Let Hope Arise! T.R.U.S.T.

Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me?

Put your HOPE in God, for I will yet praise him! 

Hope's Anthem

He's awakening the hope in me
By calling forth my destiny
He's breathing life into my soul
I will thirst for Him, and him alone

He has come like the rain
That showers on the barren plain
So my heart and tongue confess
Jesus Christ, the hope of man

My hope is in you, God
I am steadfast, I will not be moved
I'm anchored, never shaken
All my hope is in you

He's bringing hope to the hopeless
And giving his heart to the broken
And sharing his home with the orphan
He is the joy, He is my joy
He is the hope of the nations
The Father's heart we're embracing
He is the song we're declaring
He is the joy, He is my joy

You're bringing hope to the hopeless
And giving your heart to the broken
And sharing your home with the orphan
You are the joy, You are my joy
You are the hope of the nations
The Father's heart we're embracing
You are the song we're declaring
You are the joy, You are my joy
Why so downcast oh, oh my soul
Put your hope in God alone

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalms 34:18

Let us be encouraged and encourage one another with this thought. God IS Able!

Wishing you peace family as prepare to enter into Sabbath rest.

Bonus Tips for Making the Most of your Personal Bible Study

Whether you are focusing on the Isaiah 58 5-Day Challenge or any other passage, here's some Bonus tips courtesy of the American Bible Society. Enjoy!

Getting the Most from God's Word

As you embark on taking a journey, we encourage you to engage with God’s Word following these four steps so that your life may be touched and changed in the most meaningful way.

Pray with focus and openness to see what God has for you. God, connect with me here, as I seek You in your Word.

Read the selected section of Scripture slowly. Take note of intriguing words and phrases. Read them a second time.

Reflect on what strikes you as you read. What does this passage of Scripture teach you about God’s values?

Respond to the passage. Speak to God directly about what’s on your mind and heart. Look for ways to live out what you’ve uncovered.

PRE-OUTPOUR 5 Day Faith-Lift Challenge!

As we approach our 1 year KLF anniversary this week, we have appropriately spent the entire month we looking at the theme of Faith:  Faith that works, Faith that grows and Faith that shares.  Faith has been and will continue to be central to our Kingdom Life Fellowship experience.

 

Our latest discovery is that sharing our faith is more about a lifestyle than an activity or event.  Everyday our lifestyle, attitudes, outlook and behaviours provide a testimony of the strength or weakness of our belief in God.  The story of the little servant girl found in 2 Kings 5:1-4 reminds us that it is not the magnitude of our roles but the faithfulness of our service  (i.e. lifestyle) that provides the best platform for intentionally sharing our faithwhen specific opportunities to do so arise.

 

So are you ready to take the 5 Day Faith-Lift Challenge?

 

Every day (preferably morning) for the next 5 days prayerfully approach the following:

 

1) Read Isaiah 58 slowly to discover the characteristics and benefits of a faith-filled lifestlye.

2) Reflect on the specific aspects of your service or lifestyle that might need to move into closer alignment with your professed faith.

3) Prayfully confess your mis-steps.

4) Invite the Holy Spirit to provide you with an opportunity to activate, grow and intentionally share your faith that day.

 

Optional - you may want to journal your experience so that you have evidence of the "before" and "after" of your experience.

 

 

I  am positive that if you choose to take up this 5-Day challenge,  by the end of the week you will have experienced a significant faith-lift in your personal walk with God.

 

Bottom-Line: 

...without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.  Hebrews 11:6

 

I invite you to join me in taking up this challenge and praying for an Spirit-drenched OUTPOUR experience this Friday. 

 

Let's make Kingdom Living a reality in our lives right now!

Peace & Love,

Be Encouraged, God is in control...

Be Encouraged,

God is in control even as we all go through our season - whatever our season is.  May we continue to encourage each other and may we continue to lift up each other in prayer.  May we be reminded that the battles that we are facing now and the battles that are to come are not ours but they are for the Lord.

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."  ISIAH 41:10
