Spicy Black Bean And Lentil Salad

Expanding facilities to do Kingdom work can put your church on the front lines of spiritual battles. From before the church enters into a building program, through dedication Sunday, the prayer team must be constantly seeking the guidance, protection, and grace of God. Pray for the building, pray for the leaders and committee members, pray for unity, and pray for those who labor for the church in building the new facility. Set up a prayer schedule to insure that several people are praying each day for the building program.

As husbands sacrifice their lives for the sake of their wives - loving, leading, serving, protecting, and providing for them – the world gets a glimpse of God's grace. Sinners see that Christ has gone to a cross where He suffered, bled, and died for them so that they could experience eternal salvation through submission to Him. They also see in a wife's relationship with her husband that such submission isn't a burden to bear. Marriage onlookers observe a wife joyfully and continually experiencing her husband's sacrificial love for her and then gladly and spontaneously submitting in selfless love to him. In this visible representation of the gospel, the world realizes that following Christ isn't a matter of forced duty. Instead, it's a means to full, eternal, and absolute delight.
