Every year we get touched by something sentimental about Christmas. Something reminds us that we have what we have by the Grace of God. We renew our sense of meaning and being. And after Christmas, so many of us forget it faster than we will forget our New Year's resolutions.
This is why it is important to be a part of something that is ongoing, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our occupation of Earth as the manifestation of the Kingdom of God is not seasonal, and it's not an event. It's reality!! God has called us to pray for the rest of our lives! And we need one another to do that because the things of this world NEVER stop calling us away from God. And the devil NEVER takes a day off. That is the reason this world, this nation, this city, and many of our own lives are lost and full of strife and hopelessness. The Kingdom of Darkness is the real City that Never Sleeps, and we are waiting to get caught up during the holidays...if we are even doing that.
I challenge you to become a better Heavenly citizen. Embrace your rights in Christ Jesus; exercise His power, and repudiate the "god of this world," Satan. (2 Corinthians 4:4).
Meanwhile, today has no 24 hour prayer sponsor...
