(2 Corinthians 10:3) "The world is unprincipled. It’s dog-eat-dog out there! The world doesn’t fight fair. But we don’t live or fight our battles that way—never have and never will. The tools of our trade aren’t for marketing or manipulation, but they are for demolishing that entire massively corrupt culture. We use our powerful God-tools for smashing warped philosophies, tearing down barriers erected against the truth of God, fitting every loose thought and emotion and impulse into the structure of life shaped by Christ. Our tools are ready at hand for clearing the ground of every obstruction and building lives of obedience into maturity.”
As the Apostle Paul puts it, people are being manipulated by clever marketing and manipulation to continue living under warped philosophies. But that’s NOT us! Our faith is in Jesus, who has promised that He WILL deliver us and present us perfect to GOD. Hallelujah!
To that end, I enjoyed a perfect coffee and chat with a lovely brother from our local church at a local cafe this morning as part of getting to know each other better in our men's group.
We ended by praying together for the lost sheep in our community whom GOD, in Jesus, was calling to join us.
Even though people were constantly wandering around us, he showed no timidity while he prayed, and actually, what struck me the most was the heartfelt intensity of his prayer. It actually left me feeling (knowing) that GOD had answered it...!
GOD, who created all our hearts, says, “Come to Me, my dear Child, and I will show you how to break free and live! Do your part and trust in Me enough to honour Me.”
Heavenly Father, giver of life and health: Comfort and relieve those who are sick amongst us—Baby Pasley, Louise, Betty, Maria, Lorenzo, Matteo, Romeo, Sebastian, Nathaniel, Marissa, Ron, Amy, Franca, Daniela, Kristina, Paul, Roger, Alastair, Ian, Alex, Alexander, Lynette, James, Keiron, Samantha, Jay, Liliana, Maria, Susanna, and those you bring to our minds right now… Please grant your healing power to those who minister to all the sick among us so they may be strengthened in their weakness and have confidence in your loving care. We pray this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
