I think it's safe to say we have a new way of life and at the center of this new

existence is Jesus as he's never been before. He has been peripheral in our lives for far too long.

We had maintained a form of godliness. We attended church. We knew knew the rules we knew the words to the

hymns or the choruses we knew how to sit and stand at the appropriate times

without humiliating ourselves but in truth we really didn't rely upon God's power. We have imagined that our own

resources were sufficient. And without us initiating it, God chose 20-20 for an awakening awakening and I think as we are here as we gather at the end of

December of this year we can say we are awake we're listening.

Hey guys this is Alan Jackson Ministries. You can get the outlines for this episode at Alan Jackson.com slash podcast. If these messages help build you up or encourage you to be a more fully devoted Christ

follower, leave us one of those five star ratings. Hopefully that will help others find

out about them as well. Before we get started with today's message, this is a most unusual year, but this is also a very special

time of the year for Alan Jackson Ministries.

Here's Pastor Alan to tell you a little bit more.

It's Pastor Allen and 2020 is almost come to a conclusion. I know there's a yay God in that,

but it's been a really fruitful year, but together, standing together with your prayers, your encouragement, your support.

We have ministered to more people in this calendar year than any year in our history.

As 2021 opens, we want to continue to move forward.

We want to reach more people with the good news of Jesus

than in any time in our history.

I believe it's our assignment.

A generous friend of the ministry has made a million dollar match

available between now and the year end.

Every dollar you give will be doubled through that man's generosity.
