UNLEASHED DEVOTION TO PRAYER/COMMUNITY

All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord’s Supper), and to prayer.
⁴³ A deep sense of awe came over them all, and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders......⁴⁷ all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their fellowship those who were being saved.  ACTS 2:42-43,47


So this week we have seen how when GOD infiltrates a wretch's heart that there is a new hunger for the WORD (teachings of the Apostles), and desire for fellowship on a regular basis, which people GOT to EAT as Rally's says so they begin to have meals together (including the Lord's supper) and at the end we have to stay in communication as a community with OUR GOD so there is a call to, a desire to, a need to pray.   

It's in prayer that we hear from God.  That prayers are answered and in a faith-filled community we get to see one another's prayers answered.  Beit the giving of a JOB, or a SPOUSE, or that someone we've banded together in prayer about and we see them come to Christ.   It's in prayer that we unload our burdens on the altar of God, so that we take up His Yoke, because it's easy and His burdens are light!  

I've been in assemblies where I've seen the power of GOD heal a young boy.   It's been when I gathered with my small group that a husband that was far from CHURCH, is now becoming the church.   The scripture says when we totally devote ourselves to the LORD, we find ourselves also devoted to His WORD, FELLOWSHIP, SHARING MEALS/LIFE, and Praying that invite Him in and we see transformation all around us.  Which simply leaves us in AWE, and wanting more of that.  It's where we have seen this before at Calvary Church, where we gather a few times a year (I wish it was more) as ONE BODY to give thanks to GOD and BOLDLY GO TO HIM IN PRAISE & PRAYER under one roof!   AMAZING THINGS HAPPEN.....AWE COMES OVER US, and in line with the WORD....the LORD adds to our numbers!!!  

Won't you join us this SUNDAY at 6pm at Calvary Church MidRivers for our BOLD PRAYER EVENT?!?!?!?   Let's PRAISE GOD for WHO HE IS, and petition HIM TOGETHER,  LET's HUMBLE OURSELVES & PRAY, TURN FROM OUR SIN/WICKED WAYS (things that we do or say that hurt the FATHER and His KINGDOMS ADVANCEMENT)  (REPENT) that HEAVEN MIGHT HEAR, FORGIVE OUR SINS, & HEAL OUR LAND!  SEE YOU SUNDAY MORNING FOR WORSHIP...and SUNDAY EVENING!  LGLP enough to INVITE THEM OUT!!!
