In this fortnight, our focus is on financial targets. Let us remain faithful in tithes, be more liberal in offerings and invest in missions. To encourage you to stand for this purpose, I bring here a teaching about true blessing, for this subject confuses the minds of so many people. In chapter 10 of Prover-bs, verse 22, Solomon writes, “The blessing of the Lord enriches, and with it he brings no sorrow.” Some people imagine that wealth is only money, but whoever has money just has money. Wealth is something else, completely different. Wealth is wisdom, it is communion with the Lord. Wealth is the as-surance of the presence of God. “ In another version we read: “The blessing of the Lord God brings prosperity, and no effort can replace it.”
We have the privilege of living like this, blessing and being blessed. In Romans 16:20 we find a glorious blessing, which teaches us that we can and should bless our neighbor by using such words. And it would be glorious if you blessed yourself using these words: “And the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you. “Ob-viously, I do not mean something decorated, spoken in the wind. No. That should serve as an example. These words demonstrate the power of God, and when we recognize the power of the Most High and believe that we have been given authority by Him in Christ Jesus to speak words that shake the structures of hell, we understand that we have verbal weapons to fight against the attempts of Satan.
There are people who often open their mouths to greet others just for convenience. Inside, they are dying of hatred, of rage, with clenched teeth. By obligation, they say, “Good morning.” The blessing is more than a greeting. I want you, my beloved brothers, to understand that the blessing we proclaim is not just a verbalization, it is not just a sound. When we truly convey the blessing, it truly reaches the person. How often, when faced with situations, the enemy begins to say to you: “Look, He does not care about you, your life, your need, he does not care what happens in your life “. But all this is a great lie, for the Bible reveals to us that: “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.” Therefore, we need to bring to mind what can give us hope (see Lamentations of Jeremiah 3:21), because we know the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
How often do we meet a brother and he is sad, downcast, moodless, and when we open our mouths and say to him, “The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you,” he replies, “Amen.” The Word, which is alive, begins to function, to produce its fruits. “The Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make his face shine upon you and have mercy on your life. The Lord lift up your face and give you peace “(Numbers 6: 24-26). It is not just a gesture, a religious act. Not even! Because our faith is much more than a religion. We believe that things will happen, because so the Lord Jesus taught us.
May you understand this truth about blessing and be that channel of blessing. Reflect on what your life has been like if you have reached out to people with your contribution, both in sharing the gospel and in giving resources to the missionaries, the local church, those around you.
Good bless you!Pr. Márcio Valadão

Biblical reference: “Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.” (John 4.23)
Text explanation: Context: worship is part of the human being. Even if a person says he does not believe in anything, he still loves something: either himself, or science, even nothing. The Bible further states that we become like unto what we worship (Ps 115.8). This me-ans that what we worship defines our way of seeing the world, people and creation. And that is exactly why God requires exclusive worship, for when man adores anything other than God, this man takes a shor-t-sighted view of all things from where all the evil set up in the world comes. So, how should worship be?
First: em espírito. Adorar em espírito significa que o local de ado-ração agora é em todo lugar. Qualquer chão que você pisar e começar a adorar se torna santo. Não há lugares mais santos, não há mais res-trições físicas para a adoração. Adorar em espírito significa que o Pai aceita sua adoração onde quer que você esteja: na sua casa, no seu quarto, no banheiro, na escola, no trabalho, na piscina, no parque. O
templo de Deus é você.
Second: in truth. While worshiping in spirit means that worship takes place everywhere, worshiping in truth means that everything we do must be done for the Lord. Whatever we do is a worship of God. From cleaning the house, washing the bathroom to even high-risk sur-gery, everything should be done as a way to please God. Worship is not singing. Singing is a way of praising God. But worship is a Christian li-festyle. To worship is to present our lives as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God.
Application: put your daily routine on paper, without needing to go into too much detail. Meditate on every part of your day if you have in fact worshiped God. Try to improve your worship every moment and sign “S.D.G.”(Soleo dei Glorie) in each part that has already been able to do so.

Study: Jesus, the greatest offering!There is no more willingness to offer than God Himself. The Word
tells us that everything comes from the Lord and it is from His hands that we give it back. Therefore, all we have is an offering of God Himself to each one of us. Love and kindness are part of the character of God and are attributes that can not be uprooted, and therefore our God is so ge-nerous. The Bible teaches us that He was able to give up His own Son to die in our place and that is the greatest proof of God’s love. He offered
of his first fruits to redeem mankind. It is up to us to accept this sacrifice and to live in just retribution, contributing each day to the work of God, to all that we are, and even to our tithes and our offerings.

Egypt is the largest Arab country, being a republic. Its wealth comes from agriculture. Economic growth has come from a percentage of trade and industry being placed under private ownership or control, but many Egyptians live in poverty. The country lives a political disorder. People have been waiting for justice, economic growth and less corruption.For over a thousand years, Egypt was a Christian-majority country, the church remained spiritually strong and full of life, but persecution of Christians has increased in the last 25 years, mainly by Islamic extre-mists. Many die or are tortured in prison.
Egypt has fought the Islamic insurgency since 2013. On November 24, one of the most lethal attacks of its kind occurred in the recent his-tory of the country that left Egypt in shock. The bombing and shooting
left more than 300 dead and 100 wounded. It is not yet known who is behind this attack, but our mission, as Christians, is to intercede for pe-ace in the nation. • Pray for a just constitution, good laws and wise rulers who treat all Egyptians fairly; • Pray that Christians will stand firm in their faith and lead a godly life before their oppressors; • Pray for the families of the victims of the terrorist attack; so that the Holy Spirit may bring consolation to the hearts and recovery to the wounded..
Operation World
The environment of the streets of London there has been more of the same. It is that the cult of youth of the Lagoinha London, on Fridays, has ex-trapolated the four walls of the church and arrived on the tracks of the En-glish capital. Titled “Echo Movement”, as the senior pastor of the Lagoinha London, João Osmar Cruz, it is a movement that seeks the presence and knowledge about God, worship and evangelism. “At the last meeting, the testimony of a young man of transformation and the love of Jesus impac-ted many lives. This is a cry for revival of a youth who understood the role of sharing this love to the four corners of the city and the nation,” he said.
With the aim of also impact the nations, the Lagoinha Nations has done cults missionaries in our churches in the capital and big Belo Hori-zonte. The aim is to show the importance of engaging in missionary work. The ministry, in partnership with the charisma Theological Seminary, also send students to the International School Starting this month. If you want to contribute

The Bible shows us the path of prosperity. Do you want to know this path? In Leviticus 19 we find 22 principles that point out to a prosperous life. And based on these principles, we need not only to examine them, study them, but, above all, put them into practice in our daily lives, in a sense of pros-pering not only spiritually, but also as human beings. When you read this passage you can understand that the prosperi-ty goes beyond having things. It goes through all the princi-ples laid down in Leviticus 19. These principles established and formalized in truth, justice, love and holiness. So John prayed: “Beloved, above all, I hope for your prosperity and health, as well as is prosperous your soul”. (3 John, verse 2). This is the path of prosperity:
1. Respect to parents;2. Give your backs to idols;3. Do not profane what is holy;4. Do not be stingy;5. Do not steal;6. Do not lie;7. Do not be false;8. Never withhold the wages of the employee, purposely;9. Has affection and care for those who are limited in
their physical condition;10. Seek the justice for all;11. Do not be gossiper;12. Do not keep bitterness in the heart;13. Never make of the revenge a project of life;14. Do not have ambiguity of behavior;
15. Do not take pleasure without compromise, which brings tragic consequences;
16. Never resort to spiritual experiences which are an abomination for the Lord;
17. Do not create in your descendants the culture of “Bra-zilian way”;
18. Do not forget that rest is an essential part of life;19. Always treat the stranger with consideration among
the people;20. Be gentle with the elderly;21. Do not want anything with the darkness;22. Be meticulous in weighing, measuring and dividing.
You may be thinking: “What does that have to do with pros-perity?” But I will answer: everything. Many people think that being successful is to have money and it is not true. These prin-ciples do not only lead us to have a life directed by God, but also enables us to live a better life with us, with our neighbor and with our world; that is prosperity. It is the will of the Lord. You may have had so many difficulties in your lives? It seems that the prosperity does not come, does not flow, and does not reach you. Who knows these principles are being neglected? At this moment, the Lord wants to fill your life and make it overflow from the grace of the Father. As John, this is also my prayer: “Be-loved, above all, I hope for your prosperity and health, as well as is prosperous your soul”.

75 NEW PASTORS ARE CONSECRATED IN BETIM
CELEBRATING THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE LAGOINHA BAPTIST CHURCH
Meet our new pastors:
Special and unforgettable. Thus was marked the night of Wednesday (29) in Betim Lagoinha, when the regional pastor Rodinei Medeiros con-secrated 75 new brothers to the pastoral ministry. The consecration ce-remony was attended by the pastor Márcio Valadão, the intercessor and pastor Ezenete Rodrigues and also of the pastors who are part of the lea-dership of the other Lagoinha Sectional. After the moment of praise and worship, Pastor Ezenete cried out to the church, declaring the power of the Lord in behalf of our city and interceded for the deviants. Then Pastor Már-cio brought a brief message, and prayed for the lives of the new pastors. “My gratitude to God is not only because you have heard to the call, but also for saying ‘yes’ to the Lord’s call, “he said. Soon after, the shepherds received a beautiful Bible and together they declared the inherent power of the Word of God. The consecration was consolidated in a beautiful mo-
ment of anointing after the pouring of oils on each pastor’s head.Also at the ceremony, leaders of other regional pastors, released a
blessing word in the life of the newly ordained. Pastor Naira Paula shared the experience she experienced at the time. “It was a memorable night in our regional history. I felt an anointing of deliverance and disposition flowing in the church from the moment of praise. Both the new conse-crated men and the rest of the present pastoral body were renewed by a strong anointing. Pastor Márcio inspires us with his serenity and passion for the call. May the Lord use it with great grace these men and women of God. “ To end the ceremony dozens of surrendered lives said yes to the Lord, to the glory of God.

FAMILY
HEIRS OF THE PROMISEOur church visits families that have just had a baby
Among the different ministries of our church, there is the Parent’s School, which belongs to Lagoinha Family and aims to instruct, contribute and support parents on caring and educa-ting their children, from pregnancy to adolescence. Based on Biblical principles, several courses are offered for parents and children. In order to help families more and more, the Parents’ School now counts on the ministry “Heirs of the Promise”, whi-ch consists of visiting families with newborn children to share a word of love, bless, pray for the baby that has just arrived and for the parents and to be present on such a special moment.
Pastor Joaquim Souza, leader of the Parents’ School Minis-try, with his wife Carla Aguilar, comments on how important this visit to the family is: “When you visit a family that has just had a baby, they feel embraced and loved. It is an opportunity
for parents to receive a prayer and to feel supported and bles-sed at this time of the child’s arrival. As it’s written on the bibli-cal text of Psalms 127.3, “Children are a heritage of the Lord, a reward that He gives”, we understand that the arrival of a baby is a gift to the family and the Lagoinha Baptist Church wants to celebrate this moment with the parents. We want to know your family”, he says.
So, Mom and Dad, if you are members of our church, have just had a baby and want a visit from our pastors and workers, get in touch and make an appointment.
Call the Lagoinha Family Ministry and schedule a visit to your
home: Pâmela +55(31) 3429-9400 / Pastor Joaquim Souza +55 31

It is time to take stock of everything we have done, to evaluate our performanceagainst the goals proposed at the beginning and a good time to celebrate the union with thefamily of faith. Nothing better than starting 2018 on our knees in prayer, consecrating our life
to the Lord, thanking for all our deliverances and giving our next 365 days to God.
On December 31, at 8 pm, worship in all the Lagoinha neighborhoods and cities.Get Involved!
Why do so many women experience situations that cause
them distress, dissatisfaction, embarrassment and even
constraints, when they often do not have to go through
all this? In search of answers to this questioning, Cristina S.
Vargas came across a prominent woman in the Scriptures,
who had the wisdom to protect herself properly, through
the observance of certain values. Protect yourself,
woman! discusses principles that the author considers
"protection fences" that will help women to
avoid such situations in their lives.
