This afternoon I am helping to conduct a prayer rally in the Akron-Canton, Ohio area. This meeting with churches from around the region is for one purpose: to set ourselves right with God and to seek God’s face for revival and the advancement of the gospel. Will you help us pray?

Today’s prayer meeting is part of preparation for the God Bless America Rally that will be conducted here in Stark County, Ohio on May 1-4, 2019. I look forward to being back to preach in that meeting. But I am convinced that the preaching is in vain without the praying. The first meeting in the book of Acts was a prayer meeting, and all of the preaching and all of the power flowed out of that. Will you help us pray?

Praying people are also people of action. It was John Bunyan who said, “We can do more than pray after we have prayed but we can do nothing until we have prayed.” We are enlisting others who will help us in the following ways:

  1. Pray! Ask the Lord to send a spiritual awakening to His people, to strengthen churches, and to bring many souls to the Lord Jesus Christ. You can find regular updates on the God Bless America Website and Facebook.
  2. Come. If you are within driving distance of the prayer rally or the God Bless America Crusade we would love for you to join us. Bring a car load or bus load of people with you! If there is someone you are burdened to see saved work to get them to the rally. Full details on the meetings may be found at Godblessamericarally.com/schedule.
  3. Go. Each Saturday during the month of April we will have people out witnessing and inviting folks to the crusade. Some laborers are coming to spend the entire month. There will be gospel teams out every day. The gospel cannot be confined to organized meetings! It would be thrilling if you or a group from your local church would be willing to come and help. This would be a great day trip/ministry for a youth group, senior saints group, or anyone who wants to speak to people about the Lord. If you would like more information on participating in this gospel effort you may contact Corban Butler at [email protected].
  4. Give. An undertaking of this magnitude requires a great investment in every way. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation to this work you may do so securely at Godblessamericarally.com/donate.

I hope you will ask the Lord how He wants you to be involved. Most of all I trust you will help us pray! “Ye also helping together by prayer for us…” (2 Corinthians 1:11)

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
