Every Monday - this group is dedicated to praying for members and non members, friends and strangers, world events - and situations in your own heart. While we have few who actually request, we still feel - no, we know that we are called for the purpose of prayer - to intercede and we do not take this lightly.</p> <p>But even those committed to prayer and focused on intercession can grow tired of the worry, the pain, and the suffering we see. It can get overwhelming. Sometimes we simply forget the other half of the prayer equation, and that is praise. Sometimes we need to just run to God, not with our list of problems but simply with open arms and say "Here I am. I just want to be with you. I want to love you as you love me. I want to praise you." </p> <p>Rest assured God hears our prayers and God LOVES to bless us. But when we praise Him we release His power toward us.

It is my goal to encourage as many Christians as I can to build into their lives the discipline of memorizing scripture. This program must be used in conjunction with other exercises to memorize scripture such as reviewing verse cards, reciting, listening to tapes, reading, thinking it out in your head, writing, etc. In order to profit from scripture memorization, it must become a lifestyle. Not that you have to memorize any particular number of verses, but you should try to learn what you do learn very well. If you do, then God's word will always be at hand when you need. In addition, this program also can be used as a teaching and idea resource.

When we see ourselves as victims it is hard see the victories that await us. Not one of us has lived without some form of victory. Think back to a moment when you were fearless and came out victorious. How did you feel as you met your challenge or challenger? Did you ever, for one moment, even consider not achieving the desired outcome? Are there times when life seems to pass you by as you wait patiently for something good to happen? Do you often feel that things just happen to you, or that you have bad luck? A victor meets a challenge with little or no fear, while a victim looks around fearful of what may happen during the challenge. A victor envisions the outcome she or he desires then sets out to achieve it, whereas; a victim envisions someone stepping on him or her before even getting started. A victor acts according to set goals; as the victim, on the other hand does not set goals for fear of not achieving them.

Many Christians suffer from some form of emotional constipation when the topic of money is broached. From the tithe, to giving, to prosperity there are as many positions as there are denominations - and many of those positions prohibit the move of God when it comes to your financial situation. Certainly it would take this servant weeks to discuss the plethora of information and scriptures that deal with prosperity, money, tithing and all that other taboo stuff we don't want to talk about&nbsp; and we shudder when our pastors bring it up. But finances today are of the utmost importance to so many of us and it is therefore on my heart to talk to you. </p> <p>One of the basic tennants that is both vociferously opposed as being "Old Testament" and supported by those who teach "Prosperity" is the subject of the Tithe.

As the song repeated itself in my head I could almost hear the Church congregation singing along. A senior Mother, in a white dress and a fancy big white hat leads the chorus. She sings with a melodic voice, full of feeling and soul. You can't help but feel the spirit as you join her in song. It seems as though everyone who has been through a difficult time is uplifted with each note sang. When you sit back and think about what the words of this stirring song means, it leaves you in awe. God is with us every time we battle troubles in our lives. What sweeter notion is there than knowledge that you are not alone in battle.
