As we come to the last month on the American
Calendar of the year 2011, we reflect back on the past 11 months, and
prepare for the months ahead.
There have been many challenges and battles,
but God has given us the victory. It reminds me of what David said in Psalm
34:19, "Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but God Delivers Them Out Of Them All."
We thank God that He is our God and our Deliverer.
Jesus said in John 16:33b, "In the world
you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the
world." That word "world" in Greek is the word
"kosmos" meaning world, age and speaking of this earthly, natural
realm, its systems
and way of doing things.
Jesus was giving us a word of encouragement
before we even needed it. Why? He knew how this world's system operated. He
knew we would need the encouragement. He knew the world's system was unstable
and therefore there would always be challenges and troubles in this world.
However; He encouraged us by saying, "we could have peace, we could be of
good cheer and we could overcome even in this world as long
as we operated IN
HIM."
So, during this last month of 2011, we are
going to be more Determined and Diligent, Determined means to be resolved,
decided, settled and unwavering. Diligent means to be constant in efforts to
accomplish something or ones tasks and duties; to be attentive and persistent
in doing something, ones tasks or duties.
Therefore, as we close out 2011 and enter
2012, We, at The Master's Ministry of Freedom Empowerment Center, (The Embassy
Headquarters for The Master's Operations), will be more Determined,
Decided, Resolved, Settled and Unwavering; We will be more Diligent, constant
in our efforts to "be about The Father's Business and The Master's
Work." We will be attentive to what God has called us to do. We will
follow the Holy Spirit and be persistent in what He tells and leads
us to do and we will accomplish His work.
As we enter into 2012, we will be
even more Determined and Diligent to seek Him, learn more of who we are IN
HIM and operate as He has given us access and ability to operate IN and THROUGH
Him.
In Hebrews 11:6, He promises us, "But
without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that come to God must
believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that Diligently seek
Him."
Therefore, I declare, in Jesus name
that Rewards are coming in 2012. So, let's go after the
souls. Let's touch peoples lives with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and tell
them of His love for them. Let's finish 2011 Strong, Determined and
Diligent, "being about our Father's Business and The Master's Work."
