All have made mistakes and each of us have done wrong at some point in our lives. We can each thank GOD for the relationship we have through our prayer lives as Prayer Champions! Hebrews 4:16 invites us to therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. We can come boldly, not because we deserve it, but because GOD is so good, so gracious, and GOD lovingly forgives us. We must ask, sincerely repent, no matter what we have done, and don’t do it again. Scripture tells us at 2 Chronicles 7:14, if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Adore The LORD Online Christian Faith Community is a fellowship of Christian believers who love The LORD Our GOD with all of our heart, soul, and mind, (Matthew 22:37, NKJV).  We thank GOD for this special time of worship on this first Sunday in June. It is Pentecost Sunday and it is also the Sunday Service that we will ‘Celebrate Fathers and those who serve as Father Figures’.

Bro. John M. Williams will share words of wisdom and inspiration to fathers from his experience as a father and father-in-law of five each as well as grandfather to fourteen. Our mission is to worship The LORD Our GOD in Spirit and in Truth, broadcasting over the airwaves with those who are homebound or without church homes,(John 4:23, NKJV). We express our adoration of The LORD in worship through our passionate prayers, perpetual praise, and prophetic preaching of the Word of GOD, (1 Thessalonians 5:17, Psalm 34:1, 2 Timothy 4:2).

In obedience to The Great Commission we send forth our broadcast to make disciples of all nations and in remembrance of our LORD’S passion we join together in Holy Communion, (Matthew 28:19, Luke 22:19).

Pentecost is Koine Greek for 50th - It was originally the Jewish Festival of Weeks (Exodus 23:14-17), which began when the first fruits of the harvest were presented to GOD, 50 days after Passover (Dictionary of Theological Terms). The Day of Pentecost, 50 days after the resurrection of Christ, the Holy Spirit came to the Church. It was an important event in for the world because The Holy Spirit is the 3rd person of the Trinity who is fully and holy GOD, not an impersonal force, or lesser being! Same divine status with GOD the Father and GOD the Son – The HOLY SPIRIT is Co Eternal!  When JESUS walked with the disciples HE taught them about The HOLY SPIRIT in John 14:16-17, AMP

 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever—

Prayer Champions, GOD is now moving to make things right for you! GOD is working behind the scenes to open doors in your behalf and to put many wonderful things in place for you! This does not mean that there is nothing left for you to do. Your part is to remain faithful in your prayer life. As you pray, start by acknowledging that GOD is your Heavenly Parent who hears you. Make sure that there is no doubt or fear blocking your requests. Lift your faith up to GOD and begin to thank GOD for the awesome power released in your behalf. JESUS said if you ask the FATHER anything in MY name, it will be given to you! Believe that you receive the things prayed for by releasing your most holy faith. “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will[b] ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.” John 15:7 NKJV

Devotion from my book Get Out of the Dry Places: The Battle Belongs to The LORD! But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31, KJV But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired. AMPLIFIED Classic Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord! Psalm 27:14, NKJV

As we continue to celebrate Mothers and Motherhood we pray today for Open Doors. Doors are used to grant or deny access. Open doors represent opportunities and new direction. When GOD opens a door for you, GOD grants you access to abundance, blessings, favor, healing, lavish love, unspeakable joy, and perfect peace. Through the open door is healing for your body and soul. You now have access to limitless possibilities! “I know your [record of] works and what you are doing. See! I have set before you a door wide open which no one is able to shut; I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept My Word and guarded My message and have not renounced or denied My name.” Revelation 3:8, AMPC

Today we Celebrate Mothers! We are a fellowship of Christian believers who love The LORD Our GOD with all of our heart, soul, and mind.

I believe that marvelous modern day miracles happen all around us every day!  Somehow and someway we avoid catastrophic incidents, just miss calamity and survive accidents that defy explanation.  We must open our spiritual eyes and appreciate GOD’S grace, mercy and protection that just in the nick of time prevent disaster and tragedy.  When we notice these miracles we must give all of the glory to GOD in thanksgiving.  We don’t call it luck or serendipity, instead we recognize that at work are GOD’S divine favor and miraculous protection.

Miracles are so wonderful that they seem impossible to explain by natural laws. Miracles are unusual, exceptional, and pleasant events regarded as supernaturally brought about by an act of GOD. Miracles typically invoke a sense of admiration, awe, and wonder in the recipients and witnesses. Primarily miracles have the common thread of bene?ting a person or a group of persons.  The true test of miracles is their being wrought in support of GOD’s Holy Word.

Praise the Lord and pray in his name! Tell everyone what God has done. Sing praises to the Lord! Tell about God’s miracles. Celebrate and worship his holy name with all your heart.” Psalm 105: 1-3, CEV

Hebrews 4:16 invites us to therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. We can come boldly, not because we deserve it, but because GOD is so good, so gracious, and GOD lovingly forgives us.

As Prayer Champions we will come boldly to the Throne of Grace to obtain mercy and to make our request known! We will ask in Faith because it is in GOD we live and move and have our being.  We are dependent upon the LORD and want our lives to bring GOD Glory as we pray for ourselves and others confidently and in faith through the power of the Holy Spirit.

When we pray, we praise GOD in thanks and declare that according to GOD’s powerful word, our petition is granted! Our prayers do arouse GOD’S attention because they come from a place of sincerity, humility and love. As Prayer Champions we stand upon the scripture promises of James 1:5-7, CEB, “But anyone who needs wisdom should ask God, whose very nature is to give to everyone without a second thought, without keeping score. Wisdom will certainly be given to those who ask. 6 Whoever asks shouldn’t hesitate. They should ask in faith, without doubting. Whoever doubts is like the surf of the sea, tossed and turned by the wind.7 People like that should never imagine that they will receive anything from the Lord.”
