PFTN.OCTOBER.08

Fellowship Family:
We read in the scripture, “ I love those that love me and those that seek me early shall find me.” The Lord is speaking of a priority, to seek or diligently place prayer as a priority! He told Isaiah, “ Behold, the former things have come to pass, now I declare new things, before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.” Have you noticed that contrary to conventional wisdom, God doesn’t call the qualified, he qualifies the called! HE is the Lord of the Harvest. He has called us to take risks and trust him. God’s will is dynamic, it is not a once and for all call, and that’s it. One minister asked, “ Why would 95 percent of the preachers stay in America among the 5 percent of the world’s population, when only 5 percent would respond to God’s call to reach the ends of the earth?”
                          

If this statistic is to be true, may the Lord have mercy on the few that are attempting to reach the world. Praise Chapel I am convinced that we are unlike many other fellowship groups. A wise woman once told me, “ If you are not called to the missions, then give! But if you are called to the missions, still give!”


We have an opportunity to gather and give of ourselves to prayer. On Friday October 3rd and Saturday October 4th, we will be gathering in Praise Chapel San Jose. It will be for one purpose and one purpose only, to pray for the nations! Missions historians have pointed out that more has been accomplished in the last two hundred years in global evangelization since William Carey went to India than in all two thousand years of Christian history. Barriers are crumbling, doors are opening, and the global harvest is accelerating at a time God is calling our Fellowship to join that harvest. I now live in a country where just a few years ago was not permitted. There is a command to be obeyed, a commitment to be made, a cost to be paid, and a compromise to evade!
