IS MAN RIGHT?

Reading the news of each day, I am continually amazed at the destruction, of people’s lives. It isn’t a new thing happening in our country or around the world. The Scriptures give plenty of good advise for us humans, however, we are free to exercise our own will.

For many who are thrust into public positions, which have a high profile, their lives are all too evident of wrong decision-making. It could be in the areas of leadership, finances, relationships, emotional outbursts, substance use or any other aspect of the life they live.

O man, how reliable are your thoughts?


Proverbs 16:25 (Tanakh Translation)
A road may seem right to a man, but in the end it is a road to death.

REVIVAL

For many years now hundreds of prayerful Christians have been using the intercessions of the “Jerusalem Chamber Fellowship of Prayer,” among which are the following:
That the Church may see the whole world’s need of Christ, and may be ready for any sacrifice in order to make Him known to all mankind;
That the Church may be willing at whatever cost to follow and bear witness to the way of Christ as she learns it;
That the Church may learn to preach the eternal gospel by word of life in terms that the men and women of this age may understand;
That a great number of men and women may offer themselves unreservedly to do Christ’s work at home and abroad in our generation;
For the removal of all hindrances in our lives to the manifestation of God’s redeeming love and power.

I believe that the Oxford Group Movement is God’s outstanding answer to these petitions, and all that longing for revival and renaissance which lay behind them. I believe this with increasing conviction the more I see of the movement.

THE CHURCH IN ACTION ~ Jack C. Winslow
Hodder & Stoughton (1st Printed, 1936)
Introduction ~ Page 12, 13.


Some within the body of Christ have maintained a fervent desire to have meaningful connections with their communities in ways that will not only bring men and women to a relationship with Christ, but also that the communities themselves will be transformed under the rule and authority of Christ.

Lord, fulfil the prayer points in this age. Amen.


Luke 13:28-30 (Message)
"That's when you'll find yourselves out in the cold, strangers to grace. You'll watch Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets march into God's kingdom. You'll watch outsiders stream in from east, west, north, and south and sit down at the table of God's kingdom. And all the time you'll be outside looking in—and wondering what happened. This is the Great Reversal: the last in line put at the head of the line, and the so-called first ending up last.
