THANKS-LIVING part 1 of 2

 THANKS-LIVING part 1 of 2 by Keith Cook


For the next two days I want to lead you in a time of thanks to God. Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy your time with your friends and family. God is with you.


1. THANK GOD BY GIVING HIM CREDIT FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE


"Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people." 1 Chronicles 16:8


Pride leads to claiming credit for things we have not done or earned. Let Jesus have the glory in all that He has done for you. He has given life, health, security, provisions, and peace.


2. THANK GOD IN SONG


"And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto the LORD; because he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the LORD, because the foundation of the house of the LORD was laid." Ezra 3:11 


A cheerful heart is a blessing. Downcast and bitter lives bring defeat and sorrow. Praise and honor your Christ by your words, expressions, and even with a joyful song.


3. THANK GOD IN THE MARKETPLACE


"Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name." Psalms 18:49,  2 Samuel 22:50


Give Him credit for success and favor. The unbeliever or even the backslider that you work with needs to be reminded that God gives and God takes away. They need your positive expression of your faith and your constant admission and reminder that Jesus is directing your life. You are the best advertisement that most of your peers will ever see for a real Christian. Reflect all of Him.


4. THANK GOD UNTIL THE END


"To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever." Psalms 30:12

 

Never stop thanking God. Thank Him all through your life. Not just when you are young or when you are in success. Thank Him in every way, every day.


5. THANK GOD BY CELEBRATING COMMUNITY WITH OTHER BELIEVERS


"I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee among much people." Psalms 35:18


Going to church and to Christian events helps you grow in Christ. You also help the faithful by your presence. You may inspire many people, both young and old. Do not give in to the temptation to go it alone. We are called to work and worship with others. It honors God when we do.


6. THANK GOD BY SHARING WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR YOU


"O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people." Psalms 105:1


Make sure you ask God for the desires and needs of your life. Do not be afraid to talk with God about every area of your life. Let Him in on the small things. Do not be afraid of letting others know how kind and good following Jesus really is. God wants to work on your behalf.


7. THANK GOD FOR HIS GOODNESS AND MERCY


"Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever." Psalms 106:1


God's hand of mercy is on us all the days of our lives. Thank Him for sparing you from danger and directing your steps. He has been good to you. Do not forget all that He does for you. The air you breathe, the family you have, the skills you have been given are all from God.


8. THANK GOD FROM HOLINESS


"Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence." Psalms 140:13


In order to really thank God you have to be living for Him in your public and private life. Live Holy and you will have much to thank God for. Live for self and in sin and you will forfeit most of your benefits in Christ.


9. THANK HIM EVEN WHEN IT MAY COST YOU


"Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime." Daniel 6:10


There are going to be times when your desire to serve and praise God will cost you. Even if serving God is politically or socially incorrect the command has been given to thank Him. Daniel knew the secret of thanking God in the midst of hard situations. He did not stop praising God even though the law said it was illegal.


10. THANK HIM WHEN YOU NEED A MIRACLE FOR WHAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR HAND


"And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude." Matthew 15:36


When you need God to come through for you make sure you look for the things He has given you. God often makes you be a part of the answer to your prayer. Your joy and thankfulness will be great when God allows you to see His mighty hand work through you.


11. THANK GOD FOR HIS VICTORY IN JESUS


"But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." 1 Corinthians 15:57


When you and Jesus show up in a situation you win. God will lead you in the victory you need over every situation. Thank Him for victory over sins, habits, situations, and needs. God has won, in Christ, a mighty victory. Positive thinking nor material prosperity have anything to do with victory. Victory comes from living in His victory all the time.


Daily Prayer Focus: Thank God for all He has given you today. 


On The Go Prayer Focus: The Families of the On The Go staff. Pray for their emotions, finances, safety, wisdom, and spiritual health.

Mystery of Evangelization

 Mystery of Evangelization by Keith Cook


"The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going." John 3:8


For nearly thirty years I have studied, read, dreamed, and done evangelism. I have seen almost every fad and gimmick known to man on how to get people's attention, promote the message, and call for a decision for Christ. 


Every year it seems that the evangelism section of my local Christian bookstore gets smaller and the emphasis given to evangelism by local churches, associations, denominations, and mission boards seems less emphatic. While this amazes me, it is not a mystery. I understand human nature. I am a student of history. People can "do church" without doing evangelism. Real evangelism takes risk, vision, insight, leading, and heart.


There is a Mystery to evangelism.(1) The Spirit moves as He sees fit. I often tell churches and crusade audiences that I do not bring revival in my suitcase. Revival and life breaks out in the strangest places and in the strangest ways.


There is Mystery in what Happens when the Spirit moves. You never really know what someone can do under the direction of the Holy Spirit until He actually invades the life and actions. When the Spirit moves often there are tears of joy or tears of pain. Rejoicing and combating, going out to do God's will and allowing God to direct. It is a mystery, but a mystery worth following.


There is Mystery in that God can use us to do His will. Is it not amazing that God would consider using us to spread His Message when He has angels and qualified individuals more holy and worthy than we are, yet, He still chooses to use us to share His love. It is amazing and confounding!


There is Mystery in what God allows to Happen. Why did 9/11 have to happen? Why does there have to be pain and suffering? Why did a dear servant of God die of cancer when they were doing so much good? Why does God bless one ministry with funding while others seem to have very little? Why did one man come to Christ at an early age and another on his deathbed? It is a mystery that requires faith and trust in God alone for our direction.


There is also a Mystery about the kind of evangelist God would have us all be. Before we can effectively do anything for God we must be something. 


We must be a true believer! 

We must be a person of integrity!

We must be a student of prayer and the Word!

We must be a servant of Jesus!


The right combination of servant-hood is to be and do at the same time. Be in Christ as you share Christ!


While it is a mystery that God can and will use us, it is in His Word that we are assured that He will use us if we will be obedient servants. Mysteriously serve Jesus with your life. Amaze your friends! Amaze yourself! Even amaze the Devil, keep him guessing as to what you will do next.


(1) Original idea for this outline came from my teaching series of lessons from the Worldwide Perspectives Materials by Meg Crossman, page 166. 


Daily Prayer Focus: Pray for Boldness and Courage as you actively seek opportunities to carry out the Great Commission.


On The Go Prayer Focus: On The Go's Performing Arts Team. Pray for our team as we minister through drama, puppets, interpretive dance, and music. Our Performing Arts Teams are made up of volunteers and On The Go staffers who travel around the USA to local churches and events sharing the Good News.

At Least Once

 At Least Once by Keith Cook


"Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." Matthew 5:13-16


The gospel of Jesus Christ is worth sharing. I personally believe everyone should hear the "Good News" at least once! Why not commit to do your part in sharing Christ with your friends and neighbors.


If you want to be successful in presenting Christ you should make sure you put forth your best effort. Make sure the Christ you are sharing is:


Presented Clearly - Easy to understand with language that speaks to the heart and mind.


Communicated Effectively - Shared with emotion, integrity, and with conviction.


Culturally Relevant - A message that meets real heartfelt needs.


Biblically Solid - The real message of Christ's love and plan for all mankind.


If you keep these four suggestions in mind you will be more successful in sharing Christ. If some people only have one opportunity to hear the message of Christ then you should make sure it is clear, effective, relevant, and Biblical. Take every opportunity to share Jesus. One day when you and all the people you have shared Christ with and who accepted Christ are in Heaven you will be glad you took the time and put forth the effort to be used of God in this way.


Daily Prayer Focus: Pray that God will open your eyes to the spiritual needs of those around you and for the opportunity to share Christ with someone today!


On The Go Prayer Focus: Keith Cook's Hands-On-Training Events. This is our Outreach Training School on the road. Keith and the On The Go Team share all across the USA and Worldwide in fun and creative ways that people can serve Jesus and make an impact in this generation!

Just Calm Down

 Just Calm Down by Keith Cook


"Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again."  Exodus 14:13


If you want Jesus to use you I would like to give you a simple way to relax and let God take control. The Lord will guide you if you just calm down.


Some simple ways to calm down are to:


1. Clear Your Mind - Clear

   Take your mind off outside distractions.  Focus on the task at hand

2. Make Your Heart Available - Available

   Let the Holy Spirit have your heart.  Be available to His leading all throughout the day.

3. Have A Loving Spirit - Loving

   Let the Love of Jesus control you.  Pour out His love on the world.


4. Maintain A Ministering Mindset - Ministering

   Look for opportunities to minister all day long. Don't say "Should I minister" but "How can I minister."


Calm down and minister for Jesus today. It will do you good.


Daily prayer focus: Relax today and seek God's doors of service.


On The Go Prayer Focus: On The Go Publications & Media Team. We are striving to saturate and minister to a contemporary culture and society through modern media.

Can Authorities Be Wrong?

 Can Authorities Be Wrong? by Keith Cook Jr. and Keith Cook Sr.


"Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls..." Jeremiah 6:16


Many times the church and individual Christians have had to stand up and be counted in the midst of great opposition and even persecution. Lessons from the past can prepare us for the struggles of our future. If we learn from the past we may even be able to avoid the horrible consequences of letting evil men and women control entire communities with Godless laws and immoral rulings.


Politicians, teachers, mayors, school boards, and even pastors can all be wrong. These governmental and community reigns of terror can be avoided if Christians will pray and seek God's will for their public and private lives. Being involved and taking a public stand can help move people in a Godly direction.


Karl Barth was one of the most significant Protestant theologians of the twentieth century. He said "Jesus Christ, such as Scripture bears witness of Him for us, is the one Word of God the we must hear, the Word we must trust, and the Word we must obey in life and death." It is obvious that he was so actively opposed to horrible treatment of the Jews during WWII. He felt so strongly that he was "dismissed from a teaching post in Bonn for refusing to salute or show loyalty to Hitler."


Dietrich Bonhoeffer was also an advocate on behalf of the Jews. His opposition helped many Jews to escape into Switzerland. He helped members of the military resistance draft memoranda on a future democratic government should the regime be toppled. After many years of struggle against Hitler he was arrested and hanged in the concentration camp at Flossenburg on April 9,1945. His death showed that he was willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice so that God could work through his life to help the Jewish people.


Among the Catholics there were still a few who could not stand by and let innocent people be killed. One man, Father Litchenbuerg, was one that refused to be silent. "He had publicly spoken out against Nazi policies, ending each Mass with prayers for intercession on behalf of the Jews. Litchenberg was eventually arrested and served 2 years of penal servitude, upon his release he was arrested again and died on route to Dachau.


These people and their Churches helped countless numbers of Jewish people as they were trying to flee the country. These and so many more that we may never know about took on the call to action and decided that they could not watch the Nazi's take over not only the Jewish people's lives but the lives of the Christian church as well. It is impossible to realize how many were affected by the actions of these Godly people in their effort to save the Jewish people from their persecutions.

Daily prayer focus: Pray that you will have the courage to stand up and serve Jesus and your fellow man even if it is not politically correct or profitable.


On The Go Prayer Focus: The physical, spiritual, emotional, and financial needs of people hurting all over the United States and Worldwide. As God gives us opportunity in times of crisis we need to rapidly move to help.

Should We Stand Against Injustice?

 Should We Stand Against Injustice? by Keith Cook Jr. and Keith Cook Sr.


"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." John 8:32


Throughout the rise of Nazism in the 1930's there were many who opposed the movement led by Adolf Hitler. Churches along with many individuals stood up for the Jewish people while they were being brutally persecuted. "Nazism infiltrated the Protestant Churches under the banner of the German Christians (Deutsche Christen) movement. The "German Christians" sprang up throughout protestant parishes. The organization advocated the creation of an "Aryan Paragraph" in church synods that would prevent non-aryans (Jewish converts) from participating, ministering, or teaching within the churches. However, there were some church officials who opposed the movement."(1) Some of the churches involved in the resistance against the Nazi's were the "Confessing Church". By resisting to Hitler's plan they were faced with severe persecution. This however never stopped them from standing up for Jews while saving many of their lives in the process.


The Confessing Church was started by Martin Niemoller after he developed the Pastors' Emergency League in 1933. This league was developed after Niemoller realized that Hitler was indenturing the Gospel with the Nazi ideology.


Niemoeller said, "First they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists, and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me and there was not one left to speak for me!"


His early passivism is what drove him to start the Pastors' Emergency League because he had stood by long enough. Niemoeller began this emergency league because he saw that many churches were taking oath with Hitler. He could not confess his oath to Hitler because he did not feel that it would be what Jesus would do if he were in the same position. The Pastors' Emergency League soon became the Confessing Church that had very prominent members who also vowed to stand opposed to the Aryan law. Some of the most predominant members were Karl Barth and Dietrich Bonhoeffer.


In our time it is also important for us to stand up for those who can not stand up for themselves. (The poor, the battered, the neglected, and even those of other religions who are being persecuted.) It is the Christian thing to do. It is the right thing to do. It is what Jesus would have us do.


If we see someone throwing a brick through a Muslim's shop we should stop them. If we see someone abusing someone because of their race or sexual practices, we should confront them with the error of their ways. If we can not persuade them to stop then we may be forced to report them to those in our community who can. We may actually one day be called upon to stop injustice or fight for what we know is right.


A vocal church can often stop uninformed masses if they speak with one voice and speak clearly the message of Christ. But even if the whole Christian community does not rise up at injustice, you can. Jesus led his small band of believers to turn the world upside down. He can do the same thing through you.


1. Cleef, Ron Van, "Lights in the Darkness: Resisters to the Nazi Regime" [work on-line],1997, (accessed 3 October 2009); available from http://hometown.aol.com/baronvanc/christa.htm, or http://web.archive.org/web/20061006090121/hometown.aol.com/baronvanc/christia.htm; internet.


Daily prayer focus: Pray for courage to always do the right thing in the face of injustice.


On The Go Prayer Focus: On The Go's Neighborhood Outreach Program. In reality, very little is being done to reach people in many communities across the USA. On The Go is striving to train local Christians and help them develop programs that can systematically and permanently reach real needs in their neighborhoods.

Christians Are Back In The Lions Den

 Christians Are Back In The Lions Den by Keith Cook


"But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was delivered from the lion's mouth. The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen." 2 Timothy 4:17, 18


Recently, the liberal press and left-wing fanatics are tearing up the airways and presses trying to destroy Christians and people of faith. Like a gagged lion they are striking out at anyone who comes near. Their venom and anger does not seem to have an end. They are attacking Christians, Conservatives, Southerners, Religious, Hispanics, Blacks, Whites, Rich, Poor, Soldiers, Republicans, Talk Show Hosts, and on and on it goes.


I have included quotes from other sources to help point out how serious the problem really is. It is amazing that intelligent, educated, social people can come unglued so fast. So many people are so mad at God and His standards that they cannot stand to be confronted with their sin, short coming, ignorance, or needs. "All have sinned" not just poor uneducated southerners!


Garry Wills writes in the New York Times, "Can a people that believes more fervently in the Virgin Birth than in evolution still be called an Enlightened nation?" He ends by saying that "moral zealots" will scare moderate Republicans with their "jihads". (William Donohue)


The Washington Post's E.J. Dionne swung wildly at windmills blasting away at the "exploitation of strong religious feelings" and the "radical efforts to destroy the achievements of progressive government." (Joe Scarborough)


The New York Times, Gary Hart proclaims, "There is a disturbing tendency to insert theocratic principles into the vision of America's role in the world." (William Donohue)


DeWayne Wicham of USA Today, "Putting God in the public square runs the risk of turning our democracy into a theocracy."


Ellen Goodman, with the Boston Globe, says people like her "don't want their country racked by the fundamentalist religious wars we see across the world." (William Donohue)


Author Barbara Ehrenreich, said we are polarized because of "Christian fundamentalism."


Cynthia Tucker, editorialist at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, blames "black churchgoers" for using the Bible "as a bludgeon" against gays, saying "homophobia" now "oozes across lines of color".


Catholic League president William Donohue says that examples, taken from today's newspapers and Internet sites, prove we need to build more asylums.


(Quotes are from the internet - thanks to William Donohue, The Catholic League, Joe Scarborough, and others)


Jesus said that we would be persecuted, so cheer up. We are!


When does it ever feel good to be picked on? Never, but we have a great example of what to do when picked on. Jesus should be our guide and example.


What would Jesus do?


1. He would forgive them - because He is love not hate.

2. He would try to heal them - anger, pain, rejection, fear, and uncertainty are all signs of spiritual needs.

3. He would not strike back at them - the created is still rebelling against it's creator.

4. He would try to bless them - if they would let Him.

5. He would let them spitefully use Him - but still defeat them. God will ultimately triumph over evil and rule and reign. His death on the cross sealed sin's fate.

6. He would pray for them - pray for their enlightenment and understanding, pray for their eyes to be opened.

7. He would save them - if they called on His name to be saved.


What should we do?


1. Forgive those who act rude, curse us, or rail against God.

2. Let Jesus direct you to bring healing and hope to those who are hurting.

3. Turn the other cheek and refuse to lash out in anger. Demonstrate the love of Jesus.

4. Bless those who curse you and use you. Do something good for the ungodly.

5. Be strong enough to rise above petty differences and do what you know is right. Take a stand against sin, godless policies, and injustice.

6. Pray for all who do not know Christ or who are using religion with an ulterior motive.

7. Let Jesus use you to win them to Christ. Never close a door to making friends for Jesus. Look for open doors to share Jesus.


May God bless you and direct you as you go out to do His will.


This is the opinion of the writer. Not an official stand of On The Go Ministries.


Daily Prayer Focus: Pray for Unity in America. Pray that Christians will continue to stand up for their God Given Beliefs.


On The Go Prayer Focus: On The Go's GoKids Clubs. The focus of GoKids Clubs is to present a clear Gospel message to young children in our festivals, missions, and local neighborhoods. Pray for On The Go as we minister to boys and girls and share with them the love of Jesus Christ.
