Adoration

O Lord , our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.
Psalms 8:1 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.8.1.ESV

Confession

If a man does not repent, God will whet his sword; he has bent and readied his bow; he has prepared for him his deadly weapons, making his arrows fiery shafts. Behold, the wicked man conceives evil and is pregnant with mischief and gives birth to lies. He makes a pit, digging it out, and falls into the hole that he has made. His mischief returns upon his own head, and on his own skull his violence descends.
Psalms 7:12‭-‬16 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.7.12-16.ESV

Thanksgiving

I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord , the Most High.
Psalms 7:17 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.7.17.ESV

Supplication

On God rests my salvation and my glory;
my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
8 Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your heart before him;
God is a refuge for us.

Psalms 62:7-8 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.62.7-8.ESV

If you are unable to attend in person, we hope you’ll take time from your busy schedule to pray for our nation, leaders and revival in our churches.

We went to see the movie Free Solo. I am still processing the movie in my mind. The movie documents the first solo free climb up El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. Truly an amazing human achievement. There is a  contrast between the sheer size of the mountain and the tiniest bump on the face of the rock that Alex is able to use as the literal foothold between success and failure—falling to his death. There is even a reference to having to be “perfect” to succeed. And I figure there must be a transition to the Gospel in there somewhere! So don’t be surprised if some tract comes from this.

In 2018, Bezeugen Ministries distributed more than 700,000 Gospel tracts.  By the end of 2018 the ministry has distributed over 5.9 million tracts.  That’s more than the population of every US city, except one—New York.  But while we can easily be impressed with big numbers like how tall a mountain is, we also need to pay attention to the details of the one soul that God wants to touch with each and every tract.

Happy New Year!

The new tract in the Bezeugen Tract Club mailing is a new design of the Twenty-One Day challenge with a 2019 theme! This tract is a powerful way to introduce people you share the Gospel with to reading the Bible. It gets them in a habit of reading the Bible a chapter a day. As you hand out the tract invite the person you hand it to to join the 21 day challenge to read the Gospel of John. Take the challenge with them, then meet them for coffee or lunch weekly or when the challenge is over to talk about what they have learned! You can find the links to read, listen to or watch the Gospel of John online at the After Life Catalog site.

When I added the video to the 21 day challenge web site I started watching the Gospel of John each day. One day I was on the elliptical at the recreation center watching the video for John 16. When the video ended the auto-play started playing a sermon. Since I was nearing the end of my workout, I let it play and really got into the sermon to the point where I listened to the rest of it on my way to work, then listened to the rest of John over that following weekend. I later started looking into who I was listening to and found it is Skip Heitzig from Calvary Chapel Albuquerque. I’ve been truly blessed by his teaching. To go deeper, you may like to check out the series on John.

As I learned more about Skip Heitzig I found that he has a book, workbook and sermon series as an overview of the Bible called “The Bible from 30,000 Feet”. I find that many in the church and especially those new to the Bible don’t have a good high level understand of what the Bible is about. This material can help change that. Perhaps you’d like a better overview understanding of the Bible. Then you may like to check out the book. Or perhaps you like to listen to sermons, then this may be a good opportunity to jump in and listen to an overview of the Bible – from 30,000 feet. The series can be found online here. Since these are being presented as the current Wednesday series, we will also start posting them to the Pray Learn Go Facebook page each Wednesday.

Finally, we encourage you to be in the Word every day. Jesus says, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4) Feed your soul by reading His Word every day. Getting into the Word daily also helps with personal witnessing. The more familiar you are with His Word the more you can quote it, know it and witness to people. How about committing to read the Bible every day this year! If you’d like to join us we will be posting a reading plan to take you through the Bible on the Pray Learn Go Facebook Page. You can also find a number of other reading plans online or in the YouVersion Bible App.

Join us on Saturday, February 2nd for the 5th annual Bezeugen Tract Club Scavenger Hunt. The Scavenger Hunt is a fun way to try to complete all of the January Daily Tract Challenges in one day! Participate wherever you are and report your results online. Prizes are given out! For more information check any of the Bezeugen social media sites. Look for more details in the February tract club letter.
