JESUS IS YOUR TROUBLEBREAKER: an ever present help in your time of need!
FOR A WHILE, I LET AN ACQUAINTANCE of mine say to me frequently: “Hi, Trouble!” Then I got to thinking (a very good thing, but only as I think and meditate with the mind of Christ) that I do not cause trouble. I imitate Christ. As the Apostle Paul tells me to imitate him, just as he also imitates Christ, I want to and strive to do exactly what Jesus does! This is not arrogance – it is wisdom: that is, to fully agree with Jesus Christ, Son of God, Son of Man, Coming King – Great I AM!
YOU SEE, BELOVED, I am not trouble and I refuse to be associated with causing upset and/or worry! The acquaintance doesn’t know me. He knows me not as a close friend. He may have some knowledge about me in a short social way; but my friends stick closer than brothers; and God has impressed upon me to not let this acquaintance, nor any other person in my life, call me / name me: trouble. I am not.
FOR TROUBLE, BELOVED, IS NOTHING to be uplifted. I don’t want to disturb God’s Holy Word through sin! I don’t want to show people worry is something to be cherished and embraced! And certainly, I don’t want to go against God’s will – for He is God and I am not! I don’t want to unnerve a single precious creation of God. With all my spirit, soul and body I want for them what I have from God: joy unspeakable!
PLEASE READ THESE SCRIPTURES SLOWLY:
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls. (1 Peter 1:3-9)
THE BIBLE CLEARLY IMPLORES US to choose godly companions. Here is just one of these examples: One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. (Proverbs 18:24)
IN MY PRISON MINISTRY I have never heard one Christian (Yes! Christian!) tell me that no one ever gave him bad advice or was a grievous influence to his lifestyle. On the contrary, most of them (just like those who have never been incarcerated) know that they know that they know that they know – they would do some things (perhaps many things) differently – AND – had they not taken ungodly counsel – it is very likely they would have not gone the way they had! It is imperative to live, breathe and have the correct lifestyle and deathstyle – choosing fellowship only with godly companions, remaining ever in love with the God of all creation.
NEVER FORGETTING we are responsible for our choices: detrimental and victorious, God tells us not to be led down the wrong path, for it is wide. DO NOT BE MISLED: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. (Matthew 7:13-14)
“Bad company corrupts good character.” Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God—I say this to your shame.
(1 Corinthians 15:33-34)
IT IS A CHOICE of your everyday lifestyle and deathstyle.
JESUS IS YOUR TROUBLEBREAKER!
For this reason also [because He obeyed and so completely humbled Himself], God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow [in submission], of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess and openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord (sovereign God), to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9-11 AMP)
satan IS DEFEATED! JESUS HAS crushed his head! The first biblical prophecy cannot go unnoticed:
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.” (Genesis 3:15)
NOR CAN the last biblically words spoken by Jesus, our Alpha and Omega:
“Yes, I am coming soon.” (Revelation 22:20)
JESUS IS PRAYING FOR HIS CHURCH:
“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one—I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. “Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.” (John17:20-26)
THE UNBELIEVERS WILL RECEIVE THEIR DESIRE – THE FIERY, ETERNAL ABSENCE FROM GOD:
Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. Anyone whose name was not found written in the book (Revelation 20:11-15)
SATAN WILL FOREVER BE TORMENTED DAY AND NIGHT:
When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (Revelation 20:7-10)
MY JESUS, THE SON OF MAN, broke the power of sin and of death. Christ conquered the grave and literally bought us all back from the kingdom of darkness. It is a choice to receive His payment. satan IS defeated and filled with wrath. Jesus Christ took what you dare not keep. You must be saved and you must remain saved!
As Christians throughout the world celebrate Easter,
remember: τετέλεσται – “It is finished.”
JESUS IS OUR TROUBLEBREAKER!
SCRIPTURAL TRUTHS FROM THIS “JOY STORY”:
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. (Psalm 46:1-3)
The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, for, “Who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ. (1 Corinthians 1:15-16)
I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you. On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. I cling to you; your right hand upholds me. (Psalm 63:2-8)
When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. (John 19:30)

Growing up in a home without the love for God, an invalid father, heavy financial hardships, and tremendous (sometimes dangerous) discord is always difficult. Add on to that extreme shyness, a feeling of inferiority, and some may think this girl was rejected. But God’s hand was on her and His heart was for her. Today, Ann Marie Turner has performed many great services in Jesus’ name for the love of God and man; and for herself! She has ministered in the male correctional for over ten years. Along with this website, Ann is the author of Joy Stories, Volume One and The Free Incarcerated Man. Writing about the joy of the Lord and the victory that is available for a willing soul is one of Ann’s now greatest joys! Ann’s prayer for you is to overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony. Celebrate the God of the Bible and your personal victories in Christ unceasingly! Revelation 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
