I did not know Charlie Kirk. I know what I have read and heard he was messenger of hope to millions. He lived a Christian life and demonstrated it over and over. He was only 31 years old. May he rest in the arms of my Lord and Savior.
Because Jesus already over come this world through His resurrection.
By the way Jesus was only 33 years old. He influenced the world he lived in. He continues that influence through His Word the Bible. He taught, preached, demonstrated the truth about sin.
Yes, only 33 years old he continues to influences millions today through the Holy Spirit of truth. He lived a very short and His life taken by his own.
He left behind a message that is still a contemporary message for our day and time. We must turn our hearts to Jesus and take up His cross and share the way to Heaven.
Charlie Kirk gave his life to teach his conservative message from His Lord and Savior, Jesus.
The best thing we can do is share Jesus message with a lost and dying world. The gospel will heal the hearts of sinful man. We have a great testimony from Jesus let us share it with he world so this kind of act will end.
Jesus said he would give us peace through the Gospel. Seek it. accept it, live it the power of the Holy Spirit.

I am Jesus-Exponential Blessings by Elmer Towns
Scripture: Galatians 5:16-25

Key Thought: I will give exponential blessings to those who put Me first in their life and seek to serve Me with their entire life.

“Those who believe…were baptized and added to the church…about 3000 in all. All believers devoted themselves to…teaching…fellowship…sharing meals…prayer…worshipped together…and met in homes for the Lord’s Supper.” Acts 2:41-42 NLT

I am Jesus who poured out EXPONENTIAL blessings on the new church. Those blessings were rapidly displayed in the church. They enjoyed My presence in their gatherings and they worshiped new and differently. They did not bring their animal sacrifices to the brazen altar. I was the lamb slain to take away sins (John 1:29). They worshiped

in their homes, and the streets belonged to the church to preach, testify, and serve. They went everywhere witnessing for Me. They experienced blessings never felt in the Old Testament. I had forgiven their sins, had indwelt their life, and had given them confidence and assurance never before realized. They were ministering directly for Me, not for the priest or temple. This was the age of the church-My presence in them. This was the age of the Holy Spirit-with EXPONENTIAL BLESSINGS.

PRAY: Lord, I admit my faith is sometimes dull and uninspiring. I don’t trust You for miracles, and I don’t expect EXPONENTIAL blessings in my life. Forgive my sins, revive my spirit, and give me a new vision of how I can serve You and receive EXPONENTIAL blessings. Amen.

I am Jesus who gives EXPONENTIAL blessings to those who seek to do My perfect will for their life (Romans 12:1). I will fill those with the Holy Spirit who seek and are yielded to me (I Corinthians 3:16, Ephesians 5:18). I will pour out EXPONENTIAL blessings on those who follow Me with exceptional faith.

PRAY: Lord, I want more in my life than I now have. I want Your presence to fill me with joy so I can worship You with honesty. I want You to give me power in service so I can do EXPONENTIAL ministry for You. I wait for Your presence. Amen.

DAY 7 40 Days of Prayer
I am Jesus-Less Than Exponential by Elmer Towns
Scripture: Revelation 2:1-29

Key Thought: I want every follower to be an exceptional Christian, but they are not. I want every church to be an exceptional church, but it isn’t.

“Write the letter…to the church in Laodicea…I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like the lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:14-16 NLT

I am the church of all types of believers-some who have grown in their faith, others who are carnal, even babies in Christ (I Corinthians 3:1). Therefore, not all churches have a strong exponential outreach. Letters were written to the 7 churches (Revelation 2-3). One left its first love of evangelism (Revelation 2:5), another was ignorant of doctrine and fell into error (Revelation 2:12-17), and another had members living in sin and immorality (Revelation 2:18-20). There were other problems, so I challenged them, “repent and do the first works” (Revelation 2:5 NKJV). Actually the spirituality of churches is reflection of the spirituality of its members. How spiritual is your church or its members? What must you do personally to have revival and become My exceptional followers?

PRAY: Lord, sometimes I am blind to sin in my life (ignorant sin). Open my eyes to see anything that is holding me back. My problem is, I don’t yield enough to You and I don’t pursue godliness. Make me an exceptional follower so that my church will express exceptional evangelism and growth. Amen.

I am Jesus. I indwell all believers, but not everyone is a shining testimony to the gospel light. Some have not tried to grow in their faith; others have given into temptation and sinned against Me. Sin blinds their spiritual eyes so they don’t know what they do, nor do they know how blind they are to Me.

PRAY: Lord, forgive my sin, cleanse me and make me usable. Fill me with the Holy Spirit to serve you effectively. Make me an exceptional follower. I want to be a member of an EXPONENTIAL church. Amen.

Pray for 10,000 new disciples in the next ten years through our NKBA churches.

Day 5 40 Days of Prayer

I am Jesus-Exponential Praying by Elmer Towns
Scripture: Acts 12:5-19

Key Thought: When believers in a church seek the fullness of the Holy Spirit and let Him control their life and ministry, the church will have exponential blessings.

“I will pour out My Spirit upon all people.” Joel 2:29 NLT

“Suddenly, there was a sound from heaven like the roaring of a mighty windstorm…it filled the house…everyone was filled with the Holy Spirit.”
Acts 2:2, 4 NLT

I am Jesus who poured out the Holy Spirit on 120 believers on the Day of Pentecost. It didn’t happen just because I promised to do it. It happened because they fasted and prayed and prepared to obey the Great Commission. They fasted and prayed for 50 days. That is a long time to continue praying and worshiping without seeing results. How long will you worship, and wait, and pray, to become an EXPONENTIAL church that will change the world? Remember, because they had the power of the Holy Spirit, it was said, “these that have turned the world upside down are come here also” (Acts 17:5). To get EXPONENTIAL results, you must be an exceptional follower. Go stand under the spigot, pray and wait for me to fill you.

PRAY: Lord, I want to change my world. I want to worship and pray exponentially. I want to testify and serve exponentially. I want to see exponential results in my church. Use me to begin. Amen.

I am Jesus who will make you an exceptional follower. If you let Me pour out the Holy Spirit on you, you can see EXPONENTIAL results in your prayer life, in your Bible Study, your ministry and your worship. Are you satisfied with the old life you lived before I came into your life? Begin by being filled with the Spirit. Stand, wait, pray, and believe.

PRAY: Lord, I don’t want a self-centered life like people in the world. I want to be a Christ-centered follower of YOU. I want YOU to control my life. Control my thoughts…my desires…my work…and my leisure activities. I yield to You fully. Amen.

Pray for 10,000 new disciples in the next ten years through our NKBA churches. . Pray for Ruby Robertson reaction to medicine. Pray for Debbie Staggs she has a kidney problem. Keep pastor in prayer as he recovers from a stomach problem. Tim Sanders has a young cousin had a stroke. Keep my friend Gary Wilson as he regains his weight from cancer treatment. Mark Walgomott is having a lot of back pain.

We need to pray for God's leadership and His plans after the church are re-opened. We still will need to be diligent and take safety measures. Pray that God will open the hearts of the people and turn to Jehovah God.

Day 3 40 DAYS OF PRAYER DEVOTIONAL

I AM JESUS-A CHURCH PRAYING by Elmer Towns
Scripture: Acts 4:1-31

Key Thought: The Great Commission expects great results in your church, so you and all in the church must give yourselves to great prayer.

“Stay here in the city until the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power.” Luke 24:49 NLT

“Then they all prayed…all the believers were meeting together in one place, suddenly…everyone present was filled with the Holy Spirit.” Acts 1:24, 2:1, 4

I am Jesus…the church gathered for prayer-exponential prayer. Not just another group prayer meeting, but a time of confessing sin, admitting your failures, begging for spiritual power and faith to believe the Holy Spirit will come to till with zeal and soul-winning evangelism. The early church prayed with boldness (Acts 4:29), and the room was shaken. Ultimately they were accused of “turning the world upside down” (Acts 17:6). What does that mean? The gospel transforms people and they changed their life and family. When that is added to a whole church, a neighborhood is turned upside down. Do you believe the church can change the world? Since I indwell a person (Gal. 2:20), let Me shine through you into your family and world.

PRAY: Fill me with the Holy Spirit and revive me, so my testimony can revive my church and change my world. Amen.

I am Jesus who promised “if you ask anything in My name, I will do it” (John 14:14 NKJV). So what is on your prayer list? Are you praying for lost family members to be saved? Have you prayed for opportunities to witness to them, to get them under gospel preaching? Everything in your walk with Me begins with prayer. First, pray to know Me. Then pray to be filled with great faith; and third, pray to be an aggressive soul winner. Ask for revival in your church-then people will get saved: “You do not have because you do not ask” (James 4:2 NKJV).

PRAYER: Lord teach me to pray with bigger faith to expect You to do more in my family and church. Teach me to pray for bigger results in evangelism. Lord, give me a bigger burden to worship and serve You in all I do. Amen.

Pray for our NKBA churches Pendleton and Bracken Counties: Brooksville and Second Twelve Mile. Pray for 10,000 baptisms/new disciples in the next ten years through our NKBA churches.
