New Blog by Pastors Bill & Duska Annis - Thankfulness

2011-12-29T03:23:02+00:00

First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, (1 Timothy 2:1 ESV)

As Duska and I look back on 2011 we can truly declare God is faithful and we are thankful!

As Paul admonished his son Timothy we are thankful for people. We are thankful for the people who make up the FCF family in Canada. People like you who have supported financially, those who have prayed, spoken kind words, and invited us to minister in your Church.

We are thankful for the new family members that have become a part of the FCF vision for Canada. We are thankful for your Church and the people God has blessed you with.

We are thankful every time you open your doors and preach Christ Jesus and cause FAITH to fill the people's heart.

On Christmas day Pastors Terry and Shawn presented us with your love gift. We received it with great joy, not joy for the money only, but joy for your expression of love for us.

We are thankful for all the people in our lives and will continue to give thanks for you.

Pastor Bill’s Christmas Blog: The Day All Heaven Broke Loose

2011-12-15T17:14:41+00:00

And in that vicinity there were shepherds living [out under the open sky] in the field, watching [in shifts] over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord flashed and shone all about them, and they were terribly frightened. But the angel said to them, Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people. For to you is born this day in the town of David a Savior, Who is Christ (the Messiah) the Lord! [Mic. 5:2.] Then suddenly there appeared with the angel an army of the troops of heaven (a heavenly knighthood), praising God and saying, Glory to God in the highest [heaven], and on earth peace among men with whom He is well pleased [men of goodwill, of His favor]. Luke 2:8-14

We have a stereotype mindset of the birth of Jesus which is often reflected in all our Christmas plays and cards.

Let’s ignore all this for a moment and look at what really happened.

The angels made an announcement that thrilled heaven, stunned earth, and threw hell into a panic.

This announcement was made by none other than the angel of the LORD the personal angel of God. He spoke good news that produced great joy. Verse nine says the glory of the LORD flashed and shone and they were frightened. The angel was telling them the blessing spoken to Adam in Genesis 1:28 was back in the earth. The BLESSING was restored to the whole human family. The garden of Eden was open again. As soon as this message was declared all heaven broke loose.

And immediately there was with the angel a multitude of the army of Heaven praising God and saying, "Glory be to God in the highest Heavens, And on earth peace among men who please Him!" Luke 2:13-14

The war between heaven and earth was over! The garden of Eden incident was finished! The battle that started when satan stole Adam’s blessing was won! There is peace between God and man!

Jesus is the perfect will of God for humanity, He is the blessing in flesh (Be fruitful, multiple, replenish the earth, subdue and have dominion has always been the will of God for us). The good news is we now have been empowered to accomplish it.

But the Messiah hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, and hath been a curse for us; (for it is written, Cursed is everyone that is hanged on a tree;) that the blessing of Abraham might be on the Gentiles, through Jesus the Messiah; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit by faith. Galations 3:13-14

This is the heart of the message of faith. JESUS has redeemed us, we are in Him and the BLESSING is now ours. Because of what Jesus has done we can make a faith claim on all the promises of God.

My prayer for you is more than a blessed Christmas I want you to experience a BLESSED LIFE in Christ Jesus.

Book Description:

Pastor Bill Annis shares his walk of faith: times when he had to hear from the Lord, stand on His promises, and act on His Word. He reminds us of God's laws and our part in activating these truths in our lives. As people of faith, we must know God and expect Him to move in our lives, in our world, and in His Church.

Jeremy and Sarah Pearsons | Bio

Jeremy and Sarah Pearsons have served in full time ministry together since their marriage in September of 2007. In 2010, they founded Pearsons Ministries International on these three words: Him we preach. They now travel full time, all over the world, to preach Jesus, teach The Word of God, and lead congregations in worship. From a rich heritage of faith this young couple presents The Word of God with sincerity, passion, and a deep rooted revelation of the Person of Jesus Christ. Their priority has always been to take the precious Word of God that was preached to them by generations that have gone before and make it available to generations that follow. “We believe there are two kinds of legacies, the one you keep and the one you leave.”
