Our Redeemer Lives

Take Heart

But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you. 

When He comes, He will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: about sin, because people do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned. John 16:7-11

Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. John 16:23b,24b

Land of Freedom

Thank you, Father, for this precious land you’ve given us, where we are free to worship you, free to carry and read our Bibles, free to tell others about the sacrifice Jesus made for us and them. And where, because of you, we are free to choose to do the right thing, to love and serve others, to know your joy and your peace.  May we never take any of it, or you, for granted.  May our passion for you and for living rightly in you grow every day, and may we take every opportunity you give us to tell others about the depth of your love, grace, and mercy. May you bring revival to this land, Father. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.
