THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX:. IOM AMERICA is passionate about building bridges between the "needy" and Jesus Christ. We believe it is the responsibility of the indewelt Christian to provide understanding and cooperation between proactive Christians and those who struggle to find their way. We have learned through the years that suffering often times provides an opportunity to demonstrate real Christianity and we aim to provide such a model. With this promise comes. But seek first His kingdom and His righteo...

The Midnight Hour: March 2011

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 28, 2011. Mr and Mrs. Charles Phinney. History. Generations. Past. Future. What do those words invoke in you? YOU, the one living in the present, having a past and what you do with it, affect’s the future. Quite frankly, even by choosing to do nothing, you have already chosen something. What will you choose to do? Let me share a little background on why I have been meditating on this and felt compelled to share with you. I said goodbye to 3 of them in a 5 year time period. For instance, I b...

The Midnight Hour: February 2013

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html

Tuesday, February 12, 2013. I’ve been thinking on love lately, especially with Valentine’s Day right around the corner. Today, love is described in so many ways, and is mostly tied to feelings and following your heart. This left me wondering, “What is God’s definition of true love and can I even begin to gasp it in my humanity? 8221; Let me ask you this, “When you think of the words love and the Bible, what is the first Scripture that comes to mind? Is it John 3:16 ‘ God so loved the world…. Let’s ...

The Midnight Hour: December 2013

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html

Monday, December 2, 2013. Breaking Covenant The Truth About Divorce. No one really desires to discuss this topic, especially not biblically, because there are only two options left at the end of the discussion. Supporting God’s design or supporting mans. If you agree with the latter, you will be given the sentiment of being understanding, loving, helpful, and a true friend. However, if you are in agreement with God’s original design, you usually are not granted similar synonyms. For all the skeptics, jus...

The Midnight Hour: September 2013

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html

Thursday, September 5, 2013. Winner of the Waiting Game. Who is the most patient person you know? Think now of that person who just allows the Holy Spirit to ooze His fruit of longsuffering through him/her so much that it makes your heart ache just thinking about how long he/she has waited. I’ve read stories of incredible people who have done some mind-bending waiting. If you are like me, most of the time you read a story like that and are in awe. I’m guilty all too often. He is a wiser God than we can f...

The Midnight Hour: Simple Minded Recipes:

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/p/simple-minded-recipes.html

8220;The unfolding of Thy words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple”. Let’s be real. There are people like me in this world who just enjoy things simply put! We aren’t all gifted with the culinary arts knowing how to prepare a Filet Mignon or Roasted Duck in a Saffron sauce. Not to mention who in the world would suspect that a Truffle is more than just a name for decadent chocolate, but rather an edible mushroom? Have a simple minded recipe that you want to share? 1-12oz pkg chocolate chips.

The Midnight Hour: January 2013

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

Thursday, January 31, 2013. My niece, Phoebe, drew this 3 days after I wrote this article. Two powerful words that we often don’t stop to consider what they mean. I know I haven’t really weighed the impact of my “careless” words often spoken in moments of passion, opinion, jesting, or a myriad of other emotions. God’s Word tells us that we are to be under his pinions (Psalm 91:4). It burdens my heart. As believers, we take liberties in an effort to be real with our emotions, when His Word tells us that o...

The Midnight Hour: May 2011

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

Monday, May 30, 2011. You overcame by the power of the cross that rest on Calvary. You overcame my chains that once bound me to things I held near. Your overcame my darkest night with just a ray of Your light. You overcame the lust of my flesh that led me back to more of the same. You overcame my despair where I once believed I had no hope or destiny. You overcame the lies in the night that left me empty and full of dread. You overcame the unbelief that kept my feet from walking by faith. The beginning a...

The Midnight Hour: May 2013

http://jessphinney.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html

Friday, May 10, 2013. Waiting on His Clock. Let us proceed to a different reality…the heavenly realm. Our minds can’t quite get around this one, because here is a place where God reigns and is not controlled by a single being- angelic or otherwise. He is simply and powerfully, the “I AM.”. He is not only the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob- He is our God. I know far too often I do not. I am too concerned with the ticking of my earthly I Love Lucy ™. What train are you jumping on? 8220; Just think for a ...
