Thank you so much for your commitment to pray for the movement of God that is already among us. I encourage you to make this a daily habit - actually an hourly habit. As Jesus said, "Without Me you can do nothing." Let's continue to pray together in a spirit of dependence and surrender.
Today Pastor Ken and I met with the guys from our bank. Our loan application was rejected. But I am not discouraged about that - not even a little. In fact, as we were sitting there hearing the news, I started getting excited. I guess it's because I know this whole deal is out of our hands & that God will have to come through in a huge way. Everything about this Imagine Journey has the makings of a miracle. Humble beginnings, insufficient resources, a God-sized calling, and an army of hungry hearts. There's no place I'd rather be!
The VP of the bank is a believer and wants to help us find an alternate source for the funding. So he promised to make some calls for us and get back to me by Friday with some names & numbers of other lenders we can contact. Of course, the clock is ticking up against our June 30th closing date.
To say that we need to pray right now is an understatement. What we need is an all-out-every-member-explosion of prayer & fasting. The enemy wants to discourage us. But our calling is clear! God wants us to take our community for Him. We can't for a minute be sidetracked from our God-given passion & purpose to help people find & follow Jesus.
I'm asking you to join me in a time of heightened prayer & fasting over the next few days as we wait on God's answer for our next step. We will be proactive, looking down every avenue possible. We will do what we can do, and trust God to do what only He can do. Please pray with me for our upcoming Easter services to lead many to Christ, and for all that needs to happen with Imagine.
On the journey together,
Gabe
