Revelation 22: 17
17The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.
So What?
Today block out 3 times somewhere in your day and take 5 minutes to pray for God to come into your life and pray ephesians 1 into your life. Pray that God will Come and change your generation- you can even use parts of the other verses we have been talking about this week. Finally, pray that God will return for his church and pray that his church will start to be ready for him.

Take this City!
Joel 2: 28-32
The Day of the LORD
28 "And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.
29 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
30 I will show wonders in the heavens
and on the earth,
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
31 The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.
32 And everyone who calls
on the name of the LORD will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,
as the LORD has said,
among the survivors
whom the LORD calls.
Prayer Points:
Pray that God will pour his spirit on Woodstock, on BridgePointe church, and on Fusion.
Pray that his power will be shown through those that have his spirit.
Pray that all those who continuously call on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Pray that we will have opportunities as Fusion to deliver people from their dark world and bring them on this epic adventure we are on in Jesus.
Pray that those who are depressed will find joy in God, those living without purpose will find it in God.

Trusting in God!
Psalm 37: 3- 9
3 Trust in the LORD and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight yourself in the LORD
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the LORD;
trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret—it leads only to evil.
9 For evil men will be cut off,
but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.
PRAY THIS OVER YOURSELF
So What?
Lets trust God and put our faith in him. Hebrew 11: 1 defines faith well, "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." James 4:18 says, "Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do." In my life I have started to strengthen my faith by praying and asking God to move in me and daily as I seek after him with my whole heart he asks me to step out IN FAITH. It might be something small- tell that woman in the grocery store that I (the God that loves her) am listening. I have two options; to listen to something that I have not seen or hope that the voice is that of the God that I know and love. So i step out and allow my actions to determine my faith and the woman breaks down and starts crying because that is the exact word she has been praying that God would answer.
All of that to say to strengthen your faith we have to step out and act on what God asks us to do and he will display himself through us out of that obedience. Over time as we become faithful and trust in God's voice it says in Proverbs that he will bless those who trust and have faith in him.
