Amazing things happen to the one who is saved by faith in the Person and work of Christ. The moment we are born of the Spirit, we are positioned in Christ and baptized into His Body. We are transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of His dear Son, and declared righteous by God because we are identified with Christ's death and Resurrection. We become heirs of God, joint-heirs with Christ, and have an inheritance that is kept for us in heaven. We are Spiritually Sealed By The Spirit Of God, unto the day of Christ. There are many such functional ministries that occur the moment a man or woman believes. More often than not, we are unaware of the changes that take place at the point of regeneration. Only as we move forward in our Christian life, do we learn of the glories that are ours in Him. One such non-experiential ministry is the Holy Spirit in the body of each believer. God is not in the real estate business of selling or renting out His purchased possession. He has chosen to use each of us as Ministers of Reconciliation in His perfect plan of redemption, and His Spirit provides the power we need to fulfil the mission and ministry He has for each of His children. The Holy Spirit Who began a good work in each of us, is the same Spirit Who guides us into all truth and teaches us all things. He is the One Who guards and protects, and He is the One who chastens and corrects us. The same Spirit Who dwells within us at the point of salvation and empowers us throughout our life, will enable us to guard the precious treasure that has been entrusted to us, as we grow in grace and in a knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we stand amazed when we realize all that You have done for us. Thank You for our salvation and secure positions in Christ. Thank You for the Spirit and the stunning work He is carrying out in our lives. Thank You for entrusting us with the gospel of grace and for the privilege of being used by You as a minister of reconciliation in Your ongoing plan of redemption. Take our lives and use us as You will, for Your greater praise and glory. This we ask in Jesus' precious name, AMEN.

Prayer
We are a growing group of people praying daily for and with others. We were led to start an online ministry to deliver what is needed more now than ever, a place where you can go to easily to submit a prayer request or requests involving others to pray for your needs. The Power of Prayer. Matthew 18:20- For where two or more come together in my name, there I am among them. You are never alone in prayer. The Power Of Numbers Praying.
We ask you to pray for this ministry, for its success in helping others in need of prayer. Archives
