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.

THE LIFE OF SAMUEL

PART 4 – HIS FOLLY

_____________________________


We are all subject to making foolish choices by our own human reasoning. Samuel was no exception. We see in 1 Samuel 8:1-6 that when he was old and nearing the end of his life that he decided to appoint his two sons, Joel and Abiah, as the judges over Israel in his place. He made this decision on his own, following the custom of succession, without first consulting God.


His sons took that authority and abused it by taking bribes and rendering perverse judgments as seen in 1 Samuel 8:1-5. This caused the elders of Israel to complain to Samuel. They demanded that Samuel give them a king to rule over them. They wanted to be like all the heathen nations around them. Samuel sought the Lord about it, and the LORD told him that he could give them their desire for a king. But this would come with a warning of all the trouble they would experience at the hand of an earthly king.


Saul, the son of Kish, a mighty man of valour, was searching for his father’s lost asses. When he could not find them, he went to the house of a seer whom he had heard about, namely Samuel.


Saul communed with Samuel who then anointed him with oil, and the Spirit of the LORD came upon Saul, and he prophesied. (1 Samuel 10:6.) In 1 Samuel 10:24 Samuel presented Saul to the people, and he was accepted as King over them. (1 Samuel 11:15.) In 1 Samuel 12:1 Samuel told the people “Behold, I have hearkened unto your voice…and have made a king over you.” Samuel set Saul as king.”  


Samuel let the people know that it would only be good for them if they followed the LORD in all their ways, otherwise it would work against them. This event took place almost 1,000 years before Jesus’ birth.

STAY VIGILANT

_____________________


This morning (Tuesday) I heard the Lord say, “Stay Vigilant.” In hearing this I was immediately drawn to 1 Peter 5:8-9 which says, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.”


To be vigilant means to keep awake, to watch, to be watchful. I believe that the Lord is saying that we need to be aware that something evil is about to take place, and that we should not be caught off guard.


I am also reminded of the time Jesus asked his disciples to watch and pray when he was in the Garden of Gethsemane. None of them stayed awake. We are at the hour that an all-out battle by our enemy, the devil, the adversary of our soul will intensify. We must stay on high alert 24/7. That is what it means to “stay vigilant.”  


Remember, we are soldiers in the army of God, with Jesus being our Commander in Chief. He will give us our marching orders as we spend time with him. This is not the hour to fear. It is the hour that we have been called to battle. It should not have come as a surprise that we are in that hour.


Walk in faith. Watch and pray. Stay vigilant! The time is at hand!

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION


I heard the voice of the Spirit say, "Stay Vigilant" this morning. Do not think that things are ever going to be what one would call normal again. These days are as 2 Timothy says, "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come." Be prepared, be built up in faith, and stay vigilant by watching and praying!



APOSTLE PAT MURRAY

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION


Now you can look up and cheer up for today is a brand new day; And that means you can stop all your thinking about giving up. Yes, Child of God the tides are now turning; And this time they are in your favor. Just always remember that God did not bring you this far to leave you dangling there in limbo. So you just hold onto His faithful promises and hang in there. However, in the meantime, you need to be aware that you’ll have some turbulence for just a little while longer. However, you can know of assurance; Those rough tides are already calming down…And they are finally turning in your favor. Therefore you may as well go ahead and start getting yourself ready; For child of God the shore is just in sight. Now do I hear some Praise a great big Hallelujah and a grateful Amen coming loudly from somebody out there?

Wednesday Thought For Today



When you look up and see the stars at night does it give you a feeling of awe for a God who created such beauty. Isaiah talks about those very stars:


“Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of His great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.”

Isaiah 40:26 NIV


Just imagine: if God did that for the stars, just think what He would do for you!


So cast off that anxiety and fear because the Lord is calling His people to stand and resist the wiles of satan.

 Our Hummingbirds HCC

 

 

                     The Hummingbirds, a gentle answer

                     To the tenderness of Christ.

                     So soft, so quick, so beautiful,

                     As you watch them throughout your life.

 

                     They fly from place to place.

                     No harm to anyone.

                     They feed upon the flowers.

                     They seem to have so much fun.

 

                      When the weathers warm, they come.

                      They fly out when winter’s here.

                      Come and go, come, and go,

                      Yes, they're happy, they have no fear.

 

                      Our Lord sure loves us so much,

                      He gives us tiny birds.

                      To cheer us up, to light our life.

                      A miracle of God, our Hummingbirds.
