31 Day Prayer Challenge


Hey Everyone!

I want to issue an end of year challenge! God's Word says, 20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. (Ephesians 3:20-21).

There are 31 days in December and I want you to ask and think big! God says that He can do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think! So that means that your "big" is actually small in the sight of God. So go ahead and pray 31 big, humanly impossible, mind blowing prayers! One prayer for each day of December and watch God work! Go ahead and pray for that family member who you think is too far gone, pray for a child, pray for a husband or wife, pray for a job, pray for a means of funding your education, pray for funds to go on that mission trip you have been wanting to go on, pray for open doors in your life and the life of those you love, pray for deliverance! Pray big! Pray specific and more importantly pray in POWER! The verse says according to the power that works in us! That POWER is the HOLY SPIRIT! Pray away folks and I pray that God blows your mind! Also don't forget to write down your prayers so you remember what you asked for, so that God may get the GLORY! Remember the verse says to Him be glory!

Go ahead and pray and watch God work! I am praying with you! I can't wait to see and hear what God does!

Oh Give Thanks, unto the Lord; for He is Good

It is that time again, Thanksgiving!!!! It is one of my favorite holidays. It is time to eat, fellowship with loved ones and eat! This is a day our nation has given us to give thanks. But we know as believers everyday is a day to give thanks. Shower the Lord with Thanksgiving and praise because He is worthy. He saved us from sin and death. He gave us His only Son to be a sacrifice so that we may have life (John 3:16). He has given us freedom, power and authority in Christ. He has given us healing, love, peace and a sound mind (Isaiah 53:5/2 Timothy 1:7). He has given us joy, rest and forgiveness. He is the ultimate giver! He gives to us everyday! So He deserves all the thanks and all the praise everyday.

We thank you Jesus for your love and sacrifice that you have given so freely to us. You paid the ultimate price so that we would have life and have it more abundantly. You delivered us out of sin and hell. You have healed us, redeemed us, forgiven us and set us free. Thank you for keeping us, providing for us and never leaving us. Thank you for being the lover of our soul and advocate. We love you and sing praises to your Holy Name.
