Believing Abundantly and Taking the Cup of Salvation with God's Faith.

Matthew 7:7-11 TPT
“Ask, and the gift is yours. Seek, and you’ll discover. Knock, and the door will be opened for you.

For every persistent one will get what he asks for. Every persistent seeker will discover what he longs for. And everyone who knocks persistently will one day find an open door.

“Do you know of any parent who would give his hungry child, who asked for food, a plate of rocks instead? Or when asked for a piece of fish, what parent would offer his child a snake instead?

If you, imperfect as you are, know how to lovingly take care of your children and give them what’s best, how much more ready is your heavenly Father to give wonderful gifts to those who ask him?”

Today the Father Rejoices & Sings over His Children In Christ.

Zephaniah 3:16-17 AMPC
"In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear not, O Zion. Let not your hands sink down or be slow and listless.

The Lord your God is in the midst of you, a Mighty One, a Savior [Who saves]! He will rejoice over you with joy; He will rest [in silent satisfaction] and in His love He will be silent and make no mention [of past sins, or even recall them]; He will exult over you with singing."

The Blessing in Time for Labor Day.

At the end of last week we were blessed to receive a much needed new 12ft x 18ft U.S. Flag. We want to thank the Flag Store on Commercial Street in Branson and Kimberling City American Legion for their donations to help purchase a much needed new flag just in time to fly over the Labor Day Weekend!

After our recent retirement of 2 flags that had been mended by the blessing of Straightline Canvas in Kimberling, we now have only the current new flag with no backups. We are in great need of additional new 12ft x 18ft flags to keep a rotation going forward when flags need to be taken down for mending.

With a recent price increase, these flags now cost the ministry $470 each with our tax exempt discount. On average a flag can fly 2-3 months before mending assuming no storm damage shortening that time. We can only mend the same flag twice before needing to retire it.

12 million people annually drive by the Cross and the Flag which means on average 33,000 people a day are encouraged and strengthened by the view.

We invite you to visit the Cross and drive up to walk out around it and the Flagpole as you enjoy Labor Day. The Cross driveway is just past the Park n Ride entry of Route 160 heading towards Reeds Spring off the U.S. 65 exit.

If you would like to help us with replacement flags, our donation box is on the walkway out to the Cross. The donation box also has electronic scan QR codes for electronic donations through Tithely or you can give through this link:

Tax Deductible Donations for the Cross can also be sent by mail to:

We greatly appreciate your help keeping a Flag flying at the Teardrop Cross. Thank you and have a Great Labor Day with your Family & Friends!

The All Consuming Fire of God's Love.

Exodus 3:1-5 NLT
"One day Moses was tending the flock of his father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian. He led the flock far into the wilderness and came to Sinai, the mountain of God.

There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a blazing fire from the middle of a bush. Moses stared in amazement. Though the bush was engulfed in flames, it didn’t burn up.

“This is amazing,” Moses said to himself. “Why isn’t that bush burning up? I must go see it.”

When the Lord saw Moses coming to take a closer look, God called to him from the middle of the bush, “Moses! Moses!”

“Here I am!” Moses replied.

“Do not come any closer,” the Lord warned. “Take off your sandals, for you are standing on holy ground."

Everything we need is In Christ Jesus.

Matthew 11:25-30 TPT
"Then Jesus exclaimed, “Father, thank you, for you are Lord, the Supreme Ruler over heaven and earth! And you have hidden the great revelation of your authority from those who are proud and think they are wise and unveiled it instead to little children.

Yes, Father, you’ve chosen this gracious plan to extend your kingdom. You have entrusted me with all that you are and all that you have. No one fully and intimately knows the Son except the Father. And no one fully and intimately knows the Father except the Son. But the Son is able to unveil the Father to anyone he chooses.

“Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis. Simply join your life with mine. Learn my ways and you’ll discover that I’m gentle, humble, easy to please. You will find refreshment and rest in me. For all that I require of you will be pleasant and easy to bear.”

All Healing comes from God our Father through Christ Jesus, His Son.

Acts 3:12-21, 24-26 TPT
"With the crowd surrounding him, Peter said to them all, “People of Israel, listen to me! Why are you so amazed by this healing? Why do you stare at us? We didn’t make this crippled man walk by our own power or authority. The God of our ancestors, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, has done this.

For he has glorified his Servant Jesus, the one you denied to Pilate’s face when he decided to release him—and you insisted that he be crucified. You rejected the one who is holy and righteous, and instead begged for a murderer to be released. You killed the Prince of Life! But God raised him from the dead, and we stand here as witnesses to that fact.

Faith in Jesus’ name has healed this man standing before you. It is the faith that comes through believing in Jesus’ name that has made the crippled man walk right in front of your eyes!

“My fellow Jews, I realize that neither you nor your leaders realize the grave mistake you made. But in spite of what you’ve done, God has fulfilled what he foretold through the prophets long ago about the sufferings of his Anointed One.

And now you must repent and turn back to God so that your sins will be removed, and so that times of refreshing will stream from the Lord’s presence.

And he will send you Jesus, the Messiah, the appointed one. For he must remain in heaven until the restoration of all things has taken place, fulfilling everything that God said long ago through his holy prophets.

“In fact, every prophet from the time of Samuel onward has prophesied of these very days! And you are heirs of their prophecies and of the covenants God made with your fathers when he promised Abraham, ‘Your descendant will bring blessing to all the people on the earth.’

“Now that God raised up his Son, he has chosen to send him first to you that he might bless you by turning each one of you from your wickedness.”

The Awesome Power of our Identity In Christ: Righteousness

Isaiah 54:17 AMPC
"But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong.

This [peace, righteousness, security, triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord [those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced]; this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me [this is that which I impart to them as their justification], says the Lord."

Thankful Hearts that Trust God are Open Doors of Salvation.

Today, please take a moment to be thankful for your blessings in every area. Many wander through life in a fog with great weight on their soul and angry frustration in their circumstances. That weight, anger & frustration can blind them & even cause them to be angry when the door to their escape arrives. Please cover them in Grace and Love - they are just in a fog searching for rest like we were.

"So we see that they were not able to enter [into His rest—the promised land] because of unbelief and an unwillingness to trust in God."
HEBREWS 3:19 AMP

Every morning is a New Beginning of Grace.

2 Peter 1:3-4 TPT
"Everything we could ever need for life and godliness has already been deposited in us by his divine power.

For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a glorious manifestation of his goodness.

As a result of this, he has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises we can experience partnership with the divine nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world."

The Atmosphere we breathe in Heaven: Grace.

One of the great lessons of the Door in the base of the Teardrop Cross is its physical representation of Jesus as Grace. Without breathing in and out an atmosphere of Grace, we will never know God the Father as his core characteristic of Love. Something to think on.

Jesus said to him, “ I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
JOHN 14:6 AMP
