10 Commandments For Christmas
by Greg Nemer
Click Here to Download and/or print the 10 Commandments for Christmas in a beautiful PDF format:
10 Commanndments For Chrsitmas (102)
 
1.Put God First at Christmas “Jesus is the Reason for the Season”
2. Have no idols. Don't let the busy season, or even Santa Claus, take your eyes off Jesus. Make time for family, friends, and gifts but God is always 1st
3. Honor God's name. Keep “Christ” in Christmas. Christmas is the perfect season to put on Christian Christmas music and gently witness to family/friends.
4. Honor the Sabbath day. Remember the 1st commandment and take time to rest. Don't skip church for family. Bring them with you!
5. Honor your parents by giving them gifts, spending time with them and visiting them. Choose to forgive if there is anything between you and your family.
6. Do not murder. Christmas is a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus and New Life in Christ. If you're angry with your brother, it is murder. Don't get stressed out, depressed or angry. Tempers flair when busy.  Keep calm and relaxed. Remember, God is in control.
7. Do not commit adultery. Adultery is more about lust. Don't lust over other people's possessions or life. Be satisfied and happy with the life you have, count your blessings and make “family” a priority during the Christmas season.

8. Do not steal. Make giving a priority. Remember God told us to think of the poor. People spend on their families and they forget to give to those less fortunate. Consider our Christmas project in the mountains of Chiapas. It's the end of the year and all gifts are tax-deductible.
9. Don't lie or speak evil of others. Make it a goal this year not to say a "bad word" about anyone...not even your President. Practice it for just 30 days.
10. Don't covet. Be satisfied with what you have. Put others first. This season is supposed to be about sharing and caring, but too many make it about what they get.
Jesus Summed Up These Commandments By Telling Us to Love God With All Your Heart and to Love Others

What do you do to overcome trials?
There is music playing in the City of Tuxtla Gutierrez, Chiapas.  Call it revival or at least call it special. It’s a grand concert with over 150 Pastors from local churches actually coming together in unity and meeting monthly in large gatherings. For the past few months, Pastor Jorge, whom I work with has been leading these mass gatherings in the city’s Municipal Auditorium called the Polyforum.
We’ve had some special guests who ministered. Among these were many Christian musicians, Jesse and Laura Rojas, Pastor Bruce Dumond and…  our daughter Cristi.
Yes, Cristi has ministered in the Polyforum playing the guitar and in song a few times.
One evening as she ministered using a soundtrack Cristi had to face a trial - As she was singing, the music stopped.
My question to you is “What do you do when the music stops?”
Here's how to find the answer to that question.
1. Scroll Down to watch the video below.
2. Read the rest of this article here:  http://www.reallifesuccess.com/when-music-stops
3.Download this months missions newsletter: coming soon
4. Be encouraged because there is hope:
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.  James 1:2-5

Here's 3 Videos (along with lyrics) about "King Jesus" that are sure to warm your heart  and give you goosebumps... and just imagine how Satan feels when he hears these chilling words of truth.
If you don't have time to watch them all , scroll down to where the 11 year boy delivers the powerful message.
That's My King Jesus - SM Lockridge

That’s My King by Dr. S.M. Lockridge
My King was born King.
The Bible says He’s a Seven Way King.
He’s the King of the Jews – that’s a racial King.
He’s the King of Israel – that’s a National King.
He’s the King of righteousness.
He’s the King of the ages.
He’s the King of Heaven.
He’s the King of glory.
He’s the King of kings and He is the Lord of lords.
Now that’s my King.
Well I wonder if you know Him.
Do you know Him?
Don’t try to mislead me.
Do you know my King?
David said the Heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament show His handiwork.
My King is the only one whom there are no means of measure can define His limitless love.
No far seeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His shore of supplies.
No barriers can hinder Him from pouring out His blessing.
Well, well, He’s enduringly strong.
He’s entirely sincere.
He’s eternally steadfast.
He’s immortally graceful.
He’s imperially powerful.
He’s impartially merciful.
That’s my King.
He’s God’s Son.
He’s the sinner’s saviour.
He’s the centrepiece of civilization.
He stands alone in Himself.
He’s august.
He’s unique.
He’s unparalleled.
He’s unprecedented.
He’s supreme.
He’s pre-eminent.
Well, He’s the loftiest idea in literature.
He’s the highest personality in philosophy.
He’s the supreme problem in high criticism.
He’s the fundamental doctrine of proved theology.
He’s the carnal necessity of spiritual religion.
That’s my King.
He’s the miracle of the age.
He’s the superlative of everything good that you choose to call Him.
Well, He’s the only one able to supply all of our needs simultaneously.
He supplies strength for the weak.
He’s available for the tempted and the tried.
He sympathizes and He saves.
He’s strong God and He guides.
He heals the sick.
He cleanses the lepers.
He forgives sinners.
He discharged debtors.
He delivers the captives.
He defends the feeble.
He blesses the young.
He serves the unfortunate.
He regards the aged.
He rewards the diligent and He beautifies the meek.
Do you know Him?
Well, my King is the key of knowledge.
He’s the wellspring of wisdom.
He’s the doorway of deliverance.
He’s the pathway of peace.
He’s the roadway of righteousness.
He’s the highway of holiness.
He’s the gateway of glory.
He’s the master of the mighty.
He’s the captain of the conquerors.
He’s the head of the heroes.
He’s the leader of the legislatures.
He’s the overseer of the overcomers.
He’s the governor of governors.
He’s the prince of princes.
He’s the King of kings and He’s the Lord of lords.
That’s my King.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That’s my King.
My King, yeah.
His office is manifold.
His promise is sure.
His light is matchless.
His goodness is limitless.
His mercy is everlasting.
His love never changes.
His Word is enough.
His grace is sufficient.
His reign is righteous.
His yoke is easy and His burden is light.
Well.
I wish I could describe Him to you, but He’s indescribable.
He’s indescribable.
Yes.
He’s incomprehensible.
He’s invincible.
He’s irresistible.
I’m coming to tell you, the heavens of heavens cannot contain Him, let alone a man explaining Him.
You can’t get Him out of your mind.
You can’t get Him off of your hands.
You can’t outlive Him and you can’t live without Him.
Well, Pharisees couldn’t stand Him, but they found out they couldn’t stop Him.
Pilot couldn’t find any fault in Him.
The witnesses couldn’t get their testimonies to agree.
Herod couldn’t kill Him.
Death couldn’t handle Him and the grave couldn’t hold Him.
That’s my King.
Yeah.
He always has been and He always will be.
I’m talking about He had no predecessor and He’ll have no successor.
There was nobody before Him and there’ll be nobody after Him.
You can’t impeach Him and He’s not going to resign.
That’s my King!
That’s my King!
Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory.
Well, all the power belongs to my King.
We’re around here talking about black power and white power and green power, but it’s God’s power.
Thine is the power.
Yeah.
And the glory.
We try to get prestige and honour and glory for ourselves, but the glory is all His.
Yes.
Thine is the Kingdom and the power and glory, forever and ever and ever and ever.
How long is that?
And ever and ever and ever and ever.
And when you get through with all of the forevers, then, Amen.

He always was, He always is, and He always will be...
Unmoved, Unchanged, Undefeated, and never Undone!
He was bruised and brought healing!
He was pierced and eased pain!
He was persecuted and brought freedom!
He was dead and brought life!
He is risen and brings power!
He reigns and brings Peace!
The world can't understand him,

The Pharisees couldn't confuse Him, and
The people couldn't hold Him!
Nero couldn't crush Him,
Hitler couldn't silence Him,

His ways are right, His word is eternal,
His will is unchanging, and His mind is on me.
He is my Redeemer, He is my Savior,
He is my guide, and He is my peace!
He is my Joy, He is my comfort,
He is my Lord, and He rules my life!
I serve Him because His bond is love,
His burden is light, and His goal for me is abundant life.
I follow Him because He is:
the wisdom of the wise,
the Power of the powerful,
the Ancient of days,
the Ruler of rulers,
the Leader of leaders,
the Overseer of the overcomers, and
the Sovereign Lord of all that was and is and is to come.
And if that seems impressive to you, try this for size:
His goal is a relationship with me!
He will never leave me,
never forsake me,
never mislead me,
never forget me,
never overlook me,
and never cancel my appointment in His appointment book!
When I fall, He lifts me up!
When I fail, He forgives!
When I am weak, He is strong!
When I am lost, He is the way!
When I am afraid, He is my courage!
When I stumble, He steadies me!
When I am hurt, He heals me!
When I am broken, He mends me!
When I am blind, He leads me!
When I am hungry, He feeds me!
When I face trials, He is with me!
When I face persecution, He shields me!
When I face problems, He comforts me!
When I face loss, He provides for me!
When I face death, He carries me Home!
He is everything for everybody, everywhere, every time, and every way.
He is God, He is faithful.
I am His, and He is mine!
My Father in heaven can whip the father of this world!
So, if you're wondering why I feel so secure, know and understand this . . .
God said it and that settles it. God is in control, I am on His side, and that means all is
well with my soul.
Everyday is a blessing because God is!
Aaron Jeoffrey-"He Is" King Jesus

A Message From Proverbs 3
My friend Jesse Rojas posted these 10 New Years Resolutions to his Facebook account. I went through them and modernized the terms using the Message Bible and posted the Resolutions on My Business Blog in a Message entitled "Don't Assume You know it All in 2011.
The Message Bible verse references are listed below this article.
10 New Years Resolutions for The Wise
Resolution 1- Let Love and Faithfulness Never Leave You

V 3-4
Resolution 2-  Trust in The Lord with All Your Heart

V 5-6
Resolution 3- Do Not Be Wise in Your Own Eyes

7  Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil.
8 This  will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.
Resolution 4- Honor The Lord With Your Wealth
9  Honour the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your  crops;
10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats  will brim over with new wine.
This starts with tithing - God’s Law of harvest.
Resolution 5 Do Not Despise The Lord's Discipline
11  My son, do not despise the LORD’s discipline and do not resent his  rebuke,
12 because the LORD disciplines those he loves, as a father the  son he delights in.
Resolution 6. Search Diligently For Wisdom and Find it
V 13-24
1. Wisdom comes from INFORMATION
2. KNOW-HOW- Knowledge is a key component of Wisdom
Resolution 7- Have No Fear
25  Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the  wicked,
26 for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot  from being snared.
Resolution 8- Do Not Withhold Good From Those Who Deserve It
27  Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your  power to act.
28 Do not say to your neighbor, “Come back later; I’ll  give it tomorrow” — when you now have it with you.
Resolution 9- Do Not Plot Harm Against Your Neighbor
29  Do not plot harm against your neighbor, who lives trustfully near you.
30 Do not accuse a man for no reason — when he has done you no harm.
Resolution 10 Do Not Envy a Violent Man or Choose His Ways
31  Do not envy a violent man or choose any of his ways,
32 for the LORD  detests a perverse man but takes the upright into his confidence.  inherit honour, but fools he holds up to shame.
Proverbs 3 (The Message)
Don't Assume You Know It All
1-2 Good friend, don't forget all I've taught you; take to heart my commands.
They'll help you live a long, long time,
a long life lived full and well.
3-4 Don't lose your grip on Love and Loyalty.
Tie them around your neck; carve their initials on your heart.
Earn a reputation for living well
in God's eyes and the eyes of the people.
5-6 Trust God from the bottom of your heart;
don't try to figure out everything on your own.
Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;
he's the one who will keep you on track.
 
7 Don't assume that you know it all. 
Run to God! Run from evil!
 
8. Your body will glow with health,
your very bones will vibrate with life!
 
9-10 Honor God with everything you own;
give him the first and the best.
Your barns will burst,
your wine vats will brim over.
 
11-12 But don't, dear friend, resent God's discipline;
don't sulk under his loving correction.
It's the child he loves that God corrects;
a father's delight is behind all this. 
13-24 The Very Tree of Life is Wisdom
13-18 You're blessed when you meet Lady Wisdom,
when you make friends with Madame Insight.
She's worth far more than money in the bank;
her friendship is better than a big salary.
Her value exceeds all the trappings of wealth;
nothing you could wish for holds a candle to her.
With one hand she gives long life,
with the other she confers recognition.
Her manner is beautiful,
her life wonderfully complete.
She's the very Tree of Life to those who embrace her.
Hold her tight—and be blessed!
19-20 With Lady Wisdom, God formed Earth;
with Madame Insight, he raised Heaven.
They knew when to signal rivers and springs to the surface,
and dew to descend from the night skies.
Never Walk Away
21-26 Dear friend, guard Clear Thinking and Common Sense with your life;
don't for a minute lose sight of them.
They'll keep your soul alive and well,
they'll keep you fit and attractive.
You'll travel safely,
you'll neither tire nor trip.
You'll take afternoon naps without a worry,
you'll enjoy a good night's sleep.
25-26 No need to panic over alarms or surprises,
or predictions that doomsday's just around the corner,
Because God will be right there with you;
he'll keep you safe and sound. 
27-28 Never walk away from someone who deserves help;
your hand is God's hand for that person.
Don't tell your neighbor "Maybe some other time"
or "Try me tomorrow"
when the money's right there in your pocket.
29-30 Don't figure ways of taking advantage of your neighbor
when he's sitting there trusting and unsuspecting.
 Don't walk around with a chip on your shoulder,
always spoiling for a fight.
31-32 Don't try to be like those who shoulder their way through life.
Why be a bully?
"Why not?" you say. Because God can't stand twisted souls.
It's the straightforward who get his respect. 
33-35 God's curse blights the house of the wicked,
but he blesses the home of the righteous.
He gives proud skeptics a cold shoulder,
but if you're down on your luck, he's right there to help.
Wise living gets rewarded with honor;
stupid living gets the booby prize.

12 Rules For Preachers by John Wesley - 2010-12-31 12:38:28-05

		function sbmgValidateFormPostPg2(name,email) { 
						var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgValidateFormPostPg2' + '_' + name);
						var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgValidateFormPostPg2' + '_' + email);
			var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/;
			var msg = '';
						if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n';
						if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required';
			if ( msg == '' ) return true;
			else alert(msg);
			return false;
		}
The following 12 rules for preachers are taken from John Telford’s The Life of John Wesley (Hodder and Stoughton, 1886), which is available online at the Wesley Center for Applied Theology at Northwest Nazarene University.
John Wesley (1703-1791) was one of the key leaders of the Evangelical Awakening in Britain during the mid-18th century.
Since so many people are setting goals at this time of the year I thought I'd share his rules or resolutions with you.
There's a rule for each month of the year but you would be wise to start applying them all today... 
1. Be  diligent. Never be unemployed. Never be triflingly employed. Never while  away time, nor spend more time at any place than is strictly necessary.
2. Be serious. Let your motto be, ‘Holiness to the Lord.’ Avoid all lightness, jesting, and foolish talking.
3. Converse sparingly and cautiously with women, particularly with young women.
4. Take no step towards marriage without solemn prayer to God and consulting with your brethren.
5.  Believe evil of no one unless fully proved; take heed how you credit  it. Put the best construction you can on everything. You know the judge  is always sup­posed to be on the prisoner’s side.
6.  Speak evil of no one, else your word, especially, would eat as doth a  canker; keep your thoughts within your own breast till you come to the  person concerned.
7.  Tell every one what you think wrong in him, lovingly and plainly, and  as soon as may be, else it will fester in your own heart. Make all haste  to cast the fire out of your bosom.
8. Do not affect the gentleman. A preacher of the Gospel is the servant of alL
9. Be ashamed of nothing but sin; no, not of clean­ing your own shoes when necessary.
10. Be punctual. Do everything exactly at the time. And do not mend our rules, but keep them, and that for conscience’ sake.
11.  You have nothing to do but to save souls. There­fore spend and be spent  in this work. And go always, not only to those who want you, but to  those who want you most.
12. Act in all things, not according to your own will, but  as a son in the Gospel, and in union with your brethren. As such, it is  your part to employ your time as our rules direct: partly in preaching  and visiting from i house to house, partly in reading, meditation, and  prayer. Above all, if you labour with us in our Lord’s vineyard, it is  needful you should do that part of the work which the Conference shall  advise, at those times and places which they shall judge most for His  glory.
If you like this timeless wisdom from the past, be sure and See Abraham Lincolns personal creed on my about page at GregNemer.com... It's what I believe.
"Humility and patience are the surest proof of the increase of love." -John Wesley, 1767

In my last article I shared with you  Photos of Our Christmas Projects.
Today I have some great news and excellent photos to show you.
Although Our Christmas gift giving ministry here in Chiapas, Mexico is still not over we have handed out over 2200 small toys and git packages. Here's a report:
Pareje Nichen, San Jaun Chamula

San Juan Chamula is the center of a lot of anti-christian conflict.  Many people have tried to minister there but can't.
We can and did minister less than 10 minutes from the main plaza in the city of San Juan Chamula.
With over 300 kids in attendance we ministered with professional clowns, toys , candies and my daughter Cristi even sang 2 songs with her guitar.
Praise God for 30 or so (older) chamula kids who came to the Lord this day. Special thanks to Pastor Gullermo Jiminez for making this event possible.
                              
Cruz Palenque, Municipio de Salto de Agua

This Chol community is very poor. We minister 3 services in less than 24 hours and handed out lots of gifts as you can see in the photos.
                              
Calvario, Municipio de Sabanilla

Calvario is located in the beautiful mountains near Yajalon Chiapas.
These Chol Indians are very loving and the youth even got involved in ministry here.
                              
Chilon and Chilon San Antonio

This is a very poor area. The people are from the Tzental Indian tribes and the children her are very poor. We shared the riches of Jesus love with them.
                              
See all of the photos
These are just some of the photos and we took many more...
