The Alone...Me (part 7)

Well finally its just about over...and I won't be alone anymore... next week I fly to London and will join up with my beautiful wife and we will holiday together in Europe.

in the meantime I want to tell you....that I have survived and I have changed while she has been away.

I know that God has been changing Jules also, what a re-union we are going to have together , just getting to know each other (the new us) when we rejoin next week.   woohoo

yesterday at our church, was kind of like a sign of what has happened inside me...

you can check out the preaching at this following  link, if you are interested and have a spare half an hour.

Right now, in me, God is refining me, renewing me,shaping me, rebuking me and correcting me, and its all good.

it needed to be done....  sigh.

I am determined..
I am decided..
I am deliberate..
I am dangerous...            to the enemy (at least)

for I know the pain of defeat and the distraction that the devil brings and it has defeated me in the past, but I am now over it and back on track, and am  so defiant in the face of my adversity.

I know full well I am going to cop it after preaching the message I just preached, but was totally gob smacked by the support and unity amongst the church , called Salvos 3064.

I was so blessed yesterday as my leadership team gathered around me, after the service, laid hands on me and prayed for me and my family, to be protected and blessed,     and we are.

and then there was last night when God just moved so powerfully amongst us,  I almost audibly heard Him say  "just watch what I can do",.... it actually made me giggle, when I saw Him move...   He is awesome.

so what lays before me, only He really knows... but what lays ahead of our church will be outrageous as He moves even greater still over the next month or so....

I will blog again, maybe even while I am away,...but maybe not too....I will be resting it up and enjoying the break, I promise to share my pics on facebook and share my journey as well so you can join with us in some small way...wish I could take you all with us..  ( truly I do....hahahah)

stay focused on Jesus.
keep praying and believing
keep reading your bible
keep worshiping and

make sure you get to church on Sundays and gather with like minded people...

God is Good.

What got us here, will not get us there.

I have been thinking about the this for sometime now. We as TSA have come along way, but yet...there is a long way yet to go, and everything we have done up until now, has given us the results we now have. It's insanity to think, that if we keep doing the things we have already done, that we will get a different result. All that we have done so far, in previous weeks, months and years and even decades have given us the results we are seeing right now. If we think for one moment that things are going to change, by doing the things the same way as we have already done them, then there may be a need for seeing a therapist. do things the same way, get the same result. change the way you do things, get a different result. the problem with this, is ..... that many think everything is honky dory....all "A OK".... and that's where the real bottle neck actually is. Because the truth is, (and many don't want to acknowledge the truth), that we are not winnin...

Salvo style.... God is here.

For me these days, life is super busy. I used to think I was busy before, but now...my goodness. Now, so that it's clear, I am happy being busy with the Kingdom stuff, and would never cope if I was blatantly bored in ministry, I am simply not wired in such a way. Life is good. My ministry is good. My God is good. For those of my readers who think, that maybe, I think I have arrived..... wash your mouths out...there is no way I think that, last week my head was in such a spin, I literally had to walk out the office and go home. I went for a walk to clear my head and got drenched when it started raining, and it was really good for me... I gained perspective and focus and the next day in the office was a little more sober. It's a busy place and much is going on.... it does pose questions for me, which over time I will seek clarity from the senior leaders here....and I guess where needed, I will tweak where and when I can. in the meantime, I am just doing what I feel...

Psychics

Went onto a Facebook thread this week that involved people seeking a psychic for whatever reason. I understand that the world is seeking answers,  and I have the answer but the answer I have people don't want to seek. VERY  FRUSTRATING . now as bad as it all is, what makes it worse, WAY WORSE...is that some of the people in our church were on there making appointments.   Now, before you throw your hands up in the air and ask what kind of church this actually is... we run a new church here at Craigieburn and it has loads of new baby Christians, and many also, who are just here checking things out...not committed to Christ yet, that's part of the journey of planting a Church..... so it is expected that there will always be people who are on various stages of growth. If you are reading this..and you have been doing this psychic thing... you don't need to do it, you need to seek Jesus and His Holy Spirit, it will be better than anything and everything else yo...
