Bait of Satan thoughts....and Sunday Dec. 14 fellowship

I’d like for all of the singles to meet in the foyer of Billtown campus at 4:45pm on Sunday Dec. 14 and we will all walk in together as the SINGLES MINISTRY TEAM. We are going to make it really funny by carrying signs with our phone numbers on it…available for fellowship!!!!! (might as well have some fun with it) It is our church-wide christmas celebration with all ministries being introduced. Let’s all get together afterwards and go out for a light dinner, maybe at McAlisters. JOIN US FOR SOME FUN AND FELLOWSHIP THAT NIGHT.


Who Will Avenge ME?

Vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord. Romans 12:19

Read pages 38-43 Bait of Satan
Page 196-197 devotion

Abishai was one of David’s friends. He tried to convince David that he had many good reasons to kill Saul while he had the chance. He felt that God had given him this opportunity. He said: “God has delivered your enemy into your hand this day. Now therefore, please, let me strike him at once with the spear right to the earth; and I will not have to strike him a second time!”
However, David’s response to Abishai in I Samuel 26:9-11 was filled with God’s grace.

Consider this:
ANY SOWING OF DISCORD OR SEPARATION AMONG BRETHREN IS AN ABOMINATION TO GOD! Do you agree?
John Bevere says: “Churches split, families divide, marriages shatter, and love dies, crushed by an onslaught of words launched in hurt and frustration. Friends, family and leaders offend us using words sharpened by bitterness and anger that aim a deadly blow.EVEN THOUGH THE INFORMATION MAY BE FACTUAL AND ACCURATE, OFTEN OUR MOTIVES ARE IMPURE. ANY SOWING OF DISCORD OR SEPARATION AMONG BRETHREN IS AN ABOMINATION TO GOD (Prov. 6:16-19).

Ask God to teach you to humble yourself before those who offend you and to ask for forgiveness when you have been the offender.

I am praying that God will show us how to live a life free from the burden and consequences of holding onto offenses. During the upcoming season of prayer and fasting in January, let us really agree in prayer about this.

Your friend in Christ,
Becky
