February 2012

Greetings,

I purchased a calendar for 2012 from "Dayspring" and it included the following:

"When the time was right,

the sea parted,

the walls fell down,

the lions went hungry,

the sun stood still,

the star appeared,

the waves were calmed,

the Lord ascended ...

And when the time is right,

The King of Kings will return.

God is never early and He's never late -

He's always right on time and His Plans for you are good."

God's plans for us are good. We are told as much in Jeremiah 29:11: "'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to give you hope and a future.'" The prophetic promise was given in a letter to the Israelites by the prophet Jeremiah while they were exiles in Babylon. In the midst of their darkness and despair, God was promising that He would bring them back to the Promised Land. He was telling them that He had plans for their future; wonderful plans; plans that would prosper them and give them hope. He also told them, "'Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,' declares the Lord, 'and I will bring you bring you back from captivity.'"

We have been coming before the Lord in prayer for our church for a long time now. And God is answering our prayers. He is bringing ministries into our church and He is bringing people to help us with those ministries. He is touching our hearts and He is bringing us out of our comfort zone. His plans for us our good.

Blessings,

Pastor Sue
