Life After Death (Part 1)

Death, it's a topic that we don't hear about often, but what I want to do with this series is teach those who don't know what the bible says about death. So, why don't we start with what the culture tells us about death.

One thing you might constantly notice about death, as the world sees it, is that there is a fear surrounding it. The world tells us that because we don't really know what happens after we die, we should fear death. But you wanna hear a secret? I really know what happens when you die and I really believe it. I know, without a doubt in my mind, that when I die I will go to Heaven, where I see the Lord face to face and get to see all of the people whose lives I've changed. When you think about that, what do you have to fear? The only people who are afraid of death are the people who don't know where they're going when they die. Our culture doesn't want us to think about death until the last minute, why else would they try to sell us products to look younger. I want you to get atleast one thing from this post and it's this. You will die one day, don't hold off thinking about it and instead spend everyday knowing that your time here is temporary. Finally, I want to end with a quote from someone who has influenced my life immensely, and I never even met him.

"When you learn how to die, you learn how to live"

Our Battlecry

Everyday thousands of people cry out, people who need love, people who need hope, people who need a saviour. The question is, who is going to tell these people that there is a saviour, who brings both love and hope? Who is going to show these people that they can be all they ever dreamed they could be? The answer is, us, all of us.

We are all called by God to touch the lives of the lost, to heal the sick and the broken, to show his unfailing love to all of the world.

This message goes out to all believer's, God has big things planned, but if we don't rise up and follow him, they'll never get accomplished. God is planning a movement that will take the world by storm. For this movement to succeed, he needs believers that are devoted to his cause. So, I beg of you, do not wait, be all God has called you to be NOW!!!
Start pursuing the plans he has for you. Start living the life he's called you to. Take your place in this movement not later, but now!

Do not be mistaken, this is not a blog post, this is our Battlecry!
This is not a blog post, this is the spark that will start a cultural movement, that Satan himself can't stop.
This is not a blog post, this is a revolution!

Pride (Part 3)

"Pharaoh said 'who is the Lord, that I should obey him and let Israel go? I do not know the Lord and I will not let Israel go."

Exodus 5:2 (NIV)

I'm sure most of you reading know the story of Moses and his constant attempts to free Israel from the hand of Egypt. If you read on it say a number of times that Pharaoh's heart was hardened each time Moses asked for Israel's freedom. Pride is one of the many reasons we harden our hearts to God.

Pride usually come from selfishness, the Pharaoh was being selfish when he decided to keep the Israelites as his slaves, because he didn't know God, he didn't fear or humble himself before him. If we humble ourselves and go after everything God has for us, we set up the foundation to make a real change in the world.God doesn't want us to be prideful, because he knows that if we become to occupied with ourselves there will be no room for others, or even him!

So, I urge you to keep your pride in check everyday, always make sure your doing the things God wants. Always remember that serving others keeps pride from controling you, and what more could you ask for?
