II Peter (KJV)
19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
We Believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten son of God and that He died on the cross to forgive the sins of the world. That the only way to the Father is through His Son. That Christ rose from the dead, ascended into heaven and will return at the 7th trump, and not before. We believe praying as Christ taught, asking that God's will be done, for he knows what is best for our lives.. More to come...

God's Letter to You is currently an online ministry that desires to clarify many misconceptions regarding Biblical teachings. Daystar Ministry plans to branch out to deliver the Word, the TRUTH to as many of our brothers and sisters as possible. There is a great thirst in this end generation, a thirst for knowledge.
So many of us have wondered what our purpose is here on earth. Some feel that they always need more than what they have. Others have come to the realization that no matter the number of accomplishments they achieve, they still have a void in their lives. Some fill these voids through substance abuse, etc... if only they knew how God can fill those voids and show them true peace and contentment no matter what situation they find themselves in. That is our mission.
Lasty, we are a Ministry who feels it necessary to expand on the many teachings of prosperity. Prayer is vitally important to your walk with the Lord, however if you want your prayers answered, if you want to be blesses by our Father, you must adhear to his commandments. There are no "Free-Rides", we need to earn it!
We look forward to bringing you the Truth and ask for your support in delivering the Good Word to our lost brothers and sisters.
Glory to God the Father, forever! And many blessings to you and yours.

1 John 5:14 (King James Version)
14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
Why should we ALWAYS pray that Gods will be done?
In Mathew 6, Jesus Christ himself taught us how to pray
9 Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11Give us this day our daily bread.
12And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
Jesus taught us not only The Lords Prayer in the scripture from Mathew 6 but also an example of how we should say ALL of our prayers. Why is it important to ask that Gods will be done even when we are praying for things we want such as; a new job, healthier relationships and even healing?
When you are a true believer in The Lord God and Jesus Christ you know that God is Sovereign and he wants the best for us, His children. If you have children you know that you only want the best for them, you want to make them happy and want to give them what they ask for. But I highly doubt that you give them EVERYTHING that they ask for, do you?
For example, if your 8 year old boy wants a pocket knife because one of his friends just got one, however you dont feel that he is ready for the responsibility that comes along with it, I highly doubt you will honor his request. As a parent you know what is best for your child and you dont want to give them something that they are not ready for or that they could hurt themselves with.
I believe God works in the very same way. God is the creator of our very souls; we existed with Him in heaven before being born of woman into these fleshly bodies. God IS our Father and He knows what is best for us.
If we think like the child in the situation above, we may be upset and angry that we didnt get what we asked for but what if you try, with our fleshly minds we can only do that, try, to put ourselves in Gods shoes?
As the Father and Creator of all, God hears our prayers and our requests. And as the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, He knows what is best for us and wants us on the path that he has chosen for us during this dispensation of time. God knows that sometimes the answer to our prayers has to be, NO.
When you think that He hasnt heard your prayer, God may be answering you in this way;
No my child, I know what your future holds. I know what path is best for you. I know that some things that you are asking for may hurt you. I know that some things will distract you from what I have planned for you. And lastly, I know how much love I have for you and I only want what is best for you. I am your Father and you are My child. If you trust in Me, then ask that My will be done. Show Me that you trust in Me and My promises. Doing this will test your faith in Me and will strengthen the bond between us forever. And if the time comes when it is right to bless you with what you have prayed for, I will give it to thee, with Love. ~ GOD
2 Corinthians 4:4 (KJV)
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Ezekiel 13
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of the LORD;
3 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.
5 Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.
6 They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.
7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, The LORD saith it; albeit I have not spoken?
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord GOD.
9 And mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see vanity, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
10 Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter:
11 Say unto them which daub it with untempered morter, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it.
12 Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in my fury to consume it.
14 So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered morter, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
15 Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered morter, and will say unto you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;
16 To wit, the prophets of Israel which prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord GOD.
17 Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them,
18 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?
19 And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies?
20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.
21 Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
22 Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:
23 Therefore ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
2 Thessalonians 2:1-9 (KJV)
1Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
5Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
7For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
8And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
It should come as no surprise that many in this generation are looking for the easiest way through life. So how fitting it is for Satan to offer us an easy way through the tribulation? Some say "You dont have to learn about Revelation" (which means the Revealing), "as a righteous Christian you will be raptured away before satans tribulation on earth". "He will FLY US AWAY". How convenient, right? Hold your horses! You may want to read what Christ himself has to say about this before you start packing your proverbial bags.
When we look at scripture we can see how Satan operates (with his lies) and how he tried to tempt Christ Himself, he tried to offer Christ an easy way out of what was to come.
Matthew 4:8-9 (King James Version)
8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
When confronted with the lies of Satan, we too should invoke our God-given power, in Jesus Christs name, to tell Satan to
"Get thee hence" or "Get away from me and take your lies with you, in Jesus Christs name".
Jesus calls satan the father of lies. The creator of lies in John 8:44
Ephesians 6:11-14 stand against the wiles of the devil and to withstand in the evil day.
The lie in this message is the lie of the "pre-tribulation rapture". Satan is using the so-called rapture to allow some Christians to believe that there is an easy way out of the tribulation period to come. Like Satan usually does, he through his puppets in the pulpits, misquotes scripture just enough to mislead Gods children into thinking that they can avoid any hardships or avoid having to prove their loyalty to the Lord God during the tribulation period.
What is also taught from these pulpits is that satan is going to come to kill Christians, to scare them so that they will want to believe that there is an easy way out. Christ in the scriptures makes it very clear that Satan will come pretending to be Christ, to deceive everyone. How then would he pull off killing Christians, who would believe that he was Christ if he were doing that?
Satan is coming to deceive, like he did from the start with Adam and Eve, like he tried with Christ himself. Satan will come before Christs return "with all power and signs and lying wonders" as it is written in 2 Thessalonians 2 1:9. Satan will use signs, lightning with a snap of his fingers or curing disease for example, and lies, calling himself savior and twisting scripture just enough to fool you into following him.
Please read the following scripture very carefully and remember, through the Word, God has told us ALL THINGS! This scripture warns us that the TRUE CHRIST does not come until there be a great fallaway first, to the son of perdition which is Satan.
1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders
I hope that it is apparent in that scripture that Satan will arrive first, exhaulting himself as Christ, God himself. But soon after the True Christ will come and reveal the Wicked (Satan) and destroy him.
We are also told of this by Jesus Christ himself!
Mathew 24:
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
It is not necessary for true followers of Christ to be afraid for he tells us in scripture; 1 Chronicles 16:22 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. The enemy cannot touch us if we have the Truth in our minds and hearts!
And GOD Himself has warned us of false teachers that would use the so-called "Rapture" among other things, to deceive us into thinking that we can fly to save our souls. Ony Christ can do the saving! God says He is against those to teach false doctrine.
Ezekiel 13:
23 Therefore ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand : and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
Know the Truth, spot the lies, and fear not! God is on our side!
Matthew 6:33 (King James Version)
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Ecclesiastes 1:2 (King James Version)
2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.

In this day and age we are bombarded with television shows about celebrities, their money, their homes and their vehicles that cost more than our houses. You can't turn on the TV without coming across these shows.
The media shoves this messages (among many others) down your throat; What we have is not what "they" have, what we have is not as good as what "they" have and life is not going to be complete until we have the things and lifestyle that "they" have. Ask yourself this; What is it that "they" don't have and which is more important?
Many feel that if they could only make 5,000 more a year they would be happy. But within a year or two of meeting that goal, and increasing their living expenses by extending themselves for more things with that new found money, soon end up saying; "if only I could make 5,000 more a year". You get the idea.....
I'm not about to say that the desire for a nice home, a good job or a successful business is wrong, but if you have these desires, does it take precedence to your relationship with God? Do you put God first? The bible says that if you first seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness, God knows all of your needs and will give them to you. Dont read over the qualifier, seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. Now this doesn't mean that we will always get everything we ask for but when we seek Him first, the things that are important to us have a tendency to change.
In the book of Ecclesiastes we read the words of King Solomon. Solomon had everything; servants, riches, musicians, livestock etc. And as he progressed in years he realized that ALL was vanity. To say all is vanity is to say that all is meaningless and empty. All of these riches will not bring happiness that lasts. There will more than likely be no remembrance of your achievements in future generations and most importantly, you can't take any of it with you when you return to the Father.
What is important? It is our works and our reverence to God. Only a relationship with Christ can truly fulfill our hearts and minds.
I encourage all of you to read the great book of Ecclesiastes. Ecclesiastes teaches those of us in this very materialistic world how to find real happiness and what really matters during our existence in these flesh bodies. This book will teach you how to make better decisions in your life.
Again, Ecclesiastes was written to us from the wisest and the richest King of Jerusalem. He had every materialistic thing yet he was not happy or fulfilled.
You CAN NOT fill the emptiness in your hearts and minds with materialistic things, no matter how much of it you collect!
Matthew 6:19-28 (King James Version)
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

When does Life Begin?
Ye Ask Not!
There are many passages in the Bible that speak this Truth. However, I want to draw your attention to Luke 11:9 and Mathew 6:33.
Luke 11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
After reading the two scriptures above ask yourself, in Luke 11:9 what is it that we are to SEEK? The answer is given in Matthew 6:33, Seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God, and His righteousness, THEN all these things shall be added unto you. You should plainly see the qualifier here. It didn't say ask and I will give it to you!
Seek God and His Truths. Spend time with Him every day by studying the letter He sent to us. True Wisdom is knowing the Word of God.
God IS our Father and He desires a relationship with YOU, His child. Talk with Him today and watch how He will work in your life.
~ God Bless
