New Year 2020 Prayer & Fasting Day 4

To know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His suffering. Forgetting the things which are behind and stretching forward to the things which are before- for the prize to which God in Christ Jesus has called us upward. I was reflecting and digging deeper into the precious gifts that were presented to Jesus at His Birth. Gold (worth of Christ’s divine nature), Frankincense and Myrrh signifying the preciousness of His death and resurrection.

As lovers of Jesus let us go deeper in knowing Him, let us experience Christ in His death, in His resurrection and in His ascension. May we soar like an eagle as we wait on Him; May our heart be on things above where Christ is seated, and our lives be hidden with Christ. Like the Queen of Sheba who brought so much gold just to hear the wisdom of Solomon, so may we fall in love with the Bible and spend days and hours sitting at the feet of Jesus listening to His words.

As we pursue Christ others will be influenced; it will affect people around us and attract them to Jesus. As we behold the Lamb of God and gaze on His beauty, we will become bold. In His presence we will be clothed with power from on High to preach the gospel. As we walk with Jesus, we will bring His Kingdom everywhere we go, fulfilling His great commission to go and make disciples of all nations.
