Times of Refreshing

Listen to the Audio

We all go through times when we need some refreshing. To refresh means to give new strength or energy, and to reinvigorate. 

These times of refreshing can come from the presence of the Lord, because he does not grow tired or weary. He has an unlimited inexhaustible supply of strength and energy. The apostle Paul said he worked harder than anyone, but it wasn't him, it was God's power that so powerfully worked within him. 

Acts 3:19-20 says...Repent, then, and turn (be converted) to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.

Isaiah 40:28-31 says...  The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. 29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. 30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 31 but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles;  they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

As we take communion let it be a time of refreshing from the presence of the Lord. As we break the bread let it be symbolic of letting go of any fatigue or weariness. And as we take the cup let it be symbolic of activating the refreshed strength and energy that comes from the presence of the Lord. 

I am praying for you.

Daniel

Here is how we do the Daily Communions...

2) Take a few minutes to examine yourself, plan your day with God, and listen. Here are some good questions.

1.  What were your wins over the last 24 hours?
2. Did you have overflowing levels of peace? It is either yes or no.
3. Did you have overflowing levels of joy? It is either yes or no. 
4. What do you know to do over the next 24 hours? List little things + things you feel God is prompting.
5. What is the most important thing you feel God is teaching you over the last 24 hour?

3) Meditate on the daily communion teaching for a few minutes.

4) Take communion. At our house we take communion daily and keep a box of matzo crackers and grape juice on hand. 

5) Execute your plan with a good attitude trusting that God is helping you. 

6) The daily videos and audios guide you through this process.
