Words of Encouragement
Psalm 116:15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
Isaiah 43:4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
For Heaven’s Sake…
“Notwithstanding the plots of enemies, open and secret, the work of building went steadily forward, and in less than two months from the time of Nehemiah’s arrival in Jerusalem the city was girded with its defenses and the builders could walk upon the walls and look down upon their defeated and astonished foes. ‘When all our enemies heard thereof, and all the heathen that were about us saw these things,’ Nehemiah writes, ‘they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God.’ PK 657.1
“When the poor and oppressed had appealed to Nehemiah for redress of their wrongs, he had stood boldly in their defense and had caused the wrongdoers to remove the reproach that rested on them. But the authority that he had exercised in behalf of his downtrodden countrymen he did not now exercise in his own behalf. His efforts had been met by some with ingratitude and treachery, but he did not use his power to bring the traitors to punishment. Calmly and unselfishly he went forward in his service for the people, never slackening his efforts or allowing his interest to grow less. PK 658.1
“Satan’s assaults have ever been directed against those who have sought to advance the work and cause of God. Though often baffled, he as often renews his attacks with fresh vigor, using means hitherto untried. But it is his secret working through those who avow themselves the friends of God’s work, that is most to be feared. Open opposition may be fierce and cruel, but it is fraught with far less peril to God’s cause than is the secret enmity of those who, while professing to serve God, are at heart the servants of Satan. These have it in their power to place every advantage in the hands of those who will use their knowledge to hinder the work of God and injure His servants. PK 658.2
“Every device that the prince of darkness can suggest will be employed to induce God’s servants to form a confederacy with the agents of Satan. Repeated solicitations will come to call them from duty; but, like Nehemiah, they should steadfastly reply, ‘I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down.’ God’s workers may safely keep on with their work, letting their efforts refute the falsehoods that malice may coin for their injury. Like the builders on the walls of Jerusalem they must refuse to be diverted from their work by threats or mockery or falsehood. Not for one moment are they to relax their watchfulness or vigilance, for enemies are continually on their track. Ever they must make their prayer to God ‘and set a watch against them day and night.’ Nehemiah 4:9. PK 659.1
“As the time of the end draws near, Satan’s temptations will be brought to bear with greater power upon God’s workers. He will employ human agents to mock and revile those who ‘build the wall.’ But should the builders come down to meet the attacks of their foes, this would but retard the work. They should endeavor to defeat the purposes of their adversaries, but they should not allow anything to call them from their work. Truth is stronger than error, and right will prevail over wrong. PK 659.2

For Health’s Sake…
Two basic types of moles appear on the skin: congenital and acquired. Either you are born with moles or they appear on the skin after birth. When pigment skin cells cluster together, instead of spreading out in a consistent pigment, you have a mole. Moles are a collection of abnormal skin cells and generally are not cancerous. They result from poor dietary habits and lifestyle. Therefore toxins in the blood cause imbalances in the system, which change cellular structure.
The American Academy of Dermatology offers this advice about moles:
“For adults, new moles and changes to existing moles can be a sign of melanoma. Caught early, melanoma is highly treatable.
Here are 3 facts that can help you find melanoma early and get treatment:
- A change to a mole or a new mole is often the first sign of melanoma.
- You can find melanoma early by checking your own skin.
- If you see a mole or other spot that’s growing, itching, bleeding, or changing in any way, immediately make an appointment to see a dermatologist.”
The risk of skin cancer rises when the number of moles is greater than ten, Pastor Flemons emphasized. However, when the system is cleansed and a plant-based diet is adopted, the skin will respond with a healthy glow.
