Brighter Hope Christian Church - BHCC

What a GREAT DAY it is for BHCC, for we are on the horizon of a NEW DAY. This day brings excitement and opportunities to all who take part in this journey with us. It is not going to be easy, but the reward will have an Ephesian 3:20 blessing upon it.
Notice when God spoke to Abraham about Isaac (the Promised Seed) He DID NOT ask Abraham for any help. God ONLY wanted him to believe that he could do anything, but fail. The Bible says: One of them said, “I’m coming back about this time next year. When I arrive, your wife Sarah will have a son.” Sarah was listening at the tent opening, just behind the man. Abraham and Sarah were old by this time, very old. Sarah was far past the age for having babies. Sarah laughed within herself, “An old woman like me? Get pregnant? With this old man of a husband?” God said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh saying, ‘Me? Have a baby? An old woman like me?’ Is anything too hard for God? I’ll be back about this time next year and Sarah will have a baby.” Sarah lied. She said, “I didn’t laugh,” because she was afraid. But he said, “Yes you did; you laughed.” When the men got up to leave, they set off for Sodom. Abraham walked with them to say good-bye. Then God said, “Shall I keep back from Abraham what I’m about to do? Abraham is going to become a large and strong nation; all the nations of the world are going to find themselves blessed through him. Yes, I’ve settled on him as the one to train his children and future family to observe God’s way of life, live kindly and generously and fairly, so that God can complete in Abraham what he promised him.” (Genesis 18:10-19 MSG)
In this season it is imperative that the Leaders (Eph. 4:11) become so sensitive to Holy Spirit that we will both hear and know the voice of God. This is important to train Christ’s followers in skilled servant work, working within Christ’s body, the church, until we’re all moving rhythmically and easily with each other, efficient and graceful in response to God’s Son, fully mature adults, fully developed within and without, fully alive like Christ.
