The Divine Edge of Opportunity

  • The Divine Edge of Opportunity

    I have been very enlightened by reading Sandi Patty’s new book called, The Edge of the Divine. It has caused me to think differently about the opportunities God sovereignly designs for us. He gives us the choice to step over an edge into something He has planned to work for our good. Romans 8:28. The good results honor Him. Revive has now stepped over the edge in accepting the responsibility to carry on ShareFest in Oklahoma City. This is a city wide, one-day event that provides an opportunity for hundreds of volunteers to work together to do good in our community by answering the various cries for help. The date for this one day project will be Saturday, April 16, 2011.

    In the meantime, we are asking you to pray for the Revive Board in this time of transition. There are many decisions to be made and many more edges to step over. Please pray for these 11 women to have the mind of Christ at every meeting; to work with joy and energy of the Holy Spirit, and to experience a great support team of people who will pray regularly. Let us also pray that many more church volunteers will be excited and willing to step over the edge and work when that time is opened for them. This will result in transforming our city with the love of God and hard working hands
    Genesis 16 tells the story of Sarai, Abram’s wife, who had an Egyptian servant named Hagar. When Sarai became impatient with waiting to conceive her promised child, she chose to take things into her own hands and give her servant to Abram as his secondary wife. There was an obvious lack of prayer. Hagar became pregnant and looked down on Sarai, despising her. She sent Hagar away, but not away from God. Hagar felt scared, lonely, distraught and abandoned. But The Angel of the Lord found her and told her to return to her mistress and then told her about the baby she would have. Hagar called Him, “The Living One Who Sees me.” Gen. 16:14 Amplified Bible.

    Dear Friends, The Living One Who Sees is the same today. Aren’t we thankful!!! He is our God who has promised to meet our needs. Phil. 4:19. He sees the Revive Board and their needs. He sees every situation in our City and hears the cries of those who feel scared, lonely, distraught and abandoned and who need help. He is preparing our hearts to be the answer to these dear people who need us. We are on the edge of a divine opportunity to make a difference in the lives of many people in Oklahoma City. God’s timing is perfect. This is a time for us to pray and to prepare our hearts and hands to be ready to share our energy, time and resources with those God guides us to. Let us be prayerfully excited about a new and divine opportunity to respond to the Living One Who Sees. He is creating edges for each of us to cross to serve others and honor Him.

    On the edge with you,

Devotion Dec 08

Thanks be to God for our Revive Volunteers!

You have given yourself and your time this year to many precious needy people in Oklahoma City. Our Revive Board sends a big heartfelt thank you to each of you!

This is my birthday month and when I received a beautiful card from a friend, I immediately thought of you! (You are on our minds a lot!) smile

I want to share with you the words on the card. Please take them to heart.

I can visualize those you have served saying these words to you:

“You are a Gift”
God made loving people to do His work on earth,
To give a hug or lend a helping hand.
He gave them words of comfort, encouragement, and cheer,
And tender hearts that care and understand.
God made loving people to show us day by day how far the wonders
of His love can go. And all the good they do helps make a better world—
A little bit of heaven here below.
You are such a good example of God’s love at work in the world…
It shows in the kind words you say and in the thoughtful things you do for others.
“God loves a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:7 NIV

We thank you because:
More people are smiling because you have personally blessed them with your unique gifts of love, time, compassion and wisdom.
More babies have been rocked and have new blankets!
More children are being tutored and loved!
More prisoners are being encouraged by the Word of God
and new friendships are being made; hope is being restored!
More orphans are being cared for!

Be blessed with God’s Word:
“As it is written, He [the benevolent person] scatters abroad; He gives to the poor; His deeds of justice and goodness and kindness and benevolence will go on and endure forever!”
2 Corinthians 9:9 Amplified

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Lovingly,
Carol Cutler
