A Joyful Report Scott Pauley

The last few weeks have been some of the busiest and most blessed we have seen in our evangelistic work. I know this is due to the Lord’s grace and the faithful prayers of so many people. With the intense schedule I have not posted as many articles as normal. We hope to return to that shortly! But I wanted to pass along a few answers to prayer and encourage you with what God is doing…

  • The Lord has given a spirit of revival in a number of local churches in different parts of the country. I am often asked what we see frequently in churches. Right now there is a spiritual hunger among many of the Lord’s people. God always has a remnant! Now is the time for us to intensify our prayers for a real revival.
  • The God Bless America Rally was particularly touched of God. There was a real unity among God’s people from 16+ churches, a spirit of prayer. I am convinced this is the reason we experienced such a move of the Holy Spirit. More than 200 precious souls professed faith in Christ over the course of the campaign. A great majority of those were personally led to Christ by believers who got stirred to share the gospel with others. We are still hearing about people being saved. Each of the new believers is being followed up by one of the supporting churches. Our goal is not decisions – it is disciples. Pray with us that there will be “fruit that remains.”
  • The 2nd annual WVGrads Baccalaureate Service in Beckley, WV was conducted last night. There were high school seniors and their families from 9 area high schools present. Governor Jim Justice gave an encouraging word to the 2019 graduates and I had the privilege to give a gospel message. We saw 32 precious souls profess faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior! 15 local churches supported the meeting, along with a number of area businesses. Our own home church family worked tirelessly as a team to make it a great night. How wonderful to see churches reaching their communities for Christ!

The Lord Jesus told us that “joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth” (Luke 15:7). If there is joy in heaven, there ought to be joy on earth! Our Lord rejoices over every one that He saves (Zephaniah 3:17). Let’s join Him in that joy!

O Lord, we praise you for every thing you are doing and we pray that you will do much more to advance your own name and cause in our day…Use us all to bring someone to Jesus and to bring glory to God.

A journey through 1 John reveals our place in the family of God, how we can have assurance, and that our joy is rooted in Christ.

Journey through 1 John

“Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.” (John 1:47-48)

Why the Story of Nathanael Sitting Under the Fig Tree Matters

It also discusses the Four Sermons in Haggai It is in that context that God raises up the prophet Haggai with four sermons in four months. The Word of the Lord comes to Haggai, and he preaches four sermons. Each one of them is dated for us. Each sermon targets a different problem. You can read them in Haggai chapters one and two. In his first sermon (Haggai 1:1-15), Haggai preached on the danger of waiting when we should be working. They were waiting for a sign to build. He said, You don't need a sign, you need to obey God. Haggai's second sermon (Haggai 2:1-9) explained the danger of lamenting the past and missing the present. They were sorrowing over the destruction of the past temple. God said, Build a new one. It was G. Campbell Morgan who said, “It is impossible to unlock the present with the rusty key of the past." Many people are bogged down in their past and miss the present. Keep in mind what is at hand and what is ahead. The third sermon he preached (Haggai 2:10-19) described the danger of seeing only the material and neglecting the supernatural. They could see the work that needed to be done, but they missed the fact that God had resources that would help them get it done. The Lord was behind all of this. The fourth sermon (Haggai 2:20-23) warned against the danger of recognizing who is against us and forgetting who is for us. They were concentrating on the opposition and forgetting that “greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). A journey through Haggai shows us the importance of performing the work that God has told us to do, and His glory in our obedience. Image leads to an overview of Haggai
