Signs of Good News 10-20-06

Good morning, Lord Jesus. I love You Lord, and I choose to begin this new day with my first thoughts on You. … "And they went out and proclaimed the good news everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by the signs that accompanied it" (Mark 16:20). Lord, You are faithful and gracious and good. You send us out in obedience to Your call and in the authority of Your name to proclaim the good news of the Kingdom of God everywhere we go. You take our brokenness and our limitations of human flesh and blood and let the light of Your glory shine through us as we lead others to You. When we are weak, You are strong; and You power is made perfect in our weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). According to Your Word, You humble Yourself to work with us and to work through us in Your ministry of love. Every day this week, I've seen or heard from someone who came to our Brokenness to Breakthrough conference last Saturday. You have been confirming Your message with Your signs of changed hearts and transformed lives. The steady process of healing and restoration of our lives into Your order is continuing to take place. Your kingdom is coming and Your will is being done in our hearts and in our lives as You continue to bring us from brokenness to breakthrough in the power of Your love. Some has been instantaneous and miraculous like the woman who immediately felt and incredible lifting of her burdens and the settling in of Your peace as we prayed. Most are sensing the steady and sure process of transformation through the healing and freedom You continue to bring step by step and day by day as they walk out the truth of Your Word in the power of Your love. And at the same time, there was the lady who has not yet been able to receive the good news of Your love and grace who said God was not with us or even in the building that day. I especially pray for her, that You would continue to go to the root and source of her pain and disappointment with You and Your messengers to draw out her pain and pour in Your love until she is free from the bondage of the past and experiences the fullness of the grace of God. Help this lady and each of us continue to turn to You to hear and receive the good news of Your Kingdom being made manifest in our lives every day. "The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God has come near; repent and believe in the good news!" (Mark 1:15). Yes, Lord, I do. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen. Be encouraged today!
