We need each Other?

As Believers!

Meeting together is hard for many of us in closed countries, some religious others unbelieving by state control? But for others it is illness, forgotten in the numbers, rejection, being outcast for mistakes, mental-illness and other?

God only wants things for a time to teach people to try harder and not fall backwards, but get up say sorry to Him first and get moving again!

We should know that it is hard to be a ‘Christian, but its worth it, since we are a saved people with a eternal hope and purpose and we have been empowered by the Spirit of God to reach out to others and to see souls saved!

We are also a people of prayer, of communicating with our creator and knowing that He hears and answers our prayers, heals people, influences governments and leaders even without them being aware of their right actions with integrity and that our Lord is coming back for us at the end of the ages!

John 16:7-9, Ephesians 5:21, Jude 1:15, Revelation 6:9-10.

Effective Ministry?

Many groups and Meetings!

Some fellowships do very little and rely on the community, others act in a silly way bringing golf and the funfair to their buildings in the hope of raising the attendance numbers? While others are full of activity, from house groups to meetings and yet there is no essential results of attendance or growth?

Good leadership is needed from the Pastor to the elders or deacons or what ever way you make that call! Organisation and review is as important, while the prayer meeting is one of the focuses of the believers to pray weekly on the events, the direction of the Ekklesia, the sick, troubles and the surrounding community!

Preaching the Gospel with emphasis on the Cross, the need for personal salvation and that believers share their faith at work, home, school and other without the fear of humans is the key to success!

Leviticus 19:15, Psalm 91:5, Isaiah 8:12, Acts 8:25, 1 John 4:18, 5:9-11, Revelation 22:20.

Amazing Scriptures!

A process of God at work in the Believer?

Romans 8:28 is one of those scriptures like John 3:16 is often quoted but little understood since mush of it is passed by in the saying?

God gives us a promise that those who mean bad for us, this could also mean other believers might actually turn out better for us and be more of a loss to them!

A good way of explaining this process, is say you wanted to leave where you where living but for another reason you could not do it yourself and your neighbours told lies to get you out thinking they were getting rid of a problem to their space? While you got moved on to something better that suited you much more than what you had been in and also the new resident that replaced you might turn out far worse for those who opposed you?

God does actually care about us and will not leave us in a place or situation that does not benefit Him!

Genesis 50:20, Acts 4:28, Romans 8:28.
