Update on the move
Well, this is the week! Six days and counting…. We trust you are ready to receive unexpected sources of supply, ready to meet those who need the “good news” of the gospel, and ready to “make a difference” in your “Jerusalem”!
“SO WHAT WEEK IS IT”, you might ask? It is the week before we take possession of the land God has given us and I thought it might be fun to chronicle this week with little notes of specific things to pray about instead of one big prayer directive! So—here goes:
Last night was a big test for us. The tent is beginning to go up and a fall storm blew in with a vengeance! Ps Joe was up at 3:30 this morning, checking things out and praying in tongues!
Because of our rocky soil here in central Texas, it is quite a job to anchor the stakes but all in all, the tent weathered well. A few minor adjustments need to be made but God was good and so today, despite the rain, we will continue to forge ahead.
Yesterday, many stayed after church to dismantle lights, sound, chairs, etc so things are ready to be moved out to the property just as soon as possible.
I’m reminded of a scripture passage found in Luke 7:
24″Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock”.
Would you agree in prayer with us today that the weather would clear and we can progress with putting the tent up as scheduled? We believe we are building on a sure foundation, both spiritually and physically and your prayer of agreement will be a great blessing today.
In closing, let me ask you—what foundation are you building on? Your hopes, your dreams, your plans need the sure foundation that only Jesus can provide. We are praying for you today that as the winds of adversity blow, “your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock”!
More updates and pictures to follow this week…stay tuned!
Ps Joe and Becky and the team
