JABUR 67:4

Pentecost is not the end—it’s the sending. Pentecost: A Liturgy for the Unreached invites you into the season after Pentecost, where ordinary days become Spirit-empowered opportunities to live on mission. Through Scripture, historic prayer, reflection, and worship, this plan connects the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to God’s heart for all peoples. As you follow the rhythms of the Church, you’ll be invited to pray for the unreached and live as a witness to Jesus—right where you are.

“May God make his face shine on you” is not sentimental cliché. It’s a powerful statement of the intimate relationship God wants people to experience in his presence. The blessing authored by God himself was audacious in the historical context in which it was given and it encapsulates a shocking (and wonderful) future hope of relating to God face-to-face. It calls us to reflect his shine into the world.

God can do amazing, incredible things in your life. His dreams have to become our dreams. Psalm 126 says that when the people of God knew they were free, they were filled with laughter and joy. The greatest joy and laughter you can experience is when you get to be a part of God’s dreams. Keep dreaming of what God can do.

Suffering successfully isn’t by chance. It’s a process facilitated by the Holy Spirit when we seek Him during the pain. We’ll pursue God’s Heart together, so there’s no parking in the dark season. Flowing, flourishing, and fanning into flames His Power onto others out of the ashes is the goal. God will make beauty out of those ashes! Your pain is not wasted!
