Be Men Of ...

Based on Mark 9:14-29 ...

To the Dads:
1. Be men of prayer.  Speak up in the chaos.  Cry out to Jesus in the middle of the craziness and noise of the world around you. 

2. Be men of obedience & action.  If God asks you something or directs you to do something, just do it.  You don't have to be someone you're not or do something you're not meant to.  Just be who you are in Christ. 

3. Be men of faith.  Believe for your today and your tomorrow.  When the situation calls for you to give in or give up, you keep believing in Jesus for your breakthrough.

4. Be men of commitment. Do not give up on someone or something because it's not what you expected or hoped it would be.  If God gave it to you, He can give you the grace and strength to stay committed to the people or situation.  Be committed to God, your family, and your calling. 

5. Be men of excellence.  Always want the best for your family.  Work hard for it.  God will honor your desires and ambitions.  Do your part and He has promised to do His.

To the Church:
1. When the world comes to us, the "disciples", looking for help, prayer, and support, lets make sure that we are strong in God, full of His Spirit, and ministering unto them with love.  Let the world not say, the "disciples couldn't do it.".  We can learn from the situation ... certain things can only be handled thru fasting & prayer. 

2. Do not doubt the power of Jesus Christ.  We should not say, "if you can Lord, do this?".  We need to believe that Jesus can and will do it.  Our faith will determine the eventual results.  Jesus can do EVERYTHING.  Do we believe that HE CAN!  "Everything is possible for him who believes." - Mark 9:23

Enjoy the Ride,

Cecil
