Words of Encouragement

 

July - 15 - 2007

 

As those living in the last days, each believer, young and old, male and female, must be Spirit-led and Spirit-empowered to give his or her personal testimony to the grace of God given us in Jesus Christ. As Jesus prayed for us before his death, we must be united across the gender barriers, across the age barriers, and across the racial barriers if the world is to truly know that God sent his Son as Savior of the world!

Let us read Acts 2:17.

And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, and Your old men shall dream dreams.

Let us go to our heavenly Father in prayer.

God of all nations, please break down the barriers that divide us and that blunt the wonderful message of your grace. Pour out your Spirit upon us and convict us of our prejudice and selfishness, and replace it with your transcending love. Forgive us, Lord, when our own shortsightedness and selfishness interferes with the world seeing a united Church proclaiming Jesus as Lord and Savior.

In Jesus' name we pray.

Amen.
