We pray that this newsletter and its contents that we share will help you on your daily journey with Christ, causing you to grow in the ways of the Lord.

The giftings of the fivefold ministry (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher) should have one purpose, and that is the teaching and equipping of the saints until we come into unity.

This is why we teach so that you can grow stronger in your faith until unity comes in the body of Christ. Take what you have learned and share it with others so that we can further the kingdom for Jesus Christ.

DRAINING THE TANK

________________

As we leave the old year of 2025 and prepare for the new year of 2026, the Lord showed me this analogy.

If you have ever had a generator that runs on gasoline, then you must know that you cannot leave any gasoline in it for extended periods of time after being used. If you do, it will clog the engine and could ruin the generator.

When you are ready to store the generator for an extended period of time, you must “drain the tank.” You must run the generator until it uses up the gas in the engine and shuts off. The tank must be drained before being put into storage. Then, when it comes out of storage, you can put fresh, clean gasoline into it and it will run smoothly.

Some of you feel so drained that you can hardly lift one foot up and take another step. You are tired because you have been running in “full throttle.” Now you have no energy or even desire to do what you have been doing. You feel like your “tank” is running on empty. You may wonder what in the world is going on, and wonder why you do not have the energy to do things like you had before.

Do not walk in fear over this. God is allowing the “old” things of your life to run out like that generator. You need a period of rest before he “fills you up” and starts a new assignment. You are feeling drained because He is removing the “old” to make way for the new. Again, I must emphasize that it is a time for you to rest. Yes, there is work to be done, but it will be there when God is ready to “fill you up” with the new.

This is not a time of demanding answers from God. It is a time of trusting that He alone knows what is best for you. Many of you never take time to rest, and He is calling you to rest now, before a new season. God cannot work through you the way he wants when your body, mind, and emotions are “running dry.” Give Him the opportunity now to minister to you, and wait for Him to bring the timing to minister through you. Yes, you feel drained, but use this time to rest, trusting in His plan, and not yours.

God isn’t through with you; he is renewing you.

THE CHRISTMAS SERIES – PART 9

MARY, JESUS, SIMEON, AND ANNA

We often speak of the shepherds and the wise men who worshipped the young Messiah, Jesus. Luke speaks of two others who also recognized Him and worshipped Him, Simeon, and Anna.

A woman was considered “unclean” after childbirth for seven days, and during that time was separated from everyone. On the eighth day she would take her son for circumcision; that also begins 33 days of purification where she is to not touch any hallowed (holy) thing nor enter the Temple sanctuary. After that total of 40 days, she then must present herself at the Temple to make atonement for cleansing with a burnt offering of a lamb, pigeons, or turtledoves.

Mary presented herself in Jerusalem to fulfill her cleansing sacrifice, accompanied by Joseph and infant Jesus, who was now 40 days old. There she encountered Simeon and Anna.

Simeon (Luke 2:25-40) was a devout man, just and righteous, who had been waiting for “the consolation of Israel.” The Holy Ghost was upon him and had revealed that he would not die until he had seen the Lord’s Christ. On that particular day, the Holy Spirit led Simeon to the Temple. He saw the child, took Jesus in his arms, and blessed God. His life was now fulfilled.

Simeon then prophesied that this child was “prepared for the face of all people, a light to lighten the gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.” (Luke 2:31-32.) He also said in vs. 34, “this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel” which was fulfilled with the fall in 70 A.D. and rising in 1948 A.D.

God had fulfilled His promise to Simeon. He will also fulfill His promises to us children today as we are obedient to His call and His ways.

Stay tuned. Tomorrow we will discuss Anna.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

As we close out 2025 and move into 2026, this is not the time to look back at your mistakes, your victories and even your loss. It is a time to move forward and expect things to be just as God promises in his Word. He has a plan for you for the coming year, and it is good. Now, listen, listen, listen. Watch and Pray. Be ready for the waves of glory and destruction, knowing that you were chosen for such a time as this!

Wednesday Thought For Today

This year is closing. BUT the New Year is opening up before you. New opportunities to do what God has called you to do. New possibilities to make new friends, to mend broken relationships, to give your love to someone. The road before you is open. Allow God to guide you as you enter into your New Year.

APOSTLE PAT MURRAY

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

Our greatest comfort in this world full of problems is KNOWING that; Our Father GOD is STILL in CONTROL of things today. Therefore you can turn to HIM when the storms of sorrow threatens to take away your joy and your peace. In fact, there are times when it seems as if the foundation on which you stand is being taken out from under you. Oh, but I’ve got news for the devil and his sidekicks; For in times like this we too can…Run to THE ROCK Himself and that Rock is Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior. Remember David the young shepherd boy who was destined for The Throne wrote these comforting words in Psalms 18:2…”The LORD is my protector; He is my Savior and my strong tower. God is my protection, and with Him I am safe. He protects me like a shield; He daily defends me and keeps me safe”. Today you too are safe in knowing that you have the same ROCK to depend on; So get yourself ready to run to HIM when everything around you starts going wrong. Indeed we too can go to that same WORD, READ it and STAND ON ITS PROMISES; While knowing our GOD will NEVER fail us…So let’s be expecting to have a Blessed Day.

Prioritize whatever will draw you closer to God in 2026 and distance yourself from distractions and hindrances to what will "stunt" your spiritual growth.
