New Year's Eve : A 'janus' moment

Looking back at 2017, Looking ahead to 2018

A common theme for God's people : SEEK HIS FACE

Centredness in Life ( Ps 27: 8)

Fluency in Ministry ( Mk 1:35 )

(II) PRAY 'BESEECHING' PRAYERS

Brokenness in spirit ( 2 Chron 7: 14; Dan 9:3 )

Fervency in desire ( Mt 9: 37-38 ; Ps 126)

(III) PURSUE GOD'S GLORY

Beyond your gain to His glory ( Ps 57:1-5 )

Strength to rise up & glorify His name ( Mt 26: 36-46)

Seek His face, glorify His name

What start can you make to ' seek His face'?
