PLANNING A PARTY
Today's reading: Deuteronomy 26-28

"Afterward go and celebrate because of all the good things the Lord your God has given to you and your household. Remember to include the Levites and the foreigners living among you in the celebration." Deuteronomy 26:11 NLT

Go ahead, plan a party!

Purchase the decorations. Print off some great invitations. Blow up the balloons. Bake up some of your favorite party foods.

Do whatever it takes to get a real shin-dig in order. A grand ball. A huge celebration. A real wing-ding.

The guest list? Family. Church friends. Prayer partners. Your unsaved friends, especially those you've been witnessing to.

When will you have this party of all parties?

When you arrive in the Promised Land. When God answers your prayers, of course. On the other side of the valley. When you reach the mountaintop. When the rainbow shines in the sky. When the prodigal returns. When the habit no longer has a hold on you. When the unsaved are marked off your prayer list. When the answer comes.

When His promise is fulfilled.

Go ahead and start planning your party. Let your friends know they'll need to keep their calendars open. Buy a package of balloons. Do what ever it takes to remind yourself that He is going to answer, He is going to provide, He is going to give you plenty of reasons to celebrate!
