Pray for One Another | Feb 25th

"I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf."

Romans 15:30

Paul the Apostle was calling for help. If the great Apostle sensed his need for the prayers of others we should not hesitate in making our needs known. Do not be ashamed in seeking prayer for yourself.

Ultimately our trust is in the Lord but it is good to have our hands lifted with others before God. Knowing that our brothers and sisters in Christ are trusting in the Lord with us.

We must carry one another in prayer. We weep with those who mourn and rejoice with others when the answer comes. We must encourage one another through the Word of God while interceding for one another. Let us begin striving in prayer for each other today.

In Christ Alone,

Have a Good Day | Feb. 24th

" God saw that it was good."

Genesis 1:10

In the creation account, we see all that God did was good. Creation was a unique moment unto itself, but the goodness of God is not isolated to that specific act of creation.

The Lord would have you believe and trust that His goodness is still at work in your life. You should not enter your day expecting the worst. It is more than having a positive outlook on life.

It is the Holy Spirit that enables us to see the beauty of the Lord. Let us know that God is for us and not against us. He has promised to work all things out for the good of our salvation, and He will supply our needs.

God's goodness and acts of kindness did not end in creation. He remains good, and the Lord will be kind to you, for you belong to Him in Christ. Expect to see the goodness of the Lord on your behalf.

In Christ Alone,

Waiting Patiently | Feb. 21st

"Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the later rains. You must also be patient."

James 5:7 - 8

There is a blanket of crystalized snow covering the ground. One can only hope for the coming of the growing season when the ground is softened, with the warmth of the sun and the early rains. The aroma and test of harvested fruits seem like a dream, but we shall partake.

Every generation of God's people waits for the coming of the Lord and His justice. We groan with creation, awaiting the redemption of all things. Scriptures exhort us to remain faithful and patient. We patiently wait to see the fruit of our labors, knowing nothing is in vain.

May we hear, " Well done, My good and faithful servant." When that day comes, we will enter into our rest and see the fruit of the harvest. Be patient, beloved, and remain steadfast.

In Christ Alone,

Pastor Wight
