New Year Directives

Happy New Year!  Today marks the official beginning of a new season in Impact Church.  Although it was the middle part of November God began to shift things for us, we’re taking a month and a half of momentum into the New Year!

Today, we officially begin our 21 days of fasting.  Fasting is relative.  It’s all based out of obedience and it’s always about focus.  It’s the denial of the physical and mental to achieve a greater focus in the Spiritual.   When I fast it’s usually food; it’s my “LARGEST” hindrance to self-control.  As for you, fast what you feel directed to fast. It could be television, caffeine, etc.   We’re going 21 days with this; let’s believe God for a great beginning!

As you fast and pray, please pray over the following directives I shared at our New Year’s service.  In prayer, I wrote a few things I felt we needed to be responsible for in 2012. Here they are:

  • PRAY, PRAY and PRAY again!
  • Speak Life – Continue to speak God’s Word over every area of our lives!
  • Be POSITIVE – No Bad Attitudes!
  • Encouragement, Encouragement, Encouragement.
  • To pull people out of darkness! (Prayer, evangelism & discipleship)
  • To DECLARE that it’s a NEW SEASON
    • Open Heaven
    • God’s favor
  • To remind each other and ourselves that our roots are activated again!  We have the ability to produce life!
  • To remind each other and ourselves that Impact Church is a Great Investment!

 

Again, Happy New Year!

    Yes it is a New Season with New Beginnings. God is doing a good work and we are being obedient by staying focus and fasting and praying for these 21 days. We will pray, speak life, be positive, encourage and bring others outer of darkness.

    Here goes to a Happy New Year.

    What a great way to spend New Year’s Eve with the presence of GOD,
    family and friends. Thank you all for the time and work you put
    into bringing us together.

    This is a new year and a new day! Let us make each day of 2012
    count by sharing the gospel with everyone we meet.

    Speak Life and GOD’S love with compassion. Always encourage
    other with a positive attitude.
