Good Morning Church,
I recall a time in scripture when Jesus gave Peter the inside scoop of some plans the devil had in store for him. He said, [and I paraphrase] "Peter, Satan desires to have you so that he can sift you just like we sift wheat. But don't worry, I've already prayed for you." [PAUSE] Isn't it good to know that before we even go through the trial, Jesus has already prayed for us? There is something about knowing that JESUS, not His best friend, not His cousin, and not His representative, but JESUS HIMSELF prayed for you. My God. I'm getting happy all by myself. Let me get back to my point. Look at what He prayed for Peter:
"But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not:" - Luke 22:32a
Family, my sincere prayer for you, in the midst of what you may be going through or have already gone through, I pray that your FAITH fail not. Keep on trusting. Keep on believing. Keep standing on what He told you in the light, even though it might be dark now.
I invite you to our service this coming Sunday as I will be preaching on "A FAITH THAT PLEASES GOD." It is still the Summer of Empowerment at RevivalTab, and God wants us to Get Our Faith Right, too!
Sunday will be a special gathering time as not only will Ps. Lisa and RT Worship be ministering to us in song, but we will also be OFFICIALLY WELCOMING NEW MEMBERS into the RT Church Family. Over the last couple of years, during the pandemic, we have had the privilege of having new families connect with us and make RT their preferred place of worship. Unfortunately, because of our virtual-only mode of worship services, we have not had the chance to officially welcome them into the family. Well, this Sunday, we get to do just that, and we will do it for our in-person and online spiritual family. If you would like to take that next step of becoming a new member of RevivalTab or even recommitting to RevivalTab being your church-home, please complete the Membership Registration Form HERE. After we have welcomed all our new members into the family, we will share in a special time of Communion.
But wait, that's not all...
We have a new Deacons Board candidate that we will present to the congregation this Sunday. These are exciting times of growth and development for us as a church, and we can't wait to come together; in the manner you feel most comfortable and experience the goodness of God together.
Lastly, I want to thank you for your prayers for my entire family and me as we recover from COVID. Yes, everyone from Baby Ashlyn to Mother Gough tested positive, but our God continues to show us that He is a healer! We are all doing well and getting better day by day. And we want the same testimony to be said of you. So if you need prayer, please tell me how we can pray for you by filling out this PRAYER REQUEST FORM. Then, our prayer ministry team and I will lift those requests in prayer, believing God for a breakthrough on your behalf.
Sincerely,
Ps. Devin
