Facebook Invites Coming

Facebook tells me that I have around 650 friends I have never invited to like the Byron Howell Ministries Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/ByronHowellMinistries/). Apparently I can't just invite everyone with one click and not think about it more than that (which would be my preference). Also, it appears that I need to do batches of 50, so I will be sending them out over the next few weeks.

If we were friends in my first 23 years and don't really know each other now, here is what happened. After my first year of law school (May, 2004) I realized that the best choice for my life was complete dedication to God and my salvation through Jesus Christ. I approached it with the same zeal that I approached my former (less honorable) practices. With my law school training and God's help, I approach the Scriptures to understand God's will and how to live it.

I learned that God's best gifts are available to everyone (how awesome!), but I also learned that they aren't automatic. We must learn God's ways and operate in His systems if we are to see His salvation and blessings in our lives.

I realized that God is the most wonderful Being Who could ever exist, and that He chose to be that way for everyone. Despite the punishments and problems we read about in the Hebrew Scriptures and Prophets ("Old Testament"), through the sacrifice of Jesus we now all have access to God's unfathomable love and grace.

God's laws may look like control at first, but they are actually freedom. Surrender to God is access to all of natural and spiritual reality, access to eternity, and access to your best possible life and the highest expression of who your Creator created you to be. Such access can be found nowhere else.

Byron Howell Ministries is simply a vehicle I created to help share what I have learned with everyone I know. God's truths are the truth I am supposed to share, this sharing is the art I am supposed to create. I understand if people aren't interested, and I take no offense.

I hope any of my messages you come across bless and help you. I pray that you find God's love and salvation through Jesus Christ, for He alone is the greatest treasure in the universe.

You Must Defeat Doubt

Today we will talk about faith and doubt, and we are going to see that doubt is one of the greatest enemies we will ever have.  We will also talk about defeating doubt. If you are anything like me, you have several areas of your life that you are currently praying about.   You have several areas of your life where you would like God’s help or to see God’s best.   So you pray about those areas and you try to make positive changes.   I hope you listened to my last episode because I talked about what to do in any difficult situation.   To briefly sum it up, for any difficult situation you need to pray about it, study God’s Word about it, do anything God says, and stay in faith that God’s Word is working in your life.   We also talked about praying instead of worrying and what it means to stand in faith despite contrary natural circumstances. If you have listened to me talk about faith, and I have a lot of episodes about faith, you know that true Biblical...

The Love Revolution

Image
Recently I read a new book by Joyce Meyer, the Love Revolution.  I must say that it is fantastic.  It discusses the Christian duty to love and gives inspiration and education on the subject.  Joyce wisely teaches us more about love and how to love.  But really, Joyce doesn't just want us to read a book, she wants a revolution, one that I can proudly say I've joined. I don't think we can overstate the importance of love to Christians.  Jesus said that by our love for each other people would recognize us as Christians.  Jesus said that the two most important commandments are for us to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, and for us to love our neighbor as ourselves.  Then Jesus gave us a new commandment, enhancing the second one above, that we should love people as Christ loved us.  Christ sacrificed Himself so that we could be saved and have better lives, only because He loved us.  Therefore we must also le...

Victory in Your Healing Journey

            As many of you know I have spoken a lot about divine healing, and I’ve also written a book called Understanding and Receiving Divine Healing, which is available on Amazon.   If you are going through any kind of medical situation, or if you have any friends or loved ones who are, I highly encourage you to read it.   In the book I go through all the basics on divine healing and show you how any Christian can receive God’s healing power for any medical problem.   Today I will talk about three great revelations I’ve received and how they relate to divine healing.   What I mean by revelation is that I’m going to look at three passages from the Bible that have become very clear and very important to me.   These are three passages where I truly had a moment where God’s Holy Spirit opened my understanding to them.   Furthermore, I think you can take these three passages and use them to both obtain your healing and ...
