The material, philosophies and experiences
of Earth can never nullify the power of God's Word.
When we embrace this power, it dissolves the
power of the temporal world with its
circumstances, and establishes the REALITY of the
REAL purpose of our REAL God. Jesus, the LIVING
WORD, spoke with people He loved. After talking
from Peter's boat with a multitude who sat on
Gennesaret's shores, He said to Peter, “launch out into the deep and let down
your nets”. Peter, weary from the previous night's failed catch, said, “Master
we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at THY WORD I will let
down the net”. Within moments the net broke due to the size of the catch and
Peter had to call Andrew to help with the haul.
Let the shadow of the fantasy world vanish as God's people take
courage and find grace to turn from the darkness of deception rooted in
philosophy and the empty deceit cradled in the traditions of men and the norms
of the world. Let every Child of God, by faith, surrender to the Word of His Power
and enjoy a real relationship with Jesus Who has prepared a Real Heaven for all
who love Him.
PRAYER FOCUS
We, at Sarnia Assembly, have started something that is really working
at our Prayer Meetings. At the beginning of the meeting we make a list of
requests. Then we break into small groups and, remaining in the hall, each
group prays together.
The result? There is a real buzz, so most people don't mind praying a
short prayer. Many people are praying for various requests at the same time
and just about everyone prays. It really works and is such a blessing.
My point is simply to encourage you to pray! As you read through this
Magazine, let something touch your heart, and then take it to the Lord.
Let's keep in touch with God and let Him make us living epistles, read
and known of all men.
August: Please dedicate this month to pray earnestly for the folk who read
the Nutshells to respond to the Gospel and receive Jesus.
September: Pray that the Brethren going on Mission will be hugely blessed
and come back with wonderful reports for our Mag.
We would love you to Join our Prayer Group in praying for our Magazine
