A New Score Do Not Miss It!

January 01, 2020
By Dr. Terry Flowers

Greetings in the matchless, mighty and magnificent name of our Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST! As we move deeper into 2020, we have an opportunity to reflect on God’s decision to not have last night be our last night. He left us here at this appointed time.

This is a time to reflect not just on a new year but a new DECADE. In fact, for most of us, it is a NEW SCORE! You recall Lincoln’s famous delivery “four scores and seven years ago,” four scores represented 80 meaning four units of twenty years.
 
Today and this year join me as I thank God for the NEW SCORE.  I ask His forgiveness for all the times when I have not looked deep enough into His Blessings to fully embrace how awesome He has been. This is not just a celebration of another year. 
 
Join me in welcoming more of God’s awesomeness over our lives and families. Let’s invite him to shock us in outrageous ways with His Grace, Mercy, and Favor.
 
Let’s thank him for this SCORE and more to come! 
  
Seeking Christ’s Outrageous Revelations Evidenced 
 
I pray unto you many heavenly scores of all forms to come.
