TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"I pray that your partnership with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding of every good thing we share for the sake of Christ"
Philemon 1:6
TODAY'S WORD:
As believers, we are called to work together to build His kingdom. We are partners together and heirs of His precious promises. In biblical partnership, we operate as one in the eyes of God. That means, when you pray for us and invest time and resources into our ministries at Selah, you will be credited in heaven for every life touched and changed by the work of God's ministry. At the same time, we are standing with you, praying for you, truly their for you and your family just a call, text or email away and we are believing for God's very best in your life.
As partners and heirs of Christ, we are in this together! Nine years ago when we came to serve as pastor and you spiritual leader and counselor one of the youth lifted up a prayer request for "spiritual growth" since that Sunday it has become our mission for all age groups and all people in our church and community members and non-members, for believers and non-believers alike to help as many as we can in as many ways as we can experience spiritual growth.
Selah people' and friends this Christmas 2011, Jennifer and I want to say thank you for standing with us and laboring with us in the kingdom of God. Many lives around our community and beyond have been forever changed because of your partnership with us. Just as you reap benefits in the natural when you labor physically, you will receive supernatural blessings when you invest your time, talent and resources in the kingdom of God. We love you and believe God has much blessing and joy ahead as you continue to grow with Him!
OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father, thank You for the gift of partnership. Thank You that we can stand together stronger and more effective in building Your kingdom and growing your disciples through spiritual growth. Your Word says that when we dwell together in unity, You command blessing. Today I receive that blessing as I follow Your commands in Jesus' name. Amen."
In Christ humbler service...Merry Christmas!
Patrick, Jennifer, Madeline & Luke Muston
