LIGHTHOUSE OF HOPE
​NEWSLETTER

February 2018

Has there been a change?

     When we give our lives to the Lord, there is a big change—old things pass away; all things become new.
     When we fast, it will begin to surface all the areas that we have compromised and bring an awareness of sin in our own lives. How can we impact the world and be effective reaching the lost if we are not living the lives God has called us to live?
     We need revival in our hearts today so we can be filled with His Spirit. We need true Pentecostal power which can be summed up by this: having more of God’s love.​
We can start revival in our hearts by making these changes:
  1. Let go of all unforgiveness: We must forgive people quickly and allow the sweetness of God’s love to neutralize the poison of unforgiveness.
  2. Get healing from past abuse: Let the Lord teach us how to love people, even if no one in our past knew how to love.
  3. Go on a fast from negative words: Ask God to set a guard over our mouths to instantly convict us of unkind words and actions that quench the Holy Spirit.
  4. Stop bashing the church: Charles Spurgeon said, “You are no longer a lover of Christ if you do not love His children...Love Christ and you will soon love all that love Him.” God loves His church will all of its flaws, and so should we.
  5. Let God stretch our love: 1 Peter 1:22 implies that if we want to love people like God loves them, we will be stretched and challenged. That’s what God expects.​
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

​2 Corinthians 5:17
God wants to put His heart inside of us, but we must make changes and get rid of hateful attitudes, anger, cynicism, and let Him give us a kind, gentle, loving heart.
In Christ,
Pastor Tomson

Reminders

Thank you to all who participated in the Daniel Fast and dedicated 2018 to the Lord. Let’s continue to press in to the Lord, get all that He has for us, and surrender all to Him. As we move forward, we will see God’s promises fulfilled in our midst.
We encourage you to continue to pray for each of the ministries every day—Lighthouse of Hope Church, Westmoreland Christian Academy, Calvary Theological Training Center, and Lighthouse Global Missions. We need to seek God for revival in our lives, our church, and our nation.
Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10

Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard or me?
​Jeremiah 32:27
