Wow! What an amazing time our Breakthough Fasting and Prayer
Emphasis has been! I'm very, very encouraged by the incredible response
of the FBNE family. The participation was really good and enthusiastic
to the fast, to the 24-hour prayer vigil, and to tonight's service and
dinner! The service was packed with songs of praise and testimonies.
The testimonies were not only abundant but they were amazing! They
encouraged, convicted, inspired, taught, and also contained a lot of
humor! Wow what a service! The hour went by in what seemed like 15
minutes! And what a feast we had afterwards! My only regret is that I
have but one stomach. But I think I did eat enough for 2!
Thank
you FBNE family! I'm wowed by your desire to seek more of the Father
through this time. Many of you have shared how much this time has meant
to you. Thank you for telling me! To the Breakthrough Team, you are
amazing, you provided terrific inspiration, education and leadership.
John Brydon led the service tonight, thank you so much! To all who
worked in the service and the dinner, thank you so much!
What's
next? I don't have a specific answer, but one thing is for sure; we
will be doing corporate fasting and prayer again. And now we need to
incorporate fasting into our regular lives more. I so appreciated
Teresa's testimony tonight on how she and Matthew are going to fast
select lunches. That's great! The Breakthrough Team isn't finished
yet, we'll be meeting in the next few weeks to ponder what's next.
We'll be asking for feedback on this experience soon, so please share
your insights with us. But you don't have to wait. If you have a
God-story to tell please respond to this post and let us know. I know
that we ran out of time before we ran out of testimonies tonight, and I
also know that not everybody who participated was able to be there
tonight.
I'm out of words for this blog. But the Lord has one more thing to say to you, FBNE family:
"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s
special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called
you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you
were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not
received mercy, but now you have received mercy." (1 Peter 2:9-10)
For Him,
Bob
