Persistence In Prayer
Do you ever pray for something truly important and grow weary when you don’t see the answer?Many believers will pray diligently but after a couple weeks allow it to fade away.I want to read a story about George Mueller and prayer.Where did he get the idea that he had to be so persistent?In America today we have become an inpatient people."I want what I want and I want it now!" Also, "I am not willing to wait any time for it."Sometimes it just takes timeSmoked meat takes hours to be ready but it is so worth it when you taste itI believe the lack of persistent prayer is the greatest reason for church decline todayWe as a church need to be in persistent prayer for God to use us to reach peopleIf you want to see Orchard or any church grow persistent prayer is the keyWhen I say persistent prayer I mean you gotta PUSHPray
Until
Something
HappensSo when we pray for something we have to prepare to receive itOne of my favorite quotes from “Facing the Giants”If you are praying for rain, prepare your field to receive itGod’s people today, when they do pray, they are not preparing to receive what they pray forThis means that we have to pray and we have to prepareFor every believer, we have to pray persistently, believing God will deliverIf we are praying persistently we have to prepare persistentlyWe need to get out in our community and invite people to meet GodAs we saw in George Mueller’s story, God answers in His time but our job is to keep praying“Do your work heartily, as for the Lord”Christians, we must get to prayer and get to work for GodBeing satisfied with how things are is not doing things for the LordAre you ready to diligently pray and prepare today?If not, then why not? What is preventing you from that?Do you truly know God? - Aug 16, 2023Exodus 29 part2

Rainbow Promises
God’s word begins with Genesis 1:1 God created the heavens and the EarthBy Genesis 8, man was so evil, God destroyed everyone except the family of NoahIn Genesis 9 God makes us a promise that includes a signThe Rainbow!!This weekend in VBS the theme has been Noah and the ArkWhat I want to focus on today in the Promise or the CovenantA covenant made by God to all living thingsA covenant that God wanted to remind us of often so He gave us a beautiful rainbowA rainbow is actually a full circle when seen from above but we only see half from the groundA circle also represents perfection and continuityGod destroyed the earth because of the evil of manThis covenant never says man won’t be punished for their evilHowever it is a promise that God loves us so much he won’t flood the whole world againThe first thing that Noah did when he stepped out of the ark was give an offering to GodGod says “the intent of a man’s heart is evil”The only thing that can change that is GodSome try to explain away the rainbow as simply a scientific explanationGod’s word clearly shows that a rainbow is from GodSome of the most beautiful rainbows seem to occur after the worst stormsGod reminding us that He will never leave us or forsake us even when times are bad.Have you ever seen a double rainbow?Have you ever noticed that the color pattern of the second rainbow is a reverse of the firstHow amazing! I like to think of that as a full picture from top to bottom and bottom to top.No matter what comes your way God is always thereA rainbow also causes me to think of another covenant from GodThe one in which Jesus gave His life to save yoursThis beauty makes a rainbow dim in comparisonHave you ever entered into that covenant with God?
