All right, welcome, welcome, welcome to the Prosper Power Hour.
This is where we are every Wednesday, 8 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.
I want to welcome those of you that are new.
Of course, this is part of the Prosper Leader membership, and this is also part of the new
12-week immersion that is starting tomorrow, the Pressure from Pressure to Partnership.
And so the Prosper Leader membership is included in that.
So this Power Hour, this is our time where we just soak in the Word.
We get a fresh promise that we can just stand on the Word all week long, a fresh promise.
I've got a few scriptures today.
They go together.
I'm super excited what God was showing me.
And so we do a promise.
We do a biblical principle around that, like let's really get the meat of it, walk it out.
We pray, and then I give you a practice that you can work on all week.
This is part of what God was showing me in life and business to heaven and earth, right?
This is just tapping into heaven and all of God's gifts.
So welcome, welcome.
Those of you that are here for the first time, those of you maybe watching the replay for
the first time, love spending Wednesday mornings with you.
So today, you know, I want to talk about not decreasing, not diminishing, not shrinking,
but instead expanding in the face of contraction.
In other words, in seasons that are difficult, in seasons of pressure, how can we avoid contracting,
shrinking, fear, and really walk through it the way God would want us to walk through?
You know, of course, I'm working with and talking to a lot of beautiful faith-based
women, and what I'm seeing is that life is pressing in on them right now, right?
So they're feeling the squeeze.
They're feeling pressure.
They're feeling the squeeze financially, obviously.
Where the economy is and the cost of food and gas and all of that stuff, right?
So they're feeling squeezed financially.
They're feeling squeezed very often in their relationships and in their career.
They're feeling squeezed mentally.
So you know, the whole thing, mentally, spiritually, physically, relationally, they're feeling
the squeeze.
And if we're not careful, this pressure can cause us to contract and to shrink.
And so what ends up happening is, because the brain wants to be safe, and so we'll start
contracting our vision.
We'll start contracting our goals.
What we really believe is possible, our dreams.
We'll start contracting those often.
Our expectations.
We say, well, if I don't expect anything, I won't get disappointed.
And if you ever feel that way, right, we contract, and we shrink our business.
We start playing smaller.
We shrink our joy, our hope.
One of my favorite words I share with you all the time, we shrink our capacity, right?
And so as life is squeezing us, and we're feeling this pressure on all sides, physically,
spiritually, relationally, all these ways, we're feeling the squeeze.
It's like it's pressing in on us.
In fact, let me open up the chat so I can also hear from you guys.
Anybody feeling the squeeze?
Anybody know what I'm talking to?
Am I talking to the right women?
Are you feeling this?
Say me, or say squeeze if you're feeling the squeeze.
Squeeze.
Yeah.
Amanda says, yes, I can relate.
So, um, what I want to share about this is that that squeeze was never meant to diminish
you.
Never, Kim says like an orange, welcome Christine, in every area of life, I love that, okay?
It was never, what if God's intention was that you are to increase in this season?
Now this is so counterintuitive, isn't it?
It's so counterintuitive.
And I'm not saying like deny reality, we're not like, you know, being ostriches, but we're
talking about partnering with God in the middle of this reality.
And so, as I was having my quiet times with the Lord this week, he took me into Jeremiah.
I haven't been there for a minute, honestly.
And I was in between Jeremiah 29 and Jeremiah 33.
And I want to lay the context before we dig into the actual promise is that God was speaking
to a people that were living in captivity.
They had been pulled from their motherland, from Jerusalem, from Judah, and they had been
taken as captives to Babylon.
So they were living in, when you see these beautiful promises we're going to cover, you
have to understand they were spoken originally to a people that were in captivity, not comfort,
not ideal, you know, situations or conditions, not easy times, in captivity.
And yet the instructions we read in these chapters are shocking.
Different translations, you know, I love bouncing between different translations and his instructions
to these people that had been pulled out of their homes and their families and their life
and what was normal and pulled into captivity.
Jeremiah's instructions were multiply, increase, build actually said build houses, plant, flourish,
don't diminish, don't decrease, don't shrink.
And doesn't that kind of change everything when you think about that?
I just kind of went, wow.
I mean, you can see, I highlighted almost the whole chapter and it says, this is what
the Lord of heaven's armies, the God of Israel, I happen to be reading from the NLT.
I just grabbed different Bibles.
This is the NLT.
The God of Israel says to all the captives that are exiled in Babylon from Jerusalem,
build homes and plan to stay, plant gardens and eat the food they produce, marry and have
children, find spouses for them so you can have many grandchildren, multiply, do not
dwindle away and work for peace and prosperity of the city I sent you into.
Pray to the Lord for its welfare will determine your welfare.
So there's a lot more, but it was like, wow, in the middle of captivity, that's the backdrop
for our promises today.
You know, we all, every Wednesday we do some new promises.
I'm going to give you a couple, okay?
The first one comes from Jeremiah 29, five to seven, and actually we're going to keep
on going all the way through, I think verse 14.
So I just read you the beginning of it as the backdrop.
Build houses, live in them, plant gardens, eat the produce, et cetera, et cetera.
Multiply, don't decrease.
Okay.
The promise comes in in verse 11 through 14, and many of you have heard this, but now maybe
in this context, it'll have a different meaning to you.
Take this promise when you're being squeezed.
Take this promise when you're feeling pressure,
when everything seems to be going wrong.
I mean, women have been getting hit.
I had a woman, she must have had five deaths around her
in the last two weeks.
The most recent, her sister.
Pray for Andrea, one of our sisters.
Multiple surgeries, falls, financial hardship.
I mean, we're being squeezed.
And this promise is for such a time as this.
It's Jeremiah 29 11.
And it says, for I know the plans and thoughts
that I have for you, says the Lord.
I know the plans and the thoughts I have for you.
So let's just think about that for a minute.
God has plans for us.
God has thoughts for us.
What are those plans?
Sometimes we just don't know.
What are those thoughts?
It goes on to say, plans for peace and wellbeing
and not for disaster.
To give you a future and a hope.
So he's got plans for us to experience peace.
First on the inside, Jesus said that peace I give you,
peace I leave with you, not as the world gives, right?
So peace is one of the plans God has for us.
And that starts on the inside, wellbeing, right?
Not disaster, even though it feels like there's disaster
all around us, a future and a hope.
Scripture says, hope deferred makes the heart sick.
We have to be very careful that we hold onto the hope
he has for us.
And it goes on to say, the promise continues.
Then you will call on me.
You will come and pray to me.
And I'm reading from the Amplified Translation, by the way.
I'm reading from the Amplified Translation.
Welcome, Linda.
We're reading in Jeremiah 29.
And we're talking about when life squeezes us.
And the chapters in Jeremiah 29 to 33,
when the people were in captivity, this promise comes.
In the middle of being captive, when God is telling them,
don't shrink, don't diminish, build, plant gardens,
build houses, have children, live your life in the midst
of the difficult situations.
And he goes on to say, I know the plans.
I know the thoughts I have for you, plans for peace,
wellbeing, give you a future and a hope.
Goes on to say, then you will call on me
and you will come and pray to me.
And I will hear your voice.
And I will listen to you.
You'll come to me and pray.
I'll hear your voice.
I'll be listening.
And then with deep longing, you will seek me.
You will seek me.
And I chose the amplified translation today to read this
because it really gives you the meaning of every word.
And so it goes like this.
Then with deep longing, you will seek me
and require me as a vital necessity.
And you will find me.
I love that translation.
When you're seeking God, is he plan C or D,
or is he plan A?
When you're seeking God in the middle of contraction,
he's saying, require me as a vital necessity.
You know, we've got vital nutrients.
we have to have. Without them we die, right? And of course we have to have water. God is saying
he's a vital nutrient. Do we require hearing his word? Do we require feeling his presence? Do we
require knowing his mind? Do we require knowing our next step as a vital necessity? When he says
seek me, it's not casual. Oh God please help me. He's saying seek me as a vital necessity and then
you will. You will find me. You will. The whole chapters are filled with if you, I will.
Now if you just jump a couple chapters. So this was chapter 29 that we just read from.
Okay chapter 29 and we started with the beginning five to seven laying the foundation and the
promises was 29 11 to 14. So I encourage you to write that down. Go a couple chapters forward
to Jeremiah 33 3. I love that triple threes, triple, triple perfection, right?
Jeremiah 33 3 in the amplified sets. Call to me and I will answer you and tell you
and even show you great and mighty things which have been confined and hidden.
Jeremiah 33 3. Any of you have different translations you want to read Jeremiah 33 3?
I have the new King, I have the King James version and it says call into me and I will answer thee
and show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not. Do you love that? Yeah. When we call
he's going to show us the things that we don't know. He's going to show us the things that are
outside of our awareness. So here we have in 29 require me as a vital need
and I'm going to answer and I'm going to show you and now we have it repeated again.
Even when you're being squeezed, you're in captivity, financial captivity, emotional
captivity, relational whatever you're in captivity. God is telling us to seek him.
Anybody have a different translation? Jeremiah 33 3.
I have the the new the new version, new international version, right? Yeah, yeah,
yeah, that good. So mine is call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable
things you do not know. Wow. So you want to get into the unsearchable things?
You tap into the one that the creator of heaven and earth. He's he wants to reveal their secrets
that are stored up just for you. Secrets for your life. Remember this open with I know the plans I
have for you. I know the thoughts I have for you. This is a continuation of that same discussion.
Seek me as your vital necessity because I want to show you secrets. I want to show you mysterious
things. Love this. Anybody else have a different translation?
Anyone else?
Love this.
So call to me. I will answer you. I'll even show you great and mighty things.
Things which have been confined and hidden.
So beautiful. You know, Jeremiah 29 11 in the passion translation says for I know the plans I
have for you says Yahweh plans to prosper you and not to harm you plans to give you a hope
and a future filled with love.
with purpose.
How's that for beautiful promises for our Prosper Power Hour
Promises of the Week?
Can you stand on those promises?
Do you want to know the secrets?
Do you want to know the plans he's got for you?
Do you want to know the mysterious things?
There's so many amazing stories
in history of men and women of God
when they went for the secret things.
And what was discovered?
Incredible, incredible.
All right, let's go through some of the principles
and then we'll get into prayer.
I've got like a few principles
I want you to really glean from this.
As we're laying the foundation this week
for the pressure to partnership,
I want you to have this biblical foundation,
these biblical principles to live by and stand on.
So the principle number one is that hard seasons,
which we're in and I think we're gonna go into even more
in a lot of ways,
hard seasons often trigger contraction.
So when pressure rises, people often stop dreaming,
they stop asking, they stop expecting,
they do the opposite of what Jeremiah said,
oh, I better not buy houses, I better not build,
I better not have children, I better not plan,
I better not expect, I better not dream.
And Jeremiah 29 is speaking to this,
he's saying, increase, don't decrease.
I like, my favorite saying is expand
in the face of contraction.
At the time that we stopped creating,
we stopped sowing, we stopped showing up boldly
because what I want you to understand,
we've talked about this physiologically, emotionally,
and in all ways, fear contracts.
Love expands, fear contracts.
Think about what happens, your whole blood,
everything goes to the center, it leaves your extremities,
it leaves the part of your brain,
goes down to the reptilian brain, right?
It like, down to the base, we contract, we squeeze.
Think about when you're afraid,
like you're about to fall, something's about to happen,
what do you do?
You contract, you brace.
This is the kind of thing that we do
when we feel like we're being hit.
And so fear creates this internal shrinking
before we even see the external shrinking.
It comes first, the internal shrinking.
You think about economically, what is a recession?
Everybody stops spending, they contract,
they hold, they save, they get scared.
Now we enter a recession opposite
of everybody circulating, okay?
But we've got to remember that this pressure,
this captivity, any circumstance of life
does not cancel God's covenant.
You have to understand God is a covenant keeping God.
If you don't understand covenant
and the new covenant that we're operating in,
you're not standing on how he created things.
So no circumstances cancel his covenant, it's everlasting.
He will not ignore it or shrink it or not follow it.
So our current circumstances, whatever they may be,
in sickness, in relationships, in finances,
in business, in health,
whatever your current circumstances,
they don't cancel the covenant.
They don't cancel God's word over your life, God's promises.
You must understand that.
Those are weatherproof, healthproof, disasterproof.
And that's why I started the program
from pressure to partnership,
because what I'm seeing is a lot of women
putting on a bold front.
They're functioning externally, right?
They are going through the motions externally.
They're doing the thing, but they're contracted internally.
This is what I see.
And biblically, everything starts on the inside.
God does not work outside to inside.
He works inside to outside.
And when you understand this,
your circumstances won't sway you.
You'll speak to them.
You'll speak to the storm, right?
Because scripture says rivers of living water flow out of your belly.
Scripture says out of the heart flows the issues of life.
Scripture says as within, so without.
So we have to understand.
So if we're trying to build outside, but we're contracted on the inside, it will not work.
It's destined to fail.
So that's why I started this program.
So that's number one.
Number two principle from this, God told them to build in captivity.
This is profound.
He did not say, wait until conditions improve.
You've got so many people that are, I'm just waiting for whatever to change the economy,
the president, my spouse, my job, my finance.
I'm just waiting for something externally to change and then love that Christine build
to show your faith.
Love that.
So God told them to build in captivity.
He did not say wait until conditions improve.
I heard the other day, everything lives where the river flows.
Love that.
So God did not tell him, wait until conditions improve.
He said, build now, plant now, multiply now, increase now, why?
Because this is getting clear on who or what is our source.
Our source is not the economy.
Our source is not the algorithms.
Our source is not our clients.
Our source is not AI.
Our source is not social media.
Our source is not perfect conditions.
Our source is not the government.
We have one source.
Our source is God.
We have one source.
Our source is God.
There's many resources.
Do you hear the word re?
It's not the original source.
Re means do it again, repurpose.
There's one source, many resources.
Jesus could, I mean, they could pull water from a rock, a coin from a fish,
manna from heaven.
There's many resources.
God can provide to you a dozen ways.
The sparrows can come feed you for Pete's sake.
OK?
There's many.
There's no limit to the resources that God can bring to you, resources.
As long as you don't make the resources your source, you don't make your job
your source, your boss, your source, your husband, your source, your pension,
your source, the government, your source, the economy, your source.
I know in my heart that God is our source.
Having been failed by so many in my life since childhood,
I have felt I can't count on anyone.
Yeah.
What happens is we come into the world differently.
We come in the world to bless, because we're not
looking to receive from anyone.
Because we're spending our time like we open with.
We're going to God as our vital necessity for everything.
So we're in a position to circulate what he's already placed in us.
Scripture says, I'm the temple of the Holy Spirit.
I have the mind of Christ.
Christ in me, the hope of glory.
In other words, infinite love and wisdom, infinite God, the creator
of the universe, lives in me.
When we can grasp that, we stop trying to grasp outside
to the lesser things, because we understand that.
So when we partner with God, if we see God as our source,
then wisdom flows, ideas flow, relationships flow, solutions flow.
We actually become part of the solution.
Number three, increase begins internally first.
Increase begins internally first.
Before the external increase, there's internal expansion.
This is why one of my words
and something you hear me say a lot,
we keep praying for things.
God, please bless me with this
or help me with this or do this.
I believe God is calling us to pray
that he'll increase our capacity.
Our capacity to see, to love, our capacity to receive.
And then once we receive, our capacity to hold,
our capacity to steward and multiply.
Capacity.
If we have, I often, God gave me a visual once
about capacity.
Let's suppose there's this waterfall of God's abundance.
You ever been to a beautiful waterfall?
There's just some amazing waterfalls I go hiking to.
They're just like incredible waterfalls.
And imagine if my capacity is a thimble
and I go to the waterfall and I hold up my thimble.
Can't get more because that's my capacity.
Maybe it's a bucket, but I can't get more.
There's a waterfall, but my capacity is a bucket.
Maybe there's a water truck.
I can fill up gallons and gallons.
Do you get the picture?
We can only hold and steward what we have capacity.
So our real job is increasing our capacity.
So before the external, there's internal.
That starts with faith and certainty,
with expectation, which is also faith and certainty,
with vision, without vision, the people perish.
And that's why scripture repeatedly emphasizes asking,
not begging from fear,
but asking from relationship and trust.
So I wanna give you a couple backup scriptures
when you're asking, because too many people are begging God.
And so their prayers are actually defeating
or they keep praying the same thing, same thing,
not believing that the prayer was answered.
They're not standing on faith.
So Jesus in Matthew 7, 7 says,
ask and keep on asking and it'll be given to you.
Seek and keep on seeking, knock, keep on knocking,
the door will be opened.
Mark 11, 24 is key.
Whatever you ask for in prayer,
believe with confident trust you have received it.
So once you pray, his word does not return void.
You're praying according to his will.
You're praying scripture.
Now my job is to stand that it's done.
I have the healing.
I have the resources.
I have what I've received, what I've asked.
So it says, whatever you ask in prayer,
whatever's a big word, whatever you ask,
believe with confident trust you have received it
and it will be given.
It will be given.
So the key phrase is confident trust,
not striving, not panic, not obsession, not certainty.
And let me just add is for another lesson,
watch your words, stand guard at your mouth, zip your lips.
Don't pray and ask God for something
and then go speak the opposite
that makes it your prayer null and void.
Don't say God bless me with finances
and go tell everyone how broke you are.
Don't ask God for healing
and then go tell everyone your health saga.
Do you see?
I am the healed of the Lord.
I am the blessed of the Lord.
And so it's so important.
Lastly, James 1, six says, whatever we ask,
this was in the context of asking for wisdom,
but the principle is the same, whatever.
We must ask in faith without doubting,
because it talks about doubting splits our mind,
double-minded, a double-minded man
cannot expect to receive anything.
Lastly, number four, God reveals hidden things
to those who stay connected.
Jeremiah 33 says, God reveals hidden things,
strategies, wisdom, direction, creative solutions,
opportunities, relationships, provision,
pathways in uncertain times.
So those who stay connected to God
often are the ones carrying the answer,
not because they're smarter, because they're listening.
I have a couple ways.
I'm gonna be teaching this on Thursday.
We're gonna go deeper from pressure to partnership,
immersion, those of you Prosper Leader members,
this is included for you.
Those who purchased the program,
everything in the Prosper Leader membership is yours.
I'm giving you full access.
And I'm gonna be teaching about this,
ways that we in uncertain times hear from God
to make sure.
I'm gonna be teaching that on Thursday,
Thursday morning at eight, tomorrow morning at eight.
Okay, let's spend some time in prayer.
And then we'll wrap this up.
Has that been helpful?
I would love your feedback.
What's the one thing that just jumped out at you?
You can speak it or pop it in the chat.
This will solidify it for you
and it'll bless everybody else.
What's the one thing that just jumped out at you about this
that's relevant for your life right here, right now?
I think for me,
especially when you talk about using our words,
I'm really becoming more aware of that.
And he's given me some certain scriptures
to speak over my mouth.
And I really liked the one where he says,
let your words be sweet as honeycomb.
And I'm like, oh, okay.
So, and I know there's other ones,
but when you were saying about the double-mindedness
and we're talking out of one side of our mouth
and then we're praising the Lord over here, right?
That's how I look at it, especially for healing.
But also the secrets that he shares with his heart,
the way he wants to build with us.
Sometimes we have to be quiet.
We're not supposed to go out there
and blab everything at that moment.
And so that really struck me.
It was like, you have your healing over here
and then you have your building over here.
And it just, that really got me.
Thank you.
Yes, that's so, so important.
Anyone else?
What jumped out?
Mine was the lesson on,
when you talked about contraction,
what happens in contra...
And I was in a season of contraction.
I know I was.
When you said that, I never thought about it like that,
but I was in a season of contraction.
And yeah, and fear shows itself in many different ways.
And you may not even call it fear.
Shows its way, it shows itself in many different ways.
And so for me, that putting a word to what it was,
that was very helpful.
So thank you for that.
Yeah, we spiritualize fear.
We say we're being responsible.
We say we're being cautious or wise.
We say we are waiting on more.
We spiritualize not doing anything
and contracting very, very well.
Yeah.
Yeah, I love that.
Yeah.
Good, good.
You guys, let's see, the chat is blowing up.
Let's just see.
God is a covenant-keeping God.
I'll be examining what covenants and agreements
I've come into that more than likely don't serve me.
Very good.
That will be a topic we'll be hitting in future weeks.
I love that.
Yeah, it's okay if you're not on camera.
Thanks for participating.
Glad you're here, Christine.
A continued confidence and trust in His promises.
Do not, yeah, do not dwindle.
That jumped out at me.
Don't shrink, don't diminish.
This is to a people that are in captivity
that He's going, don't shrink, don't diminish.
Okay, let's pray
because I don't want to run out of time for praying.
So whatever hits you, we can pray praise and gratitude.
We can put.
our requests, we can pray for each other. Let's take a couple minutes to pray to just seal this
in prayer. Anybody go first and then I'll wrap us up.
I just want to say to God that a lot of times I would like to believe that I'm grateful,
but I don't put gratitude first. So I want to say to all of you and to God, thank you.
I'm grateful to be here and to be able to find a way to be here and for the teaching and the
sharing that has gone on today. I was especially touched by what Brenda said about sometimes
things are counterintuitive because we have to remember, God, your ways are not our ways.
Our mind can't even understand how your mind works.
Most gracious Father, we thank you today. We thank you for the word that has gone forth.
We thank you for revelation knowledge. We thank you, Lord, Father God, for sometimes it's just
one word. We thank you for that can change a heart, change our direction, change our mind,
turn on, give us a revelation, Lord, Father God. So we thank you for that one word,
that one scripture, Lord, Father God. And we thank you, Lord, Father God, for the scriptures,
Lord, Father God, that you lay on our hearts. Lord, Father God, reminding us that our words
are sweet as honey. You are such a faithful God that you show us when we're quiet, you show us
things that we need to learn, and you send us resources. You send us resources in one of those
forms, in the forms of people, in the forms of teaching, in the forms of fellowship, in the
forms of gathering, in the forms of hearing how your word impacts another. So we thank you for
that, Lord, this morning. We thank you, Lord, Father God. And Lord, Father, I pray for Brenda
as she pours out. I ask you to refill her, Lord, Father God, to the full, overflowing,
Lord, Father God. Let her never be depleted from any time that she shares, she gives, she teaches,
Lord, Father God. Renew her daily, Lord, Father God. Fill her cup daily, Lord, Father God. I
thank you, Lord, Father God, for her diligence and her obedience. And Lord, we just thank you for
the blessings and the praise reports, the selling of a house, the healing of a mouth,
the, the, the, the, your hand catching, your unseen hand catching a fall, Lord, Father,
that's so many things that we can shout and be thankful for. So we thank you for that today,
Lord, Father God. And we just lift up, I lift up my son, and I just ask you, Lord, Father God,
that, no, I confirm, Lord, Father God, that you have the perfect role and job for him,
Lord, Father God. And I just pray for his strength, his perseverance, his perseverance,
and his resilience as it comes to pass, Lord, Father God. I thank you for the shedding of
things, Lord, Father God, and the renewing of things in his life. And Lord, we just continue
to that prayer blessing on each and every woman, Lord, Father God. And as my sister Amanda begins
to pack her bags and pack her stuff, Lord, Father God, let it be done with ease and flow,
ease and flow, Lord, Father God, as she moves to her next chapter. I thank you, Lord.
Dear Heavenly Father, we just come before you today, and we just thank you, Lord, for this
time, this precious time that we have, Lord, with your daughters. And we just ask you, Lord, to
keep on pouring into us more and more every day, Lord, and learning more about you,
and focusing on, God, that you are our main source. It doesn't matter our circumstances
that's going on in this world, and all the fear that is getting us afraid of things, Lord, and
just to know, God, that nothing is impossible with you, Lord, and that you are a helper,
you are a provider, God. And we just ask you, Lord, for increase in your capacity, God. Just
give us more of your vision, Lord, as we are building these businesses, and how you want us
to show up, and how you want us to serve your people, Lord. And we just thank you, God, for
these praises that you are doing, God. You are so good. You are so good, and you are so faithful.
And we just ask you, God, to continue to all the healing.
um, with Kim's mouth and, um, just thank you, Lord, that, um,
that it is healed and, um, just continue to heal it, Lord.
And we just, um, thank you, God, for, um, ask for the healing of, um,
of Colleen and how she fell Lord.
And we just praise you, Lord, that she's okay.
And that she's here and continue to heal in her body.
And we just ask you to be with Natalie son, God, and no Lord that you already
have found the perfect job for him.
God, where he belongs, who he's supposed to be surrounded by Lord.
And we just thank you in advance, God, um, for placing him in the right place.
And, um, we just ask you Lord to just uplift the rest of this day and the
rest of this week and, um, be with each and every one of us in Jesus name.
Amen.
Thank you, father.
Thank you.
Your mercies are new every day, morning by morning.
Thank you.
You are a covenant keeping God you're faithful.
Thank you for all the ways that you've been working in our lives and all
the ways you will continue to work.
Lord, may we, as we learn today, seek you as Jesus said, seek first the
kingdom and his righteousness.
And all these things will be added.
May we seek you as our vital necessity first and foremost, may we understand
you and you alone are our source.
Everything else is a resource today, Lord, as Romans declares, we offer
ourselves a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable.

mysteries, live through us, speak through us, love through us, heal
through us, Lord, may fear have no place in our life, perfect love cast
out all fear, today may we walk in your perfect love, Lord, I pray you

Lord, prosper their health, prosper their finances, prosper their
relationships, prosper their serving, Lord, may their lives be a bright
light that shines, that from their works that you're doing through them
