Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
The sculpture captured in this photograph bring alive what happened during Jesus' life on earth. This is common in the Holy land and you will find buried civilization depicting the rich history of nations as you tour the length and breath of this country.
Today's 40 day fast & pray booklet requires us to pray for the church leadership throughout the land of Malaysia. Yesterday's prayer meeting brought to bear the need to pray for a Christian witness in the small towns and villages of our country. Many of them has less than 20 believers!
A large majority of believers live in the interior parts of Sabah and Sarawak, which makes up (by some estimates) more than three quarters of the total population of Christians in this country. The sad fact of the matter is, these are the poorest of the poor communities of the nation. They don't have a voice so we in West Malaysia also don't have a voice because we are much smaller in size!
During this season, many teams are driving to these smaller towns to pray for God's presence to penetrate the atmosphere over these communities. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus spoken over any atmosphere, in faith by a believer, bring God's presence to bear and for His will to be done. We will not know all of the needs of each church leader in each locality but God does and in His time He will answer the prayer of a righteous man which is powerful and effective.
John 14:13-14 And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it. Freeda Bowers, the author of Give Me 40 days, penned this explanation as follows, "In Jesus' name, prayers are answered; people saved, healed and delivered. Ultimately, every knee will bow to the One who bears that glorious name. All power in Heaven and Earth is embodied in the holy and precious name of Jesus".
So if you say with me aloud.....Jesus, Jesus, Jesus you can be sure He will immediately respond. Do you feel His presence?
