Matthew, chapter 11<\/p>\n
John The Baptist doubted.\u00a0 John was filled from birth by the Spirit of God and was the selected forerunner to Christ.\u00a0 John is in prison and he wants to know for sure that sitting in a jail cell was for what is right.\u00a0 Jesus tells them to testify to John, to tell John what is taking place in the lives of people.\u00a0 People are being healed, delivered from the chains of Satan, and souls are being saved.\u00a0 Tell John, God is at work and what he did set the stage for the Messiah.\u00a0 Yes John, it is I!\u00a0 Yes John, your work was good and right.\u00a0 I know you sit in a prison feeling cheated out of life but John, you did great things for the glory of God.\u00a0 John, there is none greater born of women than you, you were faithful to the work of God.<\/p>\n
Do you need someone to testify?\u00a0 Do you need to hear about souls getting saved and lives being touched?\u00a0 Do you need to be reminded that God is at work?\u00a0 God is at work!\u00a0 Many are serving the Lord and lives are being touch by the gospel of Jesus because of your faithfulness to give, to attend and to help in the various ministries of MBC.\u00a0 YES IT IS AND WILL BE WORTH IT!<\/p>\n
Remember God will judge those who reject and refuse Christ.\u00a0 But God calls us to come unto Him.\u00a0 To make sure we are in the work with Him.\u00a0 Lay your burden down at His feet and allow the power of His spirit to encourage you and strengthen you.\u00a0 God loves you and as His child you are valued!<\/p>\n
It will be worth it all when we see Jesus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"excerpt","protected":false},"author":1167,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","filesize_raw":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1353","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bible-reading"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1353","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1167"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1353"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1353\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1354,"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1353\/revisions\/1354"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1353"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1353"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mbcnewhaven.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
