Moving Forward Together in Changing Times
January 9th, 2009 Posted in UncategorizedRev. Raymond Culpepper, the General Overseer of the International Church of God is calling us to prayer.
My heart is moved to full agreement with the passion and call to our church family to seek the face of God and to restore our emphasis on Prayer, Great Commision, and the Trust factor. From this web site you will find a link to the International site where the details of our Overseers call can be found.
We have devoted the entire month to the ministry of prayer. We have learned greatly from the wed. night video teaching from Dr. P. Douglas Small.
I am commited to creating a new culture of prayer at Jubilee Family Church. To get started, I am renewing my own personal and private disciplines, studies, and practices of prayer. There is an apostolic calling from the book of Acts that stirs my heart. Acts 6:4 we will give ourselves continually to prayer and the ministry of the Word.
Changing times require power from an unchanging source.
Prayer is the power that moves us into the presence of a mighty God. Prayer will make us presentable to the Holy One who desires communion with His creation.
I am praying for a spirit of prayer to come over our whole congregation. We need a revival of personal and corporate prayer.
Our forward movement will be accelerated by fervent prayer. Our decline into weakness and impotence will be reversed by powerful praying.
God help us pray!
Rom. 8 tells us that the Holy Spirit will do just that!
Calling all believers…..Pray, pray, pray.
Verla and I love you.
Pastor Crowley
