Verse of the week:
Joshua 5:14 NIV
“…What message does my Lord have for his servant?”

“Legal, but not beneficial.”
Paule Przygoda

“Do not spend money on anything that is not real food. You work hard for your money, so do not spend it on things that do not help you.”
Isaiah 55:2 EASY

SENTINELS, all over the world, we are grateful for the privilege of knowing God and maturing in our communion with His beloved Son, Jesus Christ.
We wish to understand the importance of His redemptive work at the cross for us. We believed in Him, and we were saved for “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 NIV
These are the elementary teachings about Christ which the apostle talked about in the book of Hebrews.
Then, our yearning for Him starts, and we find out there is so much more to discover in one lifetime.
And like the multitude who spent three full days without food, listening to Him in the desert, we desire Him: “Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.” Matthew 15:32 NIV
We bless the day that He did not send us away hungry and thirsty, but instead filled us with more profound truths, more love for Him, and a more incredible determination to know Him better. “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”
Matthew 5:6 NIV

We find ourselves repenting from acts that lead to death and vow to embrace our new identity in Christ.

Then, we wanted the world to know that we belonged to Him. We made a public engagement to follow after Him.
We got baptized; this is one of the baptisms the apostle talked about in Hebrews 6:1.

“Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.” Acts 2:41 NIV

“Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.” Mark 16:16 NIV

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,” Matthew 28:19 NIV

“and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,” 1 Peter 3:21 NIV

We start our relationship with God through His Son, JESUS, on such a high note, and from there, we want to go deeper and deeper into full communion, until we are in Him and Him in us. “I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.” John 17:26 NIV

We are praying for the following:
11 Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
12 Bahamas 🇧🇸
13 Bahrain 🇧🇭
14 Bangladesh 🇧🇩
15 Barbados 🇧🇧

We pray that God grants wisdom to those who have control over the legislature of these countries.
We pray for the current leaders of the Church that they may unite in the spirit to exalt the name of Jesus Christ.
We pray for a shield of protection around the missionaries sent to these parts of the world.
We pray that the Holy Spirit may strengthen them so that they know that: “Brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” 1 Corinthians 15:58 NIV
SENTINELS, let's pray.

The Lord comes to your battlefield with a specific instruction: “Take off your sandals because this place where you are standing is holy.”
As you already know, this year is all about you.
It will help if you do not lose time and energy shouting at the Devil; because, together with all his demons, they have been defeated by the blood🩸. This practice was so last year.
Instead, You are renewing your mind, analyzing your behavior, revising your strategy, reorganizing your preference, reinforcing your defense, expanding your knowledge, and excelling in self-examination.
So, “take off your sandals because this is a holy year (I mean holy ground).
O, the BLOOD🩸OF YESHUA!

Verse of the week:
1 Corinthians 9:26-27 GW
“So I run—but not without a clear goal ahead of me. So I box—but not as if I were just shadow boxing. Rather, I toughen my body with punches and make it my slave so that I will not be disqualified after I have spread the Good News to others.”

“What you know, I also know;…”
Job 13:2 NIV

“Lying prostrate, face down before God, is the ultimate expression of humility and worship and one that the enemy fears the most. Do this often.”
Paule Przygoda

“Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”
Matthew 26:39 NIV

Sentinels, all over the world, the miracle we have been praying for throughout the past year is finally here. Yes, it is right in front of our eyes. We can not miss it. It is us. We made it. We could have granted our enemy his wish. The first sentence of John 10:10 could have been realized in our lives. “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy;...”
But God!
God answered us with a clangorous thunder. He gave us victory. He dug us out of the grave. He snuffed out the fire of the furnace. He shut the mouths of the lions. Oh, I feel the HOLY SPIRIT is talking right now. He even pulled us from the pit of hell and told His angels: “…‘Spare them from going down to the pit; I have found a ransom for them—“ (Jesus) Job 33:24 NIV
That is why we are still walking among the living, and we thank Him.
We will, with His grace, by the righteousness of His beloved Son JESUS and the strength of the HOLY SPIRIT, make the most of the vitality gifted to us.
We will improve our worship time and get closer to Him, praise Him, and live victoriously for the rest of the year. We will watch our relationships and associations to abstain from immorality. We will eat well, DRINK WATER, exercise, and study to pursue the knowledge of the vast material and spiritual world in which our descendants and us will live for a long, long time.
Our journey starts now, and it's pretty exciting.
All aboard. Welcome to the life you were created for!

As we discussed, this year, we are growing in Christ. We want to know Christ for ourselves. Please review the verses mentioned in our last post, and read Hebrews 6:1-3, “Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God, instruction about cleansing rites, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. And God permitting, we will do so.”

The SENTINELS are praying for the following countries this week:
6 Antigua and Barbuda 🇦🇬
7 Argentina 🇦🇷
8 Armenia 🇦🇲
9 Australia 🇦🇺
10 Austria 🇦🇹

We pray that God grants wisdom to those who govern.
We pray the Holy Spirit visits the people living in these regions of the world with conviction and fear of the Lord.
We pray for the safety of the missionaries in these countries.
We pray for the Church.
SENTINELS, let's pray.

So I run - and this time, I have a clear goal: to be all Christ intended for me to be when He died on the cross: saved, healed, wealthy, joyful, and loved, ...
So I box - and this time, I am not throwing punches in the air, but I aim at the target, and I strike.
I toughen my body. I tell it when to or not to eat and when to be awake or to rest. I tell my body to drink water. I tell my mind to stop grumbling.
I deal with my problems. I face my adversaries. I confront my opposition.
I give no resting place to demons in my mind, spirit, or body.
This is the new year, a “new me” attitude, and I have no shame because my life is no game.
HALLELUJAH! The BLOOD🩸OF JESUS CHRIST!

Verse of the week:
Psalms 23:1 EASY
“The Lord takes care of me like a shepherd with his sheep. I have everything that I need.”

“God believes in you as much as you believe in Him. If you have a goal, find a way to accomplish it. He does not want you to keep asking Him all the time. He wants you to do some things by yourself.”

SENTINELS all over the world, we thank God for moving us to another realm of His glory.
If we made it through the previous year, we will make it again. The Apostle said this: “He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him, we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us,” 2 Corinthians 1:10 NIV

Our focus for the next fifty-two weeks will be on knowing Christ and the significance of His sacrifice for us. “I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,”
Philippians 3:10 NIV
By next year, you will say: “In the past, I had heard about you from other people. Now I have seen you for myself.” Job 42:5 EASY

Our love story with Jesus Christ started like this: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16 NIV

Jesus, the Son of God, came to earth, died on the cross, and redeemed us from the law of sin and death.

What is the law of sin and death?
“Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people because all sinned—” Romans 5:12 NIV

How do we get free from the law of sin and death?
“All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.” Acts 10:43 NIV

We believe in the name of Jesus, we receive forgiveness, and we are free from the law of sin and death.
“Christ redeemed us from the law's curse by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.” Galatians 3:13 NIV

Now, this is salvation. This is our first step to our new life in Christ.
We will dive deeper into what was accomplished after we were forgiven.

This week, we start our world tour on our knees for the Nations.
We pray over the list in alphabetical order, and sometimes, we give our attention to critical conditions confronting the citizens of specific nations.
We pray that God pours His Spirit of grace and supplication on us in a more significant measure that our burden for the lost would increase our time in prayer.
We pray that God, by His Holy Spirit, visits the earth with a mighty revival and a hunger for His presence never seen before.
We pray that we cast out demons, heal the sick and raise the dead as Jesus commands in Matthew 10:8, “Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons...”
SENTINELS, we pray.

We intercede for the following countries:
1. Afghanistan 🇦🇫

2. Albania 🇦🇱

3. Algeria 🇩🇿

4. Andorra🇦🇩

5. Angola 🇦🇴

We’re praying for God to intervene in the government of these nations.
We pray for the safety of the frontline workers in these nations: the missionaries. The Church sends them to different groups of people, and their work can sometimes be difficult and dangerous. Pray that they are encouraged daily by our prayers and support.
SENTINELS, LET’S PRAY!

The war is over. We understood that, at some point, we had to break from all this shouting, roaring, and fighting; nevertheless, we did not know that the Holy Spirit would make it so evident to all. He says to rediscover our peace and regain our equilibrium in Psalm 23.
We don't have to be a prophet to know God is telling us to sit back and relax. He is in charge. This year ‘23 is our year for comfort, charm, favor, convenience, love, elegance, and greatness. Engagement, weddings, possessions, travel...
“Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” John 8:10 NIV

For “the Lord is our Shepherd.”

Verse of the year:
Jeremiah 20:11 GW
“But the Lord is on my side like a terrifying warrior. That is why those who persecute me will stumble. They can’t win. They will be very ashamed that they can’t succeed. Their eternal shame will not be forgotten.”

These verses are to be prayed by anyone who desires to achieve greatness in 2023.

Psalms 119:31-32 TPT
“Lord, don’t allow me to make a mess of my life, for I cling to your commands and follow them as closely as I can. I will run after you with delight in my heart, for you will make me obedient to your instructions.”

“What you know, I also know;…”
Job 13:2 NIV

“Clap your hands as you pray. This helps you focus on the splendor of the majesty of God and frighten the evil spirits of sleep and slumber.”
Paule Przygoda

“Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy. For the Lord Most High is awesome, the great King over all the earth.”
Psalms 47:1-2 NIV

SENTINELS, all over the world, in five days, by God’s grace, we will cross over to the following year. We are the evidence of the goodness and the faithfulness of God. We have been safeguarded, protected, provided for, and guided by His unwavering love. King David, after looking over his failures, his triumphs, and his blessings year after year, said you know what: “I love the Lord, for...” Psalm 116:1 NIV
We conclude our Giving and Praising.
May we each take time to find a reason to appreciate God, praise, and worship Him.
Grab your prayer journals, and write down the many blessings you have greatly enjoyed these past years.
Don't forget to thank Him for allowing you to stay in His presence. It's a privilege to be given an audience in His court. Even the angels would love to look into the mysteries revealed to you because of the blood🩸of Jesus.
“It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you, when they spoke of the things that have now been told you by those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even angels long to look into these things.” 1 Peter 1:12 NIV
Remember the benefits the blood🩸of Jesus Christ gave you. We are even teaching those who inhabit the heavenly realms - the angels. Read carefully Ephesians 3:8-11 NIV: “Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the boundless riches of Christ, and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things. He intended that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
My fellow Christians, once you realize who you are because of Christ, you can spend eternity praising God.
This year, by God’s grace, we will grow deeper in the knowledge of Christ in us, the hope of glory.
“To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.” Colossians 1:27 NIV
We are to leave these petty, elementary things behind and press forward as the apostle penned in Hebrews 6:1-3 NIV: “Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken on to maturity, not laying the foundation of repentance from acts that lead again to death, and of faith in God, instruction about cleansing rites, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. And God permitting, we will do so.”What an excellent way to usher into 2023!
One piece of advice: the enemy will always try to contend with you, but stand firm on the Word and resist him.
“Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.” 1 Peter 5:9 NIV

This week, we pray for the men and women of God around the world.
We pray for their lights to shine brighter.
We pray that the Holy Spirit takes control over their ministries and that there is no quarreling, infighting, contentious or envious spirits among them.
Pray that they realize that none, whosoever it may be, can bring to Christ all by him or herself, this vast multitude - the seven billion and counting humans on earth. They need each other's gifts.
“For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us...” Romans 12:4-6 NIV
By the way, every man and woman of God should daily look over Romans 12. Fair to say.

“THEY WON’T WIN.”

Verse of the week:
Revelation 5:6 AMP
“And there between the throne (with the four living creatures) and among the elders I saw a Lamb (Christ) standing, [bearing scars and wounds] as though it had been slain, with seven horns (complete power) and with seven eyes (complete knowledge), which are the seven Spirits of God who have been sent [on duty] into all the earth.”

“What you know, I also know;…”
Job 13:2 NIV

“Sometimes, you must step outside and call your soul to come back, from wherever it might have been tied, entangled, or summoned as King David did in Psalms 116:7.
“Return to your rest, O my soul…”
Paule Przygoda

SENTINELS all over the world, we are overwhelmed by the goodness and mercy we have received from God throughout the past three-hundred and fifty days. It is impressive to ponder on His power to watch over us and ensure that all of our needs are satisfied.
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 NIV

Twelve days before the following year, we carry on with our Giving and Praising project.
In contrast with the current system of offering collection in our congregations, those who believed were never constrained by their leaders to give to God. There was always an excess amount of money; they would be asked to keep their offerings until the next time.
Exodus 36:6-7 EASY: “So Moses sent a message to everyone in the whole camp. He said, ‘No man or woman must offer any more gifts for the work of the tabernacle.’ When the people heard Moses' message, they did not bring any more gifts. The workers already had more things than they needed to finish all the work.”

They brought their offering in faith with joy, knowing it was for the work of the Lord and those who bid His services.
2 Chronicles 31:10 NIV: “and Azariah, the chief priest from the family of Zadok, answered, “Since the people began to bring their contributions to the temple of the Lord, we have had enough to eat and plenty to spare because the Lord has blessed his people, and this great amount is left over.”

It was never a question of whether or not to give, but whether my offering would be accepted by God.
Cain and Abel knew they had to give, although God never asked them to.
Genesis 4:3-5 NIV: “In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.”

King Solomon offered a costly gift to God, and God appeared to him in a dream and asked him: “What is it that you want?"
2 Chronicles 1:6-7 NIV: “Solomon went up to the bronze altar before the Lord in the tent of meeting and offered a thousand burnt offerings on it. That night God appeared to Solomon and said, “Ask for whatever you want me to give you.”
Then King Solomon gave again, and the entire assembly gave to God likewise.
2 Chronicles 5:6 NIV: “King Solomon and the entire assembly of Israel that had gathered about him were before the ark, sacrificing so many sheep and cattle that they could not be recorded or counted.”

For those of us who are waiting to be as rich as King Solomon to give, we say Solomon became rich only after he started his giving spree.
And we should give what we have. Read Mark 12:41-44 NIV “Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents. Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”

Why are we reluctant to give to God? Simple. The enemy of our souls will significantly benefit from keeping us in poverty. We will constantly be anxious, burdened, tormented, distressed, and in fear because most evil spirits harassing us serve as lackeys to the demon of poverty.
As we Give and Praise God, He will give us the power to possess wealth. Deuteronomy 8:18 GNT: “Remember that it is the Lord your God who gives you the power to become rich. He does this because he is still faithful today to the covenant that he made with your ancestors.”

This week, we are praying for the nation of Israel 🇮🇱.
We pray that God saves and protects Jewish people worldwide and that they continue to be a testament to the faithfulness of God.

Pray for an impartation of more grace on the men and women of God of this generation so that the Gospel is preached, followed by signs and wonders for the glory of God.
SENTINELS, let's pray.

Why have we not referred to ourselves as world Champions from the first day we met Jesus?
After reading the week's verse, we know that our opponents should be terrified of our appearance. We have seven horns on our foreheads and seven eyes on our bodies. This looks pretty scary to me.
The reason they managed to pe*****te our camps was because of our lack of knowledge; we trust them instead standing firmly on the Word of God.
Never again. The Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, lives in us, and He has full power and knowledge. They are done.
Oh! The BLOOD🩸OF YESHUA!

Verse of the week:
Proverbs 6:31 EASY
“But if someone catches him, he must pay back seven times what he took. He may lose everything that he has in his house.”

“My fellow Christians, may the title of your sermon be not the gossip you heard about a man or woman of God. May you never rejoice in their downfall or grow a ministry around their mistakes.”
Paule Przygoda

“Who do you think you are to sit in judgment of someone else’s household servant? His own master is the one to evaluate whether he succeeds or fails. And God’s servants will succeed, for God’s power supports them and enables them to stand.”
Romans 14:4 TPT

SENTINELS all over the world, we are grateful for the safety under the shadow of the Almighty. How did we make it through these past 345 days? Only because His promises are as good as His Word: Psalms 91:3-4 NIV, “Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.”
For the following 20 days, we will continue our “G and P.” Giving and Praising.
We read in Luke 6:38: “Give, and it will be given to you...” If we rightly divide the Word, we can say that our giving precedes our receiving.
The enemy will make us think of all the reasons not to give to keep us in bo***ge.
One of the most common reasons is that we will make our pastors richer. Another is we don't know what they do with our money.
But when the Devil demands a sacrifice, we never ask him why he needs it or what he is about to do with it. We always stand ready.
We are reluctant to give because we think we are enriching pastors or ministers. But, in reality the enemy of our souls is the one who significantly benefits by keeping us from giving and in poverty.
The spirit of poverty is the strong man behind many other foul spirits. We know that by not eating right, we can be afflicted with many diseases. Poverty can be blamed.
We also know that worries, sleepless nights, anxiety, depression, distress, fear and even death can also be traced to poverty because according to Ecclesiastes 10:19 NIV, “A feast is made for laughter, wine makes life merry, and money is the answer for everything.”
Now we have a clear understanding of why the poorer we are the more vulnerable we can be to the kingdom of darkness.
Even certain sins can be traced to poverty, for these evil spirits work together (unlike us Christians who work against each other; sorry, had to throw this truth in).
Many long hours at the job, leaving our spouse for a faraway land, taking rides from a seductress, and not spending enough time with our family because of financial difficulties can lead to sins.
The spirit of poverty stands shoulder-to-shoulder with laziness, inactivity, slumber, carelessness, hatred, and envy, among others.
Let's G and P. Give and Praise starting today to free ourselves and loved ones from our enemy's bo***ge.
Our God is standing ready to declare over our offerings: “The Lord will bless you with lots of food to store. He will bless all the work that you do. He will bless you very much in the land that he is giving to you.” Deuteronomy 28:8 EASY

This week, we stand together in prayer for:
The healthcare providers, along with the medical scientific research field workers.
We pray that God increases their intelligence, wisdom, and professionalism to help humanity cope with all the grave and common diseases.
We pray that God uses and strengthen them in Jesus' Name.

We pray for a more significant measure of purity and holiness for the men and women of God around the world.
We pray against distraction, lust and sexual immorality among us.
We pray that our day-to-day lives are a testament to our Christian beliefs.
SENTINELS, let's pray for each other.

Nope. They won’t get away with it. If it were stolen, exchanged, damaged, diverted, or deflected by our enemies, they would be in great trouble. They can no longer have our possession in their custody. They are ordered to give back seven times what they took. Our joys, comfort, enthusiasm, “joie de vivre,” all must be returned.
Oh! The thrill through the BLOOD🩸of YESHUA!

Verse of the week:
Amos 8:11 NIV
“The days are coming,” declares the Sovereign Lord, “when I will send a famine through the land— not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the Lord.”

“My fellow CHRISTians, God calls and appoints, and His choice almost always surprises us.”
Paule Przygoda

“Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to him those he wanted, and they came to him.”
Mark 3:13 NIV

SENTINELS all over the world, this is the season to gather and celebrate the faithfulness of God.
We could not survive these past 336 days if not for His loyalty to us. “This God is our God forever and ever. He will lead us from now to the end of time!” Psalm 48:14 NIV
We can also say like Job: “My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you.”
Job 42:5 NIV
We are grateful for His protection and dedicate the remaining 26 days of this year to GIVE a sacrificial offering and PRAISE His holy name.
G & P, that is.
Only those who want to know the deep things of God carry with them their offerings. Some will pray and sing but keep their money tied at home, like that donkey, even if they know the Lord needs it. “If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it.’ ”
Luke 19:31 NIV
Abraham knew the heart of God regarding the situation of his wife, Sarah, and his nephew, Lot, because of his offering.
“The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day…He said, “If I have found favor in your eyes, my Lord, do not pass your servant by. Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet and rest under this tree. Let me get you something to eat, so you can be refreshed and then go on your way—now that you have come to your servant.” “Very well,” they answered, “do as you say.” Genesis 18:1, 3-5 NIV
This offering of Abraham unlocked two secrets hidden in the heart of God.
First, “by this time next year, Sarah will have a child.” And this was the mother of all miracles because Sarah was 90 years old and Abraham 99.
Isaac was born at the very same time next year.
Second, Abraham’s offering made God unable to hide His secret plan to destroy Lot together with S***m and Gomorrah. He thought: “…[Can] I hide from Abraham what I am about to do?”
Genesis 18:17 NIV
And God saved Lot because his uncle could dig deep into the secret place and get a revelation from God. “The men turned away and went toward S***m, but Abraham remained standing before the Lord. Then Abraham approached him and said: “Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked?”
Genesis 18:22-23 NIV
Therefore, we can redeem a spouse, a child, a nephew, or an entire nation with our sacrifice of Giving.
And the God of Abraham is ready to exclaim these words on our offerings: “BY THIS TIME NEXT YEAR, or BY DECEMBER 31st THIS YEAR, YOU WILL TESTIFY OF MY GOODNESS!”

We are in prayer this week for the foster children, the orphans, and their caretakers.
Pray that God sends His angels to protect and comfort their tender hearts.
Pray that they are mentally strong, physically healthy, and spiritually powerful.
We also pray for a spirit of prayer and supplication to fall on the men and women of God around the world that will trigger a revival and a harvest of souls validated by signs and wonders for the glory of God.
SENTINELS, LET'S PRAY!

When they come to you hungry and thirsty for the Word of God, don't send them home with a laugh but with tears of conviction.
When they sit on your pews, hoping to hear from God, don't tell them about your credentials.
When they come to you weary and burdened, the last thing they will want to hear are the names on the blotter.
Could you give them the Bread of life? Because they're hungry. Would you tell them about the fountain that never runs dry? Because they're thirsty. Would you?
Oh! THE BLOOD🩸of YESHUA!
