How are you doing? I trust you are great. Was just singing this song:
Thank you Jesus
Thank you my Lord
Whatever i am now
It is by your grace
Many are dying
Many are perishing
Whatever i am now
It is by your grace.
Just watch or listen to radio and TV, you will appreciate the little you have. There are children dying of hunger and disease. I want to encourage you today to give. We are all like struggling to get a career going, be it at work or in business etc but we just need to pause to take a look at those that do not have anything. I heard a story yday! Someone said he was freezing in the snow at the bus stop. He had just relocated and was going to work but didn't have a jacket. Someone saw him, ran home to get an extra jacket he had, and came back to the bus stop to give it to him.
Moral of the story? Whatever little it may be. We ought to help our neighbour. Life right now can be so consuming with bills, school fees, mortgages, little things like bus fair or what you desire to own, whatever responsibility it may be; let's remember to reach out with the little we have.
We are currently on a 12 day fast in my church (Dec1- Dec12) for every month of the year in 2008. 2008 is going to be a year full of extra blessings by the grace of God. This is the time to deal with issues in prayer and to wait on God and seek His face concerning what to do and what not to do for 2008. If you're not saved this is the time to ask Jesus into your life or if you're saved and maybe you need to rededicate your life to Him please do, cos the salvation is pertinent to the fasting and prayer. Everything I prayed for last year concerning my personal life this year, God accomplished in 2007. I will encourage you to do it this year.
Each day start you can start your fasting at midnight and then break at 3pm the following day. Those who can take it till 6pm should. It's day 3 already (sorry i posted late) (sorry i posted late) but you can continue. So today we're praying for March 2008. Pray throughout the day whenever you can till you break. The Holy Spirit will guide you.
"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force" Matthew 11:12
"Let the redeemed of the LORD say so..." Psalm 107:2
"Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting" Matthew 17:21
"For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers:..." 1 Peter 3:12
May God help us all in Jesus mighty name.
