"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new
creature; old
things are
passed away:
behold, all
things are
become new."
......2 Cor.
5: 17.

We have been
blessed by the
Lord with
another New
Year in which
to serve Him.
Two Thousand
and Seven is
another year
of victory, in
which we are
closer to the
coming of the
King of all
Kings and Lord
of all Lords!
Our Lord
desires souls
to be saved
and revived in
2007. As we
share in the
burden of the
Lord, we will
see our
prayers
answered
across this
land.
We have so
many blessings
for which to
give thanks,
as we look
back over the
past year and
reflect on how
our Lord has
helped us each
day. We have
been given
liberty
through the
blood of the
Lamb. As we
proclaim and
testify of the
saving work of
Jesus, we can
walk in
freedom, as
lead by His
Holy Spirit.
When one
receives the
life of
Christ, they
are not merely
turning over a
new leaf, but
beginning a
new life with
a new Master,
as they live
in vital unity
with Christ.
Today will
soon be gone,
2006 can never
be recalled.
What we do
each day for
the Lord is
what counts
all eternity.
We must have a
vision for the
future.
Without a
vision, people
perish, but as
we walk by
faith; we see
what may seem
impossible, as
being possible
through God's
Holy Spirit.
All things are
possible to
those who only
believe and
have true
spiritual
vision.
Another year
of Jubilee is
ours. This is
the acceptable
year of the
Lord to set
captives free,
bind up the
brokenhearted,
and proclaim
the good news
of salvation.
There is hope
for the
hopeless and
sight for the
blind, through
the Lord's
finished work
at Calvary. He
has proclaimed
liberty and we
also can
proclaim the
message of
life and hope
in Him.
The New Year
can be one of
renewed hope.
The best is
yet to come
for children
of God who
walk by faith
and hold on to
God's
promises. Wait
upon the Lord
and your
strength will
be renewed as
His joy fills
your soul May
your heart be
filled with
cheer, as you
celebrate a
"Happy New
Year." With
Jesus as Lord,
we have life
abundantly and
have been set
free.
Regardless of
the problems
or sorrows of
2006, there
are new
opportunities
just inside
the New Year's
door of 2007.
For those who
lost loved
ones during
the past year,
they will be
one year
closer until
the time of
heaven's grand
reunion. "Let
not your heart
be troubled,
neither let it
be afraid."
Jesus has gone
away to
prepare a
place for us,
that where He
is, we may be
also. Our Lord
knows the
plans He has
for us, which
are good and
not evil, to
give us an
expected
future. "All
things will
work together
for good, for
those who love
the Lord and
are the
called,
according to
His purpose."
{Rom. 8: 28}
May Jesus be
glorified in
the days and
weeks ahead.
God will
supply all of
our needs
according to
His riches in
glory when we
seek Him
first, and His
Kingdom of
righteousness.
As we let God
revive in
2007, we will
see His hand
move across
this land to
heal and help.
We're closer
to heaven in
2007.
Have a Happy
New Year!
Blessings in
Christ,
