THE SUNDAY - FEBRUARY 25th
THE POWER OF PROPHETIC ACTS
Stepping into the future through prophetic actions.
Image
Promptings from the Holy Spirit can be very powerful in our lives.

Throughout the pages of Scripture we see men and women moving in obedience to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes these things were strange.

Can you see Moses throwing his staff on the ground and it turning into a serpent or Agabus taking Paul’s belt from him and binding his own hands and feet and saying “This is what is going to happen to the man who owns this belt."? These are just a couple of prophetic acts among many we see in Scripture. I believe God still leads us to do prophetic acts. I was recently led to do a prophetic act and since then some amazing things have happened.

I look forward to teaching this Sunday on THE POWER OF PROPHETIC ACTS. Hopefully this will provide us with a better understanding the role of the prophetic in our lives. Join us this Sunday morning at GH at 9:30 and we’ll learn and grow together. 

Please plan to come and bring a friend. Consider sending this to someone you know whom it would encourage. Invite them to come with you.

WEEKLY PRAYER
This Tuesday Night, Feb. 24, at 6:30 p.m.

Bless the Ricketts upon their return to Thailand!
Image
As you know, we had to cancel this past Wednesday night's service which means we were not able to have the THAI DINNER to support Thailand missions. We will not be rescheduling this event due to scheduling conflicts. So, let's all pray and come Sunday with a special financial gift to give to the Ricketts family for their return to Thailand. This is an important Kingdom opportunity that we want to be a part of. We will have a special receptacle at the church for this on Sunday. Thank you for your generosity to help touch Asia with the glory and power of God.

The response to the weekly prayer of blessing I started emailing out a month ago has been surprising. I am so happy that so many people are agreeing with these prayers. Thanks to the many of you that are also sharing the prayer with others. I have been touched by the stories of families and friends gathering together to hear and agree with the prayers. This week I added a page on our church website to permenently host these prayers so people could go back to any of them anytime they needed to do so. Here is the link to that page -

We plan to focus each month throughout the year on a missions project. You can see what is coming up and what we have already done by viewing our missions page on our gracehouse.info website. CLICK HERE FOR OUR MISSIONS PAGE.

Join our Prayer Watch!

Thanks to all of you who are a part of our daily prayer watch. Please email me at eddie@gracehouse.info and let me know if there is a particular day each week or a certain date each month you would like to commit to praying for our Grace House family. We believe that as we agree and pray unceasingly for God's protection, provision, and power on our families we will see His kingdom come and His will being done.

MORNING WATCH - Pick an hour between MIDNIGHT & NOON
EVENING WATCH - Pick an hour between NOON & MDNIGHT

Several of our people have taken the same day each week when they participate in a morning or evening watch of prayer for Grace House.

Others have selected one, two, or three sessions during the month. Our goal is to have at least two people committed to each morning and evening watch every day of every month. Some days there may be more praying which is great. So please let me know if you can sign up.
HOW TO KNOW WHEN OUR SERVICE HAS BEEN CANCELED.

There are unavoidable times when we may have to cancel our services due to weather conditions. When this happens we will do our very best to get the word out.

After our leadership makes such a decision, I will immediately send out an email broadcast to my weekly Pastor's update list (If you are reading this, then you are on it). Mikki will send it out to the prayer needs list as well. We realize that a few of our people do not get email so we try to contact them by phone or text. Of course, if you know someone who doesn't do email or have internet capability, then please help us get the word out to them. When time permits, we sometimes will let WFIX 91.3 fm know as well so they can announce it. Here are the other ways you can find out most quickly.
