Perspective:-

Attempt great things

Sixty seven year old Vijaypat singhanias record breaking balloon ride is a challenge to both young and old. On 26^th November this industrialist-aviator climbed to 69,852 ft in hot air balloon, breaking the 17 year record of 64,997 ft by U.K. based Per Lindstrand.

See the adventurous and competitive spirit of these men, that too when they are even advanced in years.

Take risks if necessary. True faith life always involves risk.

Trusting in the power of the Spirit of God and understanding the perfect will of God for our life we should strive to achieve, gain more and more. Remember the famous saying of William Carry, Expect Great things from God and Attempt Great things for the Lord. That may be little risky indeed.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun:
yes"> But Let us be achievers, over comers, record-breakers for better Christian life and service. Such a life will be a testimony as well as a challenge to others.

Brief Article: -<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Seven Minutes with God -2

stopping to do a Bible study on some word, thought, or theological
problem which presents itself. Read for the pure joy of reading and allowing God to speak -- perhaps

just 20 verses, or maybe a complete chapter. When you have finished Mark, start the Gospel of John. Soon you'll want to go ahead and read the entire New Testament.

After God has spoken through His Book, then speak to Him -- in prayer. You now have two and a half minutes left for fellowship with Him in four areas of prayer that you can remember by the word ACTS.

A -- ADORATION. This is the purest kind of prayer because it's all for God -- there's nothing in it for you. You don't barge into the presence of royalty. You
begin

with the proper salutation. So worship Him. Tell the Lord that you love Him. Reflect on His greatness, His power, His majesty, and sovereignty!

C -- CONFESSION follows. Having seen Him you now want to be sure every sin is cleansed and forsaken. Confession comes from a root word meaning "to agree together with." Apply this to prayer. It means to agree with God. Something happened yesterday you called a slight exaggeration -- God calls it a lie!
You call it strong language -- God calls it swearing. You call it telling the truth about somebody in the church -- God calls it gossip. "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me" (Psalm 66:18).

responsibilities -- even thank Him for hardships. "In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you"
(I Thessalonians 5:18).

S -- SUPPLICATION. This means to "ask for,
earnestly and humbly." This is the part of your prayer life where you make your petitions known to Him. Ask for others, then for yourself. Why not include other people around the world, such as missionaries, students studying abroad, friends in distant places, and above all the people of many lands who have yet to hear about Jesus Christ.

119:18)

2-1/2 Prayer

<SPAN style="mso-spacerun:

Confession (I John 1:9)

Supplication
(Matthew 7:7)

This is simply a guide. Very soon you will discover that it is impossible to spend only seven minutes with the Lord.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun:
yes"> An amazing thing happens -- seven minutes become 20, and it's not long before you're spending 30 precious minutes with Him. Do not become devoted to the habit, but to the Saviour.

Sermon Out line:-

Psalm 32

The blessing or happiness that transcends all other human joy!

The Forgiveness of Sin

David composed this psalm after Nathan came to him. Psalm 51 was the confession of his great sin and prayer for forgiveness. Ps 32 is the record of the confession made, and the forgiveness obtained, and the blessedness of his position as a sinner restored to Gods favour.

I. What Made Up This Great Blessing?

a) we must come to terms with the reality + seriousness of our sin! David recognised his sin+ guilt, acknowledged it, + found forgiveness! vv 1-2, 5.

-there are sinful acts, there are sinful habits, + a sinful condition (state) of the soul. We have a totally sinful heart, and this is the basis of our sinful habits, + these manifest
themselves in sinful deeds.

SIN includes both guilt and pollution.

c) NOTE : 3 expressions for sin in verse 1.

2. Covering of a stain not hiding them ourselves - but as the

3. Cancellation of a Debt God no longer reckons sin to their

2. <SPAN

3. Formula for repentance v.5

III IS THIS BLESSING FOR EVERYONE?

2. Assurance of eternal preservation from the waters of judgement v.6b

News & Views: Increasing persecution<SPAN style="COLOR:
fuchsia">

All over India it seems opposition to gospel is increasing.
The latest is the brutal attack on Evangelist Shaji Samuel and the believers in Panavel, New Bombay.

Bro. Shaji says, though he has faced opposition and attack earlier too, it was so severe that he can not even imagine that scene now. He became unconscious immediately after they began to beat him but still kept on attacking him for one hour. It was only after they finished with three of them they were dragged to the police station in an auto rickshaw they (attackers) themselves had arranged and charged a case against our brethren.

The police initially were not even willing to send them to the hospital; only after next duty officer took charge, seeing the deteriorating state of the
brethren especially Shaji, police made the arrangement to take them to hospital. It was due to the suggestion of the municipality hospital authorities Shaji was taken to Lok hospital which is run by our brethren.

The Lord in a wonderful way intervened. Considering the number of people who attacked, the place and the timing, much more could have happened. Our brethren do not want to give any complaint to the authorities.
But request the prayers of the saints, that they may be restored to full health soon and continue in their testimony more effectively for the Lord.

Realizing the deterorating state of our land we need to pray and make use of every opportunity to share the gospel of Christ before it is too late.

To ponder over:- 1Cori.9:22

To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak; I am made all things to all men that I might by all means save some.

Bible says that every believer has been given a specific gift by the sovereign will of God for the service in the body of Christ, thus all of us are unique and we do not compete with one another. We only need to fulfil the specific role the Lord has graciously given us in the body of Christ. <DIV class=MsoNormal style="BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: medium none; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 0in; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none;

Sad to note that though we do every thing to get to the top in the secular field we do little to grow in spiritual life. We are not bold enough to take steps of faith to grow. As a result often our life and service remains average or even below that. We have failed to make an impact, failed to inspire, set an example or a challenge for others in relation to spiritual life. <DIV class=MsoNormal style="BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: medium none; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 0in;

Rom.12:11. We should always desire and labour to go up even breaking records!   The Lord hates complacency in a Christians life. To the luke-warm Laodiceans He commands, Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.Rev.3:19 <DIV class=MsoNormal style="BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: medium none; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 0in; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; mso-border-alt:
