“From Place to Place, Proclaiming the Word” 10-1-10

Good morning, Lord Jesus. By the blood of the Lamb, I’m a son of God; and in the communion of prayer, I’m a friend of God. My Father and Friend, I thank You for drawing near to me, as I draw near to You. … “Now those who were scattered went from place to place, proclaiming the Word. Phillip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed the Messiah to them. The crowds with one accord listened eagerly to what was said by Phillip, hearing and seeing the signs that he did, for unclean spirits, crying with loud shrieks, came out of many who were possessed; and many others who were paralyzed or lame were cured. So there was great joy in that city…. When they believed Phillip, who was proclaiming the Good News about the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women” (Acts 8:4-12). Thank You for the great gift, honor, and opportunity to know the love of God, revealed in Jesus the Christ, and to share the Good News about the Kingdom of God everywhere You send me, proclaiming Your Word in the power of Your Spirit. Awaken within me the faith and passion of Your early Church. But even more, awaken within me the faith and passion Your desire for Your end times Church. May I be part of the Body and Bride of Christ, moving in the nature of Your love and the power of Your Spirit to proclaim Your name and display Your glory throughout the nations of the earth as never seen before. The glory of the latter will be even greater than the glory of the former, as You “fill this house with splendor” and “the treasure of all nations shall come” (Haggai 2:6-9). Your prophecy will be fulfilled that “the one who believes in Me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do even greater works than these” (John 14:12). Through Your people, by Your Spirit, You are proclaiming the coming of the Kingdom of God and demonstrating in the power of God, so that all will come to know You are God and You are great and You love each one of us. You want to forgive us of our sins, heal us of our hurts, free us from our bondage, fill us with Your Holy Spirit, and love us as Your sons and daughters. That’s the Good News that brings great joy to the cities and nations of all who believe. Everywhere we are scattered and everywhere we are sent, let us proclaim with boldness and joy the goodness of God. Today, You’re sending me to the nation of Wales, where our team will travel “from place to place, proclaiming the Word” to the souls who are hungering and thirsting for an encounter with You—whether they know it or not. May there be salvation, healing, and freedom wherever we go because You go with us and Your Spirit is upon us. May You awaken us and awaken Your Bride to arise and shine to be Your Body in this nation and throughout the nations of the earth. “And this Good News of the Kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the world, as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14). In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen. Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays Friends, I'm leaving today for our ministry trip to Wales.
