Scripture: "They went forth and preached every where, the Lord...confirming the word with signs following". Mark 16:20
On this journey God has indeed been showing himself strong. I trust Him and have been leaning not unto my own understanding, but have taken the steps God has told me to take, not having a clue, where we were going to end up. Pastor Dan and Pat have said to me, "Berta it's whatever God tells you, we are going to support you; we trust what God is doing in you. Those were empowering words, more than four years ago, but humbling also. It was imperative that I hear from God...
Steps of faith are life changing, I knew God wanted to do a new thing in me, but I had to desire a new thing, in order for God to do it. The prayer breakfast has been that for me, the new thing. This prayer breakfast is designed by God to connect the body of Christ in this region. When we had the last prayer breakfast meeting, I was discouraged because only a handful of people showed up. Some of those in attendance, quenched the fire within me, but God said, "not so"! I prayed after the meeting, went home that night sent out a followup email to the team. I gave them what God gave me, because I had an expectation, and they were unaware, but God was. My goal for the breakfast was for every team member to sell four tickets, this would more than take us to our goal of 50. There were comments during the meeting, "What if we don't know four people in this region?". I didn't answer that question during the meeting, but I did with the preceding email. If you don't have four people that you can invite to the prayer breakfast, then pray that God will lay it on the heart of another team member to invite more than four. God has done just that, he laid it upon the heart of DeMario Levi, husband of a prayer member, to invite people to the prayer breakfast, he stepped out in faith, made extra tickets, when he got the order for tickets printed for his wife. Wwy?, because God laid it upon his heart to do so. Our initial ticket number has been exceeded we are now walking in over flow. This is God's idea, we are trusting Him with this breakfast He is going to do remarkable things. Remember as a prayer team we have been praying for miracles, signs, and wonders; we must pull on the anointing of God to do show Himself strong at this breakfast.
God is increasing my faith as I see prayers answered. On yesterday I was called over to share with someone about the marriage conference I attend annually with extended family membrs. This person sowed a seed of faith into her marriage, came and sought me out. I was taken back, but after today's reading I shall pray for miracles, signs, and wonder's that her faith will increase as she sees God move.
"If you want to see God move, make a move."
