Rain Shows Reign


The Rock’s recent agriculture opportunity is reminding us of God’s sovereignty. We are praying that the 20 acres we cultivated in cooperation with the agriculture department at Uganda Christian University will generate enough cash to help fund several of our scholarship students this fall.

We planted beans and maize and now we wait and pray for God to provide the rain and do the growing. He indeed is the Lord of the harvest who reigns over all. We can do our part correctly, but only He can produce the results.

The Lord is impressing upon us this is true in all aspects of The Rock ministry. We can teach discipleship and leadership to the children, scholarship students and business people of our flock, but only He can fill their hearts.

The documentary we are producing of God’s miraculous deeds in the lives of Africans we serve can win awards and accolades, but only God can use it to draw people to Himself and to prompt people to stand with The Rock’s passion for discipleship and leadership training.

We can pack the house with 1,650 people for our Steve Green Concert Event for The Rock Nov. 19 at Eisemann Performance Center in Richardson, but only He can make the event a Kingdom success.

Our radio show at 5 p.m. on Mondays on KWRD 100.7 FM in Dallas can share great stories and testimonies, but only He can use them to change and bless lives.
We believe God is calling us to a higher level of worship and praise of His sovereignty and might.

We want to praise Him continually and depend upon Him alone. One way we are doing this is through an increased emphasis on prayer. If God would call you to stand with us in prayer, please email me at marknoblin@rockoutreach.org and I can tell you of some exciting ways to pray and get involved.

And please pray for rain in Mukono Uganda for our crops! We need a good harvest to help raise a portion of the $13,000 required for the term beginning in September for nine outstanding young men and women in our leadership/discipleship scholarship program.
