Strategically Positioned // Kennedy Makwenda
We are here for a reason - God has called us to it
God allows his people to go through desperate situations even though he loves us. The devil uses these times to sow doubt. The Word of God is powerful regardless of if things are good, or if things are bad.
People who are going to be used strategically will use the language of faith. We need to learn to act on what we believe even though it may be "risky"

A Pattern of Praise // Nathan Jorden
A Pattern of Praise
Doxology
Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
How unsearchable his judgments,
and his paths beyond tracing out!
“Who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been his counselor?”
“Who has ever given to God,
that God should repay them?”
For from him and through him and for him are all things.
To him be the glory forever! Amen.
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
