2023 April Newsletter

Greetings from The Keystone Project and All Our Disciples in the Nations!

When the angel Gabriel was sent by God to reveal to Mary, the mother of our Lord Jesus Christ, that the Holy Spirit would come upon her and she would conceive a son miraculously even though she was a virgin, he said to her, “For nothing will be impossible with God.” Mary responded, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word” (Luke 1:37-38). When we have a kairos – supernatural and revelatory – encounter with God, we know that whatever He is calling us to is not impossible. He will bring to pass that which He has spoken because He is not calling us to do something but revealing to us what He is doing. What was about to happen to Mary was something that Mary could not do herself. The conception of the Lord Jesus was a work of God’s Spirit in Mary’s life. Mary’s part was to believe God, not to try to do what only God Himself could do. She did not (and could not) make the conception of the child happen. She believed God, and her faith released the work of the Holy Spirit in her. God’s promises are not secured through human effort. If you believe God, your focus and affections will be on Him and not on His promises. I encourage you to turn your faith toward Him, believing that He is God and that He will bring to pass that which He has promised in your life. Our part in His work is to respond to Him with the words, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.”

In Jesus’ name!
