"GLORY! SHE IS IN THE CLEAR" ... Prayer Update 06th - 19th July 2020

EXHORTATION 💕

💝  BLURRED VISION

We see the reality of challenges and dangers all around.  However, once we focus on God we would see the TRUTH of the promised New Jerusalem very clearly.   In spite of disease, injustice, inequity, seductive pleasures, filthy lucre i.e. the things in this land that easily eat us up, [through God] we have already overcome the world. 

Many among us are stumbling, falling and being defeated because:

1. Some are FAR sighted

2. Some are NEAR sighted and 

3. Some are REAR sighted...  

But when we truly put our trust in God He will correct our vision so that:

4. We can be 'Ex-Sighted'

Do not let FEAR take your focus off of God… Trust HIM! Let us take the land! 

Numbers 13

30 Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.”

31 But the men who had gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we.” 

“As long as we keep seeing the fight through the enemy's eyes, our vision will be blurred and we will keep being defeated.”

"SHE IS NOW WITH THE LORD" ... Prayer Update 22nd June 2020 - 05th July 2020

EXHORTATION 💕

💝  RAISE THEM ON GOD'S WORD

Our best defense against Satan's plans to kill, steal and destroy the world, is to raise our children on God's word. 

Teach them; practice at home; apply it outside the home; do devotions at nights and on mornings; put the word in their heads and heart and post it in your homes.

Based on Deuteronomy 6:4-9

1. There is ONE GOD
2. Love Him completely
3. Ensure that the word is in your heart
4. Instill the word in your children

Ensure that your family is an asset in the land.

Deuteronomy 6:8-9

8 You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 

9 You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.

“GREATEST ASSET for National Security is our families through HOW WE RAISE OUR CHILDREN.”

THANKSGIVING 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

🙌🏾 RAE-ANN

We thank God and those who were moved to support us with the acquisition the full school fees for the Fall semester.  

We had a setback as we tried to make the payment online today.  This I think was God's divine intervention telling us to wait. 

Soon after the issue, we got the information that 'if the college is going to offer ONLY online courses she would have to either transfer to a college that offers in-class courses or return home'.

Tomorrow God willing, we would find out if Bergen Community College's courses will be 'in-class' for the upcoming semester. 

God is well able, please remember this in prayer. 

MINISTRY⛪ ⛪ ⛪

OBITUARY 😢

⛪ SHE WAS CALLED HOME TO GLORY

The mother of Sis. Jasmin Simmons went to be with the Lord yesterday 05th July 2020 at the Fair Haven Eventide Home in Belmont.  She certainly had long life, having passed at the age of 91.

Sis SHEILA SIMMONS was not only mother to her three children and grand children but she mothered many in the community.  This trait has certainly been passed on to Jasmin as she currently deposits motherly care to many children in her community and beyond.

We thank God for Sis SHEILA and her diligent service to the Lord which extended to the neighbourhood and her sphere of influence.  Absence from the body is presence with the Lord.  The funeral service is expected to be either on Friday 10th or Saturdaty 11th, at Victory Christian Outreach Church Erthig Road, Belmont.
