一﹑本週經文Scriptures: 使徒行傳26:18-20 Acts
18 我差你到他們那裡去,要叫他們的眼睛得開,從黑暗中歸向光明,從撒但權下歸向 神;又因信我,得蒙赦罪,和一切成聖的人同得基業。』」 19 「亞基帕王啊,我故此沒有違背那從天上來的異象; 20 先在大馬士革,後在耶路撒冷和猶太全地,以及外邦,勸勉他們應當悔改歸向 神,行事與悔改的心相稱。
18 I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’19 “So then, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the vision from heaven. 20 First to those in Damascus, then to those in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and then to the Gentiles, I preached that they should repent and turn to God and demonstrate their repentance by their deeds.

Pray for the church’s newly nominated elder / deacon candidates. We call with one heart that every candidate has the characteristics of Barnabas. Acts 11:24 describes Barnabas in particular: He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord. We call with one heart that every deacon act with good morals and often desires to let the Holy Spirit work in their life, rather than acting on their own or on human flesh. We call, all candidates to have spiritual power and have great faith by serving God, and by trusting in God, and a great number of people will be brought into the Lord.

Let’s start praying for the BEST list. May the Lord give more love to people and souls, not just for what Jesus commanded, but to have a heart of true love, and to pray for all co-workers, so that Jesus can restore our enthusiasm for Him and aim at the real enemy. The real enemy is not people who can be seen, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. We ask the Lord to give us unity. May God give us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.
