From the hour of 5am 
Our focus will be on 
Solidarity 


Prayer- 
Lord God You said a house divided against itself cannot stand, may we Your children stand in solidarity with one another as go on on our journey in this life. Let unity reign in the body of Your Son, Jesus Christ, amen. 


Praise- 
Stand up, stand up for Jesus! 
Ye soldiers of the cross 
Lift high His royal banner 
It must not suffer loss 
From victory unto victory 
His army shall He lead 
Till every foe is vanquished And Christ He is Lord indeed. 

Stand up stand up for Jesus The trumpet call obey 
Forth to the mighty conflict In this His glorious day 
Ye that are men now serve Him Against unnumbered foes 
Let courage rise with danger And strength to strength oppose. 

Stand up stand up for Jesus Stand in His strength alone 
The arm of flesh will fail you You dare not trust your own 
Put on the gospel armour And watching unto prayer 
Where duty calls or danger Be never wanting there. 

Stand up stand up for Jesus The strife will not be long 
This day the noise of battle The next the victor’s song 
To him that overcometh A crown of life shall be 
He with the King of glory Shall reign eternally. 


Ponder- 
While some people are quick to visit prisons to reach out, they often do not consider all those living in one form of prison or the other around them and sadly even themselves. We are often called upon to join solidarity movements either for religion, race, politics, or against crime or a negative frequent occurrence. But what if our solidarity starts from our hearts where we agree that the authority of the world and all lives has been given to Jesus Christ by God Almighty Himself? The reason why we have divergent views on issues that ought to be generally agreed on is because people now believe their opinions count even if it is above what the Holy Spirit counsels against! Who has the final authority in this world, in your life and in all that you commit your life to, be it family, work, school, causes or movements. 


Read- 
2 John 1: 9, 10, 11, 7 - Anyone who goes ahead and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God; he who abides in the doctrine has both the Father and the Son. If any one comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into the house or give him any greeting (no solidarity); for he who greets him shares his wicked work. For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will NOT acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. 


Prayer-point- 
Let more children of God stand for each other and fight the only enemy. Let our solidarity be real, pure and enduring as we look out for one another. Let us never join the side of hate. Let us love as God instructed. 


Charge- 
Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. In all that you align with, does Jesus Christ take pre-eminence?

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
