Though none go with you too? Love For His People, Steve Martin

News & Updates Give Support Today! Standing in support of Israel, Jews, and believers in all the nations, in the Name of Jesus (Yeshua). This is our regular communication to share the Love For His People with our friends. Blessings on ye head! June 9, 2020 Charlotte, North Carolina, USA Greeting to you our family and friends of Love For His People ministry. And to the new subscribers! Crazy. I keep telling this to my good wife Laurie, and she keeps telling me the same. The world has gone crazy. But what did we expect? In these days of shaking, as the Lord Yeshua (Jesus) Himself said, coupled with the Hebrew prophets words recorded centuries before and found in the eternal Bible, this was as planned. Believe it. As I stated before in these previous communications to you, this is but a trial run we have seen and been on. The pandemics. The civil unrest. The exploitation of the hurting, down-and-out, the murder of the innocent in the womb, and the ones who have skin tones different from others. This is that which He spoke about. Only ones who refuse to acknowledge Him would prefer to differ. Decisions, choices you and I made 10, 20, 30 years ago are being played out today. I remember a young leader named Erik Kruger (in his 30s) of a church we belong to, founded by him and Ron Milton, named Shiloh Fellowship (later renamed New Covenant Christian Church from 1980-1987) speak of those times then when we would make a decision. It would only seem to be a slight course correction or move at the time, but years, decades down the road we may end up in a place, relationship, habit, or reality that we really didn’t want. Based on that, and other words that the Holy Spirit continually speaks in encouragement and direction, I wrote this morning, Though None Go With Me. Decisions you made then, and decisions you make now, will take you down a road you may or may not like. As one wise, yet imaginable figure said in a movie, “Choose wisely.” I hope you do. Ahava and shalom, Steve Martin (with my good wife Laurie!) P.S. There is just over a month left before our Aliyah For His People event. Now this is a choice you hopefully will make to attend. See info below. P.S.S. (I like these P.S.s!) And if you haven’t already, sign up for this  email communication and free Love For His People ministry app if you haven’t already. Don’t miss out! “THOUGH NONE GO WITH ME” – Steve Martin, Founder/President “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15, NKJV Simple words were spoken at that time when the man, his wife, and two sons were confronted with death. It came from a heart that had already been prepared and determined ahead of time – to follow Jesus. No turning back. No turning back. Thus, the story behind the story that later became part of the song lyrics, “I Have Decided To Follow Jesus”. Read part of that now. “About 150 years ago, there was a great revival in Wales, England. As a result of this, many missionaries came from England to northeast India to spread the Gospel. The region was known as Assam and comprised hundreds of tribes. The tribal communities were quite primitive and aggressive. The tribesmen were also called head-hunters because of a social custom which required the male members of the community to collect as many heads as possible. A man’s strength and ability to protect his wife was assessed by the number of heads he had collected. Therefore, a youth of marriageable age would try and collect as many heads as possible and hang them on the walls of his house.  The more heads a man had, the more eligible he was considered.  Into this hostile and aggressive community, came a group of Welsh missionaries spreading the message of love, peace, and hope of Jesus Christ. Naturally, they were not welcomed. One Welsh missionary finally succeeded in converting a man, his wife, and two children.  This man’s faith proved contagious and many villagers began to accept Christianity.  Angry, the village chief summoned all the villagers. He then called the family who had first converted to renounce their faith in public or face execution. Moved by the Holy Spirit, the man sung his reply, “I have decided to follow Jesus. No turning back.” Enraged at the refusal of the man, the chief ordered his archers to arrow down the two children. As both boys lay twitching on the floor, the chief asked, “Will you deny your faith? You have lost both your children. You will lose your wife too.” But the man replied, again singing, “Though none go with me, still I will follow. No turning back.” * (You can read the full story here.) ‌ Check These Out! ALIYAH FOR HIS PEOPLE event View Details WALK WITH ME – videos by Steve Martin Over 338 to view! Encouragement These 14 short, inspirational messages will encourage you in your faith.

May 27,2020 Love For His People in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA

Greetings Love For His People family, friends, plus a warm welcome to the new readers of these encouraging communications! K.I.S.S. Ever hear that? “Keep it simple, stupid.” (Don’t tell your kids that. They will repeat it. Trust me, having raised 4 and now 8 grandkids.) I grew up sitting under the teachings of Derek Prince, and appreciated the opportunity the Lord Jesus gave me to serve with his ministry, led with the leadership of the International Director David Selby, for a total of 8 years – three years in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (1987-1990), and then for a second tour of duty for five years (2000-2005) in Charlotte, North Carolina. Listening, watching, and reading the teachings brought forth from Derek, whom I consider one of the greatest Bible teachers who ever lived for 88 years he was here with us, gave me a solid foundation on which my faith walk now stands on today. And Derek always kept it simple. No yelling. No pounding. No running around the stage, hands up in the air as if I didn’t see him. No expoundatory messages that left one wondering, “What did he say?” Just plain, simple, Bible truth. Gospel truth – on salvation, blessing Israel, demons, end of the age, marriage, relationships, faith, hope, love. You know, the basics of life on which to live one’s life. Check him out.  Derek Prince International Ministries Are you walking in faith today? Need some? I hope your walk with our Lord has grown in these last 2-3 months as He has given us a “Sabbath, Shabbat” rest in Him, to slow us down and awaken us to what is really going on. Did you do that? No more playing church. No more calling ourselves believers and acting as the rest of the world has so done. Now is the time to stand up and be counted. You in? Ahava and shalom, Steve MartinFounder/President Love For His People ministry in Charlotte, NC USA P.S. For those who have known this ministry, serving the Lord and His people now for over 10 years, you know I don’t send out mass appeal letters, by mail or social media. Thank you to those who yet give to help support families in Israel, India, Nigeria, and Pakistan. The Lord’s work continues daily. You too can use the online giving tools below, or send a check to: Love For His People P.O. Box 414 Pineville, NC 28134. I Am Ashamed “When Daniel learned that the decree had been signed and posted, he continued to pray just as he had always done. His house had windows in the upstairs that opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he knelt there in prayer, thanking and praising his God.” Daniel 6:10, THE MESSAGE I am ashamed. If you were to have looked around the country (the USA and all nations) and saw all the churches closed down, you would have heard what so many were saying, “Oh we must be closed for safety reasons.” Or, “The ruling government says no one can gather in groups of over 10 people.” Or maybe this excuse was used, “What will people think if we aren’t “complying” with what the “know-it-all” scientists are telling us. After all, they are the ones who know it all.” Or how about, “Because Bill Gates, Dr. Fauci, and Dr. Birx say it is so. They are right. They have the knowledge, experience, and truth.” I repeat. I am ashamed. As a Christian, who has proclaimed for decades that I serve the Living God, the One Who alone saves, heals, restores, protects, provides, directs, empowers…and then looked around all the others who have often said the same thing, but cowered in homes because of all the ones who declared otherwise, as if they were god themselves… Where has been the, “Stand up, stand up for Jesus!” proclamation we used to sing decades ago? No wonder the world thinks little of Christianity. No wonder we are not sought out as the ones having the answers, the solutions, the knowing of which way to go, when others continually have spoken that “their way is the way” and we as sheep just follow along like all the rest did, and do. It is a shame. It is wrong. It is saying to our God, the Creator, that during this pandemic that took the whole world down the path of pandemic fear and economic depression, that He is wrong, and they are right. And we, the ones who supposedly have the Truth, who have repeatedly said over and over that we are His children, instead chose to follow the words of the world, rather than the Word of God. For, when it comes down to it, that which we really have said is that we don’t believe Him. Where are the ones who fear God and not man? Who are the ones who would stand up and say, even after waiting through 2-3 months of this craziness, that we will serve the Righteous God, and not bow down to the empowered government that speaks out of ungodly, unrighteous, unholy spirits? What a shame it has been. And we have been ones who have brought shame on our Lord, after saying we do follow Him, but then we do not. How many would stand as Daniel did, when decrees were made, saying he could not pray to His God, for the ruling king was the one who was above all? Read again, or for the first time, Daniel 6:15-24. “Then these men came by agreement to the king and said to the king, “Recognize, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians that no injunction or statute which the king establishes may be changed. Then the king gave orders, and Daniel was brought in and cast into the lions’ den. The king spoke and said to Daniel, ” Your God whom you constantly serve will Himself deliver you.” A stone was brought and laid over the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signet rings of his nobles, so that nothing would be changed in regard to Daniel. Then the king went off to his palace and spent the night fasting, and no entertainment was brought before him; and his sleep fled from him. Then the king arose at dawn, at the break of day, and went in haste to the lions’ den. When he had come near the den to Daniel, he cried out with a troubled voice. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you constantly serve, been able to deliver you from the lions?” Then Daniel spoke to the king, ” O king, live forever! “My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths and they have not harmed me, inasmuch as I was found innocent before Him; and also toward you, O king, I have committed no crime.” Then the king was very pleased and gave orders for Daniel to be taken up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den and no injury whatever was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.” NASU I am proud, yes proud with a godly, righteous pride, that there have been a few who have stood in faith, and I among them, counting it a privilege to say that we do not bow down to that which seeks to take over the world, the world that alone belongs to Our God, Who never left His throne during all this time. I continue to stand with these, and encourage others to stand up, speak out, and serve the God they say they do, and must continue to do so now. This has only been a test the Lord allowed, in His wisdom and understanding, to see how we would react, how we would walk in faith or fear, and how we would respond to a work of the enemy, the one who continually attempts to destroy, kill, and usurp the will of the Lord God Almighty. What about you who call yourself a Christian, one who believes in Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach? What have you done to show it? And what are you going to do when it becomes really bad, when your faith must be shown and put into practice, in order not to bow down to that which is coming, that is not of God? Whose word are you really going to believe, and trust in? “Now therefore, fear the Lord, serve Him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve the Lord! And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:14-15, NKJV “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.” Romans 1:16-17, NASU Now think on this.

No fooling. - Love For His People newsletter, Steve Martin

April 1, 2020 Charlotte, North Carolina USA Greetings to Love For His People ministry friends and supporters. A pastor from India asked me this morning on Whats App (if you communicate with anyone outside of the USA, most likely this is the best way...), "Pastor, how do you relate this world's situation through a Biblical perspective?" My reply, no fooling... Here is a short list I believe in regards to this: 1. We are in the last days. These are birth pangs of what is to go. The time clock started when Israel became a nation in 1948. ”When the fig tree buds...” in Matthews 24:32-35. 2. Christians need to be lights of faith and not as others walking in fear. 3. As I wrote in my ”A Time to Pause and Rest” message this morning, we need to obey the Lord and have one day to rest each week. Nations have not done this so He is shutting all down so they do and perhaps look to Him. Also, I believe we as believers will go through the Tribulation. Then when the Lord comes back we will join Him in the air. The word ”rapture” is not even in the Bible. It is a made-up word from the late 1800s.”  We are no fools, even on April 1. We can and must have the mind of Christ in what we say and do, if we are going to have an effect in our cities, states, nations and the world. I so appreciate Mike Lindell saying what he said on the White House lawn this week. Check here: Mike Lindell speaks at the White House Read what he says and then even support him, as the news media lashes out, and buy a MyPillow. I bought 3 more. And I don't get a commission off this! The world is looking for answers. They are fearful of dying. We have the words of life, as given to us by Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach. "Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." John 14:6, NASB I hope you will take the 3-4 minutes to read A Time to Pause and Rest. You probably need some right about now! And here is one from "out of the blue" - pun intended. Unless the planes cease flying, we are still going to Israel May 13-22. I like that Blues Brothers quote, "We are on a mission from God." So are you. Ahava and shalom, Steve Martin, Founder/President Love For His People ministry P.S. Extra time on your hand and tired of what the TV offers? Enjoy watching the Ahava Adventures short videos from Israel last October! Watch here: "Walk With Me" - Israel Ahava Adventures! Love For His People ministry, established in April, 2010 by Steve and Laurie Martin, seek to bring life and encouragement through support for our Messianic friends in Israel and other nations, along with inspirational messages, 27 books published, and words of encouragement as the doors are opened by our Lord Jesus, Yeshua HaMashiach.

Trust in the Lord forever, for in Yah, the Lord, is everlasting strength.” Isaiah 26:3-4, NKJV Have you found yourself stressed out a bit lately? Have you snapped at your spouse? (Yes, I have.) Quick lash out at your boss? Lose job or laid off? Do you find yourself being somewhat on edge, unnerved, having apprehension in regard to that which is around you or which may come your way, real or imagined? Do you “jump out of your seat” at the slightest unexpected noise near you? Jittery? Fearful of saying or doing the wrong thing? Sensing some claustrophobia as many of us in the nations are in a “shutdown”, closed-in”, or under a “stay at home” edict from the government? Then read this: Stress Test We have no plans at this time to cancel or postpone this event. If you support Israel, and the Jews, you need to come to this gathering. Get informed. Info here. Register now. (required for entry). Aliyah For His People event July 10-11, 2020 The Road We Travel - Challenges We Overcome as Believers in the Lord by Steve Martin Now that many of us are being "shut in" our homes, get this great book and travel outside your door as you read along! An adventure! Challenging times? Of course! Didn't our Lord Jesus say we would have "perilous times" in these last days? "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come..." 2 Timothy 3:1, NKJV We are living in those times. Pandemics, tumultuous financial conditions, earthquakes, droughts...with fear proving faith is little to be found, even among professing Christians.I encourage you with these 20 messages of hope, faith, and love. As you read, know that we will stand strong, because we are keeping our eyes on the One Who created us. Because He has been Faithful, is Faithful, and will continue to be Faithful, our faith in Jim can stand strong against the tests of times. And there will be tests along the road.Don't be caught unexpected. Prepare your heart and spirit to know the truth, walk in faith, and be the light in this world that you and I have been called to be. Ahava and shalom!
