    Perfect The Good Work During Lent Series

     | 3,186 views

    But the keys are fasting and prayer. A desperate situation demands desperate measures of intensity, earnestness, and authority for prayer with fasting. Fasting breaks the bondage of sin and loosens the hold of bad habits and their rulership over your life.

    Theme: Perfect the Good Work Text: Philippians 1:1-11 Introduction to Lent: The word 'lent' refers to Springtime or spring. Christians observe 40 days as Lent from Ash Wednesday to Easter, excluding the Sundays. Lent means give up and have self-denial for all that you love to do in your ...read more

    In a world that bombards us with bad news, there is hope and good news only through Jesus Christ. The good news of the gospel can transform all of our situations if only we give heed and believe.

    Here’s what is recorded in Luke 2:10, but the angel said to them, "Don't be afraid! I am here with good news for you, which will bring great joy to all the people. (GNB) From the above mentioned verse, the word that I would like to highlight for our meditation is the word ‘good news’. ...read more

    The more unlikely the situation (if we pray), the better God likes it. God likes to show His hand, but He won’t do it unless we step out and depend on Him to come through in order for us have success. God likes the “come-from-behind” position.

    GOD DELIGHTS IN BAD ODDS 1 Sam. 14:6-15,23 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: BOUDREAUX DUMPING TRASH 1. Boudreaux pulled over on the side of the highway and was dumping his trash beside the road.

    In II Chronicles 20, we read about King Jehoshaphat of Judah. The Moabites, long-time enemies of Judah, had formed a powerful alliance with the Ammonites and other surrounding nations and marched against Jehoshaphat.

    The enemy forces were encamped at Ein Gedi. The king and his people were filled with alarm, so Jehoshaphat called a fast and began to seek the Lord as did all the people. In his prayer, Jehoshaphat talked about evil coming upon the nation, in the form of the sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine. ...read more

    In a previous message we looked at GOD’S PURPOSE IN THE BAD that comes our way. When the bad comes our way, we need to remember Romans 8:28. “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose
