.It will always crank right up and run like it has a tuneup every time. God Loves Yas,, We Love Yas ,,Have a Blessed Day,, Your Friend In Christ,,,From The Riverbottom ,,,Ron Dont Ever Forget Riverbottom Ron Loves you as well ! Prayers for all

John 3:20-21

Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.

Hey everyone! I hope your all doin well and holdin hands with Jesus in your dailey walk in Life.With him in our lives weve nothin to fear ,and I mean nothin.This ole world is in Rough,Tough Times and it needs a Revival.All we can do is our part together.Some will see.some will keep the blinders on.Prayer for those ..Lets get to todays message. What Jesus Wants, More than Your Service

“God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” - 1 Corinthians 1:9

Discipleship is fellowship with Christ, knowing Christ, loving Christ, abiding in Christ.

I’m afraid that too many have joined the movement of Christianity rather than having surrendered to the man of Christianity. These people are doing things for Christ, rather than sitting at the feet of Christ.

Now, there’s nothing wrong with service, and we ought to serve God, but we need to learn that we must minister to Jesus Christ as His disciple before we can minister to others. Jesus values the time you spend with Him far more than the things you do for Him. Do you know that?

Before you head out this morning or go to bed tonight, make sure that you make a date with Jesus. The Lord is going to return soon with him in your heart and life . Those hurtin ole bones ,Those old blury eyes ,Those things that worry you,will be a thing of the past,No tears,No sorrow, No cryin Not a bad thing will every bother you again,,,When were in Heaven with our Lord,,,God Love Yas,,,We Love Yas,,, Have a Blessed Day ,,,Your friend In Christ,,,from The Riverbottom,,,Ron ,Prayers for you all

Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Good Mornin Its pretty nice here in the Riverbottoms this mornin.Lots of boats going in and out the road . Its the duckhunters doin there last minute work on there duckblinds getin ready for opening day.Some of those guys ,I have known for years and have hunted ducks with them many times...Well lets get to todays message Have to? Need to? Or WANT to?

“For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.” - 1 Corinthians 9:19

There are three reasons for obedience. A slave obeys because he has to. An employee obeys because he needs to. But a loving son obeys because he wants to.

So many of us live like slaves, when Jesus has said, “Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of My Father I have made known unto you” (John 15:15).

I don’t work for my salvation—that work has been done by my Lord. But I will work like any slave for the love of God. What about you? Ya know ,Workin for Jesus Christ is a different kind of work. I enjoy workin and doin things for him. the pay is awsome ! and you dont have to pay income taxs for what he gives you.{lol} The minute that I accepted Jesus Christ as my savior ,,I joined the richest family in the world ,,,,{ GODS FAMILY } and you dont have to be rich to get rich,,,Ask Jesus Christ into your life today, Every thing in your life has been paid for by HIM , Jesus The One Who Paid For It All ! God Loves Yous,, We Love Yas,, Have a Blessed Day,,, Your Friend In Christ,,,From The Riverbottom Ron Prayers sent for all
