    KJM Ministering To Jail Inmates

    Some of the KJM core principles, in how we dial-in at the jail cells
    Pick Up Your Cross

    Pick Up Your Cross

    I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me (Galatians 2:20).

    Prayer & Faith

    Prayer & Faith

    Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked (Ephesians 6:16).

    Experiencing GOD

    Experiencing GOD

    One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple (Psalm 27:4).

    Service, and Caring for the Weak

    Service, and Caring for the Weak

    26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; 27 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: 28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many (Matthew 20:26-28).
