Church Planting

When you look at the membership stats available from the General Conference website, http://www.adventiststatistics.org/, notice that there are about 60,000 churches and 60,000 companies. That adds up to roughly 120,000.
A couple of my priority prayers are that at least 24,000 more churches and companies get planted which would come to 144,000 and that every church and company this year will at least know about the 10 days of prayer for the 2nd Pentecost. Both of these may not be answered this year but they conceivably could be answered in only a few more years.
One position on the 144,000 today is that each number represents a company (church) of believers because if you look at the way the 12 tribes were counted in the Bible, they were always counted by heads of households. Halleluia! the horizon is getting brighter now. (Hosea 6:3 - “Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.”)

Psalm 91:1

I was reading Psalm 91 & the first verse really struck me, like a bolt from the blue, what it is really talking about. “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. ” He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High is talking about dwelling with God in deep prayer, meaningful Bible study & having a real relationship with God. Abiding under the shadow of the Almighty means that as a result of this deep relationship with God, we will abide under His protection & love. It really struck me after all these years of reading & not really understanding what it was talking about.

I was in awe when it was mentioned on the 3ABN interview how important it is for us to not only search our hearts, but to ask the Lord to guide and search our hearts so that we can get rid of the “junk” in our home that has no reflection on Salvation. Many of us are unaware of the subtleness of things that seems harmless. This is my petition to every believer to clear out every nook and cranny of our homes right now in preperation of this Spirit lead revival, don’t wait until the time is here..do so now. GOD IS WAITING ON US.
