INTERCESSORY PRAYER

"The circumstances of life, the events of life, and the people around me in life, do not make me the way I am, but reveal the way I am" [Dr. Sam Peeples].

Dear Family,

I wanted to take this opportunity, to make this opportunity to let you know how much we, Pastor Gabe and myself, love you!! And I want to encourage you to hold on!

I know much time has passed and much opposition has come our way. However, God continues to promise great things for New Horizon Vision Center.

During the last week at our Price Avenue and Whiskey Road location, God dealt with me to follow my pastor, my leader, my head and my husband. I knew God was telling me to be obedient without questioning and without understanding. During those same days, I read in my bible about Abraham taking Isaac to sacrifice him. As I read, I knew God was speaking to me to make a sacrifice of our Isaac. See Isaac was the great promise given to Abraham. Abraham was promised to be the father of a great Nation and the promise was dependent upon that same Isaac, that same promised child.

The child had been given. He believed all that God had promised was fulfilled in the BIRTH of Isaac. So how could Abraham receive all that God had promised IF he killed, sacrificed the very proof, the very evidence of his promise? The answer is that Abraham didn’t know how. But Abraham knew he could trust God and that he loved God- and soon afterward knew that he loved God MORE than God’s promises!!

In that same way, God promised Pastor Gabriel A. Beady a church by the name of New Horizon Vision Center. And just as Isaac was birthed, so was New Horizon Vision Center BIRTHED!

God has come to Pastor Gabe, as He did Abraham, to ask him to sacrifice his promise, to sacrifice the future of New Horizon Vision and to prove that we love God MORE than we love His promises to us.

After Abraham was obedient and proved his love and devotion to God, he was abundantly blessed and prosperous. Today Pastor Gabe and I STAND in obedience and devotion to God. Simply waiting on God’s abundant blessings and prosperity for New Horizon Vision Center. Knowing that God is a God of His Word!!! Knowing that God is able to do all things and knowing He is willing!

During these past few months, God has taught me so much! I know now that I do love God more than I do His promises. And I have learned that it isn’t about me! It is about God and His will being done. It isn’t about being a Pastor as much as it is about being a servant of God. It isn’t about a building as much as it is about a group of people that I call family!

So dear family, please know that you are loved by your pastors and by your heavenly father! God has not forgotten us, but is very hard at work on our behalf behind the scenes.

Have a great and blessed week!

Pastor Ginger
