Day 6 of Prayer and Fasting

Day 6. Prayer and Fasting. Pick the meals and days you will fast. Use that time to pray. When something or someone comes to your mind, speak a word or two to The Lord right then! Learn to have an immediate contact with God. Maybe think of it as ‘texting’. A short note of what you want to convey. God loves our thoughts during the day. He is always ready to dispense his justice and attention to our requests. Pray…

day 5 prayer and fasting

Hello Church, This is day 5 of our first week to fast and pray as the season of the school year begins. The school year is the time to “train yourself for Godliness” as well. 1 Timothy 4.7. Godliness brings us God’s blessings and increases our world impact. Maybe you think you placed yourself in the position you are in right now. Maybe you alone did that. But likely, God’s hand was also in it. For sure, God’s plan is…

Unshakable Hope! Session 11.

Hello Church. Unshakable Hope! This Sunday is Session 11. There is no condemnation in Christ. I can’t wait to explore the truth of this promise with you Sunday. This is the story that you and I could never have written and never have imagined. This promise is one that only God could’ve come up with. Man has demonstrated how he would figure out the balance sheets of heaven and God’s way is far superior and unique. No person thought this up.…

Pray for our new Associate Minister

Please join us in praying for who the Lord will bring as our new Associate Minister. There are some specific qualities we want you to be praying for over the next couple weeks/months as we search for a new Associate Minister. The third quality; For him to be A Loving Minister: It can be very easy to “do ministry” without loving people. It is easy to see people as projects that you want to fix rather than children you deeply…

Our culture is reeling from the demise of biblical literacy… you’ll find yourself at the epicenter of God’s solution in your own circle of influence. God has designed you uniquely for such a time as…
