Amazed but not surprised
To say we had an amazing service yesterday at New Life would be an understatement. The service began on the heels of a 24 hour period of prayer by people in the New Life family and WOW... Before the service even began you could sense a "holy anticipation" and a special anointing.
The message was focused on what FAITH is. Hebrews 11:6 says, "Without faith it is impossible to please God" With that in mind, what evidence is there in our lives that we are walking and living by faith?
With only 1 week to go in our Building For Life campaign, I'm expecting God to speak to His people clearly, and then have His people who recognize His voice simply trust Him to follow through on His word. This deep seated confidence in God is the heart of faith.
By the way, 4 people responded to the invitation to surrender their lives to the Lordship of Christ!! That NEVER gets old! At the conclusion of the service I introduced 6 people who were about to be baptized, but then felt prompted to ask if anyone else who's received Christ and hasn't been baptized yet, wanted to. 5 more people spontaneously got out of their chairs and came forward and boldly said, "Today is their day to get baptized" Going home in wet clothes was a small price to pay for what's ahead for them. WE SERVE A GREAT GOD!!!
