May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of Unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that  with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.  Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God ( Rom. 15:5-7 ) .

If we look at the history of Israel, we discover that when the king had an intimate relationship with Gog--the nation prospered ; but when a king neglected his relationship with God--the nation suffered. The same can be said today of our relationships. Keep your and your church's primary focus on knowing and becoming like Jesus and all other relationships--marriage, family, friendships , church,, work, acquaintances, community, and society--are encourage to become more Christlike. May the Lord our God always have a light in his heart for you all.

God uses the family unit as a cocoon for spiritual transformation. Cultivating such an environment not only gives children early glimpses of God's amazing love and strength, but it also provides fresh opportunities for you and others in your church to learn God's ways even as you seek to guide children ( see Deut. 6:6-7 ). We are commanded to teach our children about God's commandment.

God gives the church great flexibility in the way it does  things --but not in what it does . The words of Jesus in Matthew 28 make the mission of the church clear : The responsibility for disciplining rests with the church and all believers . In other words , your church is given the instruction to take the spiritual initiative for cultivating an environment of love , trust , and obedience to God ,all for His glory . It is not an environment that pushes cataclysm--sudden or drastic change in lives--but instead one that nurtures the transformation of believers from man's nature into God's nature . 

The purpose of His Glory is not just for us to bask all day in His Presence, although it is available to us on  His  Holy Mountain, but for the work of the  Kingdom of God. There is an enemy that is loose like a roaring lion, that is destroying God's people. God is omnipresent. David says it best in Psalms 139:7,  "Whither shell I go from thy Spirit ? Or whether shell I flee from thy presence ? If I ascend to Heaven, thou are there ! if I make my bed in Sheol, thou art there !"

What is the purpose of man, according to the Bible?

The Bible makes it abundantly clear that God created man and that He created him for His glory (see Isaiah 43:7).  Therefore, the ultimate purpose of man, according to the Bible, is simply to glorify God.

From the book, "First Things First", Russel Board writes on the subject of Prayer.

Today, we continue, with Dr. August S. Francis, to cover the subject of Prayer and the Types of Prayer that are covered, overall, in the Word of God.  Prayer is conversation with the Lord and we must take it very seriously.  How can we do the work of the Lord without speaking to the one we work for.  Let's take a look at His Word!

The Magi Visits the Messiah

2 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi^[a] from the east came to Jerusalem ² and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”

³ When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. ⁴ When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. ⁵ “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:

⁷ Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. ⁸ He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.”

⁹ After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. ¹⁰ When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. ¹¹ On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. ¹² And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.

 One of  the most convincing evidences that there is a God is the change that takes place in a person's life as he or she becomes intimately acquainted with Him . Those who had the nature of a lion become like a lamb . Where there was hate , there is now love . Where there was fighting, there is now peace , Where there was turmoil within , there is now a quiet rest . Where there were endless questions, there is now confidence. He changes the selfish  person into one who cares about others.

Ask The Lord If HE will allow you to be a part of the Prayer Army. Check out our Prayer Page on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/PrayForBeaumont/
