New Wine, New Wine bottles

Like I said i wiil do my best to blog every Monday. I could not blog this past Monday because we were on a long weekend.
Luke 5:37-38
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.

We need the Word of God (New Wine) in our lives. It is the only way to survive in this God loved world. However in order for the Word of God to preserve us, we need new wine bottles. We need to allow the Holy Spirit to destroy all the things we have learned before we gave our lives to the Lord. The problem with us Christians is that we rush to apply the Word of God before we let the Holy spirit change us. We like being called Kings and Priests and yet not allow the Holy spirit to heal us of the pain, sadness, anger, envy, resentment, the list goes on and on. The result is that we have angry Christians etc. We have Christians moving around with pain in their hearts.

Repentance and deliverance are not a one time thing. It is a continual work of the Holy Spirit. Being born again is just the first step. We have to continually repent and let God deliver us from contrary spirits and behaviors.

It is only as we allow the Holy Spirit to do His work that we will understand what it truly means to be a Kingdom of Priests, because that is who we are, Kings and priests. We are royal, we belong to the heavenly kingdom. A true king does not run away from pain, but lets the Lord lead him trough it. A true king does not have to run around saying "I am a king". A true king does not have to buy things in order to look like a king. A true king does not need to prove himself. A true king is free, he is not pressured by circumstances and people. A true king is just that: A KING.

More next week Monday Lord willing.
A lot of things are running trough my head as we are preparing for our first meeting this coming Sunday, please pray for us. Come join us as we will also be starting to pray about a name for our fellowship.

Overcome Fear

Fear is very cunning. I believe this is an enemy to mankind. We can believe all we want in our minds that we have no fear, however it goes beyond that. Believing in just in your mind is not enough. We have to believe in our heart. Take a moment and trully search your heart. If you have fear about something acknowledged it. If we do not acknowledge our fears we will never be able to overcome and move forward. We can never overcome what we don't acknowledged.

Being Tried and Tested

I have made a lot of mistakes in my life and most of them have been caused by rushing into things. Don’t get me wrong I am happy and glad that my life turned out the way it did. I am glad that God never gives up on us (people) but continues to train them as long as we do not cut ourselves off. Spiritual matters are not supposed to be rushed into. There are a lot of trials and tests that we have to pass through before we can step into our spiritual calling. People will never really understand God’s path for us, and we as well do not understand the path that God has for us, He reveals it bit by bit because His thoughts and ways are higher than ours. God cannot be mocked and manipulated. God will never bend to our will but we are the ones who are supposed to surrender to His will. Our spiritual backbone is continually strengthened as we pass through different trials. I have come to have a different outlook on trials and tests. I have always thought that God is a cruel God by allowing...

Behold a New Thing

The Lord continually wants to show us new things in our lives. He is not a static God. He wants our lives to improve. He wants us to mature and if we are not careful we miss Him and become stagnant. What is the new thing that God wants to do in your life? Talk to him and find out directly from Him. Do not look at the new things that are happening around you and just join because remember the majority is not always right. If you feel stagnant, make a change, don’t allow yourself to be boxed up, be brave and make that change. After making that change be careful not to move backwards ask God to give you the strength to move forward. The way you used to do things before will definitely try to pull you back. If you think you made a mistake and did not hear God then by all means admit you were wrong and seek God for your next step. Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the d...
