Preacher Upchurch has given us the theme “Victorious by Faith” for the stewardship emphasis this month at Mid-Way Baptist Church. Hebrews 11:6 says “but without Faith it is impossible to please God: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.”
Paul was writing to the Jewish Christians in the epistle, telling them that Judaism had come to and end through the fulfillment of Christ as the purpose of the Law. In today’s society it is necessary for us to focus our lives around the promises of God. Realizing He is our source and strength for our lives. The world can place its trust in the dollar, or a job, or the economy or government. But as we have all seen over the past year, placing our faith in anything but God is folly. God has an abundance of blessings he has stored up for his children if we would only ask of Him.
As we approach this 42nd annual stewardship emphasis, MBC will offer Bible studies, testimonies and preaching outlining God’s miraculous plan of economy. The Chest of Joash service will be held on Sunday, December 6th in one big service at 9:30am. This service is a celebration which is designed to glorify God and His mercy, faith and provision for His children. You don’t want to miss this service as we worship the one who has given us so much in our lives here on earth.
God will use all of the above; however the most important ingredient is prayer and fasting. Look at your calendar and mark a day to join heart and soul with the MBC family in fasting and praying. Oh how we need the power of God on every endeavor for the Lord. Preacher Upchurch has asked us all to join hands with him and the MBC family as we attempt great things for God, and expect great things from God! Our prayer is for God to Bless you and yours as you faithfully serve Him! Amen!
