"Singing In 2011 - God Has A Praise"
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, plans for
welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then
you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you.
13 You will seek me and find me; when you seek me with all your
heart, 14 I will be found by you, says the LORD.
Verse 11 tells us as children on God that He
has a plan for us that is prosperous and hopeful. We do not know
exactly what that plan is but God does and that is where trust comes
into our walk.
Psalms 118:8-
It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
Proverbs 3:5-
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own
understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct
thy path.
Psalms 37:23-
The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth
in his way.
God’s Promise
Verses 12 through 14 tells us that once we
believe verse 11 then we will seek out God and find him.
Psalms 91:15
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in
trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. 16 With long life will
I satisfy him and shew him my salvation.
Psalms 91:11
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all
thy ways.
Psalms 121: 1
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. 3 He
will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not
slumber. 4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor
sleep. 5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy
right hand. 6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by
night. 7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall
preserve thy soul. 8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy
coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
Numbers 23: 19
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that
he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he
spoken, and shall he not make it good?
God’s dreams for us become our living
reality when we walk with Him.
Genesis 5:24-
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.

Servant Team
Prayer Ministry
The one thing that holds this ministry and our work together is our
prayer ministry headed up by Karen Page and the prayer team known as
the Twelve Disciples.
Did you know that our prayer register has over 300 requests to date?
Each of the names is called out to the Lord everyday not just
on Wednesday. It is a
humbling thing to call out 300 names to the Lord knowing that you
need as much prayer as any of these names.
Many people will be touched by the Lord through Hands Up
Ministry who otherwise might never attend church. |

HANDS UP MINISTRY CHRISTMAS
Since
2000 the first year of ministry HUM has adopted at least one
family to provide for their Christmas needs. Each year
that commitment has grown one additional family with the
ministry. As we are completing our twelfth year of
ministry we will adopt twelve families through working with
Richmond Redevelopment & Housing Authority. In total with
these twelve families we will have provided a Christmas
celebration for 28 families through Weed & Seed plus an
additional 6 families through Chesterfield Christmas Mother and
3 at large families and 54 families through RR&HA.
To date 91 families have been blessed by God through Hands Up
Ministry
I hope each of you will consider helping the efforts of HUM to minister to these needy families. The children we touch today will be our leaders tomorrow. "Put Christ first and you will never be last."

Butterflies
A man found a cocoon of a
butterfly. One day a
small opening appeared.
He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled
to force its body through that little hole.
Then it seemed to stop making any progress.
It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could, and it
could go no further.
So the man decided to help
the butterfly. He took a
pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon.
The butterfly then emerged easily.
But it had a swollen body and small shriveled wings.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected
that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able
to support the body, which would contract in time.
Neither happened!
In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around
with a swollen body and shriveled wings.
It never was able to fly.
What the man, in his kindness
and haste, did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and
the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny
opening were God's way of forcing fluid from the body of the
butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once
it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are
exactly what we need in our lives.
If God allowed us to go through our lives without any
obstacles, it would cripple us.
We would not be as strong as what we could have been.
We could never fly!
I asked for Strength … And
God gave me Difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for Wisdom … And God
gave me Problems to solve.
I asked for Prosperity … And
God gave me Brain and Brawn to work.
I asked for Courage … And God
gave me Danger to overcome.
I asked for Love … And God
gave me Troubled people to help.
I asked for Favors……And God gave me Opportunities |
