December is For Prayer

The month of December is for recommitting ourselves to prayer for one another and matters that matter. It seems to be easy to fall out of the habit of regular prayer when the stuff of life happens and pulls on us and disappoints us and distracts us. But we can refocus and return to (or begin) the all-important discipline of regular prayer in December. Eph.6:18, Amp — “With all prayer and petition pray [with specific requests] at all times [on every occasion and in every season] in the Spirit, and with this in view, stay alert with all perseverance and petition [interceding in prayer] for all God’s people.”  1Tim.2:8, Amp — “Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger and disputing or quarreling or doubt [in their mind].”


December is For Going Over

The month of DECEMBER IS FOR GOING OVER. December is for going over things that have mounted up and stubbornly stood in opposition. We will not wait for the New Year but will go over the top of opposition and defeat at the end of the year so that we may have a head start at the beginning of the year and our going over shall set the pace for 2018. ”…YOU SHALL GO OVER and take possession of that good land.” (Deut.4:22, ESV)
