IT DISAPPEARED SO QUICKLY - Prayer Update: November 9, to December 31, 2020

 


EXHORTATION ๐Ÿ’•

๐Ÿ’  SEX

Satan is bombarding our children with a lot of confusing and incorrect information about sex, which is doing significant damage to our offspring, their future families, society and the world.

It is therefore critical that we:

  • Make ourselves available
  • Make ourselves askable
  • Make ourselves knowledgeable
  • Be deliberate in educating our children

Concerning this and all other issues that affect them.  

I am generally expected to tell youth THAT SEX IS NOT GOOD!  But I canโ€™t do that!  Because if you are ever going to be married you should not KILL your desire for SEX! 

SEX IS GREAT! 

Donโ€™t blame me for saying that. 

It was Godโ€™s idea in the first place and He intentionally made it that wayโ€ฆ 

The BIBLE is probably the greatest sex manual โ€ฆ it reveals the good/bad/uglyโ€ฆ 

Proverbs 5:18-19

Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth, a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love.

Sex is a good thing and it is designed by God for procreation and pleasure.

SEXUAL IMMORALITY However:

  • Is Evil
  • Hurts
  • Is of the Devil
  • Is highly selfish/unloving
  • Is Dirty
  • Is Vile
  • Can be Fatal (In more ways than one)
  • Is Inappropriate
  • Is Destructive
  • Kills marriage, family, churches and community!


'Under the intoxication of sexual immorality people often do things that they would never otherwise do.'

Let us receive and give accurate information about sex. Let us keep away from immorality.

THANKSGIVING ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ RAE-ANN

We thank God for the partial scholarship that Rae-Ann got for this upcoming semester.  It will come in handy to purchase her books.   Rae ended the last semester maintaining a 4.0 GPA.

Glory to God!  Please remember her in your prayer. 

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ CAR - IT DISAPPEARED SO QUICKLY

The comptroller of Accounts finally released the funds to compensate in some way for the destruction of our vehicle.  We also praise God for a contribution that we received from brethren from Canada specifically toward the purchase of a ministry-appropriate vehicle.

We actually saw a vehicle that we felt was appropriate.   The price was strangely low and within the range of our current funds.  It was too good to be true.  That vehicle disappeared before we could have funds in our account and there is nothing like that on the market anymore.  I chalked that up to, 'God spared us from what was "too good to be true"'... 

We are just more than halfway there in our quest to purchase a vehicle at the regular pre-owned market price.  GLORY TO GOD!

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ SINGLES CAMP

Christian Assemblies singles Camp was held during the weekend, Friday, November 27 to Sunday, November 29, via zoom. 

The camp was a success and participants made commitments to change their lives.

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ NORTH UNITED SISTERS' VIRTUAL MISSIONS DINNER & PLEDGE-A-TON

This innovative fund raiser dinner was well attended.  The opportunity was sought to bring awareness to the work being done among the missionaries who are supported by this group. 

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ JERNINGHAM JUNCTION GOSPEL HALL MARRIAGE FORUM

Our ministry was honoured to join the above mentioned church as we hosted a marriage forum for married and single people.

During the seminar, the need for these practical forums became critically obvious.

๐Ÿ™๐ŸพREUBEN

Please remember Reuben in prayer with regard to a Job and Spiritual development. 

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ COMPUTER ISSUES
 
The computer is still limping along.  Glory to God. 

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ PRISON MINISTRY
 
We are still waiting on the opportunity to get back into the prison at ECRC.   (I guess many are even more eager to get out.) 

Please remember this in prayer.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ PRAYER AND COUNSELLING

We are still engaged in counselling both face to face and electronically with regard to domestic and other issues.

We have also been engaged during the wee hours of the morning to intercede on some really extreme spiritual matters  locally and overseas.

Please support us in prayer in these areas. 

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ ISAIAH CAMPBELL 

We covet your prayers with regard to medical matters for this young boy.
