Leading You N Truth

So I am really enjoying the study of my Disciple's Victory Book. It is week four and we are learning about praying in faith.

Each week we have scripture- memory verses and this week it is: "This is the confidence we have approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us- whatever we ask- we know that we have what we asked of him" ( 1 John 5:14-15). It's amazing how god speaks to us through scripture. My favorite part of this week was the three commuications God speaks truth to us.
1. Abide in Christ- Abiding in His word is a must. John 15:5 says " I am the vine, you are the branches, if you abide in me and I abide in you, you will bear much fruit. Apart from me you can do nothing. We as christians muct make sure that we have the word in us.
2. Abide in the Word
3. Allow the Holy Spirit to lead you in truth.- pg. 72 God reveals His will through His word but only to those who allow the Holy Spirit to lead them in truth.

When Jesus decended into heaven He sent  down the Holy Spirit to counsel us and protect us. We need to take advantage of what the Lord gives us,with out it we cannot achieve what God has in store for each and everyone of us.

God Bless, and see you next week with more of good learning.

A Event to Remember

When I first got there I was like " man this stuff is no good." Then as the time went by things started to see more of what it really was supose to be. Sometimes things that you will have to attend in life will never be for you, it's just your help is needed so that someone else can have a great time. I learned a lot of things his weekend, one imparticular; just because something seems bad in the beginning doesn't mean it won't turn out to be something great. Just think back when God excepted you, you were pretty bad off, but he cleaned you up and worked on you until people saw the new you that God created.

WinterFest ended up awesome and man it was amazing seeing over 3000 youth praising and worshiping God. They could have been anywhere else, but they choose to go to WINTERFEST to have an encounter with God. Also when doing certian things for Chirst it is no one man job, it for sure takes a team to do some big exciting, happy, and meaningful things for the Lord.

"Milk Does The Body Good"

So this week for I Worked out in the weight room and also did some running. Between the two I split  up the time. Each week I do 3 hours of working out to keep the body healthy and fit. Its important to do these things so that you can stay away from the doctor. In the beginning it will not be easy, but as you pase yourself through , the end results will be want you want. Making this apart of your life daily is a great health benefit not only to yourself, bu talso to the ministry you might be in someday or the family you will have someday.

Bye- Bye, see you next week.

Pray Like Elijah

" Don't carry your yesterday into your today, that will most likely affect your tomorrow."

So I went to the "Concert of Prayer" on saturday and I tell you it was amazing seeing over 200 people all on one accord serving God all in the same room praying and worshiping the King.

Now one of the speakers talked about James 5:14-18. He brought out so many great points, but verses  16-18 stood out to me. It says 16. There confess your sins to each other and pray fo reach other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. 17. Elijah was a human being , even ae we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18. Again he prayed, and the heaens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.

If we would start be like Elijah and be bold and prayed up then will what we are looking for from God will appear in our paths.  The speaker also talked about Elijah digging a trench dip enough to fill it up with Four Barrels of water three time each. Wow, that is a total of 12 times that water was pured into the trench that Elijah had dug. Sometimes when we ask God for something we just sit on our butts, and wait thinking its just going to fall out of the sky. Just like I mentioned before Elijah prayed earnestly that it would not rain. Come to find out it didn't rain on the land for three and a half years. We must have faith and believe that when we go to God for something in prayer that it will happen, but here it the thing, " in the mean time continue to do God's work and more until the time comes of your answered pray.

Remember This: "How ever deep is your trench, so shall be your harvest"

Taste and See

God give us all kinds of opportunities to minister to his people. I went to Feed My Sheep cecause I love cooking, and what better way to serve than to serve in something that you like doing. Through this experience I learned that its not all about me. Even though it was my sabbath sometimes sacrifice it better than just sitting around and relaxing. This could definitly be used inthe local church by feeding two meals in one setting.

God bless see you next month.

Get Healthy, Preach Longer

January 21, 2011

So this week I had to do 3 hours of personal body shop. So I decided to one day run for 1 hour, then  with my other 2 hours I lift weights and did other exercises (sit-ups, crunches, and bicycles, dumb bell curls, the curl bar). This might sound strange but, keeping this up will allow me to be healthy, loose weight, keep a good focus meaning not getting tired or sleepy so easily. Now my number 1 health benefit is exercising makes the body fit and stronger. Now don't only exercise in the gym but, also in prayer, witnessing, fasting, living the life of a Christ Follower, and most of all the WORD.

You are never to old to learn.......

Hey guys,

So January 16th, 2012 I returned back to school at Mission Baltimore. We have a lot of new changes and I am glad to be back. Today is Thursday January 19, 2012. This week I have learned so many new things, but the one that really stuck out to me was my Prayer 101 class with Tim Houston. There are 4 simple ways to communicate with God which are: 1. Talk to God with gut-level honesty, 2. Talk to God about everything, 3. Talk to God continually, and 4. Listen for His response. I am really glad I obtained this great information today. I will work every day to talk to God just like this method.  Sometimes we get so caught up in ourselves that when it’s time to properly pray and talk with God we forget to listen. As Christians we should set time aside for our talks with God and in that time just allow Him to talk to us. When did hearing from God, became a bad thing. Stop the quick prayers and just relax and be one with Christ to receive something from Him. See you next week to tell more about what I learned.

God Bless
