Editor's Heart for July 2024
The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
|
|
Many times and in various ways, Scripture admonishes us, "Fear not." Fear can be debilitating, causing us to make bad choices and do things we wouldn't normally do. I've heard it said that there are 365 admonishments to not be afraid in the Bible... one for every day of the year. 2 Timothy 1:7 says that God hasn't given us a spirit of fear. And the only type of fear that's acceptable in God's sight is fear of the Lord. So with all this in mind, it seems to me we should be grabbing hold of God's Word to help us overcome the fear in our lives. Allow God to reveal to you where fear has taken root... then allow Him to pluck it out! Let faith arise to overcome those fears! Lord, we place our trust in You. We decree and declare today that fear has no place in us because we have placed ourselves in Your hands!

Louisiana Call to Repentance
Breathe LIFE is partnering with Spirit Up Ministries to hit the streets on the 4th Saturday every month, starting on July 27, 2024, to bring the message of the Cross to the streets in cities across Louisiana. We'll be starting here at home in Baton Rouge until the Lord says it's time to branch out. A flyer will be posted soon. New Orleans gets a lot of attention because of their many tourist events, but Baton Rouge is the capital of Louisiana. There is truth in the saying: "It all flows down from the head!" Meanwhile, if you want more information on how to get involved, you know what we say... Reach out to find out!

|
Pray for the churches/ministries in the host city:
• For laborers to be sent into the harvest. (Matt 8:38)
• To return to their first love and have the fire of God rekindled.
• To have God’s heart for the lost.
• Renewed desire to proclaim the gospel in their own city.
• To not be ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Pray for the RC Team:
• All boldness and clarity to speak the Word of God. (Acts 4:29)
• Health and safety of the team.
• Spiritual preparation for the mission.
• Gentleness, patience, and humility to correct those who are in error. (2 Tim. 2:24-26)
• An open door for the Word to be preached. (Col. 4:2-4)
• To operate in unity and one accord as a team.
• For the world to see the love of God through their love for each other.
|
|
• For all financial needs for the mission trip to be met.
|
Pray for the lost in the host city:
• To receive salvation, deliverance, baptism in the Holy Spirit, healing. These things are the will of God, therefore we can ask with boldness.
• To break the spiritual blindness that stops them from seeing and receiving the light of the glory of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. (2 Cor. 4:4)
• Spiritual thirst. (John 4:13-15)
• Ears to hear and hearts to receive. (Luke 8:11-15)
• To receive the truth of God’s impending judgment and to realize that His goodness is drawing them to repentance. (Romans 2:4)
|
Things that are needed for every mission trip include hotel/motel rooms for team members, transportation costs (rental vehicle and/or gas), food, gospel tracts, other handouts, etc.
|
|
Please pray and consider sowing a financial seed toward mission trips.
|
|
The harvest is great, but laborers are few. Every cent you donate goes directly to
|
|
the project for which it was donated. Breathe LIFE staff are not paid salaries.
|
|
|
|
If you want to donate, reach out to find out what is needed and how to get it to us!
|
|
|
ALL cash donations go directly into supplying the outreaches or other ministry events. There are no salaries or personal expenses paid to any Breathe L.I.F.E. team members.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To sow a financial seed and meet a vital need:
|
|
|
|
There is ALWAYS a need...
We are ALWAYS assembling care packs to have available at all times for giving as led and able. All sorts of items are needed: wash cloth, wipes, soap, shampoo, conditioner, razors, deodorant, tooth paste, tooth brushes, socks, sunscreen, bug spray, dental floss, hair brushes, combs, lotion, grooming products like nail clippers and files, maxi pads, tampons etc etc etc… and Gospel tracts. Not only do these care packs distribute essential personal items to those in need, they open a door for talking about Jesus.
|
|
I'd also like to mention that as needs are brought to us, we post on social media to give all an opportunity to meet those needs. If YOU or someone you know has an immediate need, please reach out by any of the means mentioned in this newsletter. We thank those who have sown in the past. May the Lord bless you all for your generosity!

Testimonial from Great Nonprofits Registry:

I reached out for a need to get a room because I lost everything! I was leaving a messy relationship, I was starting over! I met this group of ladies at a hotel and got way more than a Room! I got Jesus! I’ve been clean, sober and reunited back to family for 6 months now! I’m a in church too! The founder checks up on me periodically and everything!
