SCHOOL UPDATE

**********************************************
Purpose for Life – Purpose of Prayer: If we don’t have a purpose in our religious life, we are wasting our life. The Holy Spirit is in the business of Doing the Impossible What would our ministry look like if we were all prayer warriors? “Ministry begins on our knees before it begins on our feet.” The Privilege of Prayer Through nature and revelation, through His providence, and by the influence of His Spirit, God speaks to us. But these are not enough; we need also to pour out our hearts to Him. In order to have spiritual life and energy we must have actual intercourse with our heavenly Father. Our minds may be drawn out toward Him; we may meditate upon His works, His mercies, His blessings; but this is not in the fullest sense, communing with Him. In order to commune with God, we must have something to say to Him concerning our actual life. Steps to Christ pg. 93
Sabbath rest is complete today at 5:04 pm

“In the Spirit and Power” by Pastor Pavel Goia with Kelly Mowrer. Summary of Chapter 4
Prayer is a dialogue, not a monologue.
Pray, study, think it over, pray again. Make it a conversation. Listen for God. Make yourself available to Him. He knows when He has a job for you and He will find a way to let you know if you listen and if you are open to His plan. Answer to prayer is a process. God sometimes takes a while to work with us and prepare us for what He is going to do. When God talks, He doesn’t talk small-because God is not small. God talks big. He talks so big that we cannot wrap our minds around what He says. But when we start praying, God starts working. Even though we cannot understand His plans, He needs us to know Him so well that we are not trying to understand in order to obey. Rather, we trust Him so much that we will obey anything He asks us to do.”
