• What Paul said About Effective Praying

I Nehemiah 1:4 A leader's prayer accomplishes four things:

1. Prayer internalizes the burden, deepening our ownership of a need.

2. Prayer insists that we quiet our hearts and wait, slowing us down to receive from God.

3. Prayer infuses the vision, enabling us to see what God wants us to do.

4. Prayer initiates the vision's fulfillment, acting as a catalyst for us to act.

SOMETHING POWERFUL HAPPENS WHEN A LEADER PRAYS AND STANDS IN THE GAP FOR HIS PEOPLE.

BIBLES FOR JEWS

Please read my Aunt Genie's testimony. She is 94 years old and still leading people to Jesus Christ and continues her God-given assignment on earth to distribute Bibles for Jews. She's my Dad's youngest sister. Enjoy and be blessed! By the way, when I was a very young boy she gave me my first Bible and wrote in it the verse; John 3:16, I read it, how about you?

The day before my fourteenth birthday,I stood at the bedside of my dying mother. Unable to communicate for several days, suddenly her eyes opened and she whispered..."I see the most beautiful light, and I hear the most wonderful music." I learned later that a distant relative had led her to the lord. I believe she had a glimpse of Heaven. Twenty years later when I was 34 years old, which is nowhopeless situation, the Lord drew me, a Gentile, to His Word. I couldn't put the book down. I received Christ, the Messiah of Israel, as my Savior. Through the years, the Bible, His Word, has been my guide, the joy and rejoicing of my heart. "It is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul" (Leviticus 17:11) Israel today is without the blood sacrifice.Trusting in tradition and the teaching of the Talmud, they are lost. The unbelieving Gentile is in the same condition. "Strangers from the Covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the World" (Ephesians 2:12) "It is finished" ( John 19:30) With great finality, these words came from the parched, bleeding lips if the dying Savior. The slaying of the lambs on the altars of Israel, under the Old Covenant, came to an end. "Behold I will make a New Covenant with the House of Israel, and with the House of Judah" (Jeremiah 31:31) There on Calvarys Cross, God's beloved Son (Psalm 2) offered himself the atonement for sin. The Messiah of Israel (Psalm 22 Isaiah 53) shed his blood. Jesus came the first time rejected, despised, crucified as Gods promised lamb. (Genesis 22:8). He is coming again "Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him; and they also which pierced him" (Zechariah 12:10) (Revalation 1:7) "I am Alpha and Omega,the beginning and the ending saith the Lord which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty" (Revalation 1:8) Dear friend, do you not recognize whom it was that was pierced in Zechariah 12:10? Will you believe and receive Him, your Messiah?

LETTING GO OF NICE THINGS THAT DON'T MATTER

THIS IS A MESSAGE THAT HAS BEEN ON MY HEART TO SHARE WITH THE BODY OF CHRIST. ITS CONTENT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE, IF YOU APPLY IT!

ARE YOU FOCUSED?

LETTING GO OF NICE THINGS THAT DON'T MATTER

Philippians 3:5-9

FOCUSED - Fixed On Christ's Unlimited Supply Each Day

ARE YOU FOCUSED?

Paul's absolute focus gave him an absolute willingness to let go of nice things that didn't matter. Note some items that he discarded:

1. His heritage: a Hebrew of the Hebrews (v. 5)
2. His pure lineage: from the tribe of Benjamin (v. 5)
3. His former legalism: a strict Pharisee (v. 5)
4. His past zeal: a persecutor of the church (v. 6)
5. His self-righteousness: a blameless life (v. 6)

Paul so narrowed his focus that he discarded not only the things he once counted as gain, but he counted as garbage for the sake of obtaining Christ! He would lose it all if that allowed him to gain intimacy with Christ (Phil 3:8, 9).

Leaders who change the world have this kind of sharp focus. Think about the leaders of the Bible and the focus they had to bring about revolutionary change:

1. ABRAHAM: left his homeland, wealth, and friends for a new land because he focused on the unseen kingdom. Mary and I experienced the leaving of the homeland to venture out for Christ.
2. JOSEPH: had strength to endure hardship and prisons because his dream focused on the greatness of God.
3. MOSES: could turn his back on Egypt because he focused on God's plan.
4. STEPHEN: preached an unpopular message and died a martyr because of his focus.
5. PAUL: gave everything up and said, "This one thing I do."
6. JESUS: told Martha, "Only one thing is necessary."

What does it take to gain the focus required to become a truly effective leader? The keys are priorities and concentration. A leader who knows his priorities but lacks concentration knows what to do, but never gets it done. A leader with concentration but no priorities has excellence without progress. But when leaders harness both, they gain the potential to achieve great things.

People base their decisions on a variety of things:

1. The ULTIMATE: first things first.
2. The URGENT: loud things first.
3. The UNPLEASANT: hard things first.
4. The UNFINISHED: last things first.
5. The UNFULFILLING: dull things first.

Paul exemplifies a leader who focused on the ultimate every day. HOW ABOUT YOU? To get back on track with focus, work on these items:

1. WORK ON YOURSELF. You are your greatest asset or worst liability.
2. WORK ON YOUR PRIORITIES. Fight for the important ones.
3. WORK IN YOUR STRENGTHS. You can reach your potential if you do.
4. WORK WITH YOUR COLLEAGUES. You can't be effective alone.

If you do these things, surely we will all become UNITED IN HIS PURPOSE!

TESTIMONY OF THE HEALING SCRIPTURE CARD

My name is Cynthia, I'm an inmate at Gatesville Prison. I recently under went surgery. I had a tumor which was a form of cancer under my left breast and as always the enemy try's to bring fear on you but I know what II Timothy 1:7 says about resisting the spirit of fear and having power, love and a sound mind.
So, after under going a first surgery I was taken to recovery on the sixth floor inmate side. It was later on when I finally was coming around from all the medication that I noticed I was sharing a room with two other inmates who looked to be in severe pain. So, I saw the nurses come in and give them pain medication. At that time, I too began to have pain. I was wearing a draining bag. I was offered pain medication but I refused it at that time. I asked the lady next to me for a Bible. She shared the one she had with me and she told me that I could ask for a chaplain. So, I did and the next morning I met Pastor Larson who not only prayed for me on my sick bed but encouraged me and gave me some wonderful, powerful healing scriptures from your ministry to stand on. I applied those scriptures to my life every day everytime I had pain or when the enemy told me I was gonna have to have chemotherapy. I cast every thought down with every scripture on that card and I found myself at peace. Then the same doctor that did the first surgery came to me the following week only to tell me I have to undergo another surgery cause some of the tumor was still there. I didn't get upset, I just increased my reading of the healing scriptures, believing God at His every word. Then I started re-reading the BIBLICAL HEALING TESTIMONIES and putting my name and the sickness in the place where it was on the card. So, I was ready for the seconded surgery, which took place ten days after the first. To the doctor's surprise when they performed the second surgery EVERYTHING WAS GONE...PRAISE GOD...PRAISE GOD...PRAISE GOD!
I am now back at my unit here in Gatesville waiting to come back for my sixth week check up...which I know all will be well. I was given extra healing scripture cards from Pastor Larson upon my release from the hospital and I have distributed them out to some of the women here and they too liked them. Praise you and your ministry in the name of Jesus. I am a living witness that the WORD WORKS! God bless! Thank you, Thank you for the healing scriptures. Love, a healed sister in Christ.

WORLD MINISTRY FELLOWSHIP

WORLD MINISTRY FELLOWSHIP

Since its conception in 1963, World Ministry Fellowship has grown from humble beginnings into a world-wide outreach and fellowship of ministers. There is a wealth of wisdom as well as many years of ministerial success in the men and women that make up the membership of WMF.
World Ministry Fellowship has been a stable organization for over forty years. WMF functions under the oversight of a 12 member Executive Board, a 21 member Advisory Board, and a 12 member Credentialing Committee, all of whom are mature Christian leaders with proven ministries.
WMF was founded for the purpose of fellowship among ministers without the limitations of denominations.

Ministers from all over the world come together to be refreshed, filled, and energized so that they may more effectively fulfill their call. It is during these times, that the Holy Spirit supernaturally links ministers and ministries together to draw from each other. These men and women lock arm in arm to help reap this last harvest of souls and make disciples of those who are saved.

THE DAY I ACCEPTED JESUS CHRIST

For the first thirty-three years of my life I lived in sin being separated from God. My parents were of the Lutheran religion, so, as a child that was the direction I had to take. Nevertheless, church was meaningless because my heart wasn't in it. The world appeared to be more attractive and entertaining. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life had control over my life. The enemy (the devil) kept me away from truly knowing anything about God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. It is called deception. So many people today are in darkness. They want out but don't know the way. Therefore, I want you to know the way...it is Jesus Christ...He is also the Truth and the Life. John 14:6.

My younger brother developed heart problems at the age of thirty. We used to drink lots of alcohol and smoked several packs of cigarettes everyday. No doubt, with extreme application. Finally, he had enough of this torture to his body. He was seeking a better way. He found it through my Born Again Christian sister. She told him that he needs to surrender his life to Jesus Christ or his life could end at an early age. He took heed to the call and met with a local pastor that lead him to the Lord.

After he got Born Again, he shared this experience with me. I was amazed at how "everything" about him had changed. No more drinking of alcohol, smoking cigarettes, cursing, etc. God had definitely made a difference in his life. Guess what? I wanted the same thing to happen to me because I was somewhat tired of my own life. So, one day I made a very important phone call to my older sister and told her I want the same thing my brother received. She said, "are you sure?" She was after a strong commitment from me. I gave it. So, we made arrangements to come together and make it happen. That day was OCTOBER 10, 1982. That was my special day for accepting Jesus Christ.

THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE PRAYING FOR FAMILY MEMBERS TO COME TO CHRIST. THERE IS HOPE. MY OLDER SISTER PRAYED FOR HER whole family FOR SEVEN YEARS...TODAY...WE ARE ALL SAVED AND SERVING THE LORD.

YOU TOO CAN COME TO CHRIST...just follow these very important steps to peace with God...on my website www.unitedinhispurpose.org click on SALVATION PAGE. Welcome to the Family of God!

PROFILE OF APOSTLE PAUL - Acts 26:1-23

PAUL - THE MOST INFLUENTIAL LEADER OF THE EARLY CHURCH
Acts 26:1-23

From the very beginning, the apostle Paul's life in Christ greatly influenced everyone around him.

This persecutor-turned-apostle stood before kings, governors, and the religious power structures of the day. His enemies accused him, imprisoned him, beat him, and threatened him with death. He traveled untold thousands of miles and even survived a shipwreck. Through all of this, Paul never failed to vigorously and courageously defend and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Paul didn't become an influential leader because of his eloquence or because he possessed some special talent withheld from everyone else. Paul gained influence because, regardless of his circumstances--whether he sat in shackles during another interrogation, whether he lay in a cold prison cell, or whether he roamed free to do his work--he STAYED COMMITTED to one thing: PREACHING THE NAME OF JESUS.

Without question, Paul became the most influential leader of the early church. We continue to feel his influence to this day.

By the world's standards--then and today--Paul must have appeared a fanatic. But all he did was OBEY GOD'S CALL to influence the world around him. Wise leaders today would do well to follow PAUL'S EXAMPLE by purposefully taking the Word of God both to the body of Christ and to the unbelieving world. How do you compare to what Paul has done? Really, you don't need to compare, you just need to be yourself and do what the Lord has assigned you to do. For sure, if you do this we will all become UNITED IN HIS PURPOSE.

THE TOP TEN LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES OF JESUS - Mark 8:34-38

The Gospels demonstrate beyond all doubt that Jesus really is the Ultimate leader. No one has influenced people more than He. Although He never wrote a book or taught in a seminary, His movement continues to grow over 2000 years after He departed the earth. Consider 10 leadership principles we see in His life, as recorded in the 4 Gospels:

1. Leadership is servanthood (Matt. 20:25; Mark 8:35).
2. Let your purpose prioritize your life (Matt. 6:33; Luke 19:10; John 17:4).
3. Live the life before you lead others (Luke 7:22, 23; John 14:11).
4. Impact comes from relationship, not positions (Luke 9:6; John 4:5-30).
5. Leaders must replenish themselves (Mark 1:35-38; 6:31).
6. Great leaders call for great commitment (Matt. 10:17; Mark 8:34-38).
7. Show security when handling tough issues (Mark 11:27-33; Luke 20:19-26).
8. Credibility comes by meeting needs and solving problems (Luke 5:12-15; 8:38, 39).
9. Leaders must choose and develop their key people (Mark 3:14; Luke 10:1)
10. There is no success without a successor (Matt. 28:20; Acts 1:8).

I trust that you will take to heart these valuable principles. With true application, you can become a great leader in the Body of Christ. Jesus said in John 14:6 "I Am The Way, The Truth and The Life." No one comes to the Father except through Me. We should follow His LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES!

THE VALUE OF VISION - II Samuel 5:1-12

David's vision energized the Hebrew nation far beyond anything Saul had ever imagined. Notice what the vision of David did for the Israelite nation:

1. Vision unites (vv 1-3).
For the first time in years, "all the tribes" and "all the elders" came together.

2. Vision provides a center for leadership (vv 4, 5).
David began his reign from Hebron, but desired to unite a divided land and lead from Jerusalem.

3. Vision dominates inner conversation (vv. 6-8).
All of us indulge in "inner conversation." David's vision focused his men as they neared Jerusalem.

4. Vision inspires greatness (vv. 9, 10).
David's dream for Jerusalem helped him and his people realize a great goal together.

5. Vision attracts others to the leader (vv. 11, 12)
Once David had taken Jerusalem, others began to join the cause.

WHEN GOD CHOOSES A LEADER - Exodus 2:11--4:20)

MOSES provides a wonderful case study on how God calls a leader out of a crowd to perform an assignment.
Let's take a look at eight areas on how He does this... --> -->
1. God gives the leader an emotional investment in the work.
Moses "bought into" the idea of freeing the Hebrews from bondage even before God called him to the task.
2. God affirms the leader through others.
When Moses told Jethro about his encounter at the burning bush, his father-in-law affirmed him.
3. God gives the leader mentors.
Moses asked for and received help from Jethro. Aaron, and others.
4. God builds on the leader's strengths, experiences, and background.
God used everything in Moses' background to help him fulfill his calling: the fine education he received in Egypt; his knowledge of Pharaoh; his understanding of Egypt; and his time in the wilderness.
5. God often refines the leader's character in obscurity.
Moses received a 40-year "seminary education" in the desert.
6. God instills in the leader the value of hard work.
Moses may not have worked much in the Egyptian palace, but he learned its worth in the desert!
7. God sustains that leader with a powerful vision.
Moses caught the vision of the Promised Land long before the Hebrew slaves did.
8. God brings others alongside the leader to compensate for their weaknesses.
Moses enjoyed the help of Aaron as spokesman, Joshua as general, and Hur as battle supporter
