To be free
To embrace life
To inspire and be inspired
That moment of realizing you are in a world full of things that are there but unseen, I had this moment a couple of weeks ago. I was standing in a room full of about 25 people and we were praying... the urge to run came upon me instantly. This urge was not of christ, but of Satan. Being held by one of my staff I knew it was time for that ‘urge’ to go. This as been one of the most challenging things of my life. Knowing that something you’ve had your entire life was about to leave you. I was excited, scared, but most of all fearful. But it was fear that was what needed to leave.
Fear of man is one thing I have struggled with my whole life.
This is an unseen thing.
God has created us to stand for what we believe in. In my case that is christianity. I have not always done this. Especially since I became a Christian. It wasn’t until I moved to Newcastle that I realized I needed to start living in the world but not of the world. This was a hard thing for me to do... Coming from a mindset of generally having enough money to buy clothes and having my own car, that had to change into stepping out in faith to believe that my phone bill will be paid every month and paying off DTS fees. This is just a small part of christianity.
Submit - to give over or yield to the power or authority of another
There is one key in relationships. Submitting. This is something I have not practiced until recently. But each time I fully submit myself to God something incredible happens. I’m not saying I submit everyday which is what I am trying to get to but for now, each step I take must involve God at the centre. When I got prayed for the ‘urge to run’ to leave something changed. It may have been unseen thing leaving but it left and I know from here on in it only matters what God has to say to me. Yes I will listen to my leaders, but most of all God is my only voice I hear.
Now live it out. Thats it isn’t it? Living it out. Living out something like this every single day is not as simple as it sounds. Shutting down every thought that is of your own and re-tuning into Gods channel. I still have the urge to run... I got it today in lectures but as soon as I spoke out that I was struggling with it, it left.
The power of your voice is so effective. A whisper can move mountains when we have the right faith.
Your voice is an unseen
Your faith is an unseen
Unseen things can be powerful..... Just make sure you practicing the right unseen things.
This statement is one that not many children/youth in todays culture can say.
Can you personally say it?
Do you have a million reasons to be here?
I know for myself I only now when I am twenty can say it and truly mean it.
Three out of five students are bullied. That’s 2,211,251 young people in Australian Schools. Thats almost twenty seven times an NRL Grand final crowd.
This is a real issue in today’s society.
So many people get fired up about this.
So many people just let the thoughts sit in their head about this issue.
We will be the generation or city to stand and fight it?
Its not about me.
Its about us.
Standing for something worth fighting for.
Have you seen it lately
The hope has left
But will I stand
and take it to them?
Will you forget?
who they are?
There’s a reason inside
We have a right to give this
Stepping up out of the crowd
Standing in the battle field
Is this who you’ve made us to be?
Broken hearts all around
Love is all that I’ve found
You hear the cry that is broken
You rescued me why not them?
Stepping up out of the crowd
Standing in the battle field
I wear the crown
That has made me who I am
Stepping up out of the crowd
Standing in the battle field
It doesn’t matter who you are
