“They lifted their voices to God with one accord…” –Acts 4:24
We pray to advance God’s glory. It all started when we said, ‘God please use me!’. Read the Lord’s Prayer in Matt. 6:9–13. Jesus taught the disciples that the goal of praying is to advance God’s will on earth. He reiterated this in John 15:7–8:“If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit (Gal. 5:22-23), showing yourselves to be my disciples.” He has promised to empower us to serve him in ways that will glorify him, and that is the proof of our being his disciples. That’s an incredible invitation, but the challenge lies in offering ourselves for that service.
Key Word for 2022:
Rise Up Isaiah 60:1-3
I am encouraging everyone young and old here at RPC to join the leadership team for the week of fasting (Why not do it as a family) – whether you fast food all day or just a meal or you fast something else that captivates your time or cravings. Remember this is not just to empty ourselves of things but to restrain, to humble ourselves and create more room for God to have control of our individual lives - so He can be in control of our lives our Church and community.
Focus: Humble yourself (brokenness & unity); Take down the strongman (release the arrow by faith – it’s time); come forth (rise up and take you place in His kingdom) The challenge lies in offering ourselves for His Glory for His service. Are you ready?
‘Together let’s Rise UP in one accord and Advance’
(Something’s cannot be moved or broken except through prayer & fasting)
