Our God is Faithful

  Once again, I am completely overwhelmed by our God's great faithfulness. We have been experiencing such incredible release in our services and the Holy Spirit is doing redemptive work among the people of our church. People are coming to Christ in salvation, being healed emotionally and physically and there is a growing hunger in the hearts of the people to win the lost to Jesus. We have committed ourselves in 2009 to "Win Our City One Soul at A Time," and we are seeing doors open and a new receptivity in the community to the love of Jesus everyday. Our staff is meeting every Saturday night in prayer and we are believing for new strategies, new outreaches and new ministries to be born. It is a very exciting time for us and I am truly humbled to think that the Lord would use me to partner in this great work being done in the earth during these last days.
  The words of Jeremiah from the book of Lamentations that were so wonderfully put to music by Thomas O. Chisholm in his hymn ring continually in my ears and I am grateful....

Great is Thy faithfulness
Oh God, my Father
There is no shadow of turning in Thee
Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be.

Great is Thy faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hands have provided,
Great is Thy faithfulness
Lord unto me.
