What is your PURPOSE?
Psalm 23:1
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
KJV
​
Matthew 22 : 37-40
Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
NIV
​
God of power,
May the boldness of your Spirit transform us,
may the gentleness of your Spirit lead us,
may the gifts of your Spirit be our goal and our strength,
now and always.
​
Thank You Lord Jesus for sending
our Helper and Our Comforter.
​
Come, O Holy Spirit.
Come as Holy Fire and burn in us,
come as Holy Wind and cleanse us within,
come as Holy Light and lead us in the darkness,
come as Holy Truth and dispel our ignorance,
come as Holy Power and enable our weakness,
come as Holy Life and dwell in us.
Convict us, convert us, consecrate us,
until we are set free from the service of ourselves,
to be your servants to the world.
May you have all the praise, all the honor,
and all the glory.
in Jesus Holy Name that is above all names.
Amen.
“You need eyes to see and ears to hear, Jesus said…It takes the mystery of faith, always to believe….because rumors of another world are just that, rumors, and not proofs, a thin membrane of belief separates the natural from the supernatural…and we must learn to pay attention to notice the difference.
