Get Thee Behind Me Satan

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 18 Jan 2020 18:00:00 -0700

Greetings! Now here is an episode that talks about someone that is not a very good example. I won't write his name here, you just have to check this one out! —JC.

This week I think I've had more than enough, of people telling me of their worship of Satan. It's every day that I hear in my ears people shouting out "Hail Satan" and others telling me how great it is that they are Satanist. You know what, this is the life of preaching on the streets to the public... and the reason why I ask myself, where are all the preachers and ministers? In eight of months of street preaching, about six days a week, I've meet maybe one or two preachers... that's it!

And now, you can see why I get so frustrated at church goers! Yea, it's nice to sit in a warm comfy seat and hear nice music and listen to an eloquent speaker - I mean pastor! Thousands of Christians and hundreds of pastors/ministers... and no one out in the streets where the sinners are! Except me... I love it! It's the greatest opportunity that I've ever had in my life! And I'm asking God for more preachers to join with me.

Here is the really confusing part or maybe I could say, sad part... I can see that Christians are openly serving Satan! How can that be?

Sweet Water And Bitter

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 11 Jan 2020 18:10:00 -0700

Greetings! Is there a time in your life that you wish you can change so that today you could live a better life? Yea, big question, I know. This episode may be of interest! —JC.

This year is getting off to a great start of forward momentum that I pray will continue throughout this unusual year, and a beginning to a brand new decade. To some, this may not appear unusual or noteworthy. However, after you read my letter today, this phraseology may change. We'll see what happens.

There are times and seasons in our life and in life in general that will change the course that we are currently on or just previously have been on. That's good news! Why? Because, sometimes change can be a wonderful new beginning that will spawn magnificent things in our lives. Isn't that wonderful? Because of this, I can see that Satan tries to stop every believer, and not just believers, but every soul on earth, to stop being good and to start or continue being bad and evil.

Now, how does this happen? And why is this important enough to write entire letter about and then for you to spend your precious time reading or listening to this Sunday Prayer Letter?

Labourers Together With God

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 04 Jan 2020 17:00:00 -0700

Greetings! How can we overcome our fear of God and actually do what God wants us to do? In this episode I cover several areas that may be of help. Let's take a listen... and see what happens! —JC.

What a great day in Jesus! This entire week has been one of seeing miracles and amazing things that God has done. I'm always caught up with enthusiasm when I see God move and do things for people. God loves his people! God loves you!

As I was working or rather, labouring for Christ on the streets of Boulder, and Denver, and Golden, and soon Nederland, and also in Longmont... I could see and hear the Spirit of God working in the souls of people who passed me by... God is a miracle working God! We must not put God in a "box" sort of speak, also we must not attempt to "control" God, sort of speak. I can see that to many Christians don't allow God to move in their lives. It almost seems like, they are afraid of God! This should not be. Amen?

If we all make a decision to go to work for God and labour for Christ, and then actually go to work... this scariness towards God would leave and be replaced with JOY! Absolutely!

Founded Upon A Rock

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 14 Dec 2019 18:25:00 -0700

Greetings! How can we know for a fact that whatever we do will last? What do we need to do to make sure of this thing lasting, no matter what happens? Well, if these are questions you have... this episode is for you! —JC.

When we pray, or rather when I pray... either way... it's as if we are digging deep into our spirit, and this is only when we are in the Spirit and praying in the Spirit and praying with faith, all in the name of Jesus Christ.

Our prayers can be founded upon a rock. Our ministry can be founded upon a rock. Our life can be founded upon a rock. And our eternal destiny can be assured by being in the Rock of our salvation.

2 Samuel 22:47 (KJV) The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.

Psalm 89:26 (KJV) He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.

Rock is a key word here in the Holy Bible, Authorized King James Version. Rock is an important title also used for our Saviour Jesus Christ!

Ye Have Filled Jerusalem With Your Doctrine

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 07 Dec 2019 18:25:00 -0700

Greetings! How many times have you wondered what it would be like to fill your city with stuff you believe to be really important? Well, that's the idea of this episode... enjoy! —JC.

What a great week it has been filling Boulder, Colorado and Denver, Colorado with our doctrine of JESUS CHRIST! Sinners hate it... but the Saints love it! Praise the Lord!

As I was getting ready and preparing to write my Sunday Prayer Letter, I kept seeing in my imagination or maybe in the spirit, not sure which; this preaching that I've been doing for the last six months, and it looked as if I was filling a huge water glass full of water and it was getting ready to spill all over onto the counter when I heard some mockers saying... "you have filled Boulder with your doctrine..." ...then I started laughing, because I remembered a verse similar to this... I found it... it's Acts 5:28! What a great verse from those who hate the gospel of Christ.

The Day Is At Hand

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 30 Nov 2019 17:05:00 -0700

Greetings! Has there been a time in your past, or even today, that you felt like you were in the dark? Well, darkness is a real thing and something that needs some light shed upon it... that is this episodes message! —JC.

Hallelujah, God is good! I praise the LORD in every thing that I do. His praise is continually in my mouth. I love JESUS CHRIST and I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, and I prove it everyday of my life. This faith is what sets me apart unto the Lord and for his glory and his work. Nothing I do is for me. Everything I do is for the Lord! Selah.

My my, what a way to start of a prayer letter! This is in no way what I thought I was going to write, and it is not going to be deleted, no. What I write is from my heart and my spirit, and I pray it's from the Holy Ghost to you my dear friend!

The night that we all live in is coming to an end. The day is at hand and we who want the day to begin, have already entered into the day.

He Shall Restore Sevenfold

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 23 Nov 2019 18:30:00 -0700

Greetings! Have you ever wondered why it takes so long to do something? Well, this question seems to pop up once a week for me, if not every day! And this is what's inside of today's episode. —JC.

Have you ever wondered why it takes so long to do something? Well, this question seems to pop up once a week for me, if not every day! Because this thing is on my mind, the reason why it takes so long to do stuff, I've had this in prayer before the Father for months or whatever, it seems like a very long time.

What really got the ball rolling in my prayer about this, is a few weeks ago; I've had numerous people promise to do something for me and lo and behold, nothing is done. Believe me, I really don't care, because I don't work for people... I work only for God! For decades now, my total source of life comes strictly from God. My real concern is for them... it hurts the person when they promise and then don't deliver. Oh well.

Let Your Speech Be Alway With Grace

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 16 Nov 2019 18:35:00 -0700

Greetings! How many times have you thought, what do I need to do to change my life for the better? Or, Why can't I get ahead and get things done the way they should be? Good news for you today... that is the idea of today's show!
—JC.

It's November and this year will soon come to an end, along with this decade coming to an end. Anytime dates change and times change, there are other things that change that we all don't see, nor understand, but as creatures of this earth, we can feel the change.

Change is one of those odd things that happen all through our life, but is difficult to describe how we feel about it. Generally what I see as a preacher, is people act different around times and seasons of change. Unfortunately, many of the actions taken by people are not so constructive.

Rejoice, Because Your Names Are Written In Heaven

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 09 Nov 2019 17:05:00 -0700

Greetings my friend!

What an amazing title for this episode! I do rejoice, and I pray that you too my friend, rejoice because your name is written in heaven! How exciting to know this, and to recognize the importance of this statement by Jesus Christ himself.

How many times do you hear the children of God rejoicing because of blessings, or of something that has happened to them that is really good; and then you think, well that's nice, but how about me? I too need that blessing in my life? Why are they blessed and I'm suffering and struggling with life?

And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved."

This is the most important decision of your life. You receive eternal life by receiving Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord.

Walk In The Light

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 09 Nov 2019 16:05:00 -0700

Greetings!

This week has been filled with God's grace and mercy as I have walked in the light at every moment of every day. How is that possible? Well, I see that it's possible because it's written in the word of God! By knowing what the word of God says, and then believing what is written, and therefore walking the scripture out in our daily life, all of us are able to walk in the light!

Have We Not Power

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 12 Oct 2019 18:45:00 -0600

Greetings!

This week has been filled with so much prayer that I think that I want to write today's letter about what is underneath or what is inside and what is behind 'PRAYER', at least this is where I'm starting and from here the Holy Spirit tends to take over... praise God for that!

The two scriptures that are the heart of this letter are...

Acts 1:8, KJV... "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."

1 Corinthians 9:1-27, KJV... "Have we not power..."

As a preacher, minister, and missionary; prayer is central to the ability to carry out the work of the ministry of Jesus Christ. Even as a Christian, we all are required to carry out "...the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:" This is Ephesians 4:12-13, KJV.

He Hath Put A New Song In My Mouth

JOHN CHOQUE — Sun, 06 Oct 2019 20:05:00 -0600

Greetings!

It seems that every day I come up against this idea of singing a new song! A new song... what is a new song? In the word of God, what is new?

Exodus 1:8, KJV, is the first mention of this word 'new'... It says, "Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph." So the word 'new' is the opposite of 'old'. Like in Romans 7:6, KJV, "But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter."

New is sort of like, or is something that has not been used or seen or made before this new thing came about. It's new! It's not old! It has not been here before... it's the first time to earth... God likes 'NEW!" There are hundreds of samples of the word 'new' in the Holy Bible, and in every case God seems to be the one involved. Isn't that amazing?

Whosoever Putteth Away

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 03 Aug 2019 20:25:00 -0600

Greetings!

So, you say, what is this Preacher John... you've been away for four months, your last show was April 9th and today is August 1st! And you start with this verse? Man, you must have something going on! I'm laughing as I say these words, because most preachers in modern churches just don't really want to talk about this verse, or any verse that relates to it. But, I'm not most preachers... to say the least!

And look, I didn't plan this verse for this discourse today. As you well know, I follow after the Holy Ghost; and he gives me the power to preach and minister as he wills. But, there is more to this story...

After my last episode, number 26, on April 9th... I lost the power to want to continue these discourses and in its place the Holy Spirit put street preaching and street ministry! Wow! It has been an amazing eye opening experience in this mountain town of Boulder, Colorado! If you've never been here or know anything about this town, you would fully agree with me that it is quite amazing to even have the courage to be on the streets preaching Jesus Christ!

God is so very good to his servants! I serve Jesus Christ, my Saviour and my Lord and my God!

Our Dwelling Place

JOHN CHOQUE — Wed, 10 Apr 2019 18:10:00 -0600

Greetings!

Today's discourse will be different. Why? Because in my prayer time after I woke up, and as I was reading and studying God's Word, in regards to the church the Lord is building here in Boulder, Colorado; I became very desirous of sharing this Psalm with you my dear friend!

This Psalm did not come from my daily school work, as I said, it came while in prayer. Listen, our prayer life is so very important! I can tell immediately while talking to a Christian what kind of prayer life they have. Now, obviously, this is general, but all to often, I'm not to far off.

In fact, in today's prayer, another thing that came to me is the method to use for interviewing! Isn't that odd? But remember, that I'm in Boulder to build God a church, so therefore, there are numerous points that require covering! It's amazing the amount of effort involved in starting a new work for the Lord!

Shall All Likewise Perish

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 06 Apr 2019 00:50:00 -0600

Greetings!

I know, right off the bat and I'm talking about repenting! Why is it that I seem to always be talking about quitting sin and leaving the world and repenting to the point that all that you want people to do is serve God? I mean really, isn't there anything else that you want to talk on, John?

Yes there is, however, I'm not my own! I serve as a minister under Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit! I'm commissioned and ordained to preach the gospel, to minister the Holy Spirit, and to build God a church in Boulder, Colorado!

So when someone asks or criticizes me for always talking about Jesus and seemingly never talking about living here and working and having a family and all the stuff we do to build a life for ourselves here on earth... you don't talk about all that! Why? I mean, there are preachers all over the world talking about how to have a great life right now, and to have a successful life, and to build a great career and business... but you talk about repenting of our sins! What gives? Why are you so different and obtuse to all the preachers and praise songs that I hear? Because all these talk about life on earth and how we can do better! But you don't, John?

My dear friend, what does the Word of God say? Does it say love the world? Does it say build up wealth in bank and retirement accounts? Does it say, learn all about the world and how to survive until you succeed in your career? Let's go take a look and talk about it, what do you think, deal?

He Was Praying In A Certain Place

JOHN CHOQUE — Thu, 04 Apr 2019 23:55:00 -0600

Greetings!

Did you know that there are 14 places in just the Book of Luke that talks about prayer? Fourteen places! Yea, I just now looked it up! I picked this title, or probably the truth is, the Holy Spirit showed me the title, of today's discourse, oh well... God is good! We always need to be in the process of learning... we'll never learn it all! Learning is good for our mind, good for our spirit, and good for our body! That sounds about right... learning keeps a lot of bad things away from us. I'm only referring to good things to learn, not bad things to learn. Okay?

In today's school work there were 86 verses to study, and throughout these verses, I kept seeing some very powerful lessons that we all can learn. But as I kept going through the school work the thought kept coming to me that, if we could just pray effectively, then everything else in here would fall into place, and we could be doing everything that Jesus said to do. So, learning to pray the right way is the way to go! Amen?

There are thirteen verses in the context of our single verse of Luke 11:1. They go from Luke 11:1 through Luke 11:13 Right up front I'll tell you that the punch line is the last verse! Sort of makes sense, since Jesus said, the first shall be last and the last shall be first... Matthew 19:30 (KJV) But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

Despiseth Him That Sent Me

JOHN CHOQUE — Wed, 03 Apr 2019 23:25:00 -0600

Greetings!

I wrote this verse in my little notebook and began to cry. You see, to me the Word of God is alive and gives life to anyone who wants life. This comes from the Holy Ghost that fills every believer that repents, and is baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of their sins, and then is able to receive the gift of God, which is the Holy Ghost. (I think it would be a good thing to read and meditate Acts 2:38, KJV)

This simple act of receiving the Holy Ghost can change your entire power structure that is within you. Prior to having power, we are tossed about by our enemy, where we appear to have no power over him, Satan. However, by being baptized in the Holy Ghost, we all can receive this power from God!

Wow, I feel like I've really come out of the gates running the race to win today! Isn't it wonderful to know that Jesus Christ is Lord and that he came to set us free from our sins and to heal us of all our sicknesses and diseases! Jesus came to give us life! Eternal life and to have the chance to have our very names written in heaven for all eternity!

Thy Faith Hath Saved Thee

JOHN CHOQUE — Tue, 02 Apr 2019 20:15:00 -0600

Greetings!

Once again here we are, and here again the Holy Spirit gives us just a tiny little verse to write and speak on. Sort of reminds me of a verse... "...despise not one of these little ones;..." (Matthew 18:10).

So we're not going to despise, nor turn up our nose, or even scoff at something little. Little things can become great things! Like this verse... "a grain of mustard seed, which when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:..." (Mark 4:31), and this one, "But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs,..." (Mark 4:32)

And here's another one... Luke 17:6 (KJV) And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

When you think about it, the Word of God is a small or tiny seed, most of the words in the King James Bible are probably only about 5 letters long! I read some where that the King James Bible has a 5th Grade reading level! I mean, think about it, 5th grade... that's pretty tiny or small... well probably not to a 5th grader... but really, to a university student, like those 35,000 here at CU in Boulder, Colorado, their 5th grade year is a long ways behind them!

The Things Which I Say

JOHN CHOQUE — Mon, 01 Apr 2019 22:35:00 -0600

Greetings!

I chuckle to myself just about every time I sit down to write and prepare my discourse. Why? Well, have you noticed a theme that seems to run through all my discourses? That's right, I write on such a tiny verses with only a few words! Believe me when I say, I didn't select this verse, or any of the verses that I talk on. Now, I can hear someone say, okay, how do you pick the particular verse?

When I sit down and do my daily school work, GEC Bible School, which is apart of our church, the one that is brand new here in Boulder, Colorado... also the missionary work that I pray that some will take serious in their giving outreach.

Building a new ministry is funding intensive, because of the ground that needs to be prepared, the digging deep into the city's ground (people of the city), (not the physical dirt...LOL), establishing a pier network for the foundation, which is founded upon rock (that means Jesus Christ!), and I can go on and on at all the enormous amounts of pre-activity that is required prior to launching a new work of the Lord. I for one am shocked and a greatly overwhelmed.

However, because of the Spirit of God, things seem to work out in favour to what the Lord is looking to build here in this amazing city! By the way, our Bible School can be taken anywhere you live... it's that simple and elegant!

What I just finished saying, actually relates to much of what the verse for today's discourse is all about. And it also is a theme that is in the 86 verses of today's school work. God is so good, isn't he?

Returned From Jordan

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 30 Mar 2019 23:35:00 -0600

Greetings!

Returned From Jordan
Luke 4:1 (KJV) And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,

It's so strange to return from something. Just like I've been extremely busy doing tons of research in preaching, in studying different doctrines, and plans on building the church, and a whole host of other related topics, all for the purpose of preaching and ministering and building Gospel Evangelist Church in Boulder, Colorado. Life is so beautifully good! Praise Jesus!

By the way, today is my one-year-anniversary of the horrendous skateboard wreck I got into that crushed my left knee and paralyzed my left foot for many months. One year ago was Good Friday, March 30, 2018... about 2:30 PM on the Boulder Creek Path behind the Foothills Hospital!

How fortunate for me to be just a stone's throw away for where I would spend my next 30 days! Yep, two surgeries and 30 days of drugs... what a trip!

But that's not why I'm doing today's discourse. I'm just finishing up on most of my research and this was the next natural step. Plus, I give Saturday's as a Sabbath unto the Lord... in fact every Saturday since the Lord moved me to Boulder on May 3, 2017, have I given a Sabbath day unto the Lord.

He Came Into All The Country

JOHN CHOQUE — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 00:45:00 -0600

Greetings!

At first glance you would think, what a simple title. However, what you would not know, until now was, I had another verse that I wanted to write about in today's discourse on the Word of God. And it was on an entirely different topic and discussion and even about a woman rather than a man.

You see, the Spirit knows what should be written about and preached about. Yes, that is one hundred percent true! But let's see, just how many of us do exactly what the Holy Ghost wants to do. I think we all would be quite surprised at how few follow closely the Spirit.

Some other time maybe I can write about the other topic that nearly always has my interest. But for today, let's get into our topic... "He Came Into All The Country"... once again here is our scripture, found in Luke 3:3 (KJV) And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

When I read this or when you read this, what is the first thing that comes to mind? Here is a list of things that I see... you may see more or less... it all depends on where we are at this moment. I'll list them here now: came; all; country about; preaching; baptism; repentance; remission; sins.

Who Shall Roll Us Away The Stone

JOHN CHOQUE — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 23:00:00 -0700

Greetings!

The moment that I read this, my very first thought was, "Wow, they had the faith to start walking towards the sepulchre without any idea on how they were going to move the heavy stone in front of the door! They just started off in that direction by faith!" That's what I said and that's what caught my attention! Isn't that amazing...not me...the faith of the women!

Today's verses cover a lot of ground, from Mark 15:40 to Luke 1:58. These verses, or rather this section of Scripture is pre-selected through the 12-Month Reading Plan that I choose in the Alexander Scourby Bible App. There are four reading paces to choose from: 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, and 12 month. I've tried them all over the years, but I found that for the school that the Holy Spirit is starting that the 12 month is the best for our purposes.

You see, we're not just listening to the bible. That is the first part of the school work. After that though is the reading of the verses, then there is the praying through the verses, then lastly there is the writing of a highlighted verse, usually just one verse. This verse is best selected by the Holy Spirit, because then he can show you or us some interesting facts about that single verse. Plus, acting by faith is a tremendous event!

He Went Forward A Little And Fell On The Ground

JOHN CHOQUE — Wed, 06 Feb 2019 22:15:00 -0700

Greetings!

This passage of Scripture I read today which is from Mark 14:26 through Mark 15:39 is mostly to do with what Jesus Christ, the Son of God did for every one of us who choose to believe, knowing that many will choose not to believe.

As I read, I could fell the weight of sin, not actually, but in my imagination, I guess you could say. But I could sense weight in this reading. Folks, what Jesus Christ did for us is more than anyone of us could image.

In this reading and study today, I went fairly quickly because I've read this section of the crucifixion of Christ so many times, I think I've lived it in my spirit. Meditation in God's Word will do that to you.

Therefore I only underlined and circled like, 10 verses, which is significantly less than my normal. As I was looking at the verses highlighted, I said to the Holy Spirit, I can't use any of these, there to contrary, to many people, they would get uncomfortable because there is so much going on that is not good.

Take Heed Lest Any Man Deceive You

JOHN CHOQUE — Tue, 05 Feb 2019 23:25:00 -0700

Greetings!

Before we get started here, I want to define the word "HEED", because it's not a word we hear often in our daily conversations, nor read in any of our daily things, that we read or even look at. However, it is such an important word that I want to define it right off the bat!

HEED: Pay attention; watch out. Genesis 31:24 (As per, "The King James Bible Companion" by David W. Daniels) This is a wonderful tiny book that slips in under the cover of your bible and is easy to quickly look up words used in the King James Bible that we normally don't hear nowadays. It's only 50 cents and can be had at Chick.com (This is where I get all my Gospel Tracts from!) A little side note here: in my SwordSearcher Bible Software, which I'm typing this discourse in, is the Bible Companion! How cool is that?

I think this SwordSearcher is so amazing, I love it...it makes writing these discourses easy for some reason! I'm actually writing the draft of my new book here in the SwordSearcher! Then I transfer it to another cool piece of software called, "Scrivener" ....which that too is an amazing work of art and science.

"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved."
—Acts 2:21 (KJV).

This is the most important decision of your life. You receive eternal life by receiving Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord.

First Shall Be Last

JOHN CHOQUE — Mon, 04 Feb 2019 23:10:00 -0700

Greetings!

Throughout the Word of God there are doctrines of the Kingdom of Heaven. This verse is one of those doctrines. A doctrine according to Webster's 1913 Dictionary: 1. Teaching; instruction. 2. A principle of faith. Also meaning a Precept; a rule to be obeyed. Tenet; Principle; Maxim; Dogma. Doctrine denotes whatever is recommended as a speculative truth to the belief of others.

I find it sort of funny when I try to do things like a scholar or a professor. These things I am not! I'm just a trucker who has preached all over the country at one time or another to other truckers, truck stop waitresses, dock hands, warehouse staff, forklift drivers, loaders of all kinds, even the pickers and migrant help and even lots of prostitutes that frequent the truck stops and rest areas that trucks park in overnight.

So, as you can see, if I talked all high-minded and "scholarly" like who-ever, I would never have gotten to first base! But because I just talk from my heart and from my experiences of living on the road as a trucker, I've been fortunate to relate to hundreds and hundreds over the years and lead hundreds or maybe thousands to the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord knows.

This Kind Can Come Forth

JOHN CHOQUE — Sun, 03 Feb 2019 23:15:00 -0700

Greetings!

The verses for today's study are from Mark 8:22 through Mark 10:19. I use the Alexander Scourby Bible App to track my pace using the 12-Month Reading Plan. Each day is about 86 verses, and takes about 10-13 minutes to listen to. While I'm listening to Scourby read this passage of Scripture, I'm also watching along on the App, on my mobile phone. It's wonderful to hear Scourby read, because I truly enjoy just the reading of Scripture.

I really don't enjoy narrated bibles, or dramatized bibles, nor someone reading, like a minister, and then as they read they put in their own information or understanding or interpretation. I don't like that! I just want the clean Word of God read smoothly and deliberately, enunciating each word correctly and even the titles and names of peoples and places. As you and I know, there are a lot of names that are almost impossible to pronounce!

After about 40 minutes I finish up my study and look for that one verse that I can write and then write a discourse on, like I'm doing here. This is where the Holy Spirit is important, because there are a dozen verses that I really like and could easily talk on or do more study on.

They Considered Not The Miracle

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 02 Feb 2019 22:20:00 -0700

Greetings!

Mark 6:52 (KJV) For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened.

It's just amazing to me! Yep, the moment I sit down at my little desk and pull up the SwordSearcher Bible Software (Link but no sales, I just love it!) to write today's discourse, I then can begin to see, what I'm going to write. Now, you have to understand that just moments earlier, I had no clue on what to write or even if I was going to be able to write anything at all! What amazes me is the action-of-faith!

He Marvelled Because of Their Unbelief

JOHN CHOQUE — Fri, 01 Feb 2019 23:20:00 -0700

Greetings!

The verses that I read today, in my school work, was Mark 4:27 through Mark 6:28 (KJV), 86 verses of Scripture! I go through these selected verses three times plus write a single verse that is made obvious to me, sort of. I Listen to Alexander Scourby read this passage to me, then I Read aloud the same passage, then I Pray (in tongues) the same passage, then lastly I Write over and over the verse that comes to me, about 6 or 7 times.

The total time for this, like today, was 46 minutes. Everyday is a little different. Only once it went over an hour, 67 minutes. The idea is that each section of the four categories is about 10 minutes. For a total of 40 minutes a day, everyday, for the year. This will put me or you or whoever is interested, through the King James Bible three times a year, plus 365 verses will be written out and closely memorized to whatever degree you're able to memorize.

He Might Send Them Forth

JOHN CHOQUE — Sun, 20 Jan 2019 02:20:00 -0700

Greetings!

So why did I have to start this off with this type of prayer? And why would I actually write it out and speak it on the podcast? Why would I do it publicly rather than privately?

I'm hot on this topic because this is such a big deal to me! I looked at all the verses today, and only this one was the one that kept coming to me. Why? I think it's because of yesterday or the day before's podcast and discourse that I wrote on having power when Jesus baptizes us in the Holy Ghost. This was a good example of using this power!

He Shall Baptize You With The Holy Ghost

JOHN CHOQUE — Fri, 18 Jan 2019 01:15:00 -0700

Greetings!

At first glance, this looks like an insignificant verse or maybe one that needs very little education on. Maybe, some say, who needs to study this tiny verse? After all, there's only 16 words in it, and most of them are of little value other than making the sentence sound intelligible. My friends, my dear friends, this type of talk is labeled, 'foolish talk.'

There is never a verse that is insignificant in the Word of God! God's Word is Holy and inspired by God, himself... 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV) "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"

Remembered The Word of Jesus

JOHN CHOQUE — Tue, 15 Jan 2019 22:00:00 -0700

Greetings!

I think this verse has many pieces for all of us to look at and think about. Another thing that comes to my mind, is all the preaching I've heard in 45 years of being with Jesus. I mean, how many sermons have I heard? How many messages have I listened to? How many scriptures have been read from the preacher? It seems like it's an impossible number!

Then I think, well, what do I have to offer? Then suddenly, there's an odd thing that happens, I am given a verse, that I can't remember anyone ever preaching on! Of course, probably all the verses have been preached on, but there are many that we hear over and over. That is what gets to me! I mean really, there are 31,102 verses in the King James Bible! Why do preachers have to keep preaching the same ones? I don't know the answer!

The Flock Shall Be Scattered

JOHN CHOQUE — Mon, 14 Jan 2019 22:20:00 -0700

Greetings!

I just finished doing my school work for today. And this exercise, in the way we have our bible school set up, is really more amazing and fruitful than I ever imagined! Over the last several months I've just been playing around with it. That is not the way to get anything done!

If you remember in yesterday's discourse / podcast, I talked about playing around when the boss leaves, (when I was a kid), and even still I struggle sometimes with just goofing around instead of doing my work. But for some reason, this new year, but actually it all started the first of December, I think, when this thrust of energy pushed me forward to get the job done.

Who Then is a Faithful and Wise Servant

JOHN CHOQUE — Sun, 13 Jan 2019 23:05:00 -0700

Greetings!

The passage of today's school work was from Matthew 23:2 - Matthew 24:48. This entire section of scripture was very heavy! You know, I forget sometimes exactly where I am in reading the bible. So today's reading took me by surprise. I had forgotten that this part of the scripture is the last days of Jesus' ministry on earth. And thus he was speaking some very heavy doomsday preaching and teaching!

I said the word doomsday because Jesus is speaking about the last days. These are the last days that we are living in, but Jesus is also referring to a later book that will be written years down the road by the Apostle John called The Revelation of Jesus Christ.

Ye Do Err Not Knowing The Scriptures

JOHN CHOQUE — Sat, 12 Jan 2019 23:25:00 -0700

Greetings!

Every discourse that I write is on a verse that came from the school work for the day. I found out if I don't do my school work, which is from GEC Bible School, I don't have a scripture verse for the day. I mean, I always have scriptures floating around in my head. But this is different! You can read the entire passage here!

When I get to the fourth part of the school work, I have to write one verse over and over for about ten minutes or so. This is usually about 6 or 7 times that I write the verse. And as I go through this exercise, I get more and more excited! It happens every time! I can feel the power of God! You know, the word of God has power! It's just fantastic!

From Your Hearts Forgive - Matthew 18:35 - Jan 9, 2019 Wednesday

JOHN CHOQUE — Wed, 09 Jan 2019 22:00:00 -0700

Greetings!

When I started today off I was in granny low. I had a very long day, 16 hours yesterday with a tough night's sleep. By the way, if I ever come to your mind, would you mind saying a prayer for me, I sure would appreciate it, sincerely! Thank you.

In fact the entire passage I read today, which was, Matthew 18:21 to Matthew 21:7, is filled with enormous stories or rather parables, stories that tell of and about heaven. This section of Scripture is probably in the last month or so of Jesus' three year ministry. So, the twelve disciples that he's been teaching for these last three years is coming to a head.

Greetings!

I thought that title was a bit unnerving, but when I asked what's the title, I heard the words, 'because of your unbelief!' I sort of chuckled to myself, because this has been an ongoing situation for so many many years! The reason why, is because I'm constantly trying to grow my faith. Getting more faith to me is important to preaching the gospel and to ministering the Spirit. Everything I do is by faith! And of course everything you do is by faith!

Every City or House Divided - Matthew 12:25 - Jan 6, 2019 Sunday

JOHN CHOQUE — Sun, 06 Jan 2019 23:00:00 -0700

Greetings!

I do my school homework every day. In the school work is a section that says to write a scripture verse that stands out to the student. Then write that verse for ten minutes in your journal or notebook or logbook. This goes along with the other daily assignments that are required to be completed each day. Today's verse is Matthew 12:25 (KJV).

However, when it comes to this section that has us writing a verse over and over and over again for at least ten minutes, something peculiar happens to me every time! It's like a fire is started under my behind! In other words, I get extremely excited from inside out. It's as if, my spirit wants to fly! I know this sounds weird!

(Note..this entire episode is written out in a 1,600 word discourse and sitting at JCActs221Blog.com. I made this a hot link that will take you directly to the page of the Podcast Show.)

Thank you for your faith.
