The Glory of the New Covenant

"The old way, with laws etched in stone, led to death, though it began with such glory that the people of Israel could not bear to look at Moses’ face. For his face shone with the glory of God ..." 2Corinthians 3:7).

If the old way, which brings condemnation, was glorious, how much more glorious is the new way, which makes us right with God! Shouldn’t we expect far greater glory under the new way, now that the Holy Spirit is giving life?

So if the old way, which has been replaced, was glorious, how much more glorious is the new, which remains forever! Since this new way gives us such confidence, we can be very bold. We are not like Moses, who put a veil over his face so the people of Israel would not see the glory, even though it was destined to fade away.

But the people’s minds were hardened, and to this day whenever the old covenant is being read, the same veil covers their minds so they cannot understand the truth. And this veil can be removed only by believing in Christ. Yes, even today when they read Moses’ writings, their hearts are covered with that veil, and they do not understand.

But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord.

The Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image. (Taken from 2Corihians 3:8-18)

God's Plan for Your Life

Something is missing from your life, and yes, you know it. You know God's promises, but deep inside your heart you are wavering. You are wondering how you can be sure God will come true for you.

To find the answer to that question, you need more than a kowledge of God's power and promises. You need a personal relationship with Him, and more specifically, you need a personal revelation of His Love.

So what has God provided for your salvation? He has provided His only begotten Son to be the Savior of the world. In the book of Acts 16:30-31, we are told to "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved."

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16).

The Apostle Paul in his letter to the Ephesians wrote that we might "know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullnes of God" (Ephesians 3:19).

My only protector is my Lord King of kings and Lord of lords. The very Word of God became flesh to take the punishment for sin upon himself.

Those who believe in him will not fall into Judgment but will be with the Lord forever Clothed with the Holy Spirit of God. They will have the right to be called children of God.

If you have never known God's unconditional love for you, ask Him for a personal revelation. If you have never ask Jesus to be the Lord of your life, then invite Him in your heart by praying these words:

 "Dear God in Heaven, I confess that I am a sinner without hope of eternal life. I ask for your forgiveness and right now, this very moment invite Jesus into my life as my Lord and Savior. I give myself to you and according to your word, I am now your child and I'm saved. Thank you Lord."

President Barack Obama: NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER Proclamation: 2010 We are blessed to live in a Nation that counts freedom of conscience and free exercise of religion among its most fundamental principles, thereby ensuring that all people of goodwill may hold and practice their beliefs according to the dictates of their consciences. Prayer has been a sustaining way for many Americans of diverse faiths to express their most cherished beliefs, and thus we have long deemed it fitting and proper to publicly recognize the importance of prayer on this day across the Nation.

A PROCLAMATION

Throughout our history, whether in times of great joy and thanksgiving, or in times of great challenge and uncertainty, Americans have turned to prayer. In prayer, we have expressed gratitude and humility, sought guidance and forgiveness, and received inspiration and assistance, both in good times and in bad.

On this day, let us give thanks for the many blessings God has bestowed upon our Nation. Let us rejoice for the blessing of freedom both to believe and to live our beliefs, and for the many other freedoms and opportunities that bring us together as one Nation. Let us ask for wisdom, compassion, and discernment of justice as we address the great challenges of our time.

We are blessed to live in a Nation that counts freedom of conscience and free exercise of religion among its most fundamental principles, thereby ensuring that all people of goodwill may hold and practice their beliefs according to the dictates of their consciences. Prayer has been a sustaining way for many Americans of diverse faiths to express their most cherished beliefs, and thus we have long deemed it fitting and proper to publicly recognize the importance of prayer on this day across the Nation.

Let us remember in our thoughts and prayers those suffering from natural disasters in Haiti, Chile, and elsewhere, and the people from those countries and from around the world who have worked tirelessly and selflessly to render aid. Let us pray for the families of the West Virginia miners, and the people of Poland who so recently and unexpectedly lost many of their beloved leaders. Let us pray for the safety and success of those who have left home to serve in our Armed Forces, putting their lives at risk in order to make the world a safer place. As we remember them, let us not forget their families and the substantial sacrifices that they make every day. Let us remember the unsung heroes who struggle to build their communities, raise their families, and help their neighbors, for they are the wellspring of our greatness. Finally, let us remember in our thoughts and prayers those people everywhere who join us in the aspiration for a world that is just, peaceful, free, and respectful of the dignity of every human being.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America do hereby proclaim May 6, 2010, as a National Day of Prayer. I call upon the citizens of our Nation to pray, or otherwise give thanks, in accordance with their own faiths and consciences, for our many freedoms and blessings, and I invite all people of faith to join me in asking for God’s continued guidance, grace, and protection as we meet the challenges before us.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this thirtieth day of April, in the year of our Lord two thousand ten, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fourth.

For The Sake of Our Children We Pray

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land (2 Chron. 7:14).

This is what our nation needs, prayer for God's intervention to bless and heal our country. We pray for our Families, Neighbors, Friends, Leaders, our Children, the Elderly and the Indigent.

Darkness, in the form of drugs and violence, is stealing our children's innocence and their lives while we as a people struggle to find answers. Let us Pray for Our Children today.




“Righteousness exhalts a nation, But sin is a reproach to any people”. Proverbs 14:34

Let us join thousands as we lift our loved ones, our nation, and the world to God in prayer.

Father's Love Letter

The cry of a Father's Heart from Genesis to Revelation.

God loves you (John 3:16). This is His beautiful love letter to you. He is always faithful to all His promises and is perfect in His ways. His blessings shower like rain and His mercy flow like flood with unending love and amazing grace on us. 

Isn't it wonderful we don't have an absentee Heavenly Father? Our Heavenly Father is always there to walk with us, to share our burdens, to guide us safely to His kingdom, and to shower us with His abundance of Everlasting Love. 

You can experience His Love, Mercy and Forgiveness by inviting Him into your life to be your personal Lord and Savior. Let's do that right now!

 Dear Lord I am a sinner and I need forgiveness, I believe that Jesus your son shed his precious blood and died for my sins, I am willing to turn from my sinful ways and follow you.

Dear Jesus, I repent and confess my sins and ask you to forgive me. I invite you into my life to be my Lord and Savior. I believe that you answered my prayer and now I am saved. In Jesus name, Amen.
