Good Afternoon All,
I am sure by now that you have heard the news coming from our President, President Trump. The health professionals are preparing us for the deaths of over 100,000 Americans in the coming months.
This is far more severe than we first thought. Today I believe that our Lord is saying to us “Fan into Flame the Gift of God”. “No weapon formed against us shall prosper.” As we watch all of the networks, it seems that they are all attempting to spread fear among us. To counter fear we must increase our faith. Please go back and watch the first 2 parts of “Fear Not.”
Last week God reminded us that the reason why we should not fear is that “God Is With Us“. This week, God reminded us through Pastor Brian that “God Fights for Us“.
Please take some time today to read the scripture below, and answer the questions.
2 Timothy 1:3–7:
3 I thank God whom I serve, as did my ancestors, with a clear conscience, as I remember you constantly in my prayers night and day. 4 As I remember your tears, I long to see you, that I may be filled with joy. 5 I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you as well. 6 For this reason, I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands, 7 for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.
1. “What does this passage teach us about God?”
2. “What does this passage teach us about humanity?”
3. “If we believe this passage is from God, how must we change?”
4. “With whom are you going to share this passage?”
Please continue to keep our CT family in your prayers. I continue to pray for you and your family. If you are in need, please let us know by calling the church office, or one of the Pastors.
Grace and Peace,
Pastor Ray
