In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen. Genesis 8:5 This verse has a unique application to the first day of a new year. In this verse, the “tenth month” corresponds with our January; so the “first day” is our January first. January is the doorway to a brand new year. In fact, the word “January” comes from the Roman mythological figure “Janus”, who was the guardian of portals. Webster’s Dictionary defines the word “portal” as an entrance; arch over a gate. For the land you are about to enter and possess...is a land of hills and valleys with plenty of rain; a land that the Lord your God personally cares for! His eyes are always upon it, day after day, throughout the year! Deut. 11:10-12 Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours. You must keep His commandments. Teach them to your children. Talk about them when you are sitting at home, when you are walking, at bedtime, and before breakfast. Write them upon the doors of your houses and upon your gates, so that you and your children will enjoy the good life awaiting you in the land the Lord has promised you. This is a conditional promise in Deut. 11 (The Living Bible) As you keep this promise, you can enter on the threshold of the unknown year that lies before you; with confidence that you can go forth to possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves. No one will be able to stand against you. There is a great challenge in standing on the verge of the unknown. There are great doors of opportunity opening on the mission field. The adversary is also at work trying to close those doors in 3rd world countries for the Westerner. The enemy is attacking the mission work here at CMA as well. We want to thank you for your faithful support throughout the years and hope you will continue in the new year ahead. Without our partners in ministry we couldn’t continue the work of touching lives in 3rd world countries and sending monthly support to our missionaries. Thank you again for standing behind us with your prayers and support. IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTIn a effort to cut costs and be better stewards of God’s provisions, starting next monthCMA will be removing names from the monthly postal mailing list. If you do not receive a newsletter in February and would like to remain on the list, please contact our office at 918-396-4331 and we will be glad to put you back on. If you can receive our newsletter electronically, it will also help us cut costs. Please send us an email at hmredman@christianmissionary.org and we will put you on our electronic mailing list and remove you from our postal mailing list. Thank you so much for your help as we endeavor to spend wisely in the year 2012. |
