“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20 MISSION MOMENT In Case You Didn’t Know Once again in 2019, Zion Baptist Church is listed as one of the top 100 churches in Georgia who provide financial support to the Georgia Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries. The Georgia Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries reports the following information for 2019: There were 1,013 clients served with 890 individuals receiving residential care on the Children’s Home campuses and in the Group Homes. Thank you, Zion, for the care that you help provide for so many unfortunate children across our state.

Dr. L Lane Collins II. Success (v. 10)—“So that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in A woman walked into her bathroom at home. As all respects, bearing fruit in every good work she did, she saw her husband weighing himself on and increasing in the knowledge of God …” the bathroom scales, sucking in his stomach. The woman thought to herself, “He thinks that he Paul prays that the believers will be will weigh less by sucking in his stomach.” prosperous in their walk with the Lord, and So, the woman rather sarcastically said to her hus- that their work performed in His name will band, “That’s not going to help.” And her hus- produce more fruit than it ever has! What band said, “Sure it will. It’s the only way I can would happen if 100% of ZBC would give see the numbers.” 100% of her energy and abilities for Christ this coming year? Often this time of year, after the overindulgence of the holidays, we make resolutions to change our III. Strength (vv. 11-12)—“Strengthened habits and our way of life. A resolution is defined with all power, according to His glorious as “a formal expression of opinion or intention might, for the attaining of all steadfastness made; the act of resolving or determining upon an and patience; joyously giving thanks to the action or course of action, method, or procedure.” Father, who has qualified us to share in the As such, a New Year gives us an opportunity to inheritance of the saints in Light.” start fresh and better ourselves. Have you ever resolved to begin exercising, to break a bad habit, Paul prays that the power of God will be to read through the Bible, or to pray more every evident in their lives for them to face the day? If so, you’re not alone. rigors of the future. Resolutions are easy to make and easier to forsake, but being There are some amazing prayers in the Bible: The steadfast means being just that! It means Prayer of Jabez (I Chronicles 4:10); The Lord’s being disciplined and courageous, it means Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13); and Jesus’ High Priestly being determined and focused, and it means Prayer (John 17); and then we come to Paul’s being deliberate and patient by realizing that Prayer for the Colossian Church (Colossians 1), God’s timing is always perfect. and this prayer is one that I have also prayed for ZBC every New Year. Paul’s prayer for the church What an incredible prayer was a prayer for … for the New Year! I. Sensitivity (vv. 3-4, 9)—“We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love which you have for all the saints; … For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding …” Paul first prays that they will “have full-knowledge of” God’s will. Paul did NOT want these believers to guess at God’s will for their lives, and neither does He want us to do the same. You can know what God wants you to do; you don’t have to meander through life hoping that your life is counting for something, you can know that it is!
