D-day

Has the Holy Spirit been prompting you to start any new ministry lately? Or, serve Him in a new capacity? Or, get involved in a new outreach? Have you been praying with your pastor, or with another brother or sister in Christ about it? D-day was an expression used by the military to plan an operation when they didn't yet know which specific day they were starting. (Because D-day turned out to be June 6, 1944 for the largest amphibious assault in military history, it has become synonymous with that particular operation.)

So what changes are you planning for the Lord? What new beginnings are you yet to launch? The enemy is entrenched in this world just as the Nazis were entrenched on the beaches of Normandy, but the word of God promises that the gates of hell will not hold up against us.

And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.
(Mat 16:18)

Everything we do matters to God, and even though you may not feel you can do much, God uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. So which beach does the Lord want you to venture forth on? And when is your D-day; your planned launch? Maybe today?

When God launches His invasion of planet earth at the end of this age, Jesus will return with the saints to execute judgment on this world. Fortunately there is still time for us to rescue those that are outside the fold of Christ, to nurture the young and weak that are within the fold, and to prayerfully and boldly step out in faith for the cause of Christ.

Be bold, be brave, for the Lord your God is with you!
Yours in Him,
Pastor B.
