Have you heard of the 4 unknown heroes in the New Testament? Let’s look at the story in Luke 5, where a paralyzed man was able to receive divine healing and true salvation. All this was possible because of 4 people that were willing to put their lives out, so they could bring their paralyzed friend into the presence of Jesus. Their names never were mentioned in the Bible, but what they did has saved the soul of one person and brought many to greater faith in Christ Jesus.

Shalom to all of you workers in His field ....

In the genealogy of Jesus (Matthew 1), the names of only a few women (mothers) were written. Also, the names of Biblical characters such as Abraham and King David were never written. We believe, though, that the roles that Abraham’s and King David’s mothers played were not small. There are many other women in the Bible whose names were never written even though the events and testimonies of their lives were recorded. Some examples are: the widow in Zarephath, the Shunamite woman, the woman who experienced 12 years of bleeding but was healed by God, and many more.

The church cannot live without prayers, and the prayers of the righteous move the heart of God.

As our church is moving into many new territories in the ministry to influence the Seven Mountains , we will see more challenges as well as many new opportunities. Education, business, family, religion, entertainment, media, and government are the seven pillars of society which our local churches are penetrating, so as to fill them with godliness.

1. Prepare your heart for fellowship with God (Psalm 24:3-5)

- Confess known sin in your life (1 John 1:6-9; 1 John 3:21-22; Hebrews 10:19)

- Forgive all who have offended or hurt you (Mark 11:25-26)

- See yourself then as dead to sin and sinless in the eyes of God. (Romans 6:11; 2 Corinthians 5:21)
