Help me, Lord, to be faithful to your word.

Lord, I pray that the ripple effect of this gathering over these two days would be simply astonishingly beyond what anybody can think.

That the ripple effect for the nations, the ripple effect for this nation, the ripple effect

for tens of thousands of churches and millions of families and millions of

orphans would be beyond anything we think. We're asking you blow on this effort. We have

done what we can do, only you can do what needs to be done. So grant that you would come and make my little part in it now a significant

part of that ripple effect. I pray in Jesus' name, amen.

When God opens your eyes to see your own sin

and its ugliness, And when he opens your eyes to see the holiness of God, and therefore

when he opens your eyes to see the looming condemnation that hangs over you. And then

when he opens your eyes to see Christ and his all sufficiency in dying in your place to bear your sins and living

a perfect life to provide your righteousness.

And when with eyes wide open to your sin and the holiness of God and the horror of condemnation

and the all sufficiency of Jesus and the cross and the resurrection and

the righteousness and the atonement when he does all that and you are drawn to

him and you receive him as Savior and Lord and friend and righteousness and

sanctification and wisdom and redemption and treasure. and everything you do by faith in Jesus.

From that moment of the twinkling of an eye,

when by the work of the Holy Spirit you are saved,

that he is born again, eyes open, ears open, Christ is no longer foolishness or

stumbling but his power and wisdom and Savior and Lord and friend and everything to you from that moment on

everything you do you do by faith.
