Recognized Dependence

The vision of reaching 1000s of people with the Gospel of Jesus in the Northwest will not (and cannot!) happen apart from complete dependency upon the Sovereign God who reigns above.

I'm reminded of the words that the angel said to the prophet Zechariah:

"Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts." - Zechariah 4:6

Again, in the words of the Psalmist:

"Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain." - Psalm 127:1

The vision is God's, and so is the work.  Always has been; always will be.

Paul says it this way:

"I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth." - 1 Corinthians 3:6

"Father, help us this day to continue in mission with complete dependency upon You, Your faithful Word, and Your Holy Spirit. Raise up and send forth effectual laborers into this great Harvest for the fame and glory of Your son, Jesus. Amen."
