Crossover!!!


It is a New Year, wow 2013!!! It feels like just yesterday we screamed hurray New Year, 2012, but another year has come and gone! What better time to talk about crossing over. As 2012 passed and we stepped in to 2013 we have had many things happen in our lives, some we would like to work on and improve and other things we promised our selves “never again!” For most students, specially those nearing graduation we have not only entered a new year but a new term full of important choices that need to made, most of which are time sensitive. As we Physically crossover from year to year we usually make a list of things we want to accomplish this year and right on top of the list “New Year’s Resolutions”. We plan for things of this world, we work hard and do all those things for our flesh, what about our soul? What  about things in the spiritual realm?

“Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.” John 5:24.  Now in the spiritual side of things, we are called to crossover from death to life, from dyeing to living! Yes, we always put this sorts of things off to when we are older or when we have lived a little. Do you know death can come when we aren’t ready to go to heaven, death can catch up to us when we are still in sin!  Even the second coming of Christ is said to come like a thief in the night, meaning we wouldn’t know when He will be coming back. So is it not better to always be prepared and live for God while you wait?? I know what you are thinking because lots of young people ask me this, “What a about living a little, what about having fun?” Living for God does not mean sitting in one corner on your own! Did you know that, “Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6. So what kind of life are you talking about? He is the life the truth and the light. People think when you live for God you don’t have fun, which is not the case, when you live for God your definition of fun might be adjusted but you still enjoy life! Most of all you have peace that surpasses all understanding and eternal life, well that is a plus too!!

Notes:
  • This Year is your year for a spiritual cross over, from death to life
  • Know that living for Him is much more satisfying than temporary happiness

  Stay Blessed<3

Sermon by Jentezen Franklin: Spirit of Python: Teaching Angels to Worship

When you are going to hell/trails and you worship is when you can teach the Angels to Worship :) 1) God is Spirit : the Spirit is looking for people who will worship Him in truth and In spirit. *In Truth: the right truth (Jesus : see John 14:6) * In Spirit: even during trails we need to be in the spirit of Joy, Faith, Hope and Love "God is spirit,  and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” John 4:24 2) God can make something out of nothing : before God spoke the world into motion it was nothing. He took what was nothing made it into something. He also hung it on nothing, there is nothing that holds the universe in place! “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?      Tell me, if you understand." Job 38:4 How and when can we teach worship to the Angels? Angels Vs. Us Angels 1) Angels have never been nor will they ever be under the course of sin 2) They live in a perfect place (Heaven) 3) The fir...

He is a Better Planner!

I did not mean to take the whole summer off from blogging it just so happen to be that way. Partly due to the numerous things that were changing in my life but more so due to lack of better planning/ time blocking. One of the highlights of my summer was becoming a Mrs. I never knew the weight the pre-fix would carry until I heard someone address me as such. I don't know about you but the Amharic word is, even more, weightier, "ወይዘሮ/weyizero"!. That was one of my life updates. Now that I said that, let's get to the meat and potatoes of my post... I have said before that I am a recovering perfectionist. Today, I stand before you confirming that statement still rings true in my life. I confess, somedays, I face some battles as if I had never before and get frustrated because I haven't gotten perfect at not being a perfectionist! You see the irony...   Tracing back where my want/need to be perfectionist came from, I was surprised to find out that it was linked to ...
