The hour of God's power manifests at the end of man's resources. God is pleased to wait until all striving and human effort cease and your situation calls for nothing less than a miracle. God knows the day and the exact hour that He will intervene. In the midst of these dark seasons while we are waiting for Him to act trust that the Holy Spirit is standing by ready to take action. God is calling His people to abandon themselves to prayer and praise, believing that He is still on the Throne and He is in control! In the day of darkness Jesus Christ is still the light of the world!

God the Father wants to heal us from our fears, worries, and anxieties. There are 365 fear not's in scripture. In Isaiah 41:10 God tells us not to be anxious or fearful because He is with us; He is our God; He will strengthen us; He will help us; and He will uphold us — the five pillars of fearlessness. In Philippians 4, God provides an antidote to fear. We must seek and rejoice in Him. We are to stand strong in a new revelation of Him. We are to surrender and release our heart and life to Him.

There is a lie that the enemy tries to tell every believer who is praying for their family's salvation. The lie is simply there is no deliverance and the situation is hopeless therefore you might as well stop praying. The enemy will snare you into believing that he has the ability to block the Glory of God in a particular situation. But Exodus chapter 14 reminds us that the promises of God will continue to be fulfilled no matter what is happening in our lives and the lives of our family. When the storm is raging all night long don't look to the circumstance, look to God!

Throughout the New Testament Jesus healed multitudes of sick people. He had both the power and compassion to heal — it was one of His key reasons for being here. He also commissioned his disciples to heal the sick. It isn’t enough for us today to know that Jesus and the apostles healed, but as followers of Christ we must make His mission our mission — visiting the sick, looking after them, and praying for them.

There is a spiritual wall that separates those who are truly serving God and those who are bringing carnality into His church. If God is going to be honored in this generation we must begin to rebuild the testimony of Christ in our lives. You may ask yourself how does this happen? How do I begin to rebuild this wall?

Bethlehem is the place where God was given for the needs of humanity. As Christians there is an inner desire that God plants in our heart to go into His field and gather up those whom are considered outcasts and unwanted. God wants to revive the present day church to find strength and power one more time in His redemptive love. We are called to go into the world and pick up what nobody wants and tell the world there is bread enough for all and this bread is Jesus Christ Himself. May we all be awakened to the absolute value of one soul!

[Song of Solomon 5:1–9, 8:5] Anyone above the age of three has experienced a broken relationship. Even as mature adults we are not immune to them. When we are hurt by others we push them away, and in return they push us away. What began as a minor conflict quickly becomes a broken relationship — neither person willing to soften their heart and humble them self. When we are hurt we rightly turn to the church for healing, but often find ourselves beaten and bruised. We turn to our friends, but they are consumed by their own problems.

Jesus faced the mountain of entrenched rebellion towards the ways of God. It is a systematic religiousness that made His ways unrecognizable to mankind. The wrath of God is truly revealed when He sees man create a system of religion that robs the sinner of the treasure of His heart. The whole desire of God is that His house would be called a house of prayer, and the doors would be open so the outcasts of humanity could come in and find satisfaction to the deepest desires of their heart.

In some degree or another we have all experienced loss and grief. There are times in our pain that we cry out and God answers us (2 Chronicles 18:31). There are other times when we get hit by random arrows (2 Chronicles 18:33) — divorce, loss of a loved one, backslidden children, etc. — that cause us to question God. How could this happen? Where were you God?

Today is a day of mercy and grace. God is gently calling out to those who are backslidden, those who have grown cold and those who need to make things right with God. The first call of Jesus is of love and forgiveness. The second call is, "You make a move"! The Bible says, "today if you hear His voice harden not your heart." Jesus is coming soon, so get up and shake yourself form the dirt and when you rise up the shackles of captivity and sin will fall off!
