Prayer for 2001
" Our Father who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done,
On earth as in Heaven.
Give us today our daily Bread.
And forgive our sins,
As we forgive each one of those
Who sins against us.
And lead us not to the time of trial,
But deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the Kingdom,
The power and the glory.
Let all the people say Amen,
In every tribe and tongue.
Let every heart's desire be joined,
To see the Kingdom come.
Let every hope and every dream,
Be born in love again.
Let all the world sing with one voice,
Let the people say Amen. "
" After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed
be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive
our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen."
( Matthew 6:9 - 13 )
This song; " The Millenium Prayer " was recorded by Sir Cliff Richard in
1999. I still believe it is a message for the body of Christ in 2001.

Doing Something You Never Thought You'd Do?
Just as Jesus predicted, the day came. Jesus was arrested and
Peter got
into fear by the campfire as we find in Luke 22:54 – 62:
" Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's
house.
And Peter followed afar off.
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set
down together,
Peter sat down among them.
But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire and earnestly looked
upon him,
and said, This man was also with him.
And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them.
And Peter said, Man, I am not.
And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed,
saying,
Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.
And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while
he yet spake, the cock crew.
And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the
word
of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt
deny
Me thrice.
And Peter went out, and wept bitterly. "
Have you ever found yourself in a similar situation? You love God
with
all you heart, soul and being, but find yourself doing something
that you knew hurt Him? As you have read in previous issues of
" Covenant
Talk ", I once found myself in that position.
having been saved but away
from God, cursing God and
enjoying it. As you have read, I thought it was
" cool "
to say G.D. to as many people, including some " Christians "
too.
But even when I was running from God, He did not
leave me. He even saved
my life on a few occasions
even though I wanted nothing to do with Him
at the time.
And when I came to my senses and asked God to forgive
me for turning my back on Him, He was there with open arms
to welcome me back into relationship with Him.
