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: Refuse to Pretend

Be a Contender not a Pretender!  1) The time Jacob labored to get Rachel was nothing to him because of how much he loved her. Similarly when you love God all the sacrifices you make are nothing..if you truly love Him that is! "So Jacob served seven years to get Rachel, but they seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her." Genesis 29:20 Rachel is his first Love..She is representation of Jesus and His Love where as Leah is the  substitute ..not the real one. Rachel is the one where as Leah is the second option..not the best! Leah is Religion where as Rachel is Relationship with Christ Leah is Survival where as Rachel is Revival 2) Do not be Pretenders but Contenders "Dear friends,  although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share,  I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend  for the faith  that was once for all entrusted to God’s holy people."Jude 1:3 Do not be like people who come t...

When the Music Stops...

Hey Friends, I am trying to honour my commitment to make at least one blog post a month, so here goes July. That being said, please know that I am not posting for the sake of posting. I am trying to cultivate an active listening skill when it comes to each topic I share i.e. I will not post until I am convinced I heard from my heavenly daddy. I hope this is one speaks to you. :)   When the Music Stops... This marks the first time I talk about my hubby-to-be on this blog. This man is a Gem! He is a true worshipper, a man after God's heart. He also happens to be an anointed worship leader :) I am not saying that because I love him, I promise. The reason I bring him up though is because one of the very many conversations we have had about music is a good illustration to the point I will make later in this post. He mentioned that  it is common practice amongst some parents to hide their kids' musical instruments closer to exam seasons in the hopes of helping them focus...
